SPEAKER_06 (01:03):
Stevie Lee, I don't like that version of Arch
Manning.
He's got a little swagger, he'sgot a little attitude, and he's
aware of the cameras.
He was taught well by hisgrandfather, his dad, brothers.
If anybody questions that thatyoung man's ability, his fire,
his personality, his will, Imean, now it's all coming
(01:26):
together, man.
You cannot question him rightnow.
SPEAKER_03 (01:29):
Absolutely not, man.
He felt really comfortable beingback in the effing crib.
That was fun, man.
It was fun to watch that firsthalf.
SPEAKER_06 (01:40):
Oh man.
SPEAKER_03 (01:42):
Those three quarters.
Three and three and a halfquarters.
Let's say that.
SPEAKER_06 (01:47):
Three and a half quarters.
Yep.
And that was impressive comingback home.
I mean, they were gone for 42days from Planet DKR.
I thought for 11 a.m.
that was about as good as youcan get the day after or morning
after Halloween.
There were a lot of uh hangoversin the building from the night
before because Halloween meanssomething to adults now.
(02:09):
It's just not for childrenanymore.
We all celebrate the right way.
SPEAKER_03 (02:15):
Absolutely.
SPEAKER_06 (02:16):
Right.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_03 (02:16):
The right way?
What is the right way?
SPEAKER_06 (02:19):
That is for interpretation by every
individual, every viewer,everyone.
It's different.
I can't answer for everybody.
It's just different.
How do you interpret it?
How did you and Summer, how didyou guys make Halloween fun at
from an adult point of view?
SPEAKER_03 (02:36):
Oh, we just hang out with the neighbors, man.
I didn't have any kids at home.
Oh, that's right.
SPEAKER_06 (02:41):
You're you're going you're almost empty now.
So you guys had, I'm assumingsome type of um beverage
cocktail was consumed.
SPEAKER_03 (02:51):
I had a little bit of bourbon, but that was about
it.
SPEAKER_06 (02:53):
That's okay.
And if you ever need any ofthose cocktails, I can tell you
where to go.
Uh, it's our guy Dave Ramirez upon Far West Boulevard.
(03:26):
Stogie in his mouth, but uh hewill treat you like a guest, not
a customer.
Uh man, we've got a lot to talkabout.
We've got to honor one of thebest uh Longhorn fans ever,
great human being.
He's a graduate of McCallum HighSchool here in Austin, Texas,
the great Scott Wilson, andwe've got a special former,
(03:47):
well, VIP of the Man Cave forLife.
He's coming back in to visitwith us along with our guy,
Playmaker83.
We've got a big show, man.
Nine shows remaining until wehit half a thousand Stevie.
Man, that's unreal.
Um, what do you think, man?
Is it no better time than to getit rolling, right?
SPEAKER_03 (04:07):
Let's ride.
SPEAKER_06 (04:08):
Let's ride, baby.
SPEAKER_01 (04:29):
Offense is starting to click a little bit.
We got to continue to press andfinish games, but um, probably
the way we play today.
Maybe the concussion helps.
SPEAKER_06 (04:39):
Stevie, I never thought I would put these words
or that sentence.
Maybe a concussion helped.
Uh, and he smiles.
I love how he humors it all.
He that all of them don't listento the media, but they do, they
are aware of what's being said.
But your thoughts on that whenhe said that and then having the
performance.
(04:59):
I mean, because all of us, allof those who are Longhorn fans
or any fan base who has had akey player or quarterback,
anyone on concussion protocol,you're on pins and needles
throughout the week becauseyou're being evaluated on what
you can and can't handle.
And then he was definitely agame time decision.
SPEAKER_03 (05:18):
Man, what it's funny that I haven't heard him say
that until just now.
But what's funny is one of myseatmates next to my season
tickets actually looked over andhe said, Have you ever seen a
concussion help somebody?
So yeah, man.
So that's that's the talk rightnow.
But man, he he came out on fire.
(05:40):
Uh, I said though, it wasn't theconcussion that helped.
It is these guys here was goingon in the media, and people was
talking about um uh Caldwell alot.
So um he knew that he had to uhdo something to silence that
talk because um maybe he waslike, you know what, I'm QB1 and
(06:00):
I need to act like it.
SPEAKER_06 (06:02):
That's it.
I like that.
That's exactly.
And then then you had the we'reat nine games in, they finally
got the right offensive linecombination.
Cole Hudson, the right guard,Connor Robinson, the center.
I mean, I don't think peoplerealize how hard that is when
you're rebuilding an old lineand try to mix and match and
find out who's gonna respond.
And they have, and now, youknow, this is that November part
(06:25):
where they literally have to winevery game to get into the CFP.
And up next is Georgia, but abye-week now, and that's what
we're gonna talk about as wehave this bye week.
Uh, all the great things thatwere accomplished despite uh the
near collapse in the fourthquarter, Texas dominated.
But hey, before we move forwardand bring in the playmaker83,
(06:48):
follow us on each of our socialmedia platforms.
And Stevie, we love all of oursponsors and our partnerships we
have.
But for this series, man, one ofthe best people, the Hargrove
family out of Shreveport, yourhometown.
They've migrated westward andthey have great, they are deeply
rooted here in Austin.
Hargrove Roofing, and and you'reone of the faces, including
(07:12):
Mason Shipley.
But I think I gotta give you theedge over Mason.
SPEAKER_03 (07:17):
Only because I've been here a little bit longer,
man.
SPEAKER_06 (07:19):
Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03 (07:19):
I joke about how I how did I get an NIL deal 20
years out of college?
Those are my guys, man.
They are the most pro-burntorange roofing company around
here, man.
So shout out to Hargrove and uhBilly Hargrove uh and the family
over there.
Hargrove Roofing, know who's onyour roof.
SPEAKER_06 (07:38):
Man, that's a great transition, you know.
And uh Mike Adams, he's got alot to live up to to even uh to
get up to Stevie.
I want to hear Mike Adams saythat.
Let's bring him in.
(07:59):
Mike Adams, what's up,gentlemen?
I don't know why it's taken methis long to even ask, but how
would you, what's your version?
How would you give a shout outto Hardgrove Roofing?
Man, Hardgrove Roofy, know who'son your roof.
That is really nice.
That's really just like that.
(08:20):
Just like that.
Hey, 34-31.
At one point, Texas was rollingyou knew Pavia in that group,
both sides of the ball.
They have uh a really good team,but I I didn't think that they
would storm back.
I don't think anyone did to makeit interesting on an onside kick
with about a minute left.
(08:40):
What's your you know, wrap it upin like three bullet points?
What were your thoughts?
SPEAKER_05 (08:47):
You know, I think uh I it started out pretty good.
I mean, touchdown first play ofthe game, and uh you know, Arch
is looking more and more, youknow, like like he's supposed to
be looking, and you know, the Oline look good, and defense
actually, I mean I thought theywere gonna pitch a shutout, but
I I think Vanderbilt may havelearned something about
themselves because I reallyhaven't seen them play with with
(09:10):
such an urgency like they didthis past game.
And obviously it had a lot to dowith the score and they were
fighting back, but I thinkthey've seen now, man, maybe we
don't have to be a three yardsin a cloud of dust, you know,
dominate the time of possession.
Man, because Paddy put up somenumbers.
Like, like, like he actually putup some numbers to match, you
know, the the the Heisman, youknow, the the stats that are
(09:33):
associated with being in theHeisman conversation.
I mean, I guess we can talk itup to us being maybe a little
relaxed.
I don't want to think that.
You know, I I'd rather thinkthat you know they made a run,
you know, we made some stops andand got the unsized kick, or at
least it went out of bounds, andthat just kind of ended it.
I don't I don't want to thinkthat we were just sloppy for a
(09:55):
whole half of football.
SPEAKER_06 (09:56):
Yeah, yeah.
I I I have to give you know,swing the direction of the
conversation uh to Stevie'sside.
Uh Mike Adams, to your point, toyour side, because you were the
receiver great.
Eight receivers for Texas hadmultiple receptions, but Stevie,
uh, the six sacks of Diego Paviaum and 10 tackles for loss, and
(10:20):
he and no one's really talkingabout enough, but Ethan Burke.
And I cannot believe he's asenior out of Westlake.
This one right here, I justwatch him get through the line
and what he's doing now later inhis career.
(10:46):
Amazing.
Stevie, I'll give you the honorsbeing the defensive guy.
What are we seeing here?
I mean, we have there's so manyplaymakers on that defense, but
what are we seeing right thereto allow a guy nothing against
Ethan, but there's so many guysgetting in on the act of either
tackles for losses and QB rushesor sacks.
SPEAKER_03 (11:05):
Yeah, so on that particular play, I did watch um,
he was very violent on contact,right?
So the offensive line tried toput his their his hands on him,
and he shot you can't really seeit from that shot, but he uh he
shot their hands off of him andwas able to get separation from
them and then shoot that gap forhim to uh get back there.
(11:27):
And he he did it a couple timesin the game where he actually
missed the sack, and Pavia isjust his feet got him out of
that sack.
But um he he's um he's violentto the man.
Um and then um get under controland get back there to the
quarterback.
I I like the way he's evolving.
Um he's going to be a like hehis game is it hasn't plateaued.
(11:50):
He's still learning and um andlearning how to pass rush.
I I love the way he was he wouldget off the ball, get to the
man, and fight that man and gotoff of him and then got into the
backfield.
Uh that was really cool to me.
SPEAKER_06 (12:04):
I mean, and it helps the offense with field position.
Um Mike, I wanted to ask youthis there that controversial
two-point conversion.
Everyone, no one likesofficials, but I don't know.
I I think the quality ofofficiating across the country,
I don't think it's SEC.
We said the same thing about Big12, but there were four
(12:26):
perspectives or angles of this.
And and uh everyone's seen this,but I want Mike to get your take
on this.
I don't think we there we go.
Well, I mean, I don't think anyof us can say there's any info
(12:49):
or anything that we see with ournaked eyes could that could say
that was definitely a two-pointconversion.
The overhead view, the nose ofthe ball may have scathed the
bottom of the white line, thegoal line, the plane.
What what are what what were wewhat do you think they were
looking at to determine that?
SPEAKER_05 (13:10):
Man, I don't know.
I mean that that was I andthat's a play that I missed, but
when I saw the replays, I'mlike, how how in the world did
they let this happen?
And then it just feeds into allthe conspiracy theorists of
referees being in on the gameand betting and all the
scandalous things that are outthere, man.
It's it it was weird, it wasweird, and you know, maybe it's
(13:34):
just one that they missed.
You know, I I don't want to bethe negative guy again.
I want to give them the benefitof the doubt, but man, that was
sketchy.
SPEAKER_03 (13:43):
That that that was that was pretty sketchy, but
yeah, and you're supposed tohave definitive evidence,
correct?
And I didn't see definitiveevidence on that.
Um I I don't I didn't like thatcall at all uh as I watched it,
you know, um afterwards.
And I know what you're talkingabout, Sean.
(14:03):
I didn't see it.
People thought that people theymay have thought it grazed the
line, but I wouldn't have calledthat grazing the line.
I that just did not be in and itand it feels icky, you know what
it feels like?
It feels like waking up on umMonday morning and and watching
NFL football and somebody tied,you know.
Icky that that didn't feel rightto me, and so that giving them
(14:26):
that two-point conversionwithout a definitive answer of
yes, he got that ball over theline.
That felt icky to me.
And in my mind, I was like, hewent to the headset.
What are they talking about?
You may have asked, What's theline of this game?
All right, let's just give themthat two points.
SPEAKER_05 (14:43):
Hey, they they it's time for the SEC and all the
other conferences to go to theuh the the the openness of the
ACC when they're uh replaybooth.
I mean they they got itbroadcast, telecasted right
there in front of the nation tosee, so you can hear everything.
So, whatever underlying motiveor agenda that we think may be
there, they they can't do itwhen we all are privy to those
(15:05):
conversations.
Absolutely, right?
SPEAKER_06 (15:08):
Well, unrelated, and and when I discovered it, this
was kind of a late ad to theshow.
But I I think Stevie, uh DiegoPavia, I love watching him play.
Um, certain people like,dislike, kind of like Johnny
Manzel, but you can't questionhis ability.
But I think in your section, youwere sitting near his brother,
(15:29):
right?
SPEAKER_03 (15:29):
Yes, I was.
SPEAKER_06 (15:31):
So I saw the video.
Can you confirm or deny was hewhat how was he acting?
What did he instigate all that?
SPEAKER_03 (15:40):
100% obnoxious, man.
Even before the game, he had theflag turning around to the
crowd, throwing up his the theVandy with Pavia flag, yelling
at everybody.
And you know, in my sectionwhere I sit in section 31,
playmaker, I don't know whereyour your seats are, but uh
(16:01):
alumni seats are typically rightthere 31 and 30.
We're all and uh he's right downin front of us, and you know,
we're kind of looking aroundlike, man, you know, celebrate
your brother, just turn aroundand shut up.
You know what I mean?
And so eventually he and thefamily goes down towards the
50-yard line.
So we're right there on the goalline.
(16:21):
So they go down towards the50-yard line, and dude, they
were just obnoxious the entiregame.
His brother, uh, I guess someonesaid that there was his mother
also there.
And um, it was golly, I don't, Idon't, I don't like talking
about people that's not betweenthe lines, but they were man,
(16:42):
just to put it frankly, theywere just classless.
It was just classless.
You were in somebody else'shouse, uh, acting a fool like
that.
No one was in their face, theywere in our face, you know, and
it was it was not it was notcool.
It wasn't cool at all.
And that that's all I reallywant to say about it, but um
back in my younger days, I'dhave probably gone down there
(17:04):
and it's like shut the healthup, you know.
But it was bad.
Like it was it was actuallymaking me upset that you don't
you don't you're not celebratingyour team, you're you're just
around here taunting us, tryingto taunt us.
So it felt good to whoop whoopup on them a little bit.
SPEAKER_06 (17:20):
You wouldn't miss Pavia's mother, though.
I just want to give her thatcompliment, by the way.
I wasn't gonna say it.
So Texas moves on.
We got a a bye week this week atGeorgia, Athens.
That is one of the mostbeautiful stadiums uh
atmospheres I've you know seenin person.
(17:41):
I've never been as a fan justfor word purposes.
But I'm just gonna beshort-lived on this topic.
I think next week will be abetter opportunity to revisit
this because there are threegames remaining on most of the
SP program schedule.
But I think with this confidenceand this Texas is developing,
(18:04):
this Texas and AM game the nightafter Thanksgiving, I think is
gonna have significantimplications on a lot.
CFP and who plays in the SECChampionship.
And I don't, I'm not trying tojinx it.
Could there be an opportunitythat if X or Y being Texas or AM
(18:27):
wins or loses, whoever wins orloses, it could be a rematch the
following week in the SEC titlegame.
This is all in play.
Um I don't know if you guys wantto talk about it or just wait
till next week.
SPEAKER_03 (18:40):
Well, let's um let's get past, let's, let's uh man,
let's get past Georgia first.
Let's just let's let's try toget Georgia on the schedule or
Georgia game in and see where weare after that.
Like that I think it may be alittle bit premature to talk
about the Aggies right now.
SPEAKER_06 (18:57):
I gotcha.
SPEAKER_05 (18:57):
Yeah, only I will say though, um and man, that's a
crazy scenario.
I hadn't really thought aboutthat one.
Yeah, I I think AM is a lot forthe CFP.
Um that may be a game when weplay them, we we may need to win
that game to to to be in the mixfor the CFP.
So and obviously, like you'resaying, man, we we still got
(19:19):
Georgia, still got Arkansas.
So man, we got we got a lot ofwork to do.
We we can't afford to lookahead.
SPEAKER_03 (19:24):
We do got a lot of work to do because that's uh
going into Athens in between thehedges, which is a beautiful
place.
I went there as a recruit.
Um but um then you gotback-to-back rivalry games.
Yeah, because believe it or not,Arkansas is a rival of ours.
They they hate us more than theylike themselves.
(19:46):
And and um and they couldthey're coming in our house, and
then we gotta come back to playthe Aggies who's on fire right
now, too.
So we got a tough road ahead,and they need we need to um play
what's in front of us right nowand not think about anything
else.
SPEAKER_05 (20:01):
Yeah, this this this Georgia game coming up, it's
essentially a playoff game.
Yeah, 100%.
Like we we that's how we gottalook at it, that's the approach
we gotta take.
And because uh, you know, if weif we were to lose that game,
man, that that puts us on theoutside looking in for real.
We we would need a lot of help.
SPEAKER_06 (20:23):
A lot of help.
And it's you know, with OUbeating Tennessee and Knoxville,
um that that that they're rightthere, and then the polls they
have OU above Texas now, right?
That went on the road, uh, andTexas Tech, who uh I don't know
a lot of people realize Kansas,they had had trouble
(20:43):
historically beating KansasState, they beat them on the
road.
Uh, I'm gonna post a video theirfield goal kicker.
It Mr.
Field Goal hit the upright, theloudest doink.
I mean, it was I'm sure youcould have heard it outside the
stadium, somewhat amusing, butmy my sense of humor is a little
awkward.
I find things amusing that mostpeople don't.
(21:03):
Uh, but but uh you don't have togo far.
I think the biggest upset, in myopinion, occurred in Dallas.
(21:45):
So Miami's done.
Done.
CFP hopes is done.
First home win versus a top 10team at home for SMU since 1974.
Unbelievable.
Awesome.
Yeah, that's awesome.
SPEAKER_05 (22:01):
Major mile, man, that was huge.
Big win.
And big win, you know, talkingabout the ACC, man.
I mean, you know, Miami, theirmargin for error was already
kind of small, and with themlosing that game, man, that that
just sets up uh SMU's a threat.
They've only lost once, man, andin Congress played the last
couple years.
I mean, they're pretty proven.
(22:22):
And you know, Louisville has togo down there in a couple of
weeks, you know, after comingoff a Clemson game that that you
know we have to play.
So SMU's right in the thick ofit, man, along with like four
other ACC teams.
SPEAKER_06 (22:35):
Margin for error is very small, and we'll see that
just in case you're not aware.
Uh MA Sons, they both play forthe Louisville Cardinals.
Uh Deuce playing at quarterback.
And speaking of Louisville,where are they in this uh our
own version of we have powerrankings, not ratings, power
rankings, so to speak.
(22:56):
Power twelve.
What's it look like now?
SPEAKER_05 (23:01):
You should be in that top twelve, I know.
SPEAKER_06 (23:03):
Well, let's go, let's check it out.
(23:26):
Don't hate on me.
They're right there.
They're right there.
SPEAKER_05 (23:33):
Kick his ass, I I I would actually take OU out.
I would take Texas might be inthe top 12, but I would place
both of those teams belowLouisville with the one loss.
That's fair.
That is fair.
And and and Virginia's there.
I Vanderbilt, I'm moving themdown.
I mean, if it weren't for a latesecond half slide, they might be
(23:57):
ranked in the 20s or somethinglike that.
It's like they they battle late.
But I think uh that that thatclose for that that poll is
pretty close to the AP.
The AP poll has uh you know, OUin Texas ranked in front of
Louisville.
Um, I think Virginia's ranked infront of those guys.
I I think the bye week, I wasthinking about this.
I think the bye week might hurtus this week, Texas.
(24:20):
You know, I've seen that in thepast.
If a team didn't play, uh youknow, other teams so so it
wouldn't it wouldn't site me tosee Texas fall a spot next week,
just just for the fact thatthey're not even playing this
week.
SPEAKER_06 (24:32):
It doesn't matter.
Uh, but the only poll thatreally matters is the CFP, and
that'll be revealed on Tuesday,that tomorrow as I cover up's
face.
Um guys, one of the one of theeveryone's favorite human beings
who's been around the program along time.
Um, I thought what UT did waspure class.
(24:54):
Uh Scott Wilson, uh, when Texaswas on their way to the Florida
game, uh, as soon as he got offthe plane, had a massive heart
attack, stroke.
I I've I've heard both.
And he he's been at the he wasat the University of Florida
Medical Center for all thistime.
And I believe it was Halloween.
(25:16):
He he passed away, and it'saffected a lot of people because
this guy has been around, um,especially baseball for me
growing up.
Uh the the original Wild Bunch.
Um Scott was one of theirringleaders and just a good
human being, and then trulydevoted to the University of
Texas, uh, a lawyer, and he's anative Austinite.
(25:39):
And I don't know, I'm 74 yearsold, he passed away, and this is
how he was honored at UT.
SPEAKER_00 (25:47):
All home and away.
He is Scott Music with anincredible legacy of that.
SPEAKER_06 (25:54):
We show my second Scott's favorite song, the eyes
of and we bring in Mark Pina,uh, also alias, occupy left
field, the king of, the CEO ofbrother.
Thanks for coming back in.
It's been a while.
SPEAKER_04 (26:14):
Yeah, absolutely.
I appreciate you having me backon, Clinch.
SPEAKER_06 (26:17):
Absolutely, brother.
Anything for you.
Um, the reason why obviouslyyour relationship with the Texas
baseball program and who youare, and just a just a solid
human being, but you also had agreat relationship, and you have
a great way of communicatingthings such as this and what he
(26:39):
meant to not only baseball, butto this community, and also just
remembering the great humanbeing he was.
SPEAKER_04 (26:47):
Yeah, Scott was uh he was one of one, Sean, and
there's there's never gonna beanother Scott Wilson again.
Uh I would venture to guess hemay be the most deep diehard
college sports fan anywhere inthe country, right?
I mean, you talk about hisstreaks going to how many
baseball games?
Almost 1,600 baseball games in arow.
(27:09):
1600 baseball games 2,000.
Yeah, it's insane, man.
Just the the streaks areincredible.
His uh his dedication to UT andall of the various programs uh
was just second to none.
And on top of it, he was justsuch a fantastic person, man.
He knew everybody, everybodyknew him, he remembered
(27:31):
everybody's names.
Uh, I think, you know,especially with the baseball
program, there isn't a mom, adad, a brother, a sister, an
athletic trainer that ScottWilson didn't know, man.
He was just a very specialperson uh that that tried to do
everything he could to supportthe program, to support the
teams, and uh he's gonna bemissed.
SPEAKER_06 (27:53):
Um, Mike, Stevie, just to give you an idea, well,
I mentioned his age, but uh thisis a guy that attended baseball
games at the old Clark Fieldwhere they would skip class, and
that's over there by the BassConcert Hall, or it was.
But even before that streak ofbaseball games, there were
several in which he traveled to.
He was at the College WorldSeries dating back to the 80s,
(28:16):
all of them tailgating, and thenit's unbelievable.
And if I remember correctly, andMark, uh, you may be able to
correct me and tell me I'mwrong, but I think he's been to
every football game since EarlCampbell played.
SPEAKER_04 (28:31):
Yep.
SPEAKER_06 (28:32):
Wow.
SPEAKER_04 (28:32):
That is absolutely true, has not missed one, man.
So uh he uh he went out doingwhat he loves for sure, you
know, and and being out on atrip.
Uh, I think, you know, Sean,biggest biggest regret for us
and and for his friends is thatyou know he passed away in
Florida so far away from fromall his friends and and people
who would have loved to bit uhbe there to support him.
(28:54):
But uh again, man, he he wentout doing what he loved.
And and then I think if youwould have asked him how he
would have gone out, it wouldhave been getting off a plane to
go watch the horns playfootball.
So special too.
Yep.
SPEAKER_06 (29:07):
Well Stevie or Mike, do you guys remember Scott at
all?
Did you from your day?
SPEAKER_05 (29:13):
I I mean I I I've never had a pleasure of meeting
him, but I but definitely seeinghis presence, you know, all
social media and just knowingthat name.
I mean, I I've seen that name,and I wish I could have could
have met him.
I mean, he's you know, like likeMark said, probably the the the
best.
I'm gonna call him super fan ofany alumni you know in the
(29:36):
country.
I with you know Scott and theguy from Ohio State comes to
mind.
The guy you know that we alwaysyou know those two, man.
But just the vehicle with thehorns on it and him traveling to
Omaha.
I think that's when I first likereally uh started kind of paying
attention.
It may have been like the O5World Series or or one of those
series, but but man, he's uhyeah, certainly had a great
(29:58):
impact.
On Texas sports.
And yeah, he's gonna be missed,man.
Gonna miss seeing his presenceat those games and them just
showing him whenever there's abig game and all that sort of
thing.
SPEAKER_06 (30:12):
Stevie, I think that orange that burnt orange caddy
may be up your alley.
SPEAKER_03 (30:17):
It might be, man.
It might be.
I don't know if that's not theolder one that I want.
I want the 64, so it's a littlebit longer.
But yeah, I remember uh the carand uh I'd never had a pleasure
of meeting him like him, but umknew of him.
Um and and knew I knew thatrecord of uh not missing a
football game.
I did not know about basket, Imean uh um baseball, but I knew
(30:40):
I knew it was about football.
Um but yeah, man, it it's soreal, it's really cool, and
that's the spirit of collegefootball.
Um uh fans like that.
Um hopefully we don't lose thatin this new NIL and revenue
sharing um um uh what era thatwe're in.
So um, you know, it's it's hatsoff to him, you know.
(31:04):
Prayers go out to the family andjust praying for healing energy,
man, because uh um that ispretty cool.
Like he's known for followinghis horns and uh you know passed
away following his horns.
That's that's that's prettyneat.
SPEAKER_05 (31:21):
And and to be honest, man, there's not a lot
of you know no schools that haveuh these types of
representatives.
I I mean UT is is one of thoseschools.
I mean, um, you know, besidesScott, and and there's tons of
them that that probably don'thave the the recognition that he
does, but man, they'refaithfully again, right?
You know, each and every week.
(31:42):
I mean, they travel.
I mean, you look at our teamswhen we go to the NCAA
tournament or or the CollegeWorld Series or whatever, our
fans are there, man.
They're there.
That that's one of the reasonswhy you know it'd be hard for
any any player to come out ofhigh school, you know, even if
it is the nil there.
I mean, I mean, it's just somethings are gonna be constants,
and the support that UT has, youknow, and different alumni, man,
(32:05):
that's always gonna be aconstant.
SPEAKER_04 (32:06):
Yeah, and then Clinch and Mike, one of the the
great things about Scott, right,is he gets that recognition for
football baseball.
But right, dude, it was crazythe way he supported every
program on campus.
Uh one of my funniest storiesabout Wilson is I called him
about 10 years ago.
I don't even remember what timeof year it was, but it wasn't
during baseball season.
(32:27):
I just called him to check onhim to see how he was doing.
And I go, hey man, what are youup to, Wilson?
He's in Minnesota.
And I go, what are you doing upin Minnesota?
He was at a University of Texaswomen's golf tournament.
He drove to Minnesota by himselfto go watch women's college
golf.
That's just how much of a fan ofthe University of Texas as he
(32:50):
was.
And anytime he had anopportunity to get in his car
and you know, drive across thecountry to go support a program,
he was gonna do it.
So it's not just the the bigsports.
He was there for everybody,never missed a volleyball game,
never missed a softball game.
I mean, he was everywhere.
Uh so uh truly one of a kind.
SPEAKER_06 (33:08):
One of a kind.
I it just I just realized one ofmy favorite stories, and this
may be the first time that hereally left a mark on me.
And I I think I tweeted aboutit, but I must have been 88 or
89.
Um, I was a young guy, I had alot of hair then.
Um I'm entering ditch fog frombefore the renovations on the
(33:32):
third base side, and that was Ithink the week or two after OU
and Oklahoma State were both inthe big eight.
And they got it's called Vedlam,they got into a brawl.
I mean, OU, the Sooners Cowboyswere they were benches clearing
brawl.
(33:52):
And when OU came to Austin, itwas either for a non-conference
series or maybe it was aregional game.
I can't remember.
Scott Wilson and the Wild Bunchstarted from the third base
side.
He had a full boxer's robe on,boxing gloves, uh, the two Wild
Bunch members with water pels,and he's walking around like
(34:15):
this around the concourse beforethe first pitch of the game, and
they were rising off becausethey mark it, just like you guys
do out in left field.
Um you guys study, and you guysknow who your uh the opponent
is, especially the left fielder.
The beautiful thing here, occupyleft field is an extension of
(34:36):
the it's the modern day uh wildbunch, and that's what's cool
about it things evolve.
And do you did you ever hearthat story, Mark?
SPEAKER_04 (34:45):
But I have heard that story, I've heard so many
stories, but that's one of thegood ones that people like to
tell.
Absolutely.
SPEAKER_06 (34:52):
Oh my god.
Well, Daniel, we got to figureout another excuse to get you on
here because uh and because youyou're part of another podcast,
too, correct?
SPEAKER_04 (35:02):
Yeah, do uh with a couple of other guys, Zach Sim
and uh Sean Redford, and we wedo uh podcast during baseball
season.

until uh late January,hopefully.
(35:23):
We'll see how that goes.
SPEAKER_06 (35:24):

I knew that was gonna happensomehow.
Yeah, that's true.
Hey, Pinya, we're gonna have youback.
Um, Adam, stick with us.
Pinha, we're gonna go to breakand just a quick we're gonna
show Wilson getting anopportunity because I have seen
him at funerals, uh, churchservices, whatnot, and he got to
(35:47):
do this at one of the baseballgames a couple of times.
He sings like a well-trainedchoir boy to these guys in Texas
as we hit the break.
Much love, Pina.

And then I like to kick a roofroof paint.
That's who's on your roof.
The bully is a cozy Austinoriginal bar and grill that
feels like home.
Boulevard Bar and Grill nestledinto this Northwest Hill strip

SPEAKER_02 (37:28):
I love every single one of you.
I can't imagine a better way togo out than the public with this
group.
SPEAKER_06 (37:45):
You baseball guys, you guys are bigger baseball
guys than me.
The Dodgers claim their ninthWorld Series in Clayton Kershaw,
all 18 seasons in LA, 11-timeAll-Star.
I think it was what two time CyYoung winner, but native of
Highland Park in Dallas, Texas,man.
(38:05):
What's your thoughts on theDodgers?
SPEAKER_03 (38:08):
Uh hats off to him.
I I was um I was rooting forthem because I'm a Magic Johnson
fan and he's part of theownership group.
Um, and you know, it's just umwell I I learned a long time ago
that baseball was America's bestuh pastime, and you just can't
let the American pennant go upto Canada, man.
(38:29):
So we have people in America,man.
So I'm I'm happy that theDodgers uh pulled it out.
SPEAKER_05 (38:37):
Yeah, that's kind of why I changed my opinion.
At first I was on the uh Drakeand Kendrick Lamar angle, but
then I came in my senses.
I was like, nah, I want theDodgers to win, and I'm a big
Yankees fan, and yeah, theDodgers and Yankees they have
their own little little pass andrivalry going, but I I'd rather
see the Dodgers win than the uhBlue Jays.
(39:00):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_06 (39:02):
It was a great series, it was great for the
game, and I I haven't seen thefinal numbers on ratings, it
really doesn't matter.
That was great baseball, greatbaseball for now that we're in
November, it used to be theOctober classic, but and it was
it was I'm sorry, let me uh saythis, man.
SPEAKER_03 (39:18):
It was really fitting for a game seven World
Series to go into extra innings.
That was yes, it was a storybookum uh ending, you know.
SPEAKER_05 (39:32):
So yeah, the Dodgers were losing, yeah.
SPEAKER_03 (39:35):
They were losing and came back.
And so for it did Kershawannounce retirement.
Was that his retirementannouncement when he was talking
in the locker room?
SPEAKER_05 (39:43):
I I believe so.
I think I think he alreadyannounced it like prior to okay.
They knew that he was going touh this is gonna be his last
year.
SPEAKER_03 (39:51):
See, you can't even write that movie right there,
man.
That's one screens, you know.
So that's that's perfect forhim.
Great for the Dodgers.
Um, I know he's gone through upsand downs, being with her for 18
years.
Uh new ownership, going throughthat, new GMs and coaches and
things like that, but he wastried and true, and then in his
(40:14):
career, in uh it was in Toronto,but with the Dodgers in extra
innings in game seven.
That's that's storybook.
SPEAKER_05 (40:24):
Yeah, he he's one of the most dominant pitchers, man,
of his generation.
Kershaw, like you said, three,four Cy Young's and um, you
know, known as the greatestregular season pitcher we
probably have.
He kind of got a you know, getsa bun wrap for the postseason,
but you know, postseason that'sthat's out of a lot of our
control.
SPEAKER_06 (40:43):
Yeah, you know, uh I saw the interview.
I love the post-game interviewsin the locker room after they've
had a little bit of uh champagneand beer.

SPEAKER_07 (40:56):
Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_06 (40:58):

At the end of the interview, theenter the after the end of the
end of the interview, he said, Ilove your nipples to the mail
reporter.
SPEAKER_05 (41:18):
That champagne must have already been hidden to him.
SPEAKER_06 (41:20):
It was blowing, it was all out of humor.

to the right to wingo, and ithas uh resulted in a huge chunk
(48:36):
of real estate and a touchdown.

(01:26):
together, man.
You cannot question him rightnow.
SPEAKER_03 (01:29):
Absolutely not, man.
He felt really comfortable beingback in the effing crib.
That was fun, man.
It was fun to watch that firsthalf.
SPEAKER_06 (01:40):
Oh man.
SPEAKER_03 (01:42):
Those three quarters.
Three and three and a halfquarters.
Let's say that.
SPEAKER_06 (01:47):
Three and a half quarters.
Yep.
And that was impressive comingback home.
I mean, they were gone for 42days from Planet DKR.
I thought for 11 a.m.
that was about as good as youcan get the day after or morning
after Halloween.
There were a lot of uh hangoversin the building from the night
before because Halloween meanssomething to adults now.
(02:09):
It's just not for childrenanymore.
We all celebrate the right way.
SPEAKER_03 (02:15):
Absolutely.
SPEAKER_06 (02:16):
Right.
Yeah.
SPEAKER_03 (02:16):
The right way?
What is the right way?
SPEAKER_06 (02:19):
That is for interpretation by every
individual, every viewer,everyone.
It's different.
I can't answer for everybody.
It's just different.
How do you interpret it?
How did you and Summer, how didyou guys make Halloween fun at
from an adult point of view?
SPEAKER_03 (02:36):
Oh, we just hang out with the neighbors, man.
I didn't have any kids at home.
Oh, that's right.
SPEAKER_06 (02:41):
You're you're going you're almost empty now.
So you guys had, I'm assumingsome type of um beverage
cocktail was consumed.
SPEAKER_03 (02:51):
I had a little bit of bourbon, but that was about
it.
SPEAKER_06 (02:53):
That's okay.
And if you ever need any ofthose cocktails, I can tell you
where to go.
Uh, it's our guy Dave Ramirez upon Far West Boulevard.
(03:26):
Stogie in his mouth, but uh hewill treat you like a guest, not
a customer.
Uh man, we've got a lot to talkabout.
We've got to honor one of thebest uh Longhorn fans ever,
great human being.
He's a graduate of McCallum HighSchool here in Austin, Texas,
the great Scott Wilson, andwe've got a special former,
(03:47):
well, VIP of the Man Cave forLife.
He's coming back in to visitwith us along with our guy,
Playmaker83.
We've got a big show, man.
Nine shows remaining until wehit half a thousand Stevie.
Man, that's unreal.
Um, what do you think, man?
Is it no better time than to getit rolling, right?
SPEAKER_03 (04:07):
Let's ride.
SPEAKER_06 (04:08):
Let's ride, baby.
SPEAKER_01 (04:29):
Offense is starting to click a little bit.
We got to continue to press andfinish games, but um, probably
the way we play today.
Maybe the concussion helps.
SPEAKER_06 (04:39):
Stevie, I never thought I would put these words
or that sentence.
Maybe a concussion helped.
Uh, and he smiles.
I love how he humors it all.
He that all of them don't listento the media, but they do, they
are aware of what's being said.
But your thoughts on that whenhe said that and then having the
performance.
(04:59):
I mean, because all of us, allof those who are Longhorn fans
or any fan base who has had akey player or quarterback,
anyone on concussion protocol,you're on pins and needles
throughout the week becauseyou're being evaluated on what
you can and can't handle.
And then he was definitely agame time decision.
SPEAKER_03 (05:18):
Man, what it's funny that I haven't heard him say
that until just now.
But what's funny is one of myseatmates next to my season
tickets actually looked over andhe said, Have you ever seen a
concussion help somebody?
So yeah, man.
So that's that's the talk rightnow.
But man, he he came out on fire.
(05:40):
Uh, I said though, it wasn't theconcussion that helped.
It is these guys here was goingon in the media, and people was
talking about um uh Caldwell alot.
So um he knew that he had to uhdo something to silence that
talk because um maybe he waslike, you know what, I'm QB1 and
(06:00):
I need to act like it.
SPEAKER_06 (06:02):
That's it.
I like that.
That's exactly.
And then then you had the we'reat nine games in, they finally
got the right offensive linecombination.
Cole Hudson, the right guard,Connor Robinson, the center.
I mean, I don't think peoplerealize how hard that is when
you're rebuilding an old lineand try to mix and match and
find out who's gonna respond.
And they have, and now, youknow, this is that November part
(06:25):
where they literally have to winevery game to get into the CFP.
And up next is Georgia, but abye-week now, and that's what
we're gonna talk about as wehave this bye week.
Uh, all the great things thatwere accomplished despite uh the
near collapse in the fourthquarter, Texas dominated.
But hey, before we move forwardand bring in the playmaker83,
(06:48):
follow us on each of our socialmedia platforms.
And Stevie, we love all of oursponsors and our partnerships we
have.
But for this series, man, one ofthe best people, the Hargrove
family out of Shreveport, yourhometown.
They've migrated westward andthey have great, they are deeply
rooted here in Austin.
Hargrove Roofing, and and you'reone of the faces, including
(07:12):
Mason Shipley.
But I think I gotta give you theedge over Mason.
SPEAKER_03 (07:17):
Only because I've been here a little bit longer,
man.
SPEAKER_06 (07:19):
Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03 (07:19):
I joke about how I how did I get an NIL deal 20
years out of college?
Those are my guys, man.
They are the most pro-burntorange roofing company around
here, man.
So shout out to Hargrove and uhBilly Hargrove uh and the family
over there.
Hargrove Roofing, know who's onyour roof.
SPEAKER_06 (07:38):
Man, that's a great transition, you know.
And uh Mike Adams, he's got alot to live up to to even uh to
get up to Stevie.
I want to hear Mike Adams saythat.
Let's bring him in.
(07:59):
Mike Adams, what's up,gentlemen?
I don't know why it's taken methis long to even ask, but how
would you, what's your version?
How would you give a shout outto Hardgrove Roofing?
Man, Hardgrove Roofy, know who'son your roof.
That is really nice.
That's really just like that.
(08:20):
Just like that.
Hey, 34-31.
At one point, Texas was rollingyou knew Pavia in that group,
both sides of the ball.
They have uh a really good team,but I I didn't think that they
would storm back.
I don't think anyone did to makeit interesting on an onside kick
with about a minute left.
(08:40):
What's your you know, wrap it upin like three bullet points?
What were your thoughts?
SPEAKER_05 (08:47):
You know, I think uh I it started out pretty good.
I mean, touchdown first play ofthe game, and uh you know, Arch
is looking more and more, youknow, like like he's supposed to
be looking, and you know, the Oline look good, and defense
actually, I mean I thought theywere gonna pitch a shutout, but
I I think Vanderbilt may havelearned something about
themselves because I reallyhaven't seen them play with with
(09:10):
such an urgency like they didthis past game.
And obviously it had a lot to dowith the score and they were
fighting back, but I thinkthey've seen now, man, maybe we
don't have to be a three yardsin a cloud of dust, you know,
dominate the time of possession.
Man, because Paddy put up somenumbers.
Like, like, like he actually putup some numbers to match, you
know, the the the Heisman, youknow, the the stats that are
(09:33):
associated with being in theHeisman conversation.
I mean, I guess we can talk itup to us being maybe a little
relaxed.
I don't want to think that.
You know, I I'd rather thinkthat you know they made a run,
you know, we made some stops andand got the unsized kick, or at
least it went out of bounds, andthat just kind of ended it.
I don't I don't want to thinkthat we were just sloppy for a
(09:55):
whole half of football.
SPEAKER_06 (09:56):
Yeah, yeah.
I I I have to give you know,swing the direction of the
conversation uh to Stevie'sside.
Uh Mike Adams, to your point, toyour side, because you were the
receiver great.
Eight receivers for Texas hadmultiple receptions, but Stevie,
uh, the six sacks of Diego Paviaum and 10 tackles for loss, and
(10:20):
he and no one's really talkingabout enough, but Ethan Burke.
And I cannot believe he's asenior out of Westlake.
This one right here, I justwatch him get through the line
and what he's doing now later inhis career.
(10:46):
Amazing.
Stevie, I'll give you the honorsbeing the defensive guy.
What are we seeing here?
I mean, we have there's so manyplaymakers on that defense, but
what are we seeing right thereto allow a guy nothing against
Ethan, but there's so many guysgetting in on the act of either
tackles for losses and QB rushesor sacks.
SPEAKER_03 (11:05):
Yeah, so on that particular play, I did watch um,
he was very violent on contact,right?
So the offensive line tried toput his their his hands on him,
and he shot you can't really seeit from that shot, but he uh he
shot their hands off of him andwas able to get separation from
them and then shoot that gap forhim to uh get back there.
(11:27):
And he he did it a couple timesin the game where he actually
missed the sack, and Pavia isjust his feet got him out of
that sack.
But um he he's um he's violentto the man.
Um and then um get under controland get back there to the
quarterback.
I I like the way he's evolving.
Um he's going to be a like hehis game is it hasn't plateaued.
(11:50):
He's still learning and um andlearning how to pass rush.
I I love the way he was he wouldget off the ball, get to the
man, and fight that man and gotoff of him and then got into the
backfield.
Uh that was really cool to me.
SPEAKER_06 (12:04):
I mean, and it helps the offense with field position.
Um Mike, I wanted to ask youthis there that controversial
two-point conversion.
Everyone, no one likesofficials, but I don't know.
I I think the quality ofofficiating across the country,
I don't think it's SEC.
We said the same thing about Big12, but there were four
(12:26):
perspectives or angles of this.
And and uh everyone's seen this,but I want Mike to get your take
on this.
I don't think we there we go.
Well, I mean, I don't think anyof us can say there's any info
(12:49):
or anything that we see with ournaked eyes could that could say
that was definitely a two-pointconversion.
The overhead view, the nose ofthe ball may have scathed the
bottom of the white line, thegoal line, the plane.
What what are what what were wewhat do you think they were
looking at to determine that?
SPEAKER_05 (13:10):
Man, I don't know.
I mean that that was I andthat's a play that I missed, but
when I saw the replays, I'mlike, how how in the world did
they let this happen?
And then it just feeds into allthe conspiracy theorists of
referees being in on the gameand betting and all the
scandalous things that are outthere, man.
It's it it was weird, it wasweird, and you know, maybe it's
(13:34):
just one that they missed.
You know, I I don't want to bethe negative guy again.
I want to give them the benefitof the doubt, but man, that was
sketchy.
SPEAKER_03 (13:43):
That that that was that was pretty sketchy, but
yeah, and you're supposed tohave definitive evidence,
correct?
And I didn't see definitiveevidence on that.
Um I I don't I didn't like thatcall at all uh as I watched it,
you know, um afterwards.
And I know what you're talkingabout, Sean.
(14:03):
I didn't see it.
People thought that people theymay have thought it grazed the
line, but I wouldn't have calledthat grazing the line.
I that just did not be in and itand it feels icky, you know what
it feels like?
It feels like waking up on umMonday morning and and watching
NFL football and somebody tied,you know.
Icky that that didn't feel rightto me, and so that giving them
(14:26):
that two-point conversionwithout a definitive answer of
yes, he got that ball over theline.
That felt icky to me.
And in my mind, I was like, hewent to the headset.
What are they talking about?
You may have asked, What's theline of this game?
All right, let's just give themthat two points.
SPEAKER_05 (14:43):
Hey, they they it's time for the SEC and all the
other conferences to go to theuh the the the openness of the
ACC when they're uh replaybooth.
I mean they they got itbroadcast, telecasted right
there in front of the nation tosee, so you can hear everything.
So, whatever underlying motiveor agenda that we think may be
there, they they can't do itwhen we all are privy to those
(15:05):
conversations.
Absolutely, right?
SPEAKER_06 (15:08):
Well, unrelated, and and when I discovered it, this
was kind of a late ad to theshow.
But I I think Stevie, uh DiegoPavia, I love watching him play.
Um, certain people like,dislike, kind of like Johnny
Manzel, but you can't questionhis ability.
But I think in your section, youwere sitting near his brother,
(15:29):
right?
SPEAKER_03 (15:29):
Yes, I was.
SPEAKER_06 (15:31):
So I saw the video.
Can you confirm or deny was hewhat how was he acting?
What did he instigate all that?
SPEAKER_03 (15:40):
100% obnoxious, man.
Even before the game, he had theflag turning around to the
crowd, throwing up his the theVandy with Pavia flag, yelling
at everybody.
And you know, in my sectionwhere I sit in section 31,
playmaker, I don't know whereyour your seats are, but uh
(16:01):
alumni seats are typically rightthere 31 and 30.
We're all and uh he's right downin front of us, and you know,
we're kind of looking aroundlike, man, you know, celebrate
your brother, just turn aroundand shut up.
You know what I mean?
And so eventually he and thefamily goes down towards the
50-yard line.
So we're right there on the goalline.
(16:21):
So they go down towards the50-yard line, and dude, they
were just obnoxious the entiregame.
His brother, uh, I guess someonesaid that there was his mother
also there.
And um, it was golly, I don't, Idon't, I don't like talking
about people that's not betweenthe lines, but they were man,
(16:42):
just to put it frankly, theywere just classless.
It was just classless.
You were in somebody else'shouse, uh, acting a fool like
that.
No one was in their face, theywere in our face, you know, and
it was it was not it was notcool.
It wasn't cool at all.
And that that's all I reallywant to say about it, but um
back in my younger days, I'dhave probably gone down there
(17:04):
and it's like shut the healthup, you know.
But it was bad.
Like it was it was actuallymaking me upset that you don't
you don't you're not celebratingyour team, you're you're just
around here taunting us, tryingto taunt us.
So it felt good to whoop whoopup on them a little bit.
SPEAKER_06 (17:20):
You wouldn't miss Pavia's mother, though.
I just want to give her thatcompliment, by the way.
I wasn't gonna say it.
So Texas moves on.
We got a a bye week this week atGeorgia, Athens.
That is one of the mostbeautiful stadiums uh
atmospheres I've you know seenin person.
(17:41):
I've never been as a fan justfor word purposes.
But I'm just gonna beshort-lived on this topic.
I think next week will be abetter opportunity to revisit
this because there are threegames remaining on most of the
SP program schedule.
But I think with this confidenceand this Texas is developing,
(18:04):
this Texas and AM game the nightafter Thanksgiving, I think is
gonna have significantimplications on a lot.
CFP and who plays in the SECChampionship.
And I don't, I'm not trying tojinx it.
Could there be an opportunitythat if X or Y being Texas or AM
(18:27):
wins or loses, whoever wins orloses, it could be a rematch the
following week in the SEC titlegame.
This is all in play.
Um I don't know if you guys wantto talk about it or just wait
till next week.
SPEAKER_03 (18:40):
Well, let's um let's get past, let's, let's uh man,
let's get past Georgia first.
Let's just let's let's try toget Georgia on the schedule or
Georgia game in and see where weare after that.
Like that I think it may be alittle bit premature to talk
about the Aggies right now.
SPEAKER_06 (18:57):
I gotcha.
SPEAKER_05 (18:57):
Yeah, only I will say though, um and man, that's a
crazy scenario.
I hadn't really thought aboutthat one.
Yeah, I I think AM is a lot forthe CFP.
Um that may be a game when weplay them, we we may need to win
that game to to to be in the mixfor the CFP.
So and obviously, like you'resaying, man, we we still got
(19:19):
Georgia, still got Arkansas.
So man, we got we got a lot ofwork to do.
We we can't afford to lookahead.
SPEAKER_03 (19:24):
We do got a lot of work to do because that's uh
going into Athens in between thehedges, which is a beautiful
place.
I went there as a recruit.
Um but um then you gotback-to-back rivalry games.
Yeah, because believe it or not,Arkansas is a rival of ours.
They they hate us more than theylike themselves.
(19:46):
And and um and they couldthey're coming in our house, and
then we gotta come back to playthe Aggies who's on fire right
now, too.
So we got a tough road ahead,and they need we need to um play
what's in front of us right nowand not think about anything
else.
SPEAKER_05 (20:01):
Yeah, this this this Georgia game coming up, it's
essentially a playoff game.
Yeah, 100%.
Like we we that's how we gottalook at it, that's the approach
we gotta take.
And because uh, you know, if weif we were to lose that game,
man, that that puts us on theoutside looking in for real.
We we would need a lot of help.
SPEAKER_06 (20:23):
A lot of help.
And it's you know, with OUbeating Tennessee and Knoxville,
um that that that they're rightthere, and then the polls they
have OU above Texas now, right?
That went on the road, uh, andTexas Tech, who uh I don't know
a lot of people realize Kansas,they had had trouble
(20:43):
historically beating KansasState, they beat them on the
road.
Uh, I'm gonna post a video theirfield goal kicker.
It Mr.
Field Goal hit the upright, theloudest doink.
I mean, it was I'm sure youcould have heard it outside the
stadium, somewhat amusing, butmy my sense of humor is a little
awkward.
I find things amusing that mostpeople don't.
(21:03):
Uh, but but uh you don't have togo far.
I think the biggest upset, in myopinion, occurred in Dallas.
(21:45):
So Miami's done.
Done.
CFP hopes is done.
First home win versus a top 10team at home for SMU since 1974.
Unbelievable.
Awesome.
Yeah, that's awesome.
SPEAKER_05 (22:01):
Major mile, man, that was huge.
Big win.
And big win, you know, talkingabout the ACC, man.
I mean, you know, Miami, theirmargin for error was already
kind of small, and with themlosing that game, man, that that
just sets up uh SMU's a threat.
They've only lost once, man, andin Congress played the last
couple years.
I mean, they're pretty proven.
(22:22):
And you know, Louisville has togo down there in a couple of
weeks, you know, after comingoff a Clemson game that that you
know we have to play.
So SMU's right in the thick ofit, man, along with like four
other ACC teams.
SPEAKER_06 (22:35):
Margin for error is very small, and we'll see that
just in case you're not aware.
Uh MA Sons, they both play forthe Louisville Cardinals.
Uh Deuce playing at quarterback.
And speaking of Louisville,where are they in this uh our
own version of we have powerrankings, not ratings, power
rankings, so to speak.
(22:56):
Power twelve.
What's it look like now?
SPEAKER_05 (23:01):
You should be in that top twelve, I know.
SPEAKER_06 (23:03):
Well, let's go, let's check it out.
(23:26):
Don't hate on me.
They're right there.
They're right there.
SPEAKER_05 (23:33):
Kick his ass, I I I would actually take OU out.
I would take Texas might be inthe top 12, but I would place
both of those teams belowLouisville with the one loss.
That's fair.
That is fair.
And and and Virginia's there.
I Vanderbilt, I'm moving themdown.
I mean, if it weren't for a latesecond half slide, they might be
(23:57):
ranked in the 20s or somethinglike that.
It's like they they battle late.
But I think uh that that thatclose for that that poll is
pretty close to the AP.
The AP poll has uh you know, OUin Texas ranked in front of
Louisville.
Um, I think Virginia's ranked infront of those guys.
I I think the bye week, I wasthinking about this.
I think the bye week might hurtus this week, Texas.
(24:20):
You know, I've seen that in thepast.
If a team didn't play, uh youknow, other teams so so it
wouldn't it wouldn't site me tosee Texas fall a spot next week,
just just for the fact thatthey're not even playing this
week.
SPEAKER_06 (24:32):
It doesn't matter.
Uh, but the only poll thatreally matters is the CFP, and
that'll be revealed on Tuesday,that tomorrow as I cover up's
face.
Um guys, one of the one of theeveryone's favorite human beings
who's been around the program along time.
Um, I thought what UT did waspure class.
(24:54):
Uh Scott Wilson, uh, when Texaswas on their way to the Florida
game, uh, as soon as he got offthe plane, had a massive heart
attack, stroke.
I I've I've heard both.
And he he's been at the he wasat the University of Florida
Medical Center for all thistime.
And I believe it was Halloween.
(25:16):
He he passed away, and it'saffected a lot of people because
this guy has been around, um,especially baseball for me
growing up.
Uh the the original Wild Bunch.
Um Scott was one of theirringleaders and just a good
human being, and then trulydevoted to the University of
Texas, uh, a lawyer, and he's anative Austinite.
(25:39):
And I don't know, I'm 74 yearsold, he passed away, and this is
how he was honored at UT.
SPEAKER_00 (25:47):
All home and away.
He is Scott Music with anincredible legacy of that.
SPEAKER_06 (25:54):
We show my second Scott's favorite song, the eyes
of and we bring in Mark Pina,uh, also alias, occupy left
field, the king of, the CEO ofbrother.
Thanks for coming back in.
It's been a while.
SPEAKER_04 (26:14):
Yeah, absolutely.
I appreciate you having me backon, Clinch.
SPEAKER_06 (26:17):
Absolutely, brother.
Anything for you.
Um, the reason why obviouslyyour relationship with the Texas
baseball program and who youare, and just a just a solid
human being, but you also had agreat relationship, and you have
a great way of communicatingthings such as this and what he
(26:39):
meant to not only baseball, butto this community, and also just
remembering the great humanbeing he was.
SPEAKER_04 (26:47):
Yeah, Scott was uh he was one of one, Sean, and
there's there's never gonna beanother Scott Wilson again.
Uh I would venture to guess hemay be the most deep diehard
college sports fan anywhere inthe country, right?
I mean, you talk about hisstreaks going to how many
baseball games?
Almost 1,600 baseball games in arow.
(27:09):
1600 baseball games 2,000.
Yeah, it's insane, man.
Just the the streaks areincredible.
His uh his dedication to UT andall of the various programs uh
was just second to none.
And on top of it, he was justsuch a fantastic person, man.
He knew everybody, everybodyknew him, he remembered
(27:31):
everybody's names.
Uh, I think, you know,especially with the baseball
program, there isn't a mom, adad, a brother, a sister, an
athletic trainer that ScottWilson didn't know, man.
He was just a very specialperson uh that that tried to do
everything he could to supportthe program, to support the
teams, and uh he's gonna bemissed.
SPEAKER_06 (27:53):
Um, Mike, Stevie, just to give you an idea, well,
I mentioned his age, but uh thisis a guy that attended baseball
games at the old Clark Fieldwhere they would skip class, and
that's over there by the BassConcert Hall, or it was.
But even before that streak ofbaseball games, there were
several in which he traveled to.
He was at the College WorldSeries dating back to the 80s,
(28:16):
all of them tailgating, and thenit's unbelievable.
And if I remember correctly, andMark, uh, you may be able to
correct me and tell me I'mwrong, but I think he's been to
every football game since EarlCampbell played.
SPEAKER_04 (28:31):
Yep.
SPEAKER_06 (28:32):
Wow.
SPEAKER_04 (28:32):
That is absolutely true, has not missed one, man.
So uh he uh he went out doingwhat he loves for sure, you
know, and and being out on atrip.
Uh, I think, you know, Sean,biggest biggest regret for us
and and for his friends is thatyou know he passed away in
Florida so far away from fromall his friends and and people
who would have loved to bit uhbe there to support him.
(28:54):
But uh again, man, he he wentout doing what he loved.
And and then I think if youwould have asked him how he
would have gone out, it wouldhave been getting off a plane to
go watch the horns playfootball.
So special too.
Yep.
SPEAKER_06 (29:07):
Well Stevie or Mike, do you guys remember Scott at
all?
Did you from your day?
SPEAKER_05 (29:13):
I I mean I I I've never had a pleasure of meeting
him, but I but definitely seeinghis presence, you know, all
social media and just knowingthat name.
I mean, I I've seen that name,and I wish I could have could
have met him.
I mean, he's you know, like likeMark said, probably the the the
best.
I'm gonna call him super fan ofany alumni you know in the
(29:36):
country.
I with you know Scott and theguy from Ohio State comes to
mind.
The guy you know that we alwaysyou know those two, man.
But just the vehicle with thehorns on it and him traveling to
Omaha.
I think that's when I first likereally uh started kind of paying
attention.
It may have been like the O5World Series or or one of those
series, but but man, he's uhyeah, certainly had a great
(29:58):
impact.
On Texas sports.
And yeah, he's gonna be missed,man.
Gonna miss seeing his presenceat those games and them just
showing him whenever there's abig game and all that sort of
thing.
SPEAKER_06 (30:12):
Stevie, I think that orange that burnt orange caddy
may be up your alley.
SPEAKER_03 (30:17):
It might be, man.
It might be.
I don't know if that's not theolder one that I want.
I want the 64, so it's a littlebit longer.
But yeah, I remember uh the carand uh I'd never had a pleasure
of meeting him like him, but umknew of him.
Um and and knew I knew thatrecord of uh not missing a
football game.
I did not know about basket, Imean uh um baseball, but I knew
(30:40):
I knew it was about football.
Um but yeah, man, it it's soreal, it's really cool, and
that's the spirit of collegefootball.
Um uh fans like that.
Um hopefully we don't lose thatin this new NIL and revenue
sharing um um uh what era thatwe're in.
So um, you know, it's it's hatsoff to him, you know.
(31:04):
Prayers go out to the family andjust praying for healing energy,
man, because uh um that ispretty cool.
Like he's known for followinghis horns and uh you know passed
away following his horns.
That's that's that's prettyneat.
SPEAKER_05 (31:21):
And and to be honest, man, there's not a lot
of you know no schools that haveuh these types of
representatives.
I I mean UT is is one of thoseschools.
I mean, um, you know, besidesScott, and and there's tons of
them that that probably don'thave the the recognition that he
does, but man, they'refaithfully again, right?
You know, each and every week.
(31:42):
I mean, they travel.
I mean, you look at our teamswhen we go to the NCAA
tournament or or the CollegeWorld Series or whatever, our
fans are there, man.
They're there.
That that's one of the reasonswhy you know it'd be hard for
any any player to come out ofhigh school, you know, even if
it is the nil there.
I mean, I mean, it's just somethings are gonna be constants,
and the support that UT has, youknow, and different alumni, man,
(32:05):
that's always gonna be aconstant.
SPEAKER_04 (32:06):
Yeah, and then Clinch and Mike, one of the the
great things about Scott, right,is he gets that recognition for
football baseball.
But right, dude, it was crazythe way he supported every
program on campus.
Uh one of my funniest storiesabout Wilson is I called him
about 10 years ago.
I don't even remember what timeof year it was, but it wasn't
during baseball season.
(32:27):
I just called him to check onhim to see how he was doing.
And I go, hey man, what are youup to, Wilson?
He's in Minnesota.
And I go, what are you doing upin Minnesota?
He was at a University of Texaswomen's golf tournament.
He drove to Minnesota by himselfto go watch women's college
golf.
That's just how much of a fan ofthe University of Texas as he
(32:50):
was.
And anytime he had anopportunity to get in his car
and you know, drive across thecountry to go support a program,
he was gonna do it.
So it's not just the the bigsports.
He was there for everybody,never missed a volleyball game,
never missed a softball game.
I mean, he was everywhere.
Uh so uh truly one of a kind.
SPEAKER_06 (33:08):
One of a kind.
I it just I just realized one ofmy favorite stories, and this
may be the first time that hereally left a mark on me.
And I I think I tweeted aboutit, but I must have been 88 or
89.
Um, I was a young guy, I had alot of hair then.
Um I'm entering ditch fog frombefore the renovations on the
(33:32):
third base side, and that was Ithink the week or two after OU
and Oklahoma State were both inthe big eight.
And they got it's called Vedlam,they got into a brawl.
I mean, OU, the Sooners Cowboyswere they were benches clearing
brawl.
(33:52):
And when OU came to Austin, itwas either for a non-conference
series or maybe it was aregional game.
I can't remember.
Scott Wilson and the Wild Bunchstarted from the third base
side.
He had a full boxer's robe on,boxing gloves, uh, the two Wild
Bunch members with water pels,and he's walking around like
(34:15):
this around the concourse beforethe first pitch of the game, and
they were rising off becausethey mark it, just like you guys
do out in left field.
Um you guys study, and you guysknow who your uh the opponent
is, especially the left fielder.
The beautiful thing here, occupyleft field is an extension of
(34:36):
the it's the modern day uh wildbunch, and that's what's cool
about it things evolve.
And do you did you ever hearthat story, Mark?
SPEAKER_04 (34:45):
But I have heard that story, I've heard so many
stories, but that's one of thegood ones that people like to
tell.
Absolutely.
SPEAKER_06 (34:52):

I can't imagine a better way togo out than the public with this
group.
SPEAKER_06 (37:45):
You baseball guys, you guys are bigger baseball
guys than me.
The Dodgers claim their ninthWorld Series in Clayton Kershaw,
all 18 seasons in LA, 11-timeAll-Star.
I think it was what two time CyYoung winner, but native of
Highland Park in Dallas, Texas,man.
(38:05):
What's your thoughts on theDodgers?
SPEAKER_03 (38:08):
Uh hats off to him.
I I was um I was rooting forthem because I'm a Magic Johnson
fan and he's part of theownership group.
Um, and you know, it's just umwell I I learned a long time ago
that baseball was America's bestuh pastime, and you just can't
let the American pennant go upto Canada, man.
(38:29):
So we have people in America,man.
So I'm I'm happy that theDodgers uh pulled it out.
SPEAKER_05 (38:37):
Yeah, that's kind of why I changed my opinion.
At first I was on the uh Drakeand Kendrick Lamar angle, but
then I came in my senses.
I was like, nah, I want theDodgers to win, and I'm a big
Yankees fan, and yeah, theDodgers and Yankees they have
their own little little pass andrivalry going, but I I'd rather
see the Dodgers win than the uhBlue Jays.
(39:00):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_06 (39:02):
It was a great series, it was great for the
game, and I I haven't seen thefinal numbers on ratings, it
really doesn't matter.
That was great baseball, greatbaseball for now that we're in
November, it used to be theOctober classic, but and it was
it was I'm sorry, let me uh saythis, man.
SPEAKER_03 (39:18):
It was really fitting for a game seven World
Series to go into extra innings.
That was yes, it was a storybookum uh ending, you know.
SPEAKER_05 (39:32):
So yeah, the Dodgers were losing, yeah.
SPEAKER_03 (39:35):
They were losing and came back.
And so for it did Kershawannounce retirement.
Was that his retirementannouncement when he was talking
in the locker room?
SPEAKER_05 (39:43):
I I believe so.
I think I think he alreadyannounced it like prior to okay.
They knew that he was going touh this is gonna be his last
year.
SPEAKER_03 (39:51):
See, you can't even write that movie right there,
man.
That's one screens, you know.
So that's that's perfect forhim.
Great for the Dodgers.
Um, I know he's gone through upsand downs, being with her for 18
years.
Uh new ownership, going throughthat, new GMs and coaches and
things like that, but he wastried and true, and then in his
(40:14):
career, in uh it was in Toronto,but with the Dodgers in extra
innings in game seven.
That's that's storybook.
SPEAKER_05 (40:24):
Yeah, he he's one of the most dominant pitchers, man,
of his generation.
Kershaw, like you said, three,four Cy Young's and um, you
know, known as the greatestregular season pitcher we
probably have.
He kind of got a you know, getsa bun wrap for the postseason,
but you know, postseason that'sthat's out of a lot of our
control.
SPEAKER_06 (40:43):
Yeah, you know, uh I saw the interview.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
