This year, they win all six games by an average of twenty three points, including the Natty by fifteen. They have now won twelve tournament games in a row by double digits. They just set a record for large port trainer and they did it with two completely different teams. It is actually kind of insane how how dominants Yukon team is.

So that's where they were.

Let's see where the last few years have been for Yukon football. They made a Bowl game in twenty two and lost to Marshall. I don't know what they did last year. Oh well, it doesn't matter all right, let's get to the show. You know that may sound means Aaron, don't.

This is new to me five minutes ago.

So I found two different USC football Twitter accounts, not the official accounts, like you're concerning USC football. Yes, we got to be in this bit and watch this over the next couple of days. There seems to be a lot of momentum saying that bear Alexander going to hit the transfer portal, some of the Trojans to your nuge nudge former Georgia defensive tackle big news when he joined up with the USC Trojans last year. I don't know why you want to be happy. I've seen videos of his apartment. It looks absolutely stunning. But yeah, rumors are be Alexander may hit the portal, and well, first off, give me your initial reaction when you hear that, uh.

Little shocked because you know, big, big reason I'm going back into back in the time here, The big reason why he left Georgia was he wanted more NIL funds.

Went to USC to get that. So you're getting paid.

You're living the life in USC, and now you care about wins. So you didn't care about winning championships at Georgia. You just wanted to get paid.

Well, yeah, said you don't know. We don't know why, we don't know why he's leaving. That's you ascribing to him that he's leaving because he's upset that they're not winning.

Well, yeah, said you don't know. We don't know why, we don't know why he's leaving. That's you ascribing to him that he's leaving because he's upset that they're not winning.

He's getting paid. He went there to get paid. He's getting paid.

He's getting paid. He went there to get paid. He's getting paid.

What have you done, like the coaches? I don't know. He's gonna get paid anywhere he goes. That's that's the fascinating angle to me here is.

What have you done, like the coaches? I don't know. He's gonna get paid anywhere he goes. That's that's the fascinating angle to me here is.

Is he gonna get a bigger back somewhere else?

Is he gonna get a bigger back somewhere else?

As someone who covers this LSU team, Yes, that's what I'm saying. LSU right now is so fucking desperate, and there are other teams like this out in there right. It's so fascinating how much leverage these players have nowadays, because like he was okay at USC one and a half, sacks, six and a half TFLs. Those are fine numbers.

It's so fascinating how much leverage these players have nowadays, because like he was okay at USC one and a half, sacks, six and a half TFLs. Those are fine numbers.

Yeah, the numbers were great, but he was by far the best defensive player in that that team, which doesn't say a lot because they were all but he flashed. I will say this, like he flashed.

Yeah, the numbers were great, but he was by far the best defensive player in that that team, which doesn't say a lot because they were all but he flashed. I will say this, like he flashed.

Still, I guess what I'm getting at is what he represents to LSU just in like that single case, is so much more than what he would be paid just objectively on his play. So all I'm pointing out is that it is wild how much leverage players have in this spring market because of how desperate some teams are to fill these Achilles heels. I mean, if you get a Bear Alexander at LSU, I mean you feel different, like it like and maybe this is exaggerated, but that feels like maybe a win or two different even though so that probably is exaggerated, but like that that will be the feeling.

So two is possible.

So two is possible.

You you sure up that with you know, with what that offense can be. Like the biggest hole for for LSU is a defensive line. If you go in there and get it, hits it to use the word premiere, but a really guy would say, a pretty good guy, you know, like I remember you know you and I watched a lot of USC defense last year because we had the debate like, especially on the season, are they improved that they not improves like we really diagnosed and can watch. He was truly one of the very few guys that did flash that said Okay.

That guy is legit.

That guy is legit.

That guy is a future NFL defense attack like he has those abilities. And I know a bunch of Georgia fans that are bitching moment and saying, Dann, we wish we still had Bear Alexander this season. So yeah, he would be a massive improvement to LSU. So and this kind of goes to what we talked about yesterday Tea. We talked about for coaches always worrying about all the stresses of being a coaching today's game. But if you are Brian Kelly, why are you not going to your collective or going to your big booster saying hey, if Bear Alexander hits the market, I don't give a damn how.

If you want us to win shape or win games next year, we need him on the roster.

I mean I did just tweet out attention all LSU boosters, you need to overpay this man immediately. I guess it becomes a question of economics. Do you have the money? And then who else is in the market? I mean, right, here go talk, says Texas might Courtum real good this quick. Yeah, Ohio State's always going to be in the mix. Oh miss ain't afraid to pay so again. But that's that's good for bears. If oh miskits him, that means he's going to get paid.

Uh, it's but just this is still what I have a problem with with this whole thing, this one and done. You know you're hitting You're getting to do free agency every single year.

I think it's outrageous that you get to hit the market every single damn year.

If you want to, I'm fine with it. I also think I'm in the minority, and that because of it, that'll be one of the driving factors behind the eventual consolidation, unionization or something therein collective bargaining and rules stopping this. But yeah, me personally, I'm fire with it. But I do think I'm in the I do think I'm in the minority there. I mean, because look, bok he said, you have know your all players have more power, but you say they have too much of the moment. Yeah, I mean, look, I I don't think so. But again I'm probably not representative how most of y'all feel out.

Maybe yeah, right, sure? Uh golf Souths's college football players have more power than any professional athlete currently. I mean, they definitely have less restrictions, which, again I don't know. I don't mind. Maybe it's also because I've spent a lifetime of seeing NFL teams fuck over players contracts like their paper, but then hold players to the right like an NFL team will cut you at a a drop of a hat and not pay you the money that you once signed for. And yet the players don't have that power. I don't mind. If if, if, if if, if, labor is getting one back of those people, even if it's on a different level. All right, So bear Alexander, Let's keep an eye on it if he actually does end up hitting the market. How about this from Nicole auerback the only college football games. Oh, by the way, sorry, the final Nielsen reporting. This is for the Iowa South Carolina women's final for March Madness. The final reporting. The final drew eighteen point nine million viewers on average, at twenty four million in the fourth quarter. The only sorry, go ahead.

You know what's also smart? They had the game on Sunday and not on Monday. Why are all men's championship games on Monday night?

You know what's also smart? They had the game on Sunday and not on Monday. Why are all men's championship games on Monday night?

I think traditionally Monday, well, Monday Primetime not a better No, but his Monday primetime not a better TV slow than Sunday primetime. I'm not sure. I don't know. I don't know.

I think traditionally Monday, well, Monday Primetime not a better No, but his Monday primetime not a better TV slow than Sunday primetime. I'm not sure. I don't know. I don't know.

Sunday and there's was Sunday afternoon, like there's.

Sunday and there's was Sunday afternoon, like there's.

Yes Sunday after you're doing here? No, No, that is weird that that did. Those labores actually insane. But why this relates to college football is because I think it's a great way to contextualize that number. And the only college football games that drew bigger audiences in that final were the Rose Bowl, the Natty, and Michigan Ohio State. So you have a women's college basketball game going toe to toe with the college football national championship game. It is kind of unbelievable to see. And I get it's Kaitlyn Clark. And sure, these numbers probably dip as you lose some of the superstars and new ones had to be made next year. But I am a firm believer in the sociological tale on stuff like this right, Why are like how much talent out of the female basketball talent pool was left unexplored because they grew up, say, hearing that nobody cared about basketball, Like you don't know the superstars that you missed out on because they went and did something else because society told them this wasn't for them. I watched Rex Chapman with a very interesting take the other day about like why it is the world as a whole producing great white NBA players but not America, And he was like, well, because here we tell him that you know, the sport's not for you. I like, again, I don't know if that's true. I'm sure we get in like demography and other stuff that'd explain that, but but it made me start to Yeah, like, there's a sociological tale on this where all of a sudden, you're gonna have little girls out there who do get into basketball and do fully explore their talents, and it grows the game over time, and it starts to create momentum, and it starts to get exponential, and then you end up with better sports all around. So I think it's pretty fucking cool, man, and really mind blowing to see that big of a number.

What the difference? Once again, it's it's the fact.

What the difference? Once again, it's it's the fact.

And this is this does go into football a little bit too, with guys moving around from place to place to place to place to place. Why did we love women's college basketball this year? Why was the numbers through the roof? Because Caitlin Clark is a superstar. Yes, I get that, but she's been there lsu. These players have been in college basketball, yeah, you know for more than just one year. You get to know them, you have to know their personalities, you get to you know, get to know them both on and off the court, especially when it comes to you know, now with NIL, so men's basketball get a lot of wine douts men's football and not saying like there isn't transfer portal for women's basketball.

Yes, it's there one hundred percent, but.

Yes, it's there one hundred percent, but.

Football is obviously the big, the big, the big bang when it comes to the transfer portal. Because of NIL and the ability to get paid everywhere you go, Women's basketball hit gold this year because they had a bunch of superstars that were at their locations and they'd been there for a while, and it was just a perfect.

Mesh of all that.

And and I'm with you hopefully it turns out to be like this isn't just a one time thing.

And and I'm with you hopefully it turns out to be like this isn't just a one time thing.

Well, I want to be filled.

Well, I want to be filled.

Though it's already not a one time thing. I mean this built off of last year, last year's number person.

But it's the same cast, it's the same players.

But it was.

Caitlin, it was Don Staley, head coach of South Carolina, who's obviously still going to be there.

But you had the big ones.

I think you'll take are gone. I think you'll take a step back. But it's like it's like the old uh, one step back, two steps forward, right, like like the overall games over time I think will be born out even if you take a step back in the immediate short term, uh next year. But yeah, pretty fascinating stuff there, pretty cool stuff if if you ask me. And here in the chat, doctor Gonzo is talking about the bikini basketball League. Okay, and you wonder why, maybe you wonder why some of these women were like, you know, I'm not supposed to play basketball. Mail bag, as always, you can email your questions and two snapsy to beat gmail dot com. Who this comes from, Nick s who is the most overrated coach slash team in college football. I feel like, right now it could be Bama because they lost saving only time will tell. I disagree with the Bama answer simply because right now the roster remains loaded. And if anything, Kleen de Bor has never been overrated. If anything, he's been underrated. So no, I'm not gonna go Bama. The guy that jumped into my head immediately is Daba And it's just because whenever we do the best coaches conversations, he continues to be brought up because he has national championships that nobody else does. And that's there to a point, but like it also flies in the face of the evidence that is right in front of us, which is a clear and consistent regression as he stays stagnant in a time of absurd change. So like you still see him at the top of all these lists. In Clemson right now is just a solid football program. They are not among the elite right now.

No, And that's that's I mean, that's I think the one that most people would pick just because you said, like you you rank them, like, oh, you gotta throw dab one there because he has championships. But it's it's this isn't an all time list. This is like today, where do they belong? And he is his resume is far exceeding where he currently is right now because of his own doing with not kind of you know, transitioning.

As well as most to the new landscape of college football.

So like, yeah, it's Dabo, but I mean they're also a program that you say they're overrated, but they're in a conference that is pretty weak. They still have more talent than almost everyone in that conference. They have more resources and facilities maybe better than anyone else in that conference. Yeah, so what they may be down, they are a team that we may consider overrated, but can turn it around pretty quick.

Look, very good chance of making a twelve team playoff. I don't think they're gonna really threaten once they get there. I would say Mario Chris Ball is overrated. You know my feelings on that. If you listen to this show. The man's got a five hundred career record with like a decade of head coaching resume to his name. It's pretty big sample size. You want a little hot one here, you want a little heater, a little fresh baked hot take. Kirby Smart overrated last year, dude, Remember when David Pollock looked Nick Saban in the eye and said, Kirby Smart is college football. And then what happened? Big Daddy Nick came back and said not so fast and wrote off business Sunset.

Ye, you, you wouldn't consider him overrated right now, your whole big rant, your whole big ran.

He's only done it once. It's been the exception.

And now we're saying Texas is a your top four or five team and Sark is knocking on the door to be a top five coaching college football like you, you you wouldn't hit that.

The reason why I'm not answering Sark is because despite the fact that I'm pointing out those things, I actually think he will be able to follow it up like I think they will be able to follow through. I'm just pointing out, like what the table setting is. But if you're asking me what I'm predicting, I have been bludgeoned and dragged across the Texas's back finish line. Now I did it kicking and screaming. But I do find myself on the side of the people that think that Texas will continue to be nationally relevant.

Ben in the chat says, no, y'all love him, but Dan Landing feels overrated to me. I thin think that's an interesting one because he's still so early in his career, and I know there's been a lot of excitement. He took over a really good program. Mario left it in pretty darn good shape. You know, you know how well Mario your recruits. He is able to hit gold with Bo Nicks, who's a potential first round NFL draftick this year. Do you think that do you think that there is a possibility of Oregon taking a drop next year?

Remember that thing I said to the group yesterday from what Twitter account is that it's really good. It's like stat of stats of war. Pretty cool. Analytical college football count sky Parker Fleming has created his own system for predicting wins and you know, I mean, this is just numbers, but uh, looking at schedule, and I don't know exactly he formulates his numbers, but his version zero point one of twenty twenty four Big ten win totals actually has Oregon atop the charts with a ten point three win prediction, Penn State and Ohio State coming in at ten to one, and then Michigan and Rutgers at eighth nine. So there seems to be some data that was in that maybe Oregon is not. I feel why it'd be tempting to fall into that because he's young, small sample size, and they're going into a new conference. But like Sark, I find myself betting on Landing because he's kind of the inverse Dabo. Nobody is better suited to dealing with the change of the current college table landscape than as somebody as young and mobile as as Dan Lanning.

There's one more that jumps out to me, and it's Ryan Day.

There's one more that jumps out to me, and it's Ryan Day.

You know, I think he has opportunity to push all that away this year if he does get back winning the Big Time championship and you know, ends up winning a national championship like he's he's this is his big year all chips are in the middle of table and I top players. You went out there and got him. If you can't win this year, then there's a question of can you ever win?

So I think that's that's the.

So I think that's that's the.

Narrative right now, that that Brian Day was born on third base, he hasn't done a lot with it. He's lost to Michigan three straight times. How could you not be considered overrated if you've lost to your your biggest competitor, your biggest rival, three straight years, and technically on the on the on the paper, you have a more talented roster than them.

Yeah, no, that is that's that's the very fair point of the Day front. I just feel like it's so a lot of this, I think has to do with how we talk about them in public, and I feel like Ryan Day is actually getting a lot of that publicly right like like it almost went too far to where all of a sudden, everybody's like Ryan Day sucks, and it's like I don't quite agree with Then this is a pretty good point. A BYuT a barge. He says, uh, where was it?

Mark stoops?

No, no, no, no, sorry, it was before that he mentioned sark oh no bo mullinery. Sark is Jimbo two point zero. That's kind of interesting thing about because when Jimbo went nine to one in twenty twenty, that was kind of the exact same rise that Sark was on. And I don't think any of us have guessed that Texas A and M was going to fall apart as hard as they did. So just something, do something to keep an eye on.

I think different. I think different though, just based on brands. And I know A and M had a lot of money and then that that goes a long waiting today's world. But you can't tell me that like once Texas does get rolling, that that's a brand that can keep going and there's a little lot more to it.

And to be clear, I don't I don't really think that Kirby's overrated. I was just just they just fell a little short of expector.

And and Nude Nudge raises a good point talking about late kick Josh Peate, our buddy, talking about how you know this. These are all conversations that have to do with your expectation. And so if you don't expect James Franklin win championships, then he's not going to show up in this conversation because we already don't expect him to, Whereas Kirby is rated on a god level tier. So if he doesn't perform like God and he looks mortal, then it's like, oh man, what we you know what I think?

No, it goes to we wouldn't consider it at least last year. You want to consider Franklin a better coach than Ryan Day or Hardball, So obviously he is going to lose those games. But the problem with Georgie and Kirby is we did start getting to the narrative that's good for Kirby has surpassed Saban. Kirby is better than Saban at this point in his career. So when that didn't happen, then yeah, then Kirby is technically overrated because we all had him higher than Saban. But no one was making the case for Franklin that he was better than those two coaches, or that Penn State was more talented than Michigan Ohio State last year.

Somebody says, is it Mark Stoops a top ten paid coach in the entire country in twenty twenty three? Was I don't know if it's changed, but he was coming into nine at nine million dollars a year. You know how I feel about Stoops. I think it's very overrated. But then all the college football hive mind likes to be like, oh, well, look at what he's doing at Kentucky. Kentucky's so hard to win at I put him on this. Look, I gotta be honest, I got to look in the mirror. I think Brian Kelly is dangerously close to being in this conversation. A lot of it's going to depend on what goes on this year, and the reason being is that at Notre Dame he had the excuse of a glass ceiling or just a ceiling right where it's Notre Dame. They have to care about academics, no great recruiting grounds geographically, like there's barriers to winning championships there. I mean, let's just call spade a spade.

Okay, It's fine when it's being said like, oh, they actually have to care about you know, school.

Okay, It's fine when it's being said like, oh, they actually have to care about you know, school.

Bro, I mean, look, Cardele Jones said it best. I didn't come here to play school, Mayor Alexander didn't come to USC to play fucking school. Okay, And so you look at Brian Kelly now at LSU, Nick Saban, Les Miles at Oseron all won national championships within their first four years. Do we think that Brian Kelly is going to be able to do the same? And if he doesn't, then how should he be judged against? That?

Think he's to be judged because at least for my standards, I've kind of stood on this and said that Brian Kelly's.

Think he's to be judged because at least for my standards, I've kind of stood on this and said that Brian Kelly's.

A top five coach.

A top five coach.

Yeah, we all have, we all.

Yeah, we all have, we all.

Have, we all have.

Have, we all have.

So if he is not getting to that double digit win in your three how can we consider him a top five coach in America?

So if he is not getting to that double digit win in your three how can we consider him a top five coach in America?

Yeah? No, I agree, And granted he did do great things in terms of where that roster was at to the immediate results, but national championship is the barrier with him and that's what he's going to be judged against, which brings us to mail that question number two from Ken G. A lot of people about rus are excited about the twenty twenty five recruiting class for LSU. They got Bryce Underwood, who's the number one quarterback, Harlow Barry the number one running back, and maybe de Koran Moore, he's the number one wide receiver. However, on three did just flip onto Korean Moore to saying that now they believe that he's a Texas Lean even though he's committed to LSU, So we'll keep an eye on that, and he goes on to say, will Brian Kelly winning Natty at LSU? And if so win? I still think Brian Kelly will break through at some point win nationally to at LSU, because again, the last three coaches have right, and I think that he's I think that he's at his height, probably a better coach than less Miles was, and I think that he's probably better coach than at Osroon was. And so that would think that yes, he will win becomes much more interesting because I don't see it this year. Maybe next season with with a more experienced Garrett nuss Smyer, one more year in the hopper, a year to build up and shore up some of the weaknesses, another year with this new defensive staff that you just paid ten million dollars for essentially to bring in there. So I'm thinking maybe year four would be a year to circle which LSU needs to take a significant step forward, and that also be another year of not having Nick Saban so like there's a lot of trends that would point to maybe not this year, but the year after for LSU.

Yeah, I think it's this year.

Yeah, I think it's this year.

I think I think if LSU can get to that double digit win, I think that's a huge that that to me, that would be like, okay, I still consider him a top five coach to consider him, you know, one of the best in the game if you can get a couple of pieces.

You mentioned garrettn Aspyer coming back for another.

You mentioned garrettn Aspyer coming back for another.

Season year four, possibly, I don't know, Like I don't know what the I don't know what teams are gonna look like next you know, in two seasons, I don't know who's gonna say they they move, they may lose both their tackles, both those tackles. You know, it's gonna be maybe the best offensive line in America at LSU. Both those tackles may go to the NFL. So then you have to play guys on the offense. Like, you just don't know what these rosters are gonna look like in two years. But I can firmly say that I truly believe like this year ain't gonna be the year. So you know what's next year four? Well, see, but I think that you brought a great point. Let's not forget when he took over this roster, what three years ago, two and a half years ago, whatever it was, they had thirty something scholarship players on that roster. They could barely put together a team to play in a bowl game.

It was embarrassing.

It was embarrassing.

So yes, to take that turn it into an SEC West winner in year one and then a double digit winner in year two, pretty damn impressive. I it's a lot more to build with that roster, so not this year, but possibly you're four.

Yeah, I mean, uh, Golsalth says BK took over a worse situation than saving Miles a coach.

Yeah, I mean, uh, Golsalth says BK took over a worse situation than saving Miles a coach.

O that's objectively true.

O that's objectively true.

And yes, uh nuss Meyer does have two years left, so you kind of figure he'll probably be your starter the next two years unless he has like an astronomical year and decides that he wants to go ahead and make his way to the NFL. Do you think did you answer, do you think Brian Kelly will win a Natty at LSU in this ten year contract?

Okay, I think there's just there's too much hidden talent in Louisiana. I mean, they're They're the team that has put to put what more NFL guy guys in the NFL draft that have been drafted that weren't four and five star guys than anyone else in the country. It's incredible, Like the two and three guys are in the middle of nowhere. Luisiana, Yeah, they are.

LSU's terrible with five stars and they're basically like the Iowa of the SEC when it comes to developing the underrated guys and getting them into the into the NFL mailbag Question number three, this comes from T Bob h Can Michigan that's me. Can Michigan set an NFL draft record this year? Remember back in the day, Harball before the season said he thinks Michigan could have twenty draft picks set the record. Now, a couple of guys chose to return, which maybe affects that number. But the record was set by UGA in twenty twenty two. Is that twenty one UGA team they had fifteen draft picks five first rounders. Twenty nineteen, LS you had fourteen draft picks, oh four, Hiuse stated fourteen. This is very rare. However, when you look at this Michigan team, they had eighteen players invited to the combine, UGA had fourteen in that year. With to add all those players drafted, there is a chance they're not going to touch the five first round picks, but there is a good chance, not good chance, but there is a shot that Michigan could indeed end up setting the record and having sixteen players drafted. And probably the biggest uh surprise there would be the fact that twelve of the fourteen for UGA were four or five stars. Whereas this the all these picks from Michigan, a bit more development, a bit less frontline superstars coming out of high school, and yet guys who went enjoined the program and were made into NFL guys, which I think is a big credit to Michigan scouting and their development and their process overall.

Yeah, and I think the not only the scouting and development, which is a probably one you know one A one B when it comes to the importance, but also like just buying in. I mean, they truly bought into their identity, you know, they bought the identity that we're going to be more physical, were to be stronger, We're gonna you know, just beat you to death at the line of scrimmage. And that's that's that was their identity, and that's what the name, that's what the nation viewed them as. That's what Ohio State and the Ohio State fans viewed them as. That's how they viewed themselves. We're gonna be bigger, tougher, stronger. Maybe not as athletic as Ohio State, maybe not as flashy, but this is who we are. And it was three years of building to that championship and now it culminates with with the possibility to to put more guys in the NFL than anyone else in the draft.
