You can ask us anything does not have to be sports related, and yeah, we'll go with the we'll go with And there's not really a ton of news today erin. It looks like you'll put together a great show yesterday, but not a ton happening since. So if you're come in here for a newsy Day, I don't think it's gonna play.

NFL has a new kickoff role. Well yes, the nsay ever adopt it is this, do you see college football doing it next year?

I would need to know the I need to know the numbers on college football kickoffs and how often they're returned, and if it's like the NFL, because I personally love the new NFL kickoff rule. And if you haven't seen it yet, the kicker is going to remain where he kicks off from. Uh, but everybody else is going to be moved up. I can't remember the exact yardage lines. They're about forty okay, forty so okay. So so the the the coverage teams we moved up to the forty. The old team's gonna be on their own thirty. The return team, well, but the genius is it incentivizes the play to actually happen. If a kicker kicks it out of the end zone or into the end zone. If it's a touch back directly into the end zone, what is it a touch back to the thirty or thirty five?

I didn't I missed that one, but I think it's it's it's greater than it is now.

Yes, it's either the thirty or thirty five I want on top of my head, but so so so. The point being that now, as a kicker, it's almost like a golf shot. You want to get it as deep as you can without straight into the end zone so that your coverage team can have time to to try to get down there and make a play. There's this thing called the I make it. It's out complicated, really not. But there's a target zone which is the goal line to the twenty, and let some how kick the ball and it lands in the target zone and rolls into the end zone. Well then it's a touchback to the twenty. So their distancentivizes the returners from letting it roll. It like they basically did everything that they could to force people to return the ball.

Oh and wn the kicking team initiate go time. Do they have to wait for the ball to be caught? Is that what it is?

There is that is in the two minute rundown I watched. That was the one little detail that I missed. There is some rule about the ball needing to be in the target zone, I think before the coverage team can run. So it like has to It's gonna be tough to kind of discern it has to break the plane of the twenty before you can go start covering. But okay, here's want to be clear on those guys here doesn't want to be clear on So okay, where Greg hen just says, eventually NFL will be touched football. This play creates more contact like maybe maybe you're talking to hip drop and we can get it into hip drop rule. But like for everybody who wants to see more exciting plays and more contact, like this new kickoff rule basically forces you.

To return it.

So all of a sudden, if you have like a trend in holiday, if you have a Devin Hester who will talk about when you get into one Miami later day or in the mailbag, like you're that's valuable again. If you're a great coverage guy, that's valuable again. So I think you're seeing skill sets coming back. Royal pain sat in the XVl you to wait for the ball to be caught by their return.

I don't remember that. I think it is that. I think you have to wait till they go. I mean it gets rid of the full speed six yard sprint where the huge collisions. They're taking out the big collisions, but you are incentivizing a play to actually occur.

I'm sure if there is.

An on side kick, it'll go back to old on side kick. But what the XFL did me knowing this because I was part of the XFL. If you want to go for it or not go for it, but if you wanted to kick it on side kick. There wasn't a kick. It was a fourth and ten situation. So it's fourth and ten on your own thirty five. If you got it, you continue to drive. Obviously, if you did it, yoach, you got the ball from work?

Yeah, no, I think they're still doing a normal onside kick. But now you have to alert the ref and you got it, and you're you are again allowed to put six people on one side of the field, which you had not been able to. For whatever that's worth, justic Clayton Sen's for balls that don't go through the end zone, is it easier to take kickoffs to the house. So to be clear, you don't want two kickballs to the end zone. If you kick a ball straight in the end zone, you're going to give them very good field position. The one thing that remains to be seen is when you return it, what's your average starting field position, because again that's what you want to adjust. Like touchbacks will.

Be marked on the thirty yard line and no fair catches will be allowed, but.

Not always on the thirty yard line because again, if it hits in the target zone and rolls in, then it's like a skill shot from the kicker and you get it on the twenty, so you are incentivized to field it and return it. Very smart in my opinion. I they'll think eventually we got to do some about on side kicks. If they want to do like the fourth and twenty thing or whatever it is. I'd like to see something like that, because again, you gotta trust the math. Here, guys, eighty percent of kickoffs for touchbacks last year, Why that there's no point in doing that. There were two surprise on side recovers. I think there were maybe three or four for the year as a whole, Like, there's no real It's like why you made extra points a little sketchier and a little more interesting. So I like it. I like the rule, the hip drop rule. I mean, I think it's kind of like I feel for defenders. But at the end of the day, I don't think it's hard to understand the NFL's motivation, which is they want to do everything. They don't give a shit if it's unfair to the defense. They want to do everything that they can to try to help offensive superstars stay on the field. Yep, And I need to be mad about it, but I know we all know. If you're an NFL fan, how shitty it is when your star quarterback goes down.

Yes, well, protect to the quarterback for a long time now and the protection for a quarterbacks todly you have increased over the past few years, you know, and now you're you're protecting receivers down the field, quarterbacks. I mean Tom Brady's hit on this multiple times. Of used to be afraid to throw over in the middle of field. Now you don't really give a shit because those defensive but you know, dbs don't want to get a twenty five thousand dollars Fine, yeah, you know, so like it is.

It is.

It is a very much a offensive game. Yeah, it's it's going to be interesting to see, you know, because I think everyone always grows up they want to be on the offense. I think majority of you guys want to be on offense. You know, if you can catch, if you're an athlete, you want to be a receiver. You want to be a quarterback, you want to be a running back. Your best your best athletes when you're in peewee football are back there on offense.

Maybe the only difference to be on the lines. It feels like like like a taxi I mean, I love the line, but this should be athlete sexy, and it's more sexy you're getting sacks and tackles and stuff. But yes, everywhere else, Yes.

You want to be on offense. I think this only incentivizes people. More and more younger kids, the better athletes they are going to continue to uh want to be on that side the football. So yeah, it sucks for defenders. Defenders, it does, but it's like it's like Major League Baseball. Man, we want the long ball, we want offense, we want points.

That's all. That's It's all that matters. Man, score more points. Sorry for the clapping there. It is fifteen k by boys. Let's go fifteen ca let's go. Aaron has to chug a beer. I cannot wait to see this again.

Thursday, Thursday.

We tried to get him. I mean, we order you do it right now. I'll make PG make the call. Uh. We we tried to get Aaron to chugging beer at Disney and he's such a woss. All he did was send us a picture of him sipping on a full beer. What do we do? Do you want to do it today or we wan doing Thursday? God damn it. Why do we not talk about this, Okay, I get to pick the beer. I'll let Chat pick the beer. Chat this will do you. I'm not picker, I'm hey, shut the fuck up, Aaron. If I'm to cut Look how beautiful my fucking hair looks right now, dude. And this is a bad hair. Ye look at this, Look how thick and lusciousness is. And you are going to make me cut this into a Tampa fuck boy fade. Okay, You're gonna drink whatever beer? Uh should for three.

Months to drink the beer since it's taken you three months to cut your damn hair.

I mean no, no, no, no, It's a way smaller barrier of entry. And you know this, Okay. And I'm gonna be laughing at all of you when I finally come through it, because it's absolutely going to happen again. I just have to get through officiating my brother's weddings. Assholes. You want me to show up? You want me to show up with a fuck boy fade at my brother's wedding after not having it for years? You know how insane that is? Yeah? What beer should air and chug to celebrate South Aaron doesn't tell your beer till tee up cuts this here. I like that. No, No, Tom TB. I bought your warhammer army. I just bought an army of Britonians that eventually I'm gonna get to. I don't know when, but eventually I'm gonna get to. All right, Yeah, make him chuck some oldie. I agree, Thomas, all right, let's get in to mail bag. I mean I think we need to make him do something thick, right Like, I'm thinking like a Guinness or something that you get IPA or something classic city Hugger. I like it is Athens, classic city. Yes, okay, right on paying to be great content tea to cut your hair for the wedding and film the anger. Don't you love the show? Yes? But I also love my balls and my wife. My wife would finish the job that doctor Cockrell started if I was to engage with your plan run So I apologize, all right, mail Bag Question number one This comes from our guy James C. The transfer portal is so broken and Kaden Proctor's latest debacle is evidence of that. Can each of you give me three ways you fixed the transfer portal and end this madness? Okay? I want to be clear about where I stand on this. I will play your game and that will give you potential solutions. I still kind of naturally bounce off a little bit. I mean, I understand where you all are coming from, but the more I've lived in this world, I kind of continue to bounce off this idea that it's just clearly broken. All I see are kids getting paid, and that fucking makes me happy. It's what I would have loved in college. I'm happy for these guys getting their money, and I ain't mad that some dumbasses got played and gave them money that they shouldn't have. Right Like I I don't know, I.

Asked, I asked. I asked Pekel this yesterday. You know, I said, rank rank from least detrimental to most detrimental. When it comes to the changes in colleforotball for the past three years, portal nil uh, conference realignment.

What is confrence realignment most testamental? Okay, Portal second, just because it is centivizes some of the things that people seem to hate. Though again, I think players and administrators are excuse me, I think codes administrators have that latitude. So I would go realignment portal and ile. I mean, I don't think any l is a problem. I like, I know, I.

Don't either think it's the least of all the migree.

Well, it's not. It's not even a problem. It's not even at least it's not okay, But how to fix it?

Certainly you're not gonna go all three when it goes, I'll go one, go one, Okay, I'll go the I'll go the obvious one, which is what Cole Kublick talked about, where if you ever do reach like a situation where you're entering contracts that in and of itself is going to basically calm everything down in my opinion.

Because deck cuts away from tampering ability that that distancentivizes players from basically being on the free agent open market twenty four to seven, so like again, or distance avises money from constantly reaching out to players and trying to snag the So yeah, if you had more, and maybe it's take a contract situation where you are still allowed like a one time transfer. I don't know exactly what it would be, but certainly some sort of contracts that don't even talk about nil would still by extension rain in some of the chaos.

I think for me, the number one thing that this is just overall called football, which I think would help with the transfer portal is clean up the calendar. Make the calendar a lot easier and accessible to Like, when when is this actually going to occur? I think we talked about it back in you know, end of November and all through December. December was an absolute mess. We're trying to talk about bowl games while we're also trying to talk about the playoffs. We're also talking about signing Day, We're also talking about the transfer portal. It was a fucking nightmare of events going on in a matter.

Of three or four weeks.

Can we clean up the calendar first, get football organized a little bit better from January to December. I guess from August to you know, you know through July, because that's the kind of football season. Cleaning the calendar will help clean up win certain times of the year the portal's going to be open. So that's my first thing. Clean up college football in general. Clean Up the calendar will help.

And I mean, I don't know if I think my third thing is really just my first one. So this maybe your set D third one. Well, I don't think I have three individual reasons. I was going to steal your reason just now is reason number two, because I think that's solid.

I mean again, I think would you eliminate one of this, would you eliminate one of the periods and just have one.

Rather than no. I like the two because I think you need to know where you stand after spring and fall. Both from the teams. I think enjoy having a spring window as well and immediately after the season, or that they can because you can go take advantage of it, and the players should as well because if they're not liking where they're at. I think, I think honestly personally, me personally, not that I think any of this is wrong. I'm a judge rule and that you can transfers many times you could. I did like it when it was one transfer and then a graduate transfer. I did kind of like that setup. So you but again, that's basically the first reason. So like, I don't even know that I have three reasons to fix because.

I think that's a big one. I don't like the multiple transfers, like like, you get one opportunity if you want to transfer again, you have the old old school rules.

You got to sit out.

Then the next free window quote unquote free window you have is if you're a grand transfer, then you can kind of do whatever the hell you want from there. But I just, you know it, just I go back to the Proctor thing. It just that is frustrating to me that you have that much leeway to kind of just bounce around. I don't like that. I'm just being sorry, Like I'm.

I'm almost new.

I'm all for and I honestly like the conference re alignment. I'm all for two super conferences, like I'm the direction of college football excites me. Besides some of the ability flexibility these players, you kind of bounce around like damn jelly beans from one team to the next. So I don't like that aspect of it. So contracts clean up the calendar in general, will help kind of dictate when these windows are open. Then obviously limited the amount of times these kids can jump from one team to a next.

Yeah again, but contracts and limiting are kind of the same reason. Yes, be fair to the answer. Sorry if that's kind of a shit answer, James, But that's how I get.

And I will say this about people saying that, like, hey, let's limit it to one window.

Oh and actually maybe Chat's right. That's what I want to bring up. Chat is saying just a spring portal window, which just maybe yeah, maybe that, maybe that is better, Maybe that is better. Actually yeah, I mean I will say this. I think maybe that's.

The actual third reason I think coaches would prefer the spring then the fall, because at least you get to see all those young kids that maybe were, you know, on the scout team the year before.

You get a.

Full spring you know, workouts, spring ball, fifteen practices plus the game to kind of truly evaluate like, Okay, is this guy the guy or not because it's kind of hard to evaluate, like you can get this, you know, three or four or five star freshman, say I got this this four star lunch. Sure, and he's a freshman and he's on the scout team. I really don't know what I got just yet. I really want to see him in spring and say, your starter graduates, just stay with me here, your started graduates, Do you want to risk seeing what that kid is all about in spring? Or do you want to secure a guy in the portal in December?

You know what? You kind of become a little impatient.

So I would like to see them kind of give a spring to the young guy, see what they look like. If you don't like him at that point, then go dip out there and go get someone in the port off the spring.

Yeah, you know what I actually Ben Franklin talked about he never wanted to have an opinion so strong that in light of new information he wouldn't change his mind. And now that we've talked it out, uh, that would I think. I actually like just a spring portal window. I think that actually probably behooves the players as well because it kind of forced them to really go for it. And then if you still fall short and you aren't happy with this situation, okay, then you transfer and it's not like you're I mean, you're still going to have a market for your services, like you're not being held back. I'm thinking any sort of unfair way.

It also limited, it limits what we the issue we came with this past December when you have a backup quarterback for the University of Texas having.

To yeah that was down with the playoffs.

Because he has to get you know, in in the you know, in the in the window in time, or you have a situation like Alabama or like any you obviously there's always going to be exceptions, like if you're if your coach leaves, I think window opens just like it is now. We'll put kids in a situation with an extended playoff time to make a decision in those three weeks where you're trying to get ready for a playoff game, to decide if you're coming back or staying. I don't think is healthy for anyone.

So I'm with you.

I think if you can just eliminate that December one, clean up the calendar in December, and then just have one spring window, I think we're golded man.

I feel like that was good, like conversation just now. I mean, you know that that's getting in the room and just chopping up the issues figuring out. Gul sap snaps mailbag today, bears GM said it's hard for college coaches to give criticism because if the players get too much criticism, they just transfer. Then, he said that the players are getting soft thoughts said this a McAfee. I'm sure there is an element of this that is true in terms of players be like, oh, well fuck you, then I'll leave. I can't help but feel also that this maybe does feel like of a bit of excuse for coaches. I mean, I don't know. I was somebody that responded well to being motherfucked. I liked being coached in that style. Ye, And I still think there's a lot of coaches that maybe not not as much as not like the truest of old school whereas truly my way or the highway. But like, if you're a badass coach, you can still motherfuck your guys and they'll listen to you, or maybe you do have to adjust your style based on because some guys will still respond well to that and other guys what like, some guys need encouragement and sometimes and some guys need to be told like you fucking suck pick it up.

Yeah, And as I think the great coaches know which players they can motherfucking which players they can't. Yeah, to me, I think that's I've been around playf coaches that I've seen them like they know which guys they can kind of dig into a little bit more and other guys they kind of no, like complete soft to them, but understand like I can't be out of here cussing this kid down for the whole team where he's going to go into a shell. Yeah, I think that's one and.

So my old man always talked about playing quarterback in the NFL. Is he had to discern how to talk to his linemen, right, the guys that would respond well to him shit talking them, and the guys that needed to be like, come on, you got this man, let's go. You can do this. Yeah, you have to.

But I also think another thing too, is I think it depends on the coach and the situation. Like I think, if you're Kirby Smart, You're gonna m f whoever you want because guess what, that kid leaves, you got another five star or you get another guy.

Yeah, Like a lower tier coach may be a little bit worried.

About, you know, some guys leaving because he doesn't have the depth to back it up. So it may depend on location, university kind of you know, you don't have the same kind of death as the big boys.

Well, and that's also tho why I'm saying they'll be wary of running too far with this in the anti player side, because this is also kind of an easy excuse for a shitty coach. It's like, why are my guys listening to me? Or why are they leaving? Okay, well, I mean you're the coach, bro, that's on you. If they're not. Now you can you can sit there and you can blame the transfer portal or whatever, or you could look in the mirror and say what am It's like? It's like what they teach alcoholics to do. Right. You have to shift your thinking instead of saying, like, why is this happening to me? Even if it feels unfair to yourself, you have to say what did I do to cause this? And if you're willing to do that, that's going to help you immensely. Uh. Where was it when there was a comment that I wanted to get to on this? But what do you think about specifically the element of the players being softer nowadays? That's another thing that I don't know that I buy. I mean maybe compared to like the seventies in the eighties, But then when you all say the probably culture as a whole is like, I don't know, I still think like the soft football players don't make it and the tough ones due I don't know.

I'm with you, Uh all right?

Mail by a question for two from Snaps CFP at you dot com Volume Snaps CEF Snaps. See if you're volume STAPs CFP. Damn it, I can't remember now, sorry PG. Let me know from Lori ah, shout out Laurie, what would you change about each other? And you could change something about each other? Wow, this is very presumptuous.

We had a couples there the other night. There's three couples. Somehow we got talking about which got really, for a quick second a little uncomfortable asking whose celebrity crushes are and my wife and I've never discussed that before.

Hmm, that was it. I'm sure. I'm sure no wide sweeping takeaways were made. It's like you're like, oh, no, Jessica Biel. It's like, what, so you only like fucking brunettes? Huh? Is that it? I'm like, no, I don't know.

My wife canay like two girls right off the bat, like you probably like so and so and so and so. I'm like, I have honestly no fucking idea who either those girls are. Put she showed me I like one of the two.

I was like, I agree that she would be one. But the fact says that's a dangerous topic. Generally in a marriage, you can get away with celebrity crushes. More dangerous is if your wife ever starts chatting up about which friends you find the most attractive, I would say proceed with caution in those conversations and the right relationship. Judge it for yourself. Okay. But again, if you tell her that you think friend X is the hottest of her friends, she is never going to forget that. That would be turned into her brain. Uh in like like as if it was carved into stone. So just to understand that who so this is?

This is who she said would be my crush? And I kind of agree. I never really thought of this before.

Would be Anna de Armas, Anna Dharmas Okay? Yes? Yeah, which I'm like, yeah? Who she said for you? He said that for me because I couldn't think of one. I couldn't think of one. There's a good classic move, guys, who is yours? And Dharmas has a has kind of a sharing type of look too, so I could see why she would say that. Ye okay, who would mine be? Yes?

Yours be?

I always, growing up had a thing for Hayten Pantier. I mean, dude, she was so hot to remember the Titans. No, okay, gross, you just agreed to care being hot and remember the Titans. That's sick. That's the little girl for that. She went on be very hot. I mean no, she.

Way to go air and you failed the pedophile test. I was just agreat with I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, no, but I mean, I don't know if I could handle her. She dated what's his name, the giant Ukrainian fighter Clitchko. I think she was married to Clinchkow for a while. But Hayden was always.

One Alice Eve. I guess I have a thing for blonde. Alice Eve was one angela White, definitely near the tops hundred, maybe the number one. Uh, mea Malkova, you like them curvy girls? MEA Malkova, I mean goaded at the top of the list as well.

Michel Star.

I mean, I mean not for me. But yes, you know, I've never I've I've I've been in you know, I've seen her work, certainly Golf's House of Sidney Sweeney. She does seem to be the the it girl of the moment in any ways Sidney does.

Uh.

But yeah, I don't know if I have right now. Maybe Florence Pugh would be my would be my main celebrity crush. She is you give me a quizzical look? She I remember first seeing her in that Black Widow movie that nobody really remembers, because why would you? But I thought it was like, okay, it's pretty fun. I was like, whoa, she's like electric, like she's like a charisma, and then she was she was awesome in Oppenheimer. So probably that I need to talk about it.

Yeah, all right. So it was the question, sorry, to change the topic.

What would you change about each other? If you could change something about each other?

Uh?

Would I? Yea? Uh? To be completely honest, I am not. This is not just lip service, y'all. Aaron is a damn good partner in a job like this. I mean he works hard, he does the research. He's very relaxed, but not lazy like he like I really. It's it's kind of crazy how well we clicked, considering I didn't know anything about him before he started doing the show, and I was like, you know, is he gonna be like one of these quarterback douchebags? Like I didn't know how I was going to go. The one thing I need Aaron to do is just do a bit more drugs with me, and if he once seed some mushrooms. I told you I'd do the mushrooms next time we see you do some more drugs with me and then we'll be good to go.

I guess the one thing I would change about Teapot is just the last five minutes of the show, rambling as everyone show the last find it of I don't know for ending the show or not ending the show, So I don't want to like jump into extended if you are ending it. So I'm kind of like dipping my toe in the water. Do I really want to do I really want this conversation to continue? Probably not, but like how do I end it? So it's like it's really awkward for me. It's like that that's five minutes, just something.

Yeah, he's got a tea time, guys, and I'm trying to keep from his from from the wait day.

Good news, the wife did say she'll drop off Mattix on Friday. Wow, I cannot believe that you got off. For those that don't know Aaron, despite the fact that he does not have work on Friday, his wife is a high powered attorney that does text his wife to drop off the kids in the morning just because he has a for fun tea time with friends.

Well, I made the tea time and then we just got an email from the school reminding us that there's no school on Friday or Monday. I can't adjust the tea time. So yeah, he was like, hey, Max, that's school with Friday. Can you drop.

Because I got to eat? Uh And looks if you're if you're long young and listening to this on the drugs front, you know, be careful and just be careful. So I'll say, uh, yeah, I guess I should have a better way to explain that anyway. Mail bad Question number three from Craig R. Settle the debate, who wins a hypothetical game between two thousand and one Miami Hurricanes and the twenty nineteen LSU Tigers. What is the final score? This is something that I wish I had a clear cut answer. I think there's a tempting clear cut answer, which is to compare Joe Burrow and Ken Dorsey and say that that puts LSU over the top, because Burrow's season is still the most amazing thing I think we've ever seen in college football in the modern era. That said, Ken Dorsey was a two time Heisman finalist. When I was looking up today. He did win the Maxwell. The stats are not as gaudy, but as we know, it's a different style and time football wise, I do think that Miami edges out LSU on the overall talent. So you just have to ask yourself, is the Joe Burrow Dorsey gap enough to make up for that talent gap.

I think the entire offense, I just you look at the scores of LSU that year and even some of the teams they faced, and the points they put up is just like, oh my god, there's jaw dropping to go back and look at some of the stat lines from Burrow and the receivers, and it's not like LSU's defense was anything super special. They or good enough. I mean, especially the second half of the season.

I think they had to be secondary. They weren't like two two dominant. The line that had a couple of guys, but like Christian Fulton, Derek Stingley, Junior, Grant Delpit, like those are all really really really.

Defense too good. I think Lu's offense is too good. I think Lsho's offense and the the just too many good receivers with the quarterback that had statistically and and just eye test wise, probably the best single season that I've ever seen as a quarterback. And I listen, I love the Miami team, like Miami was on my favorite teams growing up. My mom with Miami, I had a Kent Dorsey jersey for goodness sakes, Oh no, especially the number eleven. You know, I was rocking. That's like that was one of my teams back in the day. But the firepower on that LSU offense to me, you know, I know there's a bunch of studs on that defense from Miami. I think it's too much to handle, way, way way too much to handle. So I take LSU.

Forty two thirty one and don't forget that forty two on a deepense. Though, well let's go through some of the names here, because forty two on that defense does feel a bit presumptuous. It's just that I think that, like Miami also maybe went it put up. I think Miami's offense have its like forty two to the year. And by the way, real quick, guys, if you put hashtag Snap's mailbag in a comment, I'm gonna I'm copy pasting them onto the document, so like you can put them in whenever and I'll get to them by the end of the show. But I mean, here's some of the Miami names. In fact, if you just look at NFL Hall of Fame candidates this year, and I think this is some guys already being in. Devin Hester, Andre Johnson, Reggie Wayne, Vince Wilfork, Jesse Armstead, Jeff Fiegles all Hall of Fame candidates. It also had Edriy, Sean Taylor, Jonathan Ville, My Andrell Roll, Jerome McDougall, Clinton Portis, Willison Gahee and Frank Gore were the backfield. Jeremy Shockey at tight end. I mean, and and look, Elisu has obviously like Justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase, Joe Burrow, I mean, Clyde Jalaira is a first round pick. I mentioned some of the defenders. I think there's a couple of underrated guys that lsu offensive line. I mean justice NFL offseason, you saw Damian Lewis Sina fifty plus million dollar contract for guard. You saw Lloyd Kushberry the center sign for over fifty million dollars.

The difference in the draft, I mean what Miami had seven.

I mean at thirty, Miami would end up having thirty eight players selected from that roster. I think EL should have thirty. That next year, though Miami had seventeen Els who had fourteen, but else you had ten in the top three rounds, which was a record. How about this, Twenty one of the twenty two starters from that LSU team ended up on an NFL roster, which is kind of insane.

Did you answer it? What's who you taking? What's the score?

I mean my answer me is something because I'm biased. I watched Joe Burrow first hand. Somebody in the chat Chance mentioned the will to win. I say this all the time. Watching Joe Burrow that year was like watching a Marvel movie in that when you watch it, like, you know, Captain America is gonna be fine. You know what I'm saying. He's gonna fucking win. I don't care how bad it looks. I don't care if there's any sketchy moments where maybe it looks like he's on the ropes. He's gonna reach down, he's gonna throw the fucking shield, and he's gonna win. Like that was Joe Burrow. I mean, even they got down seventeen to seven in the Natty and credit to the defense that came down, you know, ended up shut him down. But yeah, so yeah, bias incoming. I agree, damn good like recency.

Bias shoe and that Jami Hip ended up thirty one to forty nine four sixty three five touchdowns, Brooks rushing in a touchdown.

The defense, Yeah, I know, I know, but still, yeah, that was a good clums of defense.

It's true. Yeah, I mean, let's see what they did the Georgia's defense the City Championship game, twenty to thirty three to fifty four touchdowns.

Bro he threw sixty touchdowns at fifteen games. Uh give me, yeah, give me lsu like thirty one twenty seven. But again I now, But then it gets even more complicated. Are we playing two thousand and one rules or twenty nineteen rules?

Yeah, uh, you gotta play the newest rules the game.

Okay, Yeah, but I'm saying I don't know. I'm giving I might like split my score and give Miami the small win. If we're back in two thousand and one rules and we're just fucking knocks off. Yeah, Like I'm sitting Sean Taylor and ned Rick to kill Joe Burrow, like just straight up to kill Joe Burrow, to see to see if he what what what will happen? So again, you can't go wrong. Both incredible, don't if you're a Miami fan listening and you say I'm wrong, like I ain't gonna fight you, I'm biased, but uh yeah, give me give me Joe just because again, what it's impossible not to feel like Ken Dorsey might have been good in college and he was like thirty eight and too as a starter, but look what Joe did in the NFL compared to Kin. Now that's fair, but you know, it is what it is, all right, let's see. Yeah, that's why it's a possible answer says that Yeah, fun though funded. I mean again, what's another way? Vint Well for Jesse armstend Feagles read Taylor Bilma role, it's I mean, the backfield of portis McGahee and Gore alone is mind bossed.

So is l s U twenty nineteen. The greatest team of all time?

Again, I would say greatest offense of all time, full stop, without a doubt.

We're like, wait, if you're better than torn, you know two thousand and one Miami, Like what other teams are we throwing in the cover twenty.

Twenty, Bama twenty twenty was one that people always do in there, and and again that's impossible to judge because of the COVID stuff. I mean, no doubt that was an unbelievably good team, but they were also juiced up because nobody handled better COVID better than did Nick Saban. So that becomes a weird game to play, you know. I'm there's if you go and you look at like some like world War two years and stuff, because remember the transfer portal existed during World War two. There are some insane it's either it's one of the military schools. They can't remember exactly which one, but they just.

Transfer there because you don't have to go you couldn't get drafted.

Yeah, yeah, well, and also I think they were paying him. I'm not or there were some reason. I read a book.

I forgot what it was called, but they what was the book called? But yeah, you couldn't get drafted if you went to one of the military schools. So all these kids kept transferring to them and they wont like three straight natties I believe.

And then yeah, there was nineteen forty five Army is the team I remember on one of the snaps we went into this team, but they finished nine and zero. They should have five of their nine opponents. Notre Dame was second in the country. They beat Notre Dame forty eight to zero. Penn was six. They beat Penn sixty one to zero. Their total score of the season was four to twelve to forty six. Like, I'm a believer when comparing eras you want to say, how are you compared to your peers? And that's maybe the craziest year ever, But again an asterisk in the form of World War Two and having the resources Honey had, these otherhes didn't have. Yeah, Nat Level says, holy shit, have just looked up Burrows nineteens. That's sixty touchdowns of six picks.

Yes, sh it's insane. Golf South snaps Mel Aaron. How in the world did your whole family go to sleep four from eight pm and Disney World or four a PM and Disney World. Did you all have like a five I think you're asking, like, how did we go to bed at eight?

Oh?

The whole question. Did you all get up for like five am? Every day? We had a nice, deluxurious sort with no outside noise, So he said, yeah, I mean it stays loud, fireworks.

And all that. Like we did have the fire I think we had the fireworks the one night kind of woke me up. But day and the kids were exhausted, so they sepp to the fireworks. We let little man stayups about nine, so we missed the Disney fireworks, but the Apcot fireworks were later on, but he was so dead asleep that didn't wake come up. So yeah, we were all asleep between eight and nine. Woke up at seven, so we got about ten and eleven hours of sleep every night.

Beast, I push, I pushed my kids. Uh, I make them, I make them if we're staying for fireworks and make I mean, I'm makeing bro. We stayed at when we didn't make.

The fireworks the first night, so yeah, for sure.

When we went to Makeey's Christmas party, though, the fam stayed till midnight. Yeah, we were riding tea cups at midnight. My kids looked like they were on drugs. They were so out of it. But I was like, I was like Clark Griswold and that bitch. We're gonna have fun. Let's do goat dog hashtag mailbag you have to come up with a color scheme for your new football team.

What is it?

Side thought UGA's baseball uniforms are so garbage. You have red, black and silver, one of the coolest color schemes availab and you make your your gate. You have Charlie Condon out there looking like he's wearing a practice jersey. Anyway, what color scheme did you do?

MM?

I liked black and gold. I it's so sad, but it's so chalky. But I do like black and gold too, like the Oakland, Michigan uniforms that Golkie was rocking in March Madness. It looks so good, dude, Yeah, it looks so good.

Like my high school, my high school. Look at my high school jersey right now in the office, and it's it's where we were. Black, gold, white and just look so nice. Especially I'm all black little gold white numbers.

If I wanted to copy someone, I still think that. Yeah, there we go, seet in and producer black and gold. Chatta you see have agreed. I still think Minnesota has maybe the best uniforms in the country. Those Minnesota are home UNI some about those kind of brownish colors. I just think look fan fucking fantastic.

So miss powder Blue?

Uh yeah, sure, yeah, yep. People love powder blue for sure. Hashta la Mom twenty twenty asked T Bob, Uh, we know Hester has a son who will playing for LSU hopefully soon. Do you have any boys?

So?

How old are they? I've got one sudden will be offered by everyone. He's one years old. He's a big chunk right now. We'll see, you know, maybe quarterback skips a generation Aaron. Maybe he'll end up be in a quarterback and I'll have you working with him.

It'll be six seven. He's gonna be the next Lorenzo if he plays quarterback.

Damn good dok podcast, What do you think about the Wyoming jersey? Love the Wyoming jersey too? That that is also one that is up there. I don't know what it is.

All rights that failbag will Wiser thoughts on Drew Aller. Can he take pennch State to the next level? And will he?

I think he can. I said this a couple months ago, we were talking about Penn State. Just for me personally, my experience as a quarterback, red shirt freshman year. Things are happening like crazy, especially in today's I'm sure even worse than today's are. With dani Al and all the responsa whatever, it's it's it's true. I know you hear it all the time. But from the experience for a four year starter, year one to year two was my biggest jump. I went from what like twenty four touchdowns to thirty six touchdowns and we're playing now we were a six and seven team. Next year we're facing LSU and T Bob in Atlanta. We're ten and two. Yeah, yeah, massive massive jump from year one to year two. So big kid, good arm, you know, did some really nice things last year. And I think you said this well too before t like it's a little on him, and it's also on his coaching staff, like do they let him open up the spring do they let him open up in fall camp to allow him to build the confidence to go out there and have a successful see, Like do they take the you know, the the little baby bit off of him?

Yeah, Aaron nailed it right. I agree, So I wrote down I think Drew Allercan, the question is, well, James Frank can let him also, Yeah, it's really hard to verbalize what Aaron's getting at with the difference that a year makes. Like you just feel your first year starting like your train hurtling down the tracks, going way too fast and you're just trying to stay on the rails. You're taking these hairpin turns where everybody's having to like jump to the opposite side of the car so it doesn't tip over, whereas the second year, you're you're you're hitting your schedules, you're you're taking the turn slow, and you're arriving on time of your destinations. It's just it's just massively, massively different. But again, well the coaches let him all right, hashtag snaps mail bag. Oh actually maybe it air. What can I talk about for ten minutes today? Here at the end? Oh, I was thinking about this on the show this morning.

Dude, what coins you're getting to We had another one.

No meat based vending machines, okay, and not like jerky and shit, but I'm talking wet meat. Like you want some boot am, Maybe you want like a ribbi or something. You pop into my refrigerated vending machine. You get it. You got dinner? Okay. So you're like at the ballpark with your kids or something. You're fucking annoyed because you have time to go to the grocery store to that date. Well, don't worry. The meat machines got you. Just pop out a little steak, a little pork chop, maybe snap spailback. Do you think the portal causing a lot more roster turnover the past? Do you think the portal is causing a lot more roster turn over the past? Does that make simplification of the offensive defensive systems more likely? Womack is going a bit more simplified than sabing. That's interesting. So what he's gonna because of roster turnover? Do you need to simplify since you're not gonna have the time on task that you went in the past to develop guys in a system?

Yeah, you have to. You have to condense everything. It's it's your culture, your playbook for your culture. You know, I've talked to the coach about this before, Like you have this whole master plan of like how to develop a kid for mentally and physically for the next four years. Now it's like, all right, well that's you can't do that because you I'm not going to have most of these kids for four years. So like you simplify that, you simplify the offense, you simplify the defense. But I also think a little bit when it comes to skinematic, especially an offense, it depends on who you do have back. Like, if you do have a quarterback back, you don't want to simplify it too much because you can you can the other pieces can figure it out. And plus a little bit different from when T Bob and I played, these guys have way more meeting time team. Yeah, like yeah, we honestly didn't get to see our coaches besides spring ball, Like that's it. Yeah, you know, from January to August, the only time we saw our coaches were those fifteen days. Now they get walked through time, they get meeting time with coaches, so you are granted more time to essentially sit down and you know, with these coaches learn to playbook compared to you know, just fifteen days, you know, a decade ago.

I yeah, I mean I think I don't I get like the logic behind thinking that you simplify things even more. But like I think this has always been the case with college football, Like there's always been a ton of roster turnover because you're constantly recruiting new classes losing old classes. And it's always had to be simple because this is not in the NFL, where you're full time professional. Where Like in the NFL, everybody's talent level is basically even with small little differences, and so the mental part becomes a deciding factor. In college, you have to make sure everybody gets it so that you can get your most talented guys on the field. Like in college you have to almost come down to the brains of your players, whereas the NFL, the players have to come up to your level or the it's like, okay, well whatever, your cut doesn't matter. Uh So, I think it's always been pretty simple relatively. What is your favorite stadium entrance?

Could be Virginia Tech.

Right I I I mean one of the jump is Oklahoma. Oh yeah, with the horse the way I mean darut Sandstorm is pretty sick in Tech. That's a kickoff song. Uh, I know it isn't I know it Isn't It was when I played our Virginia Tech.

No, it's their walkout.

No no Samstorm at South Carolina. Oh yeah, sorry, my bad? Ye no, no, no, you're right, Virginia Tech's a great answer. But there is something about a covered wagon just fucking getting it with like ninety thousand screaming people that I think is pretty badass. Although it was so funny when it flipped over. Oh my god, it was so funny. And when that big flipped over, what a sign of what was to come for Oklahoma. I'm loving too that Jack gets me on the machine. Look go dog b five for New York Strip. Hell yeah, pg says chili from a vending machine. Count me in, yes, see Aaron One day one day you'll understand Maroni la music meat machine? Is that what QB one called himself in college? Okay? Yeah? The uh what are those little one of those little one of those little sausages? A little beanie ween? What do they call it? Why can't I remember this good joke? I dismissed. Yeah, Khalil Butler's is s tire foreshadowing from the wagon? I agree? I agree. Okay, let's do a couple more snaps. Mail bag. Is Harrold Pergin's struggle and the interior more mental or physical? One needs to having to make him the weapon that we all know he can. I think it's more mental Vienna sausages, Thank you God, That's what I'm looking for. That was Aaron sick game. Anyway. Uh, you think it's more mental? Why?

I think there's a lot more. Yes, the process. I mean they talked to us about it last yearly St I did before a game, like when he was freshman year, he played defensive end, you know, probably that hybrid position. It was like seaball, getball, just go with the true back. Now, all of a sudden you have to you know, readout offensive linemen and pulling guards and separate movements. You have to you know, take on a back one on one, an option route. There's just a lot more that he has to process mentally. And I'm not saying like he can't do it. I'm just saying like that's the difference. Like I think physically he's more than gifted to play outside or in the middle. I just think there's a lot more you have to handle on the inside than just you know, I said, Seaball, get ball when you're playing that hybrid spot.

Also, I don't. I mean, again, it's really not hard to see how badly Matt House was doing a communicating scheme to his players, Like there was just so many mas on that defense, and really you only saw Harold Pergage in the middle for one game. I think that's one of the misconceptions of this is he played Florida State in the middle and then he immediately moved to Nickel Sam, which is weird in its own right, Like, so he's been entire offseason with him here. After one week you're like, nah, fuck it, go over here. So it's just really bad management all around in that regard. I believe Blake Baker's gonna get him right, but we'll see that level with a really good answer on the entrance is Florida State? That is true? Yeah, having the horse with the spear and the logo. I mean, come on, bra, that shit's tighted me to now. We just need a Florida State Oklahoma game where you straight up have the wagon and uh and the horsemen do battle like back in the day, like like on the old frontier days. Let's see. Oh, I like it to hear you then I like it, guys. That's like, that's that's the wrap it up right there, y'all hear that?

What beer might take?

What beer?

Mydreaking Thursday? I need to can we can we pick the beer out? It's their last thing for the day.

I mean I could give you so you really don't want to do Guinness.

I really don't want to do something heavy?

Well, I mean I'm gonna give you. I'm happy so you can get the funk over there. You're you're you're not getting like a bud light or something. Okay, I don't want to like, don't give me a dark beer. What if I give you like a delicious Belgian beer?

Okay, okay, they're very very tastes good. If yes, yes, yes, yes, I like Gnis.

I do like. I just don't want to just I mean, how do you like? I p as not really because ghosts in the Machine is pretty incredible. I mean maybe we got Okay, never mind, Chad says it's either gotta be Budweiser or Pbry did not say that, PG said that. No, no, no, yeah, I agree Thomas. Guinness is actually not bad to chug. It's so smooth.

Okay, you know what.

Okay, I'm kind of starting to leave, but heavy, boys, No, let's do Guinness. I'm starting to lean but heavy. What do you think you Okay, let's do this. I'll do a poll on my Twitter. Maybe we'll get our finalists in the chattier, so we'll have butt heavy as an option. We'll have Guinness. Uh then, but life, let's just see if there's there's people have a lot. A lot of people mentioned PBR. A lot of people mentioned a lot of PBR. So we'll go PBR, Budweiser guests three choices and see.

Uh.

I'll never forget dude. One of my buddies wives in college. She was I mean four ten ninety five pounds and she would only drink but heavy. We'll be on spring break and you know, doing classic douchey spring break stuff. We'd be like building a giant beer mid and there would just be but heavies interspersed throughout. We're like, god, damn, that's a lot of butt heavy. Then sure enough it was little Ley the whole time, just chugging away. Thank you, Yeah, car bombs are incredible, lock Hessie, I agree. Uh, thank you to everyone for the fifteen k. Guys, y'all are the best. We love you. We will be back on Thursday for another staff slide, Chuck of Palooza going down this Thursday. Tell your friends, Tell Scott Dice keep are on the show. Teat What can I talk about? I mean, I did go into a deep hole about Japanese vending machines today and whether or not the urban myth, whether or not the urban myth that the Japanese used to sell used panties and vending machines is true or not. And what I gathered is that it was true in kind of the early aughts, but then it got to be too big of a deal and too well known, and there was problems with like underage high school girls using fake id's to sell their panties and stuff, and so they made a law against it. And now there's vending machines that sell new panties that are manufactured to appeared used or just like new panties in general. So it was not a full myth. But they don't exist anymore. Yes, Pg. Twenty five K. And we sell my panties. I agree.

It's a great I go there, we go, all right, boys, I'll practice.

We'll be ready for Thursday. Oh see ya Thursday. Love y'all, lady y'all. The volume
