00:01:58,560 I am so excited to be back with you all as we have. 20 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,360 I've not talked to you guys in a while. 21 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,520 So all my fans say hello to you. 22 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,320 Of course, you know how you just shout out my European and Asian friends. 23 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,160 So shout out to you guys as well. 24 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,600 But we are going to jump right into the news of the day. 25 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:21,160 My fairly instantaneous reaction to the arrival of prime time in college football. 26 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,760 Prime time has arrived in FBS. 27 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,000 It is now officially prime time in the power of five. 28 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,520 And the big 12s on notice. 29 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,640 The patch 12s on notice. 30 00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:36,920 That game was so amazing. 31 00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:41,600 And as you guys know, if you guys listen to the podcast, you guys know Ico's High School 32 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:42,600 Football. 33 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,960 We had our opening game. 34 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,280 Didn't go well. 35 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,000 We were pretty outmatched there in our opening game, but we'll shake back next week. 36 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,000 Don't worry. 37 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:58,320 But if you guys know, I coach High School Football and I was talking to one of the fellow coaches 38 00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,320 of mine. 39 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:06,160 And we were saying, man, the hype around Deon's first game in Colorado is ridiculous. 40 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,840 Because when he got to Jackson State, it was the attention on Jackson State. 41 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,160 Because he's talking about what needs to be fixed in HBCUs. 42 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,080 He's talking about what needs to be done in this. 43 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,000 He's discussing how they won't just take, well, he calls them body bag games. 44 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,120 Where he's got outmatched guys going to these power five schools just to earn a little money. 45 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,800 He's trying to get names on the back of the jerseys. 46 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,600 He's trying to bring attention to and all this other stuff. 47 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,200 It was so much of a movement. 48 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,960 And he spoke so much that people were forced to watch. 49 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,240 Oh, his son is starting quarterback. 50 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,960 Oh, his son is starting safety. 51 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,560 Oh, his son runs social media. 52 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:39,560 You know what I'm saying? 53 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,600 It was so much attention brought by Deon when he arrived. 54 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,600 Or as he called himself, Coach Prime. 55 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:51,000 And also when Coach Prime arrived at Jackson State. 56 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:57,320 Because coverage had never been done like that at the HBCU level. 57 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,160 Attention had never been brought like that to the HBCU level. 58 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:06,240 TV cameras, money, financial opportunities, et cetera, had never been brought like that 59 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,920 to the HBCU level. 60 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,640 And so when he arrived, people admittedly wanted him to succeed because they knew the 61 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:18,960 more he succeeded at J State, the more that people were going to watch, pay attention 62 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,760 and care about HBCUs. 63 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,960 Ultimately, that was proven correct. 64 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:28,320 His three years there, he had a great first year that they lost two or maybe three games. 65 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,240 And then he undefeated back to back years. 66 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,240 Runs to his swag. 67 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,720 Does never collect the black house of war championship. 68 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,320 I think that's going to be something on his resume he would want back. 69 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,240 He never collected a black. 70 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,240 Excuse me. 71 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:47,040 He never collected a black college football championship because the awards not a poll 72 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,040 award. 73 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:54,000 So it used to be a poll award where they come to vote Southern won it 2003 same yellow. 74 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,560 She won that championship game. 75 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,800 It was amazing at Banarut because of those two events. 76 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:00,800 But it's a poll. 77 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:01,800 It's a poll award. 78 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:08,480 We're now with the celebration bowl, the me I can the swag of the two dominant HBCU 79 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:09,480 conferences. 80 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,360 So their champions play in the celebration bowl. 81 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,520 The winners declared the black college football champion. 82 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,480 And he came up short back to back years in the celebration bowl. 83 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,040 And then ultimately he leaves for Colorado. 84 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:25,320 When he makes the move to Colorado, as you guys know, there was a lot of people who wanted 85 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,880 him to fail. 86 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:32,280 Everybody felt like a HBCU doubted it. 87 00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:36,480 Everybody who wanted to see him now to give opportunity and thought he may be jumping 88 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,320 the line on some people wanted him to fail. 89 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:41,920 A lot of people wanted him to fail. 90 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:46,760 Then the way he did his roster, you know, we chronicle that he and they spoke about 91 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,800 him on the game several times. 92 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:54,520 The answer is has 69 new scholarship players in Colorado. 93 00:05:54,520 --> 00:06:00,840 69 by far and away the most in the country. 94 00:06:00,840 --> 00:06:07,080 He did it in a way that was previously inconceivable because the one time to me five years ago, 95 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,640 the rules are possible because of the one time transfer rule doesn't exist. 96 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,400 And also the way the transfer portal is today, it doesn't exist. 97 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:18,000 And he this would have been a much longer rebuild at Jackson State and Colorado Jackson 98 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,000 State. 99 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:24,320 He didn't overhaul the roster like this, but he did a roster overhaul and filled in a lot 100 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,760 of the gaps with transfers. 101 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:31,080 And so when he went to Colorado, he did a full roster overhaul. 102 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,680 He saw the advantage he had in facilities. 103 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,280 He saw the upgrade he had in financial ability. 104 00:06:38,280 --> 00:06:43,840 He saw the upgrade in the fact that it's a little easier to convince, you know, an FBS 105 00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:46,920 transfer to the FBS. 106 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,200 And of course he took his dogs from Jackson State. 107 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,000 Travis Hunter, my guy, we're going to speak about him a little later. 108 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,000 What a player. 109 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,080 He took his son, of course, Shadua Sanders, Shiloh Sanders, Dewayne Washington. 110 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,000 It was all the guys that made a lot of plays. 111 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:05,440 He's mostly got a lot of plays for Colorado tonight for Deon's kids at J State. 112 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,760 And he said it was an amazing experience. 113 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,480 But we're back to what I'm saying. 114 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:15,360 I was talking to a fellow coach of mine and he was saying, man, coach, the excitement 115 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,680 around this game, the Fox Sports app had a countdown to kickoff. 116 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:23,920 I was telling him, I'm like, I was born and raised an LSU fan. 117 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:28,240 Anybody that knows me knows I was born and raised an LSU fan. 118 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,360 I got my master's degree from LSU. 119 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,000 Ultimately, I'm a tiger for life. 120 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:35,000 And I just a fan. 121 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,880 I'm an alumni. 122 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:45,120 And I was way more excited to see Deon's first game, Coach Primes first game in Colorado 123 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,600 than I am for tomorrow night's contest with LSU in Florida State. 124 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:53,520 I mean, way more like, and then I'm watching the battle of the Carolinas now and they're 125 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:59,240 showing LSU for say 630 or 730 East and 630 Central Sunday ABC. 126 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:06,440 I was way more excited for the Colorado game. 127 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:16,200 I mean, just excitement level through the roof for the Colorado game. 128 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:17,200 I'm watching it. 129 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:22,040 We're, you know, we're doing different stuff and I'm watching the Colorado game. 130 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,840 I'm driving, we're taking care of our laundry stuff. 131 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,400 I'm watching the Colorado game. 132 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,240 I'm at the laundry facility taking care of our jerseys and stuff. 133 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,960 I'm watching the Colorado game. 134 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,480 Like I ended up at a baby shower. 135 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,520 I'm a complete total person though. 136 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,520 And I finished watching the Colorado game. 137 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:45,040 That is the level of excitement that Deon has not only for him, for himself, but for 138 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:51,920 his kids, his, I had a brain cramp, his school, you know, and he's just absolutely, he's 139 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,560 just ridiculous. 140 00:08:53,560 --> 00:08:59,320 The level of hype he has around Colorado. 141 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:11,480 Colorado was a one win team last year and they got destroyed by TCU. 142 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,680 TCU had a slow first half. 143 00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:17,280 TCU ultimately ran away with the game. 144 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,920 Colorado was 20 and a half point underdogs. 145 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:23,400 It was an absolute, it was a game. 146 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,400 They had no business winning. 147 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:30,200 And I mean, I'm just going to read what I posted on Facebook. 148 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:36,840 Behind 38 completions and 510 yards school record and four touchdowns from QB Shadua 149 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:37,840 Sanders. 150 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,720 Four receivers went over a hundred yards. 151 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,760 Dylan that was the runner back had four touchdowns. 152 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:49,360 Travis Hunter was on the field for 110, you know, 110, I think two different numbers, 153 00:09:49,360 --> 00:10:03,640 but we went from 110 to 129 snaps tonight at both cornerback and a wide receiver. 154 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,240 And then they had a huge fourth down stop on defense to win the game. 155 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:13,560 Deon prime time Sanders wins his first game in Colorado upsetting TCU 45 42 in Texas. 156 00:10:13,560 --> 00:10:16,240 Absolutely insane game. 157 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:23,360 Shadua Sanders is an NFL quarterback and many people, I'm glad for him personally. 158 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:30,160 He was able to make this move because many people were going to discredit him as an NFL 159 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:31,160 quarterback. 160 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:38,840 Due to the fact that he came from J state and then it was always kind of always a knock 161 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:39,840 on him. 162 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,320 Well, the FCS quarterbacks really haven't been doing very well. 163 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,760 If he plays against bigger opponents, he's going to struggle. 164 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:50,660 He struggled so much that in his first game, he broke the school record for passing yards 165 00:10:50,660 --> 00:10:53,400 with 510. 166 00:10:53,400 --> 00:11:00,040 Last year, Colorado had two games where they had a player go over a hundred yards receiving 167 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:04,840 Shadua in that offense put up four receivers with a hundred yards receiving in the same 168 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:05,840 game. 169 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,640 Dylan Edwards is a running back. 170 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:13,720 He came from J state as well, absolutely elite speed. 171 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,600 He scored four touchdowns. 172 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,880 I'm looking at the bottom of the screen now in the battle of the Carolinas. 173 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:26,960 Turned over roster with 86 new players, 69 of them are on scholarship. 174 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:31,400 The one defensive starter, he kept pick six. 175 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:32,880 I mean, he got not a pick. 176 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,280 He caught a pick in the end zone to stop a touchdown. 177 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,000 If he misses the pick, that's a, that's a post route touchdown. 178 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:48,160 And you know, it's just absolutely a great, great moment for Colorado. 179 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,520 Great moment for Deion Sanders. 180 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:55,560 So many things are interesting in the situation. 181 00:11:55,560 --> 00:12:01,800 You have Deion said, of course, coach prime coming up in the FCBS, he brings in his Louie 182 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,280 as he says it. 183 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,360 Travis Hunter is a legitimate Heisman candidate. 184 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:13,200 We have not seen a receiver or a corner be a legitimate Heisman candidate in a very long 185 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,200 time. 186 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,560 He has a legitimate shot to win the Heisman. 187 00:12:16,560 --> 00:12:22,760 He played it like a hundred and ten, 110 snaps tonight at corner receiver. 188 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,920 He had 111 yards receiving eight or nine catches. 189 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,320 He scored, I believe as a receiver, he caught an interception. 190 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:38,040 Like what he's daring to do is something that he didn't even do at J state, which is pull 191 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,200 double duty. 192 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:44,560 So what it reminds me of is that when Derek Stingley was coming out of Dunham high school 193 00:12:44,560 --> 00:12:47,280 in the batteries area, he was going to LSU. 194 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,800 He wanted to pull double duty. 195 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:55,960 But that Oteron said he promises that he's only going to play corner when he gets here 196 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:56,960 originally. 197 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,960 Now he ends up being the best corner in the country and never played receiver. 198 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:09,640 But Travis Hunter has a case legitimately to be the best corner in the country and he's 199 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,840 an absolute man and receiver. 200 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:18,040 He's people forget because he ends up going to that's wild. 201 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:24,400 Colorado ended their 27 game road losing streak to a top 20 team in this game. 202 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:29,280 But people forget that when Travis Hunter was coming out, he's the highest rated recruit 203 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:30,800 ever. 204 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:36,360 If you divide him between cornerback and receiver, he's a top five corner. 205 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:43,760 He's a top five receiver ever coming out of high school and he's the same person. 206 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,560 And so he's just a ridiculous talent. 207 00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:50,640 Like I said, the amount of minutes, I mean, he was willing to put a lot of snaps, he was 208 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:51,640 willing to play. 209 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,760 But ended after the game and say he's not tidy, we should go back out there. 210 00:13:54,760 --> 00:14:02,760 I mean, absolutely, absolutely tremendous moment in college football. 211 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,480 And now they get to go into a game, they get to host their first game. 212 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,600 I'm sure the crowd is going to be absolutely raucous. 213 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:15,200 They get to host their first game against Matt Ruhl in Nebraska, who struggled in their 214 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:20,960 opener, probably still should have won the game, but ultimately didn't. 215 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,760 So Matt Ruhl lost his opener and now he gets to run into the buzz side known as Carolina, 216 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,640 known as Colorado, I'm sorry. 217 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,440 So that'll be very interesting there. 218 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,760 Georgia, let the touch slope in this game. 219 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,360 I didn't really see anything. 220 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,760 It's so hard to get a read on the top schools because they're playing fairly cupcake schedules 221 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,640 early unless they're already in conference play. 222 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,840 You know, most of the top schools, I should say most of them. 223 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,000 Now again, you got South Carolina, you got North Carolina. 224 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,480 You have you LSU in Florida State. 225 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,360 You have your Colorado TCUs, even though TCU probably booked the game as a pretty easy 226 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,640 game, but they at least agreed to go home and home. 227 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,880 And so, you know, it's hard to get a read on that. 228 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:07,600 But Georgia just didn't look like they're using with Georgia, which new officer coordinator, 229 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:14,600 new quarterback, the last of that depth is the last of that monster recruiting the, who 230 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,400 we've seen with the Philadelphia Eagles drafting all the defenses. 231 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,400 They're pretty much running out. 232 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,800 Now it's newer players on the field. 233 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:31,360 And so that is definitely something that that is definitely something that we are observing 234 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:37,440 that I've observed with Georgia is the fact that they just look a little slow right now. 235 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,200 I'm sure they're going to get that fixed. 236 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,040 Florida looks bad. 237 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,520 There's no other way I can describe it. 238 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:45,520 Florida looks awful. 239 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,280 At one point they had a penalty against Utah who didn't have Kamarizing their starting 240 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:50,280 quarterback in their legend. 241 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:56,960 They had a penalty against Utah with two players weighing the same number, which gave Utah 242 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,440 a first down, which then led to a Utah touchdown. 243 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,040 So they just look unorganized. 244 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:04,040 They just look bad. 245 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:08,840 I mean, nothing about it stood out to me. 246 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,960 With the way Florida played, definitely not going to be a team that's going to make a 247 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:12,960 lot of noise this year. 248 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,880 And there's people saying if they go 75 it's a victory. 249 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:20,680 If they go 66 it's a victory. 250 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,320 And Matt Ruhl has a $30 million buyout after the season. 251 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,960 So he's not going, not Matt Ruhl, Billy Napier has a $30 million buyout after the season. 252 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:28,960 So he's not going anywhere. 253 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:29,960 More than likely. 254 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,720 If they do it next season, it's $24 million. 255 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,600 Maybe they cobble that together. 256 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:43,280 But I mean, absolutely insane how poor Florida looked. 257 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:49,080 But cobbling $30 million together is not that difficult with some of these boosters. 258 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:55,520 Because remember Deion Sanders signed a $26 million contract with Colorado with the AD 259 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,360 saying, Rick George, we don't have the money for you yet. 260 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,360 Private donations, $28 million. 261 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,240 And then he sold pretty much all the season tickets. 262 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,240 So he sold all the season tickets. 263 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:09,200 He had to sell extra season tickets. 264 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,160 And so private donations to get a coach out is one thing. 265 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:20,800 I just don't know how the school would look accepting that sort of cash to just fire off 266 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:21,800 football cups. 267 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:27,720 So maybe, Billy Napier survives another couple of years purely because of the buyout so large. 268 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,680 But yeah, Florida team looked rough. 269 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,400 And then USC looks explosive. 270 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:36,920 USC looks incredibly explosive. 271 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,120 They've got Tyron everywhere. 272 00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:42,080 Kayla Williams looks like he's running away and hide the number one pick and the best 273 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,600 quarterback in the draft. 274 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,120 They've got weapons everywhere, young and old. 275 00:17:47,120 --> 00:17:48,400 They've got transfers in. 276 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:57,880 I mean, it's just an absolutely great environment that USC is in right now. 277 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,480 They've got confidence. 278 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,640 They're looking to put their imprint on everybody in every game they play. 279 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,880 And they're looking to make a show and make a name for themselves. 280 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:11,480 And so very excited to continue to watch USC's offensive development as I think they put 281 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:16,760 up 60 balls in their week zero game and their week one game. 282 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:22,680 But up next, I am going to shift into the NFL and talk about what's going down with 283 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:27,680 the Shield. 284 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:54,440 Welcome 285 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,560 in to the show. 286 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,840 And now we're going to talk about the Shield. 287 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:03,300 The NFL is back. 288 00:19:03,300 --> 00:19:07,040 It opens up with Lions at Chiefs for Banner night. 289 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:13,360 Basically, Lions at Chiefs excuse me, Banner night with the Chiefs hosting the Arrowhead 290 00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:15,780 Stadium. 291 00:19:15,780 --> 00:19:16,780 Welcome back NFL. 292 00:19:16,780 --> 00:19:17,920 We've missed you. 293 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,360 The preseason just doesn't do it. 294 00:19:19,360 --> 00:19:21,160 Yeah, we got to see an Arrowhead in a gesture. 295 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:22,160 It's a beautiful pass. 296 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,160 Sure. 297 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:28,880 We got to see the Chiefs start some people. 298 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,240 Sure. 299 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:38,440 We got to see some starters play. 300 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:39,440 Sure. 301 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:48,560 But it's not the same as when the game matters because in the end, in the end, it's not football. 302 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:53,640 I guess football, but it's not football if that makes sense. 303 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,560 Defenses are super vanilla. 304 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,680 They're running too high shells all night. 305 00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,800 Nothing cheap, nothing deep. 306 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,480 It's kind of boring. 307 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,760 If you're a real football fan like myself, it gets kind of boring. 308 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:10,200 I don't want to just see basic defenses and then offense is having a field day with them 309 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,800 because there's literally no pressure. 310 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:17,200 And you're watching the seventh string receiver tricking yourself into thinking he's going 311 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,520 to be a superstar. 312 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,240 That's literally the benefit of the preseason. 313 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,880 You're tricking yourself into thinking this seventh string receiver is going to be a dynamite. 314 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:25,880 He's not going to be a dynamite. 315 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,880 We all know it. 316 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,240 But that's kind of the benefit of the preseason, right? 317 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:37,920 And so now that we're coming out of the preseason, like I said, Lions and Chiefs is the first 318 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,480 real game of the season. 319 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,440 You just can't beat that. 320 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:48,200 You got Jared Goff and the Lions who have a lot of expectations all of a sudden. 321 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,880 They sold out their season tickets for the first time in the Ford Field era. 322 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:56,680 So they have a lot of expectations, a lot of people wanting them to be successful. 323 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:01,400 A lot of people in Detroit hoping their success can kind of stir something up in the city, 324 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,560 which is a pressure that most people don't get. 325 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,400 You know, like Detroit's a literal dying city. 326 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:13,640 People talk about it like there's parts of Detroit that's like a ghost town. 327 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:14,640 There's no people. 328 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,600 There's no active businesses. 329 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,800 There's no cars moving like it's a literal ghost town. 330 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,000 There's just nothing there. 331 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,160 It's just empty blocks of space. 332 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:31,360 I say where there is nothing happening, there's no movement, there's no vitalization. 333 00:21:31,360 --> 00:21:36,680 It looks like somebody stopped improving it in 1990 and just left it there to rot. 334 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:43,160 And so having a great Lions team, who knows that that could be business wise. 335 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,600 Maybe those blocks can revitalize. 336 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,000 Maybe the city kind of stands on itself, puts some pride up and figures it out. 337 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,320 Who knows? 338 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,360 But the Lions sold out the season tickets for the first time in the Ford Field era. 339 00:21:53,360 --> 00:21:55,680 They have expectations for the first time in my life. 340 00:21:55,680 --> 00:22:01,640 I don't recall the Detroit Lions having expectations since Prime Calvin Johnson and Prime Matt 341 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:02,640 Stafford. 342 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,560 That time when Matt Stafford was throwing for 5,000 yards, like maybe that time period. 343 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,680 But even then people say there's the Lions, they don't have a defense. 344 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:11,680 They have a defense. 345 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,280 They have a head coach they believe in. 346 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,880 They've got a quarterback they like. 347 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,640 They've got weaponry. 348 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,840 This is again, they have expectations. 349 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:26,000 And now for the first time in 25 years the Packers don't have a Hall of Fame quarterback. 350 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,960 The Bears aren't put together yet. 351 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,320 Who else in the north? 352 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:32,320 The Vikings are good. 353 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,360 The Vikings are a good football team, but people have their thing about Kurt Cousins. 354 00:22:35,360 --> 00:22:39,160 I personally think Kurt Cousins is the top 10 quarterback in the league. 355 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,400 But people have their gripes with Kurt Cousins. 356 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,400 So the Lions fans are looking at, we can win this division. 357 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:46,960 You know, we can make the playoffs. 358 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,920 We can host the playoffs game. 359 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,280 We can maybe make a little baby and run in the playoffs. 360 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,840 So that's going on in Detroit. 361 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,040 Like I said, the Kansas City is Kansas City. 362 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,720 They just figure it out every time. 363 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,760 But like I said, football is basically back. 364 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,120 So as you guys know, I pick every game in the regular season. 365 00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:08,560 I picked that a few weeks back. 366 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:12,480 I feel confident in my picks, so I'm not going to change anything. 367 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:16,720 But I will do a fresh list of awards. 368 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:21,520 So MVP, I believe is going to go to Joe Burrow of the Cincinnati Bengals quarterback. 369 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,000 I think he's due for one. 370 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,280 And then I struggle between him and Josh Allen. 371 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,080 But I think Burrow is due for one. 372 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:29,440 They're going to have a big year this year. 373 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,600 They're going to win 12-13 games. 374 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,680 And then he's going to, I mean, they're going to win 11-12 games. 375 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:37,680 And then he's going to be the MVP. 376 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:38,680 I just think it's time. 377 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:39,680 I think he's due. 378 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:45,640 And oddly, they don't have his contract done, which feels odd. 379 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:52,240 I mean, the opening talk about it's going to get done. 380 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:57,280 But this is weird, the fact that the Bengals don't have his contract put together yet. 381 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,880 Now we have learned from Jermarcus Russell that teams will tell you don't sign a contract 382 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:02,880 due to escrow. 383 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,240 Like we physically don't have the money to put in the escrow account. 384 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,160 And if that's the case, that's a different story. 385 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,040 I mean, obviously they can't come out and say that because the NFL put an investigation 386 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:21,200 onto why an owner in the NFL doesn't have $200 million cash, which is wild to even say. 387 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,880 But why an owner doesn't have $200 million cash. 388 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:28,200 But I mean, Joe Burrow did say he wanted to get his money, get his value, and basically 389 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:33,400 try to leave some pie for other people. 390 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:37,160 Try and do their best to keep all three of his receivers. 391 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:42,760 You know, he's trying to have the opportunity to keep some of his key players because he's 392 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:50,360 gotten used to having Chase Higgins and the other one, Boyd, I think is another name. 393 00:24:50,360 --> 00:24:52,120 He's used to having those guys around. 394 00:24:52,120 --> 00:24:55,560 And so losing those guys, he knows could be an issue. 395 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:59,360 And so maybe that could be an issue that they're trying to structure right, whether the Cincinnati 396 00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:07,240 serving still have flexibility and they can keep as many of their weapons as possible. 397 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,240 So that could be the issue. 398 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:14,000 It's just weird that they don't have a contract for my MVP this season. 399 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,920 Officer Player of the Year, Tyreek Hill, I received Miami Dolphins. 400 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,840 This one's pretty contingent on two. 401 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,240 If two was healthy, I believe Tyreek Hill may break the 2,000 yard mark. 402 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:31,160 If he breaks 2,000 yards receiving, and the Dolphins are a 10, 11, 12 win team, it's going 403 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:36,040 to be hard for him to resist giving him the Officer Player of the Year. 404 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:40,200 I think defensive player of the year is going to be Miles Garrett. 405 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:45,720 I just think that it's weird that he's one of those guys that doesn't have a DPOI. 406 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:50,800 It's kind of like you look up and be like, man, this guy doesn't have this award. 407 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,360 LeBron doesn't have a different spirit than your basketball. 408 00:25:53,360 --> 00:25:57,000 It's just odd for how great of a defender he was for so long. 409 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:03,360 It's just odd that Miles Garrett, he's an dominant defensive player of the year candidate 410 00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:08,520 every single year, but I think he gets one this year. 411 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,280 Officer Rookie of the Year, I'm going to go with Houston Texans quarterback, CJ Stroud. 412 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,800 He's my favorite quarterback in the draft. 413 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,280 He's the guy that I root for heavily in the draft. 414 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:20,480 I'm going to cheer him on every step of his way in his NFL journey. 415 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:27,960 But CJ Stroud, I think is going to be the offensive rookie of the year. 416 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,000 The defense rookie of the year could be biased, could be just fanfare. 417 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,000 I don't know. 418 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,000 I don't care. 419 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,680 It's Christian Gonzalez, cornerback of the New England Patriots. 420 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:43,240 I just think he's a really tall, physical corner, has the top 10 raw athletic score 421 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,360 in NFL combat history. 422 00:26:45,360 --> 00:26:49,600 Ains going through situations where he's learning defenses and defensive back play from Bill 423 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,440 Belichick, who there's literally nobody else probably better to learn it from than Bill 424 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:54,440 Belichick. 425 00:26:54,440 --> 00:27:01,640 And so I just think he's going to end up being a defensive rookie of the year. 426 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,560 So there's been a little situations going on in the NFL. 427 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,360 We're going to touch on some of the big ones here quickly. 428 00:27:06,360 --> 00:27:12,120 So for number one, the Buffalo Bills are dealing with a lot of drama right now. 429 00:27:12,120 --> 00:27:16,400 There's that weird Stefan Diggs, Josh Allen relationship thing that they're all trying 430 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:17,400 to tell us is fine. 431 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:22,600 But we have eyes so we can tell that it's not fine. 432 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:27,520 There's all kinds of vibes and bad vibes and good vibes and sideways vibes and a little 433 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:34,800 bit over there vibes and it's just all kinds of stuff happening with the Buffalo Bills. 434 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,080 No idea when they get Vaughn Miller back. 435 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,520 I don't think their championship window is closed. 436 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,400 It's been a popular question the past couple of days. 437 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,160 Are the Bills' championship window closed? 438 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:46,160 I don't think it's closed. 439 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:50,840 I don't think it's closed because you have a good coach who's kind of, he's not entrenched 440 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,720 but he's getting very close to entrenched. 441 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:59,320 And then you have a good coaching staff. 442 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,840 And so you kind of, you need to get an entrenched quarterback. 443 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:03,840 I don't know. 444 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:08,920 It's nowhere near time to hit the panic button yet if you're a Buffalo. 445 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:14,160 However you have to get that stuff taken care of before it festers and infects the rest 446 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,160 of the team. 447 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:21,120 The Cleveland Browns are going into year two of the Deshaun Watson experiment. 448 00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:23,800 Although really and truly it's year one. 449 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:30,680 Year two, okay it was year one in the sense of literally Deshaun Watson got there year 450 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,040 one and so this is year two because it's his second year. 451 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:35,960 But to me that was year one. 452 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,760 Kind of like how I treat Trevor Lawrence's rookie years. 453 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,240 It just didn't exist because it was under Irvin Meyer. 454 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:50,800 I'm kind of going to treat Deshaun Watson this year one or his redshirt year as a year 455 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:55,880 where you knew that nothing would come of it because he was going to be suspended for 456 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:56,880 those games. 457 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,880 So you kind of anticipated that nothing would come out of it. 458 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:04,200 However now he's clear. 459 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,280 Before my home I would have said he was the most talented player I've ever seen in the 460 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,280 whole quarterback position in terms of the ability to run and the ability to be an elite 461 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:12,560 pocket passer. 462 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,800 Most people if you're an elite pocket passer you can run but you just don't want to. 463 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:21,680 And if you're an elite athlete in the quarterback position you can throw but it's not what you're 464 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,480 calling an elite pocket passer. 465 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:28,040 He was a kid that could do both and took full advantage of that ability. 466 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,960 So kudos to Deshaun Watson. 467 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:34,120 Like I said now we have to figure out what they're going to do this year. 468 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,880 I think they're going to be a very solid team and having that full off season is really 469 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,680 going to get Watson in tune with the receivers. 470 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,880 They're going to get Watson in tune with the head coach. 471 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,200 And certain stuff is being called. 472 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,440 Are we anticipating this, that, or the third. 473 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:52,880 So it's going to be incredibly helpful to Deshaun Watson this year. 474 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:58,200 I believe he'll be a big help to the Browns and he'll continue to collect checks from 475 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:04,480 the Browns that no one else is going to write. 476 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,960 Alright and then of course there's everyone's favorite team. 477 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:09,320 The Jets. 478 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:10,320 J-E-T-S. 479 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:11,320 Jets, Jets, Jets. 480 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:12,600 They've been on hard knocks. 481 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,000 I haven't watched one second of it. 482 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,000 I heard it's boring. 483 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,520 But they've been on hard knocks. 484 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:23,040 People are falling in love with some of their players. 485 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,600 But they've put a lot of expectation on themselves. 486 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:31,640 And if you think about commonly phrased phrases like don't put any pressure on me more than 487 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:32,640 I can handle. 488 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:37,240 Like in North Carolina, I'm sorry. 489 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:45,280 The Jets have put a lot of pressure on themselves to win this year. 490 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,640 And I just won some games, won a shoot ball. 491 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:52,680 Anything shorter than an A.S. Championship game would look like an abject failure by 492 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,920 pretty much anyone who connects to the program which makes life difficult. 493 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:01,320 Because if you set a level of expectations that the team can't reach it could be the 494 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:06,400 most successful year you've had in the program or in the franchise in 20-25 years. 495 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:10,800 But because you promised them this and didn't deliver it they're disappointed. 496 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:11,800 And so yeah. 497 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:15,120 So Travis Hunter played 129 snaps. 498 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:16,120 Sheesh. 499 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:21,440 But you know just you have your best season in the quarter century as a franchise and 500 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:29,520 the fans are disappointed because you promised them it's a onesie. 501 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:34,560 The Jets have invited scrutiny at a level I've never seen a team openly invite scrutiny 502 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:35,560 this early. 503 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:40,000 Like if a team gets scrutinized they may say okay well we hear it, we understand it, we're 504 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,360 just going to keep moving. 505 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:50,160 They have been openly and I don't mean openly inviting pressure. 506 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:56,360 It's just it's the land of the expensive misfit toys at this point. 507 00:31:56,360 --> 00:32:01,560 And so I still think they're going to finish last in the division unless Tewin gets hurt 508 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:02,560 and they'll be second to last. 509 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:11,360 But I don't think they're going to get within a couple of games of the Bills and the Patriots. 510 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:15,840 So that is definitely something to look forward to as the Jets trying to figure this thing 511 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:16,840 out. 512 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:45,960 But up next we're going to shift to FIBA and Taiwan's going down with Tewin USA. 513 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:53,560 Welcome back into the show and now we're going to jump into FIBA World Cup. 514 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,680 Just a quick discussion of what's going on there. 515 00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:00,800 The Americans are still undefeated. 516 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:04,080 Of course I expect the Americans to win this tournament. 517 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,440 It's kind of one of those US versus the world things. 518 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:12,320 And people talk about oh the Europeans are catching up, the foreigners are catching up. 519 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,240 You know if you look at the NBA the top three or four players are foreign. 520 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,280 It's NBA, it's Yoke, it's just Luka. 521 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,920 I think LeBron, Steph, KD answer for the American side. 522 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:27,640 But then if you go further down the list it's a lot of foreign players in there as well. 523 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:33,000 But when you divide all the countries out and it's the US versus the rest of the countries 524 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,680 the US dominates. 525 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:37,680 Almost religiously. 526 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,440 And the funny part about the World Cup is this is even our 18th. 527 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,680 Anthony Davis may end up on the Olympic team. 528 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:48,400 Anthony Edwards may end up on the Olympic team next year. 529 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,000 He may end up on the Olympic team next year. 530 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,120 So he's a guy. 531 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,640 Brandon England is struggling in international play. 532 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,760 I think it's just the style of play that they have him doing. 533 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,040 Austin Reeves is not an Olympian. 534 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,040 Tyrese Halliburton could be an Olympian. 535 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:07,040 Especially because the American guards are getting kind of older. 536 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:08,040 Steph it's Dane. 537 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:09,040 I don't know how many. 538 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:10,720 I don't know if they're going to win the Olympics. 539 00:34:10,720 --> 00:34:11,720 Clay I don't know anymore. 540 00:34:11,720 --> 00:34:15,720 I don't think they're going to win more Olympics or not. 541 00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:18,680 But you know this is our B team. 542 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:23,280 Our World Championship team is always our second grade guys. 543 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:24,280 With second grade guys in America. 544 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:25,280 Still all-stars. 545 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:26,280 Still all NBA guys. 546 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:29,000 Just not our top players. 547 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,000 Most of the time. 548 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,680 Now like Josh Hart is not an Olympian. 549 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,880 You know Jaylen Brunson is not an Olympian. 550 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,480 Jaren Jackson Jr. could be an Olympian. 551 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:41,400 So you know there's some guys who can make up both teams. 552 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,440 I can't remember. 553 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:51,000 You know 2006 after the LeBron's era a lot of the Olympic teams went to the World Championships. 554 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,420 And then that World Championship team ended up in the Olympic team whenever they redid 555 00:34:55,420 --> 00:34:58,360 it for the Redin team in 08. 556 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:03,400 And so a lot of that World Championship team in 06 ended up being on the 08 Olympic team 557 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:04,400 as well. 558 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,320 Much closer to their prime on the Broadway Bosham crew. 559 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:11,440 Much closer to their prime than they were in 2006. 560 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,000 But anyway so the feedback competition has been very interesting. 561 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,040 Anthony Edwards has shown that he's probably the best player on the team. 562 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,040 I know a lot of Pelicans fans are trying to say he's Brandon Ingram. 563 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,640 But he's struggling against international style of play. 564 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,320 He's struggling in his role. 565 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,440 The one game where he was able to really have the ball with that second unit. 566 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,840 He had his best game 15 minutes 7.5 assists. 567 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:36,560 He felt a lot more comfortable just opposed to him being basically a spot up shooter for 568 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,560 the starting lineup. 569 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:39,880 And it's just bothering him. 570 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:44,840 Especially with the ball he's not used to having. 571 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:48,760 You know you see American free throw changes way down from where they are in the NBA. 572 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,800 And that's because the ball is a little different. 573 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,520 You can dunk it just as well. 574 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,880 Pretty much shooting a three you can adjust. 575 00:35:54,880 --> 00:36:00,200 But your free throw is such a I do it every time kind of thing. 576 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:06,640 You can't really affect your routine that much in order to take something off the ball 577 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,800 in order for it to roll into the rim. 578 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:13,200 So it's very interesting what's going on with the Americas there. 579 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,000 We used to have to adjust to a lot of feeble play. 580 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:17,960 It used to be way more physical. 581 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,200 They're doing moves they're doing in America. 582 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:21,840 The lane was funky. 583 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,160 You could slap the ball off the rim. 584 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,840 And the ball was different. 585 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:31,680 Now it's down to at least the ball is different. 586 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,400 They're a little less physical because more of them are playing American style basketball. 587 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,520 But let's say they're more physical. 588 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,240 And on top of that we've seen all their moves. 589 00:36:39,240 --> 00:36:42,080 And we're doing moves they've never seen before. 590 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,920 Because the world's gotten smaller thanks to technology and a lot of international players 591 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:45,920 coming over. 592 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:52,160 The Euro step was like unheard of 20 years ago. 593 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,840 And then the model you know we were doing with the people on the feeble side. 594 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,360 And it kind of made its way over to the NBA. 595 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:04,960 And now the Euro step is one of the most popular moves besides the basic crossover in basketball. 596 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:09,760 Because every little kid comes up to adults and Euro steps around them. 597 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,720 And so it's just an absolute spectacular movement. 598 00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:18,760 The USA no longer has to adjust so much because feeble has to contort a lot of their rules 599 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,960 and regulations to fit the American game. 600 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:26,320 For instance the lane is the standard lane you see now instead of the big trapezoid. 601 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:32,440 I still want the NBA to adopt the Golden E rule of feeble. 602 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,200 Where you want to test the rim. 603 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,440 It's fair game for everybody. 604 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,320 The American and the NBA did adopt the intentional foul rule. 605 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,480 Which I think was a great addition to the rule book. 606 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,040 Trying to get more fast break opportunities. 607 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,160 More of those high light real plays. 608 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:52,480 And plus if you take a foul on the backcourt to intentionally foul. 609 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,840 To me that's showcasing you can't or won't play defense. 610 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,400 In which case it shouldn't bail you off a bad defense. 611 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:04,240 So I am pretty excited with the fact that that's in the rule book. 612 00:38:04,240 --> 00:38:05,240 But the USA has looked great. 613 00:38:05,240 --> 00:38:07,960 Like I say Anthony Edwards has looked spectacular. 614 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:11,840 Paolo Banquero is really putting on a show here. 615 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:18,080 Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Halliburton and Austin Reeves are doing really really well. 616 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:25,440 Jaren Jackson Jr. is doing better than his stats would suggest. 617 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,600 He I think he's being robbed of a couple of blocks. 618 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,840 And a couple of ultra shots he just didn't get credit for. 619 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,360 So I think he's actually playing better than his stats would suggest. 620 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,680 But he's playing really really well also. 621 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,440 And so keep it up team USA. 622 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:40,840 Rooting for you on that side. 623 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:46,240 And we are hoping that they get their gold medal undefeated. 624 00:38:46,240 --> 00:38:48,880 I believe they are going to win their gold medal either way. 625 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:53,760 But let's hope they get their gold medal undefeated. 626 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:58,400 Now we are going to jump into Jax. 627 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:18,080 Jax's hot take is going to be on college football. 628 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:35,800 Welcome back into the show. 629 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,800 And now we are going to discuss Jax's hot take. 630 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,640 Which is going to be my Heisman winner. 631 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,520 I believe it will be Jaden Daniels of LSU. 632 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:50,160 The returning quarterback is entering his last year at LSU. 633 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:56,960 After transferring in from Arizona State that cesspool that mess that disaster program Hermann 634 00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:57,960 was running. 635 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:04,600 And I think that Jaden Daniels is going to lead the LSU Tigers to an 11 win season. 636 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,000 If he can execute that the way I think he will. 637 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,480 Then he will win the Heisman Trophy. 638 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:14,080 Now of course, of course a lot of people right now are on the Shadoor Sanders train. 639 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:17,600 Rightfully so 510 yards and 4 touchdowns. 640 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:22,840 It's hard to ignore. 641 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,520 Travis Hunter played 129 snaps in a college football game. 642 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,000 Had over 100 yards receiving. 643 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,880 Two pass breakups and one interception. 644 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,640 It's kind of hard to ignore that. 645 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,520 Kayla Williams is absolutely rolling right now at USC. 646 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:37,520 It's hard to ignore that. 647 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:38,520 J.J. 648 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,240 McCarthy had a great opening game with Keith Carolina. 649 00:40:40,240 --> 00:40:42,640 It's hard to ignore that. 650 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,400 But at the same time I just think J.J. 651 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:45,880 Daniels has a few things working for him. 652 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:46,880 One he has momentum. 653 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,600 People are excited to see the LSU Tigers play. 654 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,000 Starting like I said tomorrow night against Florida State. 655 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,000 He has kind of the storyline. 656 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:01,760 Transferring in last year in very Joe Burrowsque. 657 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:05,200 People forget that was Joe Burrows second year at LSU United's first. 658 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:11,800 He transferred in kind of had a rough-ish first year and then exploded in 2019. 659 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:12,800 J.J. 660 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:13,800 Daniels is kind of feeling the same thing. 661 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:19,760 Solid first year looking to explode in year two. 662 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,240 He's got the dual threat ability. 663 00:41:21,240 --> 00:41:24,920 Shadou San is going to have all his yards in the air. 664 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,080 Every single one of them is going to be in the air pretty much. 665 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,640 Kayla Williams is going to be in the air as well. 666 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:30,640 J.J. 667 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:31,640 Daniels is going to be those total yard guys. 668 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,640 He may go 300, 150 one game. 669 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:38,240 300, 125, 475 in terms of 400 passing out of 75 rushing. 670 00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:44,920 He's going to have the advantage of being able to be a dual threat throwing and running 671 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:45,920 the ball. 672 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,520 So my hot take is that J.J. 673 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:55,000 Daniels of LSU will become the third LSU Heisman winner behind Billy Cannon and Joe Burrow. 674 00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:02,640 He brings one home to Baton Rouge along with an 11 win season. 675 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:07,080 A hell of a bowl game if not a playoff appearance. 676 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:11,000 That is all I have for today's shorter show. 677 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:15,520 Especially considering that I hadn't talked to you guys in a while. 678 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,880 Looking to do a midweek show potentially somewhere around Thursday. 679 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:23,000 It may even come in even earlier. 680 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,000 But you guys enjoy your Labor Day weekend. 681 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,200 We're getting back into the swing of things. 682 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:28,200 The NFL is back. 683 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,120 So we're going to get back into the swing of things every single week. 684 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:36,200 You can expect to hear my voice from here through the end of the year. 685 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:40,120 And of course, Justin Time Sports will be on and popping as always on my social media 686 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,160 making sure you guys are as formed as quickly as possible. 687 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:45,640 That is all I have for today. 688 00:42:45,640 --> 00:43:12,440 This is your host Justin Jackson signing out and enjoy your Labor Day weekend.
