fall Camp is over things are getting real man my game week this week man and the more I'm telling you just the closer we get man the more hype I get for this team man like I I don't even know if I was this hype last year when I thought that video that they dropped though that that had me in tears in a sense because I'm just got me so hyped just curious are we expecting like two to three episodes because the season obviously is coming up right so like or is this something that's going to go into the season is that your exp I guess what you I don't know not to go off our topics but it's kind of something I mean we brought it up so no I don't know if it's going to be like a hard nuts type of Deal or what but right I didn't think so yeah real real quick I'm just G to give a shout out to Gabe and uh his oneye anniversary being the Trojan blade so shout out he used to be G greens and now he's the Trojan blade I remember those days oh so Gabe said it's gonna be during the season okay okay that's pretty cool I like that you know what's also crazy we're we're coming up on a year of being uh thank you Ken the light TCH podcast that is true on the 24th will be our our one year y he said g greens is dead all right man so you guys probably noticed by now Ru is not not here yet he'll be here though you didn't hear his intro but he will be here soon soon enough you he's got daddy duties right now so that's funny he ain't got to take his jab but yeah man um trying to stall for RO but I think we should move on what you guys think yeah let's move on we already got the graphic at the bottom all right let's go so it's Miller time ladies and gentlemen yep it's Miller time as we were all rooting for Miller did come out victorious in uh the quarterback battle um no knock on Jaden at all you know appreciate Jaden too but um you know just just the whole story of Miller just you know growing up being a trosen his whole life you know and then finally getting the opportunity to to lead the tro this season it's just just amazing you know something that you don't see in college football anymore you know it's really a dream come true plus earned you know he earned every bit of so it's really awesome story man um we have all the faith in the world and Miller you know he's I mean like I said very cerebral kid um man I'm just really excited to see what he does out there on the field this season man yep like is i i rewatched a lot of or the Louisville game and he definitely had a little bit of a Swagger to himself in that game as he got more comfortable he just started feeling himself so I'm excited for it and I hope he carries on that Swagger uh because I I feel like you need to have some kind of swagger to play the quarterback position some times like yeah I like Sam darnold he was like humble and all that stuff but I think you need that kind of like confidence in a sense maybe not cocky but confidence find it somewhere yeah yeah I mean the the the story's great guys I mean um you just you just want him to succeed more now just because of like the the backstory and all that um but I mean he's really like saying all the right things in my opinion like you know they're kind of already like putting him into this group right with the the QBs and and all honest he still has to show it and prove it and that's what he's saying right and so I mean he's he's he literally gets it to from from all angles so um yeah just excited to uh root him on yeah like he's he's a different type of quarterback than we've had really in in in the past like I guess he's he's kind of more like on the Cody kler kind of uh kind of route or whatever he waited his time and uh he's going to take full advantage of it but Cody was how many years was a was Cody a starter maybe like two years three years I want say two years so it's it's definitely gonna be nice to see him like a true like Trojan fan from the very beginning getting his opportunity like he says that he had he's getting the opportunity now he needs to seiz the moment so oh there he is Mr Raul on time as usualy you guys you guys know my my reason no mess with yeah we're just mess with than so yeah guess it was a quarterback for three years was the quarterback for three years yeah um lucky CH was making a comparison to Miller moss and um Cody ker their story how they you know they earned they waited their turn and got start in row yeah they have a similar path yeah the fans were giving Blacky Chan a hard time because he he compared the situation of Max Brown and uh sanno right yeah black CH caught it a bit but I'm not saying that's what would happen but I I could see the similarities right I guess what you're trying to say that if uh like if Miller M has a an off day and then he puts in my Ava and may Ava might not give it back in a sense Spencer and Caleb right yeah and if you get if you get that moment you don't want to let it go so that's what Caleb did and that's what he even said he would do he said the moment I get my opportunity is I'm not letting it go so but uh what's his name uh like uh that's kind of what happened with Max like he kind of got it stolen from him but I don't think I don't think that will happen to Miller Moss I think I think he's gonna hold on to it he he knows how important this is and it's really important for him so and he he's gonna seize it so yeah I mean you kind of said it Miller Moss was waiting for his chance he's not giving it back you've been waiting all his life basically for this moment I feel like he's just too smart not to succeed yeah you know so especially you know right now he's pretty much a professional he's already graduated yeah you so he doesn't have too much other stuff to worry about other than you know being the best Char being best charging quarterback he could be so see this Ken guy here he gets it what's that this Ken guy right here he gets it he understands what I'm saying whoever that Ken guy is he's good by my books and say that now wait until he gets going just wait until I forget a name then he's gonna be back he's not cracking 40 jokes on he's good with you speaking of like CH you're not gonna find out until later just come on are you want is it sub is it sub five we sub we feeling good I'm hoping sub five you hope so you haven't cled yourself at all no I haven't all right okay I'm gonna surprise myself okay my legs are tired right now I I did leg day today so okay but bro you been stretching man well I started going to getting some massages I was like I gotta prepare for this 30 yard yeah I got I gotta start uh doing it like these pro athletes or these Collegiate pro athletes now with them getting paid you know get the massage get everything going hold on man so you getting those experience get the full experience so um you getting Us Des Watson massages man oh my god let's you sound like a pro athlete man so she trying to figure out you g get us in trouble I can't say anything I'm just just say it if he's getting those if he's getting those type of massages I don't think we want roll on volunteered that information I don't know I don't know I didn't say anything I just said I plead a fear that's it exactly and I don't know what's going yeah I don't know I don't know what Bon was thinking of man no Gabe that's not I just said I'm not gonna say [Laughter] [Music] anything just just plead the fifth that's all you got to do that's what I said he didn't say I the fifth I did say it oh did he rewind rewind rewind when you can I said I plead the fifth which I don't get pleading the fifth because that just sounds guilty not necessarily it just sounds guilty though no I don't sound guilty at all that hot where did this uh podcast turn to man I Blame You B Jones said let's bring it back 20 minutes ago you got still going on you Blacky chel talking about law stuff now all right Le let's head on a quick topic right uh real quick Pete Caroll is back kinda yeah kinda hey I'll take it so let me ask you guys man what are you guys hoping for with P returning to USC campus um obviously not as a coach as of right now but uh as a teacher I I need to I need to see one of those those episodes a Pete Carol given a motivational speech to them I need to see one of those episodes that the USC football team puts out there I need to see p Carol be putting out like some TED Talks some motivational speeches that gets them all hyped up I need to see that and I need to see him running the team out of the tennel that's what I would really love to see that would be ni that would be dope yeah that would be dope I mean I'll pop in real quick uh for me uh just um I mean anything anything you do if he could just go talk to a player um if he could somehow be involved in the recruiting uh he's a teacher now right uh so they have brought professors on our official visits could we somehow get around that you know what I'm saying where he is you know I wonder what he's talking about his his yeah whatever his uh profession is in terms of like the the genre but yeah um yeah if he could just be around that that's all I'm asking and it sounds like um him and Lincoln have talked you know good open line of communication so um it was interesting that uh he mentioned like an official role so I don't know like if he meant for football like if if Lincoln wants him on some type of stat like Mike Williams for example we'll see but him and Mike Williams being on their on the the football like the the day-to-day stuff like the recruiting would be great yeah he's a player development I believe or something like that or some somewhere in that something like that yeah uhu on that side yeah but see my question I I was a little nervous for a while because I heard there was rumors that uh that the uh that Washington was going to use him or something like that that they were going to try to take advantage of P Caroll and like using him for like uh talking to them or whatever which I mean I understand it he's been in Washington for a long time at Seattle but now he's back I wonder what he is teaching maybe Communications I know a lot of I know a lot of college players tend to be Communications Majors so hey that's that's one way to get around it because if they're bringing the the coach the teachers in uh to to talk to these guys that's pretty much all the time and you guys I don't know if you guys mentioned it but um I think I read it somewhere I think it I think it was Conor morriset that tweeted out about Lincoln Riley being in communication with Pete car over the last few days or weeks so that's pretty exciting um and um he said whether it's official or unofficial right being part of the program yep correct yep so for me what I'm most excited about man well at least what I'm hoping for is that you guys heard me mentioned this before man um I've talked to a couple former players um the they they feel former players a lot of former players feel like as if USC doesn't really treat their alumni as well as other Schools they're former players as well as other schools so I'm hoping having Pete Carroll back would change a lot of that you know so I mean I hate to be hearing out our our Dirty Laundry like that but it's it's it needs to be addressed you know that's something that's it's really disting here as a fan you know that our alumni is not treated like kings you mean that brought everything to this program brought championships to this program they should be you know held to a higher esteem man I'm not GNA put your uh post up there Ken don't don't don't don't bring that up come on Ken do you want look look at his most recent one oh my God all right pause I mean yeah that would that would be cool if you may be the gym or something something to that you know realm um obviously he understands the NFL side of of uh the contracts you know free agency all that and that's kind of where we're we're going toward so it's definitely has some experience really quick B Jones why' you pause Ken's thing I think I read the wrong one just scroll up you'll see I see yeah yeah okay but yeah like um I don't know it would be it just it's great to have him back on campus like I'm glad that uh he's not mad at USC or anything like that for the whole situation with the NCAA so well that is what it is but um Mark Cen did actually me something on mention something on his show um about the whole Taylor May maze AAL I don't know if you guys are aware of that no was not too happy with with P Carol you know kind of hit a bump um yeah well oh because of the because of the because he thought he was going to be drafted by the Seahawks so I mean hopefully that's been resolved they talk since then and you know I hope as many moons ago and both have different roles and careers now and pretty sure everybody's happy with their lives right now so yeah hopefully you know if they haven't they can't work that out but wasn't that the situation where uh P Carol ended up drafting the the Texas safety yeah I can't remember what his name he was basically all pro for for Seattle um I can't remember uh I can't remember yeah Anthony James is talking about yeah Ken shut up Earl Thomas there you go Earl Thomas there you go see it wasn't just me that didn't remember it so I said Thomas well I'm talking about so I get a half half strike right there five you can give me point five for that hopefully it's been Resa I mean I don't see how you can keep a grudge for that long over something that's business related right yeah they both have a job to do once you turn pro right need to be the best player he can be and then Pete needs to be the best coach he can be and you know try to make the best decision for the organization so sure Pete car had no hard feelings there but we'll see what happens if anyone had hard feelings it was uh Taylor May though no that's what I'm saying Taylor May so hopefully he's over it and that he understands that it's it was a business yeah and apparently he made the right one maybe at that point earol Thomas was a was a beast y can't deny that all right what else do we have uh well I have something before I know we didn't really mention it but uh Happy Birthday to uh Jennifer Cohen uh our fabulous ad for USC it is her uh birthday so just uh you know shout her out Lely all right so we have 10 days left until game day and we can't wait what the heck's going on here can't wait man that's good okay I was like what just happened but yeah 10 days till until game day and we still don't know the depth chart except for just the running back and the quarterback so that leads us into depth chart predictions so R if you can go ahead and open up the roster for USC so because we're going to go down the list here roll I gotta open up the roster yep open up the roster we're going to go down the list so you need to have the list with everyone on the on the team and we're going to go down the list and talk about who we think's going to be let's go one and do we just want to go one deep or do we want to do two deep probably to deep or let's go let's go too deep to deep I was hoping one deep yeah if we got do two we gota it up right that's fair that's fair it wouldn't be a depth chart if we don't go in depth true true is true or we can we could change it to starting lineup we doing I don't know we can do dep chart that's fine all right yeah that works that works yeah okay do you want me to put the dep chart on the on the screen so people can see it sure yeah that' be that' be nice Ro just don't want to look it up itself that's I thought yeah I already have it up myself just okay so what are we going to start with we want to start with off QB yeah yeah yeah we want to do offense y okay so we're gonna start on the offensive side can you invite some LSU folks to the show we want to but we've been trying we've been trying we're trying yeah we're trying we might we might try to do oh by the way we're gonna be doing this uh next week's show on Wednesday instead of Thursday since I will be traveling and uh guns will be traveling as well so Wednesday is when we're going to do next week's show but all right let's start with our QB's we already know qb1 Miller Moss it's my work computer K and now and we we're assuming we already know qb2 which is jadden mava since Miller Mo or I mean Lincoln Riley said that he was he was neck and neck with him so and I'm assuming Jake Jensen's qb3 and we're going too deep too deep too deep to deep just I'm just saying we already know Miller Moss is one so well give a shout out to Jake Jenson because he's done good G roid needs some love too man who is he wild [ __ ] like I don't know who Dylan GBA GBA gabia I don't know who that is or Jack Sten but all right moving on you're getting lost here yeah you're getting lost here what's going on so what are we doing next running backs man running backs yeah any anybody have any disagreements with the with the one two of what he said I don't think so but yeah we already know perfect we already know the running back so should we just move on from there then I mean hey maybe maybe someone has a different second maybe someone has a different second the only ones that we've really seen is Woody and Quinton well from what we hear we hear that you know they're happy with all four I'm yeah I'm hearing Brian Jackson yeah that's what I'm hearing watch yeah so I might put him at my two we'll see right we'll see Brian Jackson and and Marian have been on the on the scout team isn't that what they said no I thought that's what they said on the on the on inside Troy when they were doing that can confirm if he knows I don't know what you're talking about about but yeah no but no I have Quin J as my yeah yeah if anyone disagrees here then I don't know what yall have been seeing in in spring camp but I would love to see bjack in there and Marion but bjack like I I feel like he's defin like 230 he's definitely going to be a red zone uh finisher for us for sure yeah man so give me a Red Zone lineup real quick before we move on to next position a what your Red Zone Red Zone okay I'll I'll start I'll start I'll I'll say Brian Jackson as my running back uh give me dece Robinson give me um uh Joey ol Walter Matthews and and if that if that works which I can't think in my head right now I think so I think that would work in a formation yeah give me those players you 13 person sounds like I thought you going okay so 13 Personnel okay yeah maybe throw in my Ava for a few trick plays here and there oh there you go dude yeah him and Brian Jackson the backfield dude oh my goodness yeah I I could see a 13 uh 13 personnel but yeah like uh who were your wide receivers again did you say dece and jaob yeah dece and jaob okay yeah I I'm not mad at that I I will second that and then don't forget London too or not his no not London but um the heck for for yeah no no big is a what is your thoughts Jones no I'm right locking step with you maybe May quarterback but other than I mean really that's you know see the thing about the thing about uh when we do put in Mya like a lot of people are gonna uh guess a run though so I hope I hope he's getting ready ready for the RPO for that yeah oh yeah all right so now it gets a little tricky for it's too deep for for the wide receiver move to wide receivers man so how about you guys in uh in the chat go Ahad and participate man give me your I say let's go uh three four four yeah four W perfect perfect four wide receivers okay so everyone start with their their ones and then once we finish with the ones then you guys give us our twos so that works R you yeah R will go first um I would probably I'm assuming Hudson's gonna be there what is yours this is your prediction yeah yeah give us your four starting obvious sakaria Branch um Lane and um maai lemon and probably Hudson and Duce Robinson I mean I just feel like that's five no I said Duce Robinson is the fifth one yeah that's five no I know that's what I'm saying I said my four already okay okay okay yeah pretty much what Kent has in the comments that's pretty much what what I'm thinking gotcha gotcha okay okay I'll say the four sophomores yeah give me the four sophomores that's right sop all right Kobe Jones okay uh yeah I want to put Hudson in there I do because he he definitely has the ability to pop off but I gotta go with Zachariah Dees Makai and jacobe like just kind of going off of what happened in that little game I think they are the the guys but Hudson I wouldn't be surprised if he started yeah he just has the experience you know so I feel like that's G to give him a big advantage over the other guys also the note just so everyone I'm sure we're all aware but they rotate a lot so I mean technically the the to deep that we're about to talk about will be playing a lot well exactly so who the starters don't even matter yeah this doesn't like first team doesn't mean crap because it's going to be rotated a lot right so uh I'm g go Deuce jacobe J fair and maai Limon for your first deep or Too Deep explain explain the J Fair situation is that the Auburn transfer yeah he's the Auburn transfer he he yeah I think he's gonna be in the two deep for sure I think yeah I think I think he'll be to deep I'm I'm not I don't know I I don't know too much about him so uh I know he's a Speedster but he is I think he's just a slightly better route Runner than uh Zachariah right now I mean obviously based on what we've seen so far we'll see see more obviously this season they challenged him so how much yeah just how much he's improved but uh from what I saw J far J far has that already that's uh for me a separation to but but we don't know yet you know we haven't seen uh too many routes from uh Zachariah so far this year go ahead oh I was gonna say the reason why I'm not sure about Jay far is because we haven't really heard too much about his development like we haven't heard much from the coaches about uh him creeping up into that starting lineup or and even when they do the Recaps a lot of people are are saying that it's the sophomores and then Chiron that are getting a majority of the first team reps so that's why it kind of I'm not sure that JF will be the starter from the first play of the of the season but it like we said it doesn't matter right exactly it really don't I just I just hope that uh we they utilize Branch more kind of like uh when they would use uh yeah yeah I want to see him in the back field next to next to uh Woody I I want to see them like go split out both ways and the the linebackers have to be like ah crap who do we pick off at this point some jet sweeps soon yeah I CFB yeah if if they've been playing CF the jet sweets come on those come on Lincoln those are like if you're like third and 15 you can get you can get a good 20 yards with the jet sweeps for sure listen there's not a team in uh in all of college football that have enough Elite Corners to cover all our receivers man but the LSU guy doesn't seem to think so yeah yeah that's funny is Gabe still in here Tim gonna get a kick out of that's funny all right so now let's go with you know what we're not going to say uh first team we're gonna do this is one a one B basically so let's go with one B now I'll start it off uh Jay fair Kyle Ford kyen Hudson I'm gonna say as of right now because I believe he is doing scout team I'm gonna go Josiah Zamora as the part of the 1B yeah over Xavier Jordan right now yes over GJ Jordan y y yeah just because I right now Xavier is part of the scout team so my my thought is is that he's not going to be but hey SC shout shout out jiah you know also so he did get that he did get that scholarship so shout outs to him for that it's a nice moment for him I guess I'll go next in here so yeah I I think J Fair Kiron but I want to say I I think maybe jayen Richardson can maybe sneak into there and I and I want to give it to uh Xavier Jordan as well but like you said he's on the scout team so you never know but uh these are like the these are like the very like they're the they're the season vets so and jayen Richardson sure he may not have played in the in the the greatest of of competition when he was at tough's University but I he from his tapes he looks like he can separate so I wouldn't be surprised for me I'm gonna say Kyon um Kyle Ford of course that's my boy um Xavier Jordan and um yeah Jaden richon all right BR um for me it's gonna be deuce um J Fair I'll probably go with uh Jaden Richardson too with just the experience and probably Samora all right so that's receivers now let's go to gab's favorite position the tight ends I feel like the lock right now I I'll start I'll start I feel like the lock right now is Lake McCree for starting I think he's gonna definitely be this first one out there then after that I'm gonna say Cade uh they they've been talking about how he's been a really good block he's like really upped his game and blocking and that's a big thing especially in Lincoln Riley's offense you need to be able to block and um if they did a two if they did if they did a 13 Personnel I can see these two right here on each side but then Walter or sorry that's sorry I'll just go with Lake McCree for right yeah okay okay I was goingon to mention them as well it's okay yeah I I agree with you though uh BC I think those two those two are the guys and that third guy is is creeping up definitely all right so you got guns sorry he has Lake and then Cade yep Lake and Cade yep y yeah um and then also what what sorry to jump in What Ken said I mean Walker's kind of sliding up in here soon it's pretty interesting pretty deep room now starting to get real deep which is great which what we all wanted I think he's our most athletic uh tight end though is Walker Lions not Walker Lions I'm sorry Matthews sorry yeah say the guy with the 40 plus inch vertical um yeah I'm agree with you guys as well but U you know we know who number three is as well calm down gab yeah I'm agree with you guys on that one um Ro what you got same same two guys uh Lake as the number one and then Kate as number two okay all right now to the one that's probably going to take some time not take some time but it's gonna be an interesting it's I I think we all might agree with the first team but second team might be a little bit interesting all right let's shoot first round so we're going to offensive line all right go and shoot black CH oh okay so we already know uh we already know that Jonah monheim is going to be Center and then for right T or for left tackle Eman yep then Elijah pagee pretty much guaranteed at uh left tackle and then Alani Noah rard and then uh wow Mason Mason Murphy for uh right tackle yep do we all agree on that no disagreements here yeah no this PR much what I especially since elani has been taking a majority of all the first team reps from basically what we've heard from inside Troy so I think we can probably move on from that I think everyone I think everyone agrees in the chat and shout out to uh USC priority right um just a quick note my boy who on Long Street just through interception he's going mod day so mod day are playing right nowy are you watching it yeah kind of I didn't I didn't know they they stream I soon but like a is it a TV channel or no is it like a certain give me a second I'll send you guys link I just care sorry sorry do want to watch that too though right but uh Hey ju guu threw a interception right after his interview so yeah exactly not not to be comparing anything but you know hey but he is playing modern day so that's pretty much the Premier High School team and all oh it's on YouTube is it so this is the live stream cool yeah Ken he he did play yeah yeah um I guess he he stood it up and uh is is playing yeah maybe they shouldn't have had him play since he just threw a pick but right yeah yeah hopefully all is good you know hopefully the injury is not serious obviously he's playing but hopefully he doesn't reag gravate it yeah want that all right so doh do we want to talk about let's talk about second team for let's let do second team uh who wants go or second team start off uh guns all right yeah I'll I'll uh started off so I'm gonna go left to right so I have um I have Justin I mean I guess we could flipflop yeah I'm gonna have Justin no I'm gonna have Tobias as the as the backup left left tackle sorry um left guard uh we're goingon to go Micah Micah is gonna be my left guard uh or Michael benos yep yep Michael y exactly yep he's gonna be my left guard my second team uh Gino is going to be my second team Center okay uh Right Guard we're gonna have um where is his name uh OS Amos yeah for some reason I was yeah Amos and then right tackle is Justin Justin uh yes y baby Justin t okay let's see do I have any different I I honestly think that Killian would be uh behind uh um I think you yeah at Center for Jonah monheim who who did you mention guys Gino yeah I men Gino and I honestly will put Gino at Right Guard yeah that's what I was thinking too yeah I just know he's been doing both when since he's came back so that's why I put him at the center I feel like they like they like Killian but maybe they just a little bit more experience with Gino because they did that last year too they they had him kind of doing some snaps before he got hurt Trojan fight said I noticed in an interview Alon Noah with a heavily wrapped left hand see like when it comes to injuries to hands for uh for lineman I don't think it's that big of a deal in in all Essence so I when I played offensive line like back in Little League it wasn't a big issue I had a fractured hand and I played through it have we heard anything on Michael buono oh he's healthy he's been he's yeah he's been practic that's why I have him as my left guard guard yeah my backup left guard baby yeah I could see him uh there but I honestly think Hayden Trader can uh come in there at uh left I mean right tackle I'm big on that ke I think um just a matter of win for him yeah yeah because I I think I think next year once Mason Murphy uh because is Mason Murphy gonna be gone this J he could be back but still like a Trader would be a ret freshman or [ __ ] sophomore at the time so I think Hayden's definitely gonna be the future at tackle wh depending on which side they have at most part I think I think that's a good list yep that's all too deep all right so now we're gonna move to defensive side so who whoa whoa wait pause pause you guys are forgetting the kickers guys come on special teams can be the end yeah hey we got to rely on those kickers for those three points come on guys chill we we'll we'll get we'll get to them they they can hold up but uh do we want to start with linebackers or that's what I was thinking yeah let's go start D be okay so who U B Jones I think you should go first on this one well okay um obviously EMA e mascar on and I got Mason C man um behind them of course well my guy Eric Gentry and my other guy Ron Davis okay we haven't heard much because he did have a small injury in his hand I believe but I still expect be there I still expect him in his hands in his hands yeah figure that out I didn't realize he's not a red shirt I thought he red shirted no so this is his last year maybe he should have last I think he might have the co year should have the year right because he he's technically I think a 2020 I don't know but M that's kind of what I'm hoping is that like maybe a Gentry as well maybe there's a way for like one or both of them to to somehow stay another year yeah because we're definitely going to be losing out because if they can that's going to be a huge blow at linebacker right right watch out for uh Desmond Stevens and Elijah newbie yeah for sure for sure but yeah so uh guns you're too deep I'm sure it's not yeah I gota yep yeah I gota agree with with be Jones y yeah I I think we could all agree on and I don't even know if they really one or two like uh I think they're also one a one b as well for the linebacker but we already know that Easton is going to be calling the plays and uh and Mason's just going to be his Robin not saying that I'm not saying that as like he's a sidekick but they're they're Batman and Robin back there yeah um I think with with uh Gentry and and Rajan they're both very versatile yeah they could be find themselves on the field with those two either one either one of them you know depending on the type of person that we're going up against and be surprised if they eventually take over too I mean they have the ability and the skills to potentially just take over because uh from what I've noticed rayon's a game game game day player like he steps up big time during the games so he just needs to stay healthy and hopefully coaching sta uh gives him an opportunity to shine yeah he's he flies around and he's a short tackler man that's what I like yeah uh you know you're not going to see too many Miss tackles for him and uh Gentry man Gentry is just a game changer yeah he can take over a game himself sometimes you know of course he's a little undersized but you know 220 is 220 you know actually 215 but close enough you get it I think this I don't know if this is updated because I think he's 220 yeah I've heard he was 220 last I think he was 225 wasn't he no no I don't think but 220 is what the last I heard five pounds is not much of a difference though so right he definitely has heart we know that yeah he definitely does and definitely has the mental so it just sucks that these two their like their last two seasons have been wasted um yeah I what do you mean the last two like last year and the year before that yeah gotta yeah yeah CU rayon definitely looked good in in and uh the the first year with Lincoln Riley and uh he definitely looked good but then we already know that Grinch was Grinch so we didn't really get to see as much r on Davis as we wanted to and gentry was just he was very consistent for us and then for some reason just didn't get well we already know he just didn't get the play as he should and I'm I'm I'm wondering if the if the coach uh coach staff don't want him to uh do the interviews because he's a little too too honest he like to get a shot in he took some very J like some subtle Jabs honestly man I you guys would not blame him oh he's definitely not blaming him man at all because he definitely should have been on that field last year but a lot more than he was but he he's definitely having fun though yeah so so what are we doing next BR did you go uh no but it's pretty much the same for guys it's uh Arnold mastera uh starting with uh probably Mason cob and then Gentry and uh Ray John are probably gonna be interchangeable depending on the on what scheme we're playing at a certain time time of the game all right let's move on to D line okay scrolling do we want to do DM first oh yeah just give me your whole on well there's a lot of scrolling for that so let's just do with the defensive ends first no we're going front four right doing it play okay I just don't want to keep want to keep scrolling up and making the viewers a little sick so we can put all the DN all on one all go give me your DN yeah for me um start day one first team I'mma go yeah J Jamal and Anthony Jamal or Jamal sorry thank you yeah sorry uh yeah I don't know yeah I don't know what I'm thinking um and then brilin and then um solo as the uh would be like the two deep so wait uh who so you have Jam Jam Anthony and then brilin solo yeah I'm agree with them not Jamal J yeah Jam I think we we're gonna see Jam Muhammad and Anthony Lucas to start and then I can see brayan coming in afterwards or so and then solo but I I'm just very interested in Sam green though still like than cam Fountain well like yeah I know I'm I'm not like less interested about cam Fountain but like so we heard so much good things about Sam green and now it's just where where is he but on uscj hey man go to bed man you're not supposed to be up right now man it's it's 1020 out there exactly hey it's it's 9:30 out here for me so it's fine yeah but then USC J's up by like 4:30 that is true goinging man never sleeps yeah yeah y' don't know man how hard that man works man y'all need to show him more love content hey USC it's it's it's your promo right the bucked up the thing that has you going yeah the bucked up the the shots those energy shots you pop in at tomorrow man all right but all right do we do we all finish d r did did you have did you go I with the DN uh DN I'll probably have uh Jamal Mohamed starting with Shelby okay and then um Anthony Lucas and uh who am I missing [Music] here probably uh cam Fountain maybe or uh Sam green as your too deep okay oh solo I'm forgetting about [Music] solo so you said Sam green and solo no he said Sam green and cam okay Sam green cam Sam and cam okay all right not mad at that either um all right moving on to the the dline now yeah see that's the thing we're so deep at end man that could really go for three maybe four be honest D tackles let's give I think one is obvious one is clearly obvious with bear Alexander and I'm going to go with the veteran and Gavin Myers to start next to him I I just feel like he like uh he always comes up without even being prompted whenever they talk to uh uh coach Henny he he talks about Gavin uh coming in there and I think bear is gonna be of course coming in to make a statement and I guess I'll just go with my two deep after that uh Kobe is definitely going to be um uh in for nose tackle zero zero uh uh spot so and then Caron but then but but we can't we can't rule out Nate Clifton too no you definitely cannot in fact I have him as a starter next to Bear you have him as a starter okay yep followed by Jay and and Gavin okay but we you know who hasn't been mentioned a lot that I'm noticing somebody that we all pretty much high on is Elijah Hughes yeah so that's a big mystery there we haven't heard much about him but and we hav really heard much from R Mana too ratum Mana who sorry I'm just saying we haven't heard much about him either so uhhuh oh yeah just a little yeah not much yeah I agree though with with with B Jones on the uh Nate and bear um I'm gonna go um Gavin I don't mean to do this to to Kobe Pepe but I I Gotta Give it to Devin Tomkins I just feel like I don't know I just feel like this guy is going to show up with the scheme and um um just a just looks like a freak to be honest so um I think he's definitely be in some type of rotation to be honest guys Kobe's kind of in in his own lane you know been one of the only true zeros yeah you can't that obviously he you know he'll be in packages and everything he definitely like situationally do you think Carlon could be a true zero he can be yeah absolutely abely he still has a lot of room to grow coming as a freshman yeah and he still hasn't had the full uh Benny Wy experience right all right R's uh being a good dad right now so but I tell me if I'm wrong here I I think I can guess RS starting on here I think he he's goingon to say bear I think he's gonna throw coob Pepe in there okay I think he's gonna put coob at at starting and then his to deep is Carlon and then Jay I think that's it let's see what he says when he gets back what do you guys think he he might say definitely say that first team I'd say yeah definitely that first team he's definitely riding uh the Kobe Pepe hype though yeah let's see yeah Carlon is with the scout team but I I still think I think it's probably because he's just he just hasn't been here for the whole uh he wasn't here for the spring and yeah a lot of the Freshman are scout team first week which got get caught up to the speed he just gota get caught up to speed and get the Benny Wy treatment and then he'll be good the r give us your two or give give us your star probably gonna be bear uh Gavin Meyer oh oh you're was wrong BC I was wrong I was wrong and then um and then Kobe Pepe and I know what now I know what I'm up and down guys so I'm over here can I'm thinking in the spot so Kobe Pepe and then um [Music] Tomkins or actually Nate Clifton okay yeah yeah true yeah didn't mention him but I like that topkins though but actually I'm G put Kobe Pepe over Kevin Meer you're right there there it is got it yeah sorry when when you left to go be a good dad I I was trying to guess what you would say yeah I was like no Kobe pep is his breakout season man for the guy so I'm sorry Gavin we love you that you transferred over but our guy Kobe's been here longer so he definitely deserves it no I don't know I don't know if that's the thing but I will say this being that from what I've heard you know been doing a lot of lot of alisu scouting it sounds like they're gonna be running some heavier sets so we may be going with a heavier lineup and we do have some guys that you know maybe we'll see uh Devon Tomkins move out to a bodies or something like that I heard they doing like a 14 Personnel maybe yeah 12 13 uh Brian Kelly definitely said he he wants to run more 12 and 13 Personnel I heard I heard they really are high on their on their tight ends right yeah that's that's the strength of their their offense right now yeah at least that's and they even lost one so it just shows how deep that room is yeah all right so now that we've got the now let's go to the real hard position here so it sucks because they don't have them all in the same area safeties and cornerbacks so let's start with cornerbacks then we'll go to the safeties do we want to put Nicholls with the cornerbacks or nichs with safeties I think he's probably running cornerback right so Nicholls are with the cornerback group yeah yeah okay okay so this one's gonna be interesting because we've heard some interesting like takes on what they might do with the cornerbacks so who wants to go first on this one I'll go first okay I would go J are you doing one or two deep for you I'll do okay I'm going Jrock D Nick wait Jrock who's Jrock Jayden Smith okay J D Carlos Nickerson followed by I'm sorry we're doing uh nichel nickel too go greedy P okay yeah jayen Smith the Carlos Nicholson greedy Vance then I'm going job John Humphrey yeah and Anthony beavers Anthony beavers okay okay well it sucks because Anthony beavers is with the safey up for that yeah he's not on here for cornerbacks right I'll pop in real quick I agree with pretty much what B Jones said except for beavers I I'll put profet Brown the backup nickel guy um for now oh profit at nickel okay y wait did you say profit for Backup backup yeah yeah I agree with everything he said wa so what's your hold your whole two my whole two the yeah it's it's Jaylen Smith the Carlos and greedy and then like you said jacobe John Humphrey and then I just replaced beavers with profit okay okay um for me yeah I think like it's very interesting that like well they've challenged Jaylen to be a jack of all trades and a lot of people they're saying that he's their best DB in general so uh Jaylen and plus he has the experience like I don't did my video drop on jayen Smith I think it did I can't remember at this point I'm getting my days mixed up on that those videos but Jaylen Smith is starting and then D Carlos easily and then I I'll put greedy Vance at number one so all what B Jones said and then jacobe and then yeah John Humphrey's easily at backup and I will have I will have to go with profit or not profit uh anony beavers at nickel uh but I like profit as well at cornerback especially after Louisville game right now we can't forget the Young Guns marcelus and uh and Brayden but and we can't forget about Isaiah Rubin too or Isaiah Rubin he's been getting a lot of Buzz too had a great let R go here yep it pretty much it's kind of like for me tossup from what Gunner said in B Jones pretty much the same thing and it's see they're gonna be uh Propet brown or or beavers changing on that second unit pick one I'll go with uh beavers okay got yeah I like the I like the nickname from uh Anthony James sticky Vance he's he's proba he's he's really good in coverage from what I've seen from just like the uh the highlights that they've been giving out but too he's also familiar with uh LSU already Haven played y he played 39 snap snaps in their last game only giving up one pass oh again uh in the when he was at FSU yeah yeah and and did UCLA play LSU last year or is this their or is this their first year in that playing them because I know UCLA plays LSU this year no they didn't play him last year okay so okay I was want to see if maybe John humph knew a little bit about them but yep D Carlos Woody marks we have some we have a lot of players that have had experience against them yeah Jay far knows them yep dang safeties right going moving safeties safeties yes all right scrolling scrolling and all right who wants to go first on this one I don't want to go first on this one I've gone first the last like 18 times so I'll go first I'll go first I go Ramsey Bryson stop it Kamari rsy uh ail Arnold okay and then uh San branch and then uh what else do we got uh is beaver playing safety yep he's playing everywhere he's playing he's doing basically what Jaylen has been doing as well learning the whole defense but he's also getting linebacker experience too yeah I'll go beavers in second unit he'll be exchanging okay I'll go so Kamari Ramsey obviously beavers will be my second starting safety um and then we have ay Arnold and Zion Branch as the two deep I want beavers in the box at all times put Kamari up in the field you know so Kamari is the free safety and then Beaver strong yes guys I don't disagree with you at all the only thing I'm thinking is that you know we brought ail Arnold here and he is the senior that's the only reason that I would give him the slight nod over Anthony bie but I definitely Anthony needs to be on that field you know yeah exactly regardless yeah exactly so since I already mentioned him it's been a nickel um I'm gonna go with ailan and Kamari with Zion if he's healthy and since I already mentioned beber I'm g go with let's get a young guy in there man let's go with uh Christian Pierce no love for Bryson all right listen no disrespect to Bryson he one of the better safeties in the Big 10 so put respect on Bryson's name man but uh yeah I rather have him in the box if if anything see okay I re okay so Kamari already easily number one because he has he knows the the defense and he he he was great last year with UCLA so um no doubt he's going to be starting I've been balancing between ail and Zion and Zion like when he's when he's on he's on and when he's healthy he's he's great and he he he had he had a decent season last year before got injured but then a Arnold is definitely very he's a seasoned vet he knows what he's doing he uh so I'm G to give the nod to ail just because Zan kind of he got hurt in spring so we don't know it's it's not major he had a ma he had a minor procedure so but who knows when he's G to be full health at that point but um easily Zion's G to be two one a or I mean one B behind ay um and then and like I I have Anthony beavers at nickel as well but I can see him going back there as well so him and then yeah so yeah these two uh Kamari and ail are my first and then Zion and Anthony are my two deep but Bryson Shaw he might get in there he he'll definitely get some snaps but I don't think he's going to he'll be the third rotation that part so but we'll still see a lot of Bron I feel like I'm not I I I don't think we'll uh he's gonna be on the bench that [Music] often any anything else at that point for safeties does r need to go no he went first no I just won I went ear yeah all right so here's here's your category role kickers p punters so punters R you go first I have no idea who who's Eddie's gonna be it's gonna be Eddie yeah I think they they did bring these people in though right to kind of give them some competition yeah also um that freshman he's like a punter kicker I heard been doing some some pting stuff as well Ryan yeah Ryan yeah yeah I did hear that he was getting some reps at punter as well but we can all agree Eddie's gonna be the punter right he was a he was a all Pack 12 last or the two year two seasons ago so hoping hoping now that we have Ryan dhy as our special teams coordinator that he's gonna go get back to that uh First Team all allamerican now for uh for punting let's go to Kickers now do we think Dennis Lynch is gonna beat out Ryan Tyler he's not beating on Michael Michael's got a scholarship yeah yeah that is true but yeah unfortunately it's just wait he played at Minnesota huh huh yeah he play Minnesota yep yep and then he went to Mr hugs for a little bit Yeah I expect him to be our kicker from from the start and then go from there you know if he he not consistent I'm sure they'll change with all these options they got yeah we just need we just need touchbacks I heard uh B Jon still has nightmares uh picturing Dennis Lyn's kick against UCLA you're on mute B Jones yeah me B Jones yeah so no comment man I actually think um the person who would do the touchbacks might be the Freshman Ryan um I haven't heard much about who is doing the kickoffs but I just know he's got a pretty big leg for for him so why not just whoever whoever just make sure you're getting touchbacks that's all we care about yeah that's all we care about as long as you like kick at least five five yards into the end zone we don't want any like 100 like at the like U at the front of the end zone because for the most part they always come out at that point we just need solidified touchbacks but I'm I'm sure that Ryan dhy is gonna choose the right kicker because he is our special teams coordinator absolutely y so you guys know if we're talking about kickers this long it is time to wrap it up no but yeah but I think uh I like what I'm hearing I'm feel very confident going into this game um more excited than I've been in quite some time man about this tro Trojan program man so yeah everything's looking up right now especially with with Pete Carol coming back on campus so y so anybody got any final words final thoughts we get out of here no we'll be on uh Sunday we'll do I believe we're doing like a season projection we'll do our own each you know what we think each game win or loss and then obviously again next Wednesday is um our first official preview for the 2024 season and kind of works out because the depb chart drops that day so we can take a deeper dive as well on theine I really hope they drop it at a reasonable time I think they will but not while we're live and we're like oh wait when does death chart comes out but yeah I'm pretty sure it it'll come it'll drop way before the live it better and then maybe hopefully what our what our predictions are right hopefully or at least I hope at least one of our predictions are right so and then uh we should announce hopefully by what like do we want to talk about the meet and greet yeah beeraw yeah that's the place beer Haw yep that's the place so make sure you're there 4430 we're just taking over there's no reservations or whatnot um because we're we're just not going that route so uh if you want to show up and hang out 4 o'clock 4:30
