poll question today because quite frankly I didn't want to do one Sam what's going on man what's going on buddy how are you I'm in a great move I I watch part of the comedy on Netflix with Connor stallions Ryan day has his pre First Press Conference of the regular season Mike Hall you should have listened to us everybody we told you Mike Hall was gonna be in trouble and that came down today as well and cutdown day one o'clock so you're going to start uh streaming in probably during this show uh a bunch of players uh that are going to be cut congrats to Westerville own talked to his dad today Jaylen Gill made the practice squad of the LA Chargers so good for him always good to see a former Buckeye land on his feet in the NFL so good Andy was one of the well he was involved in a story that we have coming up on what's on the web so looking forward to that nice nice I and I we we talk about you know what the what are the Browns going to do it sounds like the offensive Line's going to be a big issue for them so I I I think I saw a story that said one of the cutdowns that the Bengals are going to be making would be an offens offensive lineman that could wind up in Cleveland so it is you know it kind of sucks to see guys uh getting released getting cut whether it be because they're just not good enough or it's a money issue right now but a lot of those guys if you're still talented are going to land on your feet you're land on their feet somewhere else in the league so it is uh I think this is probably why they give that that that real long time period about two weeks before uh from the the last preseason game to the beginning of the uh the regular season so it's always interesting to see some of the pieces moving around I did watch uh the podcast from yesterday uh fantastic job obviously breaking down the letters of uh the notice or letter of allegations uh from the NCAA to to Michigan and I think I think the Genie's finally out of the bottle that a lot of these people that maybe were reserving what they their thoughts on the entire matter uh I guess they didn't want to jump the shark or jump the gun I think now they they finally realize how serious this is and not only how serious it is but I think the NCAA absolutely has the nuts uh on on Michigan right now well I I was a little SED and I'll be honest with you I respect Dan wetzell I think he's one of the true journalists in sports but I did not know Wetzel is an executive producer in the Netflix comedy on Conor stallions I did not know that so you know we Jerry and I interviewed him you could find it on YouTube you can go to qfm 96.com and check out that interview but in the interview he said listen they don't like to suspend uh you know they don't like to vacate wins which is not true they did it in Kentucky a couple years ago they do not like Bowl bands which isn't true they don't like limiting scholarships so then listening to Dan I thought well he's a respected guy I mean maybe he makes sense on this stuff I don't know what they NCAA is going to do but then I watched the Connor stallions comedy today on Netflix and I realized okay Dan's in on this and there's there's so many different layers of people that are involved in this Connor stallion's comedy and then it makes you so we had all this info coming up and we put all the pieces together and the NCAA does their notice of allegations and we talked about that yesterday and you know what's in there and then this documentary hits and then if you put everything together it just makes you think like all right we know that Michigan members who are in this documentary is biased as hell they reported things that some people thought was true Michigan fan dumb Michigan fan low IQ and if you believe anything in this documentary please please please please I will sell you my home right now for $5 million you should buy my in fact I just want you to buy one of my chickens for I I tell you what I have 12 chickens 11 hens and one rooster you can Michigan fan if you believe anything in this Conor stallion documentary you should believe that my chickens lay golden eggs that are worth $3 million and by the way they lay eggs every day that's true that's a fact seven of them are laying eggs right now and the other four will lay eggs golden eggs Michigan fans and I will sell you these chickens for $100,000 a piece because that's how eff stupid you have to be if you believe anything in this comedy that Netflix released well I I think we got an answer too on like one of the questions was like where's where's all this information coming from right where is it you know H we obviously know the NCAA is not going to they're not going to tell Michigan right they're not going to leak this information unless you know there's somebody on the inside so we just assumed that all of this the leaking of the information was coming from Michigan a way for them to control the narrative right well now that the letter of allegations comes out we don't have that drip anymore we don't have those leaks coming out anymore so at all but answers the the one question that we had that you know where is all this speculation or where is all this information coming from it was it was coming from Michigan as the As and a way for them to manipulate the public and control the narrative yeah they've handled this really poorly after watching the you know that that comedy today and I can only comment a com call it a comedy because it's really laughable I mean one thing about Connor stallions if you watch this folks he's a complete psychopath a complete and and we are lucky as a society that he was really into football because I think he's kind of a danger in societ to society I'm I'm being legit he is a psychopath uh highest degree highest level psychopath don't comment unless you watch it then if you watch it you're like Absolut his dad calls him Rainman in the documentary he's not Rainman though he's obsessed he writes quotes he says well I I've every quote I've ever heard I put it on these documents on these Word documents and I share he has no friends outside of people in Michigan one of the biggest big mouths and and listen I don't know if this media member is a good guy or a bad guy I just know that he can't be trusted Isaiah Hall with like wolverine.com or whatever he's doing he's Connor stallion's buddy admits like I'm friends with Connor stallions he's protecting Michigan and Connor stallions you can't take a word that this dude says is Gospel or even a inch of credibility with this guy the whole thing with Michigan Sam from beginning to end has been laughable how Santa Ono the president looks like a big buffoon Jim Harbaugh looks like a buffoon crime Kingpin Crime Boss Spider-Man looks like a a buffoon it's how you I it's two things it's the deed you do and how you handle the deed and you can look at life from top to bottom of how you handle situations and then how you how the situations happen and then how you deal with situations and this is a class A study folks of how you don't handle situations I have gone from thinking my opinion is going to be I thought maybe a year bull ban maybe a loss of money um maybe a reduction of scholarships into thinking that they're GNA vacate every damn win that this team has been involved with the last three years I think you're GNA see major suspensions on that staff I think you're going to see reductions of scholarships I think after watching this Netflix thing and we could get into it Sam of what Conor stallions has said to the NCAA what's factual and he's lying out of his teeth about things I just think they've handled it the wrong way and I think the NCAA is absolutely gonna nail these guys and it's not it's the deed and how they handle the deed afterwards that's Troublesome for M Michigan right and and we talked about this a little bit pre-show when we were in The Green Room um if you look at how D NCAA is handling this and I've always said this I I love King Petty I love when people are pett your sound is you're in a tunel by the way oh hang on we better now no you're the same oh [ __ ] I think it's your microphone well it's the same microphone that's always swi back to the other thing you were using I I don't wanna you have to it sounds horrible people are gonna turn us off there you go sorry I'm just helping you the people out um but but it it's funny how you good test you tell me n you're kind of echoing look at the chat have the chat if they don't believe me is chat chat does Sam sound like he's in a wind tunnel okay people are saying he sounds fine I don't think you do but who knows I'm a stupid idiot so you can just jump back on we'll just it is what it is there you go by the way I've been trying to I've been trying to update to Windows 11 since 10: a.m. that's why I was on the tablet at first and the the PC second so I apologize if I sound all screwed up um let them live that's what little L says let them live let live King Petty right so if you look at how the NCAA has handled this not only have they sped up there what seemingly have they sped up their process as far as the investigation uh as as far as investigations take because we've talked about in the past they're a monolith they move incredibly slowly they're whether they're methodical or not is is up for for argument but they always move slow theyve seemed to have sped this up dramatically uh to the point where we we now they got this they got this notice of allegation out before right before the Conor styan Netflix uh documentary came out and let's let's also like don't bury your head in the sand that was on purpose the other point that I want to make and I think Valente talked about this yesterday I think is spot on what is 90 days from Sunday ah it's the Buckeye game Buckeye week that's Buckeye week so they literally are are gonna saddle Michigan with the their response to come back the deadline is as a high State week it's the game week so like if you don't think that the NCAA has purpose purposefully done it this way as a uh as a reaction to how Michigan has handled this entire process you're dumber than you're dumber than a normal Michigan fan like I just don't did everything the NCAA right now they're they're kind of showing their hand in a regard that I think they're gonna absolutely try to bury Michigan as much as possible well it's it's twofold too is is Michigan gave the finger to the NCAA in college football right I mean and look at the beginning and and it you know Santa Ono bet you know big 10's coming after Michigan bet screw you we're going to lawyer up you're never going to get us then they took their ball and went home and got the the way they've handled it though in such an arrogant kind of and listen hey if you want to have that like hey you're coming after us we're not going to help you we're going to be arrogant right back we're cocky we're the number one team in the country we're the national champs you can have that type of attitude you can have that type of Swagger if that's what you want to do the problem is is back then it felt great it felt great for Michigan fans to say FU Santa Ono you're my guy you're telling them go back you're with us we're Michigan man everybody's against us screw you NCAA and screw you Buckeye fans because we beat you three years in a row we got it we got the Swagger we're the Champs and then you're in the denial mode and off season all these stories are coming out uh leak story stories Isaiah hle leaking Conor stallion's crap Jim Harbaugh leaves that's okay we got Chiron Moore uh level one violations come a show cost comes to Harbaugh now that Swagger is turned into deep down you could still have Swagger you could say people are bitter but the bottom line is everybody knows that it's up every and and now you're gonna pay and the NCAA took that and said all right you're shoving in our face and you got the Swagger and you're doing the BET and in denial and won't cooperate and lying in this Netflix comedy but now you will pay the piper for your attitude folks Jim Trestle would still be coaching at Ohio State if he simply told the NCAA the truth he decided yes he would Sam he li no he wouldn't be he would be the athletic director he would have retired probably within five years oh I don't know if they were G regardless he wouldn't have been fired ored if he told the truth to the NCAA and what did Ohio state do they suspended the players what six games six games took a bull ban yeah something like that took a huge bll ban when they were 12-0 which cost this team a national championship they should have took it the year before but the damage was done you didn't tell the truth to the NCAA your coach lied three times and you and Ohio State got hammered it wasn't just tattoos a lot of different stuff but Ohio State coach did not handle it the right way yeah I know why he did it but he didn't handle it the right way now you fast forward to Sam to an entire program that's not handling it the right way so what's gonna happen to them the what have I told you from the beginning from the beginning of all this if any NCAA investigation the NCAA hates two things they hate having a finger wagged in their face and they hate being lied to Y if we talk if we if we have a genuine objective conversation and comparing what Michigan has done the last three years at least three years to to what Jim Trestle was essentially fired for there there is a Michigan was just grossly directly trying to Skirt the Rules to give themselves an advantage in a game that their opponent did not whereas Ohio state had a bunch of guys taking memorabilia that they were given that they won by going to a bull that they got by beating Michigan and trading them for tattoos and other vices let's just put it that way you cannot tell me where you have one program going directly out of their way skirting the rules to give themselves an advantage over the other illegally give themsel an advantage over their opponent versus bunch of players taking their stuff and trading it for tattoos it was against the rules the same thing it was against the rules just like Reggie Bush was yes I'm not saying it wasn't against the rules and they shouldn't be punished but I'm saying anybody that wants to equate or conflate Michigan's current problem with a highest state is on crack that's my point by the way not the same Danny canel spoke out after watching the documentary Danny canel I wanted to hear more details before really having a strong opinion on what Michigan did but it's clear they clearly cheated they have blatantly lying about the extent of it they deserve harsh punishment the entire Harbaugh area era at Michigan is Tainted I couldn't agree with Danny Canal Moore the entire last three years after KN after knowing through the ESPN report what the notice of Al allegations is watching The Comedy sign stealing it's called involver involving Conor stallions there's no doubt about it the entire three years is Tainted Conor stallion portrays himself as this savior of Michigan football that you go through the Journey of Conor St he's a psychopath by the way a complete a complete and utter psychopath and he shouldn't be able to leave the home he should be probably in an institution for the safety of fellow citizens around him it starts how he walked in when he was in the Navy Academy he walked in he was on the sidelines and suddenly he realized his first game was Navy versus Ohio State and he realized well I'm smarter than any this is his quote I'm smarter than anyone on the Ohio State Sidelines so if there's signals I can figure the signals out better than anyone so he acts like he cracked the code that I'm the Savior Michigan was struggling until I went there Jim Harbaugh approached me I never gave anyone tickets for advanced scouting I never stoed signs I just cracked the code and studied more harder than everyone else he says it's easy I could tell right away who was who was doing all this stuff so they they go through this documentary Sam for 45 minutes trying to get the naive to believe that he is this Ultra Beautiful Mind type rain even dad called him Rainman this obsessed guy with college football who figured it out and who's smarter in his words smarter than everyone at stealing signs then the central Michigan thing comes out they hand him a picture and said it's not me I don't know who this is doesn't even look like me and Dave Porto says no it's him he told me it's him yeah poro couldn't have gotten on the same page before that by the way I don't know uh Conor the Conor stallion hired the guy who beat the NCAA with Johnny Manzel the attorney then when asked about Central Michigan says well you'll have to ask Connor if that was him on the sidelines but if Connor says it wasn't him it wasn't him and at that moment Folks at 47 minutes into this comedy everything that Conor stallion said if you'd like to believe it if you choose to believe it which I don't is thrown out the window because he's caught in a lie on the sidelines at Central Michigan so everything is thrown out the window because he's lying he's lying about it all it's a I'm a victim Michigan is throwing me under the bus I'll take the grenade for Michigan but he acts like he was the savior of Michigan football and when you think about it folks he was 42 and 22 0 and5 against Ohio State 40 and3 3- 0 against Ohio State when Connor stallion shows up he cheated they should vacate three years and everything they accomplished as a team see here's the thing Sam Michigan fan can think what you want it doesn't no one gives a [ __ ] what you think because the rest of the world is here you're on an island that can't accept reality because everything everybody knows that everything you did is Tainted and that's factual that's not opinion so let me ask you a question because I I've got an opinion on this anything short of Michigan losing their National Championship whether it's unrecognized whether it's stripped whatever it is he's going to be a win to Michigan fan is it not I would think so but I mean if they if they vacate years if they vacate the last three years if they neuter them for the next five to 10 years going forward it's not going to matter to Michigan fan so if if the NCAA truly does want to absolutely Hammer Michigan and they realize the severity of what Michigan has done the lengths that Michigan has done to get to this point to get to the to the promised land of bringing home a trophy that they did last year they have to do everything in their power to not only vacate that to punish them for what they did but then say hey we're not going to recognize this we're not going to recognize the Big 10 championships we're not going to recognize the cfp and start leaning on the cfp and the conference I think the conference is gonna pick this back up and come back at them harder too I think they will but they have to lean on the cfp because anything short of Michigan being stripped of their National Championship to to Michigan fan gonna be a win I think the cfp is going to play ball right I they do but I just I think unless unless they they lean on the cfp to get them to strip them uh to get them get the cfp to strip Michigan of the title it's a win for the fan that listen the Ohio state had that entire season stripped vacated they've done it before you can have the opinion well they don't like to vacate wins I don't think that's the case if they find out that you know they have the games that Michigan cheated 58 some games multiple opponents they're going to look at all the time Connor stallion was there and then vacate those wins the question is though Sam is after that starting with Michigan State are they going to say all right from Michigan State in 2023 on up until that national title game Conor stallions wasn't involved in the program does it count well they could come back I would imagine and say the coach is new and the coaches were still involved yeah I mean until until those coaches are punished until those coaches get whatever punishments coming their way just like they do with players if the player participated in the game they could vacate that win saying they were playing with an eligible player right so why couldn't they why couldn't they apply the same rule to the to the coaching staff everybody knew I think the players knew and I think the players obviously knew I think the way they Justified it though so the players didn't know that they were stealing signs is they just portray this guy is an idiot savant who knows all the signals right so the players probably I I would say players probably didn't know that he was paying and giving tickets to people across the uh across the country at different college football venues to advance uh Advance Scout opponent signs I don't think the players realized he was doing that I think the players thought that we have a Rainman type character who is really good at stealing signs all teams try to do it to an extent right that's why there's eight guys on the sidelines with different signs and doing different things I think the player thought that this guy is just really really good at it like JJ McCarthy said a year ago everybody does it we do it too no one has ever denied that they stole signs and I don't think people are denying that signs are stolen in college football Sam I think where it's GNA get Conor stallions is on the sidelines against a Michigan State team wearing gear from Central Michigan all the video all the tickets who funded it you cheated Advanced C scouting uh you're not just a beautiful mind dude you took it to the next level and that's what's going to get Michigan sunk not that he could read signs and decipher signs he probably could in a way but you have to wonder could he decipher signs or was everything Advanced scouting well it's not whether or not he could decipher signs it's how he got the signs and how he what what got him from a to d right or 8 well he claims that he just put 2,000 filmed himself doing 2,000 signals and then just memorized it so he he claims that if he did a signal he could he could tell where the play was going no matter what because he could he knew the signals yeah [ __ ] um I'm gonna hit uh hit the super chat before we get

Ohio versus everyone qfm96 the Tor and Sam Grooms doing a lot of talk on the comedy released by Netflix the seal Steiner Seer uh Connor stallions they call it a documentary I call it a comedy absolutely laughable he's the victim he's the genius he was never on the sidelines full of lies full of fluff full of plants um his buddies and there is a figure who talks during the comedy bro Ohio and he's got a mask he's got sunglasses he's in a track suit and a lot of people on the internet want to know who this person is and I actually do know who this person is um I don't know if I feel super comfortable outing this person but I will um that person is Ryan day's brother you heard it here folks you heard it here Ryan day's brother I mean I'm surprised I'm surprised Zach show wasn't the one that broke that one because they're the one that came up with that that entire idea yes bro Ohio is Ryan day's brother I think Ryan day's brother helped the NCAA write the notice of allegations too so what I've heard you had me going for a minute I thought you legit knew I do it's Ryan day's brother okay I I tell you what there's more truth to that than there is what Conor stallions is mentioned in the docent based upon thing I've read you know we thought it was just going to be this giant puff piece and two degree a puff it's a huge puff piece it's it's laughable it sounds like some of the reporters and stuff were actually ra rather critical of the story so I give them a little credit for that I think the reporters watching it not the reporters in it well the I I think Netflix does a good job in a lot of aspects but documentaries is not one of them especially when it comes to the sports side of it agree Netflix needs to pick the game up a little bit they're soft yeah need to pick game up but you know what it's genius because they paid Conor money because he's going to be living in his parents basement hopefully hopefully something legally can put this guy away or get him on meds man he is scary I know psychopath I know I've been talking with Jared a little bit off off air and I I think I think he's on to something I think I completely agree I think there's more on the back end of this as far as the investigations go again if the FBI got involved because somebody was trying to crack computers somebody's going to prison well he was stealing hard drives so again that's my point like there's more to this there's going to be more Fallout from this I still think there's a a gambling component to it uh you obviously have the Cyber crimes which goes across State's lines which bring in brings in the uh the Fed so I think there's way more to this but you know I think this is this is all it's going to take to bury the program yeah I think I think because because what's what's going on folks is he talked to the NCAA they show some of it and he talks about it in the documentary and um he denies the central Michigan and then you have D Dave Pai going well no he told me that he was on the sidelines you're they're what Michigan's doing is they're laughing in the NCAA face it doesn't matter if the fans think it's legit or not the fans can laugh in our face podcaster face they could comment on stories it doesn't matter what they think or or or what their opinion is it's really irrelevant it's irrelevant what Michigan's opinion is and the facts are the facts they lied they cheated the last three years are tainted and now you're going to pay for it um you know you could have the opinion well we still won the title and and that's cool you you went on the field and you won the title the problem is is everybody out there outside of your little bubble of stupid fans on the island of stupidity knows you cheated and everything's tainted you will not get credit for this the history books will come back Sam 30 years from now and say the the last time michigan won was the Conor stallions championship in 2024 it's always GNA be labeled whether you like it or not it doesn't matter your opinion it will always be labeled the tainted Championship forever yeah the the the curtain has been pulled back we know what the Wizard of Oz is and I think everybody forever is going to remember the or put an asterisk on this Championship because again let's be 100% real what has what Michigan accomplished what Jim Harbaugh and Michigan accomplished in the last three years does not even closely resemble what he did in his first five 49 and 22 0 and five 49 and 22 how do you turn it around to get 40 and three you cheat absolutely that's how you turn it around so on to uh on to happier news uh we got some information out of Ryan day today he had some press time uh his press conference today hit us with a couple of nuggets Devin Brown is qb2 uh Sunny Styles will be starting at the will linebacker position uh Tegra is your starting Right Guard Jeremiah Smith will start uh and Chip Kelly is going to be coaching from the Press Box I think I think that it's good that chip Kelly's up there I could see the entire field it's you don't have two like offensive maniacs and I mean that in a nice way on the field at the same time Chip is going to be able to see see Ryan has a guy that he's gonna trust 100% in Chip Kelly probably trust Chip Kelly more than anyone in football that he's ever worked with and he has that guy being able to see things and delay and and relay things to Ryan day that most people won't see you could argue and say Chip Kelly is one of the most intelligent offensive Minds in college football and he's going to be with one of the best play callers in college football making the plays Ryan Day double-checking that and and you know what else it does too Sam is when Ohio State doesn't have the ball it frees up Ryan Day a little bit to hey chip what are you seeing so they can communicate with each other of what are you seeing how do we exploit this two great minds in college football talking about what can we do next series to exploit what the team is doing defensively and how they're matching up in game adjustments not waiting to halftime doing it in the game where Chip Kelly seeing things relaying it to Ryan day and then coming up with a game plan and a series of plays to exploit what the defense is doing I absolutely love that chip Kelly's up there if you're an oldtime Buckeye fan you remember this do you remember during the Tres years in 2007 when they moved lick Luke fickle and kind of gave Luke that co-defensive coordinator role and moved Luke fickle up in the booth and then who was the defensive coordinator at the time uh it was after well after Puget was that no no no it was during tresa ha it was after Danton right the old guy and then Luke eventually took over but they moved Luke up in the booth and it changed that defense and when you get eyes upstairs that know what they're doing it just helps the play caller on the field yeah and I guess my point or takea away from this is you're going to have you're going to have Ryan Day who's basically the quarterback's coach and the offensive coordinator and Chip Kelly one of them has to be in the booth well guess what you're not putting your head coach in the booth so I I've always been curious as to why coordinators especially offensive not necessarily defensive even though I think it would help but the offensive coordinator wouldn't want to be in the booth to see everything from that Vantage Point anyway to see what fully what the defense is doing hcock or something like that it could have been yeah I'm not done Jim hcock is that right yes um to to be able basically be able to see not only what your team is doing as far as alignment and formations but what the defense is doing as well so I've always wondered why offensive coordinators don't want to be in the booth anyway I understand why defensive coordinators May or coordinators maybe don't um but also I think one of the game changers this year is you have those realtime tablets that are going to be on the sidelines as well um I don't know when they're going to be cutting off the microphones to the helmets but you're going to have H communication between chip and Ryan Ryan and will basically being able to communicate directly to Will based upon before the the headsets are cut off so I I do like the idea of Chip up in the booth allow him to see things a little bit better and obviously they're going to be able to relay information and you know Ryan da still going to be involved in it maybe he's just not calling every single play directly um as far as the other moves I mean I I'm not surprised Devon Brown is the qb2 going going forward uh at the beginning of the season I think potentially if saan is able to develop a little bit more we might see that change maybe halfway through the season at the earliest uh I think Sunny Styles being named at the will linebacker was a no-brainer I think we all knew that uh it's good to see Tegra starting up and it's also good to see them uh the offensive coordinator and uh a heartline basically putting Smith out there saying listen dude you've earned it go get it uh instead of playing favorites on you know whether who's who's more veteran than the other guy so that's not necessarily what we've seen in the past so uh I I very much anticipate to see big things out of Jeremiah Smith going forward yeah I think all three receivers are GNA have monster years for Ohio State right and I mean it just proves the skill that they've been seeing uh out of Jeremiah Smith to be a freshman starter I mean he has the uh chance now to set records at Ohio State when it comes to a freshman it also shows you Carson hinsman really struggled last year at times right and he gets beat out uh you know they still have Luke Montgomery there uh gives you a little depth on the offensive line with guys who have started the sunny style stuff you're right you know once they did mov they had to find it's almost like they had to find a spot for sunny Styles right Sam and it wasn't G to be at safety he's a bigger guy he's a thumper he's got speed he's got athleticism playing line Packers the perfect spot and now you have Cody Simon and sunny styles that onew punch I would guess that this was just on paper the best linebacker Duo that we've had in a long time it it's been a I don't want to see say weak part of our team because there's really at Ohio State there isn't a weak part of this team but it's just hasn't been to the same standards that the defensive ends have not been to the same standard as the rest of the team and I think that changes this year absolutely the only thing that's a little disconcerting to me is I heard them announce that the uh the they're going to be rotating guys at the will linebacker and my thing is like listen let's just get the best guy in there and let him play give that guy the Reps right you're having two or three guys like I understand why you rotate defensive lineman um but I don't understand necessarily why you name the guy the starter and then immediately right after that in the same breath say hey we're gonna we're also going to rotate these other two guys in there so that that's a little don't you think CJ Hicks is different than Sunny Styles though that's yeah that's possible but it's it's just weird that he would say that in the same breath you know I mean you could even move and I and I don't know how creative they're going to be defensively and Jim nolles is going to be but you could even move Sunny Styles back to safety and then CJ Hicks and they could play him at the same time I don't know if they plan on doing that or not maybe that's a question for the media or I need to go back and see if it was asked during the press conference at all but but maybe they're on the field at the same time to give different looks to the offense I I would give CJ Hicks some time uh you know if I'm playing Sunny Styles I'm giving him maybe 75% of the snaps the first team snaps and then maybe CJ hick 25% of the first team snaps I I think though through the first five five games where they're not or the first four games where they're not playing anybody Sam up until that Iowa game I don't think the week one lineup or what they do from a player rotation standpoint will be the same lineup they play against Iowa or even Oregon I think that I you don't want to show because they're going to Cakewalk they're going to pile it on the first four weeks of the season and I don't think they're going to show everything they have to Iowa or Oregon yeah I would imagine if you if you play a team for example like Iowa probably not GNA throw the ball a ton that's when you they they've talked about maybe going to more of the the 4-3 instead of the 425 so take one of the DBS off and put one of those other linebackers in give you a little more meat there in the box like that makes way more sense and it's probably just a Personnel issue against who you're matching up with like like it's just weird to me that that was the first thing or that was so closely to saying hey we're going to start Sunny Styles like we're we're really impressed at his transition from from safety to linebacker but also we're going to rotate these other guys in it's like the mere fact that he did let the first part of the sentence or the statement marinate a little bit before his mind immediately went to hey we're gonna rotate these other guys in there is just just I don't know I kind of get the wrong Vibe out of

Lauren gmail.com go on the oov podcast man we're just a few days away from the start of the season a lot of big stuff planned uh this year looking forward to that we got to get Zack on uh this week to do a segment as well wrestling back on Thursday I can guarantee you that for the final segment of the show we'll do some NFL segments too we'll do around the NFL segment I know it's a lame lame name uh we'll do like an NFL news and notes segment we'll do a college football news and notes segment so we'll figure it out we got a we got a week before we uh get into the swing of things here what's on the web Pete thill reporting akan is named veteran transfer Ben Finley is the starting quarterback he'll open up for the Zips versus Ohio State and then be pulled at some point in the first half I added that part poor kid hey you're the new starting quarterback congratulations Ben Finley bad news is you got a pissed off Buckeye team you are a prison shower scene yeah you got a bunch of guys that want to tap dance on you this game yeah good luck more Buckeye new Sam and this one this is an older story from last week but Mary K citt reporting Uh Kevin stefansky confirmed Denzel ward has a concussion his fifth concussion since 2018 man Denzel ward has had a lot of concussions man five dude is averaging like a concussion a year almost yeah they say once you get one the the next get get way easier to get right so like that's that's obviously and we've also been very much aware of learned in in the last decade or so how serious those types of injuries are let alone if you actually get concussed so uh I I would imagine he's gonna have to make a decision here soon because if he starts if he gets the you know the a half dozen that's that's not looking good yeah that's a lot man uh Adam Chef after what's on the web Cleveland is expected to leave Nick chub on the pup list means he will not be eligible to be active for the first four games of the season it's kind of why the Browns loaded up on some Veteran running backs in the off season yeah not entirely surprising after what we witnessed uh happened to his knee last year in week two I think it was yeah now we mentioned that Jaylen Gil uh Westerville own made the Chargers practice squad but did you hear this 15 players in Personnel trapped two hours in an elevator in Dallas before the preseason game Jaylen was one of them I talked to his dad his dad said no one freaked out Dan F's wife was also in the elevator uh Justin Herbert was in the elevator as well the technicians had to pull people out through the ceiling and then put them on another elevator I have been stuck in two elevators if there's an elevator within five floors I always walk I don't trust elevators I hate elevators that being in the being in a shaft like that you know what they say between the fifth and 13th so you're several floors up in a in a in a uh a shaft looking straight down to the dead I'm not sure that being trapped in an elevator wouldn't bother me the Heights and being in an open Elevator Shaft would probably terrify me for two hours with 300 lb men taking their shirts off because they're hot yikes I don't mean mean hot in an attractive term I mean hot because it's hot in the the temperature is hot large men breathing heavy hey but if large men with their shirt off is your thing DM me we can put OJ Sam was cremated back in April following his death was we're told his kids signed off on having their father's ashes turned into an assortment of jewelry if you are OJ's two youngest kids and you believe Daddy murdered mommy wouldn't you take the jewelry and sell it to the highest bidder I feel like they someone would buy that his ashes should have been been spread amongst like a batch of isotoners you know yes as that's probably what kept that's what kept him out of jail for for double murder or just put him spray him on top of Johnny Cochran's grave there you go uh Sports Business Journal Amazon is withdrawn at $15 million offer to infuse Diamond Sports Group with cash delaying but not derailing Diamond's bankruptcy Exit Plan despite this diamond has secured a deal with the NBA and NHL to broadcast for 22 teams including the Blue Jackets folks the baly sports app absolutely sucks dog [ __ ] it is awful I don't know what the Blue Jackets have done to improve it improve it or work with them I think the Blue Jackets just need a home and took the all right well we got to deal with these clowns so let's do it it makes blue jacket hockey unwatchable half the games aren't shown it's skipping out it is truly an awful app yeah it's it's terrible to navigate often buffering it's just it's terrible it's horrible you can't watch Blue Jacket games unless you have spectrum and Who the hell's gonna do that when YouTube TV's there uh CBJ Center Aaron ports line Kaden Lindstrom has been ruled out of the prospect's challenge in Buffalo next month he recovers from a back injury limited when training camp opens by the way training camp three days after that Prospect challenge you got to wonder will we see the Blue Jackets fifth overall pick Sam fifth overall pick or fourth fourth Fourth overall pick play it all this season back is a tricky thing I would yeah back back is bothersome I mean obviously guys like Boon Jenner has been dealing with that but it's also one of those things why Rush him up so I I wouldn't you know unless he's just lighting the world on fire I'd say he probably doesn't see the NHL this year I mean they've got a lot of young guys that they're going to probably try to get up but it seem it seems like wadell or Wadd until he wins uh has a plan and he's got a lot of the he's cut out some of the fat off this roster got a bunch of guys that were whether it be injury-prone or not producing out of here so he seems to have a plan in place uh and I I would be surprised if if lindstrom's up at some point this year yeah no I don't think he well I'm just talking about playing hockey I'm just saying will see him I think he'll play hockey um but yeah you're right back is somebody that's dealing with it right now I'm two and a half weeks in back is fickle no I think I I think the plan is probably Monahan playing your Topline center for the next couple years to see if he can get called up they're gonna have a problem when Monahan gets I guess I guess you play Lindstrom his first year on the fourth line and then after year three Monahan has two years left you either try to move him or move him down on the lines and do a little Switcheroo final story uh what's on the web the beer stbe will cease to operate the weekend of September 21st to make way for a new apartment complex on Ohio State campus you ever been to the Beer sto Sam I have been to the sto I've been to the one up north too which is now JT's but in lynworth but um yeah that's sad man it was there 60 years is that right yeah and there's one in um on Henderson right no uh Maybe by kind of by Riverside no I think you're thinking of the one that's in lynworth on 161 no no no oh that was I'm sorry hang on let me look I thought there's a beer St kind of by Sawmill on the way to Sawmill when Henderson intersects with Sawmill uh I don't think so you said Henderson intersects with saw I don't think so unless it's but on Henderson look up beer St I think there's one on Henderson isn't there I don't think so unless it's unless it was where the um was the old bar that burnt down um by like the the uh Lifetime Fitness and there's like a couple of markets back there but I'm not seeing anything on Henderson what did you Google the by the way gorgi quick CBJ season soon IO gorgi we appreciate you man hey we can do more than one thing at once right we can watch High State and be amped up for Saturdays but then also take in some CBJ games during the week yeah as long as they're not like last season I mean those are the E those are the easiest games to as long as high State still playing football those are the easiest football or hockey games to go to because nobody really turns their interest to the Blue Jackets until Ohio State football's done nor should they you haven't earned it you gotta earn it man you gotta earn the interest you know what I mean until you earn the interest you right and and same for Buckeye basketball kind of too right you got to earn that and then when you start to win then your eyeballs go to oh hey I got Buckeye football and Buckeye basketball or hey I got Buckeye basketball football and the Blue Jackets but they the Blue Jackets are nowhere near earning it so at least we're not stuck with just baseball on TV or WNBA anymore you know we got the goods are back I'm down with that you ready to uh tomorrow yeah wait hang on by the way I gotta I gotta take you down I didn't get any stany yesterday at the end of the show I know I forgot it's all right and you know here's why we didn't do it vus text me and said hey I got to go so I just figured all right I got the text he's got to go let's just wrap up the show that's the Tre he goes dude I got to go I got to call so I'm like all right let's just end the show right on but I tell you well of course I mean there's nothing better than being American so I mean this is the greatest feeling if you don't love
