Transcript
00:00baldy huh yeah baldy came out with a little rumor did you see this flat no what's the room brian
00:05balding there was a rumor circulating yesterday that the steelers apparently according to baldy
00:11have interest in mario cristobal as their next head coach and i was like oh he i don't want that
00:20to be honest with you if you think about all the coaches out there who most fits
00:27what that organization has hired it's a valid point i don't think mario would leave here though
00:36i think it feels like he's not he's going to do a hardball like he doesn't leave till he finishes
00:40the job but it's but but it's when you think about it think of chuck knoll bill cower and then uh mike
00:48tomlin and now if i said mario cristobal they all fit yeah they're all very similar in how they go
00:56about business this is why it's weird about the steelers because if they hired flores or mccarthy
01:02that'd be the first time they're hiring a retread head coach true everybody else has been there
01:07all their head coaches in there well he's he's never been a uh nfl head coach who mario yeah right
01:14right i'm saying if they hire mccarthy or flores if this oh it'll be the first time right so the guys
01:19that they would hire that would be like coming from college would fit would be like a marcus
01:23freeman or mario cristobal right those are the type of coaches that would probably fit their right
01:28but but it's well known that mario fits what like just how he does things how it fits exactly how
01:38they've done stuff over the years um i mean he's never gotten the crack of the i i do think that he
01:45wants to like i think he wants to finish the job but that is a huge i mean you talk about organization
01:50that is one of those where you'd be you'd be swayed right look at there you'd be one thing
01:54about pittsburgh is if you got a job there you know you'd be securing your job for a long time
02:00right because they don't they hire that guy and then just let him do his thing
02:03so i i don't know but but but i also feel like mario's at the point too it's a big decision because
02:12it's like you're at the point i think everybody's like hey he's our guy forever you know you think
02:18college coaches and and here's what i would say at some point in time all of the coaches
02:25it's not that they get tired of the coaching the process the recruiting or whatever but when you've
02:33added that that other part of it with the nil and and not necessarily developing players but you got
02:44to bring players in who can play right away otherwise they're going to go somewhere else
02:48you think that becomes the exhausting part of college athletics instead of just the whole process
02:54of coaching and recruiting and stuff like that i would think that but he seems to love that part
03:00more than a lot of coaches do like i don't think lane kiffin loves that i don't think that there's a
03:04lot of coaches that do like to be boots on the ground because he even seems to dig when he gets
03:07to go get guys he wanted to recruit and then he gets another crack at them right like that
03:11happened with cj daniels like he was excited so i don't think he's at that point i think that he
03:17likes uh i think that he loves the grind of of college football and i do think that there's there's
03:25an element to him that he is going to uh he's going to try and you know get this thing all the way
03:30look the canes are going to pay him oodles of money you know it's not in at this point it's not even
03:35about money it's just about like what you want to do to say mario's agent trying to get an extension
03:46now i don't think he even needs an extension they're they're going to take care of mario
03:50everybody needs an extension no but they're going to take there and and a lot of times when you get
03:56to the playoff and stuff like that you have a built-in extension or as far as not even an extension
04:03but uh increase or or bonuses and stuff like that so um i don't know man like would you rather be
04:11mario and get a bonus and extension for make to the final game or being the duke coach who won the
04:18acc and got an extension for being seven and five and got his quarterback taken away right or they
04:24suing well good luck i don't understand pringle's back by the way pringle is uh he is taking his
04:32he did the old uh portal hokey pokey by the way i just like to point out reading all these comments
04:37on the twitch and youtube right yeah it's crazy what one year does right with people not wanting
04:42him to leave oh yeah yeah wanting him to leave that happens all the time they've been trying to fire
04:46uh uh ryan day for five years yeah nobody's remembering the yeah the georgia tech the georgia
04:53tech game from a couple years ago they're not taking the not taking the knee when it fixes that
04:58you know that's all forgotten now winning fixes that these are the same people that wanted him
05:02that were ripping him by the way right i just wanted i just wanted to point that out to you
05:07look i think it's i i think of all the guys who probably could go to the pros i think he likes the
05:13pro style he likes the toughness and trenches like i think he's got a lot of philosophies where
05:17people will snoop around him you know i think he's obviously got the respect of because he has all
05:22the respect of all those legends too who played here i do i just think they but i think that he
05:27wants to finish the job i do think that yes if look if there comes a day where the canes when he
05:31gets them over the top like like jim harbaugh did with michigan then i think bet all bets are off like
05:37you've you've kind of done what you set out here to do now he may not he may be a lifer which i could
05:41see as well but i don't i don't think it's a threat until he finishes it you know
05:46i uh yeah i i just think that when you say mario and you say the university of miami it just
05:58goes together now especially now that he's having success for sure and i think with all of these jobs
06:05once you get into a groove of the nil the recruiting the portal transfer when when you get
06:16into a groove of all this is not as stressful as it could be for a coach say like nick saban that
06:24it was all of a sudden how he had to do things changed right so he's familiar with the whole
06:32process and has been um and i think this part of it is you know right in his wheelhouse now
06:41so i don't know if he would leave because of all the the way all the other guys have
06:47stun steve says this is why i was always mario over lane because kiffin would dip after the first
06:53opportunity of the pros oh yeah he's a new job floozy that's for sure you you you should know
06:59about being a floozy if i was a coach i could see me doing it too oh yeah you'd be out
07:04you unless i had the goosey's job you know i could see me sticking out at miami right you know
07:12i just think this is
07:15all bets are off if he wins a national championship i don't think anybody would be
07:22be upset or mad um that he chose to go that way but i could see him winning a national championship
07:29and still not wanting to go i agree no i can't too but i think what how much think about this
07:33with what college coaches are getting paid now you got some guys making nine ten million dollars
07:42right
07:43what's the challenge of going to the nfl you're actually going to take a pay cut
07:51you got less control less control so like yeah and i agree it's and and college
08:01gives you a soft landing if things go a little sideways the nfl does not the other thing with
08:09college that's that's becoming it's becoming so pro too like it it does feel like you can go and
08:14make your move so like if you thought to yourself oh man we're losing carson back what do i do it's
08:19like nah i can go find my next quarterback we have the ability to go do that at some point does that
08:23catch up to you i'm always curious about that i don't know like they're putting quarterback
08:27they're going to get another quarterback they're going to get another quarterback if it doesn't
08:31work out are you going to be in a lot of trouble because you didn't develop your own quarterback
08:36there probably will come a year where that does happen but today's not that day then that means
08:41whatever highly recruited high school quarterback is pretty much going to probably have to play
08:49immediately not really not necessarily no i know this man arch is different arch man arch's families
08:57there's a couple of guys though there's a couple of guys that have sat for a year or two they might
09:04you're not sitting for two years if you're if you're getting nil money and if you're getting here
09:09here's the kicker if you're getting nil money and you can't come out until your third year
09:15it's okay but we're also seeing the thing now where like most of these teams are getting their
09:22quarterbacks like they're bringing them in oh because they're paying whatever they're just
09:26experience right you know you bring them right in for the for the situation like that that that
09:30feels like a very novel old concept to be like oh we're gonna drive we're gonna recruit our guy from
09:36the cradle you know because like but i think if you here if you do that and give them nil money
09:43right and and then say he's we're gonna develop you're gonna play your second maybe third year
09:52he can't leave before the third year so that nil money keeps him in place you understand what i'm
10:00saying if they did it right but they don't have any rules right now let's just kind of willy what
10:04do you mean you can go whenever now no i understand that but why here no what i'm saying is you
10:09you can't declare for the nfl draft until your third year so i'm saying if you bring in a guy
10:16give him nil money there is no incentive to leave because where are you gonna go go somewhere else
10:23and play your second year right so there's no so the way the nil is if you bring a young quarterback in
10:33maybe he plays his second year maybe he doesn't play till his third year but he's being
10:39rewarded for where he what they think of him and there's really no incentive to go somewhere else
10:47like the only reason why the duke quarterback is leaving duke is because that money yeah right
10:55they're gonna give him some money to come and play at not duke but miami sorry they're like they
11:00haven't done it in basketball for their entire existence but you can't be upset now what i'm not
11:05upset no but you're like yeah because my e wants to leave duke to go to miami that's right if a miami
11:10player wants to leave miami to go to another team you can't be upset with that other team i'm not
11:14upset okay i'm not i saw when i saw pringle was gonna maybe leave i'm like yeah that sucks but i
11:19kind of get like if fletcher's coming back you're looking at it you're like no i want to go be the
11:22starting dude uh you know as in my second year i get it i i i get it the canes are gonna get
11:28burned on it from time to time it's gonna happen but i think if you accept that that's the game
11:33that's the game i see and i and i think that depending on see once you get to the the third
11:38and fourth years then there's gonna be a lot of movement because you're just trying to position
11:45yourself for whatever money whatever but i think the first and second years there's less of that
11:52simply because like if you got a good nil deal you can't leave and go to the pros anyway yeah
11:59no i get you so it's all in how you do it when you recruit these kids to to be honest with them
12:07and let them know it's not gonna be a situation like what happened in michigan michigan that kid
12:11had to play right away and they depended on him as as a freshman he's already been through a lot of
12:17chaos right that's what i'm saying see that thing that came out with the uh the player saying that
12:23players were blackmailing uh sharon nasty work that's crazy dude dude i'm gonna tell you like this
12:31at no point in time and and here's the funny thing about he was in court yesterday by the way
12:37he was in court yesterday for his appearance under no at no point in time i i don't think i've ever
12:44even if i didn't like a coach i don't think i would ever go to that level right right that's just
12:52that's nasty work that's nasty that you are a player well one of the receivers was upset because
12:59he wasn't getting playing time and he claims that everybody knows that i was the best player in
13:04practice but other players were threatened or threatening the coach and so they're playing over
13:08him and this is this is the society we live in it can't be it can't be like if you lose if you don't
13:15get a spot if you don't get a job it can't be because you're not good enough for the other guys
13:20better it always has to be some underlying reason as to why right because you know a fan base that
13:27ever said that other team was much better than us they always say the ref screwed us i don't care
13:32what the situation is the ref screwed us buffalo buffalo still complaining about the one catch that
13:39wasn't a catch or maybe a catch and they just overlooked the fact that their quarterback was
13:44willy-nilly with the football
