Transcript
00:03coming up today at 11 30 everybody's been talking about what buster only said about the tigers
00:08we got the actual sound we'll play for you today at 11 30 and he gives kind of an outline
00:13of teams
00:14that he really doesn't think will be in the scoobal market and teams that will be in the
00:18scoobal market kind of sets a tone for what he thinks the tigers might get here with one of
00:22baseball's foremost authorities gator has to say about terrick scoobal coming up today at 11 30
00:27in the meantime dan campbell speaking right now head coach of the detroit lions let's start with
00:33the injury updates uh colton pouncey and a bunch of beat writers are down there i'm going to read this
00:38from colton pouncey's twitter feed dan came on his expectations for kirby joseph knee this season
00:46i don't know i honestly don't know oh boy then he adds colton pouncey tweets says they've done
00:56everything they can and that they won't know until they get into the thick of training camp
01:04that's a weird response and and i believe in because i'm going to guess here that it just
01:13hasn't responded the way that they've hoped it would respond but they're not ruling them out
01:17i think it's what it is is remember those reports came out months ago that this was an injury the
01:25first reports were there was an injury that that he's gonna have to live with yeah it's one of
01:30these things it's a pain tolerance thing um until unless it becomes a debilitating thing where he
01:36literally just can't get out there but if it's a pain tolerance thing you can only take so much
01:41it's gonna be to be monitored throughout the year does that mean you you you practice you're limited
01:46in practice all week but you're good enough to play in the game how many snaps you're able to give
01:51your team it's so bad it's just awful because kirby joseph is a really he's a really good young
01:55player a playmaker really exciting player he was all pro and you hope he can he can go full go
02:02here
02:02but if he can't you know this is why going into the draft i was looking at safety and you
02:08and i both
02:08thought this is a deep draft with safety she can go deep into rounds and still find somebody and the
02:13lions chose not to they they chose not to go that route in in uh in in the draft now
02:20in free agency
02:21they did yeah they went out and they got um uh chuck clark who's an interesting player they got uh
02:30um christian isian who could play there yeah he's nickelback i guess they play anywhere they can play
02:36him at safety so i mean we'll see how it shakes out the problem is it's not just kirby joseph
02:41because
02:41you're also dealing with brian branch and not knowing when he's going to come back but you know
02:47i you get to a point with a player that in your own mind you go i'm just not counting
02:51on him anymore
02:52and this is like i kind of feel like i'm getting there with kirby joseph like if they get if
02:57he comes
02:58back it'd be awesome yeah but i'm almost to the point where they need to start looking for a full
03:04-time
03:04replacement now that's probably not going to happen before this season they're probably going to have to
03:08try and make it through this season with some some of these veterans uh that are back there that they
03:14hope you know thomas harper did some good things for them in the past and um so we'll see but
03:19can you
03:21get away in the nfl without having elite safeties which is what they had they had an elite pair of
03:29young safeties and they were both struck down by injuries and it sucks i mean i think you can i
03:37mean
03:37it's obviously you'd love to have great players at every position but honestly if i had to choose
03:42in the secondary it would be the safeties because they're kind of like safety nets you know it's
03:46right in their name just like don't let the big play happen over the top right yep the best ones
03:51make plays intercept the ball change you know game changing momentums plays type like that the ones
03:56that can get up to the um to the line of scrimmage like brian branch stop the run those are
03:59like
03:59the elite pro bowl type safeties now if you don't have those then you just need guys to just help
04:05erase mistakes that do like don't let them don't let big plays turn into touchdowns you know like
04:1015 20 yard plays that's where you you have to be there you have to make the tackle um this
04:16sucks
04:17because i think that's such a raw and honest answer by dan campbell is i don't know i honestly don't
04:22know
04:23this he hasn't played since week six of last year remember it was a week-to-week thing and then
04:27it
04:27became uh yep then they shut him down and then it's like and he hasn't done any football activities
04:33since then yeah this is this update doesn't sound particularly promising no but but like i said
04:41i mean maybe you can get away with it it's not ideal but they definitely need some nfl type players
04:47back
04:47there they can't just fill in any with anybody uh other injury news and this ain't great either
04:52dan campbell said the rookie wide receiver kendrick law the little wide receiver out of
04:57kentucky tours acl and practice on tuesday oh no that sucks yeah i don't know what he was going
05:06to be on this team other than uh vying for third receiver reps but could have been a special teams
05:10guy returning kicks um and they they went out and got greg dorch for that but you know what this
05:17does
05:18well it's just you know what this just means we reintroduced tom kennedy well right okay i mean
05:25tom kennedy just is always there i don't know what law would have done for the lions this year
05:30but i just feel bad for the person sure i mean you get drafted you're all excited you're going through
05:35your first you know experiences as a professional player you've got your contract done you're going
05:40to otas you're not in pads and you tear your acl and you're not in pads there's no contact and
05:48i feel i feel terrible for him yeah that sucks uh here's another one from colton pouncey and i love
05:55this this is kind of spicy dan campbell dan campbell's reaction to the rams trading for miles garrett
06:04yeah good for them they've won it now right
06:14uh so yeah well there goes the season basically that's what he's saying oh yeah we thought we had
06:19a chance yeah i guess we'll show up anyway but like the the tenor that dan campbell has taken this
06:28offseason has been real minimal from the schedule release to canceling these rookie mini
06:38camp saying they're just basically a waste of time they just create a bunch of hype and they don't
06:41do any good he's really i i mean you talk about shutting down hype he is shutting down hype i
06:53feel
06:54like he's bunkering in right now dan campbell yeah when he says something like that being sarcastic like
07:01that it tells me that they're listening to it all and they're they're amassing a dossier of doubt
07:09for this team that they're going to unleash on the team at some point say look this is what here
07:14just
07:14so you guys know here's what people are saying and just to as you know that i love to cultivate
07:19that
07:20chip on the shoulder a bolton board material whatever it is that's uh it's going right there but
07:26that's not exactly a great news day for the lions when you hear that it really is a rookie wide
07:31receiver they drafted in the fifth round with their second pick in the fifth round that he's
07:35out with an acl that sucks for him um that we don't have good news on kirby joseph we don't
07:41have
07:41any news on kirby joseph but it feels like if there's no news it's it's it's bad news because it's
07:46just
07:46further going that we don't know you're operating in a realm of of complete let's face it unknown with
07:53almost every injury you kind of know something right and to be coming out and saying we don't
07:57know is that i mean there's i don't know how to interpret that any other way than that sucks it
08:02doesn't sound like it's trending in a great direction no but the door isn't slammed no and you know i
08:09go
08:09back and look at the draft and think i really wanted them to take a safety at some point thought
08:14for sure
08:14they would and they didn't and you look in that fourth and fifth round area and there were some some
08:20decent players taken there we'll see how they progress as professionals but guys like kamari
08:25ramsey zaki wheatley lorenzo styles jr those are three guys in the uh in in the big 10 that we
08:33saw
08:33play there are some others jalan kilgore from south carolina was a name that we had brought up before
08:39um so when we talked about dude from arizona his name escapes me a lot uh leading up to the
08:45draft
08:45dalton johnson no there was a or that went high in the draft genesis smith no the the guy went
08:52early oh sorry trading stooks yes there we go completely blanking on his name and they have
08:58three safeties i know right we're taking into the nfl draft two four eight five three nine ninety seven
09:03ninety seven okay so one of the big stories today buster only reporting on school bowl got everybody
09:08talking because you've heard it in the updates we'll play it for you but he had a lot more to
