00:05okay so as promised Mr. Rico Lamar Beard a man who refers to himself as the light of the world
00:12has an on three piece just to kind of cap this Bryce Underwood conversation and I think it's
00:18a good eye-opener for people if you don't care I'm not I can't ask you to care but if
00:25you're
00:25open-minded maybe you'll be surprised maybe you won't be so this is how many of the quarterbacks
00:31this is I'm going to give you uh the top 18 okay because after that it's a bunch but they're
00:37all
00:38under 2 million okay so 2 million is the cutoff point because they're cheap bargain base whoa so
00:44there's 18 quarterbacks in America making north of 2 million yes what are we doing okay now here I'm
00:50surprised and this is a part of our radio show no no let me help you with your surprise Mike
00:55because number one on the list is Darian Menza he's making like seven six and a half close to seven
01:03he makes million dollars not singular dollars six and a half million this year he will make more
01:10than the starting quarterback of six NFL teams to put things in perspective and and I think there's
01:18something really wrong with that but we will move forward carry on so yeah uh at number two is
01:24Dante Moore Oregon he's a little over five million dollars a year Trinidad Chambliss at he's three
01:31Ole Miss he's a little over five million a year as well what a come up for a kid from
01:36Ferris State
01:37that is wild that's why he petitioned for that extra year but I'm right he had five million reasons
01:43too because he wasn't getting drafted no at four Sam Levitt LSU four and a half million along with
01:49Josh Hoover at Indiana at four and a half million okay I'm just telling you I think both those guys
01:55are grossly overpaid Levitt he's an idea I don't you know I again I think he's gritty he's fiery
02:05four and a half million not I mean look if you if you want ready made it's slim pickings no
02:11you
02:12could have told me hey if Michigan brings in Sam Levitt do they have a better chance of making the
02:16playoff yeah probably experience wise right but man four and a half million dollars four and a half
02:21million and uh at number six he makes enough money to maybe take his teammates out to dinner so
02:26they'd like him again it'd be Desmond Williams DeMond DeMond I'm sorry DeMond Williams so yes
02:32the story behind that guy is what Rico's referring to he pimped his own teammates tried to leave in
02:37the middle of the night after getting a raise at UW left to take more money and then recoiled and
02:43had
02:43to come on home because he got sued by the school right so guys I was just messing around things
02:50are
02:50going great at seven is uh Drew Mestermaker Oklahoma State stud three and a half million you could pay
02:57him seven I love this kid he was awesome at North Texas this is also why I think Fitzgerald is
03:04far from
03:04a slam dunk at state hey what players did he bring from his previous stop oh wait he didn't have
03:11one
03:12here's a fun stat with Okie State they lost 89 percent of their production so 11 percent returning
03:20production they hire Eric Morris they're the most experienced team in America he brought 19 players
03:27over from North Texas including Mestermaker the running back Caleb Stewart they got a wide
03:32receiver Wyatt they're going the Indiana route but Mestermaker is awesome yeah they went the
03:37Indiana route I'm gonna bring my entire team they may have been a lower division of school but this
03:42will work no because it's boats and hoes they spent money that they wouldn't give Gundy but I love that
03:46quarterback at eight is another quarterback that you do love Mike is uh JKS from Cal three million
03:52really incredible considering didn't have a lot of talent around him true freshman and there were
03:58games including and I forgive me if I've got the opponent wrong they won a road game at Louisville
04:04who was ranked at the time and he was slinging it 40 times they they weren't they weren't doing the
04:10McCarthy plan and letting him throw at 14 JKS was out there and they're like kid it's on you they
04:16won an overtime game they did in the year two where he threw it like 45 times he's really good
04:21so he's
04:21making north of three million along with Mason Heinsov uh Pitt oh north of three million
04:27Marcel Reed Texas A&M north of three million he's a top 10 quarterbacks hey by the way you want
04:34to
04:34see a team that won't make the playoff because they play in the SEC pull up A&M schedule their
04:40last
04:40two weeks I think they finish with Texas A&M it's just kind of funny because it's flipped because the
04:48Big Ten used to say it's a gauntlet to go through the Big Ten you guys are just top heavy
04:52now it's
04:53flipped it has flipped completely here's their last three SEC games Tennessee at Oklahoma Texas
05:01I'm sorry and then they have two weeks before that Alabama you could be undefeated headed into the
05:07last month of the season and end up in the Gator Bowl Alabama though I'm just not the same I'm
05:13worried
05:13about your boy I know he just signed an extension but I'm I'm worried about that he's gonna get
05:17maybe the next quarterback will buy him out be like Bill Curry when they threw a brick through his
05:21window be careful down there those people are not right at number 11 is Bryce Underwood and CJ
05:27Carr at around uh for around three million a piece if I'm CJ Carr I'm offended CJ Carr is pretty
05:36outstanding Bryce Underwood is not he is he just negotiated at the wrong time that's fair uh Byron Brown
05:43Auburn three million I don't like this kid I I hate him well speaking of Byron Brown is the most
05:50overrated David I watched UCF so many times and I understand it's Alex Golish and I understand it's
05:57his QB and they run fast tempo and they run a play every 20 seconds David I every time I
06:05watch this
06:05kid USF's down 28 nothing he's fumbled and thrown a pick six before I sit down on the couch I
06:12just don't
06:12understand Byron Brown it's also a Jim Costa player so I have a real problem with it well it's funny
06:19before you said it because that told Corbin I said yeah underceptions fumbles and then you said I just
06:23don't like it yep also a little under three million I give you Kevin Jennings SMU you can have him
06:31I said
06:32I know I know I just don't like him there's two guys I haven't said yet and they're only coming
06:39in at a
06:40paltry two and a half million dollars a piece Arch Manning and Julian Sands each two and a half million
06:48that's pretty remarkable considering what they could get maybe there's hope for the sport yet so maybe
06:55they just like where they are I mean Arch doesn't need the money who are we kidding
06:59I've heard he has some famous uncles but saying you negotiated at the wrong time so just renegotiate
07:07they're all just hookers there ain't no hooker union all the money went to the wide receiver so
07:12do you think Jeremiah Smith is making like eight yeah you think so you want to know why because there
07:17was no question of whether he was going to leave and go any place Ohio State walked in there and
07:22said
07:22son put the phone down how much they're writing down there were reports and I'm hesitant to believe
07:27him like 10 million bucks I think Ohio State realized that we got a meal ticket we're going
07:32to keep this thing going he is one of one Rico Eric he really is so is Marvin Harrison Jr.
07:37no I mean at the college level for what they're trying to do I'm not talking about becoming a pro
07:42and
07:42then having footballs bounce off your helmet I'm talking in the here and now yeah he is irreplaceable
07:47there ain't nothing like they took care of him so yes I think he got paid well because he
07:51not a squabbling no flirting no nothing man you want to get even a top 20 QB you gotta be
07:59spending
07:59worth two and a half million dollars on it that is something we are living in some wild times
08:04mind you the NFL minimum is about 850 grand and Mensa makes more than the Minnesota Giants
08:11Falcons Dolphins Jets and Saints starting QB to quote a wise man 97 one
08:20out there
08:20you
08:20you
08:20you
08:20you
08:20you
08:20you
