00:00All right, I deeply apologize.
00:02We got way off the rails there for about six minutes.
00:04Sorry.
00:05And I knew we were in trouble once I made the Vrabel joke.
00:08But all right, Rico can provide you your college football update
00:11because I genuinely can't make sense of any of it.
00:14And again, here's a PSA for all you pansies.
00:19I'm not mad at Michigan.
00:21I don't care.
00:22I genuinely cannot understand what the hell is going on.
00:29Brother, this is one of those.
00:31Go ahead and take the victory lap, Mike, because you were right.
00:36This is boats and hoes.
00:38This is all it is.
00:39I can't.
00:40I am the captain of the Titanic right now,
00:42and I think it's just a little piece of ice floating in the water,
00:46and I am steering the ship.
00:47I should probably turn, but no, I'm arrogant.
00:51So, Mike, this is for you.
00:53Okay.
00:54Michigan adds two transfers midseason after court wins for extra eligibility.
01:00Former Miami tight end Alex Bowman,
01:04who had 81 catches for 14 touchdowns in his career,
01:08and ex-Boise State cornerback Jeremiah Irby,
01:11who racked up 156 tackles, seven interceptions, and a forced fumble,
01:15both from the high school class of 2022 received preliminary injunctions
01:20from Washtenaw County Circuit Court Judge on Tuesday.
01:25They're enrolled at Michigan.
01:28They're committing to the three and two Wolverines ahead of the Penn State matchup.
01:33The moves under first-year head coach Kyle Winningham
01:36brings immediate depth to tight end and secondary and mixed fan reactions.
01:41So, they're eligible to play this Saturday for homecoming from Michigan.
01:46Now, apparently enrolled and have been waiting.
01:52The judge in Washtenaw County said,
01:55you guys will qualify for the five for five.
01:59The tight end did not go to any NFL training camps.
02:04So, he's just been hanging around.
02:06He's been waiting for this moment.
02:08My time to shine.
02:09He's going to run out down the tunnel, and he is now a Wolverine.
02:14In the middle of the season.
02:15In the middle of the season.
02:18I don't know what to say.
02:20I don't either.
02:20I mean, I'm not mad.
02:22I know that.
02:22I don't care enough to be mad.
02:24Now, the question that you asked...
02:26Can MSU get some new players?
02:27We got any bums holding on to...
02:29No, they would have...
02:30Hanging on on campus.
02:31They would have had to enroll early.
02:33No, they didn't.
02:34Just get a TRO from a DeWitt judge.
02:36No.
02:37The question is...
02:39Can we go get Kenneth Walker for, like, one day?
02:43Were you practicing with the team?
02:44Because you're just kind of showing up mid-season.
02:47Well, that means they can't play, then.
02:49Do you know the play?
02:50Like, they're eligible.
02:52Now, I don't know if Whittingham is going to actually use them or not.
02:55Yeah, and I think that's a great point you're bringing up.
02:58Like, I can't get angry about it.
03:00It's not like they're going to run out of the tunnel and start.
03:02I'd imagine within three weeks, they could get up to speed, practice, get in football shape, and be depth, maybe?
03:13And then, I guess...
03:14Paul, you like Bowman?
03:17Wasn't Bowman your flex tight end at Miami?
03:20He was like a...
03:21Yes.
03:22He wasn't tight to the formation.
03:23Wasn't he more of like an Isaiah Likely?
03:25Yeah, essentially, yes.
03:26He was okay.
03:27I mean, it's weird that they could just pick him up out of nowhere and be like, hey, like, he's
03:32off the line in the Hurricanes practice squad somehow.
03:35Right.
03:37It's just weird because, yeah, and then I guess they were banking that Michigan was going to be good because
03:44I got to think, if I had one more year of eligibility, I got to make it count.
03:49They're about to come and play for a team that ain't going to the playoffs, so I guess you're just
03:53trying to improve your stock.
03:55Here's my question.
03:56But newsflash, I know Michigan used to throw to the tight end.
03:59They don't do that anymore.
04:01We heard more about the tight end room out of leaked text messages than actually seeing what happens on the
04:06field.
04:06That's all Whittingham wants to do.
04:08I mean, he was the L.A. Rams in college.
04:1213 personnel.
04:13I mean, that's the home of Dalton Kincaid, amongst others.
04:16Like, that's...
04:17You got a quarterback problem.
04:19What do you want me to tell you?
04:20It requires throwing in the middle of the field and being accurate and on time.
04:23Uh-oh.
04:24So, here's my question.
04:27This is the only thing I can come up with when you give me these updates.
04:31How will history look back on this five-year period of college football?
04:37And I'm not talking space aliens and time capsules.
04:40I'm talking about 10 years from now.
04:42How will we all, as a society, look back at this nonsense?
04:47I can't even take it serious.
04:49I think...
04:50Take a step back.
04:51Okay.
04:52Juicy pants.
04:53I think you're going to look at this the same way you now look at the BCS poll.
04:59We let computers decide.
05:01But I was good with that.
05:02No, no.
05:02But not everybody at the time.
05:04People were like, I can't believe we're letting computers decide this.
05:07But I'd argue the computers did a better job than people.
05:10And it was one versus two.
05:11I love the BCS era.
05:13Right, but it was the people who programmed the computers so they could put their biases in there.
05:17Oh, jeez.
05:18Now, I remember there was a...
05:19Mike, you liked it.
05:20It was a lot of fallback for the BCS.
05:22And then they got rid of it.
05:24Okay, rank out the eras of college football playoff determination.
05:27This still comes in last.
05:29Everybody thought they'd like a playoff until they realized, wait, we have 12?
05:34Cutscene.
05:34We're about to go to 24.
05:35The 14 playoff was bliss.
05:38BCS would be number two.
05:40Anything after that is crap.
05:41And now, we're really stepping in it.
05:45The AP versus the coaches poll.
05:47That's garbage.
05:49Scott Frost.
05:50I'm serious.
05:51When you look back at this, and you had to teach a class and explain to kids 10 years from
05:55now.
05:56Well, you see, it was boats and hoes, Bobby.
06:01It depends on what happens.
06:03Now, if all of a sudden, this new legislation, let's just say, Mike, through a minor miracle,
06:08it gets approved, and it's bipartisan, and everybody loves to shake hands.
06:13Bipartisan?
06:14I'm just saying.
06:16No, nobody shoots it down.
06:18It gets approved.
06:20He's funny.
06:21What did I just say?
06:23Can you pretend with me?
06:24Did you not pretend when you were a kid?
06:26They could try to get a bill.
06:28Did a big G knock you through too many doors?
06:30You can't even pretend.
06:30They could get a bill passed that says, pizza's good and boobs are fun.
06:34It wouldn't be bipartisan.
06:35Let's just say, on there, they also said, everybody gets a free puppy and kitten.
06:41Okay?
06:41Somebody would yell, what about goldfish?
06:44You don't like hamsters.
06:46Okay.
06:48And it reverts back to the way it used to be, then yes, at that point, it becomes almost
06:56like the USFL, where you look at this and say, man, there was a time period where this
07:01was football.
07:03Now, if this is just the way it is.
07:05It can't be.
07:06It can't be.
07:06But I think that if it reverts somewhat, or it's a salary cap, yeah, think of it like
07:13the USFL.
07:14It was kind of fun.
07:15It wasn't real football, but it was there.
07:19Or like the XFL.
07:20Once again, kind of football, not real football, but it was a short-lived and kind of fun.
07:26I truly think people will look back, starting with the COVID year, and they will just invalidate
07:31every national title.
07:32From Indiana winning it, that's going to be like Georgia Tech and Colorado splitting
07:36the national title in 1990.
07:38No one's going to even validate it.
07:41They're going to look at this and go, wait, so there were no rules on anything?
07:44You would court judges?
07:47Wait, you were bringing players back from the NFL?
07:50Wait, players were in college for six and seven years?
07:53I think the ultimate, just make a mockery out of this, what you need, and this would
07:59be so funny.
08:00Imagine if you had a Trevor Lawrence now, who actually won a title for three different
08:06teams, and then went to the pros.
08:08That would make the ultimate mockery of this.
08:12A Trevor Lawrence, I went into my freshman year here, I transferred to that school, went
08:17there, last school I go here, and I went there.
08:19I mean, it's happening in real time, it just hasn't been a quarterback per se, but it is
08:23happening.
08:23I mean, you can't even keep up with it.
08:25But the judges, the TROs, the injunctions, I mean, look what's going on at LSU, the SEC
08:30is suing LSU for lack of institutional control because Will Wade is trying to hire 35-year-olds
08:37from Serbia to play center.
08:39I mean, it's lunatic behavior, all of this.
08:45Great sport, man.
08:46Uplifting.
08:47Great stuff.
08:48What about Herbie's dog?
08:49248-539-97.
08:51Well, he said he can't have any comment on this because he's calling.
08:54He's calling the game.
08:57Text here says, college football is not real.
09:00Back to the airport rankings.
09:01Amen.
09:02Let's talk about Denver.
09:03What's that statue all about?
09:05Oh, wow.
09:06You want to go into deep conspiracy.
09:08Okay, Mike, you know what?
09:09Oh, we don't have time.
09:11Honestly, this is what being a state fan does to you.
09:13You'd rather talk about airports than college football.
09:16How did state...
09:17You know what?
09:18Just keep going.
09:19Ha ha ha.
09:19The United Nationser.
09:19Our streets is blind.
09:19Well, I look forward on this.
09:19There you go.
09:19There you are.
09:19There you go.
