Chase Thomas podcast. The Chase Thomas podcast.

My nephew needs me to record. See, I hate, I already hate it. I hate it.

All right. Hello. And welcome back to

another episode of the Chase Thomas podcast from Still, the A for mention Chase Thomas coming to you live from Knoxville, Tennessee, everything school, HQ.

Joining me, one half of more important issues fresh off an interview with VFL Jerome Carvin that you can go check out on their YouTube channel. It's Caleb, Mitchel, of more important issues. Caleb, good evening, sir. How are you? Good evening. I'm doing good. I do want to mention, too, on that Jerome Carvin. Had a great time. Great interview with him. It's always so jarring to get football players that are that big, that when you watch them play that mean, and they're just the nicest human beings. Yeah. Like skill position guys, you get it. Like, you know, they're playing a different sport almost. Then you get the guys in the trenches and you're like, you think of John Henderson, punching themselves in the head before a game. Like, they have to just be psychos all the time. And no, they're almost always the nicest dudes ever. And it's just, you know, it's a, it's a, remind you that they're not always just beating their, their heads against walls. Yeah, it's not like, but I don't want that my receivers in corners. I want my receivers in corners to be pretty moody and be like AJ Brown, just

mercurial, where you just don't know week to week, if they're in a good mood, bad mood, are they going to be, yeah, like I just, that's what I want. I want you to be like O'Dell Beckham Jr. I want you be like, uh, uh, peak, probably Randy Moss. Like, you just, you don't know what you're going to get week to week. I really enjoy that. I think those are the best.

That's why I'm so excited about Tristan Keys. I feel like he's got a lot of personality. I'm all in on Tristan Keys. Like I just could not buy more stock. I think it's a big part of being elite receiver and elite cornerback. I think you've got to have that. Hmm? Blue Carter? Oh yeah, I'm a boo guy Like you want to sweat that. Blue Carter? Oh, yeah. I'm a boo guy. You want to sweat that your best, your best skill player is going to transfer every offseason. 100%. What about that? You see that screen that blue, the boot Carter blew up on, uh, on set. Oh, yeah. It was great stuff. That was awesome. How's that not a catch? What's a football move?

Yeah, we don't need to get in a case. Okay, I didn't think it was a catch. Really? Well, I mean... I didn't think it was... I didn't think it was. I didn't think it was, yeah. But I didn't feel with either angle that it was a catch. I thought it was a catch tag

And he took two steps

Next play they took it back

For a touchdown anyway

Yeah true with either angle that it was a catch. I thought it was a catch. He took two steps. Next play, they took it back for a touchdown anyway. Yeah, true. I just, I want my boy to get tackle for a loss. It didn't feel like a catch because he got his... Yeah. Rocked. I mean... Yeah, boo. Yeah, well, in that voice you hear there is Alex Sargis of the UTK Daily Beacon as well.

Yeah, I, I don't know.

The boo stuff is just, I hope they use the next two weeks, they being the Tennessee football coaching staff to decide are we two feet in with Booth Carter or do we

need to eject and just move on altogether? Because the one foot in, one foot out nonsense that we're

still doing, because everyone has cited Boog Carter not returning the first two punts in this game

as, oh, well, he's muffed two in the last two weeks. He lost one the week before, and then he muffed one.

What people are just overlooking is that Boo Carter for two-thirds of last year,

returned punts for Tennessee.

But Carter has returned over 40 punts at this point in his Tennessee career.

He's lost one total.

Braylon Staley is not someone who has returned a bunch. Like, you put him in a terrible spot. I feel like that messed up his whole afternoon because it took until that final play that he had in a key moment where he fought through multiple tacklers to get that first down, which is big for Tennessee. But I just, you can't do that. Like the, the Bukar stuff,
