Joining us right now, Bobby Carpenter, who played linebacker at Ohio State in the early 2000s

0:07.5

was with the Cowboys. Remember some of those matchups with the skins when he was drafted in the

0:13.4

first round by Dallas, played there for four years. Bounced around in the NFL for a while,

0:18.1

Bobby's been doing a great job in media. He is co-host of

0:21.9

the morning juice in the mornings on 97-1 the fan in Columbus, and he's done a lot of work on

0:30.8

Sirius XM covering college football. We've had Bobby on the show before, and we are happy to

0:37.1

have him back. So if I told

0:39.3

you your GM of an expansion team, and you had to pick one of the following four Ohio State

0:46.2

1:23.5

1:29.5

solid of a human being. And so I would go with him to kind of start that defense off, start

1:35.4

that team off and start building around. I don't know if you do this a lot, but, you know, as fans,

1:40.3

we do it a lot, especially this time of year. Do you have a comp for him?

1:47.5

It's tough because you look around and the guy, I was just looking at some of his stuff

1:51.3

again today. I've known Sonny, full disclosure with that. I mean, he grew up in the town
