0:00.0	Hey, hey, where you been? But God talk is about to begin. Hey, hey, hey, come on in.
0:30.0	What about the book I talked to you? It means Nathan Baird coming off of Ohio State season opening
0:38.3	went over Indiana 23 to three. Nathan, first and foremost, this is Monday. Well, I don't know if
0:45.0	we're going to actually call this Monday night and I have that maybe I'll have a decision on that
0:48.8	at the end of this part or not. But I know what we're doing. The time we're done. Yeah. I know we're
0:54.2	doing on it. That's what matters the most. I don't have to have it. I'm like Brian Day. I don't have
0:58.0	the name of starting quarterback. But I know what I'm going to do on Saturday with my starting
1:01.9	quarterback until my offensive mind decides that I can't do that anymore. But we'll get into that.
1:05.9	So we're going to break up the game. We're going to use this Monday part every week to talk about the

1:37.8	emphatically no. There will be weeks when it's emphatically yes. And so we'll see where it is on
1:42.3	that scale when we get to the end of this part. But we're going to start with the quarterback. Nathan,
1:46.9	I gave Kyle McCord to see immediately after the game when we graded you gave him, I believe,
1:52.0	a B minus or C plus. I can't remember which one it was. I decided on a C plus. Okay. After
1:57.6	watching Comm McCord, 20 of 33 passing, he didn't have any touchdowns, but he did have 239 yards.
2:04.5	Did that great change? Because I think it changed for me a little bit.
2:10.6	Well, like I said, at the time, I was really on that fence between C plus B minus. I could be
