Hey, hey, where you been, but I talk is about to begin, hey, hey, hey, come on in.

0:26.0

Back to your Thursday book. I talked on the race day of the earth. Do you mean to get some questions from you guys from the textures 61435031315.

0:35.0

We didn't do a new call out because we still had so many good ones from the last call out. So we're going to run through some of those.

0:40.0

I want to get right to one and then we will decide if we have anything to say about the latest college playoff rankings.

0:49.0

And the basketball team. I am very uncertain about what we should be talking about the basketball team and how much people want to hear it right now.

1:05.0

Like it is important, but I can't I can't figure out where to squeeze it in.

1:10.0

How we live in a world of five podcasts a week. It's like I think there's no time to talk about basketball. Sorry, Steven. I'm sorry. We just got to do seven hours of football a week. We can't squeeze basketball in.

1:20.0

I don't know if it's this. It's not going to be an anchorify.

1:23.0

Six, maybe we'd have more time to be that one maybe just a little less time. So anyway, I want to I want to ask this question of because in the never ending discussion about the Ohio State run game.

1:35.0

I don't want to get people to get bogged down and think it's boring and think we're being repetitive.

1:40.0

There's a question here that really applies to it. It's from the 210 and again, it's from a couple of weeks ago, but it's still absolutely applies.

1:48.0

What's the deal with Evan prior more specifically, how should we be thinking about him? Is he going to be the definitive number two back next year and the awesome or is he going to be a perpetual depth guy.

1:59.0

And who is he going to look like when he gets on the field. So let's talk about talk about Nathan how Evan prior is going to be used eventually on this team.

2:09.0

In a world where I'm not sure anybody thinks Trayba and Henderson should be getting 30 carries a game.

2:38.0

What do we think of Evan prior now and what do we think of Evan prior in 2022 and 2023.

2:46.0

You know, for right now, I guess he's having pretty much a season that I expected him to have considering he's a true freshman on a team that has the people in front of him that he has.

2:56.0

So I think it's been good that they've been able to get him in in a limited way. What's he at like 45 snaps for the season, something like that.

3:02.0

It's been a very small sample size seen a little bit of production out of him in those circumstances.

3:08.0

But I think what you bring up is intriguing and one that I hadn't really thought is like you say like we've seen this before where freshman all of a sudden sort of emerge right around Thanksgiving in a really fun way.
