Welcome to On the Bench, a happy new year to all of no nation in what a new year it has been so far.

Let's see that the Seminole's capped off 2022 in style with a 3532 win against Oklahoma and the cheese at bowl.

I got to explore a new brand of cheese it, which we'll get into that. I'm sure at some point.

And then 2023 hits and FSU gets an announcement that Fabian love it is back and gets one of the a commitment for one of the top transfers in the country induce Cyprus.

So there is a lot to get to here in this episode of on the bench. I am joined by my two 24 seven sports colleagues, Zach Blostin, Chris Nee, almost 24 seven sports colleagues.

Gentlemen, happy new year. How's it going?

It's great. Thanks for asking. Happy new year to you too. Thank you. Chris is so lively. Happy new year, everyone. It's going great. Love and have a new year started, especially for you know, FSU related stuff. So just keep talking along.

I think starting point for us. Chris, we need to show some appreciation to young Zach Blostin because we were trying to like just.

Well, I was not thinking straight multiple times yesterday. Don't give me that look. I don't understand what's happening. I feel very judge.

What makes that any different than any other day? It was it's it's more it's worse than usual. I had in laws. I had travel. I my dad has stayed with him for a couple nights in Orlando and not only does he snore constantly. He has night terrors and he's talking his sleep constantly.

So I'm not as fresh as normal. So anyways, there was a couple of things yesterday. Like we had some scoop that we could have written and I didn't even think about to write it and Zach was like, Brendan, you should write it.

It was about Fabian love it about Jared verse about ventral cypress. And so that was good. And then Chris our most viewed story yesterday with everything that we had going on at those 24 seven.

Was Zach story on the transfer rankings of FSU being number one in the in the transfer class. So it's easy money.

And that Zach was like, Hey, layups do it guys. And I wasn't thinking about any of that. So thank you Zachary.

How do I have to get you geezers in place from time to time? You know, I was in full support of you Zach. You brought it up. I said easy money.

He's like the coach telling us like, Hey guys, take the layup. Don't do the set shop from 40 feet away because you're old and you have bad knees. They're letting you take it to the hole. Take it. Take it.

Do you want to start talking about the football game? Let's let's do that. The season is over for FSU. We will do a 2022 season in review round table with the entire Noel 24 seven crew.

I think on Tuesday evening, right, Zach help me out here Tuesday evening. Yeah, I'd remind you that this morning. Thank you. Yeah, like I'm struggling here.

It doesn't feel like a Monday. Yes, I felt like Monday.

Give it time. It will.

We will go over the entire season. Maybe take a look at, you know, whether team box checkers or team landing stickers one.

Do a few of our make fun of our win share totals, which we're all probably very, very much so under FSU winning nine regular season games and then attempt win against Oklahoma.
