| 0:00.0 | I've always thought of Andy as a pioneer. When I think Andy Staples, I think pioneer, Andy, |
| 0:03.8 | like Lewis and Clark. You're right up there. Yeah, we're Saka Joia. No, I think I'm more of a |
| 0:12.1 | Pied Piper than a pioneer. Okay. You know, lead everybody. Where they're going to, no, look, |
| 0:19.2 | my decision was easy. You take people who have done a thing a couple times already and had success with it and they're going to go? No, look, my decision was easy. You take people who have done a thing a couple times already and had success with it, |
| 0:24.8 | and they're doing it a third time, and they've refined the process, |
| 0:28.0 | and all they care about is college sports, |
| 0:31.5 | which is pretty much all I care about professionally. |
| 0:34.5 | Pretty easy decision. |
| 0:36.7 | You and Chris Lowe, one of your new colleagues, Chris Lowe, reported about Alabama booster |

It'll be fine. Well, yeah, we're going to get to that in a moment. But the truth is, obviously we live here, we're right in the middle of it. We talk about it every day.

And that's just, that's the way it is right now. I would agree with that, Ryan. I think that's exactly the way to approach it. |
| 1:27.2 | And, you know, I was thinking about this Wisconsin game. |
| 1:29.3 | I was at about this, |
