| 0:06.9 | This off-season has been a very, very fun one. |
| 0:09.8 | And I was starting to wonder when we were going to see a lot more of the drama in terms of like Big Ten drama. |
| 0:16.6 | Because this all season is kind of been dominated by SEC drama. |
| 0:19.3 | Yeah. |
| 0:19.6 | And, you know, Eric Weddle over the weekend had some thoughts, had some takes. Intrinsic, shout on Intrinsic. Cut them up because he's the number one Michigan retractor. And it has led the entire Michigan fan base into kind of a frenzy. And the Michigan media has been spinning like crazy. So look, we've got that today. We've got Colin Simmons talked a little bit about the business he's trying to take care of against Columbus this year. And I want to talk about that because I do think that's fascinating. But again, like the number one story today is going to be all about Bryce Underwood. But before we get into that, Pat, how are you? It is a pattern day, a surprise pattern day. Zach has some very important stuff he's taken care of. He misses you all, I'm sure. |
| 0:57.7 | I miss him. how are you? It is a pattern day, a surprise pattern day. Zach has some very important stuff he's taken care of. |
| 0:56.0 | He misses you all, I'm sure. I miss him as well. Obviously, I was gone. No, I actually didn't miss any shows. Well, I missed yesterday, but there was no show yesterday. Oh, yeah.

| 1:11.8 | all right miles Garrett trade thoughts It's the last minute. I guess speaking to yesterday, real quick, before I even ask, how are you either? |
| 1:27.3 | Yeah, we have not been doing. All right, Miles Garrett Trade, thoughts, bummed, not bummed, I guess I'm so I didn't present this in the show notes. I'm sorry. Yeah, dude, I don't know. There's multiple, you know, feelings right now. It's like, honestly, I was in disbelief all day yesterday because I'm like, really? Oh, yeah. |
| 1:27.9 | It just, |
| 1:28.1 | it, |
| 1:29.5 | the last, |
