I'm Stephen Means.

That is Stefan Christnick, and that is Andrew Gillis.

You can see our lovely faces. If you're subscribed to our YouTube channel, as we're gradually going to start doing more video forms of things. And we're starting with our Big Pot every single week. Last week, we drafted offensive players in the Big Ten. This week we are going to draft the defensive players in the Big Ten. And the draft order this time around is I'm going first. Gillis is keeping his second pick and Stefan is going third. I never go first when we do drafts because it just kind of feels weird. I'm like, I'm hosting this thing. I'm definitely going to take the best thing every single time we do this. But every so often, you just got to, you know, I want to go first. I want to, I don't want to always have to feel like I'm reacting. I want to sometimes set the tone for the thing here. Stefan, what do you think is harder in terms of trying to put your board together, the offensive side or the defensive side when you're talking about best players in the big dent? You know, I'll be quite honest. Usually when we come into things like this, I think you assume offense is easier just because there's, you know, receivers are flashier and easier names to remember, right? Running backs, quarterbacks, right? It's easier names to remember. In doing the research for this, there's a lot of defensive stars coming back in the Big Ten. Yeah. Right? Like there was some young defensive studs, you know, last year that are back now at college football programs or, you know, the Big Ten's done a good job of going out and getting some guys in the transfer portal. I think Michigan's defense is probably going to be mentioned a few times in terms of transfers and what Kyle Whittingham did. Ohio State, you know, has had a heavy, you know, transfer portal cycle on the defensive side of the ball as well. So between, you know, guys that are just coming back or guys that Big Ten teams got out of the transfer portal, it's, I think the defensive side was pretty easy because I was kind of going through some of the list and it's like, man, like, I remember that name. I remember that name. Like, I remember watching that guy. There's not a lot of not a lot of unknown names that you're kind of projecting there's some guys that are going to be on this list where we're going to say like hey this guy's recruiting profile and it being year two or year three like suggest that he's going to make a jump and it's it's time to go for that guy but otherwise i think as as people listen and watch to this pod they're going to hear some names that they're going to recognize pretty immediately from watching Big Ten football last year.

I agree.

I agree entirely with Stefan, but I also, because I agree, agree entirely with Stefan, I think
