This is the athletic football show.

Welcome to the athletic football show.

Today's Tuesday, December 14th.

I'm Robert Mays.

Mitchell Schwartz is traveling today. He will be back with us later in the season. Do not worry. But pinch hitting in his stead is our good friend. Nate Tyson, Nate, how you doing, buddy? Doing great. I mean, it's twice in 12 hours, it feels like. We should just keep recording the whole time through. I mean, might as well just not even sleep on Sunday nights into Monday morning. Hey, Ken, I'm keeping it on, Ken. You get it, producer Ken, I'm just going to keep it on. You can edit it later. That's it. We'll just have one 24 hour, a little file that we send you. You had some French soak pie last night after the show, huh? How was that? Oh, my God. I love the good French soak pie. It's my favorite, my absolute favorite pie. I was such a picky eater as a kid. And then my mom, you know, so like apple pie. I like apple pie now. That's the opposite of me. I ate my dad. You say I would eat anything not moving faster than me. That's, oh, I know my entire family now don't, don't. I eat everything. But that was the thing is when I was in high school, there's a couple schools that recruited me as a tight end. And everyone, I was out 195 pounds, six four, just real thin. Oh, I know. And everyone was like, really tight end? And then they looked at my dad and they're like, he'll put on weight.

He'll get there. fit. Oh, I know. And everyone was like, really tight end. And then they looked at my dad and they're like,

he'll put on weight. He'll get there. And then sure enough, when college, when you're broken college and starving, you start eating everything you can. So yeah, that weight came on quick.

I was 225 my senior year. I'm 22. My junior, though it was 2.45. So I was much bigger than you in high

school, despite being six inches shorter than you. Yeah. My first varsity experience, James Lerner

and I just tore me in half. I was 160 pounds as a sophomore. And he, uh, he absolutely teabone

me. And I, uh, like, that's the last thing I remember is going up in the air

with James Lerner and ice on top of me. So yeah, that's why I learned, oh, maybe I should

start lifting weights or play quarterback. Or play quarterback. Yeah, exactly. All right. As we always do

on Monday into Tuesday, we're doing the mailbag today. Really appreciate you guys sending in the

questions. A lot of fun ones today. We have a nice breezy energy with this guy as we get a little bit

later into the season. So Kent, why don't you cue up the first voice mouth for us?

Hi, Robert. Nate, yesterday on the show, we talked about the problems with the Panthers and the

Jaguars and of course, Urban Meyer and that rule, both came straight from coaching college to NFL head coaching jobs.
