0:00.0	Jesse, are you ready for rapid fire.
0:14.9	I am because I think we have some fun topics tonight.
0:18.5	Okay.
0:19.1	I'm glad.
0:20.2	I think that there's some recurring topic even that we're going to get
0:22.9	into at some point. So here's what I want you to do, first of all, rank the top three
0:28.2	Notre Dame players with the most expectations on them this upcoming season.
0:33.9	So this is a loaded question because I think expectations, expectations to me is you're kind of, like, I'm not going to say Jordan Patelo in this situation because all, all eyes are already kind of on him. To me, expectations are maybe someone that we're not worrying about because we think they're just going to perform at a super high level.
0:57.0	You know what I mean?
0:57.4	Like when we're looking at like potential things that could go wrong, we're not thinking about this person because we're just, we expect them to execute at a high level and never kind of be an issue.

1:25.9	defense. And that's led by Riley Leonard at quarterback. So that's, that's the offense as a whole has to catch up to the defense and that's led led by
1:27.8	rye lernet quarterback so that's that's the easy number one i agree with that completely he is
1:33.3	number one on my list as well and you know kind of to your definite you know like you said i i
1:37.5	toyed with what's the phrasing of this going to be is it expectation is it Is it pressure? You know, like there are a lot of
1:46.3	different ways, you know, and the one choice of word can sort of change things. You know, like
1:53.2	Betelow, like you said, maybe he's pressure. But the definition that you kind of gave is basically
1:59.1	what I'm thinking about. It's like these guys are just flat out expected to perform at a high level.
