and Oh, welcome to a very special episode of Purple Insider Matthew Collar here and returning to the show

it has been far too long my friend my favorite journeyman quarterback in the world

sage Rosenfells and for those listening on the audio version wearing a

Reebok Miami Dolphins hat from the old days. What is going on sage? How are you?

I'm doing great. Good morning. I've been out of the podcast game a little bit just

doing an Iowa podcast for of for Iowa and Iowa

state fans got Iowa everywhere I do an interview about once every two weeks and I

just have I find people in my past former players or coaches or media people or

fret or present like Eric Eager from Pro Football Focus and he'll come on people

come on and sometimes we talk about football but really it feels like more of a how you been and I'd like to know more about you Kevin Carter you know who was a teammate of mine in Miami and now works for CBS Sports and covers a lot of college football.

But you know, he's one of the other, he's the other guy who played for Steve Spurrier and Nick

Sabin. I think there's two people in the whole world and it was Kevin Carter and myself.

So that's what I've been up to amongst other things,

but not in the media game and not totally entrenched

in Vikings football, totally entrenched in the NFL or college football still of course following as a fan but it's nice to be

back on a talking ball. Yeah and our connection remains though because my wife and I go to this restaurant where you order and then they give you a number and the numbers are all from one to 19 so it's always a quarterback number. So every time we get the number, then I'll say, oh, well, that's that's Bobby

Bristol or that's Bernie Kozar or whatever. So what I'll do is I'll go to the pro football reference

page screenshot their stats without the name send it to you to see if you can

identify the journeyman quarterback without seeing their name and you have never missed.

You nailing Bobby Brister was pretty darn impressive, but that remains our connection of talking

ball from time to time. But I want to talk to you this week specifically

because of your connection with Brock Purdy you didn't just go to the same school
