all right i'm going to knock these two calls out because i can't end the topic on that last call

0:05.3

and second of all i got to move on from this because i want to get to some NFL stuff including

0:11.0

again i know there's no michigan michigan state this weekend and the lions are playing what used to

0:15.5

be the commanders not a lot of sizzle but we do have things to do i want to get the two calls

0:20.5

we can get a couple of texts and then this is done. But it can't end on a guy reading a script and suggesting Luke Fickle. It just can't. I can't live in that world. We're going to go to Grant 97. Grant, what's going on, buddy? Oh, how's it going, guys? Yeah, so I wanted to jump on here real quick. I mean, the guy that came in here

0:38.3

and said Luke fickle, boy, did he have everybody cracking up in their cars today? All that for

0:42.5

Luke fickle. My thing I really want to talk about is we're talking about getting a new coach,

0:46.7

and I get it. It's the buzz thing to say, you know, the guy's not working out. He stands

0:51.6

there. He has no emotion, which I don't know which MSU coach would

0:56.0

have emotion with currently having the donors that they have and the NIL they have. So when you're

1:01.1

not provided anything and you suck, is it just putting in another coach and then they're going to be

that'll change everything, right? Once we get the coach that we really want, we're then going to go spend all of our money. Well, you just picked a coach 600 days ago, 600 days ago, and now we're talking about another coach. And if you are going to go get a coach, you'd want to go get a cheap one, and you can. The guy down the street, his name's Tony, he's getting paid $200,000. And he's the Nick Saban of G2.

1:28.5

And, of course, he said, well, I'm not going to go anywhere.

1:41.7

No, I get it. I get the, oh, my God, but who else is going to come there? Grant, if you think your program is so bad that you've got to go hire Tony and East, just shut the program down. Just be done with it. Just go one double a at that point. Grant, I would say this.

1:42.6

I'm not against that either.

1:43.5

I'm not against that either, but.

1:45.4

I'm going on that.

1:46.8

Grant, I would say this.

1:47.7

Here's the problem with Michigan State. And maybe the fact that now you would have a new president, new AD with along with a new coach, you have to work in tandem. You have to have a plan. You have to know exactly what you're doing. It can't be segmented.
