| 0:10.2 | subscribed. If you haven't rated and reviewed the podcast, please do so. That's how we keep it |
| 0:15.6 | growing. Welcoming in the crew, as I do every single week, We have Bryce Marriage. Bryce, how you doing? |
| 0:22.1 | Doing good, as always. As always. And Steve Lorenz, Mr. Lorenz, how are you? Welcome back to the podcast, sir. |
| 0:28.9 | Good. Good as always. Yeah, man. Glad you guys could come back in at a time where, I don't know, Steve. I mean, what do you think that the news that was dropped last week by Steve Wilfong |
| 0:40.9 | about Tavier Dunlap closing in on a decision, what kind of feel? |
| 0:47.1 | First of all, let's bring people up to speak because he's, and when we talk running back |

| 2:09.4 | Really, he's eliminated everybody. It is down to those two schools, Oklahoma State and Michigan. |
