Podcast ain't played nobody. It's the season, Bill, I'm going to scream it down the hallway

of this Hampton Inn real fast. Which, God, I couldn't be more excited. I hope the two cleaning

ladies down the hall are excited. I mean it wouldn't be a podcast unless we got

interrupted by a motel made I am I'm ready we've already knocked out the my

random phone call phone ringing experience before we even got started here so maybe that means we're done

with that. Let me see if I can talk myself into being excited enough to scream down the hallway.

It's not here right now but that's because we record the podcast in the mornings when I'm at my weakest.

It's for balancing power and you're at your strongest.

We do this thing at 6.30 at night and I'm like halfway into being tutored up it'd be a whole different podcast.

We have a lot to get to we're just going to jump right into it.

So let's do announcements first.

For those of you you don't know this is the podcast name play nobody if you're listening for the very first do you think anyone's listening for the very first time right now?

Yes, at least one person.

Okay, so if you are welcome welcome, this is podcast named Play Nobody. I like to think of it as a college

football marriage of numbers and words. Bill Connolly is our resident robot. He invented

the S&P Plus analytics system. He is the author of

college football study hall. He is the author of a forthcoming book in which we'll talk about

a little bit later. And then my name is Stephen Godfrey

and I'm a reporter and sometimes I write things

about people who pay college football players and that's basically it.

I don't have a, your list of qualifications

is way better than mine already.
