Michigan athletics involved in another scandal.

0:00All right. So our scandal to jurid Michigan is a hockey scandal. Great. Disturbing story in the free press yesterday about hockey hazing in Michigan from 1984 to 2001. I believe it was 16 former players claims of sexualized torture with all with all cases. The gator, you know, don't rush to judgment. There has to be this thing has to play itself out, but I'm getting I'm growing so fatigued of stories at the University of Michigan and my call to action. FFS Michigan has to they got a new president, please, please, please, please make sure that the next AD sets a culture of uncorruptible virtue. Ethical standards need to be at the highest of considerations.

1:01Well, they should be. You know, when it comes to stuff like this, none of this should be tolerated. Yes, let let it go through the system and the right channels that it has to go through before you come to a judgment on it. But I mean, based on what you've read and the first blush, it's awful. It's true. It's brutal. There are had a chance to talk to someone who was a player at Michigan and said, some of it he saw some of it he didn't. He did not know that red new or what red new. He saw no evidence. One thing he categorically denied, but he only was there for a period of time was he saw no evidence of playing time or anything was was truly riding on this. But what's the long period of time that that's alleged to have gone on and his his period of time he said he saw no evidence of that. But again, let this thing play out in court. There are there are cases like this that some of them have great credibility and great defense and hazing stories and locker rooms are not new.

2:10You have to to vet all this. I mean, we don't have to do anything. There's a court case. It'll be it'll play itself out, but I did make a call today. Somebody who played there to try to get some background on it and did. But I again, just there's a new president, right? And the new president is going to be a part of the hiring process for the new AD. And you've heard me say this a bunch about Kyle, winning him. One of the things I like about Kyle, winning him is that historically he's run a relatively clean program out there at Utah. There are everybody. You know, there's always going to be an issue here or there, but Kyle, winning him was considered a good coach. He runs a clean program. And so in the end, in the end, let's make sure that you know, Michigan fans keep that in mind. I know there's some some great concern over the way the football team played this Saturday. But, you know, the opinions of Kyle, winning him are formed over decades.

3:10And I would encourage people not to you can do what you want, but I wouldn't throw those opinions out after one Saturday. And I certainly do expect that there will be issues with the football program too, but far less under Kyle, winning him. So I've called for a rudder to the football program. And hopefully he is it and it is a quiet time, relatively speaking. But another day scandal disser and it's it's growing. I'm getting tired Scott. I'm getting really tired. Well, you're not alone. I mean, everybody's tired of this stuff. Nobody wants to think this is possible that this could have happened. And it's going to go through all the emotions again. I mean, it's just one after another, you know, some stuff gets resolved some stuff just kind of goes away. I hope there's a real resolution to whatever happened with this. If it kind of feels a little empty with the the both Shambler, Dr. Anderson stuff. See how they address this one.

4:16Other than that, how are you? Fine. Fine. Yeah, no, doing all right. I got to catch up with an old friend last night. So it was good. And then came home, watched the football game. Good to see football is back, even with such a boring ass game like that. What? And some horrible, horrible decision making from Drake, may. Oh my God. That guy got that team into the Super Bowl last year. The schedule got into the Super Bowl last year. I mean, they did have the win games. I checked the schedule. They had to win games. The other teams lost them. Maybe that was the case. That was, I mean, if you're going to judge a season on one game, that team's going to win like three games this year at best. And of course, that's not going to be the case. But I don't know what the hell that was I saw last night. That was terrible, terrible football from the Patriots. Checks notes loser chooser yesterday. I wonder strongly about a year to Drake, may regression. I think the logical regression starts here. The England loses game at Seattle.

5:29It's one of those things that I also shouldn't get carried away after one game with drag man doing victory laps. But I could see it happening to New England this season. And you know what? This is third year by the way. Sorry, my bad. I could see the regression coming now. The other thing about that game last night is that. Five plays in Sam Donald goes down gets it goes down leaves the game. His status moving forward is unknown. I guess he's going for an MRI today. I don't know there's been any update this morning. I haven't seen anything. It's got a hip. It's got a hip. And AJ Brown has an ankle a knee or a Achilles. That when he went down with an injury and he and he wasn't getting up that didn't they said ankle. I'm like that doesn't look like ankle to me. I hope it's not Achilles. But I feel like these days it's almost like the go to when somebody tries to get up and then they can't. Yep.

6:36Yep. And then you see the pain on their face like emotional pain and physical pain. I hope it's not the case. I hope he's out for a very limited time. So it's a really good player in this league, but that sucks. I have two new rules that I abide by. I make rules for myself and I try and follow said rules. The rules are get to know your practice squad and put resources in to the backup quarterback. And I'm not sure my guy B underscore homie did that. Well, I mean, Drew lock is just true lock great last I checked. No. And I got to the point. My point is that you can go ahead and win and be the team that actually gotten played for the Super Bowl last year that you beaten a Super Bowl last year. And you can do it with your backup quarterback who's pretty unheralded in Drew lock. I would rather have Drew locked in Josh Dobbs, but I'm hopeful I'm wrong on that one. I'm one of the things that was just an absolute Hail Mary that I couldn't believe was reality is when they had Teddy Bridgewater slated to be that guy.

7:49I hope Dobbs is better than I give him credit for. I hope Dobbs is a move the chains get the ball down the field kind of guy, but those are rules I live by. Get to know your practice squad and invest in the backup quarterback. I can't did ask a question off the air. Because can you made this prediction. I think it was a pull to ask prediction years ago about the NFL seven days a week. Yeah. Everyone's like, you're crazy, man. They would never do that. Why would we need we don't need football every day of the week. We just had a scheduled Wednesday opener. It's going to be a Thursday game. I guess the NFL is beholden to not playing games on Friday. To interfere with high school football, but that that you know that's where they draw the line. Yeah, I dropped it down. It's funny. Yeah. The first time Netflix comes a buy and offers a billion dollars for a Friday night football package. It would create some scheduling nightmares. But was a Wednesday night opener. Is this what we want? We want Wednesday Thursday.

8:51Are we good with this? I'm usually in the more football camp is good is good, but I'm fine for the opening week. Yeah. Let's not make this a habit of every week adding a one. I do not want a Wednesday night game throughout the season for the first week in a season. I was okay with it last night. I don't know if I'll be okay with that long term. I was just getting used to hey, Thursday and opener and now you're having Wednesday and Thursday night opener. Was that just because they have a game in Australia? I don't know. I don't love the idea. I was fine with it last night because I'm kind of starved for it after the fact that I'm yes, I'm still watching the Tigers. Wait, that was a big win. That was big win. Series win. Yes, I'm still paying attention to that because they weren't on TV last night because they weren't TV the afternoon. I was looking for something to fill my Wednesday evening without having to resort to watching my AEW wrestling. I always tape it and watch it later. So I could watch it live, but I have football. So I was happy 2485 3997. I feel about football round the week full week of football.

10:02Can this is are we truly moving towards this was everybody on board with that? We got the NFL Blitz thingy at 10 30. We have got big old tub of pretzels at 11 30. We have kind of changed the format for that in that we want you to text over random questions sports or non sports like the question the listener asked Jared golf yesterday was fantastic.

So the case maybe you have your buddies the bar. Yep, but we're here for you sports or non sports big old tub of pretzels today at 11 30. It's Carson Anderson here on 97 one.
