was good. I see y'all in the chat going hard per usual, usual suspects. We're going to dive
right into it. Going to talk about a generational five star to a house state, a house state, excuse me,
Fina. It's a familiar name. And there's been some updates with this prospect. We're going to
talk about as well. And so remember, when you send us one of our super chats, it helps to go towards
a pay of forward, which is our military and our first responders. We're going to look out for them
because they always look out for us. Nevada, what's up, man? How are you feeling after this weekend?
Busy sports weekend. And you know, I know you got some stuff coming up. What's going on?
Yeah, just kind of sad that Ohio State to make the sweet 16. But hey, we're in the spring
football. Lots of great things going on. And some recruiting stuff really starting to pick up
for the Buckeyes as well. And the Ohio State brands never been hotter. And they announced today,
Jackson's fifth in Jigba is now the highest paid wide receiver in the history of the NFL. I think
what was like 120, 130 million guaranteed 42 million a year. This is a point of reference,
Justin Jefferson's at 35 million a year. So that's 20% higher than Justin Jefferson for the great
Jackson Smith and Jigba, you know, unbelievable accomplishment. And obviously all those things,
whatever that happens, my first thought is always, how does that help Ohio State? And the answer is,
you know, considerably because you know, all these guys want to get paid. They want to develop.
They want to go on to NFL riches. And, you know, it looks like, I mean, what's Jackson's
fifth in Jigba going to make in the NFL? You're not $500 million dollars for his car. I mean,
that's what you want. That's the eye on the prize as opposed to an extra 100,000 here,
an extra 100,000 there in LA, how many, you know, developed your culture over cash. And you
a great day for the Buckeyes with Jackson's fifth in Jigba. And a great calling card for Ohio State
recruiting in general. Yep, reaching the agreement with Seattle on a four-year 168.6 million
contract extension that now makes it in the highest paid receiver in NFL history. Like Nevada said,
the deal of averages, excuse me, 42.15 million per year and includes over 120 million guaranteed
both setting records for any wide receiver. So yeah, listen, this is what we do. We do this, man.
And so for those who thought that, you know, bright heartline leaving would just, because there
have been some hot takes, Nevada, of, oh, man, you know, we're about to fall off. Now, I don't
I ignore scum fans. They always, you know, try to cast our doom. They've been cast in our doom
since, you know, Tressel was here. But even just some non-hater fans, like, oh, well, it's over.
Not so fast, my friend. Not so fast. We talked about this Brian Heartline has had the power
of the black hole behind him. And remember, the ride receiver coach before him was a pretty good
recruiter too. I mean, we've been wide receiver. You we've been duking it out with LSU and other
schools for wide receiver you for a long time. So don't think things are just going to stop because
Heartline is gone, especially when you got stuff like this happening, which is a good transition.
And I will pull this up Nevada into the generational five star phenom that we are referring to.
And who is that? Nevada, you want to get into that? That be a jet Harrison, which first of all,
jet Harrison is one of the great football names of all time. You know, I'm sorry. It'd be like,
if your name wasn't wasn't brand-in, but it was like, be hops, Moses or something like that.
I mean, like, hey, mom and dad, you shouldn't name me holy. That'd be great. But yeah, jet Harrison
is an absolute fabulous name. Obviously, the son of the great wide receiver, Marvin Harrison,
senior and the brother of the great buckeye, Marvin Harrison, Jr. So, you know, the early
word from Ohio State, I mean, this has been kind of a continuing thing. But the word from Ohio
State is that they, you know, confidence is high that jet Harrison's going to be a buckeye,
the word that we've gotten over the weekend from jet Harrison's camp is that's the way that's
turning as well. So this is, you know, a very familiar name for Ohio State fans. But this is a
player that's come in probably much more, you know, heralded than brother Marvin. I mean, because
I mean, Marvin came in and, I mean, I'm not saying he wasn't recorded a good wide receiver,
but it wasn't like, oh, wow, like this guy's the next, you know, the next big thing. Franky
Campbell cord was considered a higher recruit than Marvin Harrison was. It was almost like, hey,
this guy's almost like a package deal with his quarterback and this and that. The other thing
like that, you know, it's funny how those things turn out. But yeah, jet Harrison, the next great
Harrison wide receiver now a five star five star wide receiver and definitely a guy that I
could see Ohio State adding to their to their wide receiver hall here, you know, coming up relatively
shortly. So definitely good news coming on the recording front. For sure, let me go out and go
back into these highlights. But yes, jet Harrison is an incredible name. That's just stupid,
like stupid, like fire, like that's a video game name. You know, when you're like playing
madden or something, you making a creative player, that's a creative player name. And so I'm
going to pull this highlights up, but you're right. People forget Marvin Harrison was like a
four star four star kid. Good prospect, but you know, is he overhyped because of his name? I mean,
you were getting stuff like that throw in with Kyle McCord or that. But let me ask you Nevada,
because I know you watch jet and I'm going to pull him up now. But I want your thoughts on the
differences. I know the differences, some of the differences I see and also see some similarities
with him with Marvin. But there's some things that I feel like he is just low key better at
jet is over Marvin. And so I wanted to get your thoughts on jet and then I'll jump in.
Well, I mean, to me, you know, I mean, the one knock that I would have on Marvin, if you can
possibly make a knock on a guy as great as Marvin Harrison was at Ohio State, I mean, sure,
he hasn't gone to the NFL and completely torn it up, but you know, 12 or 14 TDs in two years,
14 high yard, you know, 686 yards this year despite only playing 12 games. But I never felt like he
was a big speed kind of guy, you know, like a guy that could kind of blow the top off there.
And I just, you know, you know, jet just looks twitchy here and faster and more fluid
than Marvin did. And you know, Marvin was a great tactician, you know, great catch radius,
really strong guy. But I think jet's more explosive. And I think he's a guy that could play
in a number of different positions. And I think he could play in that slot, that Jackson Smith
and Jigsaw spot. But I also think he's a type of guy that could take the top off on the defense.
So to me, just a little bit more athletic Harrison, which that just sounds kind of crazy saying
that, but that's how I that's how I see him and be interested to hear what your perspectives
are on jet Harrison. No, I agree. I think he's clearly more explosive. But he also high points
the ball just as well as Marvin Harrison was because Marvin Harrison in his high school film,
he did a good job with 50, 50 balls. But also, look at the route. Let me go back here to about
right here. Look at this route coming up. Hold on to the next clip. All right, here we go.
Check out this route right here at the bottom of the screen.
Boom. And he gets held like stuff like that to me is just like, okay,
yeah, because Marvin Harrison was very fundamental, very solid. He's bigger than jet.
Jet is only six one. Let me see six one one one seventy five.
Marve was like six two and a half six three, you know, in high school, taller. But his brother
is high point in the ball just as well. His route running looks great. But he does look
twitchier and more explosive. And so obviously with the smaller size that might, you know, lead
to that. But still, I mean, he might end up having a higher ceiling than Marvin Harrison. And
clearly he's a five star. The rivals has him as a number one player. Right. So I mean, look at this.
Boom. I mean, he's just he's running east and west to get north with great speed. He doesn't drop
balls. I mean, to get him to come here, because you know, a lot of times, you'll see not a lot of
times, but sometimes you'll see some legacies or brothers say, I'm going to, you know, I'm going to
do my own thing. I mean, if jet does come here, it kind of to me, Nevada, you can tell what you
think. It kind of confirms like, you know what? Like my brother was treated very well at that school.

Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner
at Morgan Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think
I saw billboarded years recently that said 20 billion one. 20 billion is an insane number.
Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north probably closer to 22-23
after this year. And each year we get bigger and better and our army grows, so the number will
hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in
contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident? Probably the easiest way
is dialing pound law. It's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open or call centers
always waiting to take your call. 24-7-365. Wow, Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's
largest injury law firm. Thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit forthepeople.com
for an office near you. Because, look, honestly, sometimes these, these family member brothers or
whatever don't end up going to some, to some schools because they like, my brother was,
that was not a good situation, low key. The public might not know it. You know what I'm saying? So
anyway, I'm just saying, if we able to get jet here who might be even better, that just shows how
dope the program. And that's without heart line, Nevada, your thoughts. Well, yeah, I think there
would be a great endorsement of kind of for life after heart line that you could land, you know,
a receiver of this category. But, you know, if you're jet Harrison, you'd have, I mean,
Marvin would have had to have had a really bad experience, so I was there for you not to want to come
here. You know what I'm saying? I mean, because all these, these kids are not stupid. They're
looking at and kind of going, okay, Jackson Smith and Jigba, Garrett Wilson, Crystal Lobby,
Margaret Harris and Noah Brown. I mean, just go on and on and on and on down the list.
And you got the best one of literally the best one of the bunch of J.J. Smith is the next one.
So I don't, I mean, you never like to say that anything's immortal lock when it comes to
recruiting because there's a lot of elements in there. But why on earth would you gamble with
your future? Because Camino has states of sure thing, you know, bar and injury, you're going to
have a great career, you're going to go on to NFL riches. And that's what these guys want to do.
You go anywhere else and it's, I'm not saying there's no chance, I mean, that would be ridiculous,
but it's less of a, there's a greater chance that it doesn't turn out the way that you want it to be.
And, you know, Marvin Harrison senior was obviously a very cerebral guy, Hall of Famer.
You know, you know, Marvin Harrison, you know, Jr. certainly has has out surpassed his high school
recruiting ranking in terms of where he was wrapped the NFL draft and the kind of situation
he's put himself in there. So I would, you know, it'd be shocking for Jeff to go short of,
you know, there being just one of the things where you just don't want to go on your brother's foot
steps. You just don't want to go the same place your brother, but we're not hearing any of that.
And I think that's really the big story. We're not hearing any of the, hey, you know,
I just want to go blaze my own trail. Hey, I don't really want to go to Ohio State. Hey,
Marvin didn't really have the best, you know, contrary to what you think. He didn't really have
a great time at Iowa. We're hearing none of those things. And that again, you know, that gives me
that much more confidence that that Jet Harrison's going to end up as a bucket.
Yeah. And so let me ask you, I was going to kind of go into a spill, but I want to tee it up for you.
What is the common denominator, Nevada? What is the, and I'm a touch on really quickly in a second,
another receiver we got coming in who could have left, who could have whatever, but, you know,
they seem to be doing things to double down on being a baca even more. I'll touch on that briefly.
What's the common denominator for a Jet Harrison and his family to want to stick and stay
even though the all world, you know, why receiver coach is gone?
I mean, to me, it's Ryan Day, you know, I'm saying to me, it's Ryan Day. And, you know, the fact that
Ryan Day, you know, if you think about what could screw up a wide receiver and what could screw up
a wide receiver's development. And that is, you know, don't play in a system that throws the ball
or don't play in a system that is really effective at throwing the ball and it gets the best quarterbacks.
And you know that Ryan Day is going to have the best quarterbacks. And that's, you know,
I think that's just kind of that extra security blanket that you have there. And, you know,
as a wide receiver, that's why, you know, the quarterback position in college football is overpowered
because when you get the good quarterbacks, well, you get all the other good players because then
everybody else wants to come there. And you most certainly get the best wide receivers because
the best wide receivers want to come where they're going to be throwing the ball to. And, you know,
when you've got, you know, the list of quarterbacks that we've had in the recent past and then
a current roster where you've got Julian saying you've got Taving St. Claire, you know, you're getting
the ball. It's going to get thrown to you. It's going to get thrown to you often. And, and Ryan
Day is certainly the, he's the competent nominator. He's the one thing that's there that's not changed
about Ohio State. And another reason why I think yet, Harrison, ends up a bug guy.
I agree. You said it. I didn't even have to say that that was not rehearsed. I knew he was going to
say that because it's the truth. And so, you know, he just, he knows how to not only that, but the
off the field stuff. I've heard Marvin Harrison and interviews just praise Ryan Day because even
Ryan Day and interviews talking about his son, he wants him to go somewhere where he know he's
going to be taken care of on and off the field because that's what he does. And so, I mean, all
these relationships and things like that with Ryan Day at the helm, just being a legit, like,
there's nobody. Nevada, I know your contact, your people, people I know, you know, that no Ryan
Day, like really no Ryan Day, nobody be like, man, he's really a deback behind the scenes. Don't
get it twisted. Like, he sucks. We hate him. Nobody. I mean, every now and then there might be a
disgruntled parent whose kid didn't play. But like, Ryan Day is that dude. He's the common denominator
for sure. And so, that's just, I mean, as long as we have him, I think the players and parents know
regardless of who leaves, we're going to replace them with somebody just as good if not better,
which is powerful because a lot of schools in Nevada would crumble losing a heartline.
Like, do you think they're real quick? And I'm going to pull up a quick clip of something. But
let me ask you, is that an overstatement to you that other schools, most other schools would crumble
losing a a stud recruiter like Heartline? No, I don't think that's, I mean, look, Ohio State was
concerned about it. So, so concerned that they gave hotline the offensive coordinator position,
even though he wasn't, you know, really ready or qualified to do it. But no, you know,
but and and again, I'm going to say this very carefully. That's why I'm enjoying every moment
of Ryan Day's here because look, I'm sure, you know, you can say, hey, the school's bigger than
Ryan Day. And of course it is, you know, you've gone from Woody Hayes, you know, Hooper,
and you know, Jim Trustle and Urban Meyer. Yeah, you can go down to the list of great coaches in
Ohio State. But it's not guaranteed that the next step is going to be as good, you know what I'm
saying? So, like, I want to enjoy every moment that Ryan Day's here because it's just, it's
sureity, you know, it's sureity that your offensive scheme is going to be first rate. It's sure
that you're going to be able to get great offensive and defensive coaches to come work for you.
It's it's sure that your academics are going to be in order, that you're the quality of kids you're
getting is going to be great, that your recruiting is going to be first rate, that you're always
going to have great quarterbacks. You're always going to have great winters here. You know what,
I mean, there's just a lot that comes along with Ryan Day and will we survive when he inevitably
moves on or whenever that is, of course, but I don't want that to be soon because again,
Ryan Day represents just a guarantee of greatness for Ohio State and that you can't really say that
about a lot of coaches and called football. Yep, preach, but you know, you'll still have people
who want to fire, but it is what it is. That's just pretty much the world we live in, but I'm glad he's
here too. This is Jameer Brown. I have on the screen and they're seven on seven. I'm bringing him up
because he's another kid. He's in the 2027 class. He's the number one receiver in Ohio, top 15
national player, five star, a stud stud stud. Very fast. I will call him a friend of the show. He's
been interviewed by Dev. I lost count. He's been on the show. Great kid, hard working kid.
And an Ohio product. And I mentioned this as far as double, I said earlier, doubling down.
He moved from a Uber Heights Wayne where Braxton Miller went. Closer to my neck of the woods,
here in Columbus area to a high school called Big Warner. Now, like I said, I said this before.
I don't forgive you were on the show about it, but you know, programs have like over the past 20
years or so being in the Columbus area. There are some programs who have went down and some that
have went up. Big Warner back. We scrimmaged him in basketball. We scrimmaged them.
I can't my junior year senior year. Anyway, we played at Big Warner and they wasn't like that.
Like their program was cool. They were solid, but they weren't like a powerhouse. So I was surprised
when I heard he moved to Big Warner. But then some others told me they they've been really good
in recent years. And you know, they got a good program of stuff like that. But anyway, the point is
Big Warner is not that far from Columbus. So he was interviewed and asked why he did that.
And one of the main things he said is so he can be closer to a house date. I know there were some
who are concerned about visits he might take and heartline leaving. But this kid, Nevada,
doesn't seem to be wavering at all. In fact, he's putting his money where his mouth is by moving
closer to a program so he can be closer to a house date. I mean, that's his words. So I mean,
this is another five star stud that could have left and demanded top dollar with heartline leaving.
And so this is just more proof. Now listen, obviously there's time between now and signing day.
But the evidence says he's not leaving, barring something crazy happening. And so then you got
jet in his family, who's a stud, and we're in we're still in on, you know, the monsoons and the
other guys. So I'm saying I have to say I'm landing all out for y'all. It's not over till it's over,
but the evidence right now shows that we're still pointing in that trajectory. We ain't stopping
this while receiver. We're crew and train, Nevada. Well, yeah, now it's, you know, I think for a
Ohio State, it's, you know, it's, you've got such a great reputation and, you know, it's,
it's a great place for anybody to develop. And I think Ohio State isn't, you know, you're not
breaking the bank in LA, but they're not taking a back seat. You know, they've got their
focused kids where they're, they're putting out real money. I mean, JD Smith is making real money
that you're drilling saying that they're going to get real money. I built, they'll pay guys for
production and, you know, getting them in there and they'll develop the heck out of them. But for
a kid like Jamira Brown, I always look at, you know, how, how is he reacting with the other
recruits? And he's the guy who's one of our lead recruiters. He's the guy that's,
I'm going to believe recruit, he's one of the guys lead recruiting on Jet Harrison. So it's like,
you know, I, I look at that and kind of go, well, you know, that's the kind of guy that I want
as black guys and it gives you a pretty good indication of where they're, where they're,
parts at, where they're heads at in the sole process. But when they're out there trying to
sell, we'll house the other people as well. To me, that really speaks volumes.
Yeah, man, I'm getting excited thinking about these future kids because I told you, I'm a huge

there's been fans from other fan bases like man, a heartline going, you're done. For real? You think so?
I don't think so. And that's not going to heartline. It's just we just we're not we're going to do
whatever we need to do to stay on top. You know, I'm saying a higher, you know, whatever.
And so just appreciate it. I'm telling the Nevada like we I thought about a Jay Z song.
It's the it's called the medley intro. And before he starts rapping. And he's he's like mocking
people asking like, well, he ever fall off. And he comes in like no. And then he starts spitting.
And he starts rapping his verse for those who know it's it's classic. You know, I don't talk about

George. Like that's a guy I said this before, but I bears repeating. I know I say get excited
about every recruit. And then I don't get sad about it. But if we don't get him, I'm going to be sad.
He's really, really good. He's really, really good. If he goes somewhere else, will we survive?
Yes. We'll football continue to be played most certainly. But we've led this recruitment for a
long time. We've pulled out every stop on this one. I feel it's like right where we need it to be.
And I really feel like we're getting him. And when we do, I'm going to be I'm excited about every
group. But I'm going to be really excited about that one because I agree with you. I agree with
you. I think that that kid is a big time player. And you know, I feel like you need that,
you know, you need that at the running back position to really be, you know, like last year,
if I had a criticism of our team last year, and you know, it's, and again, I know I'm spoiled
from having Trey Henderson and Quintrat Jackins year before. But I didn't feel like we were really
explosive at the running back spot last year. And in Bo Jackson's good and in a thousand year.
And I know all those things. But was he, was he great? And we expect kind of great at Ohio State,
you know, those guys that every time they touch the ball, you feel like they could take it to the
house, you know, and that's how I felt. Trey Henderson, every time Trey Henderson touched the ball,
I'm thinking he could house this. You know what I'm saying? Like, and if he gets a little
crazy, he's gone. I didn't feel that way last year. And I want to feel that way again about
the Ohio State running back room. And frankly, I don't know if I'm going to feel that way about
the running back room this year because, you know, I think Bo Jackson, Bo will most certainly be
better, Isaiah Wesley better. Jacob sent isn't really that kind of a back. And maybe legend
bays that guy. You know, maybe legend bay is that guy that can kind of make those things happen. But
but David Gabriel George is most certainly that guy. And I want to see him in Scarlett and Gray.
You brought us some things that trigger some thoughts. I had a discussion with some buddies
in mind about this. And we'll get to super chats. We're going to have a a harder stop tonight and
a little bit. And we'll get to super chats. But Nevada, you brought up some things that we discussed.
So here's the deal. I think one thing that contributed to the lack of explosion in the running back room
is James peoples did not step up and do what we all hoped he would do. Right? Running back out of
Texas. We saw really good speed on film and in planning against good competition. I mean,
physically he looked apart, you know, early on, you know, in the spring. I mean, he was doing well.
He was looking like he was going to be that guy. And it just never came to pass. He made some
progression throughout the year. You know, he leaped over a guy and he started to wake up a little
bit and be solid. But he wasn't. We needed more than solid from him. James peoples was supposed to be
the guy. And then, you know, the other guys chip in. So with that said, Bo Jackson and true
freshman had to be the guy. And then of course, CJ Donaldson was a short yardage guy, whatever
past pro guy. But Bo Jackson was our best to back. And he wasn't quite ready. He was coming off
the injury. You know, like all of that takes time to get your legs under you. Now with that said,
Nevada, here's the other thing me and my guys were discussing. And I'm not saying he's equal to
this person. But I saw similarities. And what was lacking? JK Dobbins, his freshman year.
He had a great freshman year. Remember, he was called jump cut Dobbins. I mean, he was
but his freshman year, he was getting walked from behind at times. But guess what? He improved on
that. He got faster. And he wasn't getting walked no more. I mean, when he was gone, he was gone.
Picture the Clemson game. And that in that inside zone play, nobody was catching him. But his
freshman year, he probably would have got walked maybe. Same thing with Bo Jackson. Bo Jackson to me
is a really good back. He has good vision. He leans forward. He gets north very quick. But he got
walked. Okay. He needs to to get what Mickey. I'm sure he is. This injury's not helping. But I think
just like JK Dobbins, he can improve on that Nevada to where he is a breakaway back because
he was almost there. I mean, like, who was it against? I forget the team, but it was a 60-yard
play all the way down to like the three-yard line. And he showed it was up the middle. He squeezed
through the hole and exploded downfield. I'm like, ooh, but he got walked. So if he can do like JK and
just get to that another level of speed and endurance and ability physically to go all the way,
I think he can be that guy because we see that he has it. But he was only a freshman and every
freshman is not going to be Tray Henderson with the speed. But I have hopes for Bo Jackson to take
it to another level of like where he can be really, really, really good for isn't about any thoughts
on that. Well, you also remember that Bo was coming off a pretty significant injury from his
senior year, you know what I'm saying? And so one year removed from that, you're not going to be
as good as you're going to be two years from now. So to me, that's the big thing. So would have
loved to see him in the spring, see how bouncing in spring is. But again, you're nursing a little
bit of an injury unrelated to the high school one, should be back, you know, full-going the summer
and then the fall. But I think it's a great point. I think he absolutely got it. I mean, he was
that way in high school. In high school, man, he was crazy. You know, I mean, he was just running
away from guys. So I absolutely believe he can do it. Now, I think I thought he was really close
last year. And if he picks up even just a little bit of speed, a little bit of explosiveness,
you know, a little bit back, you know, running a little bit sure, you know, again, last year,
there's no way he's running the same reckless abandon coming off an injury than he will be this year.
You know, his confidence is going to be at a completely different spot. So no, I think it's a
it's a good thing that we certainly could see more out of them and hopefully we will.
Yep. And then one other thing before we move to Super Chats, the wild card within Nevada's
explanation and criteria is Turbo Rodgers. Turbo Rodgers has plenty of speed. Is he ready? Does he have
the vision? Can he protect the ball? You know, is he able to be relied upon? Because we haven't
really seen Turbo play in a game. We just know he was highly rated, snatched him from Alabama.
He's a twitchy fast, you know, fast guy, but he has the ability to take it to the house.
But is he able to do that within the confines of being a running back? You know, I'm saying because
it's not like you just handed the ball and it's just a straight line with nobody to tackle you.
You said I'm saying Nevada. So what about Turbo real quick?
No, I look, I you know, Turbo is one of those guys that it's hard to get too excited about him
because we just haven't been able to see him on the field. But, you know, the players know
where the players are and you know, they say he's twitchy, they say he's fast, you know, certainly
he's high school film, you know, it's reflective of that as well. So he's okay, he's absolutely a
wild card. And again, as I mentioned before, Legend Bay, another wild card of this thing, you know,
what kind of guy like that do with the ball in his hands? But yeah, certainly, you know, Turbo would
be one that would that would be a nice surprise into 2026 if we get some out of Turbo Rodgers.
Oh, man, I mean, to me, I feel like he needs to, I mean, like, listen, you didn't play last
year, you've been in it. You're the most experienced Ohio State running back on the roster as far as
that's available right now. Like, you know, because, you know, Isaiah and, um, and Bo are not,
are not practicing. So you got to step up and lead and do your thing and, and carve out some play
in time. I mean, come on, man, let's do it. I want to see it. All right, real quick, uh,
keep Gordon happy birthday. Said he's checking in live from Daytona Beach. Oh, that sounds nice.
Nevada, it was 85 here in Columbus yesterday. Kids out riding their bikes. We're throwing the
football around. I might even have white, white a little bit of sweat. And then it was 30 this morning
here in Columbus. That's crazy. Bro, and then supposed to be like 40s, 50s and then go back up.
Listen, this is just Ohio weather. This is what it is. Tyler Reddick here from 2311 racing. Victory lane.
Yeah, it's even better with Chumba by my side. Race to ChumbaCasino.com. Let's Chumba.

going good, man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and
a managing partner at Morgan Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty
awesome. I think I saw billboarders recently that said 20 billion one. 20 million is an insane
number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north probably closer to 22,
23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and better and our army grows. So the number will
hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone do in
contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident? Probably the easiest way
is dialing pound law. It's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open. Our call center is
always waiting to take your call 24 7 365. Wow, Dan Morgan from Morgan and Morgan, America's
largest injury law firm. Thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit forthepeople.com

That's why we support the Durban Marshall credit card bill. See, things in credit unions help
small businesses make payroll. This bill would cut the vital resources they need while increasing
Megastore profits. They deserve it. Don't they? Tell Congress stop the Durban Marshall money grab
for corporate megastores paid for by the electronic payments coalition. I've been here all my life.
I still to me, it's not like I'm used to cold and snow, but it's the fluctuation. I don't know
if it's like that anywhere else other than the Midwest where it just goes 85 to 30 to next day.
Ridiculous. So I envy you, Keith Gordon. I hope you're having a great birthday and we appreciate
you anything on that Nevada. Yeah, happy birthday, man. Enjoy Daytona Beach. Nevada Buck is going
I'm going to be in Buffalo the rest of this week. I'm starting starting tomorrow. I'll be in
Buffalo. So what's the weather? I guess it's going to be cold. I haven't even checked the weather.
I'm assuming if Columbus is going to be cold, a bit of Buffalo is going to be cold too. So yeah,
Tuesday through Sunday for for Nevada Buck in Buffalo, New York. All right. So here we go.
So tomorrow in Buffalo, New York, a high of 34 Wednesday, 48 is the high. Thursday goes a little bit.
A little rainy 57 Friday back down to 33 and then snow on Saturday, 34 degrees. Now I don't
know when you're banging out of there Friday or Saturday, but well, it's not Saturday. It's
the national championships for hockey for for high school and my daughter's playing. And so
it depends on what they win. If they keep winning, we'll be there at the Sunday. If they lose,
I could be out of there earlier. So hopefully we're still playing on Sunday. That would be
good news. Yep. Now it doesn't look like it's going to be like typical Buffalo crazy. Like when you
look on TV at the bills, games like, man, this is crazy. It's not going to be snowing like that,
but still going to be a little chilly chilly up in Buffalo this week. But it's all good. You're
there for a great great cause. Stilly Matt, member for three months, shot out the Scoot family, the
acts and master B Moses and Hillsinski Nova Scotia Buck. That's right. I'll post in my
go ahead. I'm Buffalo. I'm Buffalo Buck now. I'm Buffalo. Buffalo Buck. To be fair,
he didn't, he posted this before you announced you were going to Buffalo. Yeah. This is so. That's
fair. So you know, you know, he'll be on it. He would have been on it. I'll meet you. You know,
I'm saying, he probably on it right now. He probably sent it one right now. As we speak, our
guys still be back. It's funny. I was talking to my wife. I was like, I posted my ax video.
And she's like, um, she's like, you tell them that I taught you how? I was like, yes,
did I told them that I quickly passed you by after a round or two because she did. She had, she
went, she done an ax thrown before I did. So I'm like, okay. And she's like, well, you got to do
this. Put your arm up. My art cool, cool. And then I start getting it. But she's a little competitive
as well. We got a competitive house. So, um, you know, when it comes to activities and sports
and about it. Well, yeah, it's, it's, I want to even ask her your wife learned how to throw the
ax before you did or whatever it is. But I just, I just can't get over the fact that like,
I mean, I know ax on is a thing and stuff. But like, ax on and drinking it, like, like,
there's just got to be like so many accidents and stuff. And people get hurt bowling. If you
can get hurt, bowling, you can sure as I get hurt, ax on, right? Yeah, I just, I'm sorry, the
play on words when you said accident, you know, just putting it together, you know, accident,
but I'm here all week. No, but I mean, listen, I thought about that too, because the place
we went is called Smash Park for you Columbus people. It's been Westerville. Bro, it's actually
dope. Nevada, they got like, uh, they got pickleball courts. They've got shuffleboard. You ever heard
of the duck pin bowling? You ever heard of that? Actually, actually, when I was in, when I was
in Halifax, I was, I went duck pin bowling. That's for some I've never done. It was candle pin,
candle pin bowling or duck pin bowling. Oh, I guess duck pin's different. Candle pins like the
thin pins and duck pins are those fatter pins. But they both have small like balls. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, exactly. Okay, so similar, it's similar. They had an arcade, a few other games and stuff
like that. So it was cool. It was a nice little date night with the wife who was fun, but I thought
the same thing about it. I was like, man, you got these ax throwing lanes. You got the, you know,
alcohol on tap, obviously, just, you know, people are goofy and you just, you know, so I don't
know. I don't know. We were fine, but I did think about that. Like, man, who they got like some
secret security behind the door waiting to jump out or something. Good, good, good insurance.
And I tell you what, you got to do that duck pin bowling ball. I tell you, kills your arm.
Like your arm will be hanging down by the next thing. You'll be like, oh, man,
this really, I mean, that just wrecks your arm. It can be deceptive because they're heavier than they
look, for sure. But yeah, it was fun, man. It was good stuff. All right. Let me see.
What I'll tell you, still be back. Thanks for wondering. Okay, a little buck. See, he was,
he was typing as soon as we were talking, typing. I love it, man. All right, Geo did thanks for
the five. With Jet Harrison wanting to be a buck eye with other elite Y receiver targets,
favoring us, it shows you how good a wide receiver coach Cortez Hankins is. Kudos to Ryan Day.
Now, Geo did, we were told he was a bum and he didn't develop people and that's what we heard
from people. But anyway, no, Hankins again, Ryan Day and his receiver room. All was like, yeah,
that's him. We'll take him. And so great hire and so far so good. We keep getting more signs,
Nevada. Again, it's early. Things can change. But I don't think they're going to change. I think he
was a good hire. And we keep seeing evidence towards that Nevada. Well, yeah. And if we get Jet
Harrison, if he commits this week, B Moses and I are going to go over Niagara Falls in a in a
barrel over there at the out of Buffalo, you know, I'm saying that in celebration of that thing.
We'll do the thing. We'll film it. I think you put on the YouTube channel and everything at that.
What do you think? Be good idea. It will go viral. I mean, that's it'll be our last video.
You know, but it'll be it'll be epic. We'll go out with a bang, you know.
Do that. If he was like, you was like, what happened to be was I went over to the
middle of the barrel with the Nevada Buckle with the Niagara Falls. I've never seen Niagara Falls.
Have you ever been in Niagara Falls before? I haven't. I haven't. I haven't. I've never seen it
before. So I'm looking forward to seeing it. Yeah, I've heard me and my wife entertain going,
you know, we're like, well, we're going to we're going to go this year type stuff. And we just
didn't end up going. I don't know. It's one of those things where I need something else to do.
Like, I'm not going there just for that. I need something else. So if we do go there,
yeah, you know what I'm saying? If we if we do go up, maybe we'll like go to Canada after that
or like like into Canada, you know what I'm saying? Or whatever, but I'm curious to see it,
but not that much if I'm not doing something else. But yes, I'm sure you're going to have
pictures of video. So I hope you enjoy that for sure. But speaking of enjoying, we always enjoy
y'all. Got a short night tonight. Got a got a, you know, hard stop tonight. Got some things.
We got a bang out. But hey, great show. We'll take Jet Harrison. We'll we'll take him another
stuff. I received her. Come on down. Big fella. More Harrison's please. More styles. You
know, kids, please. More JJ Smith, Angelo, whoever, come play here at our house. That any last
words before we bang out on your divada. Yeah, no, Jet Harrison's that it's a good one. This is
one. Yeah, definitely got him on commitment watch. And we're going to be monitoring this one
closely. But yeah, this would be a great, a great get for our state and a great indication that
the the train keeps rolling along. Absolutely. All right. Man, I was just about the y'all are silly.
Everything he said, everything I learned about Canada, I learned from South Park and that
blame Canada's on popped in my head. Y'all are crazy. Yes. But that is hilarious. But anyway,
until next time, book high school family book our nation, we love you all. Also, check dev out
tonight. I believe dev is going tonight in a little bit. So hop on with dev in the meantime,
