their Kohler Wisconsin foundry, watching molten iron poured, a mammal applied by hand, and

craftsmanship. Now, I'm proud to lend my staff of approval to my favorite Kohler cast iron

folks. Nine Apple folks like me, spreeker.com, hit us up there. Book our scoop family,
book our nation was good. I see y'all in the chat going hard per usual suspects. We're going
dive right into it. Going to talk about a generational five-star to a house state. A house state,
excuse me, phenom. It's a familiar name. And there's been some updates with this prospect. We're
going to talk about it as well. And so remember, when you send us one of our super chats,
it helps to go towards the 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've
got some stuff coming up. What's going on? Yeah, just kind of sad that I'll house that to make
the sweet 16. Yeah. But you know, 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 you know,
the Ohio State brands never been hotter. And you know, they announced today, Jackson's fifth
in Jigba is now the highest paid wide receiver in the history of the NFL. I think it 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, whenever 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 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 or an extra 100,000 there in LA. All money, you know,
developed your culture over cash. And you know, 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 the highest pay
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're 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, 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
scoos 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 generation 05 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, or
a whole new Moses. I mean, like, hey, mom and dad, you shouldn't name me a 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,
junior. 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 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're heralded than
brother Marvin. I mean, because I mean, Marvin came in and, I mean, I'm not saying he wasn't
regarded a good writer here, but it wasn't like, oh, wow, like this guy's the next, you know,
the next big thing. Franky Cowell McCord 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 those 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, all 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 I 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,
if you can possibly make a knock on a guy as great as Marvin Harrison was at Ohio State, I mean,
you know, sure, he hasn't gone to the NFL and completely, you know, torn it up, but, you know,
12 or 14 TDs in two years, you know, 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, you know, jet just looks twitchy
year 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 hailed like stuff like that to me
is just like, OK, 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 seventy five.
Marve was like 16 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.
On and off the field. It's a great program.

Because, look, honestly, sometimes these family member brothers or whatever don't end up going
to some scoos because they like them. 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
heartline, Nevada, your thoughts. Well, yeah, I think that'd be a great endorsement of kind of
for life after heartline that you could land, you know, a receiver of this category. But, you know,
if you're jet Harrison, you'd have to, 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 guys 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, literally the best one
of the bunch of JJ Smith is the next one. So I, I don't, I mean, you never like to say that
anything's a mortal 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 of that 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, Martin, 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 into brother's footstep. You just don't want to go the same
place you're 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,
counter to what you think. He didn't really have a great time at I was like, 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,
to double down on being a buck, I 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? 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. Clair, 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 Jett Harrison ends up a butt guy.
I agree. You said it. I didn't even have to say that and 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 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 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 also 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 sure it
ty, you know, it's surety that your offensive scheme is going to be first rate. It's surety
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
kind of 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 whatever that is? Of course, but I don't want that to be soon because again, Ryan Day represents
just a guarantee of greatness for Iowa State and that you can't really say that about a lot of
coaches and college football. Yep, preach, but you know, you'll still have people who want them
fired, 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 Jamir 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 in a 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, in the Columbus area, to a high school called
Big Wanda. 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 Wanda back,
we scrimmaged them in basketball. We scrimmaged them. My junior year, senior year. Anyway,
we played at Big Wanda and they weren'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 Wanda,
but then some others told me they've been really good in recent years and you know,
they got a good program and stuff like that. But anyway, the point is, Big Wanda 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 state. I know there were some who were 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 state. 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 laying it all out for you 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
house 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 and I have, but they're not taking a backseat. 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 dealing with saying that they're going to 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 going to believe
recruit, he's one of the guys, you know, leave recruiting on Jet Harrison. So it's like, you know,
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 a house
that 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 David Gabriel, George's.

It's 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 Billboard at years recently that
20 billion won. 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 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 for an office near you.
Like fan, like he is a stud and barring something crazy happening. He's going to be a book guy.
So imagine the speed on the outside with that type of NFL back and just the talent we got coming in.
I guess what I'm saying, y'all, is I always preach this. And so does Nevada. Appreciate what you have.
Like we are recession proof as you can get. We don't stop. We lose. I'm telling you, 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 no knock on a heartline. It's just we're going to do whatever we
need to do to stay on top. You know what I'm saying? A higher, you know, whatever. And so just
depreciated. 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 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 what I'm talking about? That's a how state.
It's like our haters is like, aren't they ever go fall off? And we'd like no. And then we hit
you with the bars. I mean, that's just how it is. And so appreciate what we got y'all in this
football program because we are on the heck of a run as far as consistency and just being elite.
And obviously we all want more natties. But three in my lifetime is more than a lot of programs
can say Nevada. Yeah. And and you know, you sent me into David Gabriel, 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 anyway. 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,
will football continue to be played? It's 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 kid is a big time player. And you know, I feel like you need that. You need
that at the running back position to really be, you know, like last year, if I had a criticism
of our of our team last year, and you know, it's, and again, I know I'm spoiled from having
Trey Henderson and Quintran 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 cruised,
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 most certainly be better,
Isaiah West will be 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 up some things that trigger some thoughts. I had a discussion with some buddies
on mine about this. And we'll get to Super Jazz. We're going to have a a harder stop tonight
in 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 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 guy's chip in. So with that said,
Bo Jackson, a true freshman had to be the guy. And 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. I'm
pictured 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 down field. 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 trade 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 senior year, you know, 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 it from that. So to me, that's the big thing.
So would have loved to see him in the spring, see how bouncing and springy 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 and high school, man,
he was crazy. You know, I mean, he was just running away from guy. So I absolutely believe he can do
it. Now, I think I thought he was really close last year. And if you pick some, even just a little
bit of speed, a little bit of explosiveness, you know, 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 abandoned coming off an injury that 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 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 Rogers. Turbo Rogers 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. And again, 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, I, you know, turbo's 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 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 a, he's absolutely a wild
grinning again at it. 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 something out of turbo Rogers.
Oh, man, it, I mean, to me, I feel like he needs to, I mean, like, listen, you didn't play last
year, you've been in, 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, the 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
and listen, this is just Ohio weather. This is what it is. Well, some foos, men of it, Jay Uso here from
the WWE. When it's just me between matches, it's day one ish. And that means it's Chumba time.
With hundreds of Casino style games and new titles arriving weekly, there's always something
fresh to try at Chumba Casino. The daily booze make it even more fun. And have me about to get
them all during my downtime, ready for a fun way to chill out and enjoy a few minutes for yourself.

today? It's 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 Billboard years recently that said 20 billion won. 20 billion
is 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 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,

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, 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 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 up 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
banging out of there Friday or Saturday, but it's not Saturday. It's the national championships
for hockey for high school and my daughter's playing. And so it depends on whether they win. If
they keep winning, we'll be there. If they lose, I could be out of there earlier. So hopefully,
we're still playing on Sunday. That would be, 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 something 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, shout out to Scoot family, the Axe, a master, B Moses,
and Hilzinski Nova Scotia Buck. That's right. I'll post it in my, um, go ahead. I'm Buffalo,
I'm Buffalo Buck now. I'm Buffalo Buck. To be fair, um, he didn't, he posted this before you
announced you were going to Buffalo. Yeah. This is so. That's right. So you know, you know, he'll be
on it. He would have been on that immediately. You know what I'm saying? He probably on it right now.
He probably sent it one right now. As we speak, our guy's stilly bat. Um, it's funny. Um, I was talking
to my wife. I was like, I posted my ex video and she's like, um, she 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, uh, well, yeah, it's, it's, I want to even ask
your wife learn how to throw the axe before you did or whatever it is, but I just, I just,
I just can't get over the fact that like, I mean, I know axones are thing and stuff, but like,
axones and drinking it, like, like, there's just got to be like so many accidents and stuff.
If people get hurt bowling, if you can get hurt bowling, you can sure that get hurt accidentally,
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 win is called Smash Park for you Columbus people,
it's been Westerville. Bro, it's actually dope. Nevada, they got, like, uh, they got pickle ball courts,
they've got shuffleboard. You ever heard of the, uh, 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 where someone had ever done. It was candle pin, candle pin bowling or duck pin bowling.
Oh, I guess duck pins 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. Um, they had an arcade, um, 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,
I was like, man, you got these axed on 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, that duck to mold those, those small bowling balls. I tell you, kills, kills
your arm. I tell you, but your arm will be hanging down by the next thing of it, like, oh, man,
this really everything, that just wrecked, wrecked your arm. It can be deceptive because
they're, they're heavier than they look for sure. Um, but yeah, it was fun. It was good stuff.
All right. Um, let me see what I'll tell you. Still be bad. Thanks for
wondering. Okay, a little bit low, but see, he was, he was typing as soon as we were talking,
typing. I love it, man. All right, Gio did thanks for the five. With Jett Harrison wanting to be a
Buckeye with other elite Y receiver targets, favoring us, it shows you how good a Y receiver
coach Cortez Hankins is. Kudos to Ryan Day. Now, uh, Gio did, we were told he was a bum and he
didn't develop people with blood, blood, blood, blood, blood. That's what we heard from people.
But anyway, no, Hankins, again, Ryan Day and his receiver room, um, all was like, yeah,
that's him. We'll take him. And so, um, 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
Jett 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, it's like 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, B? I think it would go viral. I mean, um, that's, it'll be our last video,
you know, um, 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 people that I went over to,
went over to barrel with the Nevada Buckle in 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 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 gonna, we're gonna go this year type stuff.
And we just didn't end up going, um, 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 out 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, uh, like into Canada, you know, I'm saying and, um, 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, um, 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 to
bang out. But hey, great show. We'll take Jet Harrison. We'll, we'll take him another
stuff. I receive a 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. Stay any last words
before we bang out of here, Devata. Yeah, no, Jet Harrison's, that's, it's a good one. This is one,
you know, definitely we 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, and a great indication
that the, uh, the train keeps rolling along. Absolutely. All right, man, I was just about the,
y'all are silly. Um, everything, he said, everything I learned about Canada, I learned from
South Park and that blame Canada, saw him pop to my head. Y'all are crazy. Um, yes. Um, 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, peace and go bucks.
