Non-Apple folks like me. Spreaker.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 usual suspects. We're going to dive
right into it. Going to talk about a generation or 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 out. What's going on?
Yeah, just kind of sad that Ohio State to make the sweet 16. But you know, hey, we're in
this spring football. Lots of great things going on. And some recruiting stuff really starting to
pick up for the black eyes 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 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? We're going to make in the NFL. You're not 500 million dollars.
Something before he's gone. 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 NAAL money, you know, developed your culture over cash.
And you know, great day for the black guys with Jackson's fifth in Jigba and a great calling card for
Ohio State recruiting in general. Yep. Reach in 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 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 bright 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
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'd 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 about that. 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.
Holy Moses. Holy Moses. Yeah, what I heard. 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 and Harrison senior and the brother of the great
butt guy, 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, confidence is high
that jet Harrison's going to be a butt guy. 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
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 is 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 going on 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 make
him a creative player, that's a creative player name. And so I'm going to pull his highlights up,
but you're right. People forget Marvin Harrison was like a four star, a 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, 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, he, you know, jet just
looks twitchier 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.
You know, 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 Jigba 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, a 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, it's 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 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.

Because look, honestly, sometimes these these family member brothers or whatever don't
end up going to some to some schools 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 heart line, Nevada, your thoughts. Well, yeah, I think there'd be a great endorsement
of kind of for life after heart line that you could land, you know, a receiver of this 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. Don't have to say for you not to want to come here. You know,
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 Jig, but Garrett Wilson, Crystal Lobby, Marvin Harris, and
Noah, I mean, just go on and on and on and on and on down the list. And you got the best one
of literally the best one of the bunch in J.J. Smith is the next one. So 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
a 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 Sr.
was obviously a very cerebral guy, Hall of Famer. You know, Martin, you know, Marvin Harrison,
um, you know, Jr. Certainly has has out surpassed his high school recruiting ranking in terms of
where he was drafted and 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 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, um, 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
yet Harrison's gonna 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. Uh, 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 bakai, 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,
um, you know, why receiver coach is gone?
No, 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,
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 Ryan Day is certainly the, he's the common denominator. 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
with my 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
lose in 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 want 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 and in Hooper and, you know,
Jim Trustle and Urban Meyer. Yeah, you've gone on both some great coaches at 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, you know, it's sure it, 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, you're getting this 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
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, 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 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 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, in the Columbus area to a high school called Big Warner. Now, like I said,
I said this before, I don't, I 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 something that have went up. Big Warner back, we scrimmaged him in basketball.
We scrimmaged them. My junior year, senior year. Anyway, we played at Big Warner. And they
went 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 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 milestones 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 wide receiver. We're
crew and train, Nevada. Well, yeah. No, 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 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 focus kids where they're
putting out real money. I mean, JD Smith is making real money that you're doing the same as they
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 Jimmy or 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 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 Ohio State to other people as well, to me, that really speaks volumes.
Yeah, man, I'm getting excited to think about these future kids because I told you, I'm a huge

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? Yeah. 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 appreciate it. I'm telling
him about it. I thought about a Jay Z song. It's called the Medley intro. And before he starts
rapping and he's like mocking people asking like, well, he ever fall off. He comes in like no.
And then he starts spitting. He starts rapping his verse for those who know it's classic.
You know what I'm talking about? That's Ohio State. It's like our haters is like,
are 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 a 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 in about
it. Yeah. And, and, you know, you sent me into David Gabriel, George, like, that's a guy I
said this before, but I bear repeating. I know I say get excited about every recruit. And then I
don't get sad about any way, 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 could go somewhere else, will we survive? Yes,
will football continue to be played most certainly. But we've led this recruitment for a long time.
We've, you know, 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, I feel like you,
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, 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
projects, it'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 Bojack,
you know, Bo will most certainly be better, Isaiah Wesley, better Jacobson 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 David Gabriel George is most certainly that guy. And I want to see
him in starlight gray. You brought up some things that trigger some thoughts. I had a discussion
with some buddies of mine 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
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 need
it 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, 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 lanes 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 his 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 spring is. But again, you're nursing a little bit of 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. I mean, he was crazy. You know, he was just running away from guy. So I absolutely
believe he can do it. 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, a little bit back,
you're 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 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 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
Superchettes, 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 what 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 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 wild. And again, as I mentioned before, Legend Bay, another wild card of his
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
amount 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 Bo are not practicing. So you got to step up and lead and do your thing and carve out
some playing time. I mean, come on, man, let's do it. I want to see it. All right, real quick,

years recently that said that $20 billion won. $20 billion in a sane 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. That's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open

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 Asia's goal is 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 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 well, it's not Saturday. It's it's the national
championships for hockey for for high school and my daughter's playing. And so it depends on
if 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 there 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 someone like that, but still going
to be low chili, chili 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 acts, master B Moses
and Helsinki Nova Scotia buck. That's right. I'll post in my own. Go ahead. I'm Buffalo. I'm Buffalo
Buck now. Buffalo Buffalo to be fair. Um, 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 that immediately. You know what I'm saying? He probably on it right now. He probably
sending 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 ax 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? Cause she
did. She had, she went, she done ax throwing 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. Well, yeah, it's, it's, I want to even ask her your wife learn
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 axon is a thing and stuff. But like axon and drinking it, like,
like, there's just got to be like so many accidents and stuff. And if people get hurt,
bowling, if you're gonna get hurt, bowling, you can sure as I get hurt, accident, 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, I thought about that
too, because the place we went is called Smash Park for you Columbus people. It's been west of
you bro. It's actually dope. And about it, they got like, uh, they got pickleball courts.
They've got shuffleboard. You ever heard of the, uh, 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. 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 or 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.
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, they got like some secret security behind the door
waiting to jump out or something. Good, good, good insurance. And, and I tell you what,
you know, go out there and do that, that duck pin bowling those, those small bowling balls.
I tell you, kills, kills your arm. I tell you, like your arm will be hanging down by the next
thing of it. Like, oh, man, that's really everything. That just wrecks retro. It can be deceptive
because they're, they're heavier than they look, uh, 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, below, 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 Y receiver coach Cortez
Hankins is kudos to Ryan Day. Now, uh, Geo did we were told he was a bum and he didn't develop
people and bleep bleep bleep bleep bleep bleep bleep bleep. 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, 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, 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 went over to,
they were to barrel with the battle 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 going to, we're going to 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, 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 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 them another
stuff. I receiver. 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. They any last words
before we bang out of here, Nevada. Yeah, no, Jet Harrison's that it's a good one. This is one,
you know, 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, 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
part in that blame Canada song popped in 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
