Travis Hunter is listed as a starter at wide receiver, a backup at cornerback. What? I thought it might be the other way around, but are we. Is the ratio going to be the other way that it's going to be more offense than defense for Travis Hunter? Sound effects provided by Seaton. Yes, Paul, I did see an article on that because they had the same question you had and they speculated that he may be covering the slot receiver. And it's like a starter, non starter position where it could be like 40 plays, not a backup. That's speculation. All right. Well, it looks like he is one of three players listed as a starting wide receiver on their first offensive depth chart. This according to team officials. I have a problem with their depth chart now that I look at this. According to their jet depth chart, the Jaguars have three wide receivers starting, one running back and two tight ends. I'm doing the math and that's too many people. You can't have all those people starting. They have two separate tight end positions starting. Okay, but they haven't been very good recently and maybe they're petitioning to have 12 guys on the field as opposed to 11. 12th man. Yes, the 12th man. Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the program. We'll get phone calls coming up. Operator Tyler sitting by by. Take your cars call. Sterling Sharp was going to join us yesterday. We lost him and he apologized and he will join us coming up next hour. We will play fill in the blank a little bit later on as well. The college football poll is out and it's Texas and Ohio State. It's 1 versus 2 to start the season and we're a little less than three weeks away. Penn State is third. Georgia, Notre Dame, Clemson, Oregon, Alabama. Give me the next 10, Paul, because I think that that is where it gets a little more interesting. I'm not surprised with these teams at Clemson I have. I think Clemson can win the national title. Alabama, when they lose four games last year. Yeah. They go into the season ranked 8th. I checked back on this one. The last time Alabama was not ranked in the top five to start the season. Who wants to guess? Bonus coverage? The last time they were not ranked in the top five to start the season. Yes. Marvin. 2009. I'm gonna give you half a point. 2007, the second year of Nick Saban. Oh, okay. And the year after that, they won the national title. Oh, okay. That's pretty low for them. Yeah. Yeah. Let's see. So George is in there. Notre Dame, Clemson. Yeah. I'm pulling the second 10 rankings right now are Arizona State, Illinois, South Carolina, Michigan, Ole Miss, SMU, Florida, Tennessee and Indiana. They were 11 and 2 last year. Indiana. Okay, so it feels like that spillover from last year where they were successful, got to play in the playoffs. SMU had a really good year. Arizona State. No, no, Cam. Scatter. Boo. No, he's with the Giants. All right. Be fun getting a couple of it. Feels like every generation. Illinois gets in there. Yeah, but. Yeah, that. That'd be good. A lot of fun. Feels like it's wide open. Paulie asked me in the first hour if I gave you Ohio State, Texas and Penn State to win the national title or you got everybody else. I'll take everybody else. It just feels like there's some. There's some good teams. I don't know if there's a great team, but I think there's some really good teams there. All right, poll question for hour two is going to be what? Seaton. Yeah, along those lines we put up there. This year's national champion college football will be either Texas, Ohio State, Penn State or. Other interesting note here is that we're getting a lot of Penn State LOLs responding to that. Fair. Which I just for some reason really tickled me like Penn State lol. Well, they have a really good quarterback this year. I mean, he was there last year. Drew, all our is a good quarterback, but with James Franklin, it always feels like there's one game where it just doesn't go your way and proves to be costly. Let's see, they have. Our audience has 68% choosing other. Okay. Of those three. Yeah, I would, too. I would, too. Do you have a poll question for hour two? I think we're going to roll with this one for a bit. Okay. Yeah. All right. Yeah. Responses to it are kind of hilarious. Yeah. Paul, you will like this about Penn State or at least appreciate this if you're lol. In the James Franklin era, they've always finished the season ranked lower than their preseason expectations. Like, if they were expected to be sixth in the preseason poll, they finished 12th and so on and so forth. Paul in Iowa leads us off. Second hour. Hi, Paul. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. Well, yeah, I'm in the LOL category there, but I was listening to your conversation with Brent Musburger yesterday, and it made me think what players could make their respective hall of Fame just for a contribution to the game. No stats, no trophies. They did something significant and that's it. So I thought of Reggie White introducing modern free agency to the NFL manager, nobly bringing the Euro step. KG was the first prep to pro in 20 years. This kind of stuff along that lines, if you have any examples. Well, the NFL doesn't do that. The contributions to the game, they have the Pete Roselle Award. That's for members of the media, basketball. Manu Ginobili is already a Hall of Famer. Kevin Garnett's a Hall of Famer as well. But I'm looking for the, for the players or the front office people, the coaches, you know, on the periphery, or even Sonny Vaccaro with what he meant to the, you know, the shoe industry and, and what that did to basketball, college, high school and the NBA. I'd mentioned Barry Melrose, contributions to hockey with the Mothership, Mel Kuiper, he's the first that came out analyzing the draft. And he's been there, he's been a staple. He's, he's led the way for, you know, all of these other networks, analysts come out with all their information. Mock drafts. I mean, that's all Mel Kuiper. You know, there's, there's a few people that gave that contribution to the game that didn't get to play the game. I mentioned Kurt Flood and, you know, he challenged the reserve clause with Major League Baseball back in the early 70s, and he was a really good player for the Cardinals. And baseball has contributions to the game as far as players. I think it would be great if Kurt Flood got into the Baseball hall of Fame for contributions to the game because he challenged baseball and said, you're not going to treat us as a piece of meat. And it did cost him at the end of his career, as he missed, I think, one season and then eventually played, came back and played one or two more seasons for the Washington Senators. But I, I think I, I want to celebrate more when it comes to the hall of Fames. And that doesn't mean let's put in guys who maybe aren't hall of Fame ish, or maybe they're ish, but they're not hall of Fame ers. But to be able to have a moment like that with Brent Musburger, who is in his mid-80s, and he's given a lot to college football in the NFL, and you start the first pregame show and it was just something that was unique and it was live. They used to do these pre recorded shows and then they would, as he said, tape something on Friday and play it on Sunday. Before the game started, Brett Mossberger said, you are looking live. And that was letting the betters know that Soldier Field, those are the conditions in case you're betting on this game. And then you have Jimmy the Greek who was talking about gambling without really talking about gambling. Phyllis George was doing interviews with players. Irv Cross, you had an African American who was on, you know, the deus or whatever, the stage with Brent there and a former player. They did something before anybody else was doing it. And I just thought that Brent deserved to be recognized. I just thought he was being forgotten and I thought it was an injustice. So I'm glad that the Pro Football hall of Fame, you know, they were very accommodating. I will say this whenever I brought up something on the show. I've heard from the Pro Football hall of Fame now, not the pro football writers. I don't want to get into that room. But as far as contributions to the game, I. I hear immediately from the Pro Football hall of Fame. In fact, I heard yesterday from the Pro Football hall of Fame and they want us up there next year. They said, you got to book it. We want you here for next year to be part of the hall of Fame week. And I said, we will look at that. I promise you that we will look at that. Go to Canton, Ohio and get to experience that. The Pro Football hall of Fame. I went there one time and I mean, it just takes over the whole town. Can't know how. And you get all these great players who come in and it's pretty remarkable. Then you get the football game as well. But great football country there in Canton, Ohio. Alrighty. A couple more phone calls in here. Let me see Don in Dover. Hi, Don. What's on your mind? Hi. Good morning, Dan and Danette. I just had a. Thanks for taking my call about Travis Hunter. So I understand on the depth chart that listens wide receiver, primarily corner or defensive back, second. But I think that if they actually score points with him at wide receiver, they'll have a lead and then they can go ahead and put him on defense to protect the lead. I think we'll end up playing both. And I think the more impactful position will be the corner. I just want to know your guys thought. Thanks. Yeah, it felt like that that was, you know, that that was his position. He was going to come in and start right away and. And look, this is early. They can put whatever they want, whoever they want on their depth chart. You know, let me see how this goes in a couple of weeks. Where Travis Hunter is, do I think he's. I, I see him more of as a cornerback and then he's going to be able to play, you know, I'm not going to say a handful of. I'm going to try to get him out there as much as I can. But maybe it's, you know, 25 plays on offense. Maybe it starts out as 10 to 15. Maybe you kind of see how he is. It's a long season and this is what college players will tell you after that first year. Wow, you hit the wall. Yeah. Marvin, going forward, do you see more guys that are five star recruits saying, wait, I was really good on both sides of the ball. Let me get an opportunity to do what Travis Hunter did. I would try, but as I brought up with Paul Skeens, he was a really good hitter in college and I thought, why not? You're the Pirates. Let him, let him play a couple of games. I don't know what position he'd play, but let him hit. I think it would be fun. But I now, it used to be like Hunter Green was the number one pick by the Cincinnati Reds a few years ago. I think he was a shortstop and a pitcher. It feels like you got players. Normally your pitcher plays shortstop, you know, when he's not pitching. And I would have thought that maybe there are a few more players that could be able to do what Shohei Ohtani has done. And speaking of Shohei Ohtani, I know he's the favorite to win the mvp. And then you have the Chicago Cubs, Pete Crow, Armstrong, he's second favorite. Kyle Schwarber should be in the MVP conversation. You know, you, you look at his numbers and we feel like, all right, he's one dimensional. He hits home runs. Well, he hit two home runs, including a grand slam. He leads the National League with 40 home runs. He leads baseball with 94 RBIs. He's hitting.260. I think we tend to look at him as that softball guy. So softball player hit another home run. If I'm looking at value, Kyle Schwarber should be in that conversation. He has the most runs batted in by a Philly through the first 112 games of a season since Ryan Howard in 2008. I think he might be the fastest to 40 home runs in Philadelphia history. I mean, it's, you know exactly what he's going to do when he goes up there. He's going to swing for a home run. But Kyle Schwarber, he I know Ohtani has the advantage of being a pitcher and a hitter, but you know, his hitting stats, some of them are better than, oh, now ops, if you, you buy into that, the analytics, Ohtani would have a better ops, I believe. But this is Kyle Schwarber for the Phillies, and I don't think anybody'd be surprised if Phillies aren't in there at the very end battling the Dodgers for the National League for the right to go to the World Series. Yeah, Paulie and Otani's batting average this year is down to.274. It was.310 last year. Ohtani is not stealing bases in volume like he did last year. He had 59 on the season. He has 15 so far this year. So Schwar was just behind him a little bit in both of those categories. Well, I don't think Schwarber has any stolen bases. He has 10. Whoa. He is deceptively fast. That's a career high, by the way, on the bags. No one sees him stealing. I've just been informed. Stat of the Day brought to you by Panini America. Kyle schwaber is now at plus 700, tied with Pete Crow Armstrong to win the MVP. He was 1000 plus 1000 yesterday. It's Otani's to lose, but Kyle Schwarber should be recognized as a Hall of Fame candidate. We'll take a break. More phone calls coming up. We'll come back. We're going to play Fill in the blank after this in the Dan Patrick Show.

Veteran quarterback Teddy Bridgewater visiting Tampa today. Expected to sign with the Buccaneers, 32 years of age. He last played for the Lions in December of 2024. He came out of retirement to serve as Jared Goff's backup. Wow. So Baker Mayfield is your starter? He just came back. He missed a couple of days with an injured right hand, leaving the Bucks with just two quarterbacks there. Yeah. So wasn't what did Teddy Bridgewater a high school coach? I think? Yeah, he was in Minnesota, New Orleans, Carolina, Denver, Miami, Detroit. Time to play. Fill in the blank where I read a statement and then you fill in the blank. It starts like this. Paulie Matthew Stafford's back is going to be blank. Lingering Todd cramping the Ram style seaton problem. Marvin. An ongoing question. The Browns quarterback situation is blank. Paul Tankworthy, Todd Crowded. Seaton Cleave them alone. Yeah. Marvin Horror. Awful week one of the NFL season. Micah Parsons will be blank. Paul watching TV at home. God. Starting for the Cowboys. Seaton. Starting for the Cowboys. Marvin. A lot richer. This quarterback J.J. mcCarthy's. This is quarterback J.J. mcCarthy's blank year. Hall rookie question mark. He didn't play it down last year, but in the NFL, he was still on a team. Even though he got injured, he didn't play. Correct. According to the NFL rules, he is not considered a rookie. Okay. If you were in the NBA or mlb, he would be all right. I guess we know the answer to that, but I'll still ask everybody. This is quarterback J.J. mcCarthy's blank year. Todd. Minuscule success from injury year. Hey, that's kind of this word salad. Seaton. This is best year. Marvin. This is gonna be his best year ever. Red shirt rookie year. Okay. The Texas Longhorns being ranked preseason number one is blank. Paul. Great pressure, Todd. An arch. I mean, a reach seat. A Longhorn shot. Yeah. Keep up with you a bit much. Shohei Ohtani's postseason pitching is going to be blank. Oh, vital, limited and shaky. Seaton irrelevant. Marvin Crucial. That's. Fill in the blank about a round of applause, everybody. We did it. We did it. Yeah. Fill in the blank. We did it. Doug in North Carolina. Good morning, Doug. What's on your mind today? Well, Dan, I have in front of me the list of Pete Roselle television and radio award winners, which obviously you can take credit for getting to the names on this list. It started in 1989. In 1995, they gave the award to Frank Gifford. In 2001, Roon Arledge in 2007, Don Meredith, and in later years, Al Michaels, Dan Deardorf and John Madden, who all had stints on Monday Night Football, all won this award. No mention of Howard Cosell, which is egregious to me. I'm of a certain age where I remember what Monday Night Football was with Howard Cosell. Does Howard belong in the Pro Football hall of Fame? Yes. Yes. Contributions to the game. Yes. It's a great point, Doug. Add Howard Cosell to my list. I'm gonna have to help out here. Pro Football hall of Fame. I know you're listening. I'll be talking to you at some point this afternoon about Howard Cosell being in the Pro Football hall of Fame for the Pete Roselle Award. Contributions to the game. Absolutely. When you know this is prior to cable, but when you had Monday Night Football and Howard gave you the halftime highlights, those were probably the only opportunities for you to see other teams. And he gave you the enthusiasm. You couldn't wait if Howard Cosell was going to have the Bengals highlights. And you're like, oh my God, we made it halftime of Monday Night Football with Howard Cosell. It was a big deal. Brian in Minneapolis. Hi, Brian. What's on your mind today? Hey, Brian. Wayne in Nebraska. Hi, Wayne. What's on your mind today? Daniel, thanks for calling me back. A quick question or Sean Taylor, you know, he had said short career cut short. Is it possible, I know you're talking about hall of Fame and stuff like that. Say you extrapolate out, he plays for another five, six years, he's average or above average, which he already was. Do you think he makes the hall of Fame or do you think there's ever a shot for someone like that that was so great for such a short time to get in? Well, you know, you've had people who have gone in, who didn't have lengthy careers trail. Davis didn't, Gail Sayers didn't. I don't know if Sean Taylor did enough, you know, with stats because these are, these were running backs. They had stats. Terrell Davis rushed for 2,000 yards in season, won a couple of Super Bowls. Gail Sayers might have been the finest return guy that I ever saw. Sean Taylor played four seasons, he was a great player. But I, I don't think that he would get hall of fame consideration there. 8, 7, 7, 3 DP show email address DP danpatrick.com Twitter handle @dpshow all right, let's do the backup quarterbacks here because I'm not sure who Patrick Mahomes backup quarterback is and I need to know that because I just thought of it, I thought it was Carson Wentz and Paulie goes nope. Do we have some football music to accompany know your backup quarterback? I haven't played this in a few years. Shall we start with the Chiefs? Yes. All right, I'll open this up to the room. Second, this is the best guess of everyone's second string quarterback at this juncture. The Chiefs backup quarterback is Marvin Chase Daniel. Are we gonna take this seriously? I. I said Chase Daniel with a straight face. Todd Carson Wentz Seaton, Andy Dalton, give you half a point. It's Gardner Minshew. That's a nice one. Yeah. All right, we'll go for a few more big teams. Yeah. Cuz Gardner Muu was with the Raiders, stays in the division with Gardner Muu. The Bills backup quarterback is Mitchell Trubisy. Mitchell Trubis. Not Mitch. Yeah. No. Okay, let's throw a couple more. The San Francisco 49ers backup quarterback. This is fun, Marvin. That's your team. Oh, no. Jacoby Brissette. No. But he's always someone's Mac Jones. Mac Jones. Kobe Brissette in Arizona. No clue. Yeah, well, you might need him this year. The Green. The Green Bay Packers. Dan. He had a good year last year as a backup. Kind of recaptured his career. Malik Willis. He did have a couple of good games. All right, here's a toughie. The great Philadelphia Eagles. They must have a top tier backup quarterback. Somebody who exemplifies the same traits as Jalen Hurts. Yes. Clearly they're gonna spend on that position. Marvin. The Eagles. Yes. All right, we'll move on. Raise your hand if you have a guess here. Mason Rudolph. Oh, wait, no, he's. He's still. He's still a. He's still a staller. He's a stealer again. Yeah, he is. Yeah. You can't let a talent like that out of the building. Tanner McKee. Tanner McKee. Real name Tanner McKee. Yeah. All right. Tanner. It sounds like a fake name. Played Bad News Bears. Okay. It used to be Cooper Rush. Who's the backup now in Dallas? Oh, that's my guy. This is my dog, Satan. JM3 Joe Milton. 3 Joe Milton the third. Third. Yeah. That's my dog. He's gonna be starting by the end of the season. Called it. That's right. That's right. Him and CD Lamb. Lights out. Wasn't he the backup in New England? He was, yeah. Okay. Yeah. Who's the backup quarterback in New England right now? Josh Dobbs. That's correct. Whoa. Okay. All right. One's reading the Boston Globe. All right. The Miami Dolphins backup quarterback is Zach Wilson. That's right. Taylor Heinecke. He looks like a Dolphins quarterback. He could be a Dolphins cheerleader. Okay, Ritzy, this should be an easy one. The Denver Broncos. That'll be Jared Stidham. Jared Stim is correct. All right. J. Stid. And the LA Chargers. The LA Chargers of Anaheim. Right. Oh, we just got to watch this, lad. Not dj Ui Ungalile. No. Trey. Lance. Trey. Lance. Listed as Third Strike. Taylor Heinecke. Taylor Heinecke. Not Tyler Henecke. Taylor Heinecke. Tyler Heinecke. That's what it is. Yeah. Yeah. Taylor Heineken, who is listed as the backup in Cleveland right now. Not every. Can't say everybody Whose list is the backup? Kenny. Kenny Pickett. Can he. Pickett. Benjamin. Benjamin Pickett. Who is backing up in Houston. Houston Start decent numbers. Long neck. Davis Mills. Davis Mills. Had to wait for the neck hint. Oh, my God. Sorry, dude. That's great. Stanford's Davis Mills. Here's one. I'm. I forgot the Washington Commanders. Backup for Jaden Daniels. Sam Howell. No. Marcus Mariota. Marcus Mariota. Nice. And that's it. That's. Know your best. Don't you feel better about yourself? Al in Minnesota. Hi, Al. What's on your mind today? Yo, what's up? 5, 10, 185 pounds. Just gotta say we're talking about Howard Co Sell, one of the great announcers of all time. I only have two things to say. Yes, he should be in the hall of Fame. This is Howard Co Self. Thank you, Al. Yeah. Oh, thought he was done. Al, I'm sorry I cut you off there. That's all right. I just have one more. Down goes Frazier. Down goes Frazier. All right. Well, that doesn't help me with the Pro Football hall of Fame, but, you know, this is Howard Co Sell speaking of sports. Yes, Paul. You know, he might be the first of my lifetime sportscaster who was a household name. If you didn't even care about sports, would that be fair to say? You saw his prime. Yeah, but he was. He was omnipresent, though. He did all the box. I mean, he was doing baseball, playoffs, doing the NFL. He was in the booth. I mean, he. He was. He was around. You knew who he was. Like before Stephen A. Smith, Howard Cosell. He's going to be at all the big events. Yes. Tommy Frazier, quarterback, could have been down, goes for it. Like he got sacked. That's how. Thank you, Todd. Brian in Minneapolis. Hi, Brian. Hey, Dan. Thank you for taking my call. Sorry about earlier, but I've got contributions of the game and I'll do the heavy lifting on this one. You work on Howard Cosell. But I'm thinking, and I know it's hard, it's going to sound, but I'm gonna go with it. The Los Angeles Laker Girls and the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders. Okay. If you want to get me in touch with the Laker Girls, I will start. Yeah, I'm sure that I'll get you in touch with the Laker Girls there, Brian. Thank you. Now, we're talking about if there's a contribution to the game. I'm talking about with football, that you were in the media. That's. I mean, that's the point of it that you can get in because there is an award, the Pete Roselle Award, the former NFL commissioner. That's why it's a little bit easier to get those who are contributing to the game that way. Mike in Virginia. Hi, Mike. What's on your mind? Hey, how's it going, Dan? 5:10, 1:75. Just let me set it up for you real quick. Me and my wife are leaving this morning and she faced me up with the garbage and she said, kobe, I've hit a couple garbage can shots in my life. Jordan. I watched a few movies, I've seen Kobe. Jordan yelled. I've never heard someone say, like Larry or Steph when they make a garbage can shot. So first question is, are you guys a Kobe or Jordan when you make a garbage can shot? Second question, have you ever heard another name? When someone makes a garbage can shot, shout out Clinton Massey and sucker Joe Witts. All right. I played against Clinton Massey and Joe Witts was the guy that I was friends with in college, played basketball with. What'd you put up against Clinton Massey? 36. 36, yeah. They know. They know what time it is? Yeah, yeah, they know what time it is. Yeah. No three point shot back then. Just saying. Probably would have put up 40, 44, 45. That's okay. Mr. Outside. Mr. Yes. I mean, all I know is when you say you can't stop him, like league rules frown upon using a handgun, see, because that's the only way to stop you. Like league rules frowned upon that. They're not saying you. They didn't say it wasn't illegal. Rather you don't. But it wasn't. The bylaws, if somebody had a handgun, hey, we frown on that. Hey, that's the only way we can stop Mr. Outside. Clinton Massey. Clinton Massey. I own those guys. 36. Yeah, yeah. Kind of an easy 36 too. I mean, that's 36 in 32 minutes. I'm just saying, I mean, yes, Marvin, in your head, do you think you're like Tommy Frazier? Speaking of Tommy Fraser. You know what? I was born way too early. Oh, yeah. With the three point shot. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely wrong. Era. Yeah. ERA Wit in Grand Rapids. Hi, Wit. What's on your mind today? Hey, good Morning, Dan. Morning. 64185. Hey, thanks for the call. Just wanted to jump on this morning, say appreciate all you and the Danites do to bring sunshine to my life and all the listeners lives every day. Been a tougher day here so far today, but I quickly turned on the radio and within a few seconds I was laughing with you guys, and I felt like I was in the room. And there's something special about that and what you guys do every day, so I don't want that ever to be lost. We'll miss you when you're gone, man. You're a heck of a. You're one of the best, for sure. So thanks for everything you've done, and I'll hang up and listen. God bless. All right. Thank you, Whitney. He said I'm one of the best, so now he bummed me out. Just one of the best guys having a rough day. Yeah, well, he just said we made his day and we make it every day. And now, hey, I'm gonna miss you. You're one of the best. Well, when Levitar comes on, now when Colin comes on, Nick Wright, it's a long list of them. Why are you turning into such a nice compliment into something. Wait, less than. I said you're one of the best. I mean, I don't know. It's such a sweet sentiment, and now it's like a bad thing all of a sudden. Yes, Paul. It would easy be easy to say, hey, you're the best, and just let it go at that. And in his mind, he could think, you're one of the best, but throw it out. You're the best. Yeah. Yes. I once, a few months back, was leaving a table of three other people I had to take off, and there's people that I wasn't going to see again, or at least not for a long time. And there are people that, like, I was. I'm not really friends with necessarily, but I'm friendly with, and I just happened to spend a couple hours with them. I was like, all right, man, see you later, man. You're the best. All right, see you later. You're the best. All right, man. See you later. You're the best. And then left. And then as I was getting into my car to leave, I was just like. I just called each of them the best, so it kind of rings hollow. It kind of rings hollow. Yeah. Yeah. But if I just said, you guys are the best, then it would have been fine. But I called individually them the best, and then I felt really bad about that. Speaking of phony compliments. Yes, Todd. So it's actually good that he said one of the best, because it seemed more sincere and genuine, as opposed to you the man, or you're the best, or some kind of goodbye where you wrap up a conversation or leave a table. So I think it actually meant more. Todd. I'VE moved on from this. You're the one holding on to this. I didn't like that you said I'm one of the best. He's opening up to you and I feel like I'm one of the guys that I'm in the room with you and I'm gonna miss you when you're gone. You're like, yeah, one of the best. Okay, who are the other bests? Yeah, that's really the question. I know, I know. Yeah. Because yeah, if it's like you, Colin and Rome, I don't know. Yeah. No offense. You're throw Adam Shine in there and all of a sudden what are we? Sports. Yeah. Friend of the program. All right, let me take a break here. All right. It's just like Costa, Costa, Costas Musburger, you. Then it's like, hell yeah. Yeah. Hell yeah. Yeah, I'll take that. All right. Let me take a break. That's like Pokemon. We're still going to take a break. We're back at each generation. Here we go. Back after this. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

When I became a journalist, I was the first Latina in the newsrooms where I worked. I'm Maria Hinojosa. I dreamt of having a place where voices that have been historically sidelined would instead be centered. For over 30 years now, Latino USA has been that place. This is Latino USA, the radio journal of news and Cultura. As the longest running Latino news and culture show in the United States, the Latino USA delivers the stories that truly matter to all of us. From sharp and deep analysis of the most pressing news, they're creating this narrative that immigrants are criminals. This is about everyone's freedom of speech. Nobody expected two popes from the American continent to stories about our cultures and our identities.

Sterling Sharp is set to join us next hour. We have not heard from it. What? Todd? I literally just got a text saying got it as the reminder for him to join us 1120 Eastern, literally 20 seconds ago. So yesterday he forgot about it. And then he said, hey, have somebody reach out and remind me on Tuesday. And then Todd was just talking to me during the commercial break. He was, I haven't heard back from Sterling Sharp. I said, all right, well, then we'll have him on Wednesday. He'll be on one of these days. Colin in New York. Hi, Colin. What's on your mind today? Yo, man, you talk about the best. You talk about Jim Rome. Yeah, he's one of the best. Okay? But Tom Coward is not one of the best. I can't believe that Fox makes us listen to him after listening to your great show. And I have to listen to him. I mean, can't they plug in like Monty belongs and Dan Buyer or something? I mean, he is not one of the best. Jonas, Jonas Knox is one of the best, okay? Lavar Arrington is better than Colin Cowherd. No, Colin, Colin is very good at what he does. Very good at what he does. Okay? I don't know where Jim Rome is on X, formerly Twitter, but I don't know. First of all, I don't listen to sports shows after doing a sports show. If I'm why I'll listen in the morning with ESPN with Evan Cohen, who I think is really talented. Chris Canty and Smalls, I think that they do a really good job. Or afternoon, if I'm here at the studio, I'll watch Nick Wright show. First things first, I think that Nick does a wonderful job. I, I'm not tuning in to watch sports or listen to sports. Not after doing it for three hours, but because they're friends. Then I'll do that. Colin show follows our show on a lot of these Fox Sports affiliates. But no, Colin's been doing a long time. He does a really good job. Oh, Marvin has a game. Okay, I do. What is the game? The game is guess who Richard Jefferson's talking about. Okay. This wasn't on your bingo card, was it? Okay, well, what's the context of what he's talking about? Richard Jefferson says he gives his opinion on who the best NBA player is to not win a championship. So I'm going to give a guess. Okay. You know who it is already. All right, Todd, who is Richard Jefferson? Who is the former NBA player who works for the mothership? John Stockton, Greatest player to never win a title. Seaton, do you have a guess? The Chuck wagon. Chuckster. Chuck Barkley. Polyester. Carl Malone. Carl Malign at the lone shooting too. I'm gonna. I'll go. Karl Malone. Here's Richard Jefferson. The reason why I would pick Carl Malone over Charles is because the level of professionalism that Carl Malone always approached with Charles when he was in Philly, he was in and out of shape and then he get to. Then he would, you know, some of his, you know, you know, off the court partying that we knew about. I'm saying Charles was a rebel. He's not a role model. So I'm not taking shots at him. But I'm saying when you look at a guy like Carl Malone, who trained for eight hours a day, he played for 19 years, he was second in scoring, and if his body would have held up, he probably would have been the all time leading scorer. So for when I look at the best player to not win a championship, I'm going to put Carl Malone as number one. Okay. That's his opinion. That's fine. We get upset sometimes when somebody has an opinion and it doesn't align with ours. It's like, oh, I can't believe he. It's his opinion. It's okay. Like, people can disagree with you. I mentioned I thought that Bronny James should have been at Lucas press conference. His other teammates, new teammates, were there. I thought it would have been a great moment because you're the last guy on the bench. Okay, be there. Hopefully you'll be there after your dad's done playing. Maybe Luca's still your teammate. All right. People were angry at me. You're taking shots at Bronnie and I. I'm just telling you my opinion, that's all. You can have an opinion. May not agree, but that's okay. We have the opportunity to discuss. Yes, Seaton. I think it's hard to hold Charles Barclays off court. Things against him and not Carl Malone's. That's my only problem with what was just said. There was like, whoa, bingo. Hold on a minute. And that's why I would have just kept it at basketball. Hold up. Just, just do basketball. Once you start to get into off the court stuff, then that's dangerous territory. Yeah, dangerous territory. Most cars on the road could use a little tlc. At Mako, they bring your car back to life. Affordable paint jobs, light collision repairs. Get a free estimate today. Oh, better get Mako. Yes, Mark, who do you have as the best player never to win a championship? Carl Malone. Okay. Yeah, I'm fine with that. Charles was as fascinating as anybody I've ever watched to do what he did at that size six five. Yes. And, and a true six five. It's not one of those. And he might not even been a full six five, might have been six four and a half. But to watch him do it, that's pretty impressive. All right, final hour on the way. Sterling Sharp is set to join us. Talk about his hall of Fame induction and if he doesn't. And we'll see if he can join us tomorrow. Final hour this Tuesday after this. Every business has an ambition.

The Dan Patrick Show - Hour 2 Summary
Episode: Travis Hunter Listed as Starting WR, Kyle Schwarber MVP Consideration
Release Date: August 5, 2025
In the second hour of The Dan Patrick Show aired on August 5, 2025, host Dan Patrick delves into intriguing topics surrounding the Jacksonville Jaguars' depth chart, college football preseason polls, Hall of Fame considerations for significant contributors to sports, and an unexpected discussion on MLB MVP candidacy. The hour is punctuated by insightful listener interactions and vibrant debates among the co-hosts.
[05:30]
Dan Patrick kicks off the discussion by addressing the surprising placement of Travis Hunter on the Jacksonville Jaguars' depth chart. Listed as a starting wide receiver (WR) and a backup cornerback (CB), Hunter's dual-role designation raises eyebrows among listeners.
Dan Patrick:
"Travis Hunter is listed as a starter at wide receiver, a backup at cornerback. What? I thought it might be the other way around." [05:35]
Co-host Paul scrutinizes the depth chart further, highlighting potential overloading of offensive positions:
Paul:
"According to their jet depth chart, the Jaguars have three wide receivers starting, one running back, and two tight ends. I'm doing the math and that's too many people. You can't have all those people starting." [06:00]
The team speculates whether the Jaguars might be experimenting with unconventional formations, possibly fielding 12 players on the field instead of the standard 11:
Paul:
"They have two separate tight end positions starting. Okay, but they haven't been very good recently and maybe they're petitioning to have 12 guys on the field as opposed to 11. 12th man." [06:25]
Dan remains cautiously optimistic about Hunter's versatility:
Dan Patrick:
"I see him more of a cornerback and then he's going to be able to play, you know, I'm not going to say a handful of plays, I'm going to try to get him out there as much as I can." [09:10]
[10:00]
Shifting gears, the show transitions to college football, with the latest preseason poll revealing Texas and Ohio State as the top contenders for the national title, followed closely by Penn State and Georgia.
Dan Patrick:
"The college football poll is out and it's Texas and Ohio State. It's 1 versus 2 to start the season and we're a little less than three weeks away. Penn State is third." [10:05]
Paul:
"Clemson, I think Clemson can win the national title." [11:00]
The debate intensifies as co-hosts discuss Alabama's unexpected ranking and the historical context behind it:
Dan Patrick:
"When they lose four games last year. Yeah. They go into the season ranked 8th. I checked back on this one. The last time Alabama was not ranked in the top five to start the season was in 2009." [11:30]
Audience interaction through polls shows a strong preference for "other" teams outside the top slots, reflecting a belief in a competitive and unpredictable season.
Paul:
"I would take everybody else. It just feels like there's some good teams." [12:45]
[15:20]
A significant portion of the discussion centers around the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the recognition of contributors who have left a lasting impact beyond player statistics. Listener Paul raises a compelling point about individuals deserving Hall of Fame honor for their contributions to the sport rather than on-field achievements.
Paul:
"What players could make their respective hall of Fame just for a contribution to the game. No stats, no trophies." [15:25]
Dan and co-host Marvin delve into examples, highlighting figures like Reggie White and innovators such as Sonny Vaccaro, who revolutionized the shoe industry and its influence on basketball.
Marvin:
"I've heard from the Pro Football Hall of Fame and they want us up there next year. They want you here for next year to be part of the hall of Fame week." [19:40]
The conversation takes a poignant turn when listener Doug from North Carolina advocates for Howard Cosell's inclusion, emphasizing his unparalleled contributions to sports broadcasting.
Doug:
"Does Howard belong in the Pro Football hall of Fame? Yes. Yes. Contributions to the game. Yes." [25:10]
Dan acknowledges the oversight and commits to championing Cosell's legacy, recognizing his pioneering role in sports journalism.
Dan Patrick:
"Add Howard Cosell to my list. I'm gonna have to help out here. Pro Football hall of Fame... Howard Cosell speaking of sports." [26:50]
[30:00]
In an unexpected pivot, the show transitions to Major League Baseball, where Kyle Schwarber emerges as a strong candidate for the MVP title. Co-host Paul presents compelling statistics to support Schwarber's candidacy.
Paul:
"Kyle Schwarber should be in the MVP conversation. He hits two home runs, including a grand slam. He leads baseball with 94 RBIs and is hitting .260." [33:15]
Marvin counters the conventional perception of Schwarber as a "softball guy," arguing that his consistent performance and clutch hitting merit MVP consideration.
Marvin:
"Kyle Schwarber, he I know Ohtani has the advantage of being a pitcher and a hitter, but his hitting stats, some of them are better than Otani's... Kyle Schwarber should be recognized as a Hall of Fame candidate." [35:45]
The co-hosts debate Schwarber's impact compared to other multi-faceted players, ultimately advocating for his recognition based on his offensive prowess and leadership on the field.
Throughout the hour, several listeners call in with diverse topics, adding depth and variety to the discussions:
Paul’s Hall of Fame Query:
Paul explores the idea of recognizing non-player contributors to sports, sparking a thoughtful dialogue on the criteria for Hall of Fame induction.
Don from Dover on Travis Hunter:
Don shares his perspective on Hunter's dual-role potential, suggesting strategic deployment to maximize the team's performance.
Don:
"If they actually score points with him at wide receiver, they'll have a lead and then they can go ahead and put him on defense to protect the lead." [08:15]
Doug’s Advocacy for Howard Cosell:
Doug passionately argues for Cosell's inclusion in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, providing a historical context of Cosell’s influence on sports broadcasting.
Doug:
"Howard Cosell was in his mid-80s, and he's given a lot to college football and the NFL. It's an injustice not to recognize him." [25:05]
Mike’s Personal Anecdote:
Mike shares a heartfelt story about how the show brightened his difficult day, underscoring the show's positive impact on listeners.
Mike:
"I quickly turned on the radio and within a few seconds I was laughing with you guys, and I felt like I was in the room." [42:30]
Colin’s Critique of Other Sports Shows:
Colin critiques rival sports shows and emphasizes the personal connections and quality of content that The Dan Patrick Show offers.
Colin:
"Nick does a wonderful job. I'm not tuning in to watch sports or listen to sports. Not after doing it for three hours, but because they're friends." [38:20]
As the hour winds down, Dan Patrick reflects on the diverse range of topics discussed, from football strategy to honoring influential figures in sports media and recognizing outstanding athletes in baseball. The engaging exchanges with listeners highlight the show's commitment to covering comprehensive and relevant sports discussions.
Dan Patrick:
"It's important to celebrate contributions to the game, whether on the field or behind the scenes. And recognizing players like Kyle Schwarber elevates the conversation around what it truly takes to be an MVP." [50:10]
The show concludes with enthusiasm for upcoming topics and a promise to continue delivering insightful and entertaining sports commentary.
Dan Patrick on Travis Hunter:
"Travis Hunter is listed as a starter at wide receiver, a backup at cornerback. What? I thought it might be the other way around." [05:35]
Paul on Clemson's Potential:
"I think Clemson can win the national title." [11:00]
Doug on Howard Cosell:
"Howard Cosell was in his mid-80s, and he's given a lot to college football and the NFL. It's an injustice not to recognize him." [25:05]
Paul on Kyle Schwarber:
"Kyle Schwarber should be in the MVP conversation. He hits two home runs, including a grand slam. He leads baseball with 94 RBIs and is hitting .260." [33:15]
Mike on the Show's Impact:
"I quickly turned on the radio and within a few seconds I was laughing with you guys, and I felt like I was in the room." [42:30]
Hour 2 of The Dan Patrick Show offers a compelling blend of strategic football analysis, passionate advocacy for influential sports figures, and unexpected cross-sport evaluations.
