Final hour in this Monday best and worst of the weekend. What you saw that you liked, you didn't like. Good morning. If you're watching on Peacock or streaming partner, stat of the day is always brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick show and Big Ten Saturday night. It's back next Saturday on NBC. And Peacock kicking off the season from the big house, New Mexico against number 14, Michigan. Here comes Saturday night. This next weekend is all about college football. Well, you start Thursday. There's going to be some games. Then you got Saturday, Saturday afternoon, Saturday evening. You got Sunday as well. You got Monday night. With North Carolina and Bill Belichick making their debut, this is the one weekend it feels like the NFL can't do anything about. And even if Micah Parsons were to sign on Saturday, it'd still be. Well, that would lead be the lead story, but you would still have all these games with college football. So college football will own the weekend, but only this weekend coming up. And then it turns it over to whether it wants to or not. The NFL starting the following week with the Eagles and Cowboys. Yes, Paulie. And the reminder that Texas Ohio State game is noon Eastern on Fox. That's going to come out of nowhere. Seaton's going to that game. I am. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Gonna be our correspondent there, I think. Yeah, sure. I could be the correspondent. I could call in, give the pre game, you know, vibe on Friday. Do you think you'll have the vibe already? We're here live on location. Okay. You know, I'll throw it out to you if you want to go out and be a reporter there at the Shoe Heck, yeah. Okay. All right. We will be going to the Notre Dame USC game later on in the fall and I think we're doing Formula one in Vegas. I don't know much about Formula One, but it feels like beautiful people show up and why shouldn't we? I don't know if we have Formula one closed. I'm going to say let's prepare for one late afternoon early evening because we have to go to bed early where we have Formula one outfits. Yes, Marvin, does that mean white slacks? I don't know what it means. I'd ask Paulie. He's in the apparel department. If you watch that F1 movie, people are just very sleek. Sleek, that'd be the word. But don't you have to be thin to be sleek. Yeah. We got time to work on that. Not that much time. Yes, Todd? Yeah, I care about if you don't have the body for it. How can you buy sleek or wear sleek clothes if you don't have a sleek body type? That's got to be kind of weird. Me, for example. I don't know what would be a sleek item I can get away with. I'm probably better off just wearing, like, an Elway jersey and Zubaz pants than to even try to dress like a F1 fan. That'd be even worse, I think. Thank you, Todd. Just got to accept, you know, your. Your situation. Yes. Thank you, Paul. Yes. Anything else you'd like to add? Maybe dress like you're going to a summer wedding, but then maybe cooler than that. I don't know. Okay. I might wear just a formula one, actually, like a fire suit. That would be cool. Just walk around and see if anybody, you know, recognizes me or thinks I'm a driver, you know, because they can't see your face in there. And they might not realize that, you know, they're. But he's an older driver. He's always got his turn signal on when he drives. See what I did with that, Todd? That was very cute. Thank you. I like that. All righty, Seaton, what's the poll question for the final hour of the program? Well, let me update you here on our extremely awkward poll questions that we've had going. Do you keep the numbers of people who have passed away on your phone? That Number is at 75% say yes. Is texting the number of someone who has died to say hello a healthy thing to do? 80% are saying no. That is not a healthy thing to do. Yeah, I think to each their own. Yes, that's what I said. Todd's the one who was trying to. I don't know. Shame. Yes, you were. Shame. I think for me, that's what prayer is for. We all talk to. You know, I talk to my dad, who passed away in 1991 all the time. I'm not gonna noted they have phones back then anyway where I can text him anyway. I wouldn't have a number for him on my phone, but I just think there's ways to communicate that doesn't have to involve technology. But you do talk to your dad. How is that different if I text my mom? I don't know. To me, that's like a prayer thing. Whether it's a synagogue or church or when you're on your knees by your Bed or even you're sitting in your car, whatever it is. To me, that's a little different than actually typing, you know, text and sending it. Just, you know. But if that makes you feel better, that's great. Thank you. You don't need my permission. Apparently I did for the first two hours of the program for a little while. But now that I think about it, you actually don't need my permission. Thank you. I needed some time to think about it, but you should probably do what you want to do. Regardless of my opinion. I think yes. Yes. I'm still grieving. I'm still mourning over the loss of my mind. I don't think one ever gets over these things, ever. Well, you thought I should get closure. That doesn't mean you get over it. You forget the person. But closure is different than closure is exactly getting over it. It's verbatim getting over it. There's ways to move on without, you know, sending a text on a cell phone, I guess is the way I'll leave it at that. Which most people in the psychiatric community I think would agree with me as well. You just can't. You just can't just surrender. No, you can't. You need closure. With your comments, we need. I'm the last person to talk. I got all kinds of issues. I've spoken with people. I've tried things to, you know, balance you out a little bit. So I'm the last person to comment on it, but I have an opinion, so I'm sharing. Thank you. John. Yes, Paul? Closure is a nice way of saying get over it. Yes. For me, I love it. It's not so much the. It's like the. When Todd takes a stance, it's the things he chooses to take a stance on. But you know what? I'm just sick of people texting people that are dead. Sick of that. Or writing a five page thing on Facebook and you're reading it, you think they're talking about like a grandparent or a brother or sister or a wife, and it turns out it was their guinea pig that they buried in the backyard. Come on, Todd. Todd, I. I don't do that on Facebook. I didn't say you this was about me. And then you extrapolated and then said that. You know, it's weird that if people do that, I don't know how I'm gonna go on. And then we had to flush Charlie down the toilet. No, this. This was just about me giving my opinion. I mentioned that I have numbers in my phone. What makes you feel good is what you should do. As long as it's within the rules of, you know, legality in the courts. Unless it's a hamster or guinea pig. Well, no, those. I'm just saying, I once read like this long thing and I'm like, oh my God, what happened to this person's mother or father? And it was like. And then I flushed Freddie down the toilet. You know, pet owners won't be bothered by this at all, Todd. Don't worry about that. Yes, Eaton. I think we should do a, like a fake account or I wish that Todd would post to his Facebook or something. This same type of in memoriam tribute to onion bagels at Brugers. Oh, because that's definitely something worth getting super upset about is you can't get a tuna sandwich on an onion bagel from Brugers at the drive thr an onion bagel or tuna. They got two strikes right there and I had to let the six year old girl know I didn't appreciate it. How do you not have tuna or the onion bagel? Tommy Fleetwood shot a 268. He won the Tour Championship. Prior to Sunday, he had 30 top five finishes without a victory. The most on the PGA Tour in the last 100 years. Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the program. Cal Raleigh now has 49 home runs. That's an all time record for catchers passing Salvador Perez, who did so in 2021. Shohei Otani hit a bomb and he was getting heckled by a Padre fan. Then he went over and acknowledged the heckler kind of had a little bit of fun at his expense. Let's sneak in a couple of phone calls. Rick Neuheisel, we'll talk some college football with him and former college coach, get his thoughts on who's going to win the sec, who's going to win the Big Ten. Bryce Underwood is the Michigan quarterback. He's a freshman and he was going to go to lsu. He was wrapped up. Then all of a sudden one of the richest men in the world, Larry Ellison, a Michigan grad, I think Dave Portnoy from Barstool Sports. Then all of a sudden they became the collective and he's getting paid a lot of money to go to Michigan. Here's the question and the answer from Bryce Underwood, Michigan's new quarterback. Give me a few things that you're most excited to get on the field and do this fall. Honestly, just a shock to where, you know, they seen a lot of freshers But I feel like nobody seen freshmen like me. So what, what are some of the goals you have for yourself? Honestly, do whatever it takes to get my team to wherever they want to be, which is the national championship, of course, being Ohio State, of other things as well. So however I could prepare my team like that, that's what I'm willing to do. Winning games, of course. All right, well, he better be a great freshman because you're getting paid. Think it's what, four years? 12 million. Does that sound about right? Yep. All right. Yeah. Seems like money well spent there. Because he was going to lsu. Yes. Marvin, what would make it worth it for the collective? Like, what does Bryce Underwood have to do? Beat Ohio State all four years or all three years? Three. Three out of four years would be nice. Any national titles? Sure. So. So one national title, three wins against Ohio State. He's worth it. Yeah, probably. You know, if you get a four year starter, I mean that's, that's rare. If he's going to be around for four years, maybe he's got bonuses in there. You win playoff games, national championship. I don't know how these contracts are kind of produced, but I would be putting bonuses in there. MO in Arizona. Mo. Best and worst of the weekend. Best of the morning. Dan Dennis. Best of the weekend Dodgers tying it up. Getting back in the lead in first place in NL West. The bats are waking up about a timely manner. My worst is I called last week, but my daughter's boyfriend showing up and all that good stuff. Well, he shows up again today, last Saturday, and the kid's so nice. I don't know how he tells the whole Beaver Cleaver thing. I just do not know how to not like the guy. I need some help here. Well, you can like him. Because I would rather that I like the person who's going to be with my daughter than not like him. And it comes down to trust. And does he respect her? Does he respect you? It's hard. And thank you for the phone call, Mom. I remember when my daughter daughters started dating, like when they're younger, you're thinking they're not going to be dating. In fact, I didn't let my daughters date until they were 16. I just like, we don't. We, we got to worry about school. We got other things to worry about. And I said, nope. Well, my daughters were so mad at me. And now, you know, years later, they laugh because they said you actually helped us because nobody wanted to date us. And we told our friends that we couldn't date Anybody. So it made it seem like, you know, we're not allowed to by our dad. So I actually gave them an excuse. But it's tough when they come over and, or they, they're going someplace and, and I, I wanted to, I wanted to do some background checking. And my wife goes, no, let's just, let's just trust, Trust Grace. I said, my daughter brought home a guy whose name was Squirrel, like a movie. And, and he was a really nice kid, but his name was Squirrel. And I, you know, you're just going, okay, she's dating a guy named Squirrel. Okay. You know, it's not about me. It's about her. I trust her. And you're like, oh, my gosh. Yes. Marvin, was your wife ever protective of your son going out there? Yes. Okay. Yes, yes. Italian mother with the son. Nobody's good at. Oh, my God, my daughters. That. Hey, you're going to take care of the daughters, okay? Yes. Todd, is it not okay for you to ask the gay son? I just was curious why they call you Squirrel. That would seem. Oh, no. I found out that he just, he was really good at climbing, so they called him Squirrel. Yeah, Kareem in Colorado. Hey, Kareem. Hey, what's going on, guys? Hey. Hey, listen, man, I, I, the question today, my mom, next week will be two years. She passed away and I still keep her number on my phone. Dan, I remember you had your mom on the show. I've heard Marvin talk about his mom and when she called in, and the three of them, man, they would be a riot. I, for me, it's just an opportunity for me to kind of remember her. And I just enjoy being able to look at my phone and see that number. Todd is out of pocket today, man. You guys gotta do something with him, man. He is on one. I actually like Todd. Todd, I like you, man, but today you're out of pocket, man. Yeah. Marvin, would you translate out of pocket to Todd? You're getting a little bit too reckless with your poll question and your critique of what Dan does with his deceased mother. Yes, thank you, Kareem. I would just like to reiterate that I have no problem with someone saving a, Saving the number on their phone. Just texting and so odd to me. Can we just stop? Okay, but if your dog dies, don't post anything about it on Facebook because Todd's gonna be scrolling at 3:30am oh, now a dog is open. I specifically mentioned guinea pig and goldfish. I'm not saying all animals. I'm saying, you know, goldfish what about a cat? That's. That's questionable territory. Yeah, I agree with that one, actually. Not a big cat guy. Yeah. But I write a five page thing, and it turns out it was a goldfish or something. Come on. Bill in New Hampshire. Hi, Bill. What's on your mind today? Hello, Dan. Best of the weekend. I'll go out on a limb and say, Tommy Fleetwood winning the FedEx Cup. Only thing that could have made it bester would be if we saw him on the 15th tee take out his phone and take a call from Todd Fritz looking to buck him, book him. And what makes that a little less preposterous, that scenario is my worst of the weekend, which was watching the Yankees versus the Sox last night. Espn putting an earpiece and a microphone on the second baseman and interviewing him each pitch right up to the till the wind up. I thought that having a second baseman to start, having a man on second base to start extra innings would be the most asinine thing I ever saw in Major League baseball. But now it's got a rival. All right. Well, thank you, Bill. Yeah. People are kind of split on this. Networks are trying to bring you closer to the action. Now we're on the field with somebody, they're trying to top each other, and then, you know, the NBA, do they bring you in the huddle? Like, how close do you let us come in? And, you know, there's a lot of voyeurism that goes on in sports. Like, we get to see things, and maybe, you know, we didn't get to see this before. Should we see this before? I really don't care about interviewing the manager, because if I'm a manager, I'm. I'm. I'm like Greg Popovich. I'll do it, but I don't want to do it. I don't want to tell you anything. But when you have somebody in the field, I do like the All Star game when they mic up somebody. When Clayton Kershaw was miked up, Bryce Harper miked up. I thought that was fun. That was great. I just got to be respectful to the guy who's playing the game. And you got to be in the game, and you can't be, like, worried about a question when all of a sudden, okay, wind up in the pitch, we stop talking. I. I think that's intrusive. Like, I don't. I don't like that at all. Be like, let me talk to Steph Curry as he goes to the free throw line. I don't. I mean, are we headed that way. Can I talk to Mahomes when he comes to the line of scrimmage? I just think you got to be careful with these things. But we are trying to get you closer. That's why when they have these microphones on the field, it's just to get you closer when you hear the play, when you hear the audible, when you like you're, you're there when you hear the collision. That's what they're trying to do. All right, let me take a break. Rick Neuheisel, always love talking to him and get his thoughts on college football this upcoming season. More phone calls as well.

Imagine that you're on an airplane and all of a sudden you hear this. Attention passengers. The pilot is having an emergency and we need someone, anyone to land this plane. Think you could do it? It turns out that nearly 50% of men think that they could land the plane with the help of air traffic control. And they're saying like, okay, pull this. Until this, pull that, turn this. It's just I can do my eyes closed. I'm Manny. I'm Noah, this is Devin. And on our new show, no Such Thing, we get to the bottom of questions like these. Join us as we talk to the leading expert on over confidence. Those who lack expertise lack the expertise they need to recognize that they lack expertise. And then as we try the whole thing out for real. Wait, what? Oh, that's the run, right? I'm looking at this thing. See, listen to no such thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. December 29, 1975, LaGuardia Airport. The holiday rush. Parents hauling luggage. Kids gripping their new Christmas toys. Then at 6:33pm everything changed. There's been a bombing at the TWA terminal. Apparently the explosion actually impelled metal glass. The injured were being loaded into ambulances. Just a chaotic, chaotic scene. In its wake, a new kind of enemy emerged. And it was here to stay. Terrorism, law and criminal justice system is back. In season two, we're turning our focus to a threat that hides in plain Sight that's harder to predict and even harder to stop. Listen to the new season of law and criminal justice System on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello, I'm John Lithgow. We choose to go to the moon.

Can you put it through Translate on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Columbia, Mike and El Centro. Best and worst of the weekend, Mike. Hey, good morning, Dan, Janet, everybody. Best of the weekend cross country meet this weekend in San Diego. First meet of the year, took 20 kids. 14 came home with medals. Worst of the weekend. Two and a half hours each way on the yellow dog. Sorry for the traffic noise. Walking home today. Can't do my run because my legs are shot. All right, well, thank you, Mike. Kind of worried. Sound like he was on the freeway there. Bill in Virginia. Hi, Bill. What's on your mind? Hey, first time caller, 59195. So. So I'm at work and I get a phone call. My dad's name pops up on my dash. He's been passed away for six months to a year. And it was one of my co workers up getting his phone number transferred to his phone that called me. So now I don't know what to do. Do I change the name? Do I leave dad's number in there? How do I do this? Oh, I don't know. I think I get with your friend and ask him if he could change the number. Well, at least it's your friend. It could be worse. It could be a total stranger has your dad's number, but thank you, Bill. Otto in Los Angeles. Hi, Otto. Hey, how you guys doing? I had a best and worst of the weekend. Sure. Worst of the weekend. My. My Braves losing two out of Three to the Mets. Further telling me that the season is over with. And the best. Yeah, I know. And the best. I live in LA now and I have the actual physical media copy of ESPN's Spike Lee's Kobe doing Work. I watched that last night and it was better than what I remember. It was just really fascinating seeing Kobe doing work as it. As it says in the title. Thank you, Otto. I think Kobe's birthday was Saturday. I believe so. What? He'd have been 47. Marvin. That sound right? Correct. Just saw the draftkings odds that it's Ohio State and Texas. They are the favorites to win the national championship. As we segue into Rick Newheisel, college football analyst for cbs, former college football coach. And Rick, great to see you again. You got Texas and Ohio State playing each other in week one. Normally you have those cupcakes that you ease into the season. So how do you get your team ready to go right away for Ohio State and Texas? Well, I don't think you have to even try. I think everybody understands the magnitude of the contest and the stage. That will be the city of Columbus and the shoe. This is going to be a monster game. What's fascinating about this game is that you've got two quarterbacks with relatives, relatively little experience. And I think the two coaches, Sark and Ryan, will basically play a very cat and mouse game. I think this is a low scoring game. Try to make sure that your quarterback's comfortable. Don't throw them to the wolves too early. And I think it's going to be a wonderful setting. Who's winning the Big Ten this year? You know, I, I think Penn State. If not now, when? Right. They've got so many things coming back. The two running backs are fantastic. They've got the most experienced quarter in the league. They've got a, you know, James Franklin has proven he can recruit. They're wonderful defenders. This, this. And they've got a schedule to beat the band, right? They've got three. The pre. It's basically preseason football for the first three games. I think it's Nevada, FIU and Villanova to start the season. Then a buy, then you get the whiteout game versus Oregon. So everything sets up for Penn State this year. What about the sec? You know, I'm going to go with lsu. I think Garrett Nussmeier is the real deal. We all remember both Joe Burrow and Jaden Daniels. I think this guy is going to have a heck of a game in Death Valley, although with a small D. I guess, given that it's not Baton Rouge. I think he and Club Nick are going to put on a show, but I think Nussmeier is going to come out on top. We have 12 teams now in a playoff, probably going to 14 or 16 at some point. But then the Big Ten leaks a proposal for 24 to 28 teams. Why did they leak that? To me it was almost to get people to understand 16 is the right number. Sometimes if you have 12 and people sitting there, maybe 12 is the right number and then you throw 24, 28 out somewhere. If compromise is where we're going to be, compromise now goes to 16. As I like to say, the answer is money. Now what was the question? I, I think we're, we're going to 16. The fact that no team with a buy last year won shows the lack of value of that buy. And I think 16 will be a great number for college football. Talking to Rick Neuheisel, CBS Sports college football analyst and former college football coach, we we're going to get to a number where we're going to jeopardize the regular season. Have or have we gotten to a number where we're jeopardizing the regular season? I understand the argument, but I just saw an analytic piece of data where K State and losing to Iowa State over there in Dublin now their playoff chances shrink to 13%. So remember, we've, we've if even at 16 the number is much smaller than any other sports league out there in terms of who gets to GR graduate to the playoffs. We have 137 teams in Division 1 football. So the facts of the matter are the regular season is still very, very exciting. These preseason games are testament to that. And then you get to that month in November with so many more teams are still in the in the hunt, it just gets overwhelming. And if we go to automatic qualifiers, which I think will be the answer, again with the premise that the answer is money, what was the question? We get to automatic qualifiers. You can only imagine the influx of more playoff games, much like the NBA where both the SEC and Big Ten will have play in games. SEC going to nine game schedule means, means that the coaches didn't get their way. I think Greg Sankey did his best to try to listen to him and see if it made sense. But when Oklahoma is selling seats at a post game press conference and Tennessee' selling advertising that's going to appear on the field, you can see the athletic directors are in need of money. And rather than keep shaking down the boosters, they're going. Let's go to that ninth conference game. Our television partners will pay more for it. It now creates an opportunity with the Big Ten to create some non conference games that will be paid for handsomely. It's, it's a money play and it's the right move. What did you think of the NCAA's punishment with Michigan? Much ado about nothing. The guy who is most guilty is still coaching in the NFL. Now had they done something to Jim Harbaugh and he had to sit a little bit in the NFL, that would have been something. But. And remember that's exactly what they did with Jim Trestle when he was it got his hand in the cookie jar with that tattoo gate thing. They made him sit as he was working for the Colts at the time. This is a, a big fine. 20 million bucks maybe even north of that. But at day's end it was worth it for the those who said Michigan versus the world. Would you have punished Harbaugh? I would have, yeah. If the, if the punishment could have gone to sit him down. Because that flew in the face of, of what we're all about in terms of fair play. And, and listen, I know I've always had a bent against Harbaugh, so I'm real kind of careful bias about it. But at day's end, if we really want to curtail this stuff, that's the punishment should have followed the criminal. Notre Dame doesn't have to join a conference now ever because all they have to do is go 10 and two and they're going to be in the playoffs because they're a brand and, and can get. Whether it's home games or can get the buy right. The, the seating thing changed. So Jack Swarbrick goes down as a hero. Not only did he fight for their independence, he also has got them in a chance where they can be part of the field on an annual basis and they can schedule around it. That will be the interesting thing. Who will schedule Notre Dame and can they freeze them out to force them into a, into a conference? That remains to be seen. But you know, they're playing usc, but that's going away. They're not playing Michigan. I mean who's they're going to play? Some ACC, you know, schedule teams. But that's right. 10 and 2 seems pretty reasonable every year for Notre Dame. I would agree. I would agree. And they've got a nice recruiting machinery. This is, this is a good thing for Notre Dame. But there will be some clamoring back and forth after a few Years of this. This is in its infancy. But after a few years, if they don't schedule up and it'll be interesting as to the Big Ten and the sec, how much they'll schedule them. You can see both of those conference involved with the Notre Dame right now. I was watching a little bit of the Browns with Chador Sanders and of course Caleb Williams last year. It feels like quarterbacks coming in from college are. They have bad habits, right? Hold on the ball, right? Sometimes they'll have their hips parallel to the line of scrimmage. Then they. They already take away one side of the field. They're only going to be locked in on right side. They get the ball out too, too slow. They try to make plays. You play the position, coach the position. What is it that you're seeing with these younger quarterbacks? Those two guys in particular are, you know, have watched the Patrick Mahomes extension, right. The When Mahomes breaks the. What was called in the huddle and now becomes a freelancer. He's been magnificent. And the oohs and ahs that follow those kind of plays have been. A lot of those two guys also were given green lights by their coaches. Lincoln Riley and. And Deion Sanders both said, you guys are the quarterback. So they've been allowed to just play this kind of backyard football. Johnny. Johnny football type of quarterback at the NFL because people don't. The people get open the same way they do in college, but they don't stay open. You have to let the ball go. You have to have anticipation, which means there has to be a metronome in your footwork and they don't possess it. Now, I saw Caleb Williams in that 38. I think they beat the Bills. 38 nothing. That was as good as I've ever seen him in terms of throwing on time and with rhythm. If once he gets there and Ben Johnson's working on that, he can be a great player. That will be the case with Shador as well. The question is, how many reps will Shador get now that he's in a four quarterback kind of menagerie there in Cleveland? I thought Dylan Gabriel looked good because he makes quick decisions. That's exactly. That's exactly who Dylan Gabriel is. He knows he has to get it out of his hand. He. He knows what the defense tells him. His feet. His feet are almost perfectly in place to throw with rhythm and he throws accurately. He's a bright guy. He's a good leader. That's why he had more starts in college football than anybody Previous. Andrew Luck is a gm. Like what role is, is that. And he's in the booth during the game. So. Oh, he's, he's a junkie, Dan. I mean, I, I got a ch to him. He loves this being back in it. As a matter of fact, it was precipitated by him going to the president at Stanford and saying, hey, here's my two cents on what's the program needs. He says, well, then why don't you run it? Basically, he's got the job. It'll be interesting to see if he can keep from becoming the head coach. If, if he, because he's got such a zest for it, he hired the guy, Frank Reich, who was the officiant in his wedding. And you know, so that this is a partnership and he's all over the practice field. The guy's having a blast. But they're going to have to average more than under 4 yards a pass attempt if they're going to be a player in the acc. Great to catch up with you. We'll talk to you. Always a blast, my friend. Thank you, bud. See ya. Rick Neuheisel, you know, he brings up something interesting about Andrew Luck. Now, I'm not reporting this. I can only tell you that a college football source just sent me a note and said don't be surprised if Andrew Luck is a head coach there at some point. And his point that he's making is that he's all in. Like, he's so, like he might need to have the control of being a coach, but Frank Reich might be that sort of band aid to Andrew Luck is learning. He's, he's a general manager. But I think learning to be a head coach, or maybe, maybe he doesn't want to do it. I'm only going by. And now Rick Neuheisel just said, hey, don't be surprised. And I had somebody when they realized we were having Andrew Luck on, they, my source said, hey, I wouldn't be surprised if he's a coach there at some point. Oh, we have NFL news. Let's, let's play Guess the NFL News. Marvin, I'll start with you. Trey Henderson signed a deal with the Bengals. All right. Todd, Micah Parsons and Jerry worked things out. Seaton. It involves neither of those guys, but somebody did something. Terry McLaurin has signed with the Commanders. The Commanders and Terry McLaurin have signed a three year extension worth $96 million, according to Ian Rapoport. We nailed that. You knew, Dan. Thank you, Satan. We did. Didn't I say three for a hundred million dollars. I think that was where I thought they would land. So it's 3 for 97, 3 for 96. Is the report okay. No mention of incentives. All right. Good, Good. I'm happy for the commanders and happy for Jaden Daniels and happy for Terry McLaurin. Yes, Todd, we can now wash our hands of this whole story. Okay, I see. Wash Washington. All right. Thank you, Todd. You're rallying. I don't know, but I think you're running out of time. Very little time. Yeah, you're running out of time. All right. So Terry McLaurin's in. That's good. All right.

Imagine that you're on an airplane and all of a sudden you hear this. Attention passengers. The pilot is having an emergency and we need someone, anyone to land this plane. Think you could do it? It turns out that nearly 50% of men think that they could land the plane with the help of air traffic control. And they're saying like, okay, pull this until this, pull that, turn this. It's just I can do my eyes closed. I'm Manny. I'm Noah, this is Devin. And on our new show no Such Thing, we get to the bottom of questions like these. Join us as we talk to the leading expert on overconfidence. Those who lack expertise lack the expertise they need to recognize that they lack expertise. And then as we try the whole thing out for real. Wait, what? Oh, that's the Runway. I'm looking at this thing. See, listen to no Such thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. December 29, 1975, LaGuardia Airport. The holiday rush. Parents hauling luggage. Kids gripping their new Christmas toys. Then at 6:33pm everything changed. There's been a bombing at the TWA terminal. Apparently the explosion actually impelled metal glass. The injured were being loaded into ambulances. Just a chaotic, chaotic scene. In its wake, a new kind of enemy emerged. And it was here to stay. Terrorism, Law and criminal justice system is back in season two. We're turning our focus to a threat that hides in plain sight that's harder to predict and even harder to stop. Listen to the new season of law and criminal justice System on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Foreign what if I could promise you you never had to listen to a condescending finance bro tell you how to manage your money again? Welcome to Brown Ambition. This is the hard part when you pay down those credit cards. If you haven't gotten to the bottom of why you were racking up credit or turning to credit cards, you may just recreate the same problem. A year from now when you do feel like you are bleeding from these high interest rates, I would start shopping for a debt consolidation loan, starting with your local credit union. Shopping around online looking for some online lenders because they tend to have fewer fees and be more affordable. Listen, I am not here to judge. It is so expensive in these streets. I 100% can see how in just a few months you can have this much credit card debt and it weighs on you. It's really easy to just like stick your head in the sand. It's nice and dark in the sand. Even if it's scary, it's not going to go away just because you're avoiding it. And in fact it makes sense. It even worse for more judgment free money advice, listen to Brown ambition on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcasts. Last call for phone calls what we learn what's in store tomorrow this day in sports history. I was kind of surprised and a tad embarrassed that the question was asked to Kevin Stefanski, the Browns head coach. If that the Browns were they sabotaging Shador Sanders? They actually ask him a question about are the Browns trying to sabotage Shador Sanders? The Browns are treating Shador Sanders the way 5th round draft picks are treated. You're lucky to get reps. You might be with the first team. He was fortunate everybody was injured his first game. Let him just play and see if he can play. Like there are so many cheerleaders in the media. Stop with this and and there's also haters out there as well. But just let the kid play. He's not ready right now. I think he has. I think he has the ability. His, his pocket presence isn't very good and he holds on to the ball and you got your first read. Take your first read. You're not a Colorado, you're not at Jackson State. You can't get away with these things. And even at Colorado he couldn't get away with these things. A lot of times when he was getting sacked and everybody talked about how bad the offensive line is, well, he played a part in that. And he's not good at the line of scrimmage right now Dylan Gabriel is better than Shador Sanders right now. But Dylan Gabriel gets the ball out. He, he's up there making a quick decision. But this now they're like offensive linemen weren't blocking for him on purpose. Somebody suggested. Really? I get mind boggling where you you're going, okay, he's a fifth round draft pick. Tell me another fifth round draft pick that's getting the attention or the opportunity that he's getting or that people want that person to get. It doesn't happen. It hasn't happened. It's just Shador Sanders. That's why they took Dylan Gabriel in the third round, because they thought that he was better than Shador Sanders. But this sabotaging him. Oh, he's not getting reps. He's a fifth round draft pick. He's being treated that way. I don't think anybody was going, can you believe Tom Brady's not getting any reps in practice? No, he was being treated like the 199th pick. I hope he gets an opportunity. I hope that he can. One way or another we're going to find out because this playing quarterback is the great meritocracy. What did you do for me? Are you any good? It's not like the defense is going to say, you know what, we're going to let him get some completions here. We're going to help out the kid a little bit here. But now we're sabotaging him. Mike in Iowa. Hi, Mike. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. First time, long time, Best of the weekend. Beer snake in Dublin. Check it out and work through the weekend. Is that Iowa State actually won? Come on. Thank you, Mike. Give me the college football schedule next weekend, Paul. Just some of the highlights. It's fantastic. Texas, Ohio State, Syracuse, Tennessee. You got Marshall, Georgia, Bama, Florida State. You have. Yeah, I got later in the day you got LSU at Clemson. That's fantastic. Real spicy. The night game, late game. I know you will like Northern Arizona at Arizona State. Then on Sunday in the afternoon, Virginia Tech versus South Carolina and the nightcap, Notre Dame versus Miami. And then you got Monday night. Yes, Monday night. Is North Carolina. Is Bill's girlfriend on the sidelines? I don't think she's visible to camera in the building. Will they treat her the way they did Andrew Luck when he was up in the booth? Will they have a Jordan camera? Yes. Marvin, if she's there, yes. Okay, this day in sports history, I'm only going to give you one. Since you brought up Andrew Luck 6 years ago yesterday, the news was broken that he was retiring from the NFL. Today, six years ago was his press conference. Okay, that's wild. All right. On this date, 1986, Mark McGuire hit his first home run. Also 1985, Dwight Gooden beat the Padres to become the youngest pitcher to win 20 games. He was just under 21 years of age. I got to experience that first half. And in fact, I would go on my days off to Shea Stadium if I knew he was going to pitch. If it was on the weekends, he, he pitched against Dennis Martinez. And I remember going with Gary Miller, who I worked with at ESPN and cnn, and we sat behind home plate and that was the thing. Watch. He only threw two pitches. Fastball, breaking ball. But he was, he was phenomenal. Yes. Mark, are the 86 Mets in the same category as the 85 Bears as far as they're super celebrated? And you ask how come they didn't win more? Yes, absolutely. That Mets team had a lot of talent, a lot of characters, but Bears winning one, I mean, they're kind of similar from the standpoint of a lot of characters and still living off that one. One win that one championship. Rhonda in Texas. Hi, Rhonda. Hi, Dan. And thank you. Sharing my best. And the worst, it's actually the same. The best was Tommy Fleetwood finally winning his first championship after his 164th start. And the worst was the nervous wait for it to finally happen, with even the announcer saying, going into the final hole with a three stroke lead should be enough for a win. But maybe not. I know, I kept thinking, it's three. Yeah, that's enough. He's a professional golfer. Yeah, that was great. It was great to see. And also the relief of his wife because she has no control over this. He's at least out there playing and she's got to be the sounding board. She's got to be somebody who, you know, comforts him after all of these close losses. And sometimes you forget about that. The. The wherewithal that, you know, the toll that it takes on those who are watching you trying to succeed. Final Results of the poll question seat, no counter. Yeah, man, this turned into a real doozy. Who saw Monday going this way? I know I sure didn't. Do you keep the numbers of people who have passed away in your phone? 74% say yes. We're still hovering at about 80% though that say texting the number of someone who has died to say hello. They would say that is not a healthy thing to do. All right, but to each their own. Oh, yeah, to each their own. Not hurting anybody other than the person who might be receiving that text because they have that person's old phone number. That might be irritating. Yeah, I get that. Just say, hey, love you. Thinking of you. And all of a sudden it's a guy who's like, who is this? Yeah. Oops, I'm sorry, What? Let's go around the room. Todd, what'd you learn today? It's pronounced Hawaii, not Hawaii. Okay, well, according to Paul, it's Hawaii. And them and them. But then don't you have to become one of like. You have to be one of them to call it Hawaii? Yeah. Okay. Satan, what'd you learn today? Hopefully Todd's Tuesday goes better than this Monday. Can't go any worse. Marvin, Todd was out of pocket today. Out of pocket. Paul, would you learn?

Date: August 25, 2025
Main Theme:
The final hour dives deep into college football’s new season, NIL impacts (notably at Michigan), playoff expansion, and key matchups like Ohio State vs Texas. Dan and the Danettes also debate grief rituals, the quirks of parental dating policies, mic’ing up athletes, and the rise of QBs (including Shedeur Sanders’ NFL treatment). CBS analyst Rick Neuheisel joins for an insider’s take on the upcoming college football season, and the crew tackles hot poll questions and notable sports news.
College Football Takes Over:
Dan sets the stage for the college football-dominant weekend, joking that the NFL “can’t do anything about it” even if big news happens.

Humor—Dress Codes & Outfits:
Self-deprecating banter about who can “pull off” sleek clothes versus sticking with jerseys and Zubaz pants.
Poll Results:
Dan and Todd Debate Texting the Deceased:
Humor—Pet Tributes online:

Discussion—Underwood’s NIL windfall:
Best/Worst of the Weekend:
Listener Kareem in Colorado:
Shares the emotional side of keeping his late mother’s number, softens debate around grief and technology.
Light-hearted Debates:
The crew expands on Todd’s critiques of pet tributes, leading to a humorous distinction between cats and goldfish.
Mic’d Up Athletes:
Phone call critique of MLB interviewing players mid-game—Dan says it’s fun for the All-Star Game but “intrusive” in real games.
Ohio State–Texas Week 1:
Both teams start with inexperienced QBs; expect conservative game plans and a low-scoring “cat and mouse” battle.
Big Ten Favorites:
Rick picks Penn State as this year’s breakout, due to depth, easiest early schedule, and proven recruiting.
SEC Pick:
LSU, based on emerging QB Garrett Nussmeier:
Playoff Expansion:
On rumors of 24–28 team playoff:
Will Larger Playoffs Hurt the Regular Season?
Rick doesn’t think so, referencing data showing most teams’ playoff hopes die early, keeping the season meaningful.
Automatic Qualifiers Coming:
Predicts “play-in” games like the NBA. Money is the key driver behind these changes.
SEC 9-Game Conference Schedule:
Move fueled by TV revenue, not tradition, Rick says it’s ultimately the right play.
NCAA/Michigan Penalties—Harbaugh Discussion:
Notre Dame’s Unique Position:
They can now all but guarantee a playoff spot staying independent if they go 10-2, making conference membership unnecessary.
On College QBs Jumping to the NFL:
Rick and Dan agree many arrive with “bad habits”: holding the ball, slow reads, relying on Mahomes-like improvisation without fundamentals, notably referencing Caleb Williams and Shedeur Sanders.
Shedeur Sanders in Cleveland:
Dylan Gabriel Praised:
Cited as a model for quick reads and proper anticipation.
Andrew Luck—GM Trajectory:
Dan’s Follow-up on Luck:
College sources speculate Luck could eventually move to head coach at Stanford.

Historical Nuggets:
Dan notes the anniversary of Andrew Luck’s NFL retirement; celebrates Dwight Gooden’s historic run as a young pitcher.
Final Results of Polls:
“Do you keep numbers of people who have passed away in your phone?”
Wrap-Up Banter:
“To each their own...not hurting anybody unless the person who now has that old number gets your message!”
On expanding the College Football Playoff:
“As I like to say, the answer is money. Now what was the question?” (40:46, Rick Neuheisel)
On texting the deceased:
“Just texting is so odd to me. Can we just stop?” (29:10, Todd Fritz)
Dan on Shedeur Sanders’ NFL opportunity:
“It’s just mindboggling...he’s a fifth-round draft pick. Tell me another fifth-round draft pick that’s getting the attention or opportunity that he’s getting.” (57:10, Dan)
Listener to Todd:
“Todd, I like you, but today you’re out of pocket, man.” (28:44, Kareem)
This hour offers a lively, comprehensive look at the kickoff of college football’s new era: NIL money shaping roster moves, playoff expansion debates, and the quirks of tradition, fan expectations, and media access. It balances serious analysis—especially via Rick Neuheisel—with humor and sincerity about loss, family, and the oddities that make sports (and life) a shared experience. For listeners, you’ll get a mix of behind-the-scenes football chatter, culture talk, and the wry, authentic vibe that defines The Dan Patrick Show.
