I did. I heard you loud and clear.

Yeah, I don't think so. I don't think so either. I don't think that's that much money for an owner if he really wants. And the problem is I don't know of an owner right now in the league that's looking for a head coach that is sitting there going, OK, these options are not good enough. Let's go call up Bill Belichick.

If you guys remember on the show we talked about right before Bill took that job at UNC. The oddest of connections between Bill Belichick and the New York Jets came to light, where right before he took the UNC job, he was talking to them about possibly meeting and having a conversation.

And you guys know the history with Belichick and the New York Jets, and he spent the whole

season on the Manning cast, on every podcast that we know, taking shots at Woody Johnson, taking shots at the organization, a guy that resigned after a day when he was named the head coach there. So the fact that he communicated with Mike Tannenbaum, who's running that Jets search team to see if maybe he could get in there, tells me that is really where his heart has been.

He was willing to go work for an owner he doesn't even respect based on how he's talked about him on the air. But to him, I think being a coach with all the power is still what he wants. And that's why I think Jacksonville is off the table, Mike, because look who's still the GM there, Trent Balke. Bill Belichick does not want to work with Trent Balke.

That is not a situation that was ever going to pan out.

I think it's a little bit of his own doing in terms of being a good relationship person with the owners. He's really earned that belief from them that he knows what he's doing. But also people tell me that he's a really hard worker. He's one of those guys, he's always in the building, he's always around. And Mike, I do think in this process, a lot of owners don't wanna clear house

without anyone being in charge to help with the process, right? Because you get rid of the GM, you get rid of the head coach. Who's calling the shots? You are as the owner. And I don't necessarily believe every owner feels that comfortable calling the shots in terms of the football operation.

So Trent is a little bit of that safety net for them as they cast a pretty wide net here as we're seeing Aaron Glenn and Liam Cohen Matt Nagy, Anthony Weaver, all these guys expected to get interviews with the Jacksonville Jags.

I love his strategy, right? It's like he is forcing them. He's trying to sort of manipulate the process. Like I'm telling you you're hiring me and they're like, yeah, no, we're not doing that, right? Like, thank you. I appreciate it. And you gotta love the confidence. And I will say in a pool of coaches right now that doesn't have that much experience, I see what Rex is doing.

And I think he's going to do really well in this interview because I know the Jets, Mike Tannenbaum, again, leading that search. They are looking for someone who knows what they're doing, who can navigate this journey for them, who knows all the booby traps and the hurdles that come with being a New York Jet head coach. And if anyone knows it, it's Rex Ryan. Yeah.
