And we'll get done with a segment, and he'll turn to me, because I'm sitting right next to him.
He'll look over at me.
He's like, was that okay?
And I'm like, yeah.
Yeah, man.
But he wants to be coached like he's a player.
He's like, don't just tell me what I want to hear.
I want to get better at this.
He really, I think, has an appreciation for not just being on Nick Saban and that's enough, but really understanding studio television and how can I be better.
So I love that about him because he doesn't have to do that, right?
I mean, he's Nick Saban.
He can just be Nick Saban.
But he wants to really try to study the craft and get good at it.
I don't think so, Pete.
I don't think he's going to hang on the bus tonight.
Yeah, yeah. I mean, we've been talking about this for so long, you know, how nutty this is and how – It's easy to blame the players. I think it's easy to look at it like, how selfish are these guys? But I think if you put yourself in their shoes, I think the calendar and the way it's set up is difficult.
I don't know Bo's case because I know Preston Stone and there's some other guys that have entered the portal, but they're staying with their team and into the playoff, like at SMU, getting ready. I don't know why he felt the need to be able to enter the portal but then leave. Maybe you guys can help me with that. I don't understand that aspect of his specific story on why he's leaving the team.
I guess maybe he felt he had to go visit these schools to be able to really get a good handle on where he wanted to go. I have no idea. I know it's a little bit of a revolving door, especially at that position when it comes to the portal.
and you know some of these guys are trying to kind of be re-recruited like they're high school seniors again to try to figure out where where's the best fit for them so maybe he felt Before someone else takes the spot that he wants, he needs to go visit while his team's playing in these playoff games. He needs to go visit these schools. It's the only thing I can think of of why he left the team.
Here's the one thing I guess I would say, because this whole thing has gone from like when I played, players had zero rights for the majority of college football. The players have had you have no rights. You just do what you're told. And, you know, it's like you're in the Marines. Yes, sir. May I have another kind of thing?
