professionals this is Jake Scott and Ben Anderson on 975 the KSL Sports Zone what just me in just I thought was eting know think J 975 the KSL Sports Zone Jake Scott Ben Anderson thank you for making us a part of your Tuesday what's going on over there Ben doing well how are you good you excited for your children to go back to school tomorrow I think they're ready for it I think they were uh a little nervous about it but went and checked out the new Junior High yesterday oh yeah how'd that go it was good was it good had some issues getting him registered for a while and he excited though he like the that's a new school over there ready daughter got her ears pierced last night how'd that go she seemed happy so Life's good any tears no tears oh would it would it be tough yeah yep uh write a passage we could put we could do as a draft best ride of passages got to be careful with some of those but like when Ben got his nipple pierced for the first time yeah did they look at you weird at Claire's when you went in there yeah well they didn't like that I didn't wear a shirt in they weren't against doing it but it's that I came in shirtless I have to go to Claire's now like once a month cuz my daughter's in that club where you get free earrings or whatever once a month so we have to go into cla's like once a month I can't even imagine because if you've seen the clientele that goes to Claire's it's little kids little bunch of little girls and that's it can you imagine coming in peeling off your shirt and being like all right I want a quomo give me the devil quomo give me the double quomo yeah the poor G would be like sir the cla's I'm going to need you to put your shirt back on do that here oh we should do it and film it that's how you go viral right there how you go to jail

them if you take off your shirt at the mall do you get arrested again it depends on where you are we've had this conversation where I mixed up Spencer and Claire's Spencer probably not Claire's probably probably probably well yeah deservedly so probably at Claire's can you imagine the looks from the parents you know going through the earrings of Claire's this boso just trying to get a Hello Kitty journal for my daughter will you button your shirt up please I don't know why that visual is so funny to me but that seems to me like it would be quite funny sir I'm trying to shop for a Hello Kitty purse for my daughter can you please put those nipples away please put those things away we don't do that here oh that's so funny after doing two hours with PK I needed a laugh thank you thank you Ben I appreciate that uh but yeah good for your daughter that's awesome yeah absolutely a right a pass do you guys go back to school our kids go to the same school uh we went to the back to school thing yeah teachers seemed nice good it's back to school kids are ready to be back I I'm I get a little anxious for my kids going back I am uh happy as a parent to uh have them put some energy to something a little bit more productive they've run out of things to do this summer I had a like a a throwback to emotions that I had as a kid though cuz my my daughter found out which class she's in and most of her buds are in the other one yeah and so she's pretty sad about that and it's like I remember that remember when you're going into your fourth grade CL class or third grade class or whatever it is and you look at the list you're like oh I'm in the one without everybody it's like this weird sad thing that doesn't actually matter and you think you're never going to see him yeah right it's like you're gon to see him every day every day it's fine yeah yeah you don't really get a socialize in class anyway it's you're GNA have your recess together things be good it's gonna be just fine but I remember I was having like throwback anxiety because she was bummed about it last night or yesterday afternoon trying to teach my son how to use a locker how to use the old and I had to kind you know and it comes back it's a little bit like riding a bike twist it three times to the right and then pass it on the left and then come back to it's just like it's like if you've never done it before it totally seems foreign now when you do it every day between you know I did it from seventh grade to 12th grade it becomes second nature but now is your son the type of guy cuz I definitely knew these people and I was one to a certain extent but is your son the type where when you clean that Locker out at the end of the year it's going to be absolutely gross yes yeah not like food necessarily but like food's the worst so that's so many papers and stuff yeah and I know it's going to become an issue of leaving stuff at school I left it in my locker well you got to do your homework it's in my locker get in the car yeah right we're going back to walk to school going back to school we're going to get to that's what happened to me left it in my locker oh well better go get it better go get it y yeah I remember though Locker clean out day at the end like when I had to clean it was like a whole thing I had to get my own garbage can just full of stuff yeah absolutely oh I forgot this existed yeah forgot I but then there are some people that keep them like tidy and nice wasn't me not GNA happen wasn't me either Christian strikes me as a tidy and nice Locker guy I barely used my locker to be honest in high school I had a locker partner do you have Locker Partners in high school I didn't luckily and my sophomore year I definitely had a locker partner who was really into stealing okay and so just random stolen things would show up in my locker and I would think oh they weren't stealing from you no they were using they would steal things and then it would end up in the locker and I would think wow I hope nobody well that's good you could have assumes it's me you could have stolen from them because what are they going to do they can't rat on you for stealing their stolen stuff I I didn't think I needed like a old tape deck yeah right and all the other random stolen stuff that would show up but that was an interesting thing it's like I I hope he doesn't get raided because I'm GNA get wrapped up in this whole thing it's my thing I'm get he's probably going to sell me down the river they like I don't know what you're talking about never seen any of this stuff in my life apparently a lot of schools are getting rid of lockers I'm Pro Locker it's a personal space it's a little responsibility well and ideally you have like a big book for every subject right but they don't because the internet exists now so you just get everything online you don't have to carry around big books in school anymore at all not really see speaking of right of passage that should be a right of passage you should have to heft around a bunch of heavy books yeah that's how it works I just don't think those textbooks for Utah history exist anymore well that's stupid yeah we'll see we'll see I I'll learn more tomorrow after day one you have to buy like a laptop for your Junior High kid well they all have a Chromebooks I suppose my daughter has one of those two I guess at school yeah I don't know that's lame I remember okay get rid of lockers they don't need lockers to make book covers because the books were they needed them to last well what are kids using lockers for these days probably housing stolen goods like yeah right what do they need a a locker for now just have to heave around a a Chromebook they don't even need a backpack I think that's the argument all right well I'm Pro get rid of locker then okay pretty pro-e heavy book though so if we're moving away from the heavy books then you can't have nice things teach you something he doesn't have gym which is weird oh yeah I remember in junior isn't that like a half year thing I think it's an it's or an elective it's an elective and he didn't get it it was his top priority and he didn't get it but he registered late which I think Jim's good for kids so what is he taking like uh like choir or something stage crew he's going to go uh pull the pull the curtain for the performances for act for the actors oh doing lighting and stuff I can't believe that's a class someone's got to do it I think it'll be good for him does someone have to do it I'm glad he's doing it that's what Christian's doing Christian is our stage crew right now pushes all the buttons I remember somebody turns the lights on I remember stage crew in high school and they were very strange people yeah so I'm setting them up for a weird life very very strange I think people just took it because it was a throwaway period where they didn't have to do anything yep they could just leave it's where we're headed all right were you on the stage crew Christian no at your high school were they super weird yeah our theater Department was like pretty intense in high school they talking about theater kids per se I'm talking about the stage crew it's a it's even different crew yeah yeah I don't I don't want to know what the stage crew is up to theater kids I know what theater kids are doing stage crew I don't want to know you know what I mean I'm Gonna Learn I'd get him out of that class immediately anything else take a second math class yeah it's not gonna happen hey it's good day for uh Johnny juang Ben he's a rich man for the time being uh it's interesting all these deals have come out Utah Jaz of announced deals for SP meluk who we didn't really talk about yesterday at all uh Johnny juing and the details on Drew eubank's contract have also come out all of these deals are onee guaranteed and everything after that is completely non- guaranteed we talked about a little bit with yesterday uh his first year he gets $3.5 million and then it's non guaranteed the rest of the way basically team options the rest of the way uh so the Jazz without doing anything basically already have $1 million in expiring contracts for this season now unlike we talked about this with with Lowry marinin where you have six months you had to wait six months after a player signs an extension to trade him with free agents it's only like three months so and everyone becomes trade eligible really on December 15th so as soon as December 15th the Jazz will have drew Eubanks Johnny juank s Muk and I I I think Michel luk and Eubanks are probably the more interesting players there and I'll I'll explain why but that they can trade and the Jazz have continued to set themselves up to be versatile because they are not committed to one route yet they're not committed to one pathway yet they want to make sure that they have options to get out of contracts trade contracts and maintain the ability to make moves and that's that's where the Jazz are at flexibility flexibility it's their number one asset right now is that they're flexible they can do anything this all makes a lot of sense yeah I'm sure they like Johnny juang or he would not be have been around this long but yeah they're probably signing him to that deal to either not pick up the option next year or move him this year but four years $1 million is pretty poultry by NBA standards well he's not going to see anywhere near that though if yeah if they don't pick him up and if they do if they like him great he costs two million bucks a year super easy it's an easy contract right and he's just doing it for the guaranteed two million bucks he's trying to fight his way onto the roster this keeps him onto the roster and gets him paid and he's been a two-way contract player the last two years you make half the rookie scale as a two-way guy which is like $600,000 so good for him he goes from $600,000 a year to 2 million now two-way guys is it it is two-way guys right where when you play with the big Club you get one or you get one paycheck and when you play with the G League I think that's how it started is it still that way or no I think they have flattened it out so every two-way player just gets their half a million dollars because it's so funny one week you're like I'm GNA buy a Lambo and the next week you're like well I'm worried if I can buy that ham sandwich store yeah right we're going to Ramen cashing in getting called every time you get called up for a practice it'd be like oh thank goodness cuz I got to keep the heat on and that is still what 10day contract guys deal with but the nice thing is like conceivably I think if you're the Jazz and you're trying to make trades which again this is going to be a busy Justin zanic Danny a trade deadline because of these types of contracts you know the Jazz will look for contending teams or decent teams that want a backup center and you've got it in Drew Eubanks or can sell themselves on the idea of a six fo seven shooter which is what you have in s mck luk that's that's what the Jazz are doing they just continue to kind of mine that with the ability of well you'll pay these guys now and hope to get second round draft picks out of them or financial flexibility out of them or whatever asset you feel like is valuable going forward that's what the Jazz continue to set themselves up for and then maybe the pie in the sky option for the jazz is either they find a way to turn John Collins's $25 million into an expiring contract or John Collins plays well enough that he opts out of his deal not this year obviously this year but next year and the Jazz have his $25 million coming off the books and this basically $1 million in options that you have with Eubanks juzang and S Muk and you have $36 million potentially in cap space or money coming off the books at the very least that probably turns into free agent space and a lottery Pick and you've got the tools to start getting better that's kind of what the the framework of how things could work for the Jazz it makes sense it makes sense yeah or you sit on it all and have that room next year I mean yeah right or yeah you go two years and the only players you're going to have under contract are your rookies or your players on their rookie scales and Lowry Markin just yeah okay that's that's the foundation and it it shows that they're not I don't know if it shows the tank is on but it definitely shows that they're not interested in adding some vets to see where this group's going to go I think you can see because the Jazz out cap space now that's the other element of this that we didn't mention is that all these signings that jazz have made this this you know $36 million they had as of a week ago is gone they gave 24 to Lowry and they've given basically 12 out to Kyle filipowski who they also signed yesterday and these other three that we've been talking about all that cap space is gone and I think there's a pretty fair argument to say the Jazz didn't get any better yeah like you you got michaelo can play a little bit he's not gonna win games he can play he can see the floor well none of these guys are going to win your game yeah Eubanks isn't get to help you win games ja just don't have a lot of guys who help you win games you know you've got a team and every NBA team wins 20 and every NBA team loses 20 how many more of those final 42 games do you win who are the difference makers that either get you you know 30 of those which the best teams do or get you 10 of those which the worst teams do and the Jazz are far closer to that five to 10 range I think right now well yeah none of these guys you're signing because they make the team better you're signing them because they're Canon fod yeah exactly which is do you think but yeah Johnny juing doesn't care he's gonna get trade me to wherever yeah was going back to Europe or yeah was going to be rich here Johnny Jang has certainly at the point in his career where he's going to have to make uh or was going to have to make a decision of do I go make a decent living in Europe yeah or do I continue to try and fight and hang on to a two-way and now he's got a guaranteed deal for a year that John Johnny juice the happiest guy in town today absolutely and I'm sure there's some uncertainty about his future but who cares and he's going to play the certainty is he has $2 million in his pocket that he didn't before and if he did that with a different team then he would never see the floor he'd get us $2 million or whatever but there's going to be plenty of minutes to be had on this Jazz team yes there will in fact like there's a not zero chance he's fighting for a rotation spot they one yeah and then all of a sudden if you're a rotation guy just ask somebody like Royce O'Neal or I mean you can think of any of the I mean like Joe Engles I think would fall into this like once you get to be a quote unquote rotation guy in the league then all of a sudden opportunities are a little bit more plentiful because you've proven that you can do it and then you're off to the races right uh deari Carroll is another one you know where the Jazz found him on the scrap Heap turned him into a rotational guy and then he signning he signed a big deal with Toronto right yeah whoever it was not a big deal but in in money for this conversation it was a big deal yeah and it was a pretty productive player so Johnny juing is the happiest guy in town because now he has the opportunity to forget about you know how much he's going to be playing at Maverick Center and focus on making a rotation and if he makes a rotation then some other team teams are always looking for rotation guys yeah yeah and the Jazz specifically targeted he's in a great spot Arch archetypical players players of a certain archetype which are basically big shooters or hustle guys those guys are available yeah those guys have value when uh when you're making trades yeah what Jazz flipped Malik Beasley right I mean Teo yeah yeah those guys are I mean oen backup center you know now oen is more talented certainly than Drew Eubanks uh and will crack your skull which is helpful but having guys who can shoot you can always sell that having guys who can get rebounds you can always sell that and that's what the Jazz have and that's what they're going to continue to shop around and it's not going to be a season full of wins but it's going to be a season full of conversations urasa yeah right he was in a movie Once yes he was what was that movie called The Adam Sandler movie I don't care what was his basketball movie where he was the Scout was it hustle or something something like that 's a star but it was it was what's his name it who was the it wasn't erson who was in the movie oh no it wasn't no it was the the brothers wano oh her and Gomez that's right yeah jazz legend come on both Jazz Legends big time it was called hustle hle good job yeah Anthony Edwards yeah aun was in that he was good in that too was he good yeah he was funny comic relief better than Ray Allen and he got game that wasn't good I like the movie Ray did a poor job not an Act was Anthony Edwards playing himself he was see like everybody's like well LeBron was really good in that one movie with that one gal and it's like yeah I laughed a couple times at LeBron but he was just playing himself playing yeah train wre just playing train wreck yeah with uh what's her name Chuck what did you say Chuck's nie Chuck's nie you said Chuck's s Chu n was the there you go was the star of that movie Chuck's n or sneeze sne Chuck sneeze Chuck sneeze sounds like a made up quarterback in uh the new NCA football game Chuck Snee but see Ray ran into the he was playing someone else Ray that's hard yeah it is just playing yourself being goofy that's easy Chuck's n Chuck sne stay tuned it's my Alias when I start stealing stuff and putting in lockers top three stories of the day at KSL sports.com coming up next 975 the KSL Sports Zone who's got it better than us no your home for the best Sports coverage in Utah you're listening to Jake Scott and Ben Anderson on 975d KSL [Music] Sports a Monday warri mean mean stride today time so your mean mean Pride [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] J Man time with the top three stories of the day KSL sports.com brought to you by J Brooks Jewelers two locations to serve you one on Winchester Street across from Fashion Place Mall the other Traverse Mountain in Lehi all right Christian where are we starting today number one Utah head coach Kyle Whittingham named his backup quarterback right now cam Rising number one Isaac Wilson number two that's where we're at three and four still working through that but without much debate cam is one and Isaac is two uh this is what w had to say about Isaac Wilson I'm sorry for yelling at you about it yesterday uh Isaac has continued to get better each day he's seeing the field better making better decisions he's got a live arm ball comes out of his hand like it's supposed to very mobile that's another facet another strength of his being his being of his is being to have escapability in the pocket obviously a little nonsensical talk there but he senses the rush very well is able to get himself out of jams and still make a play on the Move what what do you read into Isaac Wilson being number two uh that they don't think Brandon Rose is any good and they don't want Isaac to transfer I think not wanting Isaac to transfer is a big part of it I also kind of wonder if they feel like there is such a huge drop off from cam to whoever why not just go with the young guy like you're not going to win the Big 12 well I guess maybe that's the question do you think you can win the Big 12 with a backup quarterback no uh but I you know what I'm not convinced that if an injury were to happen during the season again I hate talking about this stuff especially with Cam's history I mean I hope he makes it all the way through but I'm not convinced that Isaac would necessarily be the first one Off the Bench probably depends on where it is in the season and who they're playing but either Huard is just awful or this is something else is at play I wonder if they would play play the guy with experience if they absolutely have to yeah if let's say it's a fourth quarter of a onore game and cam twists his ankle is gonna be out is gonna be out until next week you know he's going to come back like what do you do there yeah do you go Huard who's been on a field he's seen these drives before he's made these types of reads before hasn't done it excellently otherwise he would be starting at Washington you're missing the big one though is less likely turn the ball over yeah that's it and see that's the that's the Instinct I mean you talked a lot yesterday about wit's instincts I mean that's like his biggest one so is he gonna play a true freshman who's probably GNA make some mistakes or is he gonna play the guy that he thinks is not going to throw an interception so that's why I wonder I mean I think you know depth charts are cute they they are and they provide fodder for bozos like us and I appreciate that they do depth charts just don't know how much they actually mean and I wonder if push came to shove what they would do it is best case scenario if Isaac Wilson is actually the second best quarterback on the team yeah yeah and if that's true then that's really the best case scenario but I don't I don't know if that's true or not and then if he is good for Utah's future if he's good and you can talk him into staying he's your guy yeah if you have an answer post cam Rising which is going to be one of the huge questions for Utah not the biggest the biggest is what do you do after Kyle Whittingham and we know where Direction they're headed they've already named their backup quarterback there in Morgan scall how well he actually does is a different question but yeah if you can find somebody to step in and replace cam rising and be a guy that's interesting it is not however the same conversation we used to have about Utah you know eight years ago nine years ago because nowhere is it similar in college football if they're not good you go get a transfer you just go get a guy there's a lot of players available you know in the past think of what a big deal getting hu at Utah would have been oh they might go get a guy anyway because they recruited over the top of young players they young quarterbacks I that's why McKay hillstead left Utah State apparently yeah exactly right and Utah will get somebody else there will be another big name that comes into the program next year and a true freshman like they've already got a true freshman who's committed and they will still go get the junior or senior transfer that's life so you know best case scenario Isaac Wilson's good and he's good for a long time worst case scenario it's not a big deal at all uh well I don't know if that's worst case scenario I wouldn't say that Utah's certainly been left without a quarterback before that that would seem to be the lot worst case scenario Norm Chow stepped into the job and was like oh Mylanta did you guys forget you mean this little kid Jordan win is the only quarterback on the roster huh did you forget you have to have more than a one person B they have to have actual quarterback skills I think they were less sans's quarter back last year actually if you want to make an argument really the last two years where you know they had cam rising and nothing else it's amazing they won eight games last year without a quarterback so that I would argue is the worst case scenario Isaac doesn't work out nor does anybody else and next thing you know John Hayes is starting yeah uh Nate Johnson R tough all year of just not not trying to play him that's a very bad situation Bryson Barnes and again bless his heart and I love his story he's a walk-on yeah how are you left just with a walk-on you're a Pack 12 team you got a walk-on playing I mean Utah truly didn't trust Nate Johnson Too throw the football they didn't give Bryson Barnes a scholarship until like two months ago yeah and now he's on Utah State right that was quite a year for Utah quarterback who was the guy Jason Shelly that was back in Huntley who wasn't that great he was on scholarship yeah right and he actually went out and beat Oregon to his credit M but you know what I mean like yeah I don't think best case scenario is he's good sure but worst case scenario is they have to go get somebody else well that's not yeah that's not the end of the world exactly right it could be that's not easy that's not something you's done it's not but you don't have to do that this year you got three guys you can cycle through the maybe I don't quarterback class is much deeper this year than it was last year quarter quarterback room samam rising's good yeah and we don't know about Wilson we don't or and they they are trying actively not to play Brandon Rose so I don't think their quarterback room is any better this year than it has been in the past or at least I don't know that I think there is value in believing that your quarterback can do a thing called a forward pass right they didn't believe that last but hu was a five star recruit or whatever and now he can't even beat out a true freshman correct right I mean so yeah absolutely there's a reason he went from Washington to calp excited about going to that guy no which is why he's not to on the depth chart then why would you be excited about going to Isaac Wilson I don't know if he can play I have no idea because what you're hearing about Isaac Wilson now again it's what we're hearing in Fall Camp which you might as well just have who is the most popular player on every football team always the backup quarterback it's always the backup quarterback I get it why what position are we strangely obssessed with backck of quarterback I talked to PK about Corbin LS today there was a bunch of you fans back in the day were like this is the replacement for Brian Johnson he is amazing yeah he is going to tear everybody a new one are you Bri Johnson yeah they couldn't wait to move him to safety and then he was so bitter about that he transferred to Nevada to do what play safety the biggest little football program in the world got one look at Corbin and they were like you're not a quarterback yet throngs of fans were like this guy you're not fooling us is amazing this is the next this is the next dude so I don't know I don't know if their quarterback rooms any deeper it has more celebrity factor it's hard to be worse than it was last year the once they lost Brandon Rose and they had nobody to go to do you think Isaac right now is better than the pick farmer no how was this role flipped I guaranteed he was going to throw for 200 yards every game last season and you said no and you were right most of the time but I was the one defending Utah's quarterback room last year and you were talking about bad it is and now we no I just don't think you can assume that it's a deeper quarterback room because you've actually heard of Isaac Wilson who's a true no actually it's and it's not even Isaac Wilson because I would say Isaac Wilson is probably a similar entity to what Utah had last year in Brandon Rose he just fell on a football and hurt his shoulder last year at least knock on wood if you're a Utah fan Isaac Wilson's healthy Brandon Rose was not and then you were getting to your three and four deep and I will say I think Utah's three and four this year is better than last year's which again insane to say it but look at what happened to Utah State last year look what happened to BYU last year sometimes you can find yourself playing your third and fourth quarterback and I will take Sam Huard I will take Brandon Rose who was last year's probably number two being three or four in that conversation I think that's better if you get down to a guy that can't beat out a true freshman and a guy that you're not even going to play in the bowl game I I don't care if they are better than they were last year Ben they stink I'm not saying and the team is going to stink if they get down to three and four Texas's quarterback therefore is a non-factor I do not care how good the fourth quarterback is they're gonna be terrible AB if Brandon Rose starts they're gonna be terrible I don't I I won't I won't coign that all right what's next number two Kanani sataki said he would like to announce a starting quarterback before week one yeah we would like to do that we could we could do the old school Coach episode where we don't say anything and you guys don't know anything just throw out a punter out there just in case but I don't know I think we're just going to I think we do what's right I think the team has a good feel on on the guys that are battling for it but what I've been impressed with is that they're all getting better is he talking about Craig T Nelson coach like is he actually talking about the TV show Coach or was he talking about the old coaching trick of not naming a quarterback until I think he talking about that uh old coaching trick um yeah whatever I think he'll do the old coaching trick I think this that comment is almost setting up the well it's that close guys I'd tell you yeah I'd tell you if we knew but man it is that close between these two players are you surprised that McKay hillstead is not in this conversation at all it doesn't seem like I am a little surprised given that he transferred from Utah State because he was bitter that he didn't feel like he get a chance and now it feels once again like he's not getting a chance but if Bo Hannon really is like blowing everybody away cuz he's coming in and healthy and slinging it then I think that if you want to talk about best case scenario worst case scenario that is absolutely the best case scenario let me ask you is that what you're getting from what he's saying I don't I don't that's not what I'm hearing when he's talking about these this quarterback race I'm not hearing that bohannan has surprised everybody and now they've got this hard conversation where are you going to start Tyler Huntley even though he's younger and you've got a captain already on the team that's not the way I feel it's not a similar scenario to that no yeah I I just don't get that I don't get this idea like oh there's this unexpected candidate that we're just going to throw out there and that's going to be the star because they're they're playing so good we can't keep them off the with bohannan is he's had a great Camp not from not from Kanani's well I mean I'm sure he said something along those lines but I've heard it from other places that he's had a really great camp that they had low expectations for him after spring because he couldn't do much in Spring and that he's really torn it up and if that turns out to be true then that is really really good because no offense to Jake rett's laugh but I don't think the ceiling there is all that high my opinion but if it's just a narrative about banan then I think BYU is in trouble at that position it's a little ironic because Bohanan historically has kind of been a low cealing guy if if he win if he beats out Rett laugh because R laugh ceiling is not that high and I know that's that's your words and I'm not trying to put that in mouth purely my opinion yeah yeah which I think is totally fair I mean I think that's absolutely fine uh but Hannah winning is has gone from being what seems like the low excitement safe choice to maybe the more exciting choice and I'm curious how to feel about that can he throw I don't know how well Reta can throw all right what's next number three Utah Hockey Club released their rookie tournament schedule uh this is going to be cool again it's a little bit like uh the summer league but this is even closer to the start of the regular season the rookie Faceoff tournament will be hosted by the LA Kings next month from the 13th through the 16th and uh you have NHL rookies seven teams together including Utah Hockey Club going and throwing their uh their prospects out there to play it can be like summer league where you get to kind of wet your appetite uh yeah absolutely uh because you know hockey's different they're I don't want to say they're less cautious with their players but they're less regulated with what their players do now this is all under the umbrella of the Utah Hockey Club but some of these guys go off and play for other teams or go back to college and have these different opportunities uh but this is cool their first game is going to be against the San Jose Sharks who had the number one overall pick and took mlin celebrini so a good taste you probably see TJ ginla see uh See Bowden out there some of these new players what do you think about the renderings of the facility I'm sure you got to look at those it was a little Bland but not every building needs to be the Eiffel Tower I I I just I'm not going to criticize building plans all that much I was excited about what the arena was supposed to look like in the original rendering that Ryan Smith put out I don't know if it's actually going to look like that no I was I was more interested in the concept less your architecture critique okay and more you know I would have gone mid-century modern up to me I know um oh I I love the idea of it and if you can build a bridge that goes over the freeway I guess why not build a bridge well that's a if they're going to keep it a mall that's a mall move right there right you got to get from the train to the they're not trying to get uh the assistant GM from the front run not taking the he's not taking the the bridge no that's a that's a move for South down mall like wow we need connection to that because that overpass is a zoo I can't even imagine walking over that thing yeah 106 South overpass so unfriendly to pedestrians but uh we're going to be inundated with hockey before long it's there's a they play a lot there's a lot of games and there's a lot of opportunities to see the team so well I wish they would have sampled something from the Baroque Period but I suppose it's a little it's a little Bland but functional I mean Frank Lloyd Wright wouldn't be thrilled no I'm not sure it matches the uh the surrounding nature somewh some dude in an Architecture Firm just like like threw his Rolodex hearing Ben talk about it what are you talking about yeah someone actually just spent some geek who drafted that for the last six months it's like how dare dare you what do you know some idiot gets on the radio it just absolutely that look boring stay tuned more next 975 the KSL Sports Zone the sports you love the teams you can't live without get a sense of urgency this is Jake Scott and Ben Anderson on 975 the KSL Sports Zone [Music] in my eyes in dispose in disg no one knows has the face last the snake J Ben 975 the KSL Sports Zone Jake Scott Ben Anderson thank you very much for making us part of your day I can't believe this next story is true Ben we don't have to focus on this but you're aware of a quarterback named will Levis I am who's he he plays for the Titans right correct out of Kentucky uh so he is now sponsored in bin a fragrance will Levis number eight okay now do you know what the fragrance resembles Beach tones mayonnaise oh well mayonnaise stinks tastes good but does mayonnaise even have a smell I don't even does mayonnaise even have a well it's egg based so it kind of has that rotten NY smell I got to imagine though and I Hey listen I don't think uh have a little lemon in there guess I don't think a good cologne is anybody's secret to meeting uh have you know getting a girlfriend sure like really if you're it it doesn't hurt but it's not I don't think it's going to make the difference I think it could make the difference the other way if you smelled like mayonnaise what can hurt is a bad smell a stinky person is hard to get a date yeah and not just like neutral smelling but like smell like mayonnaise yeah you're not getting a date you smell like eggs it's not going to happen I don't think you have to walk around wearing a Dr Noir but you can't smell like Manny you can't smell like man what's that smell we're in the club oh don't worry that's me I've been drink lavis number eight some mayonnaise flavor eggs little oil in there some salt squeeze of I guess if you're actually trying to repel attention from sure if you're a celebrity yeah right you're trying to scare people off I don't need the headache I'm going to wear my will Levis number eight out to the club tonight [Laughter] yeah I'm just surprised mayonnaise and by the way should will Lis be like sponsoring anything it's kind of like the the baker Mayfield with all those State Farm commercials when he sucked for the Browns remember that yeah everybody's looking around like what are you what are you doing a national ad campaign for State Farm you stink do you know the the backstory for this why this is a thing no he puts it in his coffee right yes in the draft process uh when he was coming out uh he went viral for saying that he he puts mayonnaise in his coffee instead of coffee creamer that's the grossest thing I've ever heard and I like mayonnaise I like Mayo too it has a place uh not in coffee a lot of things go good in coffee not mayonnaise you can do powdered creamer you can do actual creamer you can do milk you can do little honey little honey if you want do a little scoop ice cream it's like a latte basically not Mayo there's nothing in mayo that goes in coffee by itself nothing none of the elements of mayonnaise have anything to do with coffee so I get it he's got now a unhealthy connection to mayonnaise still doesn't mean coffee breath and his clone smells like eggs good job coffee breath with mayonnaise breath like a mixture of the two like that can't be good and I smell like mayonnaise in my personal life anyway I want to up I want to up this smell this guy's lucky he is a quarterback it's the only way he's going to get a date yeah dude you stink you're lucky you make millions of dollars you stink on and off the field yeah is he any good not we don't know yet he was okay his first couple of games and then fell apart like every quarterback once they scouted they got hurt they're like oh yeah we know we know who you are so don't take him in my fantasy draft then uh by the way Vikings uh quarterback JJ McCarthy has a torn miniscus which is actually a break for him because then he really has an excuse not to play and again these quarterbacks playing early is nothing but detrimental shouldn't be playing anyway in my opinion I'm with you I mean even the Patrick momes sat for a year I do think that that's healthy I don't think your guy Caleb Williams is headed for Success uh but potentially good news for jiren hall right is he gonna get to play for the Vikings uh well he probably has a much better chance of at least being on the 2D making the roster yeah well it depends how long you out for a meniscus that's not a season no ending should injury but they might be extra careful with him which they should I don't think JJ McCarthy's going to be good but he's got a better chance of being good he's not thrown into the mix day one uh Sam darnold's not going to win the job long term so that's fine he's the other backup in Minnesota he's got good hair somehow still floating around yeah the Jets God what a bad franchise amazing Sam darnold's had this good a career he got the will Leva stink off of him yeah seriously you play for the if you play quarterback for the Jets you might as well be wearing mayonnaise cologne just wear actual mayonnaise just going to have a stink just a stink on you did you see that player who got traded to the Jets like two months ago was already demanded a trade yep get me out of here it's a disaster it's a disaster program can't fire their crappy offensive coordinator because he's Aaron Rogers buddy tried to hire a guy to actually be the offensive coordinator but that guy didn't take the job because they wouldn't give him the title of offensive coordinator he was just going to be like behind the scenes actually doing the work guy and Arthur Smith was like I don't think so bet Zach Wilson's the happiest person on the planet to not be in New York with the Jets yep 100% all right stay tuned we'll have uh more coming up next in fact we're going to uh switch gears a little bit Ben and uh talk a little college football with shahan jaraja he covers college football for CBS Sports we're going to talk to him next 975 the KSL Sports Zone
