Hour 2: What is Trending | Spencer McLaughling on SUU-Utah | Who will BYU's QB be?

it's time to get your morning started with the news you need to know news update news upate this is what's trending with DJ and PK # NFL it's true competition uh and I would say at this current Point Drake has outplayed jacobe now I'm saying that we have to take in the full body of work you know going all the way back to the spring and the beginning of training camp and we'll see where we end up but those are the conversations that will happen here over the next couple of days there's the Patriots head coach and who is the Patriots quarterback that is the question rookie Drake May closing the gap between himself and jacobe brusett as the battle rages on in New England have you already crossed them off as a playoff team AFC looks good I know crazy things happen in the NFL but that's not going to happen is it I haven't thought about it yet we still have a week to go I I I'm I I just don't get into premature thinking is something that has never worked well for me but I believe what J hold the Mayo is saying Dallas Cowboys CD lamb have a deal four years 136 million a 38 million signing bonus biggest for a wide receiver in NFL history 100 million guaranteed the other 36 million hangs in the balance he's now signed to 2028 for him the rest of my life the Chiefs are reuniting with wide receiver GG Smith Schuster the former USC Trojan was their leading receiver two years ago last year signed a three-year deal in New England they've had the coaching changed they waved him he goes back to the Chiefs on a one-year deal Chiefs bound and determined to improve that passing game figures having Juju ought to help Packers need a backup to Jordan love I guess they don't like the two guys they have or maybe they really think Malik Willis is awesome seventh round pick he was going to be the third string quarterback in Tennessee they trade him to Green Bay for a seventh round pick and he figures to be QB number two for the Packers Nick chub in Cleveland expected to remain on the physically unable to perform list while he continues to rehab from a knee injury so all you fantasy football owners keep that in mind hey hey hey hey hey they're Governors buddy what's wrong with you people former Utah youthstar Tim Patrick expected to be released by the Denver Broncos unless they can trade him Shawn pyton said there were tough decisions to be made in the Broncos wide receiver room was Tim Patrick really a star at Utah not with a quarterback situation you just called him yes I I did read that word but no DJ and PK # colge footb I'm not negative to anybody in here I would

with 30 years of serving Utah question of the morning BYU hasn't publicly named a starting quarterback listing Jake Ratz or Gary bohannan on the dep chart WTF Steve I'm not worried about it we'll find out on the first snap Saturday oh no no we'll find out before all the hawkey will be up in the Press Box looking to see with their binoculars who is taking the first team reps in the pregame in the yes in the warm-ups oh I wonder if they'll trick us then too Brady they got this bleep from Whittingham maintain every competitive Advantage although as long as this team knows who's the number one that's all that really matters and Whittingham is a bleep let's just get that out there that's just establish it right now Jim they didn't bring bohannan in to not start him Jim's on the Gary Bohanan train H it's not 752 or whatever I said 753 right and if you better get here a minute early though absolutely if you're not a minute early you're a minute late Scott it'll be bohannan are they trying to fake out Southern Illinois come on Scott we have the questions here well they definitely want Southern Illinois to prepare for both quarterbacks there's no question about that and in doing so they are paying Southern Illinois an enormous amount of respect they are by doing the way they're doing it uh so be it the thing that I noticed Kanani satake was on edge yesterday man he seemed to be a little snarly how many freaking times you bleepers gonna ask me that that was essentially the message I'm adding emphasis know sometimes when you read scripture and know have emphasis and it'll be italic and then you'll see emphasis added you know I read scripture this is the audible italic Jesus wept I know my scripture there it is David in Southern Illinois do we care who cares if you care I don't care they care they must think southern Illinois is a potential to be a threat by doing so back to the enormous amount of respect you just said yeah it could happen but I wonder if the starter is the starter in game two Maybe not maybe once you introduce Maybe not maybe youve open the door to maybe it has to be that way there's no other way once you say maybe not you're also saying maybe you cannot have one with without the other Aaron uses the word Maybe that's how he starts his reaction maybe they don't have a quarterback they got four they feel good about four Dave goes beyond the maybe it's gonna be a long season a long hot summer a long season will it be a Long December maybe this year will be better than the last yeah you just don't know I wondered if you were going to change the lyrics to long November well why because it's the final month of the season is they labor trying to get necessarily you've assigned them a long November as they labor and you've got last week well if Cam Rising goes down then the other teams have a shot in the dark and here you are well as they labor to get six wins your bias is so freaking evident building up what Dave said a blind man can see it it's going to be a long season blind that's it pass the bu you do that so very well yeah then it's not a long season keep giving it away pass the buck man you should be so generous literally with your money I own everything that comes out of my pie hole or in my case a burrito hole burritos breakfast burrito let's go Gary I have eligibility left as long as you let me know before I tailgate too hard I should be good to go is that Gary Bo Hannon it is not it's a g a r y traditional spelling if you will it's Gary James who studied at Sal Lake Community College bar operations manager and bar manager of culinary crafts so there you go it's that g thank you for his resume it's that Gary very important to know yeah you're welcome s they're going to use both quarterbacks I don't know that they're going to use both quarterbacks in this game with the intent things may change to dictate it but that makes it sound like it's a statement of fact that that is the plan they very well could use to due to circumstantial situations that dictate as such I sound like one of those gals who sent the beauty contest I want to create education as the better the Iraq J M used to play that one gal incessantly and as such yeah I'm saying words stalling trying to put something together I like create education better though create education you know it's it's kind of cumbersome but it's important we need to create education better I mean you create make what's the difference the point is the same I'll take awkward from 500 but the message was great education received and related yes so what else matters yeah I understood just like you know I I understood what letter carrier was getting at when you think about it what Larry Johnson have did that car Malone have not did I mean come on he's right Brett says this is no big deal we'll find out on Saturday if anything it just means bohannan isn't any better than Rett laugh or they're being Sly they're still going to go five and seven Go's exclamation point I'll give him five but not one more so that's why it would be a Long December because everybody else would be gearing up for a bowl or a playoff and those 15 additional practices which are oh so crucial to the development of the young players I've heard that a time or a thousand Arizona went from five to seven to 10 wins and they didn't have that oh so crucial 15 extra practices for the young players plus the boosters get a trip to somewhere warm and fun and I get my job for another year yes that's why November will be what it is but once the season ends and there's no ball meanwhile dozens of other schools are still playing ball and possibly your rival is gearing up for a home playoff game that would be historic unto itself that would make December far longer than November as they labor according to David James sorf II to get the six wins labor no one said that in any Facebook post those are your words slice that up y' to re be replayed on a daily basis and if they should get to six in style we will throw those words back at you more so than your anointment of Caleb re so are you just going to ignore the whole part about November December in the lyrics and take it out of context because I think that's what you're going to do amazingly you shifted and took your words and do not have accountability shocking to those who should be viewing us and listening to us for the very first time for the rest of us conversation we know you said labor to get to six wins that is the conversation and why did I say that heaven knows I can't speak for what goes into your mind lyrics thought you were GNA change him labor to get the six wins what music lyrics are involved in laboring to get the six wins Long December follow along follow along I set the pace last year they went ow and in November in first place I don't follow along I lead You're So Random you're so incredibly random one man's random is another man's on point okay own it you think they're going to labor to get to six wins no problem your popularity with the UT just sword doesn't matter with the Thunderbirds with the Wolverines the Wolverines are sitting this one out they sit there and watch the football debates go on or they default to their second team I don't know what they do there get into the mind of a wolverine later well default to Utah they're line for a historic season Kanani satake is irritated that's the story of the day man he was irritated yesterday he was having none of it you'll find out when you find out you jerks I'm tired of this bull [Laughter] junk quoting D on that awesome Hey Big 12 coaches got to stick together bull junk he may be a man of love but he can change his mind everybody gets the right to change their mind we are joined Now by Spencer mlin he is a southern Utah play byplay voice and the host of the locked on college football podcast Spencer good morning good morning in inde fellas football is back in action and I can't imagine a better way to start the day so what is the attitude for southern Utah come to Utah are they ready to shock the world is there a little bit of trepidation is it all of the above is there a little mystery because in all this era there's so many transfers everywhere nobody really knows what's going to happen yeah I think it adds you know the the transfer portal that is an aspect of mystery to every or any football program that you know leans on it very heavily we saw that with Florida State over the weekend in Ireland you know on on paper they should have been much better than Georgia Tech at least on one side of the line of scrimmage and they just got absolutely manhandled on on both and you give credit to Georgia Tech's offensive line but that defensive line shouldn't have stifled that Florida State Run game on paper but on the field the results were were of course very different I to your first question the the mood around southern east uh I I think this is a really confident team and a confident program right now uh coach Vince has done just a a heck of a job he was rewarded with a contract extension well deserved in this off season you know he he's really turned the program around almost immediately I I don't know how much better of a job he could have done certainly he I'm sure he tell you there are games that and moments that he'd like to to have back but uh the the upward trajectory is very apparent and this is a team that coming into it second season in the united Athletic Conference and it's third with Coach Fitz at the hel is certainly expecting to be a conference title contender in a league that last year was ranked as the third best FCS conference in the country behind the Missouri Valley in the Big Sky so who's it going to be a quarterback I got three possible names you tell us yeah it's it's been a fierce battle uh I mean ever ever since the spring uh it has been an intense battle between all three guys they feel like they've gotten it down to two they expect both of them will play that'll be Jackson Barry uh who was on the roster last year as the third string quarterback and they feel has really stepped his game up in the off season and has improved himself tremendously amidst the quarterback battle and it'll be him and Bronson Baron you know they expect you might see all three quarterbacks last time Southern Utah was in Salt Lake City three quarterbacks took the field you might see all three but certainly they expect uh both Barry and and baron to to play and you know Bronson Baron is a guy that uh has got a lot of experience at the FCS level has been very successful at at Weaver State uh he's a Utah native and you know I'm I'm sure he's excited to be playing back uh in his home state once again and you'll see him tomorrow you'll see Jackson Barry who is uh a phenomenal athlete when you talk about what he brings to the table but they feel like they've really stepped up his uh his passing ability throughout the quarterback competition so uh both guys should play and I I I want some wouldn't be surprised if we see all three Kyle Whittingham was just talking about the positions that they've added a chief of staff a general manager as the staffs get bigger I get how some of these schools are tracking the potential transfers all across the country but I don't think southern Utah has those kind of resources and yes they're getting from BYU Weber State UNLV Utah Tech we get that but how do they how do they find guys from New Mexico Military Institute Frostburg State the University of soue Falls if they brought in staff from those places what is the connection it obviously seems to be working but it also seems borderline impossible yeah I mean they're uh is an element of mystery to me as well with the transfer portal with out of how does this guy end up there and you just go through different uh back Channel Communications of oh this guy got recruited by this position coach and he went into the portal and he was looking for a home and he texted this guy and I mean there are a lot of different ways those connections get made you mentioned Frostburg State where Delane and several of his came from when they got to Southern Utah they had a remarkably successful almost decade run uh back in Maryland at what is now division 2 school they made that transition from a D3 to a D2 and uh they were very successful over there so when you see a player at Southern Utah come from Frostburg State it was probably somebody who played for for Coach Fitz uh all the way back on on the east coast and you know I I think they've done a nice job in the transfer portal I don't think you can highlight the transfers they're excited about obviously you talk about the quarterbacks like Bronson Baron but I think Mark Bales at wide receiver is guy who has got some pretty big shoes to fill you know Isaiah wooden was an impact player for the last couple of years after he transferred over from Kent State and he and Justin Miller had a a big big part uh we really the driving force of the southern Utah passing offense particularly down the field but you know he was a Do-it all guy for southern Utah and uh Bales coming from division 2 seen Hill College had almost a thousand yard season last year and I I think they're really excited about what he can bring to the table and uh you know like I said he he's got some some big shoes to fill but certainly he's got the talent uh to to be part of a really really productive receiving court is Braden Whistler at running back almost 700 yards ready to take the next step and go over a th Y and maybe first team All Conference it looks like it's possible and then you also got Lamson backing him up so it looks like they're fairly solid in the ground game yeah they they are you know and this is a running game you know coach Fitz is an offense guy and uh if you get really specific he's a run game guy you know he he's uh going to have a passing element and you know be balanced on offense but you know like coach Whittingham he he wants to he wants to run the football or as Brent key at Georgia Tech might say run the ball and I I think that for for Braden Whistler if you look at the second half of last year it was completely different this was a running game that struggled in the early part of the season and then they found their footing and what do you know Southern Utah started playing their best football and they were pushing for for a conference Championship and playing with the best teams in the league and competing with those that you know went on to make the the FCS playoffs like Austin P uh who they lost to in a double overtime Thriller last year so uh I I think whistler's got immense potential um based on what he you know showcased in the second half of last year it's the offensive line that gives me a lot of confidence though I I like both running backs I think they're going to bring a lot to the table you can have games I I think where bra Whistler will look like the hot hand and you'll have games where targi Lamson might be someone you ride with I think they you know complement each other very well they're certainly different Runners lamson's a little bit more physical and whistler's a little bit more of a scat back and I I think both are very capable but they're behind four returning offensive linemen uh from a unit that was uh exceptional in pass protection last year and found its footing in the ground game over the second half of the Season even without their All Conference offensive linean ly Santos so he's back healthy and ready to go and you know I I think that that that ground game is something that southern Utah is going to be able to lean on more frequently than they did last year defensively uh correct me if I'm wrong but I think they led the conference in sacks and tackles for loss and interceptions uh that suggests that the defensive line is creating a lot of uh Havoc as some coaches like to say yeah I uh I like the defensive line unit a lot you know there there's a lot to like on the defense there's certainly a couple of of questions I don't think doubts but questions in the secondary losing guys like AJ Felton Jordan Washington who were impact players last year for for this team Cody Coleman as well they've brought in a couple uh secondary but the defensive line is where it all starts and Ryland suo was a big big presence in in the middle of that defense along with Payton Payne last year and they're both back you know you lose Robert horsey to graduation and certainly that that's a name that has to be replaced with with how good he was on the defensive line last year but I think that when when you look at what they have and what they are bringing back uh they feel good about uh their front seven in general you know and you got to mention Conor colore might be the best all-around player on on the southern Utah defense has just been a standout from the moment he he set foot on campus at the linebacker position he's not the biggest guy and you know he may not blow you away with uh Elite physical traits all the time but then you're going to look up at the end of the game and go wow he had a pass break up two tackles for a loss and and nine total tackles uh that's just the way the way that he plays so you know up front with with defensive coordinator John Kelling back for his third year and he's done a great job over the last couple Seasons you you have to feel good about what s has on that side of the ball also to linebacking reading what the coaches are saying particular the head coach delaye saying that they very excited about the linebacking core they feel like they have depth you mentioned cmore but also guys like uh whan and Dunn and uh stad they they think that and then there's a couple new faces with Rich and uh I think his name fizel uh they think they've got enough Talent there uh it looks like on paper that uh they can be excited about this group yeah Ricky Rich the newcomer of the group and then as you mentioned a lot of veterans you know I I'd look for a guy like Mason stad to potentially have a big season you know it'll come down really to to who else is going to get the majority of of reps you know alongside cmore because you know you lose a guy like Aubrey nellum who's a fantastic player from last year's team and much like Isaiah woodn't leaving on offense it it leaves a pretty sizable void but you have so much talent and experience that that is poised to step in and fill that sort of role and you know I I can't say without having watched them play a game you know who that's going to be but it certainly could be a Mason stad it could be a Trent R Trent whan or maybe Ricky Rich you know uh flies up the depth chart and and ends up making a big impact I I think they all end up playing uh and and having a role in some capacity on the southern e saw defense Josh Dunn another peteran guy who's been here for for the last couple of years uh that they they have every right to feel confident in what this linebacking unit brings to the table when an FCS teams trying to pull an upset usually you know they're outmanned along the lines but they make big plays sometimes in special teams this team got a knack for anything there blocking kicks blocking punts in the return game is there anything there where there might be an edge well I I think in in the special team's regard you know they brought in a new kicker the this off season and the kicking game not not just with the the kicker himself but it it had its ups and downs last year and La last time uh these these two teams played you know Southern Utah started with uh it an onside kick and uh I I have no idea if that's uh in in the game plan once again we'll just have to see come come Thursday but uh I look at Elias vigil the punter had a really good season last year and uh not not in the sense that you know you're just snapping the ball and having him throw a 30 yard pass but his ability to flip the field and be precise in the punting game was really really solid for southern Utah last year and I think any defensive coordinator tell you that a good punter helps your defense a lot you know pting a team inside the 15 or inside the 10 is is immensely valuable and limits the play calling at some level for an offensive coordinator compared to starting at the 20 the 25 or anything beyond that so uh I I think vigil is is a guy that they uh that they really like back there and and can have a good day on on special teams and yeah if you're going to go in there and shock the world you might need a special play on special teams how many Southern Utah fans do we expect to make the trip does Cedar City empty out oh gosh um I I I don't know you know I'm up in the I'm up in the Press Box last time I was there and everybody's wearing red down below so it all looks the same uh I I know that there are a lot of people excited you know about the opportunity to play Utah I'm a big fan of the instate matchups you know we played BYU last year for the first time in 20 2016 and I I thought that was a great environment to be in I know rice Eckles will have a great environment as well and uh you you'll have a handful of Southern Utah fans certainly that that make the trip because you know they're excited to to have the opportunity to play at Utah to be sure but really just to to get their first impression of the football team which you know coming off their first winning season in 60 years and having so much returning Talent as we talked about uh I I think everyone down here in Cedar City is is really excited I know a couple uh people within the athletic department or at the school that otherwise need to be on campus are finding a reason to go up and uh and attend the game and you know I think it'll be an awesome way to to kick off the season to play a team like Utah that you know has a lot of big preseason expectations themselves they're my pick to to win the Big 12 this year and you know getting that that first first that first paay the football uh I think it's got Cedar City fans really really excited for for Thursday and about the season that's up coming Spencer thanks for the time we appreciate it enjoy the game yeah thank you guys appreciate you for having me on go T Birds Spencer MC Loflin Southern Utah play byplay voice Frank Dolce former youth quarterback coming up at 805 and 753 PK promised big news so we're six and a half minutes away we'll see you

roll he opens a tour tonight at the Delta Center it's brought to you by Live Nation for all the live concerts and events in 2024 check out livenation.com it is 7:53 PK at 7:08 you promised us something about the BYU starting quarterback Who who's it going to be I think it'll be RL and you think this because I'm just reading the tea leaves there it is I think that uh rettl has had the job for Spring ball went into the off season and didn't really do anything to lose it and bowan and closed the Gap but didn't do enough to take it away not yet but obviously not ruling him out and and I very well could be wrong so I'm not reporting it absolute fact uh conversations have led me to believe that this is what's going to happen for the first game that's so that's exactly what it is for the first game and I guess uh bo Hannon had some cryptic post on social media somewhere uh what did he say y on Instagram I said like takes things a god takes things away to test I remember what it was exactly but it was it was cryptic it was right around the timeline you would have thought he maybe a decision had come doesn't it make sense if if the coaches are being honest with us that it's really that close when you go with a guy who has two years of Eligibility over the guy who has one trying to build something going forward no I don't think that's it because because they may not be here next year so so what do they give a crap if they win three ball games there's going to be significant changes again so no I don't think that's the line of thinking whatsoever well to your point though they they obviously don't they want to win game so one guy get him better chance they' start that guy but they keep telling us that they're about the same so they presumably then they both give him about the same chance to win a game so in that case yeah you might be gone next year but you also might be here next year and then the pressure's on them too you can stick to that line of thinking if you want but I'm just telling you that's not their line of thinking right now if you want to continue to think it have at it uh but I don't think that's from what I in my conversations I don't think they're playing a younger guy simply because he is younger uh in eligibility wise I don't I don't think that's where they're they're at right now I think they're looking at uh who they feel has earned the right to start this game and if it's a freshman if it's a freshman if it's a seventh year senior it's a seventh year senior uh so many things happen in college football that the future is virtually irrelevant uh it because in the offseason with all the transfers going I mean who's to say rlap doesn't take off and get a better ni nil deal for some team like uh DJ ulele did from Oregon State at this time last year where they say well we we should play uh DJ he's got two years well he was the best guy for Jonathan Smith in Corvalis and that's what they went and then everything goes to pot and the coach takes off and the kid takes off and away they go so I don't I don't think you can plan for that that can't be in your line of thinking uh particularly when you're trying to keep your job so I don't think that's where it's at I think that they redl has had the job and nothing has really happened 100% for him to be unseated and away they go but bannan is going to get his opportunity and Mel maybe he starts this week and holds the job for 12 12 games or redl holds the job and there's so much to be decided even as a decision is made the decision is made for now and he gets redlab gets first crack at it and away he goes how quick is the hook well that remains to be seen maybe there's no need for a hook I'm not I'm not approaching it from the negative standpoint DJ PK when we come back Frank Dolce former UD quarterback joins us looking ahead to the opener Thursday night stay with us
