00:02they didn't need many add-on runs
00:044-1
00:054-1 final
00:08only 5 hits for the Tigers
00:11and how about this
00:12you want to know how tight the race is
00:14they were in yesterday
00:15with the loss last night they're in 4th place
00:18in the division
00:207 teams within 3 games in the final
00:22wild card spot
00:25it's a roller coaster
00:26I'm saying it man
00:28can we put this Terry on Arnold thing to bed
00:31so he was
00:34added to the commissioner exempt list yesterday
00:36he can't even practice with Seattle
00:38once they sign him
00:39and last night on Hard Knocks
00:41they're featuring the Seahawks
00:43their general manager John Schneider admits
00:45the shocking allegations against Terry on Arnold
00:48would have prompted the Seahawks to cut him
00:50if he was already on the roster
00:52the Lions
00:54handled this exactly
00:56the way any other team would
00:57he deceived them
01:00he wasn't very good
01:01and he may end up in prison
01:02he can't practice
01:04they didn't screw this up
01:05by releasing him
01:06and giving up on him too early
01:08even Seattle would have released him
01:09under the same circumstances
01:10well and so part of it is
01:12when you put on the commissioner's exemplist
01:14you still count against the cap
01:16now they're
01:16obviously the Lions are going to still take
01:17a little bit of a cap
01:18having released him
01:19it would have been much higher
01:21the risk for Seattle
01:22being that second chance team
01:24is much lower
01:26and it is
01:27you described this earlier
01:28as a lottery ticket
01:29if he ends up not serving time
01:31or he's exonerated
01:32or it doesn't matter
01:34if he's even found guilty
01:35but he doesn't serve time
01:36like there might be a suspension
01:37but he'll be a desperate athlete
01:40you would think
01:41to try and resurrect his career
01:44they may get a better version of Terry on Arnold
01:47at a very deep discount
01:49now have no idea
01:50if he'll ever
01:52play again in the NFL
01:53have no idea
01:54if he does
01:55if he'll be any better
01:56than he was for the Lions
01:57but it's a risk
01:57you can take on a minimum salary
02:00for a second team
02:01as opposed to the Lions
02:02who are like
02:03this has become a headache
02:04we're not dealing with this
02:05and it might have been worth the headache
02:06if he wasn't one of the worst corners in football
02:08he graded out 97th
02:09out of 114 corners
02:11you had the numbers about
02:13penalties versus pass breakups
02:15penalties versus interceptions
02:16the guy wasn't good enough
02:18to put up with any of this headache
02:20and John
02:20with his trial in October
02:21you're not going to play this year
02:23no
02:23and it
02:24and here
02:25because he was a first round pick
02:27because of all the things
02:28that were going on
02:29it would have been
02:31a distraction
02:32I don't know
02:33if it'll be as big of a distraction
02:34because
02:34even though
02:35they signed him
02:36he's on the
02:37commissioner's exempt list
02:38he's a non-factor
02:39on that team
02:40or that roster
02:41because nobody
02:42nobody there
02:42even knows him
02:43they weren't counting on him
02:45no
02:46so this is
02:47this is them
02:47gambling on
02:49if he is able to play
02:51in the future
02:52we'll see what we got
02:55so it's
02:55it's
02:56yeah
02:56it's
02:56it's
02:56it's a non-issue here in Detroit
02:58the Lions did the right thing
03:00I'm not going to say
03:01the Seahawks did the wrong thing
03:02by signing him
03:03and I was asked an interesting question
03:04of
03:05you know
03:05because I know that Dan
03:06took some heat about saying
03:08yeah he's a good guy
03:08all this stuff
03:09and yet he's facing
03:10these kidnapping
03:11and assault charges
03:12um
03:12when I was on with
03:14with Brock Huard
03:15and they were considering
03:16signing him
03:17uh
03:18he asked the question
03:19like if I had just given you
03:21the rundown of the charges
03:23and I said
03:24pick somebody
03:25on
03:26the Lions
03:27how far down the roster
03:28would I have gone
03:29before I
03:29thought it would have been
03:30Terryon Arnold
03:31and I said well
03:32from everything that I know
03:33you
03:33you would have gone way down the list
03:35before you got to Terryon Arnold
03:37and it's just
03:38it's
03:39it's unexpected
03:39part of why he is out
03:42and not
03:43tethered
03:44or not
03:44waiting jail
03:45is because
03:46Nick Saban
03:47got there
03:48as a character witness
03:49and was talking about
03:50how
03:50the individual
03:51that he knew
03:53at Alabama
03:54yeah look
03:54I mean we were disappointed
03:55in him as a player
03:56but I
03:57I always thought of him
03:58as like a high character guy
04:01prior to this
04:01that's
04:02like I remember the story
04:03about him and his high school janitor
04:04like I mean he goes back
04:05and helps the guy out
04:06and has a great
04:07Miss Terry loves him
04:09right
04:09Nick Saban's wife
04:10and I thought like
04:10okay you're right
04:11he wouldn't have been
04:12near the top
04:13or even middle of the list
04:14of lions
04:15I would have suspected
04:15would be involved with it
04:16but you get involved
04:17with the wrong people
04:18you'd end up doing
04:19allegedly some really dumb things
04:21that's all it takes
04:22unfortunately
04:22it's a lesson
04:25that all
04:26all should take a look at
04:28but especially young athletes
04:29and I tell my kids this
04:30all the time
04:30you got to be careful
04:32who you surround yourself with
04:33because
04:34if they don't have
04:35as much to lose
04:36as you do
04:37their decisions
04:38are going to be
04:39much different
04:39than yours
04:40I gotta tell you
04:41a little humor on this
04:42I would love to see
04:43your list of players
04:44ahead of them
04:47that's kind of a thing
04:48that we use
04:48like when that
04:49sort of questions asked
04:50you never would have
04:51thought of
04:51and this guy
04:52who would you
04:55nobody ever provides
04:56that list
04:57nobody
04:57of course
05:00what are you trying
05:00to say about
05:01insert player
05:021, 2, 3, 4
05:04no
05:05well J-Mo
05:06is at the Coney
05:06too late
05:08you had to mention
05:09the names
05:11fireworks
05:12I don't want to be
05:13used fireworks
05:13how about firearms
05:14he did get in trouble
05:15for that too
05:15imagine cookies
05:16that goes on the show
05:17and he goes
05:18yeah I mean
05:18I would have thought
05:19J-Mo definitely
05:19would have done this
05:20beforehand
05:20that's not what I said
05:21he's out at 3am
05:23at Coney's
05:24he's lighting up
05:25fireworks
05:26unbelievable
05:27anyway
05:28that's the
05:29Terry on Arnold update
05:319 o'clock hour
05:32I got a question
05:32about Michigan football
05:33and I want you
05:34to think about this
05:35expectations for year 1
05:37old school college
05:38football thinking
05:39would be
05:39you gotta let a guy
05:40get 3 or 4 years
05:42under his belt
05:43recruit his own players
05:44yeah
05:45today's college football
05:46man
05:46it's year 1
05:47rip off the band-aid
05:48bring your own guys in
05:50and I gotta see
05:50results immediately
05:52my question for
05:53Michigan football
05:53and you tell me
05:54fair or unfair
05:55the playoffs are the
05:56standard
05:57gotta make the playoffs
05:58even though it's
05:59year 1
06:00even though the
06:01schedule's tough
06:02you gotta beat
06:03people
06:03you're at Michigan
06:04you wake up and you
06:05win 8 games
06:05automatically
06:06you gotta beat a
06:07couple people
06:07on a tough schedule
06:08you have to develop
06:09a 5 star quarterback
06:10you gotta bring in
06:12support staff
06:12and pieces
06:13and players from
06:14Utah
06:14you gotta beat
06:15the Indiana's
06:16Ohio State's
06:17Oregon
06:17not all of them
06:18but some of them
06:18Penn State
06:19Iowa
06:20Oklahoma
06:20some of them
06:21it's how
06:22Kirk Signetti
06:23and Indiana
06:25has infected
06:26all of college
06:28sports
06:29not just college
06:30football
06:30and you look at
06:31Dusty May
06:32in 2 years
06:33he puts together
06:34a national championship
06:36Kirk Signetti
06:37in 2 years
06:38puts together
06:38a national championship
06:39and there are some
06:40examples
06:41and maybe this year
06:42there could be some
06:43examples of that
06:44happening yet again
06:45teams contending
06:47immediately
06:47because you have
06:49a new coach
06:50who brings in
06:51his own players
06:52Matt Campbell
06:53at Penn State
06:53I think a lot of
06:54eyeballs are going
06:55to be on him
06:56in regards to
06:57Kirk Signetti
06:58did this at
06:59Indiana
07:01with JMU
07:03transfers
07:03right
07:04can Matt Campbell
07:05do this at Penn State
07:07which is typically
07:08a bigger brand
07:09should be one
07:10that is always
07:11a football powerhouse
07:12and he is also
07:13coming from
07:14another power
07:16five
07:16power four
07:17now
07:17conference
07:18and team
07:19from Iowa State
07:20Penn State
07:21has a much
07:21easier schedule
07:22but I guarantee
07:23you their
07:23expectation
07:24in year one
07:24for their coaches
07:25make the college
07:26football playoff
07:27their preseason
07:28number 18
07:28two spots
07:29behind Michigan
07:30he may just
07:31simply be
07:31hey you know
07:32you beat a ranked
07:32opponent
07:33and it's a success
07:33in year one
07:34I mean they're
07:35going to play
07:35Marshall Temple
07:36Buffalo
07:37before they get
07:39the conference play
07:39where they start
07:40with Wisconsin
07:40and Northwestern
07:41we are
07:43going to the
07:44playoff
07:45look
07:45and they don't
07:47play Ohio State
07:48they don't play
07:48Oregon
07:49they don't play
07:49Indiana
07:50they're better
07:50positioned
07:51but the standards
07:51are you got to
07:52make the college
07:53football playoff
07:53in the new
07:54landscape
07:54with the expanded
07:55playoff
07:55with the transfer
07:56portal
07:56year one
07:57at Michigan
07:58you got to
07:59make the playoff
07:59is that fair
08:00or unfair
08:01248-539-9797
08:03my answer is a
08:05little bit longer
08:06so I'm going to
08:07wait till we get
08:08on the other side
08:08of the break
08:09but I do want
08:11to make mention
08:11this this is a
08:13different con
08:14there's two
08:14conversations that
08:15we could have
08:16will they or
08:18won't they make
08:19the college football
08:20playoffs or is
08:21the standard in
08:23year one for a
08:24new coach in
08:25Kyle Whittingham
08:25is the standard to
08:27make the college
08:27football playoffs
08:29and I want to make
08:30sure we separate
08:30those two
08:31conversations
08:31yeah what you
08:32expect to happen
08:33could be different
08:35than what the
08:36standard should be
08:36at a place like
08:37Michigan 248-539-9797
08:41we'll discuss
08:41want your feedback
08:42it's 97-1
