00:00shot heard around the world just get the lawyers they will be paid they will book their hours they
00:04will make insane decisions and also it's one of the form true true forms of life is if you don't
00:09get the right answer just keep moving around courtrooms and find a judge that's going to say
00:13okay you can have it done and you can get your way but if you aren't keeping up with the
00:17scoreboard
00:18right now and sometimes it's tough let's go down that path joe the big 12 they spoke on it here
00:23because by the way if you are the commissioner of the big 12 you're trying to rant hey everybody
00:27calm down calm down let's see what we got quote we had a thoughtful and productive conversation
00:33with our athletic directors today as we continue to work through the broader implications of this
00:38situation many of our athletic directors voice their opinions here so i won't read the rest but
00:43what he's saying is hey guys we got to get back under this tent because if we want to make
00:47some
00:47money even though one school is doing wrong we need to look the other way to keep the gravy train
00:53rolling
00:53joe that's what i got out of that tweet and quote and again i mean the big 12 is is
01:00saying everyone
01:01just everyone breathe have some patience here it'll all play itself out meaning donnie there'll be a
01:09million things that happen between now and week zero we'll have forgotten about this he'll play
01:14and it'll all be under it again this is not texas tech or the athletic director or anybody doing
01:23anything that breaks rules here donnie that's the whole thing so holding texas tech accountable
01:29for something they had nothing to do with and didn't break a rule doing it's just the whole
01:35thing is ridiculous and as we certainly now move over to texas tech and you know what i'm gonna take
01:42a second to talk about this one here joe because there are some things you can and some things you
01:46cannot do in sports and like you talk about the golden rule like oh i accepted a uh free cab
01:51ride
01:52that stinks man right or hey man booster came by you know i had a good football game on saturday
01:57uh saw him late at the club late night he sent over a beer oh man you can't do that
02:02but the one thing
02:03that you absolutely can't do is place wagers on a game that you're even involved in if inside
02:10information your team for or against you cannot do it so how about this tweet that comes out here from
02:16the texas tech raiders their official account and it starts showing i don't even have to read
02:20after the first paragraph as we have said before this is from texas tech we do not believe the
02:26circumstances of brandon's case warranted permanent ineligibility so joe i asked this question like
02:33what in their eyes would it be murder oh maybe he can't play for our football team but you are
02:40doing
02:40the one thing that everybody recognizes around the world you cannot cross this line betting on your
02:48own football team while you are a player and they're like yeah but that's not really you know
02:55he shouldn't get banned from that i understand they have to stick up for their kid and who knows
03:00if the booster sent this tweet and said put this out for us but this is just ridiculous like at
03:04no
03:04they should just make hey you know what we'll let the courts play it out like nfl teams will tell
03:09you when their star running back beats the hell allegedly out of somebody right this is ridiculous
03:13though we don't think it warrants ineligibility so i would ask the question what do you think
03:18would warrant ineligibility joe well donnie there's it's not as black and white as everyone wants it
03:28to be here he wasn't the starting quarterback in indiana placing wagers against his team so let's that's
03:35a different bucket than what he is on a practice squad as an 18 year old freshman placing wagers
03:42on games for five bucks it's not the same situation and the idea that this is not going on behind
03:51the
03:52scenes on every team on every level no matter how much they want to say that they're you know it
03:59don't
04:00do that it has been happening forever the idea that college players don't bet either themselves
04:06or threw a proxy on games is absurd i don't know what world you're living in to think that that
04:13doesn't happen it happens he did it when he was 18 my question donnie is why did it take so
04:20long to
04:20figure this out why now all of a sudden did this come out what you should have known that you
04:26had all
04:27this information for how long donnie why now
04:29you
