The following. Here's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Cowboys. This is the Players Love, broadcasting live from Dallas Cowboys World Headquarters at the Star. Now your hosts Barry Church, Danny mccraig, heck Ma Harrison and Knew he scruggs. Let's right, players last, Players lives on a Wednesday. Heck Ma Harrison. I'm new he scrugs. And we've got you too about the players last,

We've got ourselves a former player. We've got a man that has three Super Bowl rinks who never wears them. Where are they at? Nate Newton? There was some boxes you paid a bank to keep for you. Are you supposed to be It's supposed to be free long as you got an account. Yeah, but it seemed like I see every year something comes out of my account. Yeah, service fee. Yeah, you'll never just go by there and

just put it on one. I thought I had one out, and I thought I had lost it, and I told my wife and I got my key and I rushed over that all three of them was in there. Man. I had a whole lot of stuff in there of value. But you know, once you pass away. Somebody else would get it? Who cares? You know what? Put me in your will? Nate three, you only get one? Which one would you want? Man, I'm gonna go let's go ninety five? Mm? Can I have that one? Yeah? Man? Your money right?

Money tight you? I love the second when you guys got that was that was a sweet ring. I love that second with the mister Jones started that big rain theory. Yeah, every since that, every sport I just show did you see what the Warrior's got another night? Oh? That they're pretty? Yeah? Pretty. I didn't want to watch it because this makes me so mad with other They got the floating head, they

got the thing. They don't sweet that thing man, rams one. Look, I'll tell you who else has a really good one? Is um Colorado Avalanche. I I gotta get there. I gotta look at it. Jostin's by the way, I don't know if you guys know, but Johnston makes all a whole bunch of championship rings NCAA. They're right here in town. Wow, They're located right here in the metroplex. So so I need I need to find that. We go over there. Man.

It just just look because I never got myself a wedding band for my wife, so I need to go over there and just get a wedding band. Man, Yeah, no, they make some. I'm gonna get man to you guys ask my question. Well, okay, we'll dive into that. So heck man I where it was? Hecks. I d say, hey, man, let's see if Nate can come on. Mary Church, Danny McCray. I'm like, yeah, yeah, Nate's got the show before, so let's bring Nate in here. And I immediately said, I

want to dive into your expertise. So here we are six games into the season. The Cowboys are forty two, third place at the NFC East. Right now, you got undefeated Philadelphia on top. Giants lost one game there in second place, Cowboys the third even though they beat the Giants. Give me grades right now. Six games in. For the offensive lineman, let's start with left tackle Tyler Smith. I think he's a B plus because and I'm greating him easy,

very easy, because what I saw from training camp. He's much better what I've saw what he's learned, especially to the inside move. I was so weary. I thought this problem would be outside with the holding, but he was acceptable to the inside move. He's cut that down a lot. He's cut down his miss blocks of not knowing who to get. He's he's gotten much better on that. So I give him like a B plus, a B plus,

and that's high. That's high because I really want to say a B. You know, I really want to say a B, but a B plus because his effort is great. Is effort is great. What he asked to the run game, man, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go, Nate, you get him a B plus, I'm gonna have to go B plus. I think with the pressure that was on this young man starting the first game of the season, I think the expectation was very low, especially from the way that he looked at guard. I don't think nobody trusted him

at the guard position. But then booting him out to the left tackle, I thought he did a really good job. I mean, and I think I don't know the exact numbers. Maybe two sacks that he's giving up, maybe it's definitely more than that, but three sacks, but he's in those sacks have come versed the best in the business. So I think he's handled this business. I think he's looked really solid and run and so I'm gonna go B

plus as well. I think about my fear. And we you and I spoke about this training camp, is okay, do you just leave him at one spot? You're gonna try and cross training and you and I said, look, just leaving the spot, just leaving with the guard. They left him at guard. And he didn't get any reps at all during training camp for preseason games at left tackle. And we're not talking about him a whole lot here. We're not talking about Tyler Smith a whole lot, which

to me, heck, that's isn't that the story? But we don't hear about you when we're not talking about you. You're doing good? Yeah, Oh he got he got beat up. He got beat by Aaron Donald. Uh yeah, everybody. I mean, you know, let's got one hundred second. Let's just long here. That is why he That is why you have to play the game. Because I said on our show before the pre game, and I did, and I told everybody what was gonna happen. I say, went when he moved, he got to play him for the pot for the

bull rush. I would have made him run over me, I said, Westcomb kill this kid at the left tackle. When he see Aaron Donald all six foot one of him, two hundred and eighty pounds, he not gonna respect his speed. His first four steps are lightning and that's what caught him, not once, but twice. Danny figured it out. Yes, so let's stay at the left tackle position. Gave Tyler Smith the B plus both of you. Jerry spoke favorably about Tyrann Smith, huh, saying he's getting healthy, and Jerry, he

has spoken about Tyron Smith coming back in December. Here's a team that's playing good football right now. Nate, how do you handle that position? If it comes December and Tyren Smith comes and says and the train saying it's medically clear to go, he's ready to play. What do you do. I'm gonna let coach Fieldman figure out what you can't he play another position because Tyler Smith gonna stay mine. It comes upoint in your life where this

guy is healthy, he is not banged up. I can see if Tyler Smith was nursing something and he said, okay, yeah, we got the perfect replacement. But if he ain't nursing nothing, he'd feel one hundred percent I ain't playing those games. I don't play offensive line games. If you've shown me that you were my future and you were doing it on a high level, b are better. I ain't changing you. I can live with your faults. Heck, you know, Look,

it's hard for me to argue with Nate on anything. Man, I just want to say that, Look, the future is now, and I think for the last couple of seasons we've been thinking that Tyren Smith, we knew that he was gonna miss a few games, and we just would live with that. So the swing tackle position became that much more important. The conversation about who is the swing tackle became that much more important. Now we're not talking about that because I believe everybody is confident in Tyler Smith

and what he's doing. I'm with you, Nate on that. Let's find out if Tyren Smith is willing to play another position. Can't he go inside to guard? Can't he go out to right tackle? That's That's what I'm thinking right now, because we got the guy. So this makes me to ask the next question I put it to you. Heck, is this a Romo Dak type situation at the left tackle spot? Where here it was with Tony Romo and he was just getting hurt on routine plays. Here comes Dak.

You get on a role and you clearly see this is the future, and they decided to actually stay with Dak Prescott. Are we seeing the same thing at left tackle? No. I think the writing's been on the wall at the left tackle position for years, for a lot of years. So I think we've been having, like I said, the

swing tackle position. People were ticked off that in the in the draft that we got Micah uh if we didn't get a cornerback, that we didn't get one of those other tackles that was in that draft, the slater and the guy that we're gonna see, Yeah, and we guy that we're gonna see from Detroit. I mean, there's there. There had been opportunities for the Dallas Cowboys to get a left tackle and we passed on him. We didn't go out in free agency and get any left tackles.

We hadn't Inseci and guys like that for years and years, knowing that the durability of our left tackle was always in question. That I think we hit paid. We hit gold with Tyler Smith, and you know, we should a lot like ny said, let's not mess with the continuity, uh, and mess with his head. He's our left tackle going forward, man, he said, he said a mouthful, bro I'm rolling with

you there. The only reason we are four and two set up perfect for Dak is because our defense number one consistency in the offensive line, number two in the run game. That is a manufacturer from Zeke Poler in the offensive line. Three. Okay, so left tackle Tyrean Smith, a B plus grade is given. Now let's move over to the right tackle spot, Terrence Steel, go C plus B plus. If it was just a running game, if you didn't have to pass none, I would give him an A. But I gotta give him a C plus.

He's a great run block and he would kill you. Spend it on duce blocks with the right guard, Oh, he would crush you. But when it comes to just if we have to throw that ball back to back to back, C plus back, and I'm gonna, you know what, I just to change it up from what Nate said right because I can't do this whole thing right behind Nate, I'm gonna go be minus. And the reason I gonna be minus on him, I think back to what you were talking about before, We're really not talking about Terrence

Steele other than penalties. You know, that's your bugga boo with him, is he gets penalized way too much. I think he's been solid in the running game and he really hasn't been our Achilles Hill in the passing game as much. So I'm gonna go be minus with him. And you know, I think he just him like Tyler Smith, He's just as gonna get better as the more reps he gets in, the longer he stays in the starting rotation. So we spoke about Tyrn Smith and we've said Tyren

Smith stays at left tackle. That's where you guys both I mean the Tyler Smith stays left tackle the rookie. So if you're giving that type of grade to Terrence Steele, do you entertain putting Tyron Smith at right tackle a position then he started off as a rookie with the Cowboys. I would entertain that. And the reason I would entertain that is just draft. How we drafted the player that we're talking We got one it's a first round pick and the other one that said an undrafted free agent.

I would still entertain even the left guard position because I still don't believe that. We feel as though we've solidified the position, although karam a government is doing a decent job. I would look to see if that he'd have any interest in that or at right tackle. I wouldn't make it a competition. He make the decision to go with it, and that's where I stay. That's the last thing you said I agree with. I don't play this play a little bit, now get it. If you

can go line up, put him at right tackle. We've seen him successful there. Let him play right tackle every snap. Stop with this ramp up. I don't know where that foolishness thing came. They get your quarterback hurt, they get your running backs out of the way. Put him at right tackle. That's the only place I will entertain him at this time. At right tackle. Okay, left guard. See see, he's a guy that gives you great effort. Yes, he gives you great effort. He knows who to block, he

gives you maximum effort. He's gonna play hard all the time. I give him a C C. Yeah, I'm not gonna give him a felling grade. I'm gonna go see minus for Connor mc governor. It's just man we just need as much as we have. And it's not fair to judge anybody with Zack Martin. It's just that you want to have that kind of power at your left guard position again. And he has held his own trust me versus the commanders. He got bull rushed to death and he stood in there. He did he did a good job.

But you know, I still gotta give him a C minus all right, center position. See, same guy. He's gonna give you all the guys. He's gonna be susceptulus to the bull rush. And then once you get him leaning, any quick moves, snatch grab, gonna get him. So Ce Tyler bar C, I'm you know what, after seeing Kelsey from the Eagles, I gotta give him my f man. Know, I just man, I gotta what you're talking about? All world? I know average, Yes, I know, man. It is him

where he's at, right, I'm just had to go. This is Christ comes. We meet them where they're at, meeting where they're at, all right, Ce minus D plus all right? All right, he brought you brought the Christ in two. It's all by the upgrading players. Heck, but you said

something yesterday. I want Nate to jump in on it, and and heck was spoke about how Connor Williams left goes to center with the Miami Dolphins and he is excelling there and you are and you had a guy that you were actually bringing in centers and talking about it here. So okay, the looks given me my answer. How does this happen? I guess that's my next question. Nick. We made a big mistake somewhere in the communication, somewhere

in teaching our techniques. We didn't help this kid. The season is still not over, and the first game of the year for Miami. I was glued to the TV to one person and I was the center. My wife, why are you watching this game so hard? I see it because it Connor goal to Miami and b I above average center. That's gonna that's and I know we don't care once they leave those people over there, once

they leave the building, not our problem. But you got to look back and say where if you're going to be a better coach, a better a better scout scouting director, you gotta say, whether we go wrong, we picked the right guy, but whether we go wrong, yeah, you got to where does that fall? Is that? Joe Filling the offensive line coach? Is it head coach White McCarthy And could this regime have because I asked about Dorin's armstrong ones,

why are we seeing this? And they and I was told by someone who was with the new regime, Well, we were told he was just a special teams guy. He's gotten opportunities and he's been able to do more. So boom along the way. He had to play. We played him and he took off. How does that miss? I mean? And organizations do this? You know, not the first I mean the Steelers cut Johnny and Nitis. You can miss, you can miss. So so how does that happen?

And what do you do to fix it? To replicate that, you have to always have an open mind and more importantly, don't be a coach that say you have a plan for a player. Dan Quinn what impressed me about him when I first met him? I said, coach, you went out and got Bohanna, and you went out and you got this guy. You already got Gallimore. How do you

see these guys? He said, My plan for them is this, this, this, and this, And then he told me about other guys my plan for the and he used them in training camp how he said, he used them when we used to do preseason games the way he said, so when games came, whether they excelled at how he wanted them to, they were used in that way. We I remember Dance Armstrong coming from Kansas, Am I correct, Yes, he was a penetrator. He was a guy that went up field.

They changed coaching staffs and made him a two gapper. They said, the old Regiam said, we're gonna give him the chance to get back up field. We never saw it, man. Look, yeah, now it's a big difference. And I guess specifically, I would say it comes down to coaching. You know, Filing has had a tough, tough goal since he's been here, and I think to disconnect maybe with Connor was one that you could point to. Uh, But I just I

gotta give him. I gotta give him credit, you know, because he's right at the ship, and I think he's had success with guys like Terren Steele, and he's had success with Tyler Smith, and so you know, the media does such a good job of tarrying these coaches down when they make a mistake. But you gotta give him, you gotta give him his flowers when he writes the ship and I think he did that with this this group. Oh and today's professional football. If you need to hit

one spot correctly, it's the tackles. Yeah, can you can? You can? You can maneuver and make some things happen. With a center tackles, you gotta be good. I don't agree with that, okay, because I promise you if we go get that. Moster that sits in Philadelphia is stick him in the middle of our office line. No more words, none, whatsoever. He sets a tone a second to none. When you have a center and a left guard, I mean left tackle you. I was a center in a dominant right tackle.

You can set the tone. Explain the fans how you set the tonead My job as a guard are a center, is to protect my tackles. And what I mean by that right there is allowed them to set where everything loops around outside. And the way I do that right there is not have a soft metal if I can. If you hit me, even with a bullrush, and I can stop you within three yards, Now my quarterback can step up because he's already sitting seven yards, he can step up three yards. Moved to us right, moved to

his left. But if you're pushing me back on top of my quarterback, now he cannot step up. Now, these defensive ends got a direct bee line to you. Either quick move out and inside like Michael Parson does a lot, you can't escape. But if me, I used to tell my coach Tony Wise, y'all paying to it and Eric all his money and how to set the table for these cats. I gotta keep this pocket deep. That's my

job is to keep the pocket deep. That's why I give seeds to our left, card and center because they can't. They don't always give our tackles to run around. We need to run around. It's good stuff back there, man, bars, that's good stuff. You know what. Let's go hit a break on now. I need I need to let people need to marinate on. Just take a break, marinate on Nate Newton giving us a lesson in offensive line play. I didn't grade Zach Barton. We already know what. Come

on here a that come on now? Yeah, I saw a couple of times. I know he was going against flesher car. Just my boy, I understand. That's pretty good. Pretty good.

Whether it's on the players lauds.

She's brought to you by Tostitos, Burry Church, Danny McCrae. Have the day off. Cowboys practice at four o'clock today. Mike McCarthy will talk at three. Number four is expected back and I want to know, Nate, when a quarterback takes this type of time off, what should we truly expect in a start against the Lions from Dak. I'm gonna have to ask you this, because I asked everybody this. Do you want the fan do you want my expert opinion? Expert? You want both? I need you know, give me both.

We got you here, right, Heck, take both. Hell, I'm here. I can give them the fan opinion you want. But you want anything inside out our forty going back, we played as though we have Cooper Rush in the game our forty and back. That means all the way from the one to the thirty nine, we play this the way Cooper Rush was playing it. We let the coach call the calls and make the plays. But once we get to our forty, we open our playbook to say, Dak,

these are your shots, these are your times. If you see something better, go forward until you prove me wrong. You have the reins. The fan were running it, and we planned to our defense all the time. You see what I'm saying. It's a professional giving miss rains all the way. I can't do that. Heck, and I yesterday said we want to see we weren't fan inside running. You've got a formula that's working. Now. I got a better quarterback there. Why not keep doing it thirty four

minutes and thirty seconds. Heck, I told you man that that bucked me about the nineteen minutes and thirty fourth we lost it in the first half. You can't. I don't care how good your d is, man, I mean your uncle, a great me and Joe Greene brother, they weren't. You can't leave it great d on the field for thirty four minutes and thirty sex and you have three offensive turnovers. I'm sorry, you can't do that. First nine passes,

two interceptions. You can first play the first time three, and our second time three and our third time five and hour you gay these dudes nineteam and then we then second half you take seven minutes off, they come take seven to thirty four. Then you come through an interception game over, and I hear people saying, Hey, why couldn't the defense get off? Your superstar is hampered. Look at the game. You can tell places where I've seen him run through folks he kind of just barely tackling him,

tackling them. I'm like, yes, don't hurt this kid. Hey, dad, come on back, man, can't hey can't wait to get to the can't wait to get to the Bodley. But my unsupinion has been on this and talking about Kelly Moore. Going into that Cincinnati game, we knew that the game plan had to be conservative and going into the next games he had to be able to show a different look. My opinion has been the team's got the tape on him on Cooper rushes, and once they got the tape

on him, they knew what made him comfortable. Those little out routes on the sideline, those possession routes that he was running. All of a sudden, he's starting to pick those up. But then whether the Eagles do they put him in that cover too man, and they said had a guy over the top and a guy underneath, and he could not get the throws into those small windows. I'm saying that with Dak being in the game, that's

something that he can beat. I'm saying, Dak is in a position, yeah, he can make those throws and that's gonna make our offense better. I think that now this is the first time that the thirty nine. I love what you're saying as far as that is concerning and

the way that Keller More needs to approach this. But my thing is I believe that Dak has had an opportunity to sit over there and watch this this whole time and understand that, hey, and we don't make it if we can play ERA free and that's really hard to do, which that's what Cooper Rush did for those four games. Play era free football. You give yourself an opportunity to win. And Dak understands that, and I don't. I don't think that it's gonna be, you know, Nascar offense.

Let's go out here and throw the ball around fifty times. But I do believe more of the offense is gonna be to open up because he understands it more than I think Cooper Rush did. All right, let me say this, this is the first time. This is the first time that we've had a safety and two corners do they were they went to work, but for them them guys went to work and and and our hour wide receivers did not help we in the second half. My hat's off to kill them. And you know, people know I

don't praise Keller m a lot. He like, know what, I got a few guys on the shoulder, don't either. Look, if you tell you something, I got tight ends. That's gonna try we had to go to our tight ends from so y'all realize in the second half, our wide receivers was not a part of the game. I could see if it was Evan Aaron Rodgers, it would be by designed. But our office, according to say, our receivers

is not doing the jot. What did I say, Michael Gallup to me when I went back and watch it, I was I had questions about whether Michael Gallup is truly healthy because his his his the comeback route, it's his money route. You know, he stops on the diamond come back. But then on that one that was that came that was intercept. I believe it was a tip. Both of the passes, the passes that came to were

targeted to Michael Gallop and those were just routed. I think he was half running came out of his break round. I mean, it just didn't look like thirteen was the same or thirteen to me. I didn't tell tell you about this purposely because I just want your instant reaction, all right, I want you after six games to give me one player. You say I need more from you, go, I got two, Okay, I need more in this position, more than players. I need more from my interior line

against big, big time, big time offenses. I need more for my defense events. I need more from number ninety and I need more from number ninety two. I need more from those suppositions I do. I'm gonna go CD Lamb and Michael Gallup. I knew he gonna take that. Yeah, thank you, brother. I need more from them. I think

Ceedee Lamb is not. When we were talking to Barry yesterday, uh and I said, man, they were playing man and I and I'm thinking about any number one receiver in the league, and you just go through the list of great receiver. Now I got to names because what I'm saying, Mike would have been insulted with with a man, Man, it's something you don't know yet when when we're gonna know, I don't know, but see that it's not when I look at Ceedee Lamb, now you think how you want

to think. But I have to kind of just slow you down. Some people have to earn it. He has not earned the right to be a number one because not because he's not athletically gifted enough to do it. It's because he don't understand the authority and responsibility that comes with it. Yes, and the authority means if I'm an number one, you automatically putting two people on me. They don't do that number two. The responsibility is to beat that devil coverage. He doesn't understand that yet. Gallup,

I'm waiting on next year. We have to give him the same opportunity we give anybody else that went through that type of surgery. Right, Norah Brown has to pick it up a little bit. I'm not expecting none from shots. I'm expecting it all from the rookies. But those wide receivers, how every one of our wide receivers except Nora Brown has to understand if you're going to be a part of this team, you have to catch the small ball, the five and hour, the five and across the little

seam route. You gotta catch shows. Those keeps drives alive for me. Nevil Gallimore defensive tackle. He flashed, but never stay consistent. One of the issues we saw the Philadelphia and team teams are running the ball. Yeah, and that's that's that's an issue right now. I'm a fan of Osa Diezua, but Neville Gallimore is a guy that I look at right now. If I'm Will McClay. This is a spot that I'm looking at the draft heavily here

that we could go first round. Because if they to be a great defense, they can't have that last ride that they had where they went on down the field. He's just kep about running and running in Philadelphia. I mean, if you're going to be a great defense, you can't have that egg. They can't do. Say, you know what, it's time for us to win, rolling on up like the old diesel with John Reid, here we go. You

can't have that. You can't. And so that's what I'm looking at a guy like Devil Gallimo, and I'm saying, if you're trying to win in the playoffs, because you know what playoff football is gonna be about. Run. You think about San Francisco and San Francisco came in here. They don't run the ball. They're running the ball, right, Bullie ball, Nevil Gallimore. I need to see more from you. I need more from you. That's that's man. I'm gonna tell you something. Man. That's why I think this is

the perfect game. I think that if I had to go right now, if I had a stomach ache, I'm going to wall. I'm going to a Walgreens. Are either cvs. I'm running in there on every corner. The Lions ain't on every corner, but they're coming to you when we come out, we come back. I want make Newton to tell us the best get right game when you were

here with the Cowboys. So think about that. Think about it during the break, the best get right game because for the Cowboys after losing to Philadelphia, this is a the Lions and the Bears back to back.

You are not your dad. Your dad was swacked. The old the old swack coaches. They were swack where they did

what they had to do and they won games. You you cannot right about now. It used to be the Patriots way. But guess what, they ain't winning no more. It's the Kansas City way.

of Famer in Ohio. Heck, have you been up there to see the wing on that No? It's nice, man, Yeah, those up a couple when drew a building on that nine. I mean when I come around like I see, people don't know the cowboys built around me. Being at three hundred and seventy eighty pounds, it's a lot to build around. How many cowboys are in the Black College Hall, Jimmy News it's a lot big as Walls myself. It's a few others. I'm missing somebody. I'm missing a few others. Yeah,

I said a lot of cowboys. Did you say Everson Walls? Yeah? Yeah, so and Nate Newton, by the way, played at Florida and m you're in the MEAC right, Yeah, I was in the meacy. Yeah yeah, man. You know what, man, I don't brag often, so I'm not gonna bring man talk y'all talk. Tell you something, man, I look at players today and and I want to say, and this is gonna hurt a lot of people, and I say it on my show because we lose viewers. I want to lose it on I won't want to lose it

on y'all show. So your your former teammate with the Cowboys. You played on Super Bowl thirty with Dean Sanders coaching at Jackson State. Sixty Minutes did a story on him and being over at HBCU. And for me, by the way, Eddie Robinson juniors at Alabama State. Right, I got accepted Alabama State and take the Scotty gave me full Scotts didn't go down there. I I was saddened when I saw what I saw, because this is what we talked about. They meet midfield after the game down to Montgomery. Dean

tries to go in and get him a handshaken. Hell, he pushes him away and Dean's like, what is this? And then press conference, Junior says he's not swacked. That just sadened me because that's not what HBC football, right, It's not And that's and that's and that's all you saw social media. That's that's what made that's like that.

But you know what I know about don and and not knowing him personally, I'm just saying that the person that I've recognized him to be h here in the Metroplex and the player that there's gonna be a good

story that comes out of all of this. And it's gonna be d being instrumental and building that bridge to him because he's been the kind of person that's fault for everything for the swack, whether it be you know, for guys to get training staffs and you know, getting their nameplates on the back of their on the back of their jerseys, all that more than just fighting for Jackson's And this is something that I believe that the mainstream media will blow up. Coaches have moments like that.

We've seen it so many times where coaches have moments in press conferences MiG you know, a handshake after the game they had theirs. But I think as the swacking is more popularity goes towards these programs, there's gonna be

something good that comes up. I have to believe that because I don't want to think that two brothers in a situation like the Alabama State is and in Jackson State is in just the rising of HBCUs that it's going to be that kind of jealousy, or that the story is gonna end with Eddie Robinson Jr. Being seen in that life because he has a tremendous legacy on

his back being Eddie Robinson's son. Let me say this right here, fifties, sixties and early seventies, go check all of the black guys that are in Canton, thank you, and see where they come from. Right What separated us from the white universities was we were not willing to spend the money. They say, we didn't have the money. A state funded school that didn't have the money but had the alumnis to make sure that things were okay,

are at least set. Even the white universities continued to spend and make bigger and better facilities, we as blacks did not. The white universities sell their athletic program along with their education. Most black universities don't. The white universities set a part of their take from from academics towards their sports. The most black universities don't. So for us to say that it's an uneven playing field, yes and no, it's what you it's what you're willing to give back

the time that they're willing to do. I hear Jesse you talk about North Carolina all the time, the tar heels. How he can get a ticket at a moment, notice almost in the front row, just a guy. Most black colleges, you call for a ticket, and you got to call this person, then this person, and this person. But then you'll call me for money. Yeah, all our problems are not white. Some of our problems are black. And until we deal with us, we're not gonna be able to

deal with them. I would tell us Google Google Doug Williams and what happened to Grambling and why he's no longer there. And that speaks to a lot of what what you spoke about. I asked you a question before the break, Nate Newton, what was the best get right game you had when you played for the Cowboys, Because this twenty twenty two Cowboys have an opportunity with a get right game with the Lions coming to town after losing to Philadelphia. That's hardness newer. I can remember you.

I can only think. I can tell you that I'm being so arnest. I can remember all my bad games. I can't. Never Mickey came to me and say, we beat Chicago in the playoffs right after we lost that year ninety one, got lover of sacks, then barely beat the Eagles to get into the playoffs. I remember those two games gets the Eagles because I didn't play well. In the second game. I played okay, but not well.

I remember that game, but not the Chicago games. So whenever we had to get right game, normally all had good game. I can't remember. I just can't remember get right games. But I can tell you about them eleven sacks. I can tell you about the the load left that never materialized. I can tell you that I'm serious, but I can't tell you about the great games. Here's the

get right game. I remember, okay, after they signed him, Yeah, yeah, okay, I think I don't know who it was, but they got in it back and boom, life was good again. That was okay. It was the get right game right there. Here's em. He's back. Charles can take the helmet out the wall of Texas Stadium. Who it was? It was Buffalo, that was that was It was right there, man, a game right there at TM. It was like, I can remember the game with bad games. I can remember good games.

Can't remember. I can't remember because I guess it's such a part of all the party. And I did after the game, just washed off head away. So it's life. Yeah, hey, Nate, thank you for coming on with heck hey man, thank you man. Good stuff. And remember we all swacked brother. It was hex idea man, he said, what about Nate? Get nay. I was like, all right, let me gotta have late fun stuff and appreciate you, all right, remember Harrison,
