Out of the four of a radio program moving very quickly on a Monday man feel like I've been here for three hours now we get set to kick up our number four but were always coming to you live from the rocket mortgage Studios will be looking to purchase a new home or refinance yours. Rocket mortgage could help you get there from one solutions that fit your life well rocket can joining us coming up at 9:20 PM Eastern, 6:20 PM Pacific so 20 minutes from now the head football coach from the Marshall thundering herd Charles off to stop by as Marshall got a huge victory this weekend up against Notre Dame. Marcus Freeman off to an 012 started to go back to the bowl game last year. It's over Brian Kelly Owen three to start off is Notre Dame career fitted to an enormous subsets this past weekend were abstained to go down to Texas A&M. That's a heck of a victory by abstained, especially with the weather. They lost last week to then go and play Texas A&M and beat them after the heartbreak of last week that was very impressive and for Marshall to walk into Notre Dame's house and not be afraid of the fighting Irish is really really really telling about the state of the Notre Dame team right now and it's Marcus Freeman's first year given some time to build up things away that he wants to do. I know he was there last year. Brian Kelly's offensive coordinator but you can't lose the Marshall in year one, even though people say okay and your one. Anything could happen. Marcus requires getting a victory is to adjust the fansite for the game was about to be to get my first victory of the season this year and that did not happen, so will talk to coach off which is a great story was at Vanderbilt with James Franklin was at Penn State with James Franklin's Alabama for a few years and out his second year at Marshall, so we will chat with him coming up in a few moments on CBS sports radio. Five questions five answers that even waste five more seconds you get on sides off-site sex taking on the most polarizing issues in sports which side of the line of the phone so drama Dallas choking got their season off to the wrong start of the box 19 to 3 rows was that Prescott was a significant amount of time after getting hurt injuring his thumb lay in the second half if I just quarterback will require surgery. ESP is reporting the timeframe for return about 6 to 8 weeks another two months of Cooper rush rush will presumably be to start moving photons draw sides.

The Cowboys will trade for Jimmy G just give you the schedule for the next 6 to 8 games bangles giants commanders rams Eagles lions, bears, you have a bye week which is very good time by week special for this injury report because then that's only seven games and you give an extra week and that it would be the Green Bay Packers if he's back by that Packers game you take that as a win for the Cowboys now it's up murderers row with the opponents bangles are top brands are top Eagles are top the charts not good.

Chicago is not good. Commanders are good the Giants are good Johnson be Tennessee command Jaguars Chicago beat the Portage crazy Detroit. I guess you could say hung in there with Philadelphia, so it's easy for me to say. Yeah, the Cowboys should go trade for Jimmy Gropper but I don't think the 49ers you be interested in trading Jimmy Coppola right now I am under the belief that trail and should get the entire season, unless there is an injury. I don't know if that's the lid. The 49ers process and how long or short.

The leashes entrée lands, to say the Cowboys will trade for Jimmy GI don't think so. Maybe they go out there in the choir for agent or something like that. But unless they do that. I think it's good to be Cooper rush so the Cowboys will trade for Jimmy G thing off-site, more so on the 49ers but then I wanted to also if you Dallas on my second or third round pick you all in, you get a compensatory third round pick for a nice long walk. At the end of the year for 6 to 8 games when you not win the Super Bowl anyway in the NFC this year. If I'm Dallas, I'm not given up any significant draft capital to go get you a line believe the matter. Well, you get a second round pick for Jimmy G and I often slide he still gets the crap beat out of them not kicked out of they will be going up against lesser defense lines, which is a positive for Jerry and you know him is in a world of positivity.

Go ask Cincinnati's patch of home glass what he thought Cincinnati defense last year and second also, I guess that Prescott could return earlier than possible.

In Jerry's world. One plus one Nichols 302 is really three weeks and he's backing before the buying is that he misses you know only like six games that make 6 to 8 weeks in Jerry's map turns into 1 to 3 weeks. Okay there's a way to know what your right to immediately back in two weeks. I thought Jamaal Adams left the game. See officer 10 three so no Jamaal Adams, Russell Olson at Seattle returning and the only has three points. That's your Super Bowl pick, that's your league MVP right now there is seven minutes ago. In the first half -6.

The Broncos wake up let's go have a bad of a moral victory. But if Seattle covers this right here that's a moral victory for Seattle. They cover the spread tonight to blog about this year but let's go wake up, you need a drink. Let's go, but I Broncos country back to where Zach that so we Broncos country. I say, my impersonation, or they just general rest tries to walk you think with his minty colored suit that that's what made green. It was his interest in said lease.

Maybe you should I get them into the pulled off you some swag that I like.

That's 2001 found the money to afford it. But if you want let you know one and done I am to give away what something about it yet again. Jeff might throw when a check. Looks like the suit that rustled the color of the suit that Russell that's concerning that is considered vehement colored bondmaid a call my doctor documents check that the text you write a very quick so Dr. Tilden target today. I know nobody cares about my fantasy team I go to sit down to set my fantasy football roster yesterday before I lock myself in the CBS sports radio studios for eight hours on nine football and my best friend my best friends is a jackass. I go in applying them to name us. Dr. Teal's doctor tells me moisturizers not kicked his ass while he got kicked Darren Donald PR person that that's what I did to my friend who started the name Dr. Teal's as his fantasy football team that I did see someone sent this to me because I thought no one defend the publicist. Someone sent me a tweet of someone defending the publicist, publicist, mother, I found out that he go back and forth publicist mother would do that would go back and forth with the publicist of the number that's my question, but I saw that the publicist mother was dependably so proud of my daughter look as she handles this talk shows and the talent to break.

Good luck for the publicist I'm shocked her mother's on twitter, Facebook post that okay. A friend of mine sent Balzac wanted no part of that conversation go to the publicist will actually not very nice woman like after George is telling bit in the restaurant said it was not polite at all for Scott Frost Clay Helton squad went in there and got Scott Ross fire which echoed Helton on kind thoughts was and now just got a minimum jump to coach you see the space is a field in the other side of an early-season firing right well because Joseph in one Cornhuskers and I wanted to the season and on Sunday Nebraska's 80 truck Alberts announcer Scott Frost has been fired. The plug they did frosted what a national title at the school also compiled a 13 O CFS apply as a player back in 1997, but let's be clear that you are right now because the coach you would not be getting fired.

He claimed to a national title to coach you see you back in 2017. 13 no, that is, I recognize and he was 16.

Yes, that's also true, outside of Central Florida that the director at Tennessee or anyone at UCF denies that very very very true network as anywhere else got frosted fishes tenure in Nebraska.

16 and 31 is 5+ orders 4+ years in Lincoln going to three games this year on central site Zach Nebraska another need a new head coach should hire urban Meyer to be the next guy off-site. I know urban Meyer everywhere he goes he wins with the state of urban Meyer I know it takes is one desperate athletic department. I guess that he can for Nebraska in that category but go get like a young up-and-coming coach and tried again and see if they can have success telling stoops to go there. I don't think Campbell's good ago there by make a run there yeah you said Bill O'Brien.

I agree with that. I think Bill O'Brien even knows that young up-and-coming yet success in the short time at Penn State goes to Houston as the coach of the Texans was a good coach just was not a good general manager I know you could recommend LCL the program a little bit different in college I Thaksin think Bill O'Brien as the what I think of the realistic options could be the best goodness or Bill O'Reilly of the trade, your best receiver Freud for something and often injured running back, or back bowls are short so we can is it almost is one game left as we hear these cooking take that Pete Carroll Jerry Judy Jerry Judy.167 yards. Bad touch the last year that's correct Alice. He kisses that ground injected six. It happened to my thing. There were those go back to we never won a bunch of bad losses start the season. Job returnable file over five times Evan McPherson had his game-winning extra point blocked and later in overtime is to game-winning 29 yard field goal. Steelers stole that when Addison Saturday to fill the lid of the game the Coldspring and that Ryan kinda bring some stability, consistency will they tie the Texans 2020.

Rogers clearly missed about Adams because they lost to the Vikings 23 seven Dallas gorgeous three points and lost a game and their quarterback Jack Prescott to thumb injury. Cardinals are thought by a new look she's off into the 49ers lost to one of if not the most hapless team in NFL. The Bears draw site Zach.

The Bengals suffered the worst loss week one to say no because I look at the cowboys. I know they lost to the Buccaneers but you could say that their season is already over when you lose that Prescott but I think the two worst losses from this weekend and technically the Colts were not a loss. It was a tie but I would say it's the 49ers losing to the Bears and in Tennessee losing to the giant specimen. They were up 13 to nothing in the four guys are up to nothing, are not insurmountable lead with the state of both those offenses yeah you would've thought the game was in the bag so no Bengals bosses, bad because they look like they're having killed there and with the game and you lose the game in overtime. It's a bad boss puts out the worthless of Warsaw's the weekend Saturday.

Saw a few big upsets in college football is absent took the number six Texas A&M 1714, College Station yeah ghostwrite the Aggies struggled mightily in offense say Nelson Aguilar.

I've had enough of him from his entire career for me.

No, not Alice Nelson Aguilar, but instead the Aggies offense compound is 186 yards of total offense entire game also turn the ball over twice Spain's King only 97,000 very bad to really bad when Texas A&M's fine state, state and UNC was a shootout. It was 63, 61, it was while those of the only upset though Marshall went to South Bend as 20 1/2 point underdogs and beat the Irish straight up 2621 for argument there would biggest win in program history. As I Jack Jimbo Fisher the most overrated coaching possible.

He's getting close. But it's still the man that lives in Happy Valley. James Franklin the difference. Jimbo Fisher is a national championship albeit with Florida State about years ago when he and Jim Swenson.

But for now it's James Franklin, off-site, and finally the revenge game did not go as Baker Mason planned as the rounds, no, no, we did not.

The Browns are the ones doing the S and up they beat the Panthers 26, 24 on the back of Acadia lauric 58 yard field goal that Baker struggled mightily early on this game one point his stat line read six or 13 for 27 yards and one interception at his credit, he did rally the Panthers for 17 points in the fourth quarter, DJ and the Panthers were up by one with a minute 13 left lots. The carillon defense logic code percent March on the field is of the field will also draw site Zach you're more disappointed in the Panthers, then you were impressed by the breath yeah on sides because the Panthers have a good defense and you can't let Jacoby percent beach and offensively. It's embarrassing that it took 30 minutes to get the offense going in Christian McCaffrey didn't do much in the game and they should be run the football board with so yeah I was more disappointed the Panthers in parts of the Browns only be clear here is all Zach just offense Panthers all the time because he knew Matt when he was in college I love metal I'm opening a success, but you have to win this week must win for Carolina this week you lose to the giant giant just because you start your year losing Jacoby percent and Daniel Jones. That's a miserable way to start off your campaign in your number three so I more disappointed the Panthers and press by the Browns break talking about disappointment in them being impressed if you are a better Notre Dame is that you're disappointed but if you're a fan of Marshall your impressed there at football coach Charles Huff will join us on the listening to the second show weekend of college football and maybe the best story from the weekend was Marshall going to Notre Dame and taken down the fighting Irish now joining us.

It's his second year as the head coach at Marshall and he is coach Charles Huff coach appreciate the time. Thank you for coming on the Zach Gelb shown congratulations no family man we want we can guide played really hard to get a great job getting ready to get out of their woodwind medical great weekend. Great start to the old great guy. Now you coaches work.

I knew you were to say that we got ready to move on to Bowling Green.

I really want you to appreciate this moment from Saturday expand a little bit further how you put it into words what that when means for your program. Yeah, I think anytime you can you know the players a reward for their hard work and action.

We continued scraping or I had been working really hard January and all people can go out and got a get a reward note telling them being the lady great. They can obviously continue bringing light, great university degree program here will lead to great Rick community you'll feel that the community will writer asked her to positive. Whenever you have a team going to Notre Dame you wonder if the stage is good to be too big.

When did you know that your team is good to be ready for that moment because I didn't sense any fear watching for my couch from your football team know I think you know I think talk with most things a little bit intimidation factor oh, you know, having no small schools, gone the way the transfer portal 21st on our team.

So me 24 archive and he played in some type of big Arena stadium became so three guys in Florida. He got paid a guy from Purdue adding those kind of got a 40 played in the war but I think what happened, relieve some of the anxiety of God leading the and you got that you know that that the time is changing with the proposal and now you're getting multiple different levels of experience multiple different levels of multiple different levels of big game think I could really help. So it's one thing to have players from other programs that big-time experience, but to be able to get them to jell together so quickly is another tough task, how did you guys developed at synergy so quickly this early on in the season and recruiting you know we don't recruit anybody in our program report building does have a previous relationship with weather that they were clear whether that code erratic transferring from the connection you like to bring in new people and recruiting and make it our program for games get here I'll call Kirk on the golf challenge. The older guy everybody to play and operate standard in which we operate from our coaching on the fieldwork classroom academic man. You know all the right how to create value for that unilateral doing right create create value for them that you combine the things a previous relationship.

You know that lockable and cunning, golfing, and then getting them there hundred and you know is going to create value from I think you get complete body easier to reinforce what you make it easier it will Charles talk to your thoughts's program. Marshall in his second season at a huge victory up against Notre Dame this past weekend coach when you're walking off the field and you know you've won the game and I know in the final three minutes.

It looks like you guys are good but the clock is winding down when it finally gets a zero celebrate with your team. You're walking off the field just what's going through your mind laid out what the player you know there's a lot of people get to this point, you know, administration supporters and players and coaches and the leader you're planning your plot, but you know it works but for everybody. You need a little you know where we were to show up. And those are the moments that you know we we were able to get everybody to find you and everybody, like their leader.

You are happy because you know a lot of the players a lot of people in the organization brought in blindly really didn't know what was going to work and work it kind of is a good no humbling moment to see your players, your staff, your administration all get to enjoy you know such a local moment for this universe to take a while for it to sink in. Like reality right now that you guys be Notre Dame you know coaching cliché as it sounds.

You know what kind of you prepare your play already execute successful game that really we got back here to honey. Your poor stadium landed monumental the history of this place like back to the plane crash on the back to the Xavier game with her victory after plane crash meeting Marshall McBee monumental moment, and a lot of people have been through the ups and down this place and all and stick their checks out a little bit higher. What was really the best message that you got after the victory weather was tax someone important: you, I got a message from a couple of young thundering herd. Maybe you know they told me. We all bring this university back when it was down and today you know we got our reward watching you guys play today and think about the history of general you think back to how you can send it this place and have someone who was a part of that history to commend you for creating another historical moment for them. Unbelievable to hear coach Charles Huff here with us from Marshall.

I want to give some spotlight to some your players Stephen Joe Marino football is in his bloodline with the way that his blood brothers played for a long time in the NFL through that pit because I was really something. Yeah, you noted that something we see all the con with you Maury all thrown ball or late ball practice for me, all you can take your pack RDB code is really been working on the fundamental three-step with the Londa departure to take back to the ball and how do you know you don't lose the tackle, but you can you make a play on the ball and then see him go through fundamental the technique to perfection and make a became closing player game changing play for sure you not seen it happen in practice. Probably way too many times like this please somebody else got to have that thing feel I tobacco born we know these once at Florida State and they said the broadcast last year he was driving over 163 yards and a touchdown.

Tell me little bit more about your running back.

You know you have grounded multiple going a lot better than a phenomenal job you got the camp probably been one of the most appreciative young man that we have in our program just because of where he comes from, you know what the success got injured party that you went to college wasn't in was driving to work and work back before the degree you know battled another injury to junior-college you know fighting Taconic get recognized again to be picked up by another college to give them an opportunity and luckily we had a situation out the transfer portal or recruiting in and we had a really good place ship he just reached out and she got back year. I called them late in the process of scholarship tomorrow and he come in and done everything we do and players on your team that you can see people talk about what you can see him living out is why Charles up here with us that football coach at Marshall you met your time at Penn State. I know you're with James Franklin. Also at Vanderbilt.

How did you hook up with coach Franklin and and what he means your coaching career mentor my career and I was working on their opportunity came open and because of my time working Very often see a spot you know I was old enough to be able to take it my career, followed him, but he's actually the one who gave me my first opportunity at a job you hate to start and I left the building that Western Michigan State he called me and probably you know honestly gave me the first opportunity to coach on the main stage at national and state that forever indebted to him because he followed me a long time ago gave him the confidence to recruit some really good players and one beacon check ship in 2016. That would've been possible if you didn't you give me the opportunity Taconic get my career started to link up with coach Nick Sabin and what your takeaways from opposite legendary coach you know that Mississippi stated we recruiting that conference. You know once you've done something new.

People start looking. You know I got a call about talking with able to join the staff and probably Dr. level coaching probably had the most impactful, you know, part of my coaching career in philosophy. What we see discipline and routine, the biggest thing that I picked up the same analysis we could talk for 45 days, but your approach and disciplining your routine and that's why you say it's cliché but you know where we focused on how we be Notre Dame not repeat repeat only prepared really well during the week we played really hard and executed and that's what we got really well: Green we got a play really hard.

I know that sounds very clear, whatever it may be, could save plan prepare to play Georgia in the plane that will yield the same routine.

The same focus the same attention to detail will come. Clearly, you got a great experience when you took the job at Marshall. He always wonder if it's the right because there can be a really good coaching prospect, but maybe just not the right fit. Why was Marshall the right fit for you think you know in tradition here at Marshall past behind the plate plan recognition felt like it was a stable foundation so the recruiting standpoint, the brand is recognizable.

They may not know where Marshall is quickly probably trigger Randy Mall left with Jared Pennington plan is recognizable.

Then again, I think the foundation is that here you know the warning losing program championship games were with people you know that engagement you know you want to be able to get people excited about your program. I think the fancier with this football team in the University because of the history that it makes it really easy to recruit and really easy to attract the right. They come here in the thing and you know some on the community feel and give them a chance to chase her train level and then you know when you recruiting coaches you recruit really good coaches and they for me it was a really good opportunity. I had about other opportunities that didn't work out right fit. But for me, my focus my vision. My process what they were looking for blue also not of that week for the conference right know me honestly Dayton Georgia Southern playing phenomenal actually helps focus in this game you know because sometimes you school when you think you yeah make out again with the wake-up call you well know, we do you know a couple weeks ago but think what to do is understand that the process in which we operate in every single week is more important than the opponent and hopefully we can kinda replicate the right process each week that love the game this past weekend. Love your stories well really do appreciate the time. Congratulations. Good luck the rest like a Charles off. Thank you Matt. I appreciate your manual to tell you.

I appreciate the market you to get people everyone fired up. Nice job, thereby Charles off doing things that don't show on CBS sports radio. Usually I say you gotta come on three times to be a friend of a shell when you're same with the best radio show in all the land that rule right away your best friend here on CBS sports radio listening to the second show is taking stock of the sports world. It's time to find out against Florida in the swamp. Heckuva job for coach stoops what what he's done with this Kentucky program.

He continues to be one of the more underrated coaches in the country stock up marks. I got to get a little love to my temple owls to get their first victory of the season. The box I've never seen this before, Ryan had not one, not two but three blocks in the game that's believable. One flyer block three months. Also Kurt Warner's kid Elijah Warner.

He got into the game and now is QB one for the owls thrown a touchdown pass early on was all excited and stand rating gets his first victory as that coach of the temple owls stock up mouse JJ McCarthy I know was up against Hawaii, but he was surgical and it's about damn time that Jim Harbaugh named Tim the starting quarterback give a stock up the JJ McCarthy wasn't ready for Alabama thought for a minute there to lose and then the argument. The two best players in the country stepped up amid playful interest in junior and Bryce Young give those two stocks up another 20 laid the points of the Trojans, mine is not an 1/2. Chip Ching, Caleb Williams, 20/27, 341 yards and four touchdowns and Jordan Addison seven receptions for 172 yards and two counties stock up that dynamic duo. What can't Justin Jefferson's justice.he starts off the year with that 70+ yard TD's that I got another one later in the game at nine Hundred and 84 yards and two touchdowns as the Vikings smack the Cheeseheads give a stock up Justin Jefferson Fitzpatrick scored a touchdown off the panic that had the crucial game saving PAT block just unbelievable stock up to make a Fitzpatrick is the Steelers get a victory over the bangles, the reports of Patrick Mahon's in the Kansas City Chiefs demise are greatly exaggerated.

First, given the applicant's Cardinals in the desert homes. Not one, not two, not 3 to 45 passing touchdowns give a stock up the padding homes day ball but is cojones on the table and it worked going for two giant get the victory of the Tennessee Titans stock up the brine table. I can't believe they beat the 49ers. That's what happens you get rid of Matt Maggie and Ryan pays great supposedly but when Damon and one victory. Baylor should be BYU like shipment was unbelievable coming was run over and over and over and over again sucked out the Baylor Bears Notre Dame loses the Marshall coach was excellent on the show a few moments ago Texas and then they lose the State will stock down to Notre Dame and Texas A&M got cross job.

His alma mater says, but by that tenure is over. Give a stock down to the former Nebraska head coach of the Green Bay Packers will Sarah Rogers and the Packers doing wide receiver stunk line was no good. Another missing Bakhtiar you Jenkins. I don't think it's time to press the big fat red panic button because the Odyssey stinks the man abysmal performance by the Green Bay Packers stock down the drama Dallas choking Cowboys one game in the seasons over Zach Prescott now 6 to 8 weeks you have Cooper rush is the quarterback in the bangles next week and you have a PO Job borrow stock down to the drama Dallas choking Cowboys patriots offense Mac Jones killed a lion stunk.

Patricia's a bozo judged to be coaching special-teams bill. What are we doing here one game against the Dolphins defense of 85 Bears stop down the patriots offense.

The Colts calls. They tied Texans to keep what the heck is stock down Robert Sala. Now this is just the gym. He says the Jets lost to the ravens. The ravens didn't beat the Jets but one thing if you drop the football at the goal line.

This game was a blowout Robert Sala what are you doing stock down and I know that this game is far from over.

The second half is just underway currently the Seattle Seahawks Regina Smith is the starting quarterback leaving the Broncos 17 to 13 everyone talks about how great this Broncos defenses. Gino spent the last time he was in the starting quarterback for a long period of time to punch in the John's jaw broke that it is no wonder the starting quarterback Broncos on to go 17 of 18.

In the first after hundred and 64 yards and two touchdowns Broncos defense stock down show on CBS sports radio big banks that will let this the Kentucky quarterback for stopping by today and also the head football coach at Marshall and Charles half if you miss that it is a divisional right to my twitter bio at that Guild CCH GL B when you're there, follow link in the file gives you all of our segments.
