Given our best shot today right here and a BGR Sports Radio 550 -- the program one hour in the books two hours ago. I am -- out the pot -- thanks a lot for joining us Matt Keller producing as usual doing a great job at that rehab Joba -- -- up in just a moment. The talk a little bit about the NFL draft and get his thoughts on the wide receivers are he has in his NFL draft report his blog up on our website. WGR 550 dot com he's updating -- each week with a different position basically what you're doing is going position by position according to. What the gen world. Of what the bills -- he's thirty and pass rushers meaning. -- -- In outside linebackers whether it's a 34 or 43. He's also put wide receivers up this week so we'll get his thoughts on that just a little while we're talking about the Buffalo Bills would you be interest at -- Peyton Manning and -- if and when he does become a free agent they get rid of -- 28 million dollar signing bonus due on March -- from the Indianapolis Colts things deteriorating. Rapidly between. The colts organization in Peyton Manning it's tough to see but. That's what's happening over there in Indianapolis after some comments made by Manning and that Irsay the bonus coming up and having and number one pick Andrew -- all make sense. Peyton -- and probably be in a different uniform next year Miami Dolphins reports are -- interest it. We had earlier reports that the jets of Beatrice did. What do you make every team an instant contender if healthy I think -- what. If healthy I don't see how we couldn't in this league where we've seen what Drew Brees has done for the saints and Aaron Rodgers is doing. But the Packers Eli Manning now for the giants of course Tom Brady. Mean -- Ben Roethlisberger doesn't Pittsburgh. Mean there is a quarterback driven league and you can get that kind of player. And that guy it's healthy like -- any making it's an instant contender now only for the playoffs but beyond. But the question would be would be healthy enough and -- don't know if I'm willing to take that risk even if he's cleared by doctor doesn't mean he's necessarily healthy enough they'll have a lot of decisions and before free agency begins and then once free agency begins and obviously first and foremost is the decision on Stevie Johnson. Arrow jobless -- has talked with CG Laboy given us an update on the Johnson contract situation buddy nix said. In his and the press coverage there was some dialogue between the two sides. The -- said that wasn't. Necessarily case but now he does tell Joseph that they have tough talk they've spoken and not necessarily about contracts Joseph welcome thanks for joining us in annual operate on -- what you heard from seat available in where that stands with -- Johnson in the Buffalo Bills. -- thought that perhaps a bit -- yet Stevie Johnson right now. He is the agency available later on in except now -- can't contract talks to that point in time which. And that it it's it's not meant to alarm people I think I think that's that's the one thing I want to get across the report more update more than anything because. Well you know in the free agency. And and I'm restricted free to beat it usually doesn't eat up. Until around the time votes -- apple scouting combine your or maybe a couple of weeks before it because that approach early start to get on teams that. And then you have rewind it was after what is an -- apple is that and I'm sure there'll be achieved to date and stalking. You know it. On the harsh by. You know just just to see what kind of market like -- there order players in the and so. It's still early but. Put in -- at. -- body checks that started January now it's whether or not that there will be talking that you -- its. Yeah they're they're will continue to be dialogue -- gonna find out there hasn't been any contract talks. So I mean it could be a little bit concerning but this still a long way to go in the process and and CJ even pointed that out he said. Too early to. To tell right now being that these are the built a lot of options they can you -- chart today it can negotiate an extension or a couple of blocks. It's still early but at the right now either of eighteen are -- nineteen days of the party -- action is saying that they would continue to have dialogue they they have their contract talks just. But that being said Joseph I mean their Brit pretty much all sides are saying the same thing that yes we've spoken we just haven't actually talked about. A contract would you classify it that way. Yep -- I mean buddy nix said that they had dialogue in -- he didn't specify which dialogue and that kind of got misconstrued that that people. Work thinking that oh well they're talking contracts -- you know it. The case. It's -- -- -- epic so. It and see so the deal or confirmed that much in the and I'm sure the two sides apple kicked out and start talking and sometimes. Sometime in the next month or so because I mean both sides expressed at that. -- -- -- That he did Stevie jobs what state he -- Johnson said he wants to stay in built the so they want Stevie jobs to states so sure there will be some contract talks that are coming out soon. An Ngo let's also make sure we understand here that he would settle -- -- that is that. They are willing to sign before he hits the open market if it's not a it's not I know we're in a way to -- -- market in everything he's very willing. To sit down and negotiate an even signed with the bills before that date comes correct. You want to know where they stand currently but but that's what that's what he says. That when you and I file that report in December but. But. I did I don't know whether or not. It's if if he's going to which it's just so Stevie -- say they were so called free agency. But -- it's still there I mean I happen that. Yeah and meet -- it's it's far too early to at the same whether or not that's the case so. I would assume that the Bill Belichick to do for portability. Before free -- -- but you know common sense would just indicate that. If you have a guy and and the -- Kevin and antibodies currently let them to show that they're willing to. Meet you where where your work. Your numbers are. Then you would have noble saint that confidence that would indicate that that he would hit the open market to see you there. Or maybe be go to Indianapolis -- people justice to have dealer or so I don't know that it's necessarily this. This the -- shall be wrapped up by. And by the time it recount by -- though were put out of -- -- much more clarity by that time. Okay Joseph let's move on to possible replacements -- he walks or possible compliments of these days and that is this year's wide receiver class. Great job again on the NFL draft report update your blog at WGR -- PP dot com. Tell us a little bit about your wide receiver rankings and the guys at the top of the list. Yeah out wide receiver this year I mean it's it's kind of interesting because the top guys are those. Big time over the top receiver -- You know that that the real speed guys I mean there somewhere but I mean. And a hole I mean coach or my top five or guys that are. You know either six Korean above or or one guy who plays like he's six foot or six -- five. The one guy who plays like he's that all even know yet but it's just black smoke all the state. -- -- the -- six foot 12 -- to needed Hewitt in the Buick. Think that it just by watching him. It in his game that. He's the six courier six -- -- deeply about it like -- Burkle a president -- Africa to impressive. He just two guys -- It has everything you would walk out and opera lover receiver Kareem he. He will have collapsed on top -- never looked again and we'll drop a -- or -- from time -- time but at all just black but it's just a game breaking type receiver. And and Adobe. They'll be in the extra. Be the first receiver off the court will likely will be virtually brought or passed that Michael Floyd for Notre Dame -- -- Jaffray from South Carolina can elect propeller Reuben Randle propel you to grow up like. Our top five. Is there a big drop after that GL I -- is it three guys. And then Kendall Wright is it Kendall Wright is and who's really where does the drop take place in your mind. Well I think you know I think -- receive a class -- pretty strong this year sell it. -- -- -- -- -- -- You can't say they're they're legit drop off after Michael Floyd in terms of the number one receivers. But it and that they can be found out there like there are so there's some other guys out there that I absolutely love but they're not be taken. Early on. I mean -- quietly for Fresno state is a guy who's a 59185. Receiver but. It should be. He is he could be one of the biggest impact players adhere to the right system. Either that these your slot guy slot receiver extraordinaire. And -- he could be that guy that. Conviction you know lead to skewed perception to make multiple parole -- that he's put that court system. It to -- his route running is just absolutely exquisite. -- -- he's he's the real effect directly I think he. What broadcasts that he ran four to five at one point but a -- wanting to see what he does is at. At Indianapolis to really gauge exactly what dispute isn't. And it and well just. Is run after the catch as impressive too so there there are guys out there that mean happy first routers that could develop into that. -- number one receiver. I mean -- -- if you look at I mean in what receivers. The number one wide receivers don't always come from the first round of the draft so there -- some depth of the draft are a lot of guys that I like him I've got about. Fourteen guys that could go also support the first reroute so I think pretty strong draft. Well let's talk about the bills for a second you know if Roscoe parish -- obviously they may be in the market for another punt return you might wanna see we saw Leodis McKelvin at the end of the year Lester we don't know what. This situation is gonna be I know Joseph Adams is a guy that he is like a human highlight -- for Arkansas what what guys also bring that to the table. Well I just brought out quietly returned books to. And event from there you know if you -- go TJ Graham at least a little speedster you brought strapped. Are you race track for the wolf pack there. -- that from their. People speedster that. Projects in it do exactly that or you like. Like -- from Ford international could've went to a big school -- he -- Florida international because his. That little son according to Florida international -- whistle -- the -- consecutive times from from what was reported so. It'd be enters a bunch of little returner out there that. Are able to -- to bring that next step and like you brought a Gillette to media or. -- returns -- of this year. And there are guys out there that -- that that mentioned that would be perfect in in the slot hold up that's surely a top tool but. But you know in the slot is is an area that the bills. We'll probably have to address too because you know they they orbit opera dot that's -- route to Paris was in. Was it without him. As the -- here I'm I'm talking about. And if they. Prevent that X dimensions that other dimension that I don't drop you have more -- so I think they could be in the market for electric car to. And -- question on this who is the most NFL ready right now who comes in at. Right now he can be a player in this league it really doesn't have to take much time to develop. I think Michael Floyd does that. Just -- to me is the most explode the but at both the -- that -- the the number one of our sport the Michael -- -- -- -- You know -- just absolutely -- -- it and good route runner good size six with -- 220 part problems. I think Michael -- most have already put the guy with the most sensual. And the guy who couldn't look at parts possibly take over -- just -- and so I would probably say it already Michael -- Our Jill what's next what's actually now. I am delving into the world of offensive tackle -- and because you know it's been a rumor areas need for the bill they said they want at a tackle and if they don't -- -- Demetrius Bell. That it's an obvious seriously so will be yet. Albeit it LB surely talking about -- he planned and all that cliche stuff. I Jolie look forward to a great job as always. Get back in your dark film -- Malia. Have that I think -- Serbia. Right up until this guy watches more film. Then anybody else in Western New York is bars football's concerned that guy is in their 24/7 he is our Ron Jaworski he's got all broken down for you -- GR. 550 dot com check out his NFL draft report -- blog. He's got wide receivers up -- now he's done pass rushers and you just heard saying he's going to have offensive tackles coming your way next week on our website also be sure to follow him at -- be underscore. WGR speaking of wide receivers. We had won here in buffalo. It was great. And he is up for hall of fame. He's hoping finalist again next weekend Andre -- will he get it I'm holding in my hand at the fifteen finalists in seventeen actually be count the. The only guys in the committee. They include. And -- talk about who deserves negated. I got five guys that I would vote for on this list next week. Well Steve you agree we'll talk about -- reed's candidacy. After the break it was in sports stocks -- in the Biggio. Now that was mark Kelso. Former Buffalo Bills safety he was on which -- the Bulldog this week and talking about the -- -- now or in the twentieth the anniversary years. Time period of the force of rebels but the Buffalo Bills went to. And. Yeah they -- to four straight obviously 19901990. Seasons on -- 91 January maybe to Jean -- and three at forging. Lot of those guys. Already we've seen Jim Kelly -- -- payment Thurman Thomas and Bruce Smith and Marv Levy. Andre Reid is up for -- induction again. This year he's being finalists for what five years generally believed. And there's a lot to be argued that -- Kelsey been touched on this during that interview. If just one of those kicks at the -- one of those symbols when it goes in 25. Or they hold up. In 28. When they're up against -- and have to biggest win what -- maybe a couple more guys already are and in more of them. Will get -- later now hopefully they'll be more of those guys from those teams get in the whole thing. But the one actually been sitting on the fence who deserves to get in who hasn't been in yet and hopefully we'll get this call next week is -- rate. February 4. The hall fame committee will meet they will dwindle the fifteen finalists. Actually seventeen. Because yet to count the fifteen modern -- -- senior member nominees. Failed to Whittle them down. -- -- And then from there or see who gets it. I have five guys here on this list. That I would vote or from this list hopefully there'll be the -- personal these are the finalists for next week. Okay these are -- hoping to these seventeen finalists fifteen monitor into senior nominees. The two senior nominee spyware Jack Butler he was a corner with Pittsburgh in the fifties. And also. -- the handful who was a -- -- with the lions in the Redskins in the fifties as well when you're the modern era finalist Martina. Jerome -- Tim Brown. Chris Carter. -- -- -- Eddie DeBartolo the owner of the -- Chris dormant. Kevin Green. Charles -- Cortez Kennedy. Curtis Martin. Bill Parcells. Andre Reid. Willie -- Will shields. In in -- Williams. The last two years Andre Reid made it. From that list the fifteen to ten on the day of the induction ceremony when they do all of that. Not included on that final list. We're Cris Carter Andre rate I'm sorry Tim Brown Chris Carter timber now general consensus that obviously one of those guys get a gain. Any other two while I think that to possibly could get out of Reid Carter brown three receivers the big guys have been waiting for so long. But the simple fact you know the way this works. The fact that Andre reed has advanced. Further in the process. In -- harder over the last two years. Means he has more support in that room and more moment on every year than those guys which to me means he's going to get him before then. Or the very least to get him with another one of them. Because the whole thing voters don't change so they've been voting him ahead of the other two. So far throughout this time it stands to reason they're just not going to go back and flip flopped and start voting for one of the others over Roger rate. I believe Andre has a very good shot to get infected he does get in next week. In part of the reason also is this is not. This is not an elite class compared other classes that we've seen. And I can say two -- class it's a really horrible choice of words to use when you're talking hall of famers it's not a weak class at all. There -- only 21 year nominees on this list Bill Parcells and will shields. The other finalists you've been eligible previous years the other guys. They -- their they'd been on this process but generally there's other guys who are bigger names who getting quicker first ballot guys. That's not the case this year. On top of act on top of that. Next year's class next year the 2013. Whole think last what do the best ever. Its first first your eligibility goes. And throw -- the names of next year. And I think it relates to this year's voting process by the way. Next -- newly eligible. Larry Allen. Remember him great offensive line. Morten -- the kicker Priest Holmes a running back Steve McNair. Jonathan -- Warren Sapp Michael Strahan. In bright young those are the big names they're eligible first yelled ability when you looked like Larry Allen. Warren Sapp and Jonathan Ogden Michael Strahan. -- -- There is a lot of you could make a case that every one of them could be first ballot again so it's going to be. This year or bust for some of these guys and this list for this year. And I think that plays into. The thinking in the room these -- human being to think about this -- a human being to vote. And I think they know that next year there's this big class coming -- they might want to get water to these guys have been waiting a little extra long. Sit on offense like Andre -- I think that helps Andres chances but again. His -- his party should be he should be all and personable I think. I think he's going to get in simple fact is he's advanced to the top ten before Carter and before Brad. I'll get the five guys I would take off this list put in a whole theme of this. I was on the committee and these with a fifteen presented to me the five guys I would put him. I Andre -- There's no particular order but artery that party said that I would put him and I would go first ballot guy I think will shields a first ballot hall of Famer. Will shields was a tremendous tremendous football player for a very long time in the -- Fourteen years plagued our parking at the Kansas City Chiefs. Another offensive lineman tremendous ballplayer to Monte Dawson I think -- -- Dawson gets in I would put -- it. I'd put those two offensive lineman. Dried Dawson will shields I put Andre -- it. The other two guys. Charles Haley played like every super all the -- it seem like the guy was on every great team he was such a big part. Of the niners and cowboys Eagles and he's at the niners. The cowboys he -- Super -- goes back to the niners. Does -- terrific player I'd put Charles Haley in there and the last guy I wouldn't. He's been on this list before. -- under rated in the all time greatest running back category Curtis Martin. So my five would be this year. To Monte Dawson. Charles Haley Curtis Martin Andre reed will shields. It doesn't mean that. You'd be thinking driving your car powerless and say what it's got all these people are on the ballot for reason. I have no problem I think Carter brown deserved to go in all of them. So this whole debate between Andre reed vs Chris Carter vs Tim Brown. To me is basically a moot point as -- which -- the whole thing or which ones that I think all three hall of famers Cris Carter. One of the greatest receiver and the best in this league has ever seen. His numbers and they are better in a lot of respects than either the other two. We didn't have -- kind of chip -- career that I Andre -- did getting the force of doubles obviously Tim Brown not only was a great receiver he was a great punt returner. Not give a lot of credit that he -- -- long time he was good for a long time very consistent I think all three of them are hall of famers at some point. But I give -- and yet and -- -- absolutely I grew up watching Andre Reid run through this no catching touchdown pass against the Miami Dolphins one of the greatest. Run after catch guys ever. I -- have to reason. Part of the reason the stat right after catch the people start paying attention to was how -- Andre -- was at that go to YouTube some of those highlights. But -- need to get in. I still think that there's. A spot for Steve tasker in the hall of fame. Down the road. I don't know if we'll ever get it I don't know if there's enough momentum in people who really believe. That what he contributed on special teams is good enough to put it all fame. But I'm not a voter I would but again yes I said here. I watch that team I grew up -- passionate about buffalo sports -- a little bias I get that. But I'm very deserves -- Darryl Talley hopefully this time will come at some point. A lot of guys but if what if that kick goes in a 25 if they hold on 28 if they win 26 or 27. And you're talking in. Can't hole Darryl Talley and Cornelius Bennett -- -- RD and you're talking a lot of different guys. Let's hope this is the year for Andre and more about this this week I'm sure we'll talk more about this. Throughout the week under the GR -- -- read his candidacy coming up but I do believe that this is a great year. For him to get in this -- for these guys of this list. It's this year -- for some of them Russert at the wait a long time because the 2013. Eligibility class is loaded with great football players. In those guys getting whether it's first ballot or later they're getting it most of them. We're gonna shift gears. Will talk college hoops. The Syracuse Orange going through a little melodrama if you well fab -- what's going on with them. Alex Dunbar CY central dot com he'll be on the top -- he's reporter in Syracuse area you'll tell us. Give us the latest update on the fab -- situation if there is one at Syracuse plays at 1 o'clock today -- West Virginia they are still. In the top five in the country they did lose last week two games without -- They lost at Notre Dame and one on the road and beat Cincinnati Monday night the coming up against West Virginia at 1 o'clock this afternoon. Again mellow out of the lineup will he even return. Does this team have a chance to even make a run to the national title. Without that -- We'll talk without Dunbar about that will get more of your phone calls it the next are gonna trying to double Paul -- did get his thoughts on the all star break. But -- moving forward once they are out of the break. Take your calls also last hour at 803055888550. To 550 you wanna chime in on my hall of fame. Take -- I just gave yet you got your five maybe disagree or agree to some of the guys I gave you wanna talk bills. Peyton Manning would you make a run -- once it becomes a free agent which is probably going to. After everything is going on any one talks sabres everything's on the table out there for you -- a call 803055888552. -- you don't forget and to hit us up on Twitter. Acts Al sports in on the text line by 35 that the -- Dunbar after the break neck -- exports. The morning then just picked Cornell would not open the game -- -- you. I think that would be a pretty I had to take a look here Jackson good stuff such over the top. The melodrama continuing in Syracuse -- -- on the site a Syracuse taking out West Virginia today in -- they will be without fab Melo once again a lot of rumors swirling about what is going on with him what is not going on with him. We will get you updated as quickly as possible here we talk with Alex done -- just a moment I am watching a little bit top 25 college hoops as I speak with you. Do you lay in it to -- Johns. 4320. -- -- I love coach K and I ever had a son that actually was little taller than me can play some -- like I'd love it if he can play for for coach K. Not Blue Devils family you know he's one of the all time greatest. Coach -- but does he ever stop yelling at referees. In -- I think -- I've read and heard about it he's popping off to the F bombs all over the place when he -- you know that it was the -- really reserved guy would have no he's always yell -- -- he's always. Dropping of bombs everywhere from her but he says so but barely in it too. Duke is -- to saint John's right now they're up by almost one. Marquette number seventy in the country at Villanova -- now the -- Were down big early on but they're climbing back in the game but an -- now. At the pavilion. 39 to 28 over Marquette of course Syracuse. Tip now scheduled for 110 against West Virginia in the Carrier Dome will be without fab Melo again and we bring in. -- program always Alex done by -- from CNY central dot com who's covering the team. Outtakes for joining us as usual item on the -- Love to be here yeah yeah -- will be here. Hey look what's what's up I know that -- getting information from the school about this situation. Due to privacy issues and things like batter in -- way you know usually people are leaking information but it's like Fort Knox over -- out what's going on with that. It really hit it figured very serious because there's a lot of it is laws because the student athletes there's a lot of marketplace at work at -- kinda trying to connect some dots. That hasn't played in game what was -- been out what this is coincided where it's been the start -- -- spring semester. -- not played in the game and what will be the second semester academic year. And that goes along with what we're hearing that this is any. First semester academic issue -- I'm not. You know Arctic connect the dots it would make sense if you hadn't completed and credit by the end of his third semester. And that's few and it may need to get it's credit total up I'm not sure that's what it is. But it would make sense of why this coinciding with -- -- you are not allowing him to play in a second semester. -- if anybody out there want to try and follow what's going on you'll go crazy folks if you read all the Twitter things in -- this -- are rumor after rumor so so don't. One thing the things we do know though let's separate fact from fiction what we do now he is at the game today. He's not playing but he's there it is in street clothes and he has been practicing he's not some junior college somewhere and he's not a Brazil right Alex. It is not in Brasilia you're practicing -- -- on Friday Mikey sitting at the game to date and -- watching the game. On we are hearing and end in in them what we're hearing it's that they on the use this can be. Taking care of at some point in the near future or they've also acknowledged during a male I'm as acknowledged it's taken longer than they thought -- Autumn so. Well we're just just running or from the SU sports network this is just a little while ago on Twitter but as you sports network something I'll tell you can be very trustworthy. A quote from -- behind if that gets his stuff done -- he could be back with us he's just got to do what he's got to do. Yeah yeah. Right then that would the F that would definitely makes sense and I I. I have to I'm again I'm speculating here but I'm speculating that it it's a matter completing a work or -- -- Upon by certain point in -- college career to be able to maintain eligibility. Here's an interesting angle that I wanna ask you about Alex do you think at all that there's a possibility that. Maybe in certain situations like this that the university would have been a little bit more you know working with the student athlete but since. The Bernie fine issue came up and they wanna show that it's not all about sports it's not all about basketball that they're drawing a little bit of a harder line as possible. I think it's possible in the Anhui -- a program he's usually very much on top of their students athletics you know it. The challengers you're you're on their mean the big job a lot of managers and team to make sure that the players are attending class everyday just about every basketball. Player. As a manager checked in to make sure there at every one of their clusters. They get really very regular academic updates. On what I was hearing what the answer you thought this was going to be taking care of in time for the spring semester. And -- it in quite naked on and that this is sort of you know that they I think they I think they actually thought they were on top of this. On and they just realize -- maybe a little or too -- and it's sought for that. -- let's let's move on and let's talk about this team with or without that mellow let's just say he does come back since signed a point to the fact that it is possible. This team is built for the national title and to make a run -- and I was watching the game a Monday night in a couple things that really struck me Alex Alex you comment on this. Things I never thought I'd say in the same sentence and they are scoop Jardine patience calming in the decisions. You that I mean for a lot of people remember -- as a freshman in an attempt earlier on -- got control it's really having fantastic season. I can't remember the toppling that I don't have as -- -- the turnover ratio and firmly but it's very. I think -- it six to one at one point -- most of the 71. EU -- disputed that likes 621 and and he has really been steady hand on his team. On -- and it gets split it tactically you -- kind of all argument that was made for awhile but that's you can never go to guy. I mean I think you could argue it Kris Joseph and Dion Waiters to appoint their coach you guys. And I don't even take into this and scoop Jardine has then it's something of a go to player he has really. They were a bit the progression has an amazing. Scene. What about the other guys Dion Waiters obviously had terrific season. But the last couple games seem a little bit off lot of talk about him maybe being as last year at Syracuse he could go to the MBA what you thought about him sticking or going. You know I think he's gonna have to see where they end up right now NBA draft dot net. Which in my opinion it's usually the best guy like you know where guys are actually standing terms that India made it work with a lot of scouts. They have the -- sort of around in nineteen late teens. For the draft I have to think that the on with app. With book very seriously. Our first round guarantee itself -- pass up if that's guaranteed money. On and -- and hurt themselves actually by staying in school too long. Chris your stock can actually drop -- he stayed in school. So I I have to thank you on can maintain that level you know for the whole season and they're telling at the end of the year the late first Arctic. You would really have to consider that also worked out and -- is considered a vote late first round pick at this point and GA -- dot net. On. That could be I mean you also could -- I'm that would that would really -- -- -- valuable players that's -- -- losing -- will be boosting Chris -- assistance to security graduation. That's basically for their top five players. Well they do have they they do have a quite a good recruiting class coming in next -- well it looks like get. The time where there recently and -- just restock for the next several years it looks like don't know don't have that kind of guard experienced like you're saying right now with scoop. In -- obviously back there but let's talk about if that doesn't come back in the two headed monster of -- Christmas and by -- key to convey. Get the job done to give them a nice tourney run. That is going to be the big question I think in Monday night's game working Christmas at its best game of the year by -- ten rebounds in that game on our team has looked. Really. You know it's been a little or heck if you're going to see I think he stepped up to a point. By 88 I think -- just gonna roll last year Hewitt really high energy guy the year all the bringing in short spurts YouTube on the block a lot of shots. You pick up a lot of fouls they only needed him pretend twelfth in the game they're cute they're asking him for twenty plus Matic game. And I I think he's still kind of adjusting to being able to do that demonstrate clearly to other teams have been taking the ball right at him trying to get in foul trouble. And it's they've been able to do that both of those guys -- really. If they have to go stand in the sport and people after recount better -- you what is not an effort good rebounding team this year. Even when it's -- now they agree on issues there was I spoke to handle the -- a lot better rescued advance. Talk without them -- CY central dot com before election go out got to ask you about. The -- -- situation appears now with. All of the that -- by the third in the fourth accusers in the fourth when saying you lie the third one saying there's he knows there's inconsistencies there there's a lawsuit against Jim behind. Where does all that stand is is there anything to go forward on this day is there any more updates that we can get as far as the situation itself is there more to play out here. I mean I think it's so important may hear from the US attorney's office -- -- prepare the lead agency on this right now. -- we're not hearing a lot from them it's I mean that's certainly the exact some -- there accuser that that case seems to be completely falling apart the sports accuser has basically. Reach into the portion of this story that would involve child abuse. On. I I think you'll have to Q what happened but they're they're really hasn't been much talk on it I think. Jason whitlock wrote very interest in column for fox sports kind of saying. You know at what point. You know what we don't know and navy navy bases alt -- -- a little too far maybe they were you know a couple people try to jump on the coattails of this. On but yet it conduct its earnings saying -- there's really get no charges you know you gonna follow through on. -- That that it is sort is what it is it's and that you know if these allegations of out there then and true or false or or not we may never really know. I exactly what the status of. At lined up films on Twitter Alex them RC in my central back on as always buddy thanks a lot -- don't cover the game. To all that 110 Syracuse in the Carrier -- against West Virginia big crowd probably the largest on campus cropper college basketball game this year they'll enjoy it. I will thank you are great to be here.
