00:00If they're looking for reasons to keep Alex Van Pelt, there's one big one, and it's Drake May.
00:04Oh, that would be my point.
00:05And that's more than you have.
00:06That's why I would keep him.
00:07I wouldn't fire him.
00:09If you're making a chart and you're saying, all right, all the reasons to keep Mayo,
00:12all the reasons to keep Van Pelt, you're going to have more reasons to keep Van Pelt.
00:15They're all Drake May related, but they're all going to be on that side of the ledger.
00:19I don't think they're going to move on from either one of them.
00:22I think they're both going to be back next year.
00:24I think there's no chance of that.
00:25You think there's no chance they're both back?
00:27I can't envision that happening at this point.
00:30That would stun me.
00:31Really?
00:31A guy like you that is so reactionary and emotional thinks that they're going to keep the status as
00:37quo?
00:38Yes.
00:38Oh, no.
00:39I don't think it's going to be a popular decision.
00:41It won't.
00:42But I think that they are, number one, not going to fire Mayo.
00:45I still think that even if the last three games go very poorly, that's not going to happen.
00:49And I think that if they don't fire him, they're going to be looking at, all right, well,
00:54we have our quarterback.
00:56What does he think about all this?
00:58And I think that he's going to stick up for Van Pelt.
01:00I think he's going to say, oh, yeah, it's not like Van Pelt's going to go get another
01:03job like McDaniels did.
01:05It's not like he's going to go be a head coach somewhere.
01:07I think they'll go to Drake May and they'll say, hey, what do you think about offensive
01:10coordinator?
01:11And I think Drake May is going to say, I want to keep him around.
01:14And if he says that, that's probably enough of a rubber stamp right there to keep him
01:18around at least one more year.
01:19And that's all I think it really is going to take.
01:22If you believe him, if you believe what Drake May said to us on Monday, then that seems
01:26like the logical progression of all of this.
01:28I don't think the Crafts are going to make a unilateral decision like that without at
01:32least checking with their crown jewel rookie quarterback.
01:35I just think that that's someone who's going to have some input in this decision.
01:38And if he has input in it, then I think Van Pelt's safe.
