- Dave "Softy" Mahler, KJR Radio, Seattle joins 365 Sports to discuss his thoughts on the chaos in the Pac-12, Oregon and Washington joining the Big Ten, his thoughts on what went wrong with the Pac-12 Media Deal, and more.
With David Smoak & Paul Catalina
I don't want to read too much into things, but I think this guy might approve of the change.
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Lol Softy is passionate
What gave it away..😂😂
@@theyhateme2601 Sometimes I just trust my instincts!
Lol I love Softy. Grew up listening to his voice on the way to school recapping Seahawks, Huskies, and Mariners games.
Welcome to the B1G we are glad to have you !
Speak for yourself, most fans don't want this trash in the conference. These two teams can barely recruit in their own states.
Utah is going to the BIG-12!
Yeah, that sucks. Offering Utah a lifeline, while maybe the best move for the conference, is not something Utah deserved.
Yes, that's where they belong. The goofy 12.
@@YeahCalifornia_ Better than the Potty 12
@@staleydu1 Believe me, Big12 fans aren't overly excited either.
Dave is clearly on the fence about this.
So wishy-washy...😄
Sounds like Dave is very happy with this move! lol
Dude sounds like he’s cutting a WWE promo 😂
Can you tell Softy to not hold back next time. It wasnt clear at all how he felt about this move.
Softy went Hard on the PAC 12 lmao 😂 let's go
Gator fan here, the B1G is my 2nd favorite conference, very tough league. Those schedules going to be insane 🔥🔥🔥
No kidding, you know with schedules like the SEC & BIG10 whoever goes to the playoffs from those two conferences will be battle-tested and tough outs!!
@@ChrisTesch87 facts
Noles Fan here and is my first time ever agree to a Gator Fan
@@Themadpig lol
I feel his disappointment .... RIP PAC12
Well… say how you really feel 😅
It's the radio in him😂
Love it spot on welcome to big boy football
Lol I know you aren’t talking about Rutgers, Nebraska, northwestern, Maryland, Purdue, Indiana… 😂😂 big boy football right there
@@gagebyers1057 Ohio state Michigan Penn state Wisconsin Michigan state lowa Illinois added with usc Washington orgeon usc ucla that’s big boy football
@@gagebyers1057 sorry big 12 only get left overs will be the same with acc big 12 will get maybe Pitt Louisville wake forest Boston college
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂 This guy was hilarious!!! Love him!!!
Wow! That was fire! Love it!
Christ bro, take a Xanax
I’m betting Oregon feels the same way. Whooosshh!
Garbage team.
What a tame, objective response!
That guy is fired up!
Not a very passionate guy, was he?
I am sad, I will be this way for a week or two then i will come around I am sure. I am glad to see a lot of B10 fans are very welcoming.
Michigan fan. Take all the time you need. But I want you to know, that when you're ready, we'll be here waiting for you TO GET THIS PARTY STARTED!!!! It's going to be fun times together!
Not me, send all these trash teams back.
I like this guy. He needs a TH-cam channel and Pat Mcafee should bring him on for his college segments.
He is totally right to be excited, they are in the mix. He wont be covering MWC games. He will be covering big time college football games....
As an Oregon fan, I can't stand this guy.
So I guess he is excited...😂😂😂
Softy seems, uh, excited.
I like this guy. Interview him more
This is plain wierd. Washington has never been good at Football. The conference wouldn't matter. Boise State is much better in a smaller conference. No high school football recruit is going to want to travel from Washington State to Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Illinois to play sports while pursuing a college education(in the winter?). This is like the 40 year old women on ESPN interviewing the college football players after a game. Its like Extra reporters at movie awards. Its sad and awkward in college sports. Adults acting aquard elephants in the room.
I've been a Husky fan since I was 15 - I'm now 52 going on 53 in Dec. For the Huskies not being a Pac-12 team is something , I never thought would happen but change is a part of everything so I will wait to make any judgment until after this first yeer as a B1G member. Go DAWGS. As for the Apple Cup ; it being a Non Conference game , if that will make the meaning of it Less then before?
This is going to be one Heck of a conference. Come on in....the water's fine!
Don't, leave and take with you Oregon, USC, UCLA, Rutgers and Maryland.
Enjoy flying to State College and NJ.
I don't think that will be to often. I think the BIG will use a format like the SEC was going to go to if they go to 9 league games. 3 Permanent teams and you rotate the other games. UW's 3 permanents will likely be UCLA, OR and USC + 6 from the other group, then rotate 6 from the other group of non-permanent teams, etc.
This is what it's all about.
Wa state fired its head coach for not taking an experimental injection and now they don’t have a conference and the old coach is healthy and happy. Rip Wa st. Go Ducks! Congrats Huskies.
Can you elaborate on the correlation between the firing and now not having a conference? I doubt Rolovich is happy about any of this. Idk, maybe he is.🤷♂️
Not sure anyone will miss the apple cup either. Never competitive and few people around the country even know about it.
So guess the PAC 4 will be absorbed by the mountain west now.
PAC 4 & ACC = A&P
😂😂😂 Get'm Dave
It means more losses for UW.
I don't know this Creator is the first time I've seen their video those who are saying they didn't know where he wanted to be or what he felt lot of fans wanted to be careful with what they said so they didn't jeopardize what was best for their teams
Hmm sounds an awful lot like OUT feelings towards B12....
Yes, this guy gets it. A bunch of people boo hoo hooing over this. Things change and I’m all for it.
When was the last time UW made conference champ? They belong at the kids' table. They are Mickey Mouse.
While it was mostly luck based Washington was the last Pac 12 school to reach the CFP(assuming a team doesn't make it this year).
people out there acting like its wash uo usc etc fault is a joke....LARRY SCOT did this
UW fans. Have fun fighting Wisconsin for who the real UW is and playing Maryland, Rutgers, Indiana, Illinois and Nebraska. I’m sure they didn’t enter your mind when you signed your life away so that OSU and Michigan can get stronger. Don’t believe? Ask PSU and Nebraska how they’ve enjoyed their slow declines from the heights of college football. Money is nice but wins are sweeter.
Beyond an underrated comment. More money is nice and they’re laughing now but won’t laugh at mediocrity being in a conference dominated by OSU & Michigan, and then Penn state in a solid third place
Penn St is actually a really strong program. Pac 12 had weak teams to in Cal and Colorado and most years Oregon st so yeah Washington will still play Oregon, Usc, and Ucla and now will get to play Ohio st , Iowa, Mich st, and Michigan. Yeah life is good
PSU is 11-2 and won the Rose Bowl beating the PAC-12 champ last year. The only 2 losses came to 2 out of the 4 playoff teams. PSU would've qualified for the 12-team playoff 5 out of the last 7 years. That's after recovering from massive sanctions that weren't lifted till 2014. PSU is the 9th ranked team in ratings and averages a top 10 recruiting class under Franklin since 2015. PSU has played in 4 NY6 bowls which only 5 other teams have done. PSU is also one of 5 teams to have 6 players drafted to the NFL in 6 consecutive seasons to include Saquon Barkley and Micah Parsons. And it's not our fault we couldn't play Nebraska for the natty in 1994 and OSU was selected for the playoffs over us in 2016 despite us beating OSU and winning the B1G. PSU is 3-3 against Michigan the last 6 years and 6-6 the last 12. To compare PSU to Nebraska shows you're ignorant.
What was UW supposed to do? This is just as much about relevancy as it is money. We are inevitably entering a closed P2/3 system less be relegated to smaller time football.
But the move to the B1G also means more east coast presence, more national alumni outreach for those in NY, Chicago, LA, etc to be able to attend games and follow the team. It allows national recruiting for both athletics and non athletics thanks to that exposure. And it also creates an additional affiliation with the B1G network to extend to other endeavors.
If it's UW's prerogative to remain part of a power football conference than this was their only move.
Defeatist attitude
Steaming from someone’s RV lol😅
The big ten is a snooze fest. Boring football. Money ain’t everything.
You are the minority. Why do you think the bigten makes so much money? It ain't because they win championships. It's because more people watch their programs than the other conferences
@@LEE_65 what championships? The only one in recent memory that has won one was Ohio St. The conference might as well be called Ohio St and the pips.
Well he was 100% correct about the recruiting. All the big recruits in Washington were LEAVING. It is impossible to play big boy football if all of your top recruits are going East becasue the PAC10 commissioners had their heads up their ASSES for 20+ years which destroyed the conference. This conference did not fall apart in the last year. This is a DECADES old problem which has DESTROYED recruiting on the west Coast for the PAC10/12.
So true.@@w8stral
Softy the Duck hater and me the mutt hater finally agree on something...
The Pac has always been perceived as inferior to other conferences and that was never going
to change. Now four of the best Pac teams will be going head to head with the B1G and we shall
see who's inferior. GO DUCKS stomp the puppies (that won't change either)
B1G alumni here: Most teams that have moved to the B1G conference have struggled. I am happy for the future match-ups.
@@summer031977lol grass isn’t always greener when you are only winning 5,6,7 games a year! Look at Nebraska, mizzou, and Texas A&M.
It was not always perceived as inferior. Up until the early 2010s it was a fine confrence. The BIG 10 went through a similar stretch without having a team in the top 4 from 2008 to 2013. My memory is fuzzy but I imagine in those years the Pac 10 was considered the second best confrence.
It's also a very somber moment. It's a pretty mixed development actually. The leadership really messed up the conference for the past decade. If the PAC had had good leadership, they might have have been really competitive with the B1G right now.....and that would probably have been much healthier for college football, long-term.
Under the circumstances however, This was the only real move...a good move. And as daunting as the conference is going to be..... (Teams that traditionally might win 10 games probably only winning eight......) There are going to be some exciting Saturdays. Some really great matchups....
Man's going to be upset when Washington becomes the new Nebraska
Nebraska puts 90,000 in the stands every game. Electric atmosphere..... it could be worse.
B1G conference is smashed mouth football. It took Maryland almost a decade to have a winning season in their football program. Rutgers and Nebraska are still trying. Hehehe
@@summer031977 smash mouth lol okay
@@Toast2222 You didn't add anything to the conversation. Lol okay
No, Washington has more in-state recruits than what Nebraska has, and still has California to recruit from as kids from there see Seattle as a place more in their comfort zone. i.e. kids from LA or Bay Area, both recruiting hotbeds. I say this as a guy from an SEC school (LSU) living in SEC footprint states. I went to the LSU-UW game in Seattle in 2009, they have a really good on campus atmosphere.
The Big Ten doesn't need garbage teams like this in the conference.
A team that won 11 games last year. How many teams in Bug 10 won more?
@@rknvonhoffmann8245how many teams in the B1G got to play a PAC-12 schedule? Half of the conference would have 10+ wins if they got to play a PAC-12 schedule.
Nebraska's football program is not wahat it used to be. Apart from Michigan and Ohio State all the other schools in the existing Big 10 are not that interesting too watch.
Exactly
UW is going to wet the bed 🛏 like they always do at best a middle tier team in the Big 10 😂 Softy is the name nickname for UW football.
Lol
Ohio st and Michigan licking there chops more mediocre teams to beat up. Hopefully Washington and Oregon can get there football programs back up to quality championship football.
Washington beat Michigan state last year, and Oregon just beat Ohio State in the shoe two years ago......
Is Indiana and Purdue licking their chops?
UW. Will be insignificant and the Mickey Mouse of the Big10. A west coast Rutgers/Maryland. If Nebraska has had issue these guys don't stand a chance.
Feeling 🧂🧂 are we? 😭
@@UW_Huskies totally lmfao
Well wisky is decent but umm ducks say hi😂
sure Jan
At least they have a spot at the table, and not left behind. IDK who you are a fan of? But, these guys are here and have every chance you have....
Oregon and Washington are Mickey Mouse football programs though...
ya right
Welcome to big10 life UW. When u visit big10 stadiums over the years ur really going to like it here
Think of all the exciting match-ups with Ohio state, Michigan, Penn state, USC etc
Didn’t even go to school there. Clown take, no wonder the dudes on radio
