TRANSCRIPT:
Zaire Talk
 
Andrew:                 What’s up, Gator Country? Your man, Andrew Spivey, here with Nicholas de la Torre. Nicholas, it’s June. What the hell are we doing with a jam-packed show?
Nick:                         Stickball sport, one of them is still going on, and, as you know, the bags under eyes probably tell it, recruiting never dies, never sleeps. I guess Coach Mac and those guys are trying to fill up that, what is it? Swamp ’18?
Andrew:                 Yeah. Swamp ’18, and then Gator ’19. Yeah. All Bite ’18. Sorry. All Bite ’18.
Nick:                         All Bite. That’s it. There you go. That’s on me.
Andrew:                 Then let’s not forget, the biggest non-secret of Malik Zaire coming to Florida is official.
Nick:                         The worst kept secret, and people are freaking out about it. You just kind of kept telling them. Like, listen, if the kid was going to go somewhere else, he wouldn’t have pushed back his decision three times.
Andrew:                 Yeah. That’s what you get for listening to the Rivals and the 247 guys over at Texas trying to tell you he was going to be a Longhorn.
Nick:                         You remember when that Texas site came out, and was like, he’s thinking about going to Harvard too? I called you. I was like Harvard? Who are these people talking to?
Andrew:                 Yeah. Obviously wasn’t talking to him. I mean, if he was going to Harvard, he might as well stay at Notre Dame.
Nick:                         If you’re going to go to Harvard, you can go to Harvard, but he’s trying to play football at the highest level.
Andrew:                 Yeah. Exactly. Well give a rundown here. We’re going to start with softball and baseball, and then we’re going to finish up with some Zaire talk and some recruiting talk. Jam-packed. We’ll fly through the stickball sports and spend the majority of the time on Zaire and on recruiting. Justin Fields decommitted on Tuesday night, during the softball game. Maybe the worst kept secret.
Nick:                         That is eye emoji all day long.
Andrew:                 Yeah.
Nick:                         Two eye emoji on that Justin Fields decommitment, even though you had been telling people on our site to expect it. Even when it happened, you got to drop that eye emoji.
Andrew:                 That’s one of those bombshells. That’s that. Also, I pissed off Miami fans. What’s new?
Nick:                         You rang that bell yesterday. Ding! Ding! Ding! You had Bruce Buffer on your timeline going, Ladies and gentlemen!
Andrew:                 Yup.
Nick:                         Went toe to toe with the ‘Cane Gang.
Andrew:                 Oh yeah. Let’s start with it. Nick, 17 innings, six-hour softball. Don’t ever tell me softball doesn’t play long, because my eyes were getting crossed.
Nick:                         How dare you? That was one game. We had a five-hour, 400 pitch game, and that was regulation.
Andrew:                 Ugh. I’ll say this
