C's Get Coaching Trees

With Eagles training camp quickly approaching, Set Hike! has reached the dangerous part of summer where Ancient Greek literature, Eagles roster projections, and fantasy football delusions all intersect. Naturally, the crew sends LeBron on an MJ-esque, spite-fueled Last Dance, plagiarizes The Odyssey into the inevitable Set Hike! Productions masterpiece The Pizza Odyssey, and deconstructs Shanahan's (Mike's) NFL coaching tree that somehow contains flowers, bramble bushes, weeds, and Nick Sirianni scampering around like a squirrel. Meanwhile, the Eagles offensive line becomes an anatomy joke, Zulu Nation begins accepting laminated résumés for a fantasy football league vacancy, and Turtle proposes a third-place NFL game so offensive that FIFA itself is nearly banned from the podcast for eternity (and may God have mercy on your soul, Turtle). The mailbag wraps up with an epic blind coaching résumé showdown that pits some serious football royalty head-to-head-to-head. By the end, championships are counted, suspicions are raised, and Set Hike! once again proves that no résumé is safe once Stat Boy fires up the spreadsheets...Key Topics Discussed00:21 — Jermaine Mayberry Correction & the Dog Days of Summer02:51 — LeBron Rumors, Retirement Cities, & his Last Dance11:47 — The Odyssey, Blomo & 3,000-Year-Old Spoilers17:35 — The Pizza Odyssey & Matt Damon vs. Brad Pitt22:24 — Scylla, Charybdis & the Trolley Problem24:40 — Eagles Training Camp: QB Battles & Roster Questions31:37 — Eagles Defense & the Great Coaching Tree Debate39:10 — NFL Copycats and 20th Season of Zulu Nation Fantasy Football57:33 — Turtle’s NFL Third-Place Game Proposal01:04:12 — The Blind Coaching Résumé Showdown01:12:12 — Corrections, Low-IQ NFL History & the Football Water SlideStatistics & FactsMichael Jordan previously owned part of the Charlotte Hornets; sold his stake in 2023, having owned it from 2010–2023LeBron's business/ownership history: acquired a 2% stake in Liverpool FC in 2011 for roughly $50 million; in 2021 he converted that into equity in Fenway Sports Group (Liverpool's parent company, which also owns the Boston Red Sox)Homer (not Simpson) is traditionally credited as the author of The Odyssey, though it originated as oral traditionTank Bigsby — incorrectly listed by NFL.com as 23 years old; Stat Boys solves World hunger by noting he's actually currently 24, turning 25 at the end of August 2026Sydney Brown (nicknamed "the cruise missile" / "human battering ram") is no longer on the Eagles — now with the Atlanta FalconsMike Shanahan (father) coached the Washington Redskins from 2010–2013Assistant coaches under him at the time included: son Kyle Shanahan, Matt LaFleur (now Packers HC), Mike McDaniel (Dolphins HC), Sean McVay (Rams HC), and Raheem Morris (fired as Falcons HC last year)Memorable Quotes"Like likable or a fight?" - Panda Dan seeking clarity on the Matt Damon v. Brad Pitt debate"Likeable, Brad Pitt, fight, probably Matt Damon." - Panda Dan's official stance 1-second later on the Matt Damon v. Brad Pitt debate"I'm going to the Washington Wizards. I'm pulling a Jordan. I'm going to the Washington Wizards as LeBron, but I'm going to win it. I'm going to prove something that Jordan could not do. " - Stat Boy"I think about Scylla and Charybdis, I often think about Eagles football. I think of Scylla as the passing game and Charybdis as the running game... you can't have too much of either and you have to navigate both.
