Oh yeah, I was not a discus guy. I was 78 00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:01.160 a shot putter and I ran the hundred and two hundred and a four ball 79 00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:08.720 free boat. I was that guy though like I didn't. I didn't. 80 00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:12.160 I'll be one hundred percent on a straight was like a true thrower. I 81 00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.680 just did it because I could. I didn't have formed technique. I just 82 00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:18.000 had strength. I used to go down there eating the hot dog and you 83 00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:21.279 know it was my turn wipe my white, my hands on my bersey go 84 00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:27.279 throw. Because I didn't have competition back then. So we went to like 85 00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:30.079 states and everything like that. That's when people started to you know, really 86 00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:35.279 throw it, you know far, but like in my area there, no, 87 00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:45.360 no, not so much was all state right yeah, yeah and straight 88 00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:53.720 one st straight could throw another time I said that he made with my old 89 00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:58.879 fifty something. Well, look, nobody could talk too much, too tough 90 00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:01.480 about like the shot put, because the world record went down this past weekend. 91 00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:05.639 Two in the shot put, it just a little little litt'll throw a 92 00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:11.160 seventy seven seventy seven almost four inches, which is with a sixteen pounds, 93 00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:16.639 right, you understand that. You understand how ridiculous that is? Crazy? 94 00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:22.920 Oheah, yeah, that that was. That was there's another long horn. 95 00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:26.879 By the way, you're talking about Ryan Krowsier sets that record twenty three point 96 00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:31.199 fifty six meters. Just happened this weekend, So good luck they show did 97 00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:33.840 they show without a misery in the Olympics, Did they showed the number like 98 00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:37.840 what that ranked in Olympics? Like what was that gold? Who the world 99 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:43.759 record? The world record saying like that that that number in the Olympics, 100 00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:48.440 like with that had placed right or it broke the world record, like everything, 101 00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:52.879 it's the world record. It's not your okay, I'm sure so yeah, 102 00:08:52.480 --> 00:09:03.519 yeah, the world record, world the ever so his own world record. 103 00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.399 So there's that. You know, Crowser, he's just a little guy, 104 00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:13.320 six seven three and thirty pounds athletic. Looks like a nice tackle. 105 00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:18.039 He looked like a tackle. But you know he'd rather throw that iron out 106 00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:24.120 there, man, baseball guys talk about baseball. The season concluded after a 107 00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:28.200 quarterfinal Big Ten Tournament loss to Nebraska, losing four to nothing out there in 108 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:33.759 Omaha. Yeah, first of all, congratulations to the baseball team. I 109 00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:39.559 think they you know, they succeed. You know, everyone's expectation of them 110 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:43.120 going into this year and the coaches, the coaching staff, the players. 111 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.600 I think this is on the right trajectory. They're gonna now, you know, 112 00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:48.840 making it this far in the tournament and now you know, going to 113 00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:54.080 have the opportunity to recruit better people, better athletes to come because this baseball 114 00:09:54.080 --> 00:10:00.600 program now it's getting serious about the sport of baseball here in Michigan at Michigan 115 00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:05.120 State. So it's it's really it's really cool. So congratulations big time, 116 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:11.360 big time thirty three and twenty two, twenty two record for the bigseball team. 117 00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:15.840 Jake Boston that head coach, first time Big Ten tournament appearance since twenty 118 00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:22.720 and eighteen. Rock Vandenberg named to the All Tournament team for the Big Ten. 119 00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:28.519 Lots of upside for Michigan State baseball, and you know, best of 120 00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:31.279 luck to them. And then this is this is something I think they're turning 121 00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:33.679 things around over there and shock the world a little bit this year. And 122 00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:39.240 speaking of Nebraska, that's where they were. They lost to Nebraska in Omaha, 123 00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:41.440 Nebraska. But you know, Michigan State football got a little get back, 124 00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:48.360 got Nebraska transfer in a Lante Brown, the receiver is now a Michigan 125 00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:54.399 State Spartan Fellas welcome, Welcome is he? Here was he in working out 126 00:10:54.480 --> 00:11:05.080 today? We lost our guests. We had a special guest as those are 127 00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:13.480 facts, right, Billy and Kean and just like pump fake this, yeah, 128 00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:16.440 so no, but you know, welcome, Welcome to Michigan State. 129 00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:18.879 Welcome to east Lands, and uh, that's a great you know, that's 130 00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:20.960 a great ad for us. It's going to add depth to that, uh 131 00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:24.440 wide receiver position, which we need. You know, we we have some 132 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:28.679 talented guys there. I think this season that wide receiver position is going to 133 00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:31.639 be by committee. I think, you know, there's gonna be a lot 134 00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:35.519 of guys who's gonna I think one one time. You know, it will 135 00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.080 be Tray Mosley's day. It's gonna be Foster's day. It's gonna be fits 136 00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:41.600 his day, you know. So I think it's gonna be a really interesting 137 00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:45.519 and really fun to see. And I think, you know, coach Hockin, 138 00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:48.440 you know, he's excited about this group anyways. Uh, you know, 139 00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:50.519 because they're they're a great group of guys, great great young men, 140 00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:56.320 and uh they know the rules. If you don't block in that offense, 141 00:11:56.360 --> 00:12:00.159 you're not gonna get the ball. So no blocking, no Rocky. Uh 142 00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:05.120 So, but I think he's going to be a great addition to the team. 143 00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:09.960 Absolutely, no blocking. Do what I'm playing. And that was after 144 00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:13.399 year, all right. So when you when you look at stats, you 145 00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:20.639 look at okay, you started every game. When you look at sixteen passes 146 00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:22.440 for one hundred and ninety one yards. Well, you know you look at 147 00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:26.399 no touchdowns, no tuddies, right, so you almost feel like what's what 148 00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:31.799 was missing? Was it the quarterback play? Was he not able to get 149 00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:35.200 there? And also he's a special teams guy, So it's similar to like 150 00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:39.240 I saw the comparison trying to get that Jade Reid asque body right because he's 151 00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:43.840 fast. He comes out of you know, prep school. He was the 152 00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:48.000 number one prep guy in twenty twenty, originally signed with Texas Tech, then 153 00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:50.519 actually goes to Nebraska and then he had this you know, he had the 154 00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:54.840 COVID year too, so you know, fresh new chapter with a different wide 155 00:12:54.840 --> 00:13:00.639 receiver coaching coach Hawk, We're hoping that we put something together. It's in 156 00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:05.200 and really it's all about culture fit or culture fit, and then we know 157 00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:07.600 what he could do on the field, and it's really can he being that 158 00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:13.679 speed to get a little compliment to the other three because we want to make 159 00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:16.639 sure those three do get them shine because they've been grinding. But you know, 160 00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:18.120 I look at the stat wise and you know, as a sophomore, 161 00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:22.039 you know, maybe he was you know in the slot and was getting double 162 00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:24.600 team you don't know, but if you look at stat wise in the Big 163 00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:26.559 Ten, you know he has some big catches, but you don't see the 164 00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:31.840 conversions over to touchdowns. So I'm just playing devil's after for That's that simple 165 00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:33.639 thing. To that point, Yeah, the guy was He was an actual 166 00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:41.360 high school quarterback actually through for forty one touchdowns in high school and ran for 167 00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:43.840 another twelve. So I think this is a situation where a guy is a 168 00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:48.720 great athlete and he's trying to learn the position of receiver and learn the nuances 169 00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:52.159 of it. Playing quarterback obviously is a lot different than playing receiver. But 170 00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:54.559 he was originally committed to Michigan State, and if you can remember before, 171 00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:58.200 he signed with Texas Tech then goes to Nebraska, so it's kind of a 172 00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:01.679 full circle deal for Alante. Uh. Did you have something to add to 173 00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:05.600 that? Yeah, I think you know, to Oti's point there being the 174 00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:07.440 Devil's have it and you you said it too, Uh, straight, I 175 00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:11.480 think he's learning the position, But I think you have to be in the 176 00:14:11.559 --> 00:14:15.000 right situation. I think that's that's the biggest thing. If you if you 177 00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:18.120 put it in the right situation, you can find success. You can be 178 00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:22.320 successful. I don't think Nebraska was the right situation. Nebraska was a dumpster 179 00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:26.080 fire. We all know that Scott Frost went there swindled all those people out 180 00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:28.360 of all that money. They said, the chosen kid was coming back home 181 00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:33.559 and take us back to victory. And what do you do? He slummed, 182 00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:35.519 He took, He took all those people money. He's he's like Brett 183 00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:46.679 Faire taking all those people money. Fired. Man, he's in a teammate, 184 00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:50.919 but he's gonna be in a new system now. I think it's where 185 00:14:50.960 --> 00:15:00.200 you're in. Oh man, what a breath to deserve that one man, 186 00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:05.200 that's what he did, allegedly him at TED TV. I'll see, yes, 187 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:18.440 allegedly. Don't don't sue me like he said. Unclesh, you ain't 188 00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:31.679 know. Work was caught in the podcast world allegedly to Michigan State Football to 189 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:39.080 me saying and Brandon Jordans had shared some tweets about Andrew depat and by job. 190 00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:43.360 Here is to me, she's talking about Andrew the paper by Joe young 191 00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:48.519 stars and making giving them their flowers. Now fellas talk about it. And 192 00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:54.080 then here's coach Jordan's BT up in Seattle saying facts about to take over college 193 00:15:54.120 --> 00:16:00.200 football. Mhmm. Oh, listen, that's a solid that's a solid, 194 00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:12.080 solid reference from coach bt Man. But Devil's advocate a kid, Oh boy, 195 00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:18.559 we need we need to see that in some real pad and hitting like 196 00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:22.759 fully like go go because like you know spring like yeah, they inside if 197 00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:27.279 you're not internally like you get to go to practice and watch, you know, 198 00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:32.200 really when the lights come on as far as stadium, will that convert 199 00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:36.679 and transition. I know they're young, but I can't give flowers and somebody 200 00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:40.840 just yet now, I say, from the trajectory of the projections, absolutely 201 00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:45.360 right, but just let's let's chill for a minute. Let's chill because like 202 00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:49.000 we can't be having these busts be given them flowers now and then just bus 203 00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:52.759 because everybody putting pressure on it. You know, this is a day and 204 00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:56.120 age man. You quickly want to do comparisons of goats and who they look 205 00:16:56.279 --> 00:17:00.559 like, and then they try to live up to that and they don't up 206 00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:03.399 and then they get lost in the sand and lost in the sauce. So 207 00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:07.000 I'm just saying this, chill. There's still some young spartan dollars and puffs, 208 00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:12.519 but we need we need some physicality from helmet to helmet contact to see 209 00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:17.599 how it converts. That's just me being a defensive guy. That's it. 210 00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:19.759 Hey, I'm with you. Oh, I you know, I love it. 211 00:17:19.839 --> 00:17:23.200 I love all the accolades and all the flowers that they're getting right now. 212 00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:26.559 Hope they will start smelling, you know, like Jimmy Ray said on 213 00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:29.559 that when they went to that rose Bolt, they were, you know, 214 00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:33.319 smelling the perfume that was thrown on them. But you know, but for 215 00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:37.200 me personally, I'm like, I'm the state model of Missouri. You know 216 00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:40.880 what that is? Right to show me state show me, show me, 217 00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:44.599 don't tell me, show me. Go out there and show me how you 218 00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:48.200 can do it when the lights are bright in Spartan state. I I have 219 00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:51.359 faith in I have faith in the system that that they're going to be placed 220 00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:55.640 in that the you know, especially with by Joe you know, getting bigger, 221 00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:57.400 stronger, faster in the weight room this offseason. That's going to be 222 00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:03.799 really huge for himself. I'm excited about that and those guys. And all 223 00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:08.839 depends are what flowers too, Like roses. I cast say, roses really 224 00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:18.799 smell like what flowers were given These fellas there like you about to be solid, 225 00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:21.559 oldest. This is what Marlon just told you. It's gonna be solid. 226 00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:27.240 Trevor's telling you exactly, a lot of people have oh games. Why 227 00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:30.799 with all these people? I think the strength of this team this year is 228 00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:33.480 gonna be that defense. That defense is gonna surprise a lot of whoa whoa, 229 00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:40.839 whoa, whoa whoa. I could not switch that silence, what you 230 00:18:40.920 --> 00:18:45.680 mean, silce team? What do you mean? What do you mean? 231 00:18:45.640 --> 00:18:51.680 You you said the strength of the team is him, he asked him. 232 00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:56.359 Now, but I'm gonna say I'm saying that that that that defense is gonna 233 00:18:56.359 --> 00:19:04.000 be. That defense is gonna be Listen, bro, I'm telling you right 234 00:19:04.039 --> 00:19:08.359 now, we got we still got summertime, and we still got fall camp. 235 00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:14.000 If we don't give a goose egg when Central Michigan comes to town and 236 00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:19.079 we dominate pure dominance, where we don't leave no doubt unturned, then I'll 237 00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:23.400 be like, I know we got some dogs now, but too don't put 238 00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:27.440 I'm telling you putting pressure on it. Like we don't put pressure on it, 239 00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:30.599 Let's make it what happens with pressure. People are saying the front seven 240 00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:36.640 is looking good. That's what Psy said. And then somebody it's gonna stands 241 00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:38.359 just talking about the O and D Lions are both gonna be so much better 242 00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:41.119 this year. I mean, maybe maybe choose on to something I don't know. 243 00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:47.119 Yeah, that that defense wasn't given the it wasn't given a fair shake 244 00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:48.799 last year. I know, we had our woes and everything like that, 245 00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:52.920 the injuries, the suspensions. We couldn't really run what we wanted to run 246 00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:57.200 defensively. Now the scheme's gonna be there. That defense is gonna be full 247 00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:02.000 of confidence, is gonna be flying off on all cylinders, and they're gonna 248 00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:06.160 be aided by that offense. You know, they're gonna be aided by that 249 00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:14.519 guy number fourteen leaving out Trevor. Trevor just called you out. You Oh, 250 00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:17.640 he said, I thought the strength of the team was your son. 251 00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:26.680 Oh is cad up?

I remember 283 00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:30.559 they was in fall camp and coach had at left tackle and he was cool 284 00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:33.000 and I went to go put a due in the like behind whatever. My 285 00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:36.599 man was like, man, you hord buddy, for real. He was 286 00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:38.240 like, man, your name K five and that's you just stud with it 287 00:23:38.319 --> 00:23:48.839 like that knockout pancakes all day. Hunh You'm serving them. Let's go. 288 00:23:51.440 --> 00:23:53.039 I got a question before you jump in there straight, you can answer, 289 00:23:53.079 --> 00:23:57.480 like the only lineman we've had on all the line of these days. Now, 290 00:23:57.599 --> 00:24:03.319 Like it's so what even get that swag about them? And like when 291 00:24:03.400 --> 00:24:07.559 did that happen? Like when was that era with that sweat? Man? 292 00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:11.039 Listen, it was always there, y'all? Just noticing now, that's all. 293 00:24:11.559 --> 00:24:14.640 Yeah, I'm just now noticing, you know, thank god. You 294 00:24:14.680 --> 00:24:17.440 know, look, going back, we talked about it last. We're talking 295 00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:19.839 about Tony Manders, right. It was the first guy, first offensive lineman, 296 00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:23.160 to get a million dollars coming out of the draft. And since then 297 00:24:25.079 --> 00:24:29.279 the importance of the offensive line has been more and more prevalent for everyone. 298 00:24:29.319 --> 00:24:32.480 And now today you're starting to see the fruits of that labor, especially with 299 00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:36.400 you know, college football and the pro football. You see the salaries rising 300 00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:40.079 because without them, without good offensive lineman, you can't you don't. You 301 00:24:40.079 --> 00:24:44.480 don't have a Tom Brady, you don't have those guys like Patrick Mahomes that 302 00:24:44.519 --> 00:24:48.119 they could be the stars that they are. So I think that's just what 303 00:24:48.279 --> 00:24:49.720 it is. Man. You know, you see guys like Trent Williams. 304 00:24:49.720 --> 00:24:52.079 I mean, hey, I don't know, K five, what you think 305 00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:56.200 about Trent is that a guy you follow. Yeah, I love Trent. 306 00:24:56.240 --> 00:25:00.400 The way you play the game, dominating, physical, like people you play 307 00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:03.720 the game, That's what I'm saying. And he's got a little swag to 308 00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:10.480 him too. Definitely old man. So look, we talked about office alignment. 309 00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:14.279 They don't they don't always get to shine, but they grind and and 310 00:25:14.279 --> 00:25:17.559 and and let allow the people around him to get the glory. Man. 311 00:25:17.599 --> 00:25:22.000 But like what what drives you to be? You know, a complete offensive 312 00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:26.039 lineman? Uh? And kind of keeps you hungry that to to you know, 313 00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:30.680 to improve yourselves a year over yere. Honestly, just when I was 314 00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:34.160 a kid, my mom used to work two jobs and just seeing her just 315 00:25:34.200 --> 00:25:37.960 pacifically go and not complain about nothing to make it happen. So when I'm 316 00:25:37.960 --> 00:25:41.759 in the church, they don't think about number feed my family and taking care 317 00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:48.680 of my gods beside me. Mm hmmmm. I like that. Yeah, 318 00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:53.559 right, you stuck you with that answer, K five man, that's what's 319 00:25:53.599 --> 00:26:00.279 uping man? Mama? What you say to that?

It opens a lot of doors, which 324 00:26:17.119 --> 00:26:19.039 it has done for you, you know when you look at it. Kishan 325 00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:26.440 K five, Where did you When did you start playing the game? I 326 00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:30.359 want to say seventh grade? Seventh grade, so in middle school you start 327 00:26:30.400 --> 00:26:33.960 playing. So that's that's a normal time, I would say for a lot 328 00:26:33.960 --> 00:26:37.079 of guys. Some guys played really really early. And what did you play 329 00:26:37.160 --> 00:26:40.519 right away? Did you play offensive line from the beginning or did you try 330 00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:45.559 other positions? I was a left tack on a end.

You know there's 337 00:27:12.319 --> 00:27:17.880 good football there, and then you went the Juco route and coming out of 338 00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:19.759 that, you had, you know, being the number one player, you 339 00:27:19.799 --> 00:27:23.319 know, coming out you had you know, app State, Arkansas State, 340 00:27:23.359 --> 00:27:27.799 Auburn and my hometown university at Buffalo. You know, looking at you in 341 00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:33.400 Michigan State, what what drew you? And this question is for both of 342 00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:36.640 you guys, both you mom and K five. You know what drew you 343 00:27:36.720 --> 00:27:41.160 to Michigan State and why did you choose to come to Michigan State? For 344 00:27:41.240 --> 00:27:45.480 me, honestly was like coach Cap the relationship I have my coaches and really 345 00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:48.519 Genie Way and he reminded me of my juco offensive line coach, So that 346 00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:52.359 really stood out to be the most. He just really just thinking like, 347 00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:55.559 man, where I'm gonna go where I got the best relationship with and I 348 00:27:55.599 --> 00:27:56.759 just want to see the field and blatant and what I'm gonna do, like 349 00:27:56.880 --> 00:28:00.680 I'm gonna do anything possible to touch this s fields. Like yeah, I'm 350 00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:03.400 so. I was talking to my junior college coach and he was like, 351 00:28:03.480 --> 00:28:06.680 man, you remind me of older version of me. And when he sat 352 00:28:06.720 --> 00:28:11.839 down with a no brainer. Man, look we saw that picture in the 353 00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:15.920 snow. Man. Typically our boy is coming from the south, they touched 354 00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:18.400 that snow. But I know you was in Juco. You saw some snow 355 00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:22.319 of Kansas, right, So I'm glad you wasn't afraid. I'm glad you 356 00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:26.400 didn't get a lizard Blizzard store and we'd be like, Nah, this ain't 357 00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:30.799 it. Talk, But talk about just when you made that decision. I 358 00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:34.160 know, we saw some of your video when you saw you were signing, 359 00:28:34.200 --> 00:28:37.519 and you know, Coach Tucker, you know talk. I mean, if 360 00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:42.079 you look at Coach Tucker's press conference when we signed, I mean, he 361 00:28:42.160 --> 00:28:47.359 said some things that kind of get everybody juiced up because we know our office 362 00:28:47.359 --> 00:28:51.319 alignment has some struggles and roes last season, and so you watch her from 363 00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:55.599 afar, you know, what did you envision yourself coming in and helping, 364 00:28:56.039 --> 00:28:59.319 you know, not bridge the gap, but improve our office on line play, 365 00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:03.680 just bringing that swerger and that that hustle of mindset. But we're gonna 366 00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:06.319 get it by any means necessary. We ain't gonna lay out for nobody. 367 00:29:06.880 --> 00:29:12.680 M hm. So with that process, mom, what did you you know, 368 00:29:12.759 --> 00:29:17.359 what were your you know opinion on you know, the visits and what 369 00:29:17.359 --> 00:29:21.319 what did you just leave it to K five to make that decision? Did 370 00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:23.519 you have any say in it? And what was it that drew you and 371 00:29:23.599 --> 00:29:26.720 attracted you to you know, letting your son, you know, and trusting 372 00:29:26.799 --> 00:29:32.240 your son with the coaches in Michigan State University. Well, I don't have 373 00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:36.200 to be there, So whatever he wanted to do, he felt like it 374 00:29:36.240 --> 00:29:38.920 was a big situation for the family. So I just stood behind him and 375 00:29:38.960 --> 00:29:42.440 what he wanted to do, because you know, this is his journey and 376 00:29:42.480 --> 00:29:48.440 not mine. See there it is again, guys. You know that that's 377 00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:52.359 the parents. Gotta let the players do what the players want to do because 378 00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:56.440 you don't want to decide for them, and then they're gonna have to you 379 00:29:56.480 --> 00:29:59.480 know, then they're gonna be upset. Right, That's that's, you know, 380 00:29:59.480 --> 00:30:02.480 because it's not easy to play this game. And you know what did 381 00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:06.079 you brought up the Mel Tucker press conference. I think we have that video 382 00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:15.200 for everyone, right going with the O line.

He's a mad or roll league. 388 00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:52.839 I see it and feel it all. What he said has came to fruish 389 00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:56.680 him in this interview because I see you locked and loaded. Man, It's 390 00:30:56.680 --> 00:31:00.200 only one one goal in mind is to to win a championship.

Man, what's the best part about 395 00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:21.279 you know, summer workout starting back up today. I know it's been a 396 00:31:22.039 --> 00:31:25.440 month kind of hiatus after spring ball. You have to go get a chance 397 00:31:25.480 --> 00:31:27.640 to go home kicking with the family.

So when it's fourth down 401 00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:40.880 and two on the gold line, the game on line, I trust my 402 00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:44.240 God beside me get the job. Man. So just bonding with my teammates 403 00:31:44.240 --> 00:31:48.920 and just making sure they're comfortable with me and I'm comfortable with them. We 404 00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:51.839 needed you on that fourth and one against that team down the road, like 405 00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:56.000 the boy you feel me, I'm hoping you watch a film last season, 406 00:31:56.359 --> 00:32:00.759 right, definitely, we definitely need that for sure, right speaking speaking of 407 00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:04.279 that, like we just talked a little bit about what's going on with the 408 00:32:04.319 --> 00:32:07.559 defensive line and to to me say, and it was talking to BT coach 409 00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:14.440 BT about the Pape and by Joe, those three defensive line, and you 410 00:32:14.480 --> 00:32:17.079 get a chance to see them up close.

I feel like we're 413 00:32:25.079 --> 00:32:29.200 healthy right now. From got great guys in that room, great leaders, 414 00:32:29.240 --> 00:32:30.960 great older guys to to lead the young guys. So I feel like that's 415 00:32:30.960 --> 00:32:35.519 always good. But I mean, like I say, everybody homeger, everybody 416 00:32:35.519 --> 00:32:37.279 trying to prove a point, and we just say we're not an average team. 417 00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:39.799 We're the top dogs and we're coming for it all. So that's what 418 00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:47.240 we're trying to prove and show everybody. So it's been a journey. You 419 00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:52.039 know, you came out of high school, you hit that uh that the 420 00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:59.279 community college junior college route there obviously you know every high schooler's dream and everything. 421 00:32:59.279 --> 00:33:01.640 It's like they want play in a power five school. You know that's 422 00:33:01.640 --> 00:33:06.359 what it is. But you you took the harder path, you know, 423 00:33:06.519 --> 00:33:09.680 going through that. So what does that mean emotionally? You know, like 424 00:33:10.400 --> 00:33:14.920 finally you know, you knew you believed in yourself, your mother believed in 425 00:33:14.920 --> 00:33:16.599 you coming out of high school that you could play at a power five level. 426 00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:20.920 But you know some people didn't, you know, and you had to 427 00:33:20.920 --> 00:33:23.839 go and prove it for you. I'll ask you this well, because you're 428 00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:28.079 shaking your head, you know, like what emotions when you know that, 429 00:33:28.279 --> 00:33:31.279 you know, those power five conferences, the Auburns, the Michigan State, 430 00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:35.920 you know, started you know reaching out now, started making offers, you 431 00:33:35.960 --> 00:33:38.519 started going on those visits. All that hard work is coming to fluition. 432 00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:44.400 Now you know, what's what's the emotion? Like? Well, I was, 433 00:33:45.319 --> 00:33:46.640 like you said, my emotion was all over the place. But I 434 00:33:46.759 --> 00:33:52.240 was so glad and my son he trusted the process. He didn't give up. 435 00:33:52.640 --> 00:33:57.400 So many people that started with him at junior college just went home and 436 00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:00.519 said, you know, I just rather give a job. I just I 437 00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:04.680 feel like he beat the odds, Like you know it was too easy for 438 00:34:04.720 --> 00:34:07.239 him to give up, you know, and it was time. He called 439 00:34:07.280 --> 00:34:09.480 and said, Simel flight, I'm coming home. And I was like, 440 00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:13.760 no, I'm not got anything in life. You want, got to work, 441 00:34:13.840 --> 00:34:15.760 you got through yourself, and they're just all a part of being, 442 00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:21.280 you know, part of life, no question about it. We talked about 443 00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:23.880 this often on the show, that there's not one football player in America that's 444 00:34:23.920 --> 00:34:29.880 telling the truth that will say that they've never thought about quitting. You know, 445 00:34:29.559 --> 00:34:32.400 when you get past high school all the fun and games and to go 446 00:34:32.440 --> 00:34:37.079 to the sunshine the rainbow. So he he ha, You it's harder, 447 00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:42.719 right, I mean, it's just part of the mature maturation process. You 448 00:34:42.719 --> 00:34:45.480 know.

I like to play basketball. 503 00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:28.719 I love to hoop. Talking the game to my homeboy, I'm me talking 504 00:39:28.719 --> 00:39:32.719 with us on the game. Look, just don't be like, don't hoop 505 00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:37.559 when you don't break your hand when you're hooping and steering like off seasons. 506 00:39:37.679 --> 00:39:43.239 Just just stay chilled, you know, hey, just playing horse man, 507 00:39:43.400 --> 00:39:45.960 just the game of horse Man.

I played varsity basketball from my 510 00:39:54.679 --> 00:40:02.800 house, started marsity seven eight. Yeah, okay, all right, damn, 511 00:40:05.559 --> 00:40:08.440 I know we got some questions, but I mean we want to talk 512 00:40:08.440 --> 00:40:12.320 about just let's talk about Spartan offense. You know, you only have the 513 00:40:12.320 --> 00:40:17.440 playbook from springtime, right, coming from Jaco the playbook and then coming to 514 00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:22.320 Michigan State, what's the difference and then what are we going to be able 515 00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:23.840 to see, you know, lead into summer as you're in the in the 516 00:40:23.880 --> 00:40:29.199 playbook and watching film. I mean, it really wasn't like different. It's 517 00:40:29.239 --> 00:40:32.079 just like learning the new terminology and the scheme and stuff like like that, 518 00:40:32.159 --> 00:40:37.000 and like knowing what the play trying to do, like where's the ball going 519 00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:39.480 within the play and stuff like that. So just knowing your assignment, knowing 520 00:40:39.519 --> 00:40:44.719 what can happen if this guy do coming up just like little like little details 521 00:40:44.760 --> 00:40:46.440 that you got to know at the level. So it's it was good though, 522 00:40:46.480 --> 00:40:50.639 like coach cab coach well my coaches and stuff like that helped me get 523 00:40:50.639 --> 00:40:54.960 into the playbook involved my game. I feel like we ain't got a chance 524 00:40:55.000 --> 00:41:00.559 to really get to know like the of coach Cat, Like what is his 525 00:41:00.840 --> 00:41:04.760 what is his sayings that you've already picked up on the spring as he's coaching. 526 00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:14.519 What are some sayings he coach cat uh Man coach on the air. 527 00:41:14.599 --> 00:41:16.920 I don't know. Yeah, you just gotta love him for who he is. 528 00:41:17.000 --> 00:41:21.199 You don't coach you are. I love Coach Cathaway coaching me and just 529 00:41:21.480 --> 00:41:22.719 the energy he brand every day. He loved what he doing. Not a 530 00:41:22.760 --> 00:41:25.280 lot of coaches love what they do on and off the field. He just 531 00:41:25.639 --> 00:41:28.760 like off the field, he of loving coach like he a man at the 532 00:41:28.840 --> 00:41:30.199 end of the day, he gonna take care of you like your father and 533 00:41:30.320 --> 00:41:34.360 do stuff to replace that like you're away from home rights you go over to 534 00:41:34.440 --> 00:41:36.840 their career with his wife, just you know, like a coach that's gonna 535 00:41:36.880 --> 00:41:39.000 love you like that. Too many coaches like that. It's the difference between 536 00:41:39.000 --> 00:41:43.400 a man outside of football and just a coach. You just look at you 537 00:41:43.440 --> 00:41:45.000 as a business. He don't look at you like that. He look he 538 00:41:45.079 --> 00:41:47.320 looked at you like family. So that was big to me too. So 539 00:41:50.079 --> 00:41:53.559 that's what's up. Yeah. Yeah, So you know, obviously with the 540 00:41:53.599 --> 00:41:58.440 Spartans last year was not the season that we wanted. I'm sure you were 541 00:41:58.480 --> 00:42:00.760 getting recruited, you know, throughout the year and you saw, you know, 542 00:42:00.840 --> 00:42:05.599 kept an eye on the season and it wasn't up and down and a 543 00:42:05.599 --> 00:42:07.639 lot of downs last year. And then you come in, you know, 544 00:42:07.679 --> 00:42:14.119 you have the opportunity to come in and be part of that change of not 545 00:42:14.280 --> 00:42:17.760 just the tradition but the culture. You know, so coming in like what 546 00:42:17.920 --> 00:42:21.280 were you know? I know you said you're coming in with a chip on 547 00:42:21.320 --> 00:42:24.119 your shoulder and Coach Tucker said that in the in the press conference talking about 548 00:42:24.159 --> 00:42:28.320 you. But you know, when you stepped on campus, you walked in 549 00:42:28.360 --> 00:42:31.239 locker room, what has it been like, you know, bonding with the 550 00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:36.000 team and what is that culture like in the locker room? Right now? 551 00:42:36.679 --> 00:42:38.880 Everybody love everybody, I mean like everybody gonna see each other, They're gonna 552 00:42:38.880 --> 00:42:42.480 see what's up are you doing? Everything like that? They gonna acknowledge you 553 00:42:42.519 --> 00:42:45.079 as a player and who you are, just like your team, and da 554 00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:47.440 ain't just gonna walk past you and just like who you do it. Everybody's 555 00:42:47.440 --> 00:42:50.840 gonna try to talk and you know what I'm saying, at least be cool 556 00:42:50.960 --> 00:42:52.079 with you. I mean, we got a family right now. We bonding 557 00:42:52.159 --> 00:42:54.920 right now. And I feel like right now, offense and line really did 558 00:42:55.039 --> 00:42:59.159 jeling like just get to know each other. We really stuck together right now. 559 00:42:59.280 --> 00:43:02.639 We got guys older god like Nick Saint mag Jd who playing like older 560 00:43:02.679 --> 00:43:07.440 guys in that room to to like set the standard for everybody and know what 561 00:43:07.519 --> 00:43:12.320 it is. You know, there's been a lot of talk from other players 562 00:43:12.360 --> 00:43:15.679 about the construction that's going on. You know that that's happening obviously right inside 563 00:43:15.719 --> 00:43:20.599 the football building, which has forced the team to kind of break up the 564 00:43:20.719 --> 00:43:24.880 conditioning strength the conditioning session, so you're not meeting as a full team all 565 00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:29.639 the time in the locker room. Are you seeing any issues with that? 566 00:43:29.920 --> 00:43:32.039 Are are they now, you know, at this stage in the construction process 567 00:43:32.119 --> 00:43:36.360 working to try to improve that. Yeah, I mean they're working to improve 568 00:43:36.400 --> 00:43:37.960 it, but we do the best we can to still bond with each other. 569 00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:45.119 They ain't no shoes. What's what's I mean? What's are you happy 570 00:43:45.119 --> 00:43:50.480 that you're going to get a brand new facility because it's crazy. It's crazy 571 00:43:50.480 --> 00:43:53.400 to me and too well too was gone. But my my senior year, 572 00:43:53.719 --> 00:43:58.239 you know, we cut open like or cut the ribbon for that facility. 573 00:43:58.280 --> 00:44:00.960 You are in right now and I was in two thousand and eight, and 574 00:44:00.039 --> 00:44:05.679 so you fast forward, you know, having a new facility and you're seeing 575 00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:08.800 the dream come to fruition. How does that make you feel to help you 576 00:44:08.840 --> 00:44:14.320 know, change your improve your game with the new facility. I'm grateful. 577 00:44:14.400 --> 00:44:15.559 I mean, like I said, I came from nothing to dream college. 578 00:44:15.599 --> 00:44:21.639 So I'm grateful for everything. I don't take nothing for granted. What do 579 00:44:21.639 --> 00:44:25.360 you think the biggest difference is in your I'm finish in the spring right now 580 00:44:25.679 --> 00:44:30.280 versus what it was like in junior college? What I like? The facilities 581 00:44:30.280 --> 00:44:32.920 are different, like the play on the field. What do you notice right 582 00:44:32.960 --> 00:44:37.639 now as far as what the difference is if you see it? The biggest 583 00:44:37.679 --> 00:44:42.159 like chair for me was for coming from junior college, like the defensive shift, 584 00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:44.840 like how the linebacker move in and out the box and they could be 585 00:44:44.920 --> 00:44:46.719 last second, but you still got to make your call or if you don't 586 00:44:46.760 --> 00:44:50.119 make your call, you just got to live with what you made. So 587 00:44:50.199 --> 00:44:52.360 that was the biggest thing I had to learn, honestly, that was really 588 00:44:52.400 --> 00:44:55.000 it. I mean, Dan, I'm gonna play physical. They don't come 589 00:44:55.039 --> 00:44:58.679 up the ball wherever you go, so that's gonna happen. But just like 590 00:44:58.679 --> 00:45:01.000 the linebacker, how they move in out the box and safety might rotate down 591 00:45:01.400 --> 00:45:05.119 or whatever. You might have a hangover. So just knowing your correct calls 592 00:45:05.119 --> 00:45:10.440 and your assignment that was the biggest thing. That's that's big. Now, 593 00:45:10.639 --> 00:45:14.000 Yeah, I watch some film with you too. Man. I'm like, 594 00:45:14.679 --> 00:45:16.639 hey, man, you fired up that ball with a vengeance. Man. 595 00:45:16.760 --> 00:45:20.920 So I said, every every highlight now, I know they highlights, but 596 00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:23.000 they don't really show you your down places. It look like you ain't had 597 00:45:23.000 --> 00:45:28.039 no down place. And it was like that was in shells and probably just 598 00:45:28.239 --> 00:45:30.480 helmets and you pancake somebody in the highlights. So I was like, oh, 599 00:45:30.480 --> 00:45:34.880 this dude's for real. Keep that going, man, because we don't 600 00:45:34.920 --> 00:45:38.519 need it for sure. Mom. So you know, we see K five 601 00:45:38.599 --> 00:45:42.880 like he is now, he's a man about business, you know, like 602 00:45:43.119 --> 00:45:45.880 ready to go and straightforward and stuff. How was he at home? And 603 00:45:45.880 --> 00:45:54.199 how was he as a kid? Pretty much? I mean over he was 604 00:45:54.480 --> 00:45:58.519 you know, he was a good child. But he also let me know, 605 00:45:58.840 --> 00:46:04.320 you know how he felt too. He's very opinionated and he don't like 606 00:46:04.400 --> 00:46:07.159 things. Sometimes he don't say it right then, but he'll let me know, 607 00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:08.320 like Mama, I didn't like this, and I didn't like that. 608 00:46:09.159 --> 00:46:13.199 But that's how I raised him and his sister, Like it's okay to tell 609 00:46:13.280 --> 00:46:15.880 me, Mama, I felt like you did me wrong or I felt like, 610 00:46:15.400 --> 00:46:20.800 you know, you embarrassed me. Because I think about being a mother 611 00:46:20.920 --> 00:46:24.920 or a parent, it don't come with a direction like how to be a 612 00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:29.599 mother. So I with my kids, I try to bun and I try 613 00:46:29.599 --> 00:46:32.320 to let them know when they're wrong, and when they're right, I'll try 614 00:46:32.360 --> 00:46:39.199 to award them facts. What about We had a good question in a chat 615 00:46:39.400 --> 00:46:46.199 was what's your favorite sports memory? Okfive, your son growing up? Well, 616 00:46:46.280 --> 00:46:52.679 my favorite memory on sports memory he used to play softball, I mean 617 00:46:52.719 --> 00:46:54.800 baseball, and I really liked him to He played every since he was t 618 00:46:54.960 --> 00:46:58.960 lea and this is what I wanted him to do, but he just said 619 00:46:59.000 --> 00:47:01.079 he outgrowed it. But that's the memory that I like him, you know, 620 00:47:01.159 --> 00:47:05.639 this is what I wanted, but football is what he wanted to do. 621 00:47:05.880 --> 00:47:08.760 So but I got some great memories. You know. I just feel 622 00:47:08.800 --> 00:47:14.199 like, you know, as a parent, it was a requirement from my 623 00:47:14.280 --> 00:47:16.880 household for him to play sports. I don't care what sport was that, 624 00:47:17.000 --> 00:47:22.199 you know, AAU basketball, basketball for the school football. But I just 625 00:47:22.239 --> 00:47:27.519 feel like sports teach us, you know, like teach them display so much 626 00:47:27.559 --> 00:47:31.079 more leadership and it ain't all about them. So it's just a requirement in 627 00:47:31.119 --> 00:47:37.719 my household. Did they have to play sports? Very good? What position? 628 00:47:37.800 --> 00:47:39.760 What position were you in baseball? I ought to know this. I 629 00:47:39.800 --> 00:47:46.079 played first base. Look at you and then you pee and you the high 630 00:47:46.199 --> 00:47:55.440 catcher? Yeah yeah, oh man, first base pitch. So if your 631 00:47:55.440 --> 00:48:01.159 first basement usually got a good back too. Can you hit yeah? Oh 632 00:48:01.239 --> 00:48:17.760 yeah yeah memory the little park and the cars come and hit the car window 633 00:48:17.840 --> 00:48:30.679 out? So uh before games especially now, do you have any pregame rituals 634 00:48:30.679 --> 00:48:35.440 that you do or do you is there any nerves with you, you know, 635 00:48:35.519 --> 00:48:37.400 to go watch your son, but like what pregame things do you do? 636 00:48:38.800 --> 00:48:42.320 I don't have none. I just try to support him, you know, 637 00:48:42.599 --> 00:48:46.840 as much as I can and Juco. I used to try to make 638 00:48:46.880 --> 00:48:50.360 it so, you know, twice a month because you don't have to pay 639 00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:54.360 for flights and hotels. But I used to try to make it like twice 640 00:48:54.360 --> 00:48:57.679 a month, show up and let him know, you know, support him 641 00:48:57.719 --> 00:49:01.239 and everything he do.
