Yeah, you got you know, from the 67 00:07:34.600 --> 00:07:38.720 standpoint, if you if you see volleyball. We we got a little known 68 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:41.800 fact of the day that you know, year of year, they're growing, 69 00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:46.319 they're they're following, and it's the program is getting that that notoriety back. 70 00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:49.920 That's uh.

But soccer, both men and women's teams are ranked at the top 85 00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.519 twenty five. Only Big ten school to do that. Yeah, both these 86 00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:58.399 teams are really taken off having great seasons so far. You know, it's 87 00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:01.480 really cool to see that the her team is, you know, coming back 88 00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:05.600 and putting on a show every time that this step on to to the to 89 00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:11.240 the pitch. As Brendan would say, uh there but uh, you know, 90 00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:15.240 beating you of them tying. That's really good anytime that you can do 91 00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:18.879 that, you know. So it's gonna be a really fun and interesting season 92 00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:22.720 for these for both the men's and women's soccer team. If the games are 93 00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:24.879 really exciting, you know, and now the students are starting to go there. 94 00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:28.320 It's starting to create a very good atmosphere for the soccer team. And 95 00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:33.399 so something really cool to see. Speaking of soccer, also women's team, 96 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:39.080 Reagan Dalton earned Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week honors. Every week they're 97 00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:43.879 climbing the ranks. Man, and I like it's weird because you know, 98 00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:46.799 you say, you know, they go rising, you know, obviously you're 99 00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:50.000 climbing up the pole, and they're like climbing up the ranking polls. But 100 00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:54.679 when this this class, like this whole team like a bunch of go getters. 101 00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:58.360 Man. Like, if you ever see them off off the street, 102 00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:03.200 they're very business avy, like they are hungry for like the next moves of 103 00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:07.480 getting jobs and getting connected in the community and doing with you know, everything 104 00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:09.759 off the field, and which just kind of transitions to on the field. 105 00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:15.279 Like they are on attack as soon as that that game starts to the end. 106 00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:18.879 So if you ever get a chance to, you have to actually come 107 00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:22.480 out and support both programs. But women soccer is on fire. So I'm 108 00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:26.200 glad we had hospital on too, because I feel like he's you know, 109 00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:28.799 as soon as you've been on, they just still continues to put that fire 110 00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:31.759 out there. And so they're on the road. Uh So cheer them on 111 00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:35.080 and that's uh they're playing Indiana right now.

Man, That's what 168 00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:01.960 it's crazy, because uh, let's let's go back, man, because when 169 00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:05.679 you was in Grand Rapids and working at the local in the local high school 170 00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:09.360 community, a lot of training and I remember being at a side and auction 171 00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:13.000 outing. I know the team was over there, and yeah, I think 172 00:15:13.159 --> 00:15:16.879 after that you kind of fast forward and start getting back into the college coaching. 173 00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.080 But talk talk talk about the journey man, like you know, you 174 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:24.720 played for the great time we call them Father Tom. You know coaches well, 175 00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:30.519 and you know, talk about the journey man, the journey from playing 176 00:15:30.559 --> 00:15:33.120 for coach and then kind of getting back to full circle being back at the 177 00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:39.440 Green and Whiteland coaching staff. Well appreciate that. But that said, showing 178 00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:43.919 up to you guys, because everybody, everybody the wars and tears of being 179 00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:46.519 a spark dog. As we talking about you guys, are we all in 180 00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:50.720 this? We all in the family on that. So I appreciate being here. 181 00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:54.720 But no on the real man started off played, you know like all 182 00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:58.279 of us. I played fifteen years in Europe. I remember coach came at 183 00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:03.759 me like twenty thirteen about I usually he always stopped by a football game before 184 00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:07.840 I go overseas to play, so he kind of jabbed at me about getting 185 00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:11.039 into coaching. But I but going to your point, oldest man, I 186 00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:15.000 always gave free camps and free trainings because I was always okay, you know 187 00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:18.440 basketball and all that. But to get back to the community, I always 188 00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:22.720 gave a free camp or free trainings because you know a lot of people couldn't 189 00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:26.440 afford that. So that was my way to touch the community. So I 190 00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.000 will always do that, and it just start going. And then once you 191 00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.519 know, when coach jabbed at me about it my last year twenty fifteen, 192 00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:37.440 it just kind of lined up. A GA spot opened up, and you 193 00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:41.000 know then you know going to did just for three years, started with Denzel 194 00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:45.039 Valentine. It was my first year as a GA. Then did that four 195 00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.039 years out Western Michigan. Then a long story short, Dwayne Stevens when he 196 00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:51.840 got the job, of course he was keeping me on with him. But 197 00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:53.120 to his credit, he was like, no, I think he should go 198 00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:57.240 back home. And so when he when he said that, much respect to 199 00:16:57.360 --> 00:17:02.720 him for you know, kind of blessing that making that happen. I much 200 00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:06.279 respect to DJ for that because he didn't have to do that. And coach 201 00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:10.640 welcomed me back home open arms, and honestly, man, I'm back at 202 00:17:10.680 --> 00:17:12.319 home. I mean it feels good to be back. To be honest, 203 00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:18.240 it feels good. Yeah. So that's in a nuts share. Look, 204 00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:21.319 we came in together. I remember nineteen ninety four, man, we came 205 00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:26.079 in the same time. You know, it was the last year for Perlis 206 00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:30.079 and then saving comes into ninety five. But then that was yet times I 207 00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:33.599 think second year as the coach. Yeah, so I remember you saw the 208 00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:40.559 evolution of Bastball then like from the Heath coach when Tom took over to where 209 00:17:40.599 --> 00:17:45.279 it is now. Now, talk about your experience as a coach now and 210 00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:48.000 what do you like most about it? You know, because you know, 211 00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:52.519 obviously from players, we missed the camaraderie. But what do you like the 212 00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:53.640 most and what do you like the least? As being a coach now in 213 00:17:55.079 --> 00:18:00.359 back at the alma mater, I mean, it's crazy. I wish I 214 00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:03.000 was. I wish my parents would have had me younger. I wish I 215 00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:07.319 wish I was coming along out with it. Y'all know that with the benefits 216 00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:11.519 they getting down with the all their food and the setup, it's unbelievable. 217 00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:15.480 But no, man, you're right, because it's kind of like guys like 218 00:18:15.559 --> 00:18:19.319 a j and Holgard, Tyson Walker, even j A lot of these guys 219 00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:22.440 they like to talk about the old times. They always ask questions, they 220 00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:26.920 always want they you know, they want to see where it all came from. 221 00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:29.640 But but like you said, Jason, Man, to be real, 222 00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:32.720 I mean, I've seen the n I T in the final four in my 223 00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:36.519 years here as so, I've seen the you know, when we was trying 224 00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:38.519 to get going and to break through my senior year to you know, I'm 225 00:18:38.519 --> 00:18:42.119 missing national championship by a year. But to see that that rise and that 226 00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:47.799 to see the culture to what it is, it's it's kind of impressive. 227 00:18:47.799 --> 00:18:49.839 And I got to give coach a lot of the credit for that because you 228 00:18:49.920 --> 00:18:53.359 know, he was. He was always on it. He was always you 229 00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:59.119 know about the corn, sticking together, holding each other accountable. And at 230 00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:00.960 first the first years, to be honest with you guys, like it was 231 00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:04.480 hard because we was trying to you know, everybody want to show themselves and 232 00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:07.640 do this. But we decided we was tired of losing, and we was 233 00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:10.880 like, man, let's just go and buy into what he's talking about. 234 00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:15.279 In sweet sixteen, Final four, National Championship, Final fourd and and that 235 00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:19.440 that kind of with that culture and what were on when I when I come 236 00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:22.000 in, when I where I come in, when I talk to these guys, 237 00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:26.279 they know I'm from that. You know, I witness that. I 238 00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:29.359 seen that, and I honestly know what I'm talking about. So I know 239 00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:33.240 when a player is cutting a corner, you know, or somebody's trying to 240 00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:36.839 you know, you know, not really given that all because we all know 241 00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:40.640 when we all you guys play sports at a high level, we canme and 242 00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:42.480 reinvent the will. When we were talking about winning, you know what I'm 243 00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:47.119 saying, because that's a you know, that's a whole different type of sacrifice. 244 00:19:47.519 --> 00:19:49.319 And that's why I'm on with our guys because see now I know what 245 00:19:49.839 --> 00:19:52.480 when you when you hunting, you know you're trying to go get something like 246 00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:56.200 this year, we people feeling, you know, we're gonna we got the 247 00:19:56.240 --> 00:19:59.279 bulletsy on our back. So now we got to understand we got to approach 248 00:19:59.319 --> 00:20:00.880 it different. So like I say, I've seen n I t I seen 249 00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:06.680 the Final four, So I know when people come to get us our mindset 250 00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:08.839 and the way these guys competing right now, which I love, I mean 251 00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:11.960 following us. To be honest, our guys are and ain't always pretty, 252 00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:15.640 gets sloppy sometimes the time of year, but honestly fail us. Our guys 253 00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:22.119 are competing every day and that's just and that's the that's the kind of things 254 00:20:22.200 --> 00:20:25.680 we have to have if we're trying to you know, trying to reach the 255 00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:27.519 goals we're trying to reach. So to be honest with you, Jay Man, 256 00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:32.240 no, it's not really a negative thing when you talk about the coaching 257 00:20:32.319 --> 00:20:34.680 side of it, because the kind of guys we got and the kind of 258 00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:38.720 culture we have, you know, our guys are coachable. They won't got 259 00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:42.759 a coach effort. You know, it's really no none of that right now. 260 00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:45.599 You know, if anything, we got to turn it down something because 261 00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:49.839 it gets too competitive. Man, it really does. Wow. Yeah, 262 00:20:51.640 --> 00:20:56.200 So coach, you know, with talking with the way the landscape of college 263 00:20:56.279 --> 00:21:03.119 basketball and college sports overall is changing, and coach is he's been a constant. 264 00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:04.880 He's been the same you know guy that he was part of, like 265 00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:08.480 when you were there too, How is he and you're and you guys as 266 00:21:08.519 --> 00:21:14.400 a staff adjusting with the new landscape of college basketball and still saying, hey, 267 00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:17.400 you know, Michigan State is the place to be, but we're not 268 00:21:17.519 --> 00:21:19.119 going to be you know, hitting the transfer portal, We're not going to 269 00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:22.759 be throwing all this nil and everything like that. How are you guys staying 270 00:21:22.799 --> 00:21:26.920 with the times but yet still getting these big recruits coming in. Well, 271 00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:30.960 to be honest with you, man, we with that. We still stick 272 00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:36.599 to our principles. We have a we have our we have our our staples. 273 00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:38.680 Like you're talking about the culture, the you know, the you know, 274 00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:44.200 accountability, Like we still stick with that, and we still stick with 275 00:21:44.440 --> 00:21:48.440 our thing is we spend time. I spent time with the guards wings, 276 00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:51.720 I spent time with him. That's kind of why I'm glad you guys. 277 00:21:51.839 --> 00:21:55.079 I'm glad y'all, y'all came on at the right time because I was spending 278 00:21:55.119 --> 00:21:56.640 time with the guards man, you know, putting that time in with him, 279 00:21:57.119 --> 00:22:02.200 investing in them, so that that makes it easier to adjust with the 280 00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:04.839 times, if that makes sense, Because like I said, you can't reinvent 281 00:22:04.920 --> 00:22:08.680 the will, reinvent the will with things. But these kids, you know, 282 00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:12.279 let's be honest, kids love attention. These kids love attention, and 283 00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:15.960 but you got to find the balance of that because you don't want to kind 284 00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:18.799 of wear and tear them, you know what I mean, Because you know 285 00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:22.680 at our time, you remember, just straight on me, we're trying to 286 00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:25.880 break through. We're gonna have the three hour meets, the four hour meets, 287 00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:27.440 the you know, we had all of that at our time. No, 288 00:22:27.720 --> 00:22:32.240 you can't do that now with them, with the with the you know, 289 00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:34.480 with the things that you know, these kids, you know, they 290 00:22:34.599 --> 00:22:37.799 need their time. You know, if mental health is an issue of something 291 00:22:37.880 --> 00:22:41.119 going on, you don't want to risk that. But we still spend time, 292 00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:44.880 Jayu Man, we spend a lot of time. And that's how we 293 00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:48.039 were able to maintain and sustained with it, you know what I mean, 294 00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:51.440 because we we give our we give our kids the attention they need. We 295 00:22:51.839 --> 00:22:56.880 have spent sacrifice with them whatever we gotta do, and they and they understand 296 00:22:56.920 --> 00:23:00.519 and they appreciates that because we got those kind of kids like j Nakin's appreciates 297 00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:04.359 that. Tyson Walker appreciates that that you you were able to spend time with 298 00:23:04.480 --> 00:23:07.920 him. So that's the cool thing that we have, you know what I 299 00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:12.559 mean? Yeah, Yo, coach, you talk about like I think everybody 300 00:23:12.640 --> 00:23:17.359 wants to know. I think we all know. But the makeup of a 301 00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:22.839 guard right like Iszzo has his what he wants in the guard and you meet 302 00:23:22.200 --> 00:23:26.640 one of his guys and then being able to kind of coach like the current 303 00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:33.359 guys and recruit like our guard room is stacked like that I've ever even seen, 304 00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:36.920 right, But talk about the makeup of what you're looking at the DNA 305 00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:40.599 of a guard that where's the green and white? Because I think that's an 306 00:23:40.640 --> 00:23:44.599 element in itself of the guard club. Y'all got Hey, Jason, you're 307 00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:48.119 gonna love this. You think is right? You say that oldest. I 308 00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:51.960 go at him every day. I'm like, hey, me, Mattein and 309 00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:56.039 Charlie will lock y'all up. Oh, y'all talk that to U to Tyson 310 00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:00.799 to a j and jaydon you know, because I'm like, all three against 311 00:24:00.839 --> 00:24:03.400 y'all through we'll lock y'all up. But I'm saying that to say, like 312 00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:07.960 I have to say to your point, when you talk about the guard players, 313 00:24:08.160 --> 00:24:11.640 say, you've gotta have some mental toughness. You're gonna get challenged, 314 00:24:12.160 --> 00:24:15.079 you're gonna get you're gonna get pushed, You're gonna get you know what I 315 00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:19.440 mean. So the thing is like Jeremy Fears, young kid man, he 316 00:24:19.519 --> 00:24:23.839 don't lay it down, man, Oh my gosh. So you right right, 317 00:24:25.039 --> 00:24:26.799 So you got you got, you got, you got Jay nakeds like 318 00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:30.480 that, you got Tyson like your a j you know. And then Trey 319 00:24:30.599 --> 00:24:33.799 Holloman because Trey Holloman got some football in him, right, you got some 320 00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:37.440 of that football. And so y'all y'all know what that I'm gonna take you. 321 00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:41.240 I don't like playing full basketball, none of y'all. Man. I 322 00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:44.440 don't like playing basketball with like place to go rest, you just trying to 323 00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:45.680 come to hoop with us. I mean, one time he trying to bully 324 00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:48.680 me on a post. I'm like, hey, man, hold up, 325 00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:49.680 man, you know what I mean. Like, no, it's just gonna 326 00:24:49.720 --> 00:24:52.759 be that now because that's when we started lifting with coach Nanny in a little 327 00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:56.720 bit too. So I'm trying to bunt with him and grind with him, 328 00:24:56.799 --> 00:24:59.480 saying, Irvan to come and play. You know. You know it's like 329 00:24:59.799 --> 00:25:03.200 you know, y'all, y'all move different, you know what I mean different. 330 00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:07.519 But I'm saying that the same with that mind, Frank, because coaches 331 00:25:07.559 --> 00:25:11.119 gotta he got a coach love. First of all, Football is coaches personal 332 00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:14.240 love. Trust me, we have football passing practice. Back in the day 333 00:25:14.279 --> 00:25:17.720 we had on that. I witnessed that personally. So I'm saying for a 334 00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:21.640 guard at Michigan State, mental toughness is the first thing, you know what 335 00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:23.640 I mean. So because you know, as we always say, if the 336 00:25:23.720 --> 00:25:27.680 head dies, the body follows, you know, So our guards, all 337 00:25:27.799 --> 00:25:32.079 of them, I put all of them in that in that in that group, 338 00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:34.599 so they all got to the mental toughness. They challenge each other, 339 00:25:34.680 --> 00:25:37.559 they go hard. That's the first thing you better have through the door when 340 00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:41.440 you a guy in Michigan State is mental toughness. And the rest is, 341 00:25:41.880 --> 00:25:47.000 you know, mental toughness, being ready to lead and bringing people with you. 342 00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:49.720 Man, we big on that, like I'm big, like watching feel 343 00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:53.559 like I make Jin grab the rest of the wings. We're finna watch him 344 00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:56.039 and he's just gonna be you, you know what I mean. So we 345 00:25:56.440 --> 00:26:00.480 we big on that. But you gotta have that. You if you don't 346 00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:03.920 have that mental toughness and trying to lead and willing to get people to That's 347 00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:06.079 why my team was so great at it.

So you are got some head coach vibes. 496 00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:15.840 And that's what it's crazy how they got the voice and to walk. 497 00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:21.199 If you saw that video, like they all get their likes and mannerisms all 498 00:36:21.360 --> 00:36:31.440 through up manner. I love it, guys it this is the winning national 499 00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:35.599 championship. After that, you know, celebrate. But I wanted to show 500 00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:39.199 I wanted to show him that because clearly he obviously paved the way. Like 501 00:36:39.280 --> 00:36:45.440 the foundation, like we talked about, like guys now with the coaching staff 502 00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:47.320 that we don't know who's coming in and who's gonna get hired, but got 503 00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:50.760 to be committed to like it took us a minute, But we had to 504 00:36:50.800 --> 00:36:53.760 be committed to like we are rebuilding, like we are the foundation, and 505 00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:58.119 once you embraced that, I think that's the element where things start to come 506 00:36:58.159 --> 00:37:00.599 and play, where this is bigger than you and I think that's when we 507 00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:05.280 finally start to you know, shooting attest to him because d came over. 508 00:37:05.760 --> 00:37:08.360 It's like you had to get get to know the staff and understand the goals 509 00:37:08.519 --> 00:37:13.599 objectives. But like, I think you're showing that that national championship with the 510 00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:20.119 Flintstones is that they started with coach Izzo taking over and understanding that t K 511 00:37:20.320 --> 00:37:22.679 was part of that foundation and now full circle. I just think it's bigger 512 00:37:22.719 --> 00:37:29.199 than you like and they still are are but they say thriving off the results 513 00:37:29.519 --> 00:37:32.519 and the fruits of that labor from back in the day. So I just 514 00:37:32.559 --> 00:37:36.000 want to say that that's that was That was a good interview because we needed 515 00:37:36.119 --> 00:37:38.400 we needed some of that juice and showing that like Friday, man, it's 516 00:37:38.480 --> 00:37:43.199 kind of like basketball's coming in and that crossover, it's like we need that 517 00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:45.000 on campus, man, And if you saw it is on camp out, 518 00:37:45.199 --> 00:37:51.760 you would know it's it's ready.

So 539 00:39:21.719 --> 00:39:25.760 the talk has been since we last talked about a football game was who's gonna 540 00:39:25.760 --> 00:39:30.119 play quarterback? Who? So here we are today, we're gonna break it 541 00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:36.760 down. We're gonna see and take evaluation of both Noah Kim and kateen Houser. 542 00:39:36.840 --> 00:39:43.400 Here, guys, let's get at it. Let's yeah, buddy, 543 00:39:43.719 --> 00:39:46.519 don't get scared now. You want to ride we out here. So we 544 00:39:46.679 --> 00:39:50.199 have a we have some plays here we want to break down, and let's 545 00:39:50.280 --> 00:39:52.280 let's bring up here. What do we have first? Is this Noah? 546 00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:59.360 This looks like this is uh Noah from the Richmond game. This is uh 547 00:39:59.599 --> 00:40:05.800 Noah here getting a lot of when he's in in the game and he has 548 00:40:05.880 --> 00:40:08.119 to protection. It has to time. You know, he can make plays 549 00:40:08.239 --> 00:40:17.679 like this. So let's go ahead and run the Let's run it. Lots 550 00:40:17.719 --> 00:40:22.639 of time, receivers running great routes, getting some some uh you know, 551 00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:25.480 separation from their guys, and Noah can have the ability to place the ball 552 00:40:25.880 --> 00:40:30.360 in the brad basket just like that. A good play action fake because you 553 00:40:30.440 --> 00:40:31.880 see that. If we can go back to the beginning of this play, 554 00:40:31.960 --> 00:40:35.679 because what what a lot of people don't realize is look at look at it. 555 00:40:36.639 --> 00:40:38.400 Let's go back to the start first, all right, now, I 556 00:40:38.519 --> 00:40:43.679 want you to take a look at the safeties and take a look at the 557 00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:46.000 linebackers. This is what we always talk about. A run. A good 558 00:40:46.119 --> 00:40:50.840 running game is gonna help the passing game. So if you see that and 559 00:40:50.960 --> 00:40:53.880 you see this hard play action here, because we've had success running the football 560 00:40:53.920 --> 00:41:00.239 throughout the game. So when the ball snaps and that that running back puts 561 00:41:00.280 --> 00:41:01.920 his arm up like he's gonna get the ball. You're taught us to running 562 00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:05.719 back, get the ball, burrow your shoulder and rock the baby. The 563 00:41:05.800 --> 00:41:08.519 quarterback is gonna give a hard play action sell. And what will happen if 564 00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:12.920 you do that? Well, because you've been running the football well throughout the 565 00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:16.800 game, you're gonna get that safety in those linebackers sucking up and then boom, 566 00:41:16.840 --> 00:41:20.239 you can go over the top and things like this can happen. You 567 00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:31.960 see those linebackers and say that safety was recute because that like oh yeah, 568 00:41:32.119 --> 00:41:37.239 and now the next thing you see is tail lights. So the best thing 569 00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:38.880 about it. You have to be able to run the football, and they 570 00:41:38.880 --> 00:41:43.440 give your quarterback this time here, and Noah will be able to do things 571 00:41:43.599 --> 00:41:49.320 like this. All right, Noah Kim in rhythm there, throwing a nice 572 00:41:49.360 --> 00:41:53.159 ball for a touchdown to Antonio Gates. Junie. Yeah, now let's look 573 00:41:53.199 --> 00:41:59.400 at another play, keep it rolling. This is Noah Kim. The first 574 00:41:59.440 --> 00:42:02.199 play was Noah him good and just know him not so good here. So 575 00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:07.000 this is an interception that he throws. You see, he's going for his 576 00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:12.440 receiver going across the middle in a in a deep drag or some will call 577 00:42:12.440 --> 00:42:16.599 it an over route there and he just having to have that ball hanging up 578 00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:22.440 a little bit there so we can go ahead and play it. Ooh. 579 00:42:23.480 --> 00:42:27.360 You know it's crazy though, because like you know, you talk about this 580 00:42:27.519 --> 00:42:31.159 linebacker dropping down where clearly he's supposed to be covering the hook curl, but 581 00:42:31.239 --> 00:42:35.440 he sees there's nobody there. So he just rereaded eyes on the quarterback, 582 00:42:35.840 --> 00:42:37.840 and I think that's where the element of you know, you thought he was 583 00:42:38.079 --> 00:42:40.840 supposed to be where he's supposed to be. Clearly, he's reading your eyes. 584 00:42:40.920 --> 00:42:45.519 So as soon as that ball comes up gets released, he's already a 585 00:42:45.599 --> 00:42:49.559 motion to intercept that ball. But you know, to your point, no, 586 00:42:49.840 --> 00:42:52.440 obviously you don't see it. It's like a blind side right like if 587 00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:55.960 it's that half right side with blinded or what. But uh, you know 588 00:42:57.079 --> 00:42:59.960 we seen him throw make great play, it's great, great great throws. 589 00:43:00.480 --> 00:43:04.719 But in that standpoint, there was no distress. He wasn't getting no pressure. 590 00:43:05.000 --> 00:43:07.480 I think that's just an element of the decision making of throwing that ball 591 00:43:07.559 --> 00:43:12.639 where he should through it earlier clearly versus holding like you said too long. 592 00:43:13.239 --> 00:43:15.519 Yeah, what I would like to see, you know, from Noah going 593 00:43:15.639 --> 00:43:20.119 for this, I want to see him look off defenders, look off the 594 00:43:20.239 --> 00:43:23.599 safeties a lot. Sometimes he has a tendency sometimes to stare down his receiver. 595 00:43:23.679 --> 00:43:27.800 And in that play there, like you said, otis that defender was 596 00:43:27.840 --> 00:43:30.880 reading his eyes and he knew exactly where that ball was going. So if 597 00:43:31.000 --> 00:43:35.760 I want to see him as he progressed in the whole. The maturation process 598 00:43:35.880 --> 00:43:39.440 of being a quarterback is looking off defenders. Now, you know you you 599 00:43:39.559 --> 00:43:43.639 saw it with the play actual he was able to do that and suck up 600 00:43:43.679 --> 00:43:45.519 the defenders. Now now he has to be able to look off the safeties, 601 00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:49.400 look off the linebackers, and those things will open up for him. 602 00:43:50.239 --> 00:43:52.800 Yeah, like like it's okay to do a pump thing, you know what 603 00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:59.519 I mean, like sports in football, I don't understand it, but yeah, 604 00:44:00.280 --> 00:44:02.400 you're right, guys. We now let's break down Kate Olser here, 605 00:44:02.719 --> 00:44:07.880 we have some of that tape right that was got a looks like a good 606 00:44:07.960 --> 00:44:14.320 play from Caton. You know, it's kind of like like last year where 607 00:44:14.800 --> 00:44:19.639 Noah was coming in for Peyton Thorn. You know, it's an element of 608 00:44:20.440 --> 00:44:22.400 uh, you know, he's seen it. Obviously, we have no points 609 00:44:22.440 --> 00:44:25.119 on the board, so it kind of gets some opportunity to just really kind 610 00:44:25.119 --> 00:44:28.360 of let loose and see what he can do. So coming out there, 611 00:44:28.519 --> 00:44:32.960 fresh you know, fresh mind, you've been watching that defense for till like 612 00:44:34.119 --> 00:44:37.079 till fourth quarter, so you should have some element to come out there and 613 00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:38.639 say, hey, I know that this can be open on this post, 614 00:44:38.719 --> 00:44:44.199 but this play man that was a perfect pass, perfect catch from a snap 615 00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:47.480 to throw only you know, finishing the play with the receiver. But that 616 00:44:47.639 --> 00:44:51.559 was the biggest pass we had almost all game, you know, with that 617 00:44:51.800 --> 00:44:55.280 that post and so you can see very poised in the in the back back 618 00:44:55.440 --> 00:45:00.119 end where you get that protected halo you know from the office of line and 619 00:45:00.599 --> 00:45:02.199 you know straight you can attest to it. If you give him a perfect 620 00:45:02.239 --> 00:45:07.239 halo and he makes plays, then you know that's the element from a great 621 00:45:07.320 --> 00:45:10.559 quarterback. Just aggressive. You have the opportunity to be aggressive. There's nothing 622 00:45:10.639 --> 00:45:15.519 to lose. So there's a different mindset, right You're playing trying to say, 623 00:45:15.519 --> 00:45:16.800 I just want to give us a spark. No, I can't make 624 00:45:16.880 --> 00:45:20.119 up for you one points, but I don't give a spark. And he's 625 00:45:20.159 --> 00:45:22.239 aggressive similar to what Noah was doing when he came in last year. So 626 00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:27.119 you know, I think it's an element of how can this battle kind of 627 00:45:27.159 --> 00:45:30.480 now be in season and you know you're going to give Kateen a chance and 628 00:45:30.679 --> 00:45:35.320 you know, just know, like I think we may see two quarterback option 629 00:45:35.519 --> 00:45:39.079 or opportunity depending on how this game goes. Yeah, you're absolutely right. 630 00:45:39.360 --> 00:45:44.159 Some of the strengths that Caen has Kayten has a strong arm and he you 631 00:45:44.239 --> 00:45:45.840 know, he's a he's a bigger body quarterbacks. So if you want to 632 00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:51.480 do those like Philadelphia Eagles have coined the tush push, if you want to 633 00:45:51.559 --> 00:45:53.920 do that, Kayten is a guy that will be able to Honker down and 634 00:45:54.000 --> 00:45:58.199 get those you know, tough short yard each there. As you saw even 635 00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:00.119 when he was you know, running. I hate to see a quarterback diving, 636 00:46:00.559 --> 00:46:05.159 you know, on in second down. I hate to see a quarterback 637 00:46:05.400 --> 00:46:07.320 diving and stretching his body and putting his body out there like that. But 638 00:46:07.760 --> 00:46:13.519 that's the competitiveness that Cayden Houser has and both these guys are very, very 639 00:46:13.599 --> 00:46:15.800 competitive. But you know, just like the same thing with Noah. You 640 00:46:15.880 --> 00:46:22.800 know, you talked about good good plays going through and making the right reads 641 00:46:22.880 --> 00:46:24.760 and you know, getting the ball down there with strong with you know, 642 00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:29.920 with strength. You know, there's also the bad side of it. So 643 00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:37.199 we have an interception here from Caydenhuser on a screenplay just gets it up, 644 00:46:37.280 --> 00:46:39.599 you know, over gets it up too much. And if you go back 645 00:46:39.639 --> 00:46:44.599 to the beginning of that, yes it's a screenplay and you can play it, 646 00:46:45.320 --> 00:46:49.360 but you always you want to see a quarterback set his feet a little 647 00:46:49.400 --> 00:46:52.719 bit on the screen. I know, you're taught as a quarterback to drift, 648 00:46:52.079 --> 00:46:54.599 get yards, drift, drift, drift, but you can't be back 649 00:46:54.719 --> 00:46:59.480 pedaling and throw that. You're not going to have the control as you would 650 00:46:59.639 --> 00:47:01.679 on you know, on on the football there. And he just happened to 651 00:47:01.760 --> 00:47:05.960 sail that right into the arms of the defender there. So those are some 652 00:47:06.079 --> 00:47:07.920 of the things for the good stuff that and we see this for Michigan State 653 00:47:08.000 --> 00:47:12.000 quarterbacks this year. The good stuff that you see, you know, the 654 00:47:12.360 --> 00:47:15.039 strong throws, the good decision makings, and then there's times that you you 655 00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:19.719 know, there's just head scratching plays that you will see. But I think 656 00:47:19.840 --> 00:47:23.440 it's you know, it's an open competition, you know, Coach Barnett said, 657 00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:27.920 you know, he's not gonna say who's gonna start till we get there. 658 00:47:28.519 --> 00:47:31.360 But both these guys can play off each other. Well, they're both 659 00:47:31.480 --> 00:47:36.000 competitive guys. And so, you know, like otis alluded to, do 660 00:47:36.159 --> 00:47:38.840 we see you know, a two quarterback, do we see different packages for 661 00:47:38.960 --> 00:47:43.559 different guys, you know, or do we see spark guys? Guy go 662 00:47:43.719 --> 00:47:45.440 in and try to create a spark for the team. So that's what we're 663 00:47:45.440 --> 00:47:50.880 gonna have to keep an eye off for. But for whichever quarterback that starts 664 00:47:50.960 --> 00:47:53.679 the game, what I want to see from them is command of that offense, 665 00:47:54.599 --> 00:47:59.360 staying on schedule, and when I say staying on schedule, keeping it 666 00:47:59.599 --> 00:48:01.920 keeping as you're supposed to be. First down, you pick up four or 667 00:48:01.960 --> 00:48:06.559 five yards. So with second and four, second and six, you know, 668 00:48:06.840 --> 00:48:08.000 that's what you want to do. Second, third downs. You don't 669 00:48:08.039 --> 00:48:10.679 want to be behind the chains. You don't want to third and twelve, 670 00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:15.159 third and ten because it's a lot tougher to get out of those holes too, 671 00:48:15.360 --> 00:48:17.119 you know, as a quarterback. So I want to see the quarterback 672 00:48:17.360 --> 00:48:21.639 have command of that offense, have that confidence for going out there, and 673 00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:27.679 limit the mistake. The self inflicting wounds has to stop. Second yeah, 674 00:48:29.119 --> 00:48:30.920 yeah, you know, you know. And I see in the chat people 675 00:48:31.000 --> 00:48:37.480 talking about the play call on the third three yard line for a screenplay. 676 00:48:37.480 --> 00:48:40.239 I don't understand it either. Listen. I can't sit there and be like, 677 00:48:40.320 --> 00:48:45.159 oh, well, this is what you're right, run the yeah, 678 00:48:45.239 --> 00:48:50.039 yeah, yeah, I was right, Like, it's the same situation we 679 00:48:50.199 --> 00:48:53.320 first attended the reds zone. Yeah, we want to pass the rock now, 680 00:48:53.440 --> 00:48:59.000 I know it's a different circumstance with the Maryland game twenty four nine. 681 00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:00.760 We could have scored and it would have been a ball game. He still 682 00:49:00.760 --> 00:49:05.519 had six minutes left. But like, why why, like you said, 683 00:49:05.639 --> 00:49:07.920 why make that pop path call? When you get on the first team, 684 00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:10.440 like you said, get you can get positive yards and make the car of 685 00:49:10.519 --> 00:49:14.960 four or five yards pop? So why not why not just handing off to 686 00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:16.679 see what we can do in second down? All right, let's let's mix, 687 00:49:16.760 --> 00:49:20.679 and let's mix a mingo on the pass and run. But it's just 688 00:49:20.840 --> 00:49:23.280 mind boggle. That is a thrown in our offensive side right there is getting 689 00:49:23.360 --> 00:49:29.159 down there and you just forget what got you down there. It's mind boggling 690 00:49:29.320 --> 00:49:31.400 from a defensive mind. Stand boy, I'm on there, like man, 691 00:49:31.440 --> 00:49:35.239 we got score, Like I'm sitting there looking come on man, and I'll 692 00:49:35.280 --> 00:49:37.440 tell you, like, you know, why would you make that call? 693 00:49:37.559 --> 00:49:44.039 It's easy you could predict that play. So momentum killers, drive killers, 694 00:49:44.199 --> 00:49:49.800 team killers. Hey, you know, I mean shoot blooding uh beast mode 695 00:49:50.000 --> 00:49:53.559 on uh in the chase whatever it is. You know, when he's talking 696 00:49:53.599 --> 00:49:59.519 about that play, you know everybody talks about that with the Seattle Seahawks and 697 00:49:59.519 --> 00:50:02.119 the Super Bowl, don't. I mean you got a dog like that to 698 00:50:02.199 --> 00:50:05.639 get you down there. It's on the three inside the five yard line, 699 00:50:05.840 --> 00:50:08.760 run the ball if you got to pass it. All offensive coordinators out there, 700 00:50:08.800 --> 00:50:14.199 young ones, I'm not talking to ours young offensive coordinators down in the 701 00:50:14.280 --> 00:50:16.440 red zone, like, especially inside the five yard line, is you're gonna 702 00:50:16.480 --> 00:50:21.920 throw if you have to throw boots or rollouts with options and if you don't 703 00:50:21.960 --> 00:50:25.199 see it, throw the damn thing away and it back in it and zone. 704 00:50:25.280 --> 00:50:30.199 Right, And that's what everybody knows, right, yeah, absolutely every 705 00:50:30.360 --> 00:50:35.119 all all the boys on the in the trenches and the boys that catch the 706 00:50:35.199 --> 00:50:38.360 ball and get all the pretty girls all agree. Okay, that's what you 707 00:50:38.440 --> 00:50:40.360 do. You just don't do this kind of stuff. We don't go. 708 00:50:40.440 --> 00:50:45.639 We don't get it. But listen, a quarterback as a quarterback, I 709 00:50:45.920 --> 00:50:49.119 got one anyway, but look like theres a quarterback. You should have all 710 00:50:49.159 --> 00:50:52.920 the clubs we talk about having all the different clubs and golfing, you know, 711 00:50:52.079 --> 00:50:55.199 not just the driver. You also have to be able to chip and 712 00:50:55.360 --> 00:51:00.039 put. That means being able to make the touch throws. Just because you 713 00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:02.039 have a strong arm doesn't mean you need to throw through somebody in order to 714 00:51:02.079 --> 00:51:05.559 make a play. Sometimes you got to be able to take something off set 715 00:51:05.639 --> 00:51:09.719 in your feet helps that whoever the starter is. You talked about this go 716 00:51:09.719 --> 00:51:13.639 ahead, yeah, no, and you you talked about that. You have 717 00:51:13.800 --> 00:51:16.199 to be able to have the touch plays and everything. That's when when we 718 00:51:16.360 --> 00:51:22.280 saw I believe it was the the Richmond game. You talk about touch throws. 719 00:51:22.280 --> 00:51:24.119 I wish we had this here. When Noah Kim had that touch throw 720 00:51:24.239 --> 00:51:28.719 to a tight tight end Hopper, you know, right across the middle there 721 00:51:28.760 --> 00:51:31.280 when he got in there. It was a beautiful, beautiful throw just to 722 00:51:31.440 --> 00:51:34.920 touch pass that. He was the only one that could be able to you 723 00:51:35.679 --> 00:51:38.320 if you miked his hands up, you wouldn't hear the ball hitting his hands 724 00:51:38.360 --> 00:51:45.000 because that's how soft that ball was thrown over what Hopper eventually got hurt on 725 00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:47.400 that play, right, No, no, no, that's he scored a 726 00:51:47.480 --> 00:51:51.599 touchdown on that touchdown. Yes, yes, he scored a touchdown on that 727 00:51:51.639 --> 00:51:53.320 play. But then going later on in the game, he got hurt on 728 00:51:53.400 --> 00:51:57.599 that. But that's the that's what to Straight's point, that's what you have 729 00:51:57.719 --> 00:52:01.920 to understand. You have to drive for show Puttford Doe there you go, 730 00:52:04.159 --> 00:52:07.039 let's go into Rutgers more like like okay, so that's a quarterback breakdown and 731 00:52:07.079 --> 00:52:09.760 we're gonna get in the game day stat breakdown right now. Brought to you 732 00:52:09.840 --> 00:52:16.559 by Maine Financial Group, Fellas Main Financial Security Future with Maine Financial Group called 733 00:52:16.679 --> 00:52:23.079 Fellas over two four eight three four seven Main Main Financialgroup dot Com. Fellas. 734 00:52:23.920 --> 00:52:28.079 We got plays, I know we've been. You've got got a basketball 735 00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:31.320 interviews, We've got quarterback breakdowns done some Olympic sports. We got to get 736 00:52:31.320 --> 00:52:37.920 into some place where there are opportunities for Michigan State here, both both offensively 737 00:52:37.960 --> 00:52:40.800 and defensively to make places. And this is we're gonna show someplace here for 738 00:52:42.559 --> 00:52:46.360 what is this the Rutgers defense I believe? Yeah, so this is this 739 00:52:46.719 --> 00:52:52.039 last week Rutgers was playing against Wisconsin. Right here, this is the defense 740 00:52:52.119 --> 00:52:54.239 is so this is Michigan State's offense. If you're looking at this, we 741 00:52:54.320 --> 00:53:00.559 have trips to the right, no tight ends in the game to and just 742 00:53:00.639 --> 00:53:05.760 one running back, just one running back. So now, as as a 743 00:53:05.800 --> 00:53:08.280 defender, now you know your your keys go. You know you look at 744 00:53:08.320 --> 00:53:13.199 the guards. You know what what's gonna happen there? If these guards pop 745 00:53:13.320 --> 00:53:15.239 right up, it's a pass. If they're staying low, you know, 746 00:53:15.440 --> 00:53:17.280 it's a run. If so, if you don't know, let's let's go 747 00:53:17.320 --> 00:53:23.960 ahead and play this on they pop up, they pop up? What is 748 00:53:27.360 --> 00:53:30.039 that? That's the oldest play. That's the oldest play when he used to 749 00:53:30.079 --> 00:53:36.119 come and cut your knees out. I absolutely hate it. I absolutely hate 750 00:53:36.159 --> 00:53:39.000 it. But to your point, man, uh, that's your keys. 751 00:53:39.159 --> 00:53:43.639 Like from a defensive standpoint, Rutgers, if you look at this d N 752 00:53:43.800 --> 00:53:45.880 left the end, I mean this gets the guy gets off the ball quick. 753 00:53:46.079 --> 00:53:50.840 Where he's having this tackle is having problems at every snap when you watch 754 00:53:50.920 --> 00:53:54.360 this game, but they start to see that these guys keep flying past the 755 00:53:54.679 --> 00:53:59.960 breaking point. So it's wide open. That's where I feel like we used 756 00:54:00.239 --> 00:54:02.519 Our office needs to look at these tendencies man, like you need to be 757 00:54:02.559 --> 00:54:06.960 able to be aggressive, sell the pass, and able to give that drawing. 758 00:54:07.119 --> 00:54:10.280 That's Toto's favorite players. With the ocean wide open, He's party. 759 00:54:10.599 --> 00:54:15.639 It's just you and whoever that small linebacker or that dB where you can abuse 760 00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:19.880 abuse those guys. Yeah, to otis this point that Rutgers defensive ends. 761 00:54:19.920 --> 00:54:22.920 They're very aggressive, So what you want to do is you want to try 762 00:54:23.000 --> 00:54:27.760 to take advantage of their aggressiveness. Just like you saw there. You know 763 00:54:27.880 --> 00:54:30.360 that little shovel pass that they did, and the beauty of that shovel pass. 764 00:54:30.360 --> 00:54:34.000 If he drops it, it's an incomplete pass. It's not a fumble 765 00:54:34.239 --> 00:54:37.280 anything like that. So they want to take avengers those guys are coming upfield 766 00:54:37.400 --> 00:54:40.679 or if they're crashing. You know, if they're coming upfield, the middle 767 00:54:40.760 --> 00:54:44.480 is going to be soft and ready to go. But if they're crashing down, 768 00:54:44.599 --> 00:54:45.920 now you start to look at maybe, hey, let's look at a 769 00:54:46.039 --> 00:54:51.119 zone read here. If this ends crashing down, I'm gonna stick that ball 770 00:54:51.199 --> 00:54:53.280 and then running back to belly, pull it as a quarterback and go around 771 00:54:53.360 --> 00:54:57.320 the edge there and help. If you even want to get a little cheeky 772 00:54:57.440 --> 00:55:00.039 now, stray, you know you you do that. You've noticed that m's 773 00:55:00.079 --> 00:55:04.079 crashing, crash and crashing. You stick it in, pull it out, 774 00:55:04.119 --> 00:55:07.280 and you pull a guard out there, that guard one on one with the 775 00:55:07.400 --> 00:55:10.880 corner or they can't cut anymore. They can't cut you to create a pile. 776 00:55:12.159 --> 00:55:15.000 So it's it's that that corner or safety has to make a business decisions. 777 00:55:17.599 --> 00:55:22.320 Man. I am, but look, I'm picking choose. It's a 778 00:55:22.440 --> 00:55:27.119 long time. You have to make that business decision. Now which one listen 779 00:55:27.159 --> 00:55:31.039 because because the thing is, like, the best site for a running back 780 00:55:31.280 --> 00:55:37.800 is to be running and you see those hamhocks by a big jersey like a 781 00:55:37.920 --> 00:55:40.599 sixty five or seventy nine in front of you, and just see those booty 782 00:55:40.719 --> 00:55:45.599 cheeks just bouncing boo boo boot lineman in front of you. There, that's 783 00:55:45.679 --> 00:55:50.960 the beauty thing that a running back wants to see. The scary thing UH 784 00:55:51.159 --> 00:55:53.920 defender want to see, especially a corner of safety is a big seventy nine 785 00:55:53.920 --> 00:55:58.719 to sixty five whatever coming at you. Because those boys are like, this 786 00:55:58.960 --> 00:56:04.239 is my opportunity and banging heads with lot with d lineman linebackers. This little 787 00:56:04.280 --> 00:56:07.000 cat right here, this is my opportunity for film. When we're watching film 788 00:56:07.079 --> 00:56:15.599 the next day, I'm gonna yeah, yes, sir. Or the draft 789 00:56:15.760 --> 00:56:19.639 highlights. You know, you're trying to get some draft highlights right there. 790 00:56:19.800 --> 00:56:22.880 If you get out in space and the dvs don't want that, yeah, 791 00:56:22.920 --> 00:56:24.440 you gotta close the gap. Let's look at this play right here. Let's 792 00:56:24.519 --> 00:56:29.480 let's let's keep it going with the ruptors defense talking about all the different options 793 00:56:29.519 --> 00:56:32.599 with the quarterback. Run here you go. Yeah, let's go ahead and 794 00:56:32.679 --> 00:56:37.920 let's play it here. See once again, the dns are coming down the 795 00:56:38.039 --> 00:56:42.960 quarterbacks. You want to step up in up you can't get as a quarterback. 796 00:56:43.039 --> 00:56:45.760 Now you have to realize now those d ns are gonna be really aggressive, 797 00:56:45.840 --> 00:56:49.800 really aggressive, and if they're going outside, old lineman, you can 798 00:56:49.920 --> 00:56:52.199 just ride them outside. Quarterbacks, This is not the game to be going 799 00:56:52.320 --> 00:56:55.719 lateral. No, this is not the game to be going lateral. Now, 800 00:56:57.000 --> 00:56:59.800 you trust your trust your offensive line. They're gonna create a pocket for 801 00:56:59.880 --> 00:57:02.400 you and step up in the pocket. Just like that step up in the 802 00:57:02.480 --> 00:57:07.320 pocket if you want that, you're still gonna have the opportunity to throw. 803 00:57:07.559 --> 00:57:09.840 If the run lanes there, run the football. But the quarterbacks, you 804 00:57:09.920 --> 00:57:15.960 can't go lateral on this Rutgers team, especially with their defensive ends, how 805 00:57:15.079 --> 00:57:20.440 hard and aggressive they play. You see that linebacker getting the conflict right out 806 00:57:20.480 --> 00:57:22.599 there. You see that right he's in the conflict. You don't know if 807 00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:27.000 you've got to cover or come up and make the play that like, that's 808 00:57:27.000 --> 00:57:31.159 how you brought It's a tough analysis because we know Wisconsin linemen are very sound. 809 00:57:31.719 --> 00:57:37.000 They are like legit blockers like they're all American blockers, so it's tough 810 00:57:37.039 --> 00:57:40.760 to really kind of get a breakdown on the two D tackles because they can't 811 00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:44.800 get off these one on one blocks. Look at it like there's no pressure 812 00:57:44.800 --> 00:57:47.119 in the middle. So for us is we gotta hold our own in that 813 00:57:47.239 --> 00:57:51.639 middle, because yeah, these guys are coming off firing off the ball. 814 00:57:51.719 --> 00:57:53.519 But that one on one, if you can protect that, I mean there's 815 00:57:53.519 --> 00:57:55.920 gonna be those gaps and those holes, and hey, like we said, 816 00:57:55.920 --> 00:58:01.400 the four holes gonna see some production. You know, you gotta get more 817 00:58:01.480 --> 00:58:05.880 production than the four hole. Let's go, Let's go to the other side 818 00:58:05.880 --> 00:58:10.840 of the ball. Brugers offense here, Let's look at the offensive personnel now 819 00:58:10.960 --> 00:58:16.199 listen, like listen, like, let's pause on here because we saw last 820 00:58:16.239 --> 00:58:22.480 year, how uh he gave him some problems last year, Like young QB. 821 00:58:22.960 --> 00:58:25.760 This is a different coordinator. Cornet just gotta let go. But this 822 00:58:25.960 --> 00:58:30.639 is a young QB who is talented from just raw talent itself. Now with 823 00:58:30.760 --> 00:58:35.719 a new coordinator, now you see him more poised because I know we got 824 00:58:35.800 --> 00:58:38.639 after him last year. But if you're looking right now, we're trips right 825 00:58:39.119 --> 00:58:43.559 and the Tennessees are like the same. Like on the other side of the 826 00:58:43.639 --> 00:58:46.199 ball. What are these offensive alignment doing. They're firing off the ball clearly 827 00:58:46.639 --> 00:58:50.679 quick snap, there's no quick read. He's going straight to the flat. 828 00:58:50.960 --> 00:58:54.920 Now this this this outside linebacker slash the nickelback right here. That's head on 829 00:58:55.320 --> 00:58:59.280 mono, mono. It shouldn't even have a flat route to beginning. But 830 00:58:59.320 --> 00:59:09.039 snapped the ball, but nobody's touched up. So we talked about our defense 831 00:59:09.159 --> 00:59:14.800 are having the struggle of getting hands on your receiver in a reroute. This 832 00:59:14.960 --> 00:59:20.000 reroute would ultimately just eliminate the pass route passing the time in the QB passed 833 00:59:20.039 --> 00:59:23.239 to the quick flat route. If you get hands on just the first guy 834 00:59:23.360 --> 00:59:27.679 off the ball and then ride it to the flat, this is a PBu 835 00:59:28.119 --> 00:59:30.840 or it's a quick tackle, or it could be an interception if you truly 836 00:59:30.840 --> 00:59:34.119 are reading your keys. But look how quickly he's not wasting any time. 837 00:59:34.199 --> 00:59:37.719 He's staring it down. And so for us, everybody should be flying to 838 00:59:37.719 --> 00:59:42.119 the ball, eyes on the ball, and so the pressure if you go 839 00:59:42.239 --> 00:59:49.159 to the next play, this this this offense for for us, these guys 840 00:59:49.199 --> 00:59:52.000 are gonna work hard just like we work hard. Like this is a great 841 00:59:52.079 --> 00:59:55.639 Ciano's office. This is a team that's strictly, strictly mentally tough. They 842 00:59:55.679 --> 00:59:59.079 don't care about what's happening. They're gonna play hard. But go ahead, 843 00:59:59.360 --> 01:00:02.400 you got to got Gavin winsat is a quarterback. But don't forget number twenty 844 01:00:02.440 --> 01:00:08.400 one to Johnny Langan, Johnny Langham, he's he's a guy he played for 845 01:00:08.519 --> 01:00:12.840 the first couple of years he played quarterback and then he was a guy that 846 01:00:12.960 --> 01:00:16.159 they will bring him in when they're inside the five. He said, tough, 847 01:00:16.440 --> 01:00:20.920 hard nose, hard nosed guy that they will run the ball with him 848 01:00:20.920 --> 01:00:24.000 inside the five. So if I'm Michigan State and I see Johnny Langham number 849 01:00:24.039 --> 01:00:30.639 twenty one, number TWENTI if I'm no, no, I'm just saying, 850 01:00:30.920 --> 01:00:35.800 keep your your antennas up. Because he he was the former quarterback now playing 851 01:00:35.880 --> 01:00:38.639 tight end. So majority of the time the percentages, he's gonna run the 852 01:00:38.679 --> 01:00:44.360 football. But if you're inside that five there watch that little t bow jump 853 01:00:44.559 --> 01:00:46.880 tam. Yeah. So you've got to stay hold of that safety now, 854 01:00:46.920 --> 01:00:50.960 otis because you can be conflicted because you think, hey, he's gonna run 855 01:00:51.000 --> 01:00:52.960 the football, but they could run that tight end could they call it an 856 01:00:53.000 --> 01:00:57.880 old old shoot screen? There the tight end blocks one one thousand and two 857 01:00:57.920 --> 01:01:00.840 one thousand slips out and you know, doing a crossing around there, that 858 01:01:00.960 --> 01:01:05.239 quarterback takes two steps lower, his shoulder, pops up and jumps it in 859 01:01:05.320 --> 01:01:07.880 there because that safety is sucking him thinking it's a run. So listen, 860 01:01:08.000 --> 01:01:13.039 whim sat is a good runner himself when he exactly jets on too, so 861 01:01:15.599 --> 01:01:23.119 so you know he's fast. Shoe lads, shoe lads, then run the 862 01:01:23.159 --> 01:01:28.000 play, run the play, run the play. Yeah, look quick. 863 01:01:28.760 --> 01:01:30.199 Then oh my god, let's go back. Let's go back. We gotta 864 01:01:30.239 --> 01:01:34.360 go back because this was this man was beat from the jump. Now you 865 01:01:35.320 --> 01:01:38.840 he signed, young young boy. This is like this is a kid at 866 01:01:38.840 --> 01:01:42.280 a candy shot right here. Look at this, like go back to go 867 01:01:42.400 --> 01:01:45.039 back to twinkle toes fifty five, Like if I'm looking at this immiliately on 868 01:01:45.119 --> 01:01:49.960 the snap, look at these feet, Oh my gosh, don't even kicks 869 01:01:51.000 --> 01:01:57.440 went on the inside was like, look look at the games out you slap 870 01:01:57.599 --> 01:02:01.320 that down, He's going down. He looked like what yeah, but look 871 01:02:01.400 --> 01:02:05.039 look at the speed, Like on the point of that, our dns need 872 01:02:05.119 --> 01:02:08.400 the wakest move and get to quarterback because this is a great ball obviously to 873 01:02:08.920 --> 01:02:14.599 your boy to one right, not me, but but from a standpoint, 874 01:02:14.840 --> 01:02:19.280 look, look where number twenty one is coming from though it's a yes. 875 01:02:19.880 --> 01:02:24.320 So we all have that kind of like sloop hole of our linebackers haven't really 876 01:02:24.360 --> 01:02:28.239 got them much depth. Now we've been playing way better, like obviously we're 877 01:02:28.239 --> 01:02:31.880 getting takeovers, we're getting turnovers. But somebody's got to put a hand on 878 01:02:32.000 --> 01:02:36.840 the receiver coming off the ball, and that's tied here. That's anybody come 879 01:02:36.920 --> 01:02:39.400 up. Somebody's got to get one here here, let him lose, but 880 01:02:39.639 --> 01:02:44.440 slow it down so it messes up the time, and I don't it's it's 881 01:02:44.599 --> 01:02:47.760 inherited. It is vital to get a reroute. And I don't know why 882 01:02:47.800 --> 01:02:52.960 it's getting lost in that transition or translation on the defense, but reroute, 883 01:02:52.039 --> 01:02:57.519 reroute, reroute. You gotta slow speed down for your quarterback makes a guess 884 01:02:57.639 --> 01:03:00.280 like, oh, he's not there when I throw the ball because somebody held 885 01:03:00.320 --> 01:03:02.880 him up. Got them right, and it's okay to push them on the 886 01:03:02.920 --> 01:03:07.280 ground too, like in that fight, it's okay to get this man down. 887 01:03:08.679 --> 01:03:13.559 The thing too that you said with the important part about that reroute is 888 01:03:13.800 --> 01:03:16.519 for quarterback side of things. It throws off the time. And you know, 889 01:03:16.679 --> 01:03:19.679 like you said, it was if you reroute and then if you have 890 01:03:19.760 --> 01:03:22.800 the opportunity, then that could be oh, oh he's not there, pump 891 01:03:22.880 --> 01:03:27.199 fake. And then our defense and the aggressive ours defensive line has been playing, 892 01:03:27.280 --> 01:03:30.599 and the way that we bring pressure, you have the opportunity to get 893 01:03:30.679 --> 01:03:34.159 and put hits on the quarterback. But it's imperative, like you said, 894 01:03:34.199 --> 01:03:38.280 otis to put hands on these wide receivers and get that reroute and disrupt their 895 01:03:38.360 --> 01:03:43.519 routes. You know, there was a question for Otis here from Darren Tatum. 896 01:03:43.840 --> 01:03:45.639 Otis, how do we get our dbs to turn their head to see 897 01:03:45.679 --> 01:03:51.400 the ball come into the wide receiver. You know what, I'm not trying 898 01:03:51.400 --> 01:03:53.079 to get my chicks and trades because you know, this is something that I'm 899 01:03:53.320 --> 01:04:00.039 to get paid for. You know, this one thing like and and Dylan 900 01:04:00.119 --> 01:04:03.280 knows this probably saying because because Barnett, I'm sure he still says it. 901 01:04:03.719 --> 01:04:08.280 You gotta go to cool school. There's no there there is no room for 902 01:04:08.400 --> 01:04:12.559 panic when you are out in the back end covering. When you are no 903 01:04:12.760 --> 01:04:15.079 you are a hip to pocket. When we talk about hip to pocket. 904 01:04:15.480 --> 01:04:18.079 We talk about here, here's the receiver, here's the dB. This is 905 01:04:18.159 --> 01:04:23.000 out of phase right you. If he's running arount, you are out of 906 01:04:23.039 --> 01:04:26.920 phase. You should not be looking back. That means you're in desperation emergency 907 01:04:27.119 --> 01:04:30.239 SOS. You think you're faster looking back, you're actually slower. But when 908 01:04:30.280 --> 01:04:33.280 I get to hip the pocket and I know I've got a hand on the 909 01:04:33.360 --> 01:04:36.559 hip, and then this is where I start to learn the tricks of the 910 01:04:36.639 --> 01:04:43.159 trade. Is I start to look at the receiver's eyes right like if it 911 01:04:43.239 --> 01:04:46.159 almost it's weird man. But sometimes like that, noise gets canceled out, 912 01:04:46.280 --> 01:04:49.800 like it's quiet, right like you start to see the look to what you 913 01:04:50.000 --> 01:04:54.119 just do. Yes, you started to see the receivers. You start to 914 01:04:54.119 --> 01:04:58.119 see the receiver's eyes get big, and then you looking straight into pupils and 915 01:04:58.199 --> 01:05:00.679 you're sitting there waiting. You see that have kind of reflection where he starts 916 01:05:00.719 --> 01:05:03.880 to look up. That's when you need to look up, and you need 917 01:05:03.920 --> 01:05:08.199 to look up and not go with the short arm. You gotta go with 918 01:05:08.280 --> 01:05:11.519 the long arm because if you miss, we always talk about the longest arm. 919 01:05:11.920 --> 01:05:15.760 If you miss, then you're able to hook and tackle, but you 920 01:05:15.840 --> 01:05:18.000 got to go for the PBu or if you're in the right time, you 921 01:05:18.079 --> 01:05:21.840 can get that interception, a beautiful interception, So for it for an instance. 922 01:05:21.920 --> 01:05:26.000 Sometimes it comes too quick, but you gotta at least have some hand 923 01:05:26.119 --> 01:05:30.119 up to if it hits you. You know I will. You know Malie 924 01:05:30.199 --> 01:05:31.719 Spencer, it hit his hands. Man, it was a perfect interception. 925 01:05:32.159 --> 01:05:36.119 You know. Dylan Tatum comes on that quick little comeback the boss b lining, 926 01:05:36.199 --> 01:05:40.079 but he's in hip the pocket. But sometimes you can't get your eyes 927 01:05:40.199 --> 01:05:43.840 quick round turnaround. But once you stick, you got to turn and look 928 01:05:44.119 --> 01:05:46.320 and move right. So that's an element of you've got to go to cool 929 01:05:46.360 --> 01:05:49.320 school. And I'm still enough for Coach Barnett because he's told us that time 930 01:05:49.400 --> 01:05:54.920 and time again. Don't be panicking, don't be running desperation looking then you're 931 01:05:54.960 --> 01:05:59.559 gonna make a jump, a miracle jump and get extra five feet a vertical 932 01:06:00.119 --> 01:06:01.760 to think you're gonna get that. No, you got to get to the 933 01:06:01.880 --> 01:06:06.039 hit to pocket and then that's where you're able to look. But that's where 934 01:06:06.039 --> 01:06:10.960 the element of quarterbacks too, like Norre Dan was keen for this underthrowing the 935 01:06:11.039 --> 01:06:15.239 ball so receiver can jump up and you know, get a pass interference. 936 01:06:15.320 --> 01:06:18.480 So it's a tough it's a tough position to play. But when you know 937 01:06:18.639 --> 01:06:24.079 and trust your trust, your your instincts, you trust your keys. You 938 01:06:24.239 --> 01:06:27.320 know that you've been watching film on this guy for all week. You know 939 01:06:27.480 --> 01:06:30.320 the mama, you know the daddy. Know you start to study these guys, 940 01:06:30.400 --> 01:06:32.960 you know that I gotta lock this guy down. And that's an element 941 01:06:33.079 --> 01:06:35.800 going to cool school. That's all I can say. Yeah, that's the 942 01:06:35.920 --> 01:06:40.960 that's a big thing there that you that you brought up about learned studying the 943 01:06:41.039 --> 01:06:44.440 guys, knowing what they like. I remember specific for as much as we 944 01:06:44.880 --> 01:06:47.360 you know, we laugh at John l you know, and his coaching staff, 945 01:06:47.400 --> 01:06:50.840 but they had us. We knew the guys that we played. We 946 01:06:50.960 --> 01:06:55.320 had what they called, you know, are before we left for any road 947 01:06:55.320 --> 01:06:58.719 game, before we went to the hotel for home games, or left to 948 01:06:58.719 --> 01:07:00.559 go to the airport. He you sitting in there, You'll be like, 949 01:07:00.599 --> 01:07:04.039 hey, Jay telling me about their middle linebacker. Hey, he's number fifty 950 01:07:04.119 --> 01:07:08.400 five. You know he likes to go with the bull rush. But sometimes 951 01:07:08.440 --> 01:07:11.360 you will spend, you will spend move on you. You gotta stay firm, 952 01:07:11.400 --> 01:07:14.519 you gotta stay hard. With them tough on him there. You know 953 01:07:14.639 --> 01:07:17.599 he's studying sociology. He's in his third year. You know, he lives 954 01:07:17.679 --> 01:07:21.559 in this apartment. Count the more you know about the person, the easier 955 01:07:21.639 --> 01:07:25.320 it is that you can go out there and you can just play. So 956 01:07:25.559 --> 01:07:29.559 that's the big thing is that that film study. For as much as football's 957 01:07:29.559 --> 01:07:32.239 physical, a lot of the mental side of things is where you really win 958 01:07:32.360 --> 01:07:35.079 the football game when it comes to that mental side of things. When you 959 01:07:35.280 --> 01:07:40.119 know your opponent, you know what route they're gonna run, what their favorite 960 01:07:40.199 --> 01:07:43.599 route is, if the quarterback's rolling out to his right, if it's a 961 01:07:43.719 --> 01:07:46.320 scrambled drow, what does this guy like to do? When you understand that, 962 01:07:46.599 --> 01:07:51.800 you're gonna put yourself in position to be successful every time, oh day 963 01:07:51.880 --> 01:07:55.079 long. This is all beautiful stuff right here, guys. You know, 964 01:07:55.320 --> 01:08:00.119 like before we wrap this up, the last time Michigan State visited, I 965 01:08:00.360 --> 01:08:08.039 guess remember this play right here? Do you remember this guy and you believe 966 01:08:08.079 --> 01:08:13.320 it? You better believe it. These boys remember that, remember looking at 967 01:08:13.320 --> 01:08:17.760 that blocking j Reed. Yeah, look, this handshake is cold blooded, 968 01:08:17.800 --> 01:08:26.119 but you know they can remember this. Naylor and Red all three, Uh, 969 01:08:26.720 --> 01:08:30.720 you know, done on that we haven't had that since and now we 970 01:08:30.840 --> 01:08:33.720 need to get it back now, all right, we haven't had that long 971 01:08:33.880 --> 01:08:38.680 run since. We'll get it. We'll get it now. It's homecoming. 972 01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:44.520 It's homecoming, so the but it's gonna be jumping. But that's how it's 973 01:08:44.600 --> 01:08:46.560 true. Test. Hey, these world wars man, it's gonna be testing 974 01:08:46.640 --> 01:08:49.680 the character of our men. And we got to come with it.

They scheduled us for their homecoming. 978 01:09:02.840 --> 01:09:09.279 Yeah, right now, football, I absolutely hate they third down, 979 01:09:09.680 --> 01:09:12.920 they they're oh my gods, and you you know where that is they do 980 01:09:13.079 --> 01:09:19.439 that, you know, yes, Oh my gosh, that irks you. 981 01:09:19.560 --> 01:09:21.960 If that doesn't irk you when you step on that field, fellas, I 982 01:09:23.000 --> 01:09:26.760 don't know what else that's worth.
