Speaker 4: We got Odion Menswear's very own brighton day on the line, Brydon,
how's your bracket feeling.
Speaker 1: It's okay, it's no, it's honestly doing fine. I'd have
to look exactly where I'm at ranking wise, but I did.
I did pick a couple of the I picked an
upset that didn't happen, and then there was the other
upset that did happen that I didn't pick, so I'm
trying to remember which ones they are right now, stop
my head. But so not great, so.
Speaker 4: Far, not great, so far, he says, But I wonder
how many, how many perfect brackets still remain out there? Anyway,
Brandon day, though, let's talk about Camp Klooney twenty twenty six.
We're getting a better feel of what is happening in
Camp Colonne now that we're in week two, we have
a scrimmage.
Speaker 3: Under our belt.
Speaker 4: Let me ask you this, your opinion on the matter,
good thing, bad thing, Give me a hot take if
you will. They haven't really done any live contact, not
a whole lot of tackling, no scrimmage. A Rod said,
look like, you know, we just didn't do much live tackling.
It's eleven on eleven, yes, but it's a lot of
it's a lot of you know, you know, I would say,
just kind of shell work, and your your your your
thud periods et cetera.
Speaker 3: Your your thoughts on that? Is that a good thing?
Hot take? Not a take.
Speaker 1: I think it's a good thing in spring. I think
in fall they'll have to do some tackling, just to
make sure, you know, tackling, shirt up and ready for
the actual games and everything, because I think Klanie talks
about like I don't know how to teach football without
actually playing football. But I do think in spring it's
not a good time to to you know, you don't
need to be tackling right this second to be able
to really see what guys have and then you can
do that in a little bit. Just I don't think
you do a ton of in fall either, I think
just because of injury issues, but at least a little
more involved. But I think spring is a perfect time
to just go thud.
Speaker 4: So going thud, that's what they're doing right now in
spring ball. And what storylines have stood out to you
so far from camp Kalanie, anything that stood out to
you over the last week.
Speaker 1: I think Legend glask emerging has been really fun for
me just to kind of hear that. I he was
one that I felt like was gonna was gonna be
that guy we you know, have some more our first
interviews of spring, well we talked about that, and he
was a guy that I was intrigued to see if
he could do it. But I just keep hearing it
name from all kinds of different people, and so I'm
excited about with that with the receiver room just not
being proven in then Kyro Casper there so tally the
receiver room. And then also I feel like jaredy Kalama
yesterday they were talking about Kippop was talking about how
how he's impressed, and that's when I hadn't actually heard
anywhere besides that interview. So that was an intriguing development
to see if maybe he's going to get into that
safety rotation there.
Speaker 4: So, yeah, you got some young safeties in Jeron Kalama
and Ken and Poula trying to make a name for themselves,
trying to make some plays and and look, that's.
Speaker 3: A pretty good safety room.
Speaker 4: Raider de Mooney fought off sol Soadawala, Tommy Parasis. You
got a lot of young bucks coming up into the
ranks as well. So, uh, not a whole lot of
weakness on this BYU football team.
Speaker 3: I also thought it was interesting.
Speaker 4: Brax and Lindsey getting the call out with with Kelly Papinga,
that's a defensive end that's going to be fighting for
some pet with now Sidl Moypeo and dal Celia Kana
in that group. But he's getting a call up. That's
gonna be a ferocious competition with some highly talented individuals.
So it's it's been fun to kind of get to
know this team a little bit better, still a little
bit interesting. Who's gonna be protecting bear Bachmeyer? What does
that offensive line look like? It looks like Bruce Mitchell
is your starting center. I'm I'm putting money on Pockey
Feen out left tackle.
Speaker 3: Still trying to figure out left guard.
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's gonna be Kyle super Choke
right or I think yesterday I saw I've seen Trevin
Osler as well around kind of like bouncing around a
little bit at right tackle. I think it's Andrew Gentry.
The guard position is gonna be intriguing to me to
see who ends up on that interior line. Junior Ceo
was seen at right guard as well, and I wonder
where bat Mulatalo works into the mix as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you've got Junior, You've got Jiparchoke, like
you said, you've got something Macassini, and then you've also
got Ostler, So I think those four and then yeah,
you see what happens with Bot whether he's planning more
of that trying to get and get time with the
tackles or whether he comes inside. But yeah, I'm intrigued.
I think the line A Rod seems very positive about
it yesterday. Obvious he's probably not gonna come out and
say that he's not positive about it, but it did
give I've heard really good things about it, and I
think when we able to run the ball again, I think.
I know there's some rumors out there about a backup
running back that may not be fully healthy, but I
think in general and I love that that a Rod
to me, I think it was Ronnie's question actually was
that RB two like it was like pretty not. There
was no question asked there that that A Rod answered that,
and I think that's true. I think is underrated. I
think he was going to be a huge part of
the game plan last year, and obviously that didn't happen
because of his injury. But I still feel like that
running back room is just fine. I know there's lots
of people in Kugarnation and that are panicking over it,
but but I'm excited about it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the running back room is is going to be intriguing,
no doubt, But a Rod did go out of his
way and his media availability to say, we're gonna be
able to run the footballgain our offensive line is going
to be good.
Speaker 3: We're gonna be good again.
Speaker 4: And I trust a Rod like when he's talking about
this stuff, like, I don't know how often he like
over hypes, you know what I mean? Like, I don't
know how often he really gets into hyperbole and over
projects or inaccurately projects certain players.
Speaker 3: Would you agree with that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's fair. I think there's been times where,
like Miles Davis is the one that comes to mind,
he brought up Miles and almost every media availability and
then we never used them. But besides that, I can't
really think of any other time that he usually over
hyping guys. He's usually giving pretty normal He's not like
he's just not that type of guy that's going to
be super hype man. So I think that's that's fair.
And I think I think you're right overall when he's
looking at as of how we're gonna be in terms
running the ball, and I think he brought I can't
remember if he brought that up because of the question
or if it was one that he brought up on
his own. But either way, I do feel like the
run game is something that we can still get behind
obviously with Lja there, and then the line I think
will be just as good as but it's not better.
Speaker 4: So braydon tell us a little bit about Odeon Men's
where what deals you have going on for all of
the men out there looking upgrade their suit game, their
their men's attire, their missionary attire, their church attire.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we do all kinds of bulk deals, so
like if you're a missionary, we have packages for you.
We have just bulk deals on terms and if you're
just getting shirts or souths things like that. And we
also for the missionaries we do our free Missionary Gift,
which is a free shirt and a free pair of
socks just for having a mission call. And we talked
about this every time. It's something that right now there's
a ton of kids getting the mission calls. This is
a great time to come out and it's just as
a no risk ability for you to come shop. Come
see the stuff, go home, wash it, wear it, see
what think about it. That's really what it is. I'm
so confident in the product that you're gonna come in
You're gonna take it home, You're gonna wash it, wear it,
and you're gonna buy him from me because you love
the shirt so much. You love this sock so much.
Speaker 3: So they do great work.
Speaker 4: I love all of their fine twined Lenny is going
to check it out. You got multiple locations along the
Wassat front. Utilize that Criddle fifteen coupon code. Anything else
stand out to you about BYU's you know, uh camp Kalania.
One of the things I've been intrigued by is the
pit bull fast twitch, explosive nature even with a club
on his hand. Of Kate Uluave, that dude's the real deal.
He is the energizer Bunny he. I texted Brandon Ogletree
and I said, this kid kind of.
Speaker 3: Reminds me of you.
Speaker 4: He may be a little bit better than you, but
he kind of reminds me of Brandon Ogletree was a
fantastic football player for b what you once upon a time.
He's got a little kidou lave. He's got to got
like a Rob Morris feel for me as well. Rob
Morris the freight train.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 4: And Rob Morris was a high level draft pick, one
of the best linebackers to ever come through b YU.
Rob Morris, I think is my other player caught for him.
Speaker 1: That's an awesome comp with Olga Tree. Ogatrie was one
of my favorite linebackers and and if he could do it,
because that one of the things that I hopefully Brandon's
not listening, or if he is, he doesn't take offense
to this. Physically, he was never, you know, the most elite,
but his his mentality and his instincts, I felt like
we're always what made him so good. And if Kate
can have those same instincts but still have the ability
to speed. I don't think Kate's super tall. I can't
remember exactly where he's at, but he doesn't seem super tall.
I'm out there. But if he can have the speed
necessary but still have the instincts and mentality of Brandon Ogatrie,
I think that we're in for a treat.
Speaker 3: No doubt about it.
Speaker 4: Anybody else that you're you've that stood out to you
from the storylines before I ask you a couple of
basketball questions here, I.
Speaker 1: Think Roger Saliapaga is another one that I just keep getting,
you know, hearing about whether it's you know, other players
talking about it, whether it's coaches. I just feel like
him and Walker lions together to be such a weapon.
So I'm intrigued to see She's in a lot of
twelve percent standards.
Speaker 4: Are they going to meet that standard, that twelve personnel standard?
Are they going to reach the high Like I felt
like Carson Ryan was able to meet quota and maybe
even overachieve the expectation that was set on him when
he transferred to by you this last season. Do you
think Walker and Roger meet quota? If they do, you
think they meet the expectation in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 3: I think so.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think both of them are said, I
think you're can get Walker will be a little more
on the blocking side, but I think that both canna
get a ton of targets. I think you're actually the
one that brought it up, but I think Roger will.
Everyone's probably lined up out at wide out too, just
with his with his abilities, So I think they're definitely
gonna meet expectations. And I think the rest of the
room is also really good and we'll be able to
come in and spell them out. But I think with
those two, I think we'll get some twenty two personnel. Also,
I think we'll see not a ton of it because
obviously you don't want to take two many receivers. But
I think with both and LJ and then the both
those tight ends there, I think you you bring a
lot of possibilities into the mix where defenses have to
look at things.
Speaker 4: So, all right, I'm gonna ask you March madness question
because this is one of the things that I've been
in free by since AJ Debonsa committed and signed with
the bau Cougars, the expectation was final four. Let's be
honest with the roster that they had, with the resource
allocation that they distributed to the coaches and the players,
et cetera. Is there a path this year for b
A and AJ in which Billy Hoops surpasses the craziness that.
Speaker 3: Was jim or Mania once upon a time? If so,
what does that look like?
Speaker 1: I mean, my bracket says we're winning it all. So
you just you asked me that, man, that's.
Speaker 3: The only that's the only way.
Speaker 1: Then that's the answer that you needed. But but no,
I think this team, obviously it's good. There were the
expectation is harder to reach, is what we originally ploped
for at the beginning of the season because of injuries
and and things like that. But I think this team
showed that. I mean, they hung with Houston and there
was a good chance we could have won that game.
And Houston's going to be a contender. There's a very
good chance there in the finals, and so I think
I think the team can do it. Whether they're going
to do it is a question, but I really do
think the team has the potential if they can kind
of keep piecing it together and getting better like they
have over the last couple of weeks, I think we
could we can get you know, past that that sweet
six things the firsest we ever got right with Jim
Mer we never got. We didn't get tough lead eight, No,
so we did not. I think we can get to
lead eight. I don't think it's crazy to think that's
going to happen.
Speaker 3: Love it. Well. One last thing before we let you
go here.
Speaker 4: Is, uh, how far do you think uh this b
YU team realistically?
Speaker 3: I know you have them going all the way and.
Speaker 4: Realistically, where where's your like mindset set for this bou
men's basketball team in March madness?
Speaker 3: How far do you think they can go.
Speaker 1: I think sixteen. I think that's that's fair. I think
they'd beat Texas and I think the Beacunzaga and then
from there I think they'll that'll end up. I mean realistically,
if I had a gun to my head, I'd say
sweet sixteen and then they get out.
Speaker 3: So there you go. You heard it here.
Speaker 4: First Sugarnation breaking Day, last thing, Odeon Men'swear. Give me
one last pitch on why people should come in and
support Odeon Men's War.
Speaker 1: Because if you want to look good, feel good and
do good for all the different events you have in
your life, that it is the place and it will
make you if you don't try our the Elevate suit
on if you don't want to buy it. It's the
most incredibly comfortable suit that still looks incredible. So I
guess I'm telling you not to come in if you
don't want to buy a suit.
Speaker 3: Really love it, bro well, appreciate you. Check it out.
Speaker 4: Cougarnation Criddle fifteen, Crittle fifteen Criddle fifteen to get fifteen
percent off your order online or and sore.
Speaker 3: Thanks so much, Bradon. We'll catch up with again soon.
Speaker 1: Thank you go cooogy, all.
Speaker 4: Right, let's go to break. We'll be back though. Let
me give you a little scoreboard update. In CAA tournament
March Madness, Vanderbilt just closed it out. They got the
dub over mcnee's McNee State did not but did not
get over the hub. I did pick in one of
my brackets. I picked McNeice to take on and beat.
Speaker 3: Vanderbilt.
Speaker 4: Was hoping for an SEC just kind of, you know,
just kind of a sweep get them out of the
NCAA tournament all together. They got ten bits they shouldn't have.
Speaker 3: It is what it is.
Speaker 4: Mcneicse fall short, seventy eight sixty eight. These are the
ones that have gone final. Duke seventy one sixty five
over cn in a one sixteen matchup high point eighty
three point eighty two gets the the bracket busted their
twelve to five matchup. They beat up on Wisconsin Louisville.
It's chocked there. They they beat up on South Florida
eighty three seventy nine, Nebraska seventy six forty seven, and
that four thirteen matchup, and then TCU got the win
over Ohio State. Two games are at half right now.
Michigan State and North Dakota State. That one's in hand.
Speaker 3: Michigan State looking to close that one out.
Speaker 4: They're up twenty, and then Arkansas over Hawaii fifty four
