Speaker 1: Let's go go.
Speaker 2: I'll start to you want to present some off the
bench with Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: Off the bench with Jacob Hester and T Bob aber
off the pitch. Now here's Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.
Speaker 1: What it's going on?
Speaker 4: Yo?
Speaker 3: TiVo, Jake, Landra and Tate hanging out this ward here
no TV at Thursday at a and a M, which
means only one thing.
Speaker 1: It is time to check in with.
Speaker 3: One of our favorites, a coach who once shamed me
and big dogged me at a charity softball game and
took me aside, uh after an aggressive handshake and admonished
me for for not talking enough about this team. And
she was right because look at this team. Of course
I'm talking about coach Bethterina. Coach, what's going on?
Speaker 1: How are you doing?
Speaker 4: I mean, you gotta fight for your people. Not all
of us are just on vacation all week like Chris
around like some of us like working trying to create
this great team that deserves to be talked about.
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I mean, I'd like to point out coach and
I were on the winning team together that year. That's true,
and I was not. Also, i'd like put out coaching.
Speaker 3: We led the show with saltball yesterday, Heavener nearly getting
the no hitter, beating the hell out of UL. We
love to see it. We also love to see conference
play opening up. But before we get into the actual
schedule its itself, I just want to highlight for those
that maybe don't know what the SEC is in saltball
this year and it's just every year, but again it
just continues to be more so. Right now, Jake, the
top twenty five, you have thirteen of the top twenty
five or SEC seed, So thirteen to sixty to the conference,
thirteen to.
Speaker 1: The twenty five of the country.
Speaker 3: The four six of the top seven and seven of
the top ten all reside in the SEC. Coach, do
you feel like your team is ready for this gauntlet?
Speaker 4: When you're saying that, I feel like the little emoji
with the mind blowing things.
Speaker 1: It's insane. It's insane.
Speaker 4: It really is, It really is. And you know, we
feel like we've been challenged. Right we played some really
good team but UCLA, Virginia Tech like really good teams.
But I know that we still have a really tough
road in front of.
Speaker 1: Us without question, right, coach, I mean, you only have
the one loss on the season. And the thing that
I want to talk about is after you do have
a loss out West and a game in which you
almost you know, come back and at the very end
you have a chance and fall just sure, But after
that you've won nine games in a row. And so
not allowing that loss to turn into two or not
allow it to really change your team's play, because after that,
you look at all the five five inning games, you
had a six inning game. I mean it's just not winning.
I mean it's total domination. You're ending these games quickly.
Speaker 4: Yeah, everybody keeps telling me that lossless for good. I'm
not sure any loss. But like last year's team not
only had to go into the speaks of like TUSS
conference play, but there were also going into it defending
this undefeated street, right, so it was like so much
on their plate, Like this team just gets to go
play Kentucky this weekend, go play SEC play. They don't
have anything else hanging over their head. But this team
really isn't that team anyway. They're just out to prove
people that they're good and go play LSU softball, and.
Speaker 3: So coming up this week and as you said, of
course a top twenty five team in Kentucky, which actually
did I miss it? Whatever, I'll redo my math later,
but Kentucky coming to ring number twenty three. Of course,
LSU fourth in the country. Guys again, It starts Friday,
six pm Saturday, five pm Sunday at one. If you
have been out the Tiger Park or the Berm, it
is one of the best vibes in all of Baton Rouge.
It's so much fun, so entertaining. If you got a
little kids, you go to the Burmi, you let the
kids run around. Get out there this week and pack
it out for ranked and Ranke battle coach. I know
you are a film obsessive. Uh what what what does
Kentucky do?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 3: What are you all on the lookout for this weekend?
Speaker 4: Well, Kentucky does a lot of things. Well, they're really
well coached. They have a brilliant coach, a really good
coach at strategy, so they'll be well prepared. And they're
swinging different this year. They're swinging really big. They've provided
a lot of power offense, a ton of home runs
last weekend against Missouri. Although we can hit a home
run ourselves. I was gonna say, and Tory Edwards hit
the home run out there, don't try to catch it.
It was eighty four miles an hour last week. Don't
try to catch it to knock it down.
Speaker 3: Geez, It's actually I had I had a buddy texting
me about that very thing, saying that Tory Edwards hit
snoops and well, yeah, the evidence is there.
Speaker 1: How about how about Dana could coffee?
Speaker 3: That one of my favorite stories from the season, of
course last year, brutal loss when she goes down and
remember at the time her telling you, look, this is
not how my story is going to end. And now
here she sits, She's already taken home two sec Player
of the Week accolades in this very early season, leads
a team thirty five hits, twenty seven runs, twenty seven walks.
She's number two for her career in on base percentage
in the school's history, number three and bad you after
your career bad average of three seventy nine. How fulfilling
is it for you as a coach to see Coffee
comeback from injury in this form?
Speaker 4: I can't say enough about her. I mean, even before
on this happens. She's been just a fan favorite, a
staff favorite. She's like the kid that just is on
the stand loot that loves to play the game. It's
incredible what she's doing. And I was going to say, like,
can you believe a leadoff hitter has twenty seven walks? No,
that's hit her, they can run has twenty seven walks.
Like what she's capable of doing at the plate, the
way she controls the strike zone, the way she can
hit all parts of the zone, elite, absolutely elite in
her own category.
Speaker 3: Here's a fun fact I just looked up while trying
to look up home run stats.
Speaker 1: Dana coud Coffee.
Speaker 3: Second in the nation in batting average right now, hitting
five sixty one. Out of all the thousands of players
in the nation right now, Dana coad Coffee's second. It's
a good schedule too, that's crazy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and just so humble about it too, Like just
working and humble and like, you know, trying to like
deal with the mentality of being great instead of just
walking around being like I'm great. She's like trying to
like wrap her head around the back like wow, I'm
really doing this, you know. Just so fun to watch
play and so fun to see your succeed.
Speaker 1: Coach, going back to you being kind of a film
junkie's one of the best things. You know that we
love talking with you about so many common opponents with Kentucky,
Virginia Tech, UCLA, Southern miss Notre Dame, all these teams
that y'all have played as well, Like what can you
take from watching them play teams that you prepared to
get ready for?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean one cool thing is like I usually
watch the hitters for the other team, right because I
call the pitches, but I know a lot about their
pitching staff because I have watched them face all these
teams in this So I've been able to participate in
some of the chats with our offensive people, with Bryce
and Sandra and Dax a little more because I've seen
them throw and how they've attacked people. One interesting thing
about them, they have a transfer from Oregon State. She's
like a change up kid and she gets in every
single game. They bring her in relief in every game
in the biggest moment, We're going to face the change
up this weekend, so we'll need to be prepared for that.
Speaker 3: Coach, Best of luck this weekend. An incredible start to
the season. Conference play begins now. Cannot wait to get
out to the Burm again, guys, six pm Friday night,
five pm Saturday night. A beautiful Sunday one pm game
coming up. So get in, lock in, and best of
luck this week and coach.
Speaker 4: Thanks for the support you guys appreciate it. Thanks for
coming off vacation to come out.
Speaker 3: Yeah hell yeah dude. By the way here so just
some more stats for you. LSU currently second in the
nation in terms of team ERA Tennessee's one Tennessee's a
zero point eight nine team ERA ls Who's a one
point five nine Florida's three at one sixty five batting average.
LSU fifth in the nation, hitting three eighty four as
a team. Again, this team is special. They've got a
great mixture of veteran stars freshman phenoms.
Speaker 1: Go check him out.
Speaker 3: What about you tube back there, any any burm y'all
working in any of the softball games this speaking any
Burm action.
Speaker 5: I worked the one on Tuesday night. Look, this team
can hit. And you were talking about what Dannaka coffee
means to this team. If you remember last year, LSU
was undefeated, they were top five in the country. They
lost Danna Ka Coffee, and they struggled after that because
they couldn't find a replacement at third base. Like she
means everything to this team. She's been on the team
for five years. She's your leadoff hitter, she's your third baseman.
If she can continue playing like she is, this team
that hits one through nine in the lineup, and you
have better pitching with Heavener to go along with Sydney Burson,
they're playing excellent.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I know I keep talking about Burson too, but excuse
may keep talking about Heavener, but Sidney burs on top
fifteen in the country right now, one oh six, cra Okay,
still awesome. Just you know, it's the new shiny thing
that's Here's sorry, Jake, I wanted to give Burzon some
love there.
Speaker 1: No, you're good. I feel like you're about to say
something I was. But it's kind of the same thing. Okay. Yeah,
but you have multiple multiple arms that you feel incredibly
confident about, and I mean to say, makes a good
point about third base, and you stay healthy. It's a
team that can do everything that we've talked about in
getting to Oklahoma City. And yeah, it's gonna be tough
because Oklahoma, Texas, Florida. Right, you're fourth in the country
and the three teams ahead of you are SEC teams.
It's like incredible what Oklahoma continues to do. They're still
undefeated on this season. But you are as good as
those teams because now you have multiple arms, gonna give
teams a different look. You've got your third basement back,
you've got your lead off hit or back. And so
this is a team that is going to, in my opinion,
get to where they want to get to, which is
Oklahoma City. And I know they've fallen short the last
couple of years, but if they stay healthy, this DNA
and this makeup, this team's a little bit different.
Speaker 3: Let's go, baby, Let's go get out to the burm
sport this team.
Speaker 1: It's a great time, all right when we get back.
Speaker 3: Does LSU have the fastest player in the country on
their football team. Plus we've got some Brian Kelly sound

Speaker 2: Back from the break where the sports talk gets real
kind of off the bench and with Hester and T.
Speaker 1: Bob my man Neo said, change my answering machine. By
that true? When is.
Speaker 3: The last time you've listened to a voicemail?
Speaker 6: Yesterday?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 5: Two days ago?
Speaker 6: Someone's left me a voicemail yesterday?
Speaker 1: Oh you wait? Do you listen to every voicemail?
Speaker 7: I wouldn't listen to every single one. No, but I
got one yesterday that Spain.
Speaker 1: I have not listened to a voicemail in decades.
Speaker 6: When the last time you left a voicemail decades? Really?
Speaker 3: You know who loves to leave a voicemail?
Speaker 1: The Cannon.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I leave a voice. If someone doesn't answer, hey
call me back.
Speaker 1: Actually be like, hey, call me back. No, No, well
you're not. I canna see that either.
Speaker 5: Extra See so I got a spam called during the
show two days ago, and I was like, oh, let
me listen to it. They left me a voicemail. It
was just static. I don't think I've ever left a
voicemail like calling someone, though.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I had some of my friends. I
almost hope that they don't answer because I'm going to
leave them voicemail.
Speaker 3: I have seven hundred and sixty three voicemails. The last,
the farthest one act I can find is from Lee
Carney December or February twelve, twenty twenty old pandemic voicemails
whenever that's about No. The cannon loves to leave a
long voicemail, though, where he explains everything he wants to
talk to me about and I never listened, and I
call him back, and invariably he always starts conversation with
did you listen to my voicemail? And every time I
say no, and then so he just has to repeat
everything every single time.
Speaker 6: That's crazy. I don't know.
Speaker 7: If I call someone and they don't answer, I leave
them a voice rail.
Speaker 3: That's what I thought voicemails were just I thought we
were all out on voicemails.
Speaker 5: I don't use them.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Like I thought we all got sick of the call
me back voice. But it's a pointless thing to do.
It's a waste of time.
Speaker 5: How I agree, Because if I get a misscall, I'm
going to call you back here Like.
Speaker 3: You're not adding anything saying call me back.
Speaker 6: Well, you're adding like a sense of urgency, yeah, a.
Speaker 1: Text, because there's some people waste time. It's not urgent
that you get back to me. I just calling you
about that thing. We talked about Hey, whenever your free
bout listen.
Speaker 3: It's like, good, I'm happy for You're sad for you.
I ain't trying to listen all that why you're talking
so much.
Speaker 1: Living? Hang up.
Speaker 6: That sending the text would take more time than leaving
the voicemail.
Speaker 3: Uh no, no, no, but not as much time to check.
Checking the voicemail, which you got, used to be really hard.
Remember you had to like did you have to call
a number back in the day.
Speaker 1: You call a number to get your voicemail?
Speaker 3: Uh no, So like, okay, maybe longer to send because
you're already on the phones. You're right, sayin't calling back.
It's gonna be quicker, but it's way easier for the
receiver to get a text.
Speaker 1: Then I I once received a scholarship offer on a
voice answering machine from Louisiana Tech. The coach just said
his name and said, we want to offer you a
full ride scholarship and hung up the phone. And that
was it. That was the message, we want to offer
you full ride scholarship. Click that I didn't call Louisiana.
It's not very strong. It's like when I was like,
did you'all did y'all even try.
Speaker 3: Billy Gonzales tried hopping in at the very end of
my recruiting. He's at Florida, and he tried being like, oh,
I've been called the wrong number for months, Like, bro,
you have not you had a spot open up? Yeah,
get out of here, dude, you like, get out of here.
I had the wrong number for months.
Speaker 1: Just keep calling it, you know, they never just keep
calling it. Yeah, but at least come up with a better.
Speaker 5: Gas Like yeah, you know, you know, to mom, you're
a hard man to find.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, mean, we're trying to get you for months.
Speaker 3: I literally do interviews with rivals every single day, like it's.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was crazy. I can't imagine what it's like
if Louisiantech only knew. I mean, I don't know if
they had have said, hey, you can play running back,
and if I wouldn't have got the l s U
offer in the eleventh hour. My father in law played
at LOCY and Tech. My mom went to Tech. They
had a chance, I mean.
Speaker 3: Was in C double A. They had like a bit
of a pipeline.
Speaker 1: They were the only mid major that I would have
listened to, yes, and they blew it. They blew it hm,
and they got that hard hand symbol thing. I can't
go dogs. I struggle with it, man, I mean that's
pretty good one.
Speaker 3: There's a big one. That's a big bulldog. I'm like,
I don't want to do mine anymore.
Speaker 1: That's a big bulldog. You look like you're struggling with.
Speaker 7: The toss up to she wants to her hands.
Speaker 1: You've got a curl, looks making horns and then curl.
Speaker 3: But then you gotta like outside of the.
Speaker 1: There, throw them dogs up, shout out to a lot
of great family members played football there. Throw them dogs up.
And then a bunch of people just stick their bare
feet in the air. My dogs. I don't love it.
I hate it, actually I hate it. Yeah, that's one
thing you better make.
Speaker 3: Sure some of the first time in my life. The
other day, thinking about a pedicured foot, start wash some
of the attraction.
Speaker 1: Yes, just wash your feet. No feet. I don't care, Yeah,
I don't. I don't really care. Would you be the
dumb and dumber scene if you went to try to
get your feet worked on? Right now? What happened to that?
I've seen your heel.
Speaker 3: My heel's actually been way better last couple of years.
I haven't had a cracked heel, And is it because
of the hokus?
Speaker 1: No, no, no, because no, I don't know exactly what
it would be. To be fair, I don't know. It's
just been way better.
Speaker 5: The bi weekly petties.
Speaker 1: You did. Used to wear slides a lot when we
first started doing the show together.
Speaker 3: I just I don't know, dogs out, it just stopped.
It just stopped cracking for some reason. Uh, yeah, that's
the nasty. No, I got the okay, let's just get
real nasty. Ah my big toes. I guess it's just.
Speaker 1: Having you get old. Used to freak me out. Looking
at my dad's, grandpa's toes back, it's got the toe.
Yeah you know I'm no because I'm no, no, no,
nobody else.
Speaker 3: I think it's ta bin. I think it's tala bit.
Speaker 1: I told you. Then the feet are getting.
Speaker 3: What color your toenails come out when you go swimming
to the I mean I had a well, I mean
if if it's a fungal issue, doesn't matter, if it's.
Speaker 6: Already yeah, can't you fix that?
Speaker 3: What if I could trip on my own fun guy
from my from my toes? What do you think I
think you can't fix it.
Speaker 1: I think you can. That's good.
Speaker 3: I think you can fix it because have y'all y'all
because I don't care.
Speaker 1: You don't care that you got growing na.
Speaker 5: It's the tea ball. To t Bump's point, it is
way worse for other people than it is for him.
Speaker 1: So who's who's looking at my dogs? Nobody? You? You, sir?
What about like? Uh? What about? Like how I like
Alandra and I typically get judged on this show for
being clean.
Speaker 7: Right, three toilet seats and they're like, you're not gonna
raw dog a toilet seats?
Speaker 6: I know, why would I do that?
Speaker 3: Because you're because like dude, human beings have been doing
it for thousands of years and this is Roman times
you both pop into the same trough, right next to
each other and just use the same sponge to wipe.
Speaker 6: That's like, we're advanced, so we're gonna we're not in.
Speaker 1: A sponge. What did you eat today?
Speaker 5: COVID when they had the toilet paper, hate all of
it because you got a kind of you got a
kind of conserve costco rush.
Speaker 1: I didn't have a shortage. I didn't have a shortage.
I stocked up no body, and I mean nobody took
advantage of Mathern's on campus during COVID all the students
were back home.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they weren't there.
Speaker 1: Nobody went there. I would go shop there during COVID
and have no issues finding anything. Really, Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 3: Wait, what about have y' all not seen the toe
fungus cleaning commercials on?
Speaker 1: Like seen on TV and they've been all over.
Speaker 7: The place, but they're like little green things on the
like little green creatures, some.
Speaker 3: Sort of no, no, no, there's some sort of no,
there's some sort of like wash that. What have I
been watching lately that I keep seeing it on?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: It's it's it's all over, it's got a lot of money.
Speaker 1: I asked a question, have y'all ever raw dogg to
porta potty?
Speaker 6: Absolutely? I don't even use port I was literally hold
it so long. I do not use a porter.
Speaker 5: It's a quick pee, and AL got the yeah, that's it.
That's that is.
Speaker 3: It's an awful feeling. It's an awful feeling. I don't
want to do it. Avoid it at all costs. Sometimes
it cannot be helped.
Speaker 5: You know, I knew he was gonna say I mean,
I a pread you. Most people have somebody to your
point sometimes.
Speaker 3: I mean, I've been to the Indymian Ball. I've seen
the women's bathroom light outside the porta potties. They aren't
all just hovering. They aren't all hovered.
Speaker 1: I mean it could be laying a lot of TP.
You gotta do.
Speaker 3: That's not what you need to be worded about the
porta potty. You gotta watch out for Sidon's kiss because
that ain't no clean water.
Speaker 1: A little little, a little, a little touch, but Sidon's
don't want that. You don't want that really ever, but
certainly not. I don't know. Go home, alright, guys, I
know I'm at this music festival. I got very fun,
but I'm out. I gotta go home.
Speaker 3: I mean, granted, it's probably harder for a female to
to to to uh.
Speaker 1: Suffer the feel of Poseidon's grace.
Speaker 7: I literally went to jazz Fest last year and I
did not use the bathroom the entire time I.
Speaker 6: Was at jazz Fest.
Speaker 5: That's wild issues there for three days too.
Speaker 7: As soon as I left, though, we went to go
eat straight to the bathroom.
Speaker 3: I know, man, I I gotta I mean, I've been
I've been wondering, am I getting old because I've been
peeing so much, Like it's crazy, man, I'm.
Speaker 7: Used to holding it because I like back here or
baseball game being.
Speaker 1: Like eighteen times a day. Oh that's like calling games
this year. Yeah, it's like you don't have time to
go U you're in.
Speaker 5: Not at all.
Speaker 3: Just get yourself a little gatorade bottle, a little pea bottle.
Speaker 6: That's crazy, dude.
Speaker 5: It where we do where we do the games at
l s U. The bathroom all the way on the
other side of the quarter minute walk away.
Speaker 1: I should do podcasts. And then I hated it.
Speaker 6: It's a long walk.
Speaker 1: Hated it.
Speaker 5: I was sitting there last year doing a game and
I looked over and I'm like, if I peeding that
chop back, what anybody actually know because.
Speaker 1: Nobody was using it and they can, you know, they
can get anything. I thought.
Speaker 5: I thought about it, but I was like, yeah, I'll
just wait.
Speaker 3: Reads there was an old pipe that you could pee into.
His secret pipe in the back. Secret you knew where
it went, uh, and you would you would sign the
wall next to it. So if the secret pea pipe
is still there, let me know.
Speaker 1: I'd love to go see it.
Speaker 6: Taylor got there the other day.
Speaker 7: I was doing a baseball game and I was like,
can you sit here for a second please. As soon
as he walked in, I was like, please, I need
you to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 5: The dude, it's a two minute walk one way.
Speaker 6: Baseball games are tricky.
Speaker 1: You got to get a gator baseball games, aren't you
because you don't know?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, better get that prostrate check.
Speaker 1: I know, I know gatory bottle has been used by
you know.
Speaker 3: I did get a colonoscopy though a few years ago.
Does that mean I'm still good? They told me I
didn't have to get another one for a decade.
Speaker 6: I think when you're like in your force.
Speaker 3: Different from a prostate exam though, yes, okay, so I
still need to get my prostage.
Speaker 6: Yes, it's different, Yeah.
Speaker 5: To anoscopy they scope the thought I thought, I didn't

Speaker 6: Chaos, like she said on.
Speaker 3: The secret pee pipe confirmed what just got a text?
I don't know if it's still there, but somebody's just
letting me know that I'm not making this up. But
I already knew I wasn't making up. I mean, I'm
feeding their ton.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Back in college, it was.
Speaker 3: Behind the building, behind the building. It was some like
it's my memory of a very hazy was in some
sort of back room.
Speaker 5: Oh so this was inside inside Okay, ease, I thought
you were saying behind the building. I'm like, why don't
you just pee behind the building.
Speaker 7: Inside inside like like but you're trying to go like anything.
Speaker 1: No, it's not.
Speaker 3: It's almost like you would be like behind the dry wall,
like like you're like in between, like, yeah, it feels
like that.
Speaker 1: That's what it feels like.
Speaker 5: It's kind of seems like it was Possi and cold,
nothing in common.
Speaker 1: We'll shoot now it really got to go get my
cold and checked. No, you've already gotten that shock you appreciated.
Now you got me stressing out. Oh my god, Oh
my god. I gotta text somebody right now. I gotta
figure this out.
Speaker 3: Oh you never mind, have got confirmation the pipe still there,
but I can't about that anymore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, do you have it in your family?
Speaker 3: Grandpa had colon cancer, but yeah, but he was I
got my cold chet and he was older and he
was eting cake every day.
Speaker 1: Yes, he was living.
Speaker 5: Life take every day, every single day.
Speaker 1: And he lived a great long life too. I mean, yeah,
he got it when he was older than me. Oh

Speaker 2: Welcome to the seventh ranked morning sports show in America.
Off the bench and with Hester and T Bob?
Speaker 1: What was handing, y'all? I wanna let Tyres breathe a
little bit.
Speaker 3: It was so funny the other day I got home
and this was blasting out of the bathroom.
Speaker 1: I don't understand it.
Speaker 3: Such a plumbing van in the driveway.
Speaker 1: Like Tyrese, you know, he's in Fast and Furious twenty seven,
but he can sing too, turn it up. I mean,
this man did work for your boy and high school
plumbing mixed CDs. You good.
Speaker 3: I couldn't get until two weeks, and I have two
weeks of thinking I have cancer. Great, really looking forward
to that awesome fun talk about it. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 5: Do you get to pick your your doctor though, Schrodinger's cancer.
Speaker 1: It's my boy. Shout out doctor Drew.
Speaker 6: Your boy is gonna be putting his fingers up your butt.
Speaker 1: Yeah that great, So William Anthony, he's got your hand side.
You'll be okay. I mean, look, I've done.
Speaker 3: Some positories and stuff before. I'm not like, I'm not
opposed to it. I don't think it's gonna hurt. I'm
I think kind of think it's probably gonna feel good.
Speaker 5: He prepped for this for years. Actually he's built for it.
Speaker 3: William Anthony, fingers as you want, as long as I
get a good checkup, please, Anthony says, would you rather
your doctor your proctologists have girthy.
Speaker 5: Or long fingers or long fingers that's yeah.
Speaker 3: Your long, but if you have both, yeah, it would
have to be because just because they're long, you don't
have to stick the whole finger and I'm guessing all.
Speaker 5: Right, but you know you don't know how far you
can spread.
Speaker 3: Jake is my doctor. I'd be walking funny for a month, struggling.
Speaker 1: Whatever stress. Brian Kelly, Sound.
Speaker 3: Kyle Williams.
Speaker 1: Nobody, I mean, nobody will transition.
Speaker 6: That's why we're the seventh morning. Hey, dude was not
prepped out. He was all right. Brian Kelly, Sound, do
you want me to play a random one?
Speaker 1: No? No, I know what I want. Williams will Yeah.
Speaker 3: But if you play the roulette reel, then you look
at you run the risk of like any transfers surprise
you or.
Speaker 1: Josh Thompson brings transfer.
Speaker 8: There isn't a player right now that has disappointed. I
think we look at it more from that perspective that
we're like, wow, that's that's not what we were looking
for there. Each one of them, you know, has shown
us something that says they can contribute and help our
football team in the manner some more than others. Some
carry more leadership skills than others, Some carry more of
a wow factor than others. But all of them have
a presence pretty much in our two deep. And that's
saying a lot.
Speaker 3: The last part is actually somewhat interesting. But that answer,
and we haven't listened to sound yet. I forgot to
listen to the press conference. That answer was pretty much
what you thought was gonna be.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, here's another one. This is on Destiny.
Speaker 8: Now he feels a lot more comfortable making the move
because he knows players, he's played against him, and he's
had him on his his team. So the transition for
Destin is been really seamless, and it's made it easy
for him. You know, he's been somebody that you know,
maybe didn't get as much recognition early on. He's had
a really good offseason and has done a really nice
job for so I think that that transition has made
it easier for him to kind of blend in right away.
Speaker 3: I don't I honestly didn't know who Destin Hill was.
Taylor had to tell me during the clip we're number two,
I believe, so, Yes, Okay, here's Kyle originally officially elsho's
deepensive blind coach, Kyle Williams. I think the practice of
the field for the first time Brian Kelly, according to
Hunt Palmer, had a very good write up on practicing
Louisiana Sports on Net Kelly was basically doing the old
principal shadow on Kyle his first practice for about ten
to fifteen minutes, which kind of funny you think about,
But this is Kelly two on just Kyle Williams in general.
Speaker 8: He'll be, as you know, coaching our interior defensive line.
I think it's well chronicled his his playing career here
at LSU. And then you know, six time pro bowler,
you know, thirteen years in the NFL certainly brings you know,
an impressive resume to the position and just quality, individual,
high character, and somebody that really is who you want
recruiting student athletes here to LSU. So really excited about
his addition to our staff.
Speaker 3: And now went Kelly three on what sands out about
Williams coaching stuff.
Speaker 8: I think the things that stand out immediately for me
is his attention to, you know, the finer points of
playing the position. Again, somebody that played the position and
recently played the position and clearly understands, you know, the
nuances of the position and can articulate and communicate that
effectively to those that need to go play it now
for LSU. I think that that connection is very apparent
to me. I got a chance to, you know, spend
a little time out there today, probably about ten to fifteen,
and it's just listening to him and the way he
connects with the players. I know he's going to make
a great impact for us.
Speaker 1: I could just tell you I'm a giant fan of
Kyle Williams, being his teammate, watching him from Afar before
I got here, and then playing alongside him, and then
like seeing what he did in the NFL. And look,
I've played against Kyle for a long time as well,
Like he was at Rustin when I was at evangel
We were in the same district, we played against them,
And this is somebody that I've got more respect for,
maybe than anybody I ever played with. Wow, I mean,
he is like the ultimate pro, always has been, really
And we were doing something I don't remember when it
was a couple of months ago and losing on sports
dot Net, whereas like who was the best player that
Nick Saban coached, you know, at his different spots Michigan State,
will Issue in Alabama, and I said, Kyle Williams for LSU,
And I know a lot of people went Whitworth and
you know, Witt was a great player. I played against
him in high school as well. For my money, it's
Kyle Williams. That was a guy that always was doing
it in the shadows, right, Nobody really wanted to ever
give Kyle credit that he deserved. And finally, like in Buffalo,
like they couldn't deny it anymore. It's like, Okay, this
guy's one of the best. Because, like you said the
other day, walking down the street, he didn't looked like
he was, you know, an all Pro defensive tackle, like
I understand that, but he was a dog yeah, and
he had a mentality that was unlike anybody else. And
also he was great about being vocal about it and
not in a cheesy way, not in a way where
it's like, oh man, that guy's up there again, because
that happens to and you know I'm talking about Yeah, yeah,
there's a guy that when he gets up there after
about the second or third time, you're like, dude, just
go sit down. Yeah, he wasn't that. Like, he was
a guy that when he spoke, everybody listened. And that
was at LSU, that was for the Buffalo Bills, and
he knows his stuff, Like I'm not worried about that. Sure,
Like he's this is new, this is a new level
for him, and so like recruiting and all those different things.
Sure he's got to get up to speed on all
of that, but as far as the technique and the
motivation and all the defensive line stuff, I'm not worried
about that at all.
Speaker 3: I agree, I agree wholeheartedly, and I'm really to watching
him in this role. I also, like, I know I
wouldn't even play the sound, but I also like Kelly
was kind of acting. Asked about stability at the position,
which this is crazy to about Kelly's hired and I'm
guessing this is including edge as well, but Kelly's hired
sixty line coaches in three years, so like they need
some continuity there. And he said that Williams was also
looking for some stability and continuity and kind of place
to put down roots a little bit. And we know
Kelly's not going anywhere, so if he wants to be here,
like Kyle, Williams ain't going anywhere either, so maybe you
can finally get uh you stop the turnover at that
at that position.
Speaker 1: Specifically, Like I haven't had a chance to catch up
with Kyle yet since he you know, he's been back
at La Shoo wanted to be reach out. All right,
we'll see, I'll reach out to him right now. But
like he moved up to Rust and because this is where
he's from and he was very happy there and he
was coaching football there and him and his family love
Rust and it was going to take, I think you
opportunity for him to leave that. Now, his wife's from
Baton Rouge and so obviously they have you know, a
ton of ties here being LSU students and player and
you know, but his wife's from here as well, and
so like he has strong ties here, but it was
still going to take something very special for him to
leave RUSS and so, like, I think this is like
the one spot he would do that for now. I
don't know what his aspirations are. I don't I don't
think it's to be a coach in the NFL. I
think it's just it's a coach and he wanted to
coach at the place where he was a star.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Bills hire him next year, who knows? No,
I mean, look, I agree with you. I think he
obviously got bit by the coaching bug. But it would
have taken a lot because he's coaching just for pure passion.
But then you know Lsu comes calling. You're an old
decade long NFL VET, Like you think about Game Day
and Tiger State. You're starting to feel the old clarion
call of the adrenaline rush in the high stakes. You're
thinking about playing Clemson in Death Valley to open up
a season, and you can't ignore it. Like a siren,
you you head straight towards it. So I'm very excited
to watch Kyle Williams in that in that spot, I
feel like my butt's hurting. I gotta be honest. Uh yeah,
it's okay, It's gonna be all.
Speaker 1: Good, all right.
Speaker 3: Uh, when we get back, we can talk about the
fast thing that we never actually got to, uh, the Zelship,
the fast player in the entire country. Keep you locked
here on O TV, Off the bench.
Speaker 2: Welcome back to off the bench where the takes are
hot and the sports talk is questionable.

Speaker 3: So two four seven released an article three sixty five
about the no Sorry, the fastest players in all of
college football for twenty twenty five, number twelve on the list.
Ryan Wingo from Texas, number eleven. Nate Fraser, the running
back out of Georgia, Demanti Jackson, Alabama's cornerback, Roderick Pleasant,
cornerback out of Oregon.
Speaker 1: Yet Malachi Coleman, Minnesota wide receiver. Don't see a lot
of speed in Minnesota. You love Minnesota I.
Speaker 3: Love their unies. Ryan Williams, of course from Bama. Number
seven on this list. Dasmond James don't know him. Oh
he's on Arkansas last year. Now at Cal he's number six.
Jordan Anthony had an Arkansas number five. Zachariah Branch overrated
but fast.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Number four. Oh my gosh, I had to
have that conversation with one thousand people this year.
Speaker 3: Thanks and well it's coming again because everybody thinks he's
gonna be good now again now Georgia, I know number
four in excuse so that was number four. Zachari Brands,
number three and Edwards out of Kansas state. Number two,
Nick Harbor, the physical freak out of South Carolina is
and then number one. Barrion Brown, the LSU transfer receiver
from Kentucky who at Louisville two years ago hit twenty
two point six miles per hour during a kick return
for a touchdown, which is faster than any NFL player
recorded in the entirety of the twenty twenty three season.
Speaker 1: We called that in the locker room. Fast fast, fast fast.
If you get two of them, it's real. It might
as well be Ramadan. That's how fast this man is
this is so, this is somebody that when you look
at what el she was missing last year, what was it?
It was the one guy that could go take the
top off the defense and really stretch the defense and
give you options. And that guy was going to be
Chris Hilton. Chris Hilton battled injuries all year. When he
came back, obviously hadn't played football in a while. I
was a little bit rusty. Now in the bowl game,
you saw it all kind of come together everything we
saw in August. But now this gives you on that
if Chris Hilton for some reason has to miss a
game two games, you don't want that to happen. But
now you have a player that can go out there
and be in the same mold. And also you know
from day one he is going to be an elite
kick returner. And you've got multiple elite kick returners on
this team. Now true, right, we saw that in the
ball game. We saw with Aaron Anderson in the regular
season you had multiple kickoff returns for a touchdown. Well,
he has five in his career at Kentucky CC record.
I mean, you have got some real speed, really really
good players that kind of fit that mold ar three
decks off the bench,
