But what is that food 33 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,040 consumption like here in the summer? 34 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, actually, breakfast is really busy during the summer because 35 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,359 a lot of times we make football so you know, 36 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,480 in order to give them time for the day to 37 00:01:53,519 --> 00:01:57,680 do other things, we might make breakfast mandatory so that 38 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,280 we know that they're getting their meal in and getting 39 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,319 energy up and getting nutrition in because you know, to 40 00:02:05,319 --> 00:02:08,360 to to some people, you know, when you get super 41 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,479 hot and super exhausted, they don't want to eat right, 42 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,159 and so we want to get the food into them 43 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:14,680 earlier and in the day. 44 00:02:14,719 --> 00:02:15,039 Speaker 7: And so. 45 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 6: Like right now we're probably seeing one hundred and seventy 46 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,159 five people for breakfast and that's that's that's like two 47 00:02:23,159 --> 00:02:25,639 thirds of what we normally see. And usually you know, 48 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,560 like summer can be slow. Yeah, you know, like in 49 00:02:29,599 --> 00:02:32,280 twenty twenty one, summer was kind of slow for us. 50 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:38,960 But it really depends on you know, postseason play for 51 00:02:39,039 --> 00:02:42,240 baseball depends on track and field. What they're doing there's 52 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,800 because they're still there. They were still you know, compeeding 53 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,599 not so long ago, and sometimes they have like postseason 54 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,919 competitions as well. Yeah, you know, so it I mean, 55 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,639 we're we're pretty busy. Lunch, you know, stays pretty much 56 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,759 the same throughout the year. Dinner will dive off a 57 00:02:59,759 --> 00:03:04,280 little bit just because you know, like once once stuff 58 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,719 gets done and taken care of lifting and everything else. 59 00:03:07,319 --> 00:03:10,280 I think athletes like to, you know, have a little 60 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,919 bit of time to themselves and that's fine. So breakfast 61 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,159 is pretty busy this time of year. 62 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 3: Hashtag munchies. 63 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,199 Speaker 4: I finally got an air fryer, wondered if there was 64 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,960 a way to do okra. I made pickles with my 65 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,960 first load from the garden, but I don't need six 66 00:03:27,039 --> 00:03:28,680 jars of pickle okra. 67 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,039 Speaker 6: Yeah, so they wanting to know how to fry it 68 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,400 in there or I think it's. 69 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I would assume. I mean it's Louisiana. 70 00:03:37,199 --> 00:03:40,439 I mean, Okra's going in a pot with something else. 71 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,240 But if we're going to eat just okra, that thing's 72 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:42,879 gonna be fried. 73 00:03:43,639 --> 00:03:46,599 Speaker 6: One thing you gotta make sure that you're doing when 74 00:03:46,599 --> 00:03:49,280 you're air frying anything. It's making sure that you're getting 75 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,560 the bread crumb or the flour, you know, saturated with 76 00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:55,680 oil and a deep fry. The difference is is that 77 00:03:55,719 --> 00:03:58,319 you're submerging it in oil, and so it's going to 78 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,639 get the saturation. But what's unhealthy about it is you're 79 00:04:02,719 --> 00:04:05,360 submerging it in the oil, and that oil starts replacing 80 00:04:05,479 --> 00:04:08,400 liquid and cooking into the texture or the skin or 81 00:04:08,919 --> 00:04:11,719 the you know, like if it's a fruit or not 82 00:04:11,759 --> 00:04:13,520 a fruit, but a vegetable or a big piece of 83 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:14,840 protein that actually will cook. 84 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 3: You can fry a fruit. 85 00:04:16,439 --> 00:04:21,519 Speaker 6: Tomatoes, yeah, bananas, So so I'm like, yeah, yeah, man, 86 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,639 I love fried green tomatoes and dashed I just came 87 00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:29,319 from my garden actually, man, yeah, yeah, so they are fry. 88 00:04:29,639 --> 00:04:31,240 I think a lot of people kind of fear away 89 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,639 from that saturation of the flour or the or the 90 00:04:33,639 --> 00:04:36,519 bread crumb on the outside, right, But in reality, if 91 00:04:36,519 --> 00:04:40,160 you wanted to brown up properly and not turn you know, 92 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,319 like kind of dry looking, and you really need to 93 00:04:44,319 --> 00:04:46,759 make sure that you're getting a good saturation of it. 94 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 3: On there, hashtag munchies. 95 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,639 Speaker 4: My wife wants to cook fried steak fingers, tonight, what 96 00:04:52,759 --> 00:04:55,759 is chefs recommended cut of steak for that dish? And 97 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,000 this way, this one to me is near and dear 98 00:04:58,079 --> 00:05:01,920 to my heart because my grandmother used to make steak 99 00:05:01,959 --> 00:05:05,000 fingers and my god, I mean just I don't I 100 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,439 don't even know what you used for the breading on there, 101 00:05:07,519 --> 00:05:09,560 but I would go through like seven or eight of 102 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:10,079 those things. 103 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 3: It is like a core childhood memory for me. 104 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, yeah, I think for me, what we 105 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,839 usually do for steak fingers is we'll take cube beef 106 00:05:19,959 --> 00:05:21,600 like the same thing that you did make out of 107 00:05:21,639 --> 00:05:24,920 a out out of a chicken fried steak, because it's 108 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,600 already been tender eyed. Because because you're deep frying it 109 00:05:28,639 --> 00:05:32,279 and it's a high intense heat, those muscle tissues tense 110 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,319 up really quickly and can be tough. And so you know, 111 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,199 if you're not using if you're not using chicken fried 112 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,040 steak and good quality chicken fried steak, I would say, 113 00:05:42,079 --> 00:05:44,079 you know, like a flank steak or a skirt steak 114 00:05:44,399 --> 00:05:47,160 sliced on a bias, so that you're cutting some of 115 00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:50,639 that breaking through some of that connective tissue. We've talked 116 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,519 about that before, like if you have a if you 117 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,279 have a tougher cut. When you slice it at an angle, 118 00:05:56,879 --> 00:05:59,879 you're reducing the amount of connective tissue that's actually holding 119 00:05:59,879 --> 00:06:02,560 on onto the protein that's directly above it, right, and 120 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:07,040 so it mouthfeel and uh and and texturally it loosens 121 00:06:07,079 --> 00:06:10,120 it up a bit. Yep, I would I would say 122 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,839 if you don't have either one of those, maybe at 123 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,480 chuck A chuck can be kind of tough, but you 124 00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:17,120 can tenderize that with a with a mallet or something 125 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,920 and then get a pretty good product out of it. 126 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,480 You know, if you go too soft with tenderloin, you're 127 00:06:21,519 --> 00:06:28,720 wasting your money on a tenderloin.

I have to be careful of what kind 191 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,960 of uh, what kind of direction I give to that 192 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,399 because every human body is a little bit different, right, 193 00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:15,559 So yeah, it depends on your activity. 194 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 4: What your activity like, I guess maybe, like you know, 195 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,200 like what would be healthy? I guess for anybody almost 196 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:22,519 Like you know what I'm saying, like what food do 197 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,320 you know? Like, no matter what, because you're that's a 198 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,919 great answer, because you're right. Yeah, Like I'm like when 199 00:09:26,919 --> 00:09:29,120 I'm eating healthy, like things work for me don't work 200 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,240 for my wife like vice versas. 201 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 6: So yeah, in a general sense, in order to lose weight, 202 00:09:36,799 --> 00:09:43,000 what you're trying to do is exceed calorie burn compared 203 00:09:43,039 --> 00:09:46,159 to when compared to calorie intake, if that makes sense. 204 00:09:46,519 --> 00:09:48,159 So one of the things that you really can do 205 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,440 easily is reduce your portion sizes. You know, like a 206 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,279 lot of people think that fats are bad for the 207 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,559 human body, but if you're burning them off quickly and easily, 208 00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,759 you know, they don't optimize and you don't have to 209 00:09:59,799 --> 00:10:03,120 worry about it as much. So and carbs, you know, 210 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,240 carbs are good for loading. If you're putting up a 211 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,039 whole lot of energy in the and the you know, 212 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,679 like you're gonna burn it off the same thing. You know, 213 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,639 like protein, I would say four ounces in the middle 214 00:10:13,639 --> 00:10:16,240 of the day somewhere in there, depending on your body size. 215 00:10:16,279 --> 00:10:21,519 That you know, lots of fruits and vegetables in your diet. Man, carbs. 216 00:10:21,639 --> 00:10:26,600 Carbs are not as necessary. They're they're necessary to have burned, 217 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,440 don't get me wrong, but fruits and fruits and vegetables, 218 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,519 and you can get carb heavy fruits, carb heavy vegetables 219 00:10:32,799 --> 00:10:36,200 and get that out of them as well. Corn, for instance, 220 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,759 is a starch heavy vegetable that you can get carbs 221 00:10:38,799 --> 00:10:42,240 out of that, so you're not absolutely missing carbs and 222 00:10:42,399 --> 00:10:45,200 stuff like just potato and rice. Get a back off 223 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,399 on that, I think a little bit. But you know, protein, 224 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,600 proteins and vedges. And if you're working out, it's even 225 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,240 different because then you have to worry about recovery as well. 226 00:10:54,279 --> 00:10:57,559 But if you're talking about a midday lunch, you know, 227 00:10:57,639 --> 00:10:59,759 like taking it with you in the morning to eat 228 00:10:59,799 --> 00:11:02,519 lunch to the middle of the day, backing off on 229 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,399 the portion sizes a little bit, so that the calories 230 00:11:05,759 --> 00:11:07,759 because you have to get you know, like if we're 231 00:11:07,799 --> 00:11:11,679 just talking about your average Joe that goes and has 232 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,279 an an office job. For instance, you know, if they're 233 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,320 sitting at their desk a lot that day, you know, 234 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,720 and they're putting in four thousand calories and a lunch meal, 235 00:11:18,799 --> 00:11:24,600 not only you know, like, yeah, we can back that 236 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,320 down a bit and you know, and and maybe not 237 00:11:27,399 --> 00:11:31,279 take that midday snooze or nap that you're always fighting. 238 00:11:30,919 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 4: Off, right, Yeah, yeah, that's exactly right. Hashtag munchies. Why 239 00:11:35,399 --> 00:11:38,840 are fall off the bone ribs considered overcooked? 240 00:11:40,159 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 6: Well, so technically what you're doing there is I think 241 00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:48,600 it depends on what creature, but connective tissues don't start 242 00:11:48,639 --> 00:11:52,600 falling apart. And so there's two things that will break 243 00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:57,679 down connective tissue an extended amount of time or extreme heat. 244 00:11:57,799 --> 00:12:00,360 So you don't want to cook over extreme heat because 245 00:12:00,399 --> 00:12:02,840 that's going to burn, right, So spended amount of time 246 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,639 is going to loosen those connective tissues up. And you 247 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,240 know that if you consider what the color, uh, well, 248 00:12:11,279 --> 00:12:13,279 and not only that, you know, like you're also leaching 249 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,159 nutrient out of out of the protein as well. In 250 00:12:17,279 --> 00:12:20,399 a raw piece of meat, you have the optimum amount, 251 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,799 you know, like that's that's as much nutrient as that 252 00:12:22,879 --> 00:12:25,399 steak it's ever going to have available for you. And 253 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,120 when you cook it over a long amount of time, 254 00:12:28,279 --> 00:12:31,159 you're having this leech that drips out. Now, if you 255 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,080 serve it with a sauce that is made from the drippings, 256 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,399 you can add some of that back in. But if yeah, 257 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,600 you know, technically you are over cooking it. So that's 258 00:12:40,639 --> 00:12:43,039 why you see a lot of sauces and gravies go 259 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,039 back into a stew like that, not just to keep 260 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,679 pre prevent them from drying out, but it's to add 261 00:12:48,759 --> 00:12:49,600 nutrient back. 262 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:55,799 Speaker 4: In hashtag munchies, what is proper hot dog dressing etiquette? 263 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 6: Oh man, this is that's a that's a you know, 264 00:12:59,519 --> 00:13:05,720 I'm a huge fan of the Chicago Dog, but I've 265 00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:07,919 also eaten you know, like I have kind of a 266 00:13:08,399 --> 00:13:10,960 They have this place in Vancouver. It's called a Jappa 267 00:13:11,039 --> 00:13:15,519 Dog and they put like kim chi and Benito flakes 268 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,639 and and with Sobby mayonnaise on it, and you know, 269 00:13:19,759 --> 00:13:22,320 like it was when I was in Vancouver, it was 270 00:13:22,639 --> 00:13:26,879 absolutely fantastic. And you know, like if I go to, uh, 271 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,679 you know, certain places and they have this mad chili dog, 272 00:13:29,759 --> 00:13:32,440 that's you know, like chili cheese, gut bomb. But if 273 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,240 they're doing it really right, I think it's man, I 274 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:40,519 just started telling me off of a chili dog, you know. 275 00:13:42,159 --> 00:13:44,440 I think it's wherever you're at if they're doing it 276 00:13:44,519 --> 00:13:47,120 best right. And I have a love a relationship with 277 00:13:47,159 --> 00:13:49,039 hot dogs because I served them and cooked them for 278 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,120 so long, and it's still like Pavlov's dog if I 279 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,159 smell a hot dog, you know, the opening of a 280 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,600 of a case of a hot dog, like I'm like, 281 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:58,799 I gotta have one. 282 00:13:59,039 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I know exactly what you mean there, Chef. 283 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,960 All right, I'll see if we can get at least 284 00:14:06,159 --> 00:14:08,639 one more.

So I mean, obviously the 375 00:18:42,599 --> 00:18:45,200 two favorites as we know, are playing each other in 376 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,960 round number one. If I was to take LSU and 377 00:18:49,279 --> 00:18:53,079 Arkansas off the board and I said, okay, I'm giving 378 00:18:53,079 --> 00:18:56,559 you one hundred dollars and you can go play whatever 379 00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:00,319 team you want. Now, that's not just to say, you know, 380 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,200 go play the team with the third best odd It's 381 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,000 like if you won't like to maybe get a little 382 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,559 out there and get a little juice, get a little value. 383 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,599 If I gave you one hundred dollars to bet on 384 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,279 any team outside of Arkansas and l s U, who 385 00:19:12,279 --> 00:19:14,119 would it be? U? C? 386 00:19:14,319 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 3: L A Coastal for you? 387 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 5: You see, LA, what's nine hundred? They looked really good 388 00:19:19,759 --> 00:19:22,599 in the Super Regional. I mean they've won a lot 389 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,079 of games this year. Like, that's a that's a team 390 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:30,119 that's a little sneaky. I think Coastal is better, but 391 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:30,519 like u C. 392 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,039 Speaker 8: L A has I mean LA those Coastals. Uh, I'm 393 00:19:34,079 --> 00:19:36,759 still but I mean it's pretty good. 394 00:19:36,839 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, look, I don't I don't hate that one for UCLA. 395 00:19:39,319 --> 00:19:41,640 They do get to play Murray State, that is the 396 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,519 four seed. Now if they win, they got to play 397 00:19:44,559 --> 00:19:47,119 the winner of l s U Arkansas. And if that's LSU, 398 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,960 you're going against Anthony Ianton, So you know, tough matchup 399 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:51,920 for them. 400 00:19:52,039 --> 00:19:55,599 Speaker 3: I'm going to Arizona. Yeah, that's another what they like. 401 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 4: They just beat maybe the hottest team in the country 402 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,319 after getting eighteen to two in the first game in 403 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,640 Chapel Hill, fourteen hundred feels like incredible odds. I'm shocked 404 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,200 that they're that far behind UCLA. And they get to 405 00:20:10,279 --> 00:20:13,759 open up against the Louisville who, outside of Murray State, 406 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,400 second worst side to win. Yeah, it feels like a 407 00:20:16,519 --> 00:20:18,079 decent matchup for them as well. 408 00:20:18,279 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 8: That's true. 409 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 3: I put my one hundred dollars. 410 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 5: The path isn't badres either, because like it's all about 411 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,240 the path, right, because at least amount of games you 412 00:20:27,279 --> 00:20:29,640 lose at least number of arms you have to use. 413 00:20:29,759 --> 00:20:31,799 Speaker 8: Like I don't I don't hate that either. 414 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,559 Speaker 4: Like I and I love Coastal Uh, but they face 415 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,319 or Coastal Oregon State, it's gonna be a heavyweight out. Yeah, 416 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,519 that's gonna be one of the like everybody's talking about 417 00:20:40,599 --> 00:20:43,039 LSU and Arkansas and I get it. But that game 418 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,559 right there, that's quality baseball. That is going to be 419 00:20:46,799 --> 00:20:52,440 I think just a full nine inning slugfast Yeah, like 420 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,240 they're gonna there's gonna be some counterpunching in that. 421 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 2: So the pitching is that's gonna be like a good 422 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:02,599 pitching matchup Oregon State and uh Coastal Carolina, especially if 423 00:21:03,039 --> 00:21:07,720 Oregon States Dax Whitney's going out there. Coastal Carolina has 424 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:12,960 like three legit starters on their team and their team 425 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,240 e er A is three twenty six. Now, like they're hitting, 426 00:21:17,279 --> 00:21:20,400 they're good hitters. They got a team batting average of 427 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:25,400 two eighty nine. But it's not what I don't think 428 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,680 it's what got them here. Like they're pitching is really 429 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:32,680 like what I'm looking at and what has me confident 430 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,200 in them. But I mean, yeah, that Oregon State matchup 431 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,359 is gonna be a tough one for them, But I 432 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,839 just feel really good about them, and that I mean 433 00:21:41,839 --> 00:21:44,279 I feel great about LSU, like I have a really 434 00:21:44,319 --> 00:21:47,799 really good feeling about but something about Coastal they feel 435 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:48,920 hot to me. 436 00:21:51,079 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 4: I mean, Coastal is like one of those teams that 437 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,240 I think if you're just kind of a common like 438 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,200 you only pay attention during the postseason, casual college baseball fan, 439 00:22:04,279 --> 00:22:07,440 like you're still thinking like mid major, mid major, mid major, yeah, 440 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,759 when in fact, the Sun Belt's a really good baseball conference. 441 00:22:10,799 --> 00:22:13,559 I think we all know that certainly here. But also 442 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,119 like when you've had a run and you've gone and 443 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,519 you've won a national championship, yeah, like that just gives 444 00:22:19,559 --> 00:22:21,799 you the ultimate belief. And it doesn't matter that none 445 00:22:21,839 --> 00:22:23,880 of those players were obviously there the last time they 446 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,000 did it, but the fact that you have done it 447 00:22:26,039 --> 00:22:28,920 in your program history, like, well why not us? We've 448 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,559 won fifty three games. Yeah, so yeah, coast was not 449 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:33,839 a bad play here. 450 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 3: Either. 451 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 2: Also, like, sorry, no, go ahead, they have since they 452 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,720 won in twenty sixteen, right, six Yeah, twenty sixteen. 453 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 3: They was that long ago already, right. 454 00:22:46,039 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 8: There was. 455 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,839 Speaker 2: A gap between like in twenty seventeen, they didn't make 456 00:22:50,839 --> 00:22:53,960 it to the tournament, and then they made it twenty eighteen, 457 00:22:54,039 --> 00:22:56,720 twenty nineteen, didn't make it for two years, and then 458 00:22:56,759 --> 00:23:00,599 since twenty twenty two, they've made the tournament every season 459 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:06,079 since then. So but the last like actual College World 460 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,519 Series appearance that they had was in twenty sixteen, so 461 00:23:08,559 --> 00:23:11,440 they would always lose like in the regional. But still like, 462 00:23:13,079 --> 00:23:16,559 that's a program that is pretty I mean, you're making 463 00:23:16,559 --> 00:23:18,599 it into the postseason pretty much every season. 464 00:23:18,599 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 8: It's pretty solid. 465 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,039 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I did mention it it is I think 466 00:23:22,039 --> 00:23:26,839 I had that it's Louisville, Oregon State, Arizona, Coastal. Right, Yeah, yeah, 467 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,960 I said that backwards a little bit earlier, but even 468 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,480 more so for Coastal in that one. Yeah, I was 469 00:23:33,519 --> 00:23:36,240 thinking that the way the bracket matched up. But either way, 470 00:23:36,279 --> 00:23:39,680 like I'm that portion of the bracket that is going 471 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,480 to be, like I fully expect it, like Coastal and 472 00:23:42,519 --> 00:23:45,119 Oregon State to have some type of a battle at 473 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:46,400 some point there in Omaha. 474 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 5: Well, if you remember, like back in twenty sixteen, the 475 00:23:49,519 --> 00:23:52,079 Coastal team they play a lot like they did this 476 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,319 year because that team like didn't have a ton of 477 00:23:54,319 --> 00:23:57,200 power hitters on it. They could just all get on base. 478 00:23:57,279 --> 00:24:00,000 They've only hit like sixty sixty five home runs last year. 479 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,680 Like not bad, not great. They're just teams that get 480 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,200 on base. They're good on the base pass, they got 481 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,680 good pitching. This is exactly how they were in sixteen. 482 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,759 Speaker 3: That the top portion up there is. 483 00:24:15,839 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 4: It's not going to be as easy as people are 484 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:21,000 making like Bracket one is not going to be. I 485 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,599 know everybody's talking about bracket too because LSU and Arkansas 486 00:24:23,599 --> 00:24:27,640 are in there. But going like whoever goes through there, 487 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,839 you're gonna have to go through Coastal or Oregon State, 488 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,400 even if it's one of the other teams that we're 489 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,759 talking about like each other. It's gonna be tough. It 490 00:24:34,799 --> 00:24:37,359 is not going to be just because all these top 491 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,920 seeds got knocked out. Everybody thinks they know exactly how 492 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,160 it's going to play out there. 493 00:24:41,599 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 3: But look at that schedule. 494 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:48,039 Speaker 4: It is Coastal Carolina Game one versus Arizona. That is 495 00:24:48,079 --> 00:24:50,079 going to be the first game. I believe that's a 496 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,519 noon first pitch here locally Central time. You've got Oregon 497 00:24:54,559 --> 00:24:56,920 State and Louisville. That's gonna be the nightcap and then 498 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,240 of course Game three is going to be the early game. 499 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,279 It's gonna be CLA and Murray State and then Arkansas 500 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,559 and LSU. So a lot to break down, a lot 501 00:25:05,599 --> 00:25:10,279 to get to. I wrote coach the old thirty minute warning, 502 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,880 hating her back from old Jay. We'll call him. We'll 503 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,720 see if Jay is ready to go.

Thursdays were good, he said, we're good. 509 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,279 Speaker 4: We'll call coach Jay Johnson, LSU head and baseball coach 510 00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:33,440 when we come back here on OTV.

Right, It's okay, we'll find 566 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,279 a way to talk with Jay Johnson. 567 00:28:25,319 --> 00:28:27,880 Speaker 3: I am confident in that again. 568 00:28:28,039 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 4: Coastal Carolina, Arizona, Oregon State, Louisville, Ucla, Murray State, Arkansas, 569 00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:34,039 and LSU. 570 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 3: And I was sitting there thinking. 571 00:28:37,599 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 4: The like we always talk about, like how important it 572 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,759 is to win the first game. That's for everybody, I 573 00:28:41,799 --> 00:28:44,279 guess the obvious statement. And for Arkansas and LSU to 574 00:28:44,319 --> 00:28:48,240 win that first game because of how you know, important 575 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,839 it would be for their pitching matchup in game number 576 00:28:50,839 --> 00:28:52,559 eight of the College World Series, which would be the 577 00:28:52,559 --> 00:28:57,400 winner's bracket. But look, it's baseball, so who knows what happens. 578 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,880 But like if I had to say, like a must 579 00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:02,519 win game as much as Arkansas LSU would have to 580 00:29:02,599 --> 00:29:06,000 be UCLA Murray State, yeah I do. Only I don't 581 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,559 think either one of those teams wants to face Arkansas 582 00:29:08,599 --> 00:29:10,960 or LSU in the loser's bracket, knowing who they would 583 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,920 put on the mound compared to who they would be 584 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,000 able to throw out there, like that feels as must 585 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,599 win as possible, certainly, you know, if you want to 586 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,279 keep the Cinderella season alive from Murray State. 587 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:24,839 Speaker 8: I'm trying to look at I'm trying to pull out 588 00:29:24,839 --> 00:29:25,519 the bracket. 589 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,079 Speaker 4: I just printed it off, so because the one I 590 00:29:29,119 --> 00:29:31,279 was looking at was busted a little bit earlier, so 591 00:29:31,359 --> 00:29:33,039 I just went ahead and printed that thing off. 592 00:29:33,119 --> 00:29:35,319 Speaker 3: Little old school. Sometimes technology can fail. 593 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,599 Speaker 8: I don't love the way that brackets look on computers. 594 00:29:37,799 --> 00:29:39,759 Speaker 4: Well, no, here's the thing. Here's the problem with the 595 00:29:39,839 --> 00:29:45,279 NCAA's website. Right, it's got so on the like on 596 00:29:45,319 --> 00:29:47,519 their actual website, Like when you look at it gets 597 00:29:47,519 --> 00:29:49,119 confusion because it has Oregon State. 598 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 3: And Coastals next to each other. 599 00:29:50,319 --> 00:29:53,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, Arizona Louisville next to each other, right, which those 600 00:29:53,599 --> 00:29:55,960 teams aren't playing each other in the first round. But 601 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,319 then it has Arkansas and LSUE next to each other 602 00:29:58,359 --> 00:30:01,359 they're playing and UCLA Murray State they're playing, right, and 603 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,519 so this has got to be like twice like I'll 604 00:30:03,559 --> 00:30:06,359 start talking about like, oh yeah, that's that's their mess 605 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,720 up on their website, their official NCAA website. So it 606 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,440 does get kind of confusing. That's why I look, kids, 607 00:30:12,839 --> 00:30:15,160 don't hate on the old people. Just go print it 608 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,720 off for you so you don't have to worry about technology. 609 00:30:21,519 --> 00:30:23,759 Speaker 3: Can't wait for Coastal Oregon State though, if that does. 610 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,119 Speaker 8: Happen, that's gonna be a really good matchup. 611 00:30:26,599 --> 00:30:31,599 Speaker 4: Is the winner of Like the winner of that is 612 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,200 going to be in the championship series. Yeah, I fully 613 00:30:34,519 --> 00:30:37,480 fully believe that, like the winner of if they meet 614 00:30:37,559 --> 00:30:39,480 up whoever wins that first game. 615 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 3: I truly believe they're going to be in the champions Well. 616 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,599 Speaker 5: You know, it's funny, like everyone's talking about the bottom 617 00:30:44,599 --> 00:30:46,400 part of the bracket, and I get it, but it's 618 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,759 always oh LSU Arkansas, the two juggernauts of the sport. 619 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,759 Top part of that bracket might be the more competitive 620 00:30:53,039 --> 00:30:57,200 bracket in my opinion, like Coastal Arizona, Oregon State, Louisville, 621 00:30:57,319 --> 00:31:02,359 like all four of those teams, they're good, Like they're 622 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,839 better than they're getting credit for. Also, yeah, I mean, 623 00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:09,799 the longer you can stay in that winner's bracket, the 624 00:31:09,839 --> 00:31:11,640 better you are off. And I agree, I like, I 625 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,599 like Oregon State, Coastal Carolina. But I don't know, man, 626 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,839 that's a competitive side of the bracket. That's a part 627 00:31:17,839 --> 00:31:19,200 that a lot of people aren't talking about. 628 00:31:19,319 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 4: No, they're not because you got the headliner, you have 629 00:31:21,119 --> 00:31:23,400 LSU Arkansas. And again like even that's not just here, 630 00:31:24,279 --> 00:31:26,599 that's like series six M. When we're breaking it all down, 631 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,480 like LSU Arkansas, everybody won't talk about it. 632 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,319 Speaker 3: Nobody who comes on, they're like, all right, let's start 633 00:31:30,319 --> 00:31:31,559 there with that game. And I get it. 634 00:31:31,599 --> 00:31:35,559 Speaker 4: I understand it, Like you're talking about two aces like 635 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,720 massive programs and rivals and like the whole Like I 636 00:31:39,799 --> 00:31:43,640 get all of it, but I'm sure Bracket one's actually 637 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:44,519 probably enjoying all that. 638 00:31:44,559 --> 00:31:47,119 Speaker 3: Bracket one does have some heavy hitters there. 639 00:31:48,079 --> 00:31:51,759 Speaker 4: Murray State is the fourth four seed to get to 640 00:31:51,799 --> 00:31:53,839 this point, to get to the College World Series. 641 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:54,319 Speaker 3: I think ORL. 642 00:31:54,359 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 4: Roberts was the last one, right three? When else you 643 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:02,039 won it all? Do we know the only four seed 644 00:32:02,119 --> 00:32:10,960 to ever win it? Yeah, thousand and eight, so the 645 00:32:11,039 --> 00:32:14,319 year before LA Shoot wins it in nine. So yeah, 646 00:32:14,359 --> 00:32:16,880 they entered the NCAA Tournament as a four seed in 647 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,240 the regional and then they went. 648 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 3: I believe it was Georgia. 649 00:32:21,559 --> 00:32:24,359 Speaker 4: I think they beat Georgia in the in the College 650 00:32:24,359 --> 00:32:27,200 World Series finals, so they remained the only four seed 651 00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:28,680 ever to win it. 652 00:32:28,759 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 5: So I believe they were the very last team. I 653 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,240 believe they were the very last team in the tournament, 654 00:32:35,279 --> 00:32:36,480 like the the last seed. 655 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:37,119 Speaker 3: Yeah. 656 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,279 Speaker 4: So again, like we talked about with Coastal, they've seen 657 00:32:41,319 --> 00:32:43,559 their team go do it. If you're Murray State, how 658 00:32:43,559 --> 00:32:45,519 many times do you think their coach after he gets 659 00:32:45,519 --> 00:32:48,640 done mowing the grass has talked to his team about 660 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,359 Fresno State going to win it as a four seed. 661 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,960 So's he's always good to like if you're trying to 662 00:32:55,039 --> 00:32:57,279 motivate your team, motivate your program to be able to 663 00:32:57,319 --> 00:33:00,960 have like, hey, this has happened before, it can't happen again. 664 00:33:01,079 --> 00:33:04,720 So again that Murray State UCLA game that is going 665 00:33:04,759 --> 00:33:05,799 to be game number three. 666 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 3: That will be Saturday at noon. 667 00:33:08,359 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 4: So all right, we are going to catch up with 668 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,200 the head coach of the LSU Fighting Tigers boots on 669 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:16,680 the ground there in Omaha. 670 00:33:16,799 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 3: Coach, we truly always. 671 00:33:18,359 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 4: Appreciate your time, but certainly while you're trying to get 672 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,319 ready for the College World Series. And so thanks for 673 00:33:24,359 --> 00:33:27,319 hopping on. And how was traveling yesterday? How's it been 674 00:33:27,319 --> 00:33:27,720 so far? 675 00:33:28,839 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 7: It's always the best travel day of the year, that's 676 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,880 for sure. Got here and got over to the stadium 677 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,359 and took that in for a minute, and then well 678 00:33:37,359 --> 00:33:40,240 the right to practice, so kind of back to business 679 00:33:40,279 --> 00:33:42,799 as usual and looking forward to a good day to day. 680 00:33:43,279 --> 00:33:45,839 Speaker 4: So, coach, you have had players that have been there 681 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,839 before and they've been in that moment, But what was 682 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,920 it like for the players like you watching them walk 683 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,839 into that stadium for the first time, because that's one 684 00:33:54,839 --> 00:33:57,960 of the great things about college baseball is everybody knows 685 00:33:58,039 --> 00:34:00,400 where the championship is going to be played, and so 686 00:34:00,519 --> 00:34:02,240 you know that it's in the back of your mind 687 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,799 and you can visualize yourself there. It's not like football 688 00:34:04,839 --> 00:34:08,559 and basketball where it rotates, you know, to different cities, 689 00:34:08,559 --> 00:34:10,679 different venues. What was it like for you to kind 690 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,480 of see those guys for the first time that hadn't 691 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:13,119 been there before. 692 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's pretty awesome. And there's eight players you know 693 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,840 that were on that team in twenty twenty three and 694 00:34:20,199 --> 00:34:23,039 everybody else it's their first time, and you know, they've 695 00:34:23,079 --> 00:34:26,000 worked hard. And I said this a few times last week, 696 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,920 like this team deserved to be here, whether we won 697 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,679 two games or not last weekend. And so for me, 698 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,119 if there was any kind of pressure, that was it. 699 00:34:35,199 --> 00:34:37,960 I felt like this team earned their way to Omaha 700 00:34:38,199 --> 00:34:40,159 by how they did everything, you know, on a daily 701 00:34:40,199 --> 00:34:43,440 basis through the fall, winter, early spring and then obviously 702 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,400 this season. So it was pretty awesome, you know, just 703 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,480 staying on the dugout step, watch them walk out there, 704 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,400 walk a lap around the field on a warning track, 705 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,800 take pictures, and you know, and then also we talked about, 706 00:34:55,079 --> 00:34:58,079 you know, you know, take it in and see yourself here, 707 00:34:58,079 --> 00:35:00,880 because this is where it's on. It's back to baseball 708 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:01,920 on Saturday. 709 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,320 Speaker 3: And we all know how it's going to go down. 710 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:05,400 On Saturday. 711 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:07,599 Speaker 4: You got the primetime game against a team that you 712 00:35:07,679 --> 00:35:09,840 know very well and coach. One of the things I 713 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,480 always am intrigued by is the way that you prepare 714 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,079 for your opponent. I really like you take like a 715 00:35:16,119 --> 00:35:19,679 football coach approach, like you're always watching tape like nothing 716 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,400 is going to be you know, not looked at and 717 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,039 not evaluated in your process getting ready for your game 718 00:35:27,079 --> 00:35:29,880 plan there, and you know this team incredibly well, Like 719 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,960 you just played this Arkansas team a month ago, so 720 00:35:33,079 --> 00:35:36,480 when you're preparing for this game, you have that to 721 00:35:36,559 --> 00:35:36,920 lean on. 722 00:35:37,039 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 3: But like, is there like a fine line of Okay, let's. 723 00:35:39,519 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 4: Don't lean on that experience too much even though it 724 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,119 was just four weeks ago. Like, let's also make sure 725 00:35:45,199 --> 00:35:48,199 that we're watching the regional the super regional and taking 726 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,679 that information just as much as we take our series 727 00:35:50,679 --> 00:35:52,000 against them. 728 00:35:52,639 --> 00:35:54,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure. And I kind of have a rule 729 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:56,559 when you play a team a second time or play 730 00:35:56,559 --> 00:36:00,239 them in the postseason, is like start over and do 731 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,199 it like you haven't played them before. And you know, 732 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,239 young people change a lot today, you know, let alone 733 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:11,800 four weeks ago. And then the other factor is that game. 734 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,760 Those games were played at our stadium, you know, and 735 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,239 that's a different animal. And I know that obviously because 736 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,800 with the support we get. The other part is when 737 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,119 we go on the road, things are much tougher. 738 00:36:24,159 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 6: Like that's just the reality of it. 739 00:36:25,559 --> 00:36:28,199 Speaker 7: So you know, there's some things that I did go 740 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,639 back and watch that series, at least from our pitching, 741 00:36:31,679 --> 00:36:34,280 so they're hitting, you know, to look at some things, 742 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,199 but really really focused. 743 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 6: On their last four games that they've played. 744 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, coach, and we've talked about kind of the you 745 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,400 know what the pitching matchups probably are are going to 746 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:47,920 look like. 747 00:36:48,199 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 3: And when you're a hitter and you're going back and. 748 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,519 Speaker 4: Let's say that it is you know, Zachary's going to 749 00:36:53,559 --> 00:36:56,400 be on the mound for Arkansas, Like how would like 750 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,320 how do you study film as a hitter? Like I'm 751 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,679 always curious like that, Like, Okay, well he got me 752 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,039 out with that pitch last time, and like, in my 753 00:37:03,079 --> 00:37:05,039 mind's going to go back to that pitch, but maybe 754 00:37:05,079 --> 00:37:07,119 he's going to think that I'm thinking that he's gonna 755 00:37:07,119 --> 00:37:10,039 throw a different pitch, like at the mind games of 756 00:37:10,079 --> 00:37:12,320 being in the batter's box, it gets a pitcher like that, 757 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,280 a very talented pitcher. Like, how do you tell your 758 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,360 guys to maybe look at film when they're watching that 759 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,840 of a guy that they faced before who is a 760 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:20,840 really talented pitcher. 761 00:37:21,679 --> 00:37:25,159 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think you know, familiarity is good on that side. 762 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,199 I mean because when something comes out of his hand, 763 00:37:27,599 --> 00:37:30,920 maybe recognize it a little bit sooner. And that's where 764 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,199 the advantage lies. I mean as far as did not 765 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,159 pitches and guessing. If you start guessing against the guy 766 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:41,000 of zach Rude or Kate Anderson's caliber, like, you're gonna 767 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:42,760 have a hard time. Like you're gonna end up with 768 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:44,320 twenty five. You're gonna end up in. 769 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 6: Like the worst blackjack odds. 770 00:37:46,559 --> 00:37:50,559 Speaker 7: Casino in Vegas or something like that. So it's just 771 00:37:50,599 --> 00:37:53,599 about seeing the ball, eliminating pitches, you know, getting your 772 00:37:53,639 --> 00:37:56,599 pitch to hit, taking balls, you know, bat on with 773 00:37:56,639 --> 00:37:58,719 two strikes, you know, make it hard on him and 774 00:37:59,159 --> 00:38:01,440 it's a tough place. Four runs too. Like That's that's 775 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,719 another element of this game. It's very intriguing with two 776 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,639 really good, good pictures going. So I think the other focuses. 777 00:38:07,679 --> 00:38:09,079 We've got to be ready to win a close game. 778 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,280 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, speaking of a close game, I think 779 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,159 there's obviously some pictures that's all season long you've brought 780 00:38:16,199 --> 00:38:18,360 in in those situations to close out a game. But 781 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,840 if we go back a week, you didn't have to 782 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,039 use those pictures. Zach Cowan Case and Evans like coach, 783 00:38:24,039 --> 00:38:25,639 if I would have told you you would have swept 784 00:38:25,679 --> 00:38:28,320 the series in a super regional and neither one of 785 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,559 those guys has to toe the rubber, I mean, I 786 00:38:30,559 --> 00:38:35,079 would assume you would be pretty surprised, surprised. 787 00:38:34,559 --> 00:38:39,159 Speaker 7: Happy, you know, and for you know, maybe that meant 788 00:38:39,199 --> 00:38:42,239 that the scores were, you know, kind of what they 789 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,920 were where we had a little breathing room. The other thing, too, 790 00:38:45,039 --> 00:38:48,280 is that that's an interesting deal to manage because you 791 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,679 have to protect yourself of a third game as well. 792 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,960 Now we had a real plan with how we were 793 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,800 going to use those guys in game two. Hey, Cooper 794 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,800 Williams came in and did a great job to help, 795 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,840 you know, really really close the gap between Anthony and 796 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,800 the end of the game. And I mean they just 797 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,079 Chase was throwing like one hundred and twenty miles an 798 00:39:08,119 --> 00:39:09,840 hour and like they weren't seeing it. 799 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:13,039 Speaker 4: So we just kind of rode that out so coach, 800 00:39:13,159 --> 00:39:17,559 I mean Chase shores like electric City when he came in, 801 00:39:17,639 --> 00:39:19,519 like you could feel it in the stadium. Like I 802 00:39:19,519 --> 00:39:21,639 always say this, like if you could bottle up that 803 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,679 energy and sell it, you can name your price on it. 804 00:39:24,679 --> 00:39:25,039 Speaker 3: It was. 805 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:27,039 Speaker 4: I mean it was incredible and you could feel it 806 00:39:27,079 --> 00:39:31,000 throughout the stadium. And I mean he's already a large human. 807 00:39:31,119 --> 00:39:33,320 He looked like he was eight foot tall out there 808 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,880 on the mound. And I was joking yesterday, like in 809 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,360 youth baseball, try to get him a throw stracks, like, hey, 810 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,039 fingers in the mid, fingers in the mid. I'm like, 811 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,480 I think he actually could put his fingers in the mid. 812 00:39:42,519 --> 00:39:45,599 I mean, he looks so intimidating out there. And that's 813 00:39:45,639 --> 00:39:47,519 a player that you and I have talked about, right, 814 00:39:47,519 --> 00:39:50,519 He's coming back from a major injury, and so a 815 00:39:50,559 --> 00:39:52,800 lot of times it's like we got the meat heead 816 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:54,800 mindset of Okay, he's back, so he needs to be 817 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,880 where he was before he got injured. It's just not 818 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,719 that easy, right, And that's just a player that we 819 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:01,880 can see each and every time he goes out there 820 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:05,280 gaining more confidence, more belief that you know, his arm 821 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,079 is where it's supposed to be, coach, because I mean 822 00:40:08,119 --> 00:40:10,559 he came in and the confidence that he had it 823 00:40:10,599 --> 00:40:11,199 was incredible. 824 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,119 Speaker 7: Yeah, one thing we talk a lot about is with 825 00:40:15,199 --> 00:40:18,079 the players is use your experience well. And he had 826 00:40:18,079 --> 00:40:20,960 a tough outing in the regional and you know, he 827 00:40:21,039 --> 00:40:23,760 used that well. Like I could tell all week he 828 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,519 was locked in and ready to go. And you know, 829 00:40:27,559 --> 00:40:30,639 there was there was one way you know that that 830 00:40:30,679 --> 00:40:32,880 performance was going to go whenever I gave him the ball, 831 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,559 whether it was earlier in the game or at the 832 00:40:34,639 --> 00:40:36,760 end of the game like that. And you know, like 833 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,480 I said, I kind of had a plan laid out 834 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:41,119 of how we're going to use those other guys you mentioned, 835 00:40:41,119 --> 00:40:44,920 and then it was like, now that's that's let's let 836 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,159 big man finish this out. And I'm happy for him 837 00:40:47,159 --> 00:40:49,519 and proud of him because he's a big part of this. 838 00:40:49,639 --> 00:40:52,360 Like that's one of the first big recruits that we 839 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,159 got when I got the job here. And you know, 840 00:40:55,199 --> 00:40:57,440 he's persevered to that injury. You know, he was a 841 00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,800 great team guy even though he was hurt. When we 842 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:04,480 won the national championship, he worked hard in his rehab. 843 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,440 You know, he cares about succeeding to the team a lot, 844 00:41:07,559 --> 00:41:10,320 and that was a great way, great way for a 845 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,320 super reasonal and finish up with him on the mountain. 846 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 4: Catching up with LSU head baseball coach Jay Johnson here 847 00:41:16,039 --> 00:41:19,679 on OTB coach. One of the things about Omaha is 848 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,519 you don't know how long you're going to be there, 849 00:41:21,599 --> 00:41:24,320 and you know how it goes because y'all went all 850 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,159 the way obviously just a couple of years ago, you 851 00:41:26,159 --> 00:41:28,480 won the whole thing, you played the maximum amount of 852 00:41:28,559 --> 00:41:32,280 games as a coach. Though, when you don't know that situation, 853 00:41:32,639 --> 00:41:35,360 how do you make sure that your team and everybody 854 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,480 around the team stays in the moment and doesn't worry 855 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,079 about how long you're going to be there or start 856 00:41:40,119 --> 00:41:42,199 to look ahead to what possibly could happen. 857 00:41:43,119 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 7: Well, I think you know, it's kind of how we 858 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,559 train him on a yearly basis, if you will, like 859 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:53,119 you know this pitch this game. This game's a Game 860 00:41:53,199 --> 00:41:55,159 seven of the World Series or part of the fifty 861 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:59,519 six game playoff, and the quality of the teams here 862 00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,360 catch your attention, and so I don't think that's really 863 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,239 necessarily a thing, and that's certainly the case with the 864 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:10,679 first game, and really excited about that. But every team 865 00:42:10,679 --> 00:42:13,719 here is a championship team. So and then you know, 866 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:17,559 I always feel like things wherever I can. And you 867 00:42:17,559 --> 00:42:20,199 know that movie at Hoosier's, you know where Gene Hackman, 868 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,360 you know he's talking about tournament play like you can't 869 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,119 talk about the next step. So you've climbed the one 870 00:42:24,159 --> 00:42:26,280 in front of you, right, Like all those things are 871 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:30,800 really real. We've we've talked a lot about like, man, 872 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:32,559 there's a lot of cool things that come along with 873 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,800 here being here, and I want you to enjoy those 874 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:39,000 and have the maturity and self discipline to switch the twitch, 875 00:42:39,039 --> 00:42:41,320 the mindset, you know when it's under prepared and it's 876 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,360 time to execute.
