you give your game balls to? Like from a player's

39
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,200
standpoint and a coaching staff standpoint, who do you give

40
00:01:45,239 --> 00:01:46,040
your game ball to?

41
00:01:46,599 --> 00:01:47,519
Speaker 5: In this game?

42
00:01:47,799 --> 00:01:51,879
Speaker 2: Well? I mean, obviously on the offense, there was just phenomenal,

43
00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:55,519
you know. I mean, how many people question his throwing

44
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,840
ability just because he wore number forty seven, or just

45
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,359
because he's as big as a linebacker, or just because

46
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,280
he is a physical runner. It was quite crazy and

47
00:02:05,359 --> 00:02:07,719
I couldn't believe it, Ben because first saw him throw

48
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,520
the ball, got timing, his patient, the accuracy where he's

49
00:02:11,879 --> 00:02:13,479
zipping it into the tire windows.

50
00:02:13,719 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 3: This guy could he.

51
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 2: Could throw the ball. He's really good, you know, and

52
00:02:16,879 --> 00:02:19,560
it was really fun to see him put that to action.

53
00:02:19,719 --> 00:02:22,280
And then I'll top have to give both Chase and

54
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,199
Parker a ton of credit. Oh uh yeah, those are

55
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,439
two top guys. This one I'll just make a big

56
00:02:27,479 --> 00:02:29,919
catches for him. You know, Parker had that goal line

57
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,000
there where he basically told it, you know, stole that

58
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,159
out of the hands of I think it was a safety.

59
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,719
And then you know, Chase is just constantly being that

60
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,159
like really consistent for him getting open in all different

61
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,560
varieties lands, back, shoulder face and it's but the passing

62
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,639
was so so impressive by defense by the way that

63
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,560
they're gonna dare you to have to sip it into

64
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:55,000
tight corners have to manipulate safeties to move them away

65
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,280
so that you could throw it behind him. And Bear

66
00:02:57,479 --> 00:02:59,520
was doing that game and obviously he didn't have any

67
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,000
turnovers to account for it, which that's the key. So

68
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,120
you got to give him the ball man. That's like

69
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,960
from the offensive standpoint, and then the second runner up,

70
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:07,520
i'd say.

71
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 3: Is the receivers.

72
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 2: And then I think you always have the fortunately always

73
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,919
acknowledge that offensive line is man. They are as tough,

74
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,360
as smart, as greedy of an offensive line that we've

75
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,319
ever had. Deep too. You know, we got six seven

76
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,039
guys not in social media, by six seven really legit

77
00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:26,840
guys that can play and play well. I mean, you

78
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,719
got to coach Wood's a lot of credit. But you

79
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,759
really can't talk about there. You can't talk about the

80
00:03:30,759 --> 00:03:34,199
receivers without even you know, understanding the overarching influence of

81
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,199
their especially when LJ goes down and now they have

82
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,199
to get some tough yards with one hundred and ninety

83
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,680
five pound pressed wrecks. You're really not meant to be

84
00:03:41,719 --> 00:03:44,479
a featured back. And they're able to do it on

85
00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:46,319
some key downs. They're not to say, we're able to

86
00:03:46,479 --> 00:03:49,360
pound the ball per se without LJ. But that offensive

87
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,120
line has been just been on the defensive side, you know, obviously,

88
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:54,240
I think the secondary, I think is this whole year

89
00:03:54,439 --> 00:03:57,280
has been the best segment of our whole defense, not

90
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,879
giving up big plays, being extremely competitive on thefty fifty balls.

91
00:04:00,919 --> 00:04:04,000
But the biggest thing are these huge game changing interceptions,

92
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,879
some of them for touchdowns, some of them are just

93
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,599
timely and they're the outcome of the game. And so

94
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,599
I would say, the secondary on the defense and then offense,

95
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,520
you give it to the Bear, but you got you can't,

96
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,199
like I said, you can't really give it to him

97
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,720
without acknowledging the offensive line. And then secondary would be

98
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:18,560
with Parker and Chase.

99
00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:20,319
Speaker 4: All right, b pop, But where who do you give

100
00:04:20,319 --> 00:04:22,399
your game called game ball to? As far as the

101
00:04:22,399 --> 00:04:24,319
coaching staff is concerned.

102
00:04:23,879 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you know, Klawney is obviously the main

103
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,360
figure here. You know, he's put this whole thing together.

104
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,000
He has engineered it. You know, he's the guy. When

105
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,879
they moved to the Big twelve, it's like, Hey, we

106
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,720
have to go build the best coaching staff I possibly

107
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,680
could build. Brings in j Hill. He's a former head coach.

108
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,600
Who's man, I'm scared. I think he's going to get

109
00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:45,439
some big offer here in the offseason, on which I

110
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,399
hope it's not. I hope, I hope it doesn't happen.

111
00:04:47,399 --> 00:04:49,000
I hope he's here with us like the next ten

112
00:04:49,079 --> 00:04:51,279
years at least, you know. And then he gets just

113
00:04:51,439 --> 00:04:54,639
and he gets my brother Cioni Pouha comes in from Utah.

114
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,800
I think Gary Anderson comes down. You know, the offensive

115
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,240
side of the ball. You got to shot the offensive

116
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,040
lot of coach going to Woods. Retain SESSI retained Roderick,

117
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,079
you know Harvey, you know Gennaro. You just can keep

118
00:05:07,079 --> 00:05:08,879
going down these guys. I mean, this is such an

119
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,040
all star cast and I just can't say enough. How

120
00:05:11,079 --> 00:05:13,959
when I am embedded with these guys like like like

121
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,839
they give me such access, which is unbelievable because they

122
00:05:16,879 --> 00:05:18,480
know I'm going to talk to you guys. They know,

123
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,079
they listen. They come up and they comment on our

124
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,879
statement all the time, guys, and they still don't care

125
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,800
like they and I think it's trusting me that I'm

126
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,480
not going to say things that are first inaccurate and

127
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,560
secondly obviously that give them a competitive disadvantage. But I

128
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,439
think they appreciate the arty being and the honest to goodness.

129
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,399
Reality of them is they are the most cohesive coaching

130
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:42,199
stuff I've ever been around NFL college in terms of

131
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,439
no egos, constantly engaged in how, hey, what's the best

132
00:05:45,439 --> 00:05:48,160
practice for our team, what's the best for us, what's

133
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,279
the best for our players? And it's it's a beautiful

134
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:51,720
thing to be a part of. That's why I's like,

135
00:05:52,079 --> 00:05:53,720
you know, it's like with Jay, it's like, man, I

136
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,120
just trobably freaking like somebody LSU is gonna come to

137
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,680
and say, Hey, they're gonna give you a ten million

138
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,959
dollars a year for the next five years. You obviously

139
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,879
your James, you can't pass that up. But it's like

140
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,920
you just love to keep those guys around because of

141
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,720
how you know special they are as a group. And again,

142
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,199
like I said, the guy who has orchestrated at all

143
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,879
has been clumped, you know. And then on top of it, Kelly,

144
00:06:12,959 --> 00:06:14,519
he's been to you know what I mean, to put

145
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,360
himself in front of the room. You know. I was

146
00:06:16,439 --> 00:06:18,639
reminded by coach at or not Ed Lamb, but by

147
00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:22,079
coach Barry Lamb last week or two weeks ago when

148
00:06:22,079 --> 00:06:24,120
I saw him leading up to the Utah game that

149
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,399
he had Kelly and other guys. I think you were there,

150
00:06:26,399 --> 00:06:29,199
Ben get up and do special team segments and stuff,

151
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,480
and it's like, well, no, wonder why Kelly has become

152
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,360
such the coach he has. You know, he's already kind

153
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,519
of been training when he was playing, you know. And

154
00:06:35,519 --> 00:06:37,920
and like we've mentioned already with special teams being such

155
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,040
a huge part of their success over the last two years,

156
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,800
and they're run so far. I mean, that's just you know,

157
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,680
you got to Kelly a lot of credit, you know, so,

158
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,480
I mean it's and then Roberts, I just can't say

159
00:06:46,519 --> 00:06:49,839
enough about him, guys. I mean, true freshman you're freaking

160
00:06:50,199 --> 00:06:54,199
all star workhorse running back goes down on a defense

161
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,560
by the way that has not their strength, is not

162
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,959
stopping the run, and now you have to go and

163
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,199
throw the ball all over the yard with the true

164
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,720
freshman quarterbacks, and he does it awesome. I just I mean,

165
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,480
Roderick is just he has answered the call. I mean

166
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,120
so many times in ways that people just got to

167
00:07:11,199 --> 00:07:14,319
start sitting back and enjoying what they're seeing because this

168
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,040
is not normal. You don't get a true look at Michigan.

169
00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:19,120
I think that it was like a good call, highly

170
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,800
highly rated kid, true freshman. If you watch him throw

171
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,000
the ball or run, I mean extreme inconsistency. You know,

172
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,959
he either struggles in one thing or struggles in the other,

173
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,279
doesn't get settled in. Bear's a go plat often now

174
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,199
Bear special. Don't get me wrong, you gotta get credit

175
00:07:31,199 --> 00:07:33,120
to the player. But the fact that he's being put

176
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,680
in the position to thrive, that's Roderick, you know, and

177
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,680
all his staff, and you just can't say enough about him. So, yeah,

178
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,839
the coaching has been really good, you know, really really good.

179
00:07:42,839 --> 00:07:45,000
And like I said, I think it's been a special

180
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,439
group and you're seeing the fruit. So that as we

181
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:50,079
speak right.

182
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 4: Now, truly remarkable to watch the creative ways in which

183
00:07:54,079 --> 00:07:57,959
b Yu's winning. A lot of people feel that there's

184
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,240
some sort of divine intervention it's allowing b YU to

185
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:02,160
win games.

186
00:08:02,319 --> 00:08:04,439
Speaker 5: How do you see it? How is b WHYU eight?

187
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 4: No, people just keep on there like they're not giving

188
00:08:07,639 --> 00:08:09,879
any credit to be why You're like, how are they winning?

189
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 5: They shouldn't be winning in these games?

190
00:08:14,759 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 2: Well, I laugh because you know, and I'm gonna shout

191
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,360
out to my second counsel, and the stigma it's also

192
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,879
at John said, Will mention that, you know, like in

193
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,040
the weather delay at Arizona, He's like, yeah, Brandy, I

194
00:08:26,079 --> 00:08:28,000
heard that they're reading the scriptures and I was like, John,

195
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,319
that's the reason why they won the game right there.

196
00:08:30,439 --> 00:08:35,200
You know, one in reality, you know, it's God doesn't

197
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,600
care who wins. You know, God is in fact wanting

198
00:08:37,639 --> 00:08:41,360
to everybody to go out and and and live out

199
00:08:41,399 --> 00:08:45,039
their best selves, be an expression of who you already are.

200
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,120
You know, that's that's God's and for us all. We

201
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,120
all have divinity within us and the challenge of mortality

202
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,159
is that make that manifest in our mortal lives. And

203
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,440
that's the same goes for the field of play, you know,

204
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,440
and it's a little different in football. People don't realize

205
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,840
that when you're out there playing with this edge and

206
00:08:59,879 --> 00:09:03,039
the competitive feistiness and violence and you're stacking dudes in

207
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,519
the phase and you're pulling them up, Yes, well, that

208
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,519
is an expression of your divinity against what their best

209
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,480
is and their divinity. And it's meant to be that way.

210
00:09:10,519 --> 00:09:12,759
It's meant to challenge each other because you're expecting the

211
00:09:12,759 --> 00:09:15,440
same out of your opponent. You're expecting them if you're

212
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,840
in a position that's not sound if you're out of

213
00:09:17,879 --> 00:09:19,480
position that they're going to blow you up in the

214
00:09:19,519 --> 00:09:22,360
same way and shoot to the same violent rigor of competition.

215
00:09:22,799 --> 00:09:25,399
That's what it's about. So God doesn't care. You know,

216
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,080
who grows the new wins and loses. But at the

217
00:09:27,159 --> 00:09:30,480
end of the day, our guys are resilient, they're competitive.

218
00:09:30,519 --> 00:09:32,960
And the biggest thing that I really noticed it was

219
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,360
last year, is the core of this team loves to play.

220
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,919
They'd love it, they'd love to go out and compete.

221
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,080
And what happens was when you enjoyed the really difficult,

222
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,679
prickly uncomfortable parts of the journey, These games where you

223
00:09:47,799 --> 00:09:50,200
pull a team to a place of discomfort that may

224
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,399
not enjoy the discomfort as much as you do, tend

225
00:09:53,399 --> 00:09:55,840
to struggle more Like you saw if Iowa State, they

226
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,600
started to kind of implode. You know, you have that

227
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,159
ball ricochetff that players foot in the punt where we

228
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:08,519
get it back, miscoverages, some you know, holding calls, you know,

229
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,679
interceptions thrown, those kinds of things that ended up becoming

230
00:10:11,799 --> 00:10:14,120
huge for us. And I do believe it's because these

231
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,240
guys love to play, and when they get into these

232
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:20,799
very highly competitive moments, they do not feel uncomfortable. They're

233
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,320
willing to grind, and they're willing to just kill them

234
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:24,960
and go through them. Where I think a lot of

235
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,840
players and people in general, when they get to uncomfortable

236
00:10:27,879 --> 00:10:29,799
situations they kind of just want to rush through them

237
00:10:29,799 --> 00:10:32,440
because they're so uncomfortable. I everybody, that's our natural response, Oh,

238
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,679
I got to get through this. I get back to

239
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,559
a place of comfort. In reality, we have to at

240
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,679
times when it's necessary, and when we're participating in sports,

241
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,159
our jobs, our families, there's going to be uncomfortable moments.

242
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,120
And those that are willing to be still in those

243
00:10:46,159 --> 00:10:49,720
uncomfortable moments and know that they're for our good tend

244
00:10:49,759 --> 00:10:51,559
to handle them a little bit better than those are

245
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,759
trying to rush through them. And we just have a

246
00:10:53,799 --> 00:10:56,720
collective group of kids right now, and it's by the

247
00:10:56,799 --> 00:10:59,080
leadership with client in that coaching staff that man, they're

248
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,919
willing to get to those a couple of moments and

249
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,480
grind there, grind, and then they poll teams there and

250
00:11:04,519 --> 00:11:06,399
they see who's willing to stay there with us. It's

251
00:11:06,399 --> 00:11:08,399
so far this year nobody's been willing to stay there.

252
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 4: I want to get into the special teams component here,

253
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:17,120
because I do think it's an underrated, under heralded component

254
00:11:17,159 --> 00:11:18,720
of football in general.

255
00:11:18,759 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 5: Like, no one feels like that special teams wins football games.

256
00:11:25,279 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 4: We typically focus on offense and or defense, right, Like,

257
00:11:27,879 --> 00:11:31,679
I've never heard special teams win championships.

258
00:11:31,759 --> 00:11:34,759
Speaker 5: Right, this is a complimentary football team, right.

259
00:11:35,039 --> 00:11:40,159
Speaker 4: ESPN SP plus Advanced Analytics rates the offense twenty seventh

260
00:11:40,159 --> 00:11:43,200
in the country, the defense fifteenth, but the special teams

261
00:11:43,279 --> 00:11:44,559
unit at six in the country.

262
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 5: I'll be honest, I have.

263
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,799
Speaker 4: Never seen in my oh man, how long have I

264
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,639
been watching football? You know, I mean we're talking over

265
00:11:53,159 --> 00:11:56,480
like probably thirty plus years of me watching high level football.

266
00:11:56,519 --> 00:11:59,039
And then you know, an additional I don't know how

267
00:11:59,039 --> 00:12:02,440
many years of playing it. Anyway, I rarely have ever

268
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:07,879
see special teams as productive in creating turnovers. Number one,

269
00:12:07,919 --> 00:12:12,480
that's an insane stat. How many turnovers we create on

270
00:12:12,919 --> 00:12:16,720
punt cover and I maybe even kickoff cover too, because

271
00:12:16,759 --> 00:12:20,159
we've probably forced some fumbles that I'm not recalling. And

272
00:12:20,159 --> 00:12:23,720
then also on the flip side, how many kickoff returns

273
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,000
and punt returns for touchdowns and even flipping of the

274
00:12:26,039 --> 00:12:27,679
field with punt.

275
00:12:27,399 --> 00:12:28,399
Speaker 5: Return and kick return.

276
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,039
Speaker 6: Yeah, let's let's elaborate on this a little bit like

277
00:12:31,159 --> 00:12:36,200
I feel like we're creating momentum changes through special teams

278
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:40,559
that then turn into more touchdowns and more opportunities for

279
00:12:40,639 --> 00:12:41,279
our offense.

280
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,919
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and the two bags, well three of the biggest examples.

281
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,399
Last three games with the Parker Kings's fund return against

282
00:12:49,399 --> 00:12:53,399
Arizona to set up that tying touchdown, you got the

283
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,600
fumbled or the muff punt that Sam he just kicked

284
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,480
the you know, it was one of his dud punts,

285
00:12:58,639 --> 00:13:00,960
but because of the way he punts the ball with

286
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,440
the Australian style, it had a forward had a forward rotation,

287
00:13:05,639 --> 00:13:09,799
which that's what made the returner for Utah panic and

288
00:13:09,919 --> 00:13:12,879
try to field it because he's trying to save field

289
00:13:12,879 --> 00:13:14,840
position because he knows as soon as it hits it's

290
00:13:14,879 --> 00:13:18,240
most likely going to roll towards his goal on and

291
00:13:18,279 --> 00:13:20,399
so you know that's why he rushed it, try to

292
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,279
try to field it when he probably shouldn't have. And

293
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,000
then we get the fumble recovery. And then last week

294
00:13:26,039 --> 00:13:29,840
we had a phenomenal recovery or excuse me, return by

295
00:13:29,919 --> 00:13:33,240
Hagen that set up excell field position for either a

296
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,000
go ahead or a tying touchdown. Score that that shortened

297
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,399
the fielding. I did that obviously. You know that that

298
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,960
fumble that hits the kid's legs, which Clownie actually is

299
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,679
exactly right. That's exactly what Kelly teaches. Kelly teaches that. Hey,

300
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,200
if you've got guys that when the ball hits the

301
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,600
ground on the return team and we're covering and they're

302
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,240
not willing to get out of the way, because you're

303
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,919
supposed to spread like wildfire, You're literally supposed to run

304
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,759
the ops away. The ball was punting. But if guys

305
00:13:58,799 --> 00:14:00,480
are going to stick around and you got you got

306
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,399
them locked up, push them right into the ball. And

307
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,279
that's exactly what their coach dought. A lot of people

308
00:14:04,279 --> 00:14:06,200
look at it, Oh what a lucky play. No, no,

309
00:14:06,519 --> 00:14:09,159
that's exactly what Kelly coaches. I'm really happy that Clanne

310
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,039
acknowledge that because it's true, you know, and so what

311
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,799
I what I shape it up to. And you can

312
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,360
call me bias or whatever. I don't really care. Kelly's

313
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,679
Kelly is the best special teams coach to coach. Okay,

314
00:14:19,879 --> 00:14:23,399
I don't. I just think the words best special teams

315
00:14:23,399 --> 00:14:25,919
coach sounds kind of crazy. But look at the stats,

316
00:14:26,399 --> 00:14:28,600
look at what like you said, Like if we said, hey,

317
00:14:28,639 --> 00:14:30,759
what because you had a ranking there of six, you know,

318
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,440
the top six. But if you really said what special

319
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,600
teams units have constantly, in a consistent manner make game

320
00:14:36,679 --> 00:14:39,120
changing plays like the ones I just mentioned, I would

321
00:14:39,159 --> 00:14:41,879
imagine we are by far ahead of any other team

322
00:14:41,879 --> 00:14:44,600
in the country. And the way that Kelly does this

323
00:14:44,799 --> 00:14:46,879
is Kelly has got an energy when he coaches that

324
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:50,279
he is both a he's a disciplinarian where he's going

325
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,720
to demand top effort, he's going to demand perfect execution,

326
00:14:54,279 --> 00:14:56,200
he's going to demand what a lot of what we

327
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,440
would call old school strict coaches do, and he's going

328
00:14:58,519 --> 00:15:01,399
to call you out. Kelly's not afraise, just like myself.

329
00:15:01,399 --> 00:15:04,960
He's not afraid to speak truth. But the difference between

330
00:15:05,039 --> 00:15:07,960
Kelly and myself is Kelly is very very likable in

331
00:15:08,039 --> 00:15:11,639
doing so. I could be abrasive, he's not. And so

332
00:15:11,679 --> 00:15:14,600
what that does is these kids respond to that, and

333
00:15:14,679 --> 00:15:16,960
also it builds a sense of wanting to make the

334
00:15:17,039 --> 00:15:20,559
team proud. Kelly does a nice job of accountability, not

335
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,919
to him at the coach, but to the team, you know,

336
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,879
to your teammates. So when you see those kids flying

337
00:15:25,919 --> 00:15:28,679
down there. And that's to me, like, if just so

338
00:15:28,759 --> 00:15:30,879
people can kind of look at how good is a

339
00:15:30,919 --> 00:15:33,799
special team unit. Look at what happens. I'll kick off

340
00:15:33,919 --> 00:15:36,120
when the ball goes through the end zone. If you

341
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,000
got guys running through the end zone in a frenzy,

342
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,600
high energy, and then I'll punt your gunners just flying

343
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,840
down there again high energy. Those are the two units

344
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,320
that really tell the story of what your special teams

345
00:15:49,399 --> 00:15:55,799
units are about. What those are the defiance and those

346
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:08,559
moment and the commitment of that unit. They are fired

347
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,200
in a frenzy pace because it's for each other, and

348
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,200
that's what Kelly coaches. And then Kelly gets excellent support.

349
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,080
By the way, we cannot discredit this. I want everybody

350
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,200
to know this. Jay Hill is a former special teams coach.

351
00:16:20,799 --> 00:16:25,519
His input is also tremendously impactful. I hope everybody knows that.

352
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,240
That's why I'm really scared Jay Hill's gonna get hired

353
00:16:28,279 --> 00:16:30,840
away somewhere because somebody else I should say this, Okay,

354
00:16:30,919 --> 00:16:34,399
Key Hill sucks everybody. Okay, anybody listens to me from LSU.

355
00:16:34,879 --> 00:16:40,279
He's terrible. I can't believe he's unbelievable. God, yeah, I

356
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,039
should have said that. Yeah, I just I mean, I

357
00:16:42,039 --> 00:16:44,039
can't speak enough about how good Jay Hill is too,

358
00:16:44,039 --> 00:16:47,360
because he's also helping Kelly. But but Kelly's I mean,

359
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,279
Kelly is he gets in front of the team and

360
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,120
like I said, the way that he handles a room

361
00:16:52,159 --> 00:16:54,600
full of men and how they respect him, and he

362
00:16:54,639 --> 00:16:57,600
shows their mutual respect and it motivates them to play

363
00:16:57,639 --> 00:16:59,159
for each other and play at a high levels, just

364
00:16:59,159 --> 00:17:01,679
specially you know. And I loved watching like I'll never

365
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,799
forget then when I sat in the first one it

366
00:17:04,839 --> 00:17:07,559
was two years ago, and I'm like, that's my younger brother,

367
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,599
you know, because I start having the memories of where

368
00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:14,480
we were. He was Kelly, Kelly Belly, you know, and

369
00:17:14,559 --> 00:17:16,400
the guy used to pick off, you know, here he

370
00:17:16,519 --> 00:17:18,920
is he's just you know, a man, just a leader,

371
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,440
and these kids are responding to them. It's a beautiful

372
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,200
thing to see. And so yeah, you can't really discount

373
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,079
the SUSH teams. They've been phenomenal and a huge reason

374
00:17:27,079 --> 00:17:29,000
why we're able to see where we're at. And they're

375
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,440
going to continue to be that way, by the way,

376
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,960
because that's that's these games are tight. Everybody's so close

377
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,240
in terms of talent. You have to have their differentiators,

378
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,599
and for us right now, special teams one of those differentiators.

379
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 4: I wonder like if Jay were to get poach, which

380
00:17:42,759 --> 00:17:45,480
is a it's a possibility, we all know that.

381
00:17:45,559 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 5: I do think it's hard for big time donors.

382
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 4: Look at everything that's occurred in college football thus far

383
00:17:52,559 --> 00:17:56,279
this season. Big time schools, uh you know are run

384
00:17:56,319 --> 00:17:59,279
now by big time donors, and they are very volatile

385
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,599
in and knee jerk reaction. I mean, look like Penn

386
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,000
State firing their coach absurd, even LSU and Brian Kelly,

387
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,759
even though I don't think it's a great fit. I mean,

388
00:18:07,839 --> 00:18:10,440
come on, like, it's not like it's like he's a

389
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,640
bad football coach, right Like, this is insane and you're

390
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,119
just firing these guys in paying on fifty million. I

391
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,279
think it's very hard for donors to buy into a

392
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:24,319
defensive coordinator as their head coach representing their school right now.

393
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:25,279
Speaker 5: It's not sexy.

394
00:18:25,519 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 4: It's not a sexy higher and I think that may

395
00:18:28,279 --> 00:18:31,599
limit opportunities too, because the donors are making more of

396
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,279
these executive decisions. They are the front office, if you will,

397
00:18:35,599 --> 00:18:38,160
of these college institutions right now.

398
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 2: So you're right, you're right, and and let's hope they

399
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,839
think that way, you know, because if any of these

400
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,519
donors out there knew what I know of Jay, I

401
00:18:48,559 --> 00:18:51,359
wouldn't even I wouldn't even be like questioning that at all,

402
00:18:52,039 --> 00:18:54,000
Like he would be my number one guy. Like that's

403
00:18:54,039 --> 00:18:57,359
how impressive he is, because he's he's beyond the ex's

404
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,440
and oh, although he's phenomenal x's and oh wise, but

405
00:19:00,559 --> 00:19:03,720
just in terms of game management, in terms of motivational,

406
00:19:03,759 --> 00:19:06,640
in terms of team unity, in terms of like he's

407
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,559
very like killing much like killing in the same way

408
00:19:08,599 --> 00:19:10,680
where he has the ability to really hold guys account

409
00:19:10,759 --> 00:19:13,279
or if you go to the practice, he's whipping dudes

410
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,279
left and right, but he does in a way that

411
00:19:15,319 --> 00:19:17,400
they respect, and he does in the way that's positive

412
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:18,880
in the sense that he's not just doing it to

413
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,200
be annoying or just make noise. He's doing it because

414
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,920
he's putting them in position to make plays. And it's

415
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,279
almost like, hey, man, I just I just handed a

416
00:19:28,279 --> 00:19:30,559
play that you want a silver player, and because you

417
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,720
chose to be out of position, you missed that play.

418
00:19:32,759 --> 00:19:35,200
That's that's more of his spirit of what he's where

419
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,119
he's coaching from a player still that and that's why

420
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,480
they respond like I, like I said in the beginning,

421
00:19:39,599 --> 00:19:42,400
the secondary has been one of the top the top

422
00:19:42,519 --> 00:19:45,279
segment of our defense. And you know Jay in addition,

423
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,559
according to the defense, he also you know, he's he's

424
00:19:48,559 --> 00:19:51,079
a safety's coach, which they've the huge you look at

425
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,640
all the big players or safeties have made it's been unbelievable.

426
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,400
But uh but yeah, you're right. The donors do make

427
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,200
most of the choices, and they are going to be

428
00:19:59,319 --> 00:20:04,480
more very elementary football. I would call it more fag

429
00:20:04,559 --> 00:20:07,119
football where they're looking at the tendencies. Oh you know

430
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,160
and McVay and this guy and that guy. Okay, yeah,

431
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,079
offensive coaches, let's do that, you know. When in fact,

432
00:20:13,079 --> 00:20:15,839
if you really knew Jay, he would be you know,

433
00:20:16,079 --> 00:20:18,119
and if they understood what it took to be a coach,

434
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:19,920
he would be number one on a lot of these

435
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,200
big lists. And I know, like I know James Franklin guys.

436
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:24,759
I mean, he coached with me when I was at

437
00:20:24,799 --> 00:20:27,359
the Packers. You know, it's not like these guys are

438
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,720
just no namers that I have no idea. And I'm

439
00:20:29,759 --> 00:20:32,480
just saying this because Jason are you know, buyu teams

440
00:20:32,519 --> 00:20:34,880
like I know Jay versus Jane, and I know James

441
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,319
Frankle just got fired, but he's probably gonna be in

442
00:20:37,319 --> 00:20:39,240
line to be, you know, the LSU coach because he's

443
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,000
an offensive coach like you mentioned. But Jay would run

444
00:20:42,079 --> 00:20:45,319
circles around James Franklin as a head coach, just everybody does,

445
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,119
and I do. I hope you guys don't tweet that.

446
00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:49,839
Can we can we just for for fun not tweet

447
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,279
that make that viral because you know you're gonna get

448
00:20:52,319 --> 00:20:54,240
some donor that's going to be like, oh gosh, what

449
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,119
this guy? I got a look keeper to this, and

450
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,359
then they'll actually be like, oh, let's so sorry.

451
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:00,599
Speaker 3: Jay.

452
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,319
Speaker 2: I know you listen to the show, and I'm not

453
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,440
trying to like burst your like market bubble here, but

454
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,440
I'm just selfish. They hoping you stay.

455
00:21:08,759 --> 00:21:11,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, and and so, but I do wonder like who

456
00:21:11,319 --> 00:21:14,359
would be the DC who would be like the candidates

457
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,160
to fill those big shoes if he was to get poached.

458
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,720
I would be intrigued obviously with K Pop, Gary Anderson,

459
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,039
you know guys that are we.

460
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 2: Talk about this. Let's let's let's not go there.

461
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 5: I can't okay, all right, we're not even gonna go there.

462
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,279
Speaker 4: Okay, real quick, b Yu versus Ioways State though this

463
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,480
game personnel wise, who stood out to you? Who do

464
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,160
you want to give your game balls to? As far

465
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,400
as the players are concerned.

466
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, offensively, it's got to be there. I mean, you

467
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,400
have LJ. Go down. Who he's your offenses ran through

468
00:21:45,519 --> 00:21:48,920
LJ since week one and everything's been a compliment, and

469
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,279
all of a sudden he goes down and now it's

470
00:21:50,279 --> 00:21:53,279
all there, it's all bear Man, and all we got

471
00:21:53,319 --> 00:21:55,200
is we've got Preston Rex Bless his heart. He does

472
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,359
a good job of being, you know, a fly sweep guy,

473
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,200
a screening screen guy. He's more of a you know,

474
00:22:00,279 --> 00:22:02,079
on the edges kind of running back. He's not going

475
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:03,880
to be your feature back because he's too small, he's

476
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,480
one ninety five. But yet here we are. You know,

477
00:22:06,519 --> 00:22:08,720
we got press and races are featured back and Bear.

478
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,359
If Bear goes out there and just dices up Iowa

479
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,680
State's defense, I mean so fun to watch because so

480
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,640
many people that think you can throw the ball, so

481
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,240
many people that think he was a pit pastor, but

482
00:22:19,279 --> 00:22:21,240
in reality, this guy could sip it and he showed it.

483
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,640
You know against the defense, by the way, that is

484
00:22:23,759 --> 00:22:25,440
a fair I think it's one of the top defenses

485
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,759
the pass efficiency in the country. Their their main weakness

486
00:22:28,799 --> 00:22:30,400
is stoping the run. As a matter of fact, is

487
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,440
they so heavily focused on the top of the pass

488
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,480
with their you know, obsessive eight man drops, which I

489
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,240
think are just absurd. But Barrett made a pay for that.

490
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,559
But you always have to keep the overarching theme of

491
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,599
that offense with the offensive line again, had a phenomenal game.

492
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,240
We're tough, we're moving, guys were for the most part,

493
00:22:48,319 --> 00:22:52,400
hitting their targets, stayed away from dumb penalties. Again, just

494
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,240
just a solid foundation, and we got six seven guys

495
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,480
that can play across that that offensive line too. And

496
00:22:58,519 --> 00:23:00,279
then on the defensive side, I have to give it

497
00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:03,440
to the secondary, most specifically the safety position. You know,

498
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,079
they had that big, big interception for the touchdown there,

499
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,440
and then you know they've been I think the most

500
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,079
the second I mentioned, the most consistent performers of all

501
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,839
three segments of our defense over the year. But they

502
00:23:14,839 --> 00:23:17,000
really kept the city. Although we give us a big

503
00:23:17,039 --> 00:23:18,920
touchdown to start with there, which is kind of a

504
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,359
funky deal, but they've more than made up with it

505
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,720
throughout the game. And so those were I been looking

506
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:25,720
at the highlight for our win.

507
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,599
Speaker 4: Love it great breakdown Brady Pepinga ladies and gentlemen, b

508
00:23:30,759 --> 00:23:33,680
yus eight and no, they're in the top ten. And

509
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:39,440
can they stay humble, stay hungry, get healthy and be

510
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,400
Texas Tech on the road that's going to be their

511
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,359
biggest test of the season. But I always state was

512
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,319
no joke. That was sixty two thousand strong and a

513
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,119
good football team.

514
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 2: Absolutely, But you know Texas seconds playmakers on the edges

515
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,960
and their running backs good, they're all line solid. But yeah,

516
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,440
I mean they're going to go up against the most

517
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,640
talented team. It's a twenty five million dollar team, which

518
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,200
is good. It's good. Let's let's see what they're made of,

519
00:24:05,279 --> 00:24:07,599
you know. And uh and their defensive stout, man, those

520
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,119
they got some big It's very interesting Ise Tech. You

521
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,839
to you for offense with Fike leaks, and they would

522
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,440
kind of I think, you know, they would give up

523
00:24:15,519 --> 00:24:17,880
some things on the defense to to make sure their

524
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,440
offense was good. And so they were ever really known

525
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,359
to have strong defenses or real physical defenses. And I said,

526
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:24,960
this is the year first year that I've seen a

527
00:24:25,039 --> 00:24:28,920
texta tech team that is absolutely physical from the inside out,

528
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,880
starting with their nose guards and the d tackles and

529
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,599
uh so, and they got an excellent passer for the

530
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,359
best of the country that we're gonna have to you know,

531
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,640
account for and uh and let's hope we get bear

532
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,680
back because the best way to stop these guys is

533
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,599
the run. Excuse me, lg back. And the best way

534
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,400
to stop these guys is rub the ball right down

535
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,559
the middle of that defense and wear them out trying

536
00:24:49,599 --> 00:24:51,839
to stop the run. So and if not, I do

537
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,720
think we do have some depth at the running back

538
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:57,000
position that people don't realize. With good mooney, I also

539
00:24:57,039 --> 00:25:00,640
think paying a walk on that's that pain sun big

540
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,200
stick runner, those guys could step in and get us

541
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,319
some tough yards if need to be. But we'll see

542
00:25:05,319 --> 00:25:07,119
what Robert's got up sleep and we'll see what happened.

543
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,880
O Ye, I'm not sure you know if he's going

544
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,039
to be able to play or not. But but yeah,

545
00:25:11,079 --> 00:25:12,559
I think I think we got some depth there that

546
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,039
hasn't been tapped into yet that could come in and

547
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,079
help them and help keep that you know, that strong

548
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,400
running power running game going to be the foundation of

549
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:20,799
what we do.

550
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,559
Speaker 4: Lasting for those that are building out their gym looking

551
00:25:24,559 --> 00:25:27,759
for gym equipment for that gym, how can they get

552
00:25:27,759 --> 00:25:30,160
a hold of you and maybe get the right equipment

553
00:25:30,799 --> 00:25:34,759
for the right the right area whatever they're building out

554
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,480
as far as their gym is concerned, residentially or commercially.

555
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, because we we do gym designs for both home

556
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,160
users and then up to commercial users. And so you're referencing.

557
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,079
You know, if somebody wants to convert let's say a

558
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,720
part of the garage or their garage or a bedroom

559
00:25:47,839 --> 00:25:49,440
or some room in their house to a gym, it's

560
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,680
a perfect benefit to use service to use because you're

561
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,160
able to design everything out before you even touch anything.

562
00:25:55,599 --> 00:25:57,759
And it's a three D software to where you can

563
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,200
put the dimensions, the windows, the space is. Then you

564
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:02,960
put the equipment in there and there's three D models

565
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,440
of all the equipment that's circulation, and then you get

566
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,359
to see how the equipment's configured, how much equipment can

567
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,400
companilly fit into space. In the commercial space, we do

568
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,359
it because it's good because you can sagment out your

569
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,359
cardio space, your strength space, and then on your functional

570
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,559
area space you can kind of configure it to the

571
00:26:18,599 --> 00:26:21,200
shape of the area and then after that we we

572
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,279
implement it. You know, it's a one fop shop kind

573
00:26:23,279 --> 00:26:25,200
of thing. We do all the installation, we procure all

574
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,440
the equipment, and then post sales we do all the support.

575
00:26:27,759 --> 00:26:29,559
That's where we hang our hot is on the support

576
00:26:30,039 --> 00:26:32,160
and service. That's why we're offering the service for free

577
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,319
because it's an opportunity for us to gain your trust

578
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,880

Speaker 4: We got John Beck on the line. John, how is

640
00:29:23,799 --> 00:29:25,240
your weekend, buddy?

641
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,799
Speaker 3: It was a good weekend, Ben, A lot of all

642
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:33,720
good big win at the high school, but Pop waher

643
00:29:33,759 --> 00:29:36,200
games didn't go quite as good. But you know what,

644
00:29:36,279 --> 00:29:38,079
you learn a lot of lessons from the tough ones

645
00:29:38,119 --> 00:29:41,240
as well. So the back boys are growing and learning

646
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:42,839
through all the experiences they're going through.

647
00:29:43,119 --> 00:29:46,519
Speaker 4: How much cross pollination is there in your in your

648
00:29:46,559 --> 00:29:49,519
playbook and your game planning from high school to the

649
00:29:49,559 --> 00:29:52,880
Pop Warner level? I mean, are you are you strategically

650
00:29:54,359 --> 00:30:00,799
creating personnel groupings and schematics for your your Warner team

651
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,839
that also extend to the Shan Clementy team as well?

652
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 3: No, not none necessarily. Like Dennis Pitt and I, actually

653
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,880
we both coach on Pop Warner teams that actually practice

654
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,720
on the same field. So he and I go from

655
00:30:15,759 --> 00:30:20,079
the varsity practices and we walk right over to the

656
00:30:20,079 --> 00:30:22,319
fields where our kids do the pop warner. We always

657
00:30:22,359 --> 00:30:24,880
talk about, like, you know, you have to build a

658
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,359
game plan that is going to give your team an

659
00:30:27,359 --> 00:30:30,720
opportunity to move the football. But we also one of

660
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,759
the reasons why we're doing it is because we want

661
00:30:32,759 --> 00:30:35,920
to help our kids have a really good football foundation.

662
00:30:36,519 --> 00:30:38,599
And so when you can build a base level of

663
00:30:38,759 --> 00:30:44,319
understanding of foundational plays, a lot of offensive football builds

664
00:30:44,359 --> 00:30:47,400
off of that foundation, off of those understandings. And so

665
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,359
if you can create that at a young level individually

666
00:30:51,519 --> 00:30:54,640
for you know, our own kids, but then also as

667
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,680
a team, that then if that group can stay together,

668
00:30:58,119 --> 00:31:00,240
it just builds on top of each other. So we

669
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,119
don't necessarily run like, oh, hey, we're going to do

670
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,559
exact things that the high school is doing. But we

671
00:31:05,599 --> 00:31:09,400
always talk about we are structuring kind of the foundation

672
00:31:09,519 --> 00:31:11,599
of our playbook in a way that when our kids

673
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,640
do get to that high school level, they should feel advanced.

674
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,920
They should feel that they have a great understanding week

675
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,319
to week, anything that comes up in a game plan,

676
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,880
any little tweak that you want to do, they understand

677
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,440
the where and the why. And so I've always kind

678
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,640
of prided myself on pushing the kids when they're young.

679
00:31:31,119 --> 00:31:33,119
And maybe some people that have been on my teams

680
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,839
might say, man, it seems like John, you know, really

681
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,920
kind of does a lot offensively for young kids. But yeah,

682
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,559
I do, because I believe that football is like a language,

683
00:31:43,799 --> 00:31:45,640
and if you can get a young kid to learn

684
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,559
how to speak a secondary language by just speaking it

685
00:31:48,599 --> 00:31:50,559
all the time in your home and really pushing them,

686
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,119
that can happen in football as well, and then when

687
00:31:53,119 --> 00:31:55,599
they get to those upper levels, now you can get

688
00:31:55,599 --> 00:31:56,240
more out of them.

689
00:31:57,279 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 4: John Beck, Ladies and gentlemen, talking to some football. How

690
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,000
did the Beck fam compete this weekend? What was the

691
00:32:03,039 --> 00:32:03,880
win loss record?

692
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:07,559
Speaker 3: You know what? It was one and two. Probably the

693
00:32:07,599 --> 00:32:11,359
highlight was the varsity team. My son got to start

694
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,839
for the varsity team in a big game and we

695
00:32:15,279 --> 00:32:18,079
had to play an undefeated Los al Amidos team and

696
00:32:18,559 --> 00:32:20,640
it was a huge win for our team, huge win

697
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,480
for the program for the seniors as well on Senior night,

698
00:32:23,519 --> 00:32:26,359
and it guaranteed us a playoff spot, and so it

699
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,599
was a big one. That was kind of the highlight

700
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,119
of the three games. Family came into town to watch,

701
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:31,839
so it was a lot of.

702
00:32:31,839 --> 00:32:33,039
Speaker 5: Fun love that.

703
00:32:33,119 --> 00:32:36,319
Speaker 4: Man, Well, everyone thinks that a former b YU rate

704
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,880
NFL that you know, second round draft pick, et cetera,

705
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,000
they win every single game that they coach in and

706
00:32:44,039 --> 00:32:45,680
that that's not that's not accurate.

707
00:32:45,759 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 5: That's what I thought.

708
00:32:48,839 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, this is completely not accurate. I think

709
00:32:51,759 --> 00:32:55,599
one of the toughest things is, here's one of the

710
00:32:55,599 --> 00:32:59,880
toughest things when you coach the very youngest kids. You

711
00:33:00,319 --> 00:33:04,559
can see everything that will work, but it's it's like,

712
00:33:04,599 --> 00:33:07,279
it doesn't matter what you know football wise. It doesn't

713
00:33:07,279 --> 00:33:09,640
matter what you could scheme up or any of that

714
00:33:09,839 --> 00:33:13,160
like that goes out the door. It matters what those

715
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,720
kids can do, what they understand. You know, you need

716
00:33:16,759 --> 00:33:18,319
to have Dennis Pitta on the show and see what

717
00:33:18,359 --> 00:33:21,240
he's going through his team. I mean, I think they've

718
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,640
only won one or two games, and it's just you

719
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,119
can know all the football that you want, but it's

720
00:33:26,119 --> 00:33:28,839
about who you have on your team, their capabilities and

721
00:33:28,839 --> 00:33:31,680
what they understand. And quite honestly, you could have a

722
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,799
coach that doesn't know that much football, but if he's

723
00:33:33,839 --> 00:33:37,400
got guys that can outplay your guys, he can keep

724
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,440
it very simple and win the football game. And so

725
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:43,440
where I feel like my experience comes into play is

726
00:33:44,559 --> 00:33:47,279
when we face teams that are evenly matched or we're

727
00:33:47,319 --> 00:33:51,119
slightly below. Where can I, through coaching the kids throughout

728
00:33:51,119 --> 00:33:53,880
the week and throughout the season, give us a little

729
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,920
bit of a schematic advantage where now we can play

730
00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:00,359
a little bit above our actual level and heat with

731
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,519
some of the teams that maybe if it was just

732
00:34:02,559 --> 00:34:04,519
straight up we wouldn't get a chance to compete with.

733
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,480
And then I really try to do a good job

734
00:34:06,519 --> 00:34:10,440
of just overall throughout the year, building the kids understanding

735
00:34:10,599 --> 00:34:13,800
of what sports is really like and how it relates

736
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,360
to life like ups and downs, challenges. Sometimes you're having

737
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,119
a great run, sometimes you get your freaking butt kicked.

738
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:24,400
Sometimes things work out for you, and other times you

739
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,159
can't seem to get anything to work. And just building

740
00:34:27,159 --> 00:34:31,719
their resilience, building their belief, building also a better relationship

741
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:35,320
with losing and not having them compare of like, well,

742
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,079
this team lost to this team and we should beat

743
00:34:37,119 --> 00:34:38,679
that team. And if we lose to this team, then

744
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,840
that means we're not as good as this team. Like

745
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,000
all of that I'm trying to teach these kids just

746
00:34:43,079 --> 00:34:45,679
toss it out the window be the very very best

747
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,159
version of you you can be right now in this moment,

748
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,000
and then learn from it and then improve going forward.

749
00:34:51,039 --> 00:34:53,159
And I try to really just hone in on those

750
00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:55,320
things so that when the kids are older and they

751
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,079
face whatever challenges they're going to go through, whatever high

752
00:34:58,079 --> 00:35:00,960
schools they're going through, they're better for pared for him.

753
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 4: It brings up an interesting point, honestly, it segues into

754
00:35:04,559 --> 00:35:08,039
the topic that that is most intriguing to me right now,

755
00:35:08,079 --> 00:35:12,840
the national pun. It's many that even that that that

756
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,880
maybe contrives some of their their conclusions off of objective metrics.

757
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:22,159
They think BYU is not winning uh due to merit.

758
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:26,360
They're winning doing due to luck. They're finding a way

759
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:31,239
to win in different ways, be it special teams, creating turnovers,

760
00:35:31,559 --> 00:35:35,559
et cetera. And and I wanted to get your your

761
00:35:35,599 --> 00:35:39,719
perspective on how BYU is winning uh since arriving the

762
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,960
Big twelve. I remember in twenty twenty three we did discuss, hey,

763
00:35:43,039 --> 00:35:45,239
are are these wins? It was like BA was like

764
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,519
five and two at the time, and they were on

765
00:35:47,559 --> 00:35:49,599
the brink of getting Bowl eligible. It is like, are

766
00:35:49,639 --> 00:35:52,440
these are these these ways in which BO is winning?

767
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,320
Are they sustainable and they ended up not being sustainable.

768
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,039
And then BA had an eleven two season completely overachieving,

769
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,360
maybe versus their talent, maybe versus the hype, and they

770
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:03,159
found waste win.

771
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:04,760
Speaker 5: Once again, they're finding waste to win.

772
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,119
Speaker 4: And you have to wonder, Okay, is this just who

773
00:36:07,159 --> 00:36:11,000
BYU is is or is there some luck of associated

774
00:36:11,039 --> 00:36:15,239
with it that not all the analysts right now are

775
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,480
giving Bay you credit for Give me your perspective on this.

776
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,199
Speaker 3: Well, I think when you talk to football people like

777
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:26,280
toss the analysts out right, Like first off, analysts love

778
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:30,280
to create, right, whatever can cause a story. Are are

779
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:34,440
they really watching every snap of BYU football? I doubt it? Yeah, right,

780
00:36:34,519 --> 00:36:36,800
they probably are watching kid bits here and there. They're

781
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,519
probably calling somebody, hey, are you watching that football team

782
00:36:40,519 --> 00:36:42,239
over there in Provo? What do you think about them?

783
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,920
Give me your Most people aren't analyzing everything. They're trying

784
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:49,280
to gather information quickly so that they can say something

785
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,920
that grabs attention. That's the truth of it. If you

786
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,039
talk to football people, let's go back to that twenty

787
00:36:54,039 --> 00:36:58,679
twenty three year because I remember having conversations, you know,

788
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,519
with Keaton Slovas to to get Cleayton Keeton Slovis to

789
00:37:01,519 --> 00:37:04,519
BYU and what what it was believed that BYU was

790
00:37:04,559 --> 00:37:07,320
going to be able to do that year twenty twenty three,

791
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,800
things happened that nobody could have anticipated with the run game,

792
00:37:11,159 --> 00:37:13,440
the past protection. They're like, there were so many things,

793
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,000
and there were some changes made right, There were some

794
00:37:16,119 --> 00:37:19,559
changes made to the staff. Those changes were believed to

795
00:37:19,599 --> 00:37:21,920
have a great impact, which they did. You go to

796
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,519
BYU last season where people would say, hey, well you

797
00:37:24,559 --> 00:37:27,199
had this boa football team overachieved. If you talk to

798
00:37:27,199 --> 00:37:30,960
the football people, they had seen the foundation that was

799
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,679
being laid, and twenty twenty three was like this unique

800
00:37:34,679 --> 00:37:36,800
anomaly off. We didn't expect that. This is what was

801
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,000
out of our control, but we're going to get better

802
00:37:39,079 --> 00:37:42,400
because of it. And so those little tweaks kind of

803
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,599
catapulted BYU to a due place. If you got around

804
00:37:45,599 --> 00:37:48,199
the football people going into the twenty twenty four year,

805
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,239
could they have predicted that hard of a start. No,

806
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,039
But they all would have said, we know we are

807
00:37:54,039 --> 00:37:56,280
a very good football team. We know we're going to

808
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,079
be able to do a lot of things. And even

809
00:37:58,119 --> 00:38:02,039
in twenty twenty four, they were already saying twenty twenty

810
00:38:02,119 --> 00:38:05,280
five has the chance to be a really special team,

811
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,840
probably the best team that we've had in the last

812
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,559
decade plus. That's what the football people were saying, and

813
00:38:11,599 --> 00:38:13,920
so I think what you're seeing is you're seeing a

814
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,119
lot of years of hard work of building something. It's

815
00:38:17,159 --> 00:38:20,079
what you Why do they say build a program, because

816
00:38:20,119 --> 00:38:23,079
you do build towards something. You build a foundation, you

817
00:38:23,119 --> 00:38:25,599
grow upon that foundation. Then you bring in all of

818
00:38:25,639 --> 00:38:28,679
these parts. And in today's era, adding coaches with the

819
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:32,480
experience that they brought in absolutely helps. Getting to bring

820
00:38:32,519 --> 00:38:36,159
in a tight end coach that has the NFL experience

821
00:38:36,199 --> 00:38:38,400
that he has, you can see an impact the O

822
00:38:38,559 --> 00:38:40,199
line in a way that the O line is playing,

823
00:38:40,199 --> 00:38:42,719
you can see an impact. So you see all these

824
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,159
pieces come together. The football people have understood it for

825
00:38:46,199 --> 00:38:49,480
a long time. The non football people they're the ones

826
00:38:49,519 --> 00:38:51,639
that are going to have to find reasons for why

827
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,360
DOYU is winning. They don't want to just say, oh, man,

828
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,360
this is a really good football team. You win football

829
00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,960
games a lot of different ways. You're never going to

830
00:39:00,159 --> 00:39:01,960
be able to go out and dominate in thirty two

831
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,599
quarters on one side of the ball for all thirty

832
00:39:05,639 --> 00:39:08,599
two quarters. It is impossible. You just don't do it

833
00:39:08,639 --> 00:39:12,320
between field position. You know, the luck of calling good plays.

834
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,800
Sometimes plays look amazing. Sometimes you can make a good

835
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,719
play call based off of the off the study you've

836
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,480
done throughout the week, and it looks like absolute crap

837
00:39:21,519 --> 00:39:23,280
on game day and you're like, that was not how

838
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,559
we saw that playing out. I think that it's a

839
00:39:26,599 --> 00:39:31,719
testament to Killanne his staff, the players buying in the

840
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,119
belief that they've cultivated throughout the year so that when

841
00:39:35,159 --> 00:39:38,880
they face tough times they are becoming a good football

842
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,320
team by a phase, stands up and wins the game.

843
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,000
Like you look at this last game, was BAU playing

844
00:39:45,119 --> 00:39:47,960
bad football in the beginning though they weren't playing bad football,

845
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,800
but Iowa State was making some big plays and they

846
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,559
got him down and BYU was having a little bit

847
00:39:52,559 --> 00:39:55,519
of tough time offensively, but it wasn't bad football. And

848
00:39:55,519 --> 00:39:57,920
then all of a sudden boom, a turnover happens deep

849
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,400
in bus backed up and completely change the game. And

850
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,880
then what happens The offense gets an opportunity to go

851
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,199
down on a two minute drive, they score, and they

852
00:40:06,199 --> 00:40:08,719
get the ball right back and then they drive again.

853
00:40:09,119 --> 00:40:11,000
That's the mark of a good football team. You don't

854
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,880
have to knock a team and say, well, if they

855
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,039
were that good, they never should have been down. I

856
00:40:15,119 --> 00:40:18,280
truly believe the best football teams when things aren't going

857
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,000
their way, they find a way to come back when

858
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,719
they're down. And that's maybe what the outside of football

859
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,239
people don't understand that that is the mark of a

860
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:28,480
good team, not a lucky team.

861
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,559
Speaker 4: How much of this also has to do with the

862
00:40:31,599 --> 00:40:37,360
anomaly of special teams creating turnovers and also scoring touchdowns.

863
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 5: This year, it's creating turnovers.

864
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 4: They haven't really scored touchdowns, but they've also flipped fields

865
00:40:43,039 --> 00:40:45,400
and they've been able to you know, I think the

866
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,679
return game has been strong, and also their punt cover

867
00:40:48,119 --> 00:40:51,159
and kickoff cover has done a great job of limiting

868
00:40:51,159 --> 00:40:53,760
big plays. But more so than anything, they're creating turnovers

869
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,079
on special teams. We saw that in twenty twenty three,

870
00:40:56,119 --> 00:40:57,760
we've seen it in twenty twenty four, and we're seeing

871
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:58,880
in twenty twenty five.

872
00:41:00,559 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 3: Dude, it is huge when you can have special teams

873
00:41:04,039 --> 00:41:05,639
contribute in that way.

874
00:41:06,199 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 2: It is gigantic.

875
00:41:08,039 --> 00:41:09,800
Speaker 3: I think when you go back to some of the

876
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:14,000
metrics of last season and the punt return and kick

877
00:41:14,079 --> 00:41:18,480
return yards. I mean, that was a huge thing in

878
00:41:18,559 --> 00:41:22,519
field position for for BYU and in some really critical games.

879
00:41:22,519 --> 00:41:24,880
And you look at this last game the special teams

880
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,800
play where a very heads up play to push his

881
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,119
guy into the ball. I mean, and it came at

882
00:41:29,119 --> 00:41:32,480
a critical moment, Like all of those things are so big. Again,

883
00:41:32,519 --> 00:41:34,320
and I know you and I have said this for years,

884
00:41:35,079 --> 00:41:37,960
whenever you try to string together an undefeated regular season,

885
00:41:38,519 --> 00:41:42,880
you have to have some things happen in critical moments

886
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,960
that go your way. Like again, it is just impossible

887
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,400
to dominate every quarter. And there's going to be critical

888
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,159
parts in a game where you need a ball with

889
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,360
that that the opponent kicks hit the upright. You need

890
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,000
a punt to bounce off somebody and you recover it.

891
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,119
You need a tip the ball off of a defender's

892
00:42:02,159 --> 00:42:05,239
hands to landing your guys's hands for a completion like

893
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,360
I've just seen it. I've seen really good football teams

894
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,960
where hey, they have one or two losses in the

895
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:14,079
regular season because a few of those things didn't go

896
00:42:14,159 --> 00:42:16,679
their way. And whenever you go and you point towards

897
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:20,320
the undefeated teams a lot and I'm not talking about

898
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,639
the like the Ohio States that are sitting at the

899
00:42:22,679 --> 00:42:25,000
top of the entire season and they just go out

900
00:42:25,039 --> 00:42:27,000
and they run through everybody into the playoffs. I'm not

901
00:42:27,039 --> 00:42:30,039
talking about them. I'm talking about the teams right below

902
00:42:30,079 --> 00:42:33,360
them that are sitting at like six to twelve rankings

903
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,199
and they're stringing together undefeated seasons. They have to have

904
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:42,000
those plays in moments of games that turn things and

905
00:42:42,039 --> 00:42:44,079
it's just not all dominant And that's what I see.

906
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,519
That's quite honestly, what I see BYU doing. Like, yes,

907
00:42:47,639 --> 00:42:50,119
I know they've had to come back in a number

908
00:42:50,159 --> 00:42:53,239
of these games and win, But isn't that what people

909
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,360
say they want to know if their team can do,

910
00:42:56,119 --> 00:42:58,679
how does the team play when they're down. When you're

911
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,320
recruiting kids, I tell you what, you don't want to

912
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,559
just have a bunch of kids that have dominated everybody

913
00:43:03,639 --> 00:43:05,920
all through high school and have never been down in

914
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,920
games to be the makeup of your football team. That

915
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,519
team will fall apart in critical moments. You got to

916
00:43:11,639 --> 00:43:14,559
find some kids that have been in tough situations. They

917
00:43:14,599 --> 00:43:16,920
know how to pull together and make plays in critical

918
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,599
moments when they are down. And so that's where when

919
00:43:19,639 --> 00:43:21,519
I look at this bou football team. Is it a

920
00:43:21,559 --> 00:43:24,599
guarantee that they're going to be undefeated. No, but they

921
00:43:24,599 --> 00:43:27,159
should definitely have a resolve and a confidence and a

922
00:43:27,199 --> 00:43:30,119
faith right now that when they're down they can find

923
00:43:30,159 --> 00:43:32,119
a way to come back and win. And you know,

924
00:43:32,159 --> 00:43:34,320
we don't know the situations of these next few games.

925
00:43:34,519 --> 00:43:37,000
We don't know about LJ, We don't know about certain

926
00:43:37,039 --> 00:43:38,760
guys in the team, if we're going to be fully healthy.

927
00:43:39,199 --> 00:43:42,599
But Texas Tech, even though they've lost their quarterback, it's

928
00:43:42,639 --> 00:43:44,719
going to be a dog fight. You can go down

929
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,280
to other games and say it's going to be a dogfight,

930
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:48,599
going to be a dog fight, going to be a

931
00:43:48,599 --> 00:43:50,800
dogfight all the way to the finish. Are we going

932
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,480
to be winning every single quarter? Is Byu going to

933
00:43:53,559 --> 00:43:56,320
be up in every moment? Absolutely not. So we better

934
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,159
hope we have a makeup of kids that know how

935
00:43:58,159 --> 00:44:00,360
to come back from behind and right now, now that's

936
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,000
what they showed and I think that everybody should be

937
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,280
proud of that. And yes, the outside world is going

938
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,239
to point too, well, maybe they're not as good as

939
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:09,519
they think as people think they are, so be it.

940
00:44:10,639 --> 00:44:13,079
Let them think that, and then Uyu just focuses on

941
00:44:13,119 --> 00:44:14,039
doing what they're doing.

942
00:44:14,599 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 5: I've said this time and time again.

943
00:44:16,079 --> 00:44:19,239
Speaker 4: I was handing out my game balls for this game

944
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,639
versus Iowa State, and my first game ball actually went

945
00:44:21,679 --> 00:44:26,760
to Aaron Roderick for his play calling, for his ability

946
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:31,079
to scheme wide receivers open. People don't really realize that

947
00:44:31,079 --> 00:44:32,559
they want to give all the credit to the quarterback.

948
00:44:32,599 --> 00:44:35,639
I'm like, guys, these are schematic, like, these are linear,

949
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:40,199
schematic executions, and he's allowing Bear Bachmeier to make an

950
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:44,079
easy throw sometimes many times in this game, to go

951
00:44:44,119 --> 00:44:46,159
over three hundred yards because he didn't have a running

952
00:44:46,199 --> 00:44:48,199
back in this game. LJ went out in the first quarter,

953
00:44:48,639 --> 00:44:50,440
or you know, at the end of it, I believe,

954
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,119
and I just I felt like a Rod deserved this

955
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,880
game ball. Wanted to get your perspective on this because

956
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,800
there hasn't been a coordinator in BYU football history, minus

957
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,119
Doug Scolville who was only with us for like four

958
00:45:03,199 --> 00:45:07,079
years in the seventies, that has been applauded as being

959
00:45:07,119 --> 00:45:09,559
a good play caller. And I'm like, guys, like, we've

960
00:45:09,599 --> 00:45:13,480
had some great play callers per dollar spent in our

961
00:45:14,199 --> 00:45:18,519
illustrious history, and no one's been perfect. But a Rod

962
00:45:18,599 --> 00:45:21,679
deserves a bit of his flowers right now. In my opinion,

963
00:45:22,079 --> 00:45:24,480
all things considered one of the toughest schedules in boa

964
00:45:24,599 --> 00:45:27,760
football history with a true freshman quarterback. He lost his

965
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,840
retro freshman redshirt senior excuse me, and then he just

966
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,760
lost his running back in this game versus Iowa State.

967
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:35,119
Speaker 5: I think he needs some love.

968
00:45:37,079 --> 00:45:37,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

969
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,519
Speaker 3: You know what, Here's the thing that I really enjoy

970
00:45:39,599 --> 00:45:43,079
watching Aaron Rodgercks' schemes is he does such a good

971
00:45:43,199 --> 00:45:50,000
job of creating levels of throws that they mirror a

972
00:45:50,079 --> 00:45:53,239
concept that is a staple concept. And then what he

973
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:57,960
does is he creates through formations, through motions, different ways

974
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:03,360
to get to the same foundational type scheme. You know,

975
00:46:03,639 --> 00:46:05,280
it's kind of like what I said earlier in the

976
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,679
show talking about building a foundation, Like there are areas

977
00:46:08,679 --> 00:46:10,239
of the field that he does a great job of

978
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,239
attacking a variety of ways. But when you look at

979
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,239
where people get to on the field, it makes the

980
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:20,440
read simple for the quarterback because he has something to say, well,

981
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,960
that is a lot like this play. They're getting to

982
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,679
the same spots on the field. I can read it

983
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,079
the exact same way, We're just getting there a little differently.

984
00:46:28,559 --> 00:46:30,039
The o other thing that he does well is he

985
00:46:30,079 --> 00:46:32,360
creates really good stuff off run game. You look at

986
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:35,360
some of the actions that they have. They have such

987
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,760
a large variety of play actions that they use off

988
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,239
of their counter game, and he does a really good

989
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,280
job of also off of run game. I'm gonna have

990
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,880
quick hitters that I'm gonna utilize space and numbers. And

991
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,400
if we have space and numbers, the quarterback is gonna

992
00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:51,199
not choose the run. He's just gonna throw the ball

993
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,199
out on the edge. I think he's gonna have these

994
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:56,199
these mid level throws where people are based off of

995
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,760
the way that a defense reacts to the run. I

996
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,760
can now get people right behind in those windows. And

997
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,079
so you see Bear come off of a quick action

998
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,719
and he's going to drive a ball right behind those windows.

999
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,400
And then you see those even deeper shots off of

1000
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,760
actions that are hitting those throws, you know, sixteen to

1001
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,360
twenty two yards down the field. That's where he does

1002
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,719
a really good job in his game plans and those things.

1003
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,440
And you know, I'm always reminded of a conversation I

1004
00:47:20,519 --> 00:47:22,320
was having one time with Carson Palman. We were talking

1005
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:25,159
about play callers in the NFL, the job that it

1006
00:47:25,199 --> 00:47:27,559
is to be a play caller in the NFL, and

1007
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:31,239
the word that he used was offensive coordinator is such

1008
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:35,440
a thankless job. And it's so true because when your

1009
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:39,239
team scores points and does well, most of the time

1010
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,000
people just say, well, yeah, that's what he's supposed to do.

1011
00:47:41,079 --> 00:47:43,119
He's the offensive coordinator. He's supposed to go out there

1012
00:47:43,159 --> 00:47:45,679
and put points on the board, and they don't realize

1013
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:49,000
how much goes into getting those points on the board.

1014
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,639
Especially with some of the defensive schemes that people run.

1015
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,599
It is not always easy because you are a lot of

1016
00:47:54,639 --> 00:47:57,639
the times are calling what you are anticipating. But when

1017
00:47:57,679 --> 00:48:00,800
things don't go good, it is so easy to just

1018
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:04,679
point the finger terrible play calls. This guy sucks. And

1019
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:06,719
that's why it's so important to have a quarterback that

1020
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,639
can also see and understand what is trying to be

1021
00:48:09,639 --> 00:48:12,199
accomplished with the play call and get you in and

1022
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,000
out of the right things. And when it is bad

1023
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,440
or when it's not what you thought, you know what,

1024
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,320
Sometimes taking a sack is not a bad thing. Sometimes

1025
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:21,159
throwing a ball away is not a bad thing. Taking

1026
00:48:21,199 --> 00:48:23,320
the checkdown can be a great thing. And although it

1027
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,920
doesn't look pretty a coordinator that has somebody that can

1028
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,280
manage the decisions really really well. It helps the coordinator

1029
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,119
so much because when you get in situations where you

1030
00:48:34,159 --> 00:48:36,760
can't trust a quarterback to do that, you have to

1031
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:38,960
be careful with your play calls. You have to be

1032
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:42,199
careful that you're not talking him into throws by your

1033
00:48:42,199 --> 00:48:44,440
play call. And that's why we've seen it this year

1034
00:48:44,519 --> 00:48:49,159
like this is a very put together football team, very

1035
00:48:49,199 --> 00:48:51,960
put together, with a great understanding of the offense that

1036
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,280
these guys have been in one offense the entire time.

1037
00:48:54,639 --> 00:48:58,559
And you insert this young but very smart and good

1038
00:48:58,639 --> 00:49:02,000
decision maker and always bail us out with his legs,

1039
00:49:02,039 --> 00:49:04,880
and you put that together and things are working really

1040
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,320
really well. But Aaron Rodgers has done a good job

1041
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,960
of taking that foundation that he built with the players,

1042
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,519
recognizing what they can do bring in a young quarterback

1043
00:49:14,559 --> 00:49:16,719
and managing that and balancing it out so well. And

1044
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:20,239
that's the art of being a coordinator. It's not always

1045
00:49:20,639 --> 00:49:23,320
gonna just look great every single quarter. But he has

1046
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:37,840
done such a good job of in the things that

1047
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,000
he does of how creative it is. Because you don't

1048
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:41,599
get to back, You're like, you don't get to go

1049
00:49:41,679 --> 00:49:44,519
back and watch the full eleven on eleven view. You

1050
00:49:44,559 --> 00:49:46,760
don't get to see how something from week three or

1051
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,280
week four is utilized and how he knows what a

1052
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,480
defense is going to do, and how he's capitalizing off

1053
00:49:52,519 --> 00:49:54,800
of back week seven and eight. But he's done a

1054
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:55,400
good job of that.

1061
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:17,599

1066
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:28,280
Speaker 5: How would you assess.

1067
00:50:28,199 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 4: His performance in this game on the road in front

1068
00:50:31,039 --> 00:50:34,159
of sixty two thousand enemy Well, most of them were

1069
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,199
enemy fans, not not as many BIOI fans got tickets

1070
00:50:37,199 --> 00:50:39,719
to this game because Iowa State fans show up to

1071
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:44,719
Jack Trice Stadium and they never lose. They very rarely

1072
00:50:45,079 --> 00:50:47,360
lose at on their home field.

1073
00:50:47,639 --> 00:50:49,920
Speaker 5: What did you make of Bear Bachmeyer's performance.

1074
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,199
Speaker 3: I thought Bear had a super solid day. You know,

1075
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:56,760
playing those three three to five defenses, it's not easy

1076
00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:00,800
because they based off of their rule, they're going to

1077
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:06,440
get into looks that don't necessarily have defined coverage where

1078
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,000
you would say, oh that's cover two, Oh, that's cover four,

1079
00:51:09,079 --> 00:51:12,159
Oh that's cover six. Like a lot of the times

1080
00:51:12,679 --> 00:51:15,199
you're going back there, you're going through your reads and

1081
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:20,320
there is no defined coverage. They play very unique responsibilities

1082
00:51:20,559 --> 00:51:24,000
sometimes three three five defenses based off of motions and

1083
00:51:24,039 --> 00:51:27,400
different things. They can take themselves out of position. And

1084
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:31,559
so you actually saw some of BYU's big plays were

1085
00:51:31,679 --> 00:51:35,360
some busts by Iowa State and a really good job

1086
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:38,559
of Bear of recognizing them. That's the other thing that's

1087
00:51:38,599 --> 00:51:40,440
not easy to do as a young player. It's not

1088
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:43,920
easy to recognize, you know, when they bust and all

1089
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:46,760
of a sudden, your clear out go route that is

1090
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:48,880
literally there for what you call love of the game,

1091
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,639
he's just running defenders off all of a sudden, that

1092
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:55,280
guy's who's popping open and Bear finds Chase on the run,

1093
00:51:55,639 --> 00:51:59,239
and Chase is really the clear out there. So Bear

1094
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:03,039
does a really good job of staying within the offense,

1095
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,800
even some of his sacks. Like, I know it sounds

1096
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:09,239
funny to compliment a sack, but Bear took a couple

1097
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,000
of really good sacks, yeah, because there was nowhere to

1098
00:52:12,039 --> 00:52:18,159
go with the football and in time, Yeah he did, yeah,

1099
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:21,199
yeah he did. You know, young quarterbacks learn that when

1100
00:52:21,199 --> 00:52:23,119
you start getting knocked around, you learn how to sligh

1101
00:52:23,159 --> 00:52:28,000
real fast. But he did a really good job of just,

1102
00:52:28,199 --> 00:52:30,119
you know what, even though we're down right here, even

1103
00:52:30,119 --> 00:52:31,639
though it phil's like we're having a little bit of

1104
00:52:31,679 --> 00:52:34,480
a tough time getting things going, it's not worth it

1105
00:52:34,559 --> 00:52:37,239
right here to chance it. And the thing that's cool, too,

1106
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:43,480
is with Bear is like the demeanor of staying the

1107
00:52:43,559 --> 00:52:47,559
same guy despite the situation. I think that that, you know,

1108
00:52:47,639 --> 00:52:50,119
I'm going to go back to what I watched this

1109
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,360
kid do for three years in high school, whether it

1110
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:56,679
was our games or singing him on tape, like he

1111
00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:01,480
was involved in so many shootouts for seven to forty nine,

1112
00:53:01,639 --> 00:53:05,519
fifty two to fifty seven, thirty eight to forty one.

1113
00:53:06,679 --> 00:53:11,159
I think Bear literally has just been programmed to just

1114
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,199
be the same guy no matter what is going on,

1115
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,440
because that is just the game that he's had to

1116
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:19,719
play for so long. And so when I look at

1117
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,400
this game, like, yes, Iowa State, it felt like they

1118
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,800
had a ton of momentum. I mean, I was driving

1119
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:26,760
from one Pop Warner game to the next Pop Warner

1120
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,719
game with my phone on my car watching and Iowa

1121
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,920
States driving and I'm like, oh my gosh, like this

1122
00:53:33,079 --> 00:53:35,440
is the first half, and they if they put points

1123
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,960
on the board, especially a touchdown right here, this is

1124
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,039
going to be a huge gap that like, you know,

1125
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,119
I don't think anybody expected that. And then boom, the

1126
00:53:43,159 --> 00:53:45,920
interception happens, and then all of a sudden, you feel

1127
00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:48,480
this momentum shift. And then, like I said earlier, they

1128
00:53:48,519 --> 00:53:51,000
score before half, they get the ball coming out of half,

1129
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:55,119
they get the ball getting after the turnover on the punt,

1130
00:53:55,159 --> 00:53:59,000
like things start happening, and the same old bear just

1131
00:53:59,119 --> 00:54:02,000
keeps chipping a way right, and he runs around. He

1132
00:54:02,079 --> 00:54:03,800
finds guys, open you have other thing. He did a

1133
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:06,519
really good job of. He recognized when the other team

1134
00:54:06,559 --> 00:54:09,920
was in drop eight and he could feel, oh, they're

1135
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:12,760
only bringing three right here. That's a skill that like

1136
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:16,360
you have to develop over time. Most of time a

1137
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:20,039
young quarterback, you know, he'll he'll force certain balls and

1138
00:54:20,079 --> 00:54:22,400
then you'll watch tape and go, oh man, they're in

1139
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:24,480
drop eight right there. Like I really didn't need to

1140
00:54:24,519 --> 00:54:27,440
try to throw that on time in such a tight window.

1141
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:30,599
I can move a little bit, like you found him,

1142
00:54:30,679 --> 00:54:34,639
find Parker Kingston on the backside. It was a little

1143
00:54:34,679 --> 00:54:37,119
three by one front side, you have an option route

1144
00:54:37,119 --> 00:54:40,360
with a little rap incut and into the field backside

1145
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:43,360
concept you have a corner with two double unders. Well

1146
00:54:44,039 --> 00:54:46,880
the coverage, yeah, the coverage would not tell you to

1147
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:48,920
go backside. So he starts front side to the two

1148
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:51,719
receiver side. But he recognized that they were in a

1149
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,800
drop eight. And you see him just softly kind of

1150
00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:57,440
move and stay behind the line, and he brings his

1151
00:54:57,519 --> 00:55:00,079
eyes all the way back to the left sideline and

1152
00:55:00,519 --> 00:55:03,920
finds Parker Kingston sitting by himself. You know, like that

1153
00:55:04,039 --> 00:55:07,599
type of comfort. You know, there's like there's no panic,

1154
00:55:07,599 --> 00:55:10,480
there's no worry. He just he feels it out again.

1155
00:55:10,519 --> 00:55:14,559
I just go back to where he has loads of experience,

1156
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,440
like teams would do that all the time. Uh to

1157
00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:19,159
to his high school team they would drop eight, and

1158
00:55:19,199 --> 00:55:21,239
they would say, well, we don't want to bring pressure

1159
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:24,360
because I like, if we bring pressure and he sees

1160
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,679
the pressure well and understands where to go with the football,

1161
00:55:26,679 --> 00:55:28,679
he can gash us. The other thing is if we

1162
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:30,960
bring pressure and he takes off with his legs, he's

1163
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,719
gonna gash us. All right, so let's go ahead, let's

1164
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,280
drop eight. Well, if you have a patient quarterback that

1165
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:38,920
recognizes that they can sit back and as they move

1166
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:41,719
their eyes, they know defenders move. You know, he's just

1167
00:55:42,159 --> 00:55:45,119
he's playing in it like in a way where because

1168
00:55:45,159 --> 00:55:48,639
of his presence and because of his comfort level, even

1169
00:55:48,679 --> 00:55:50,960
if things don't go well for a little bit, he

1170
00:55:51,119 --> 00:55:54,199
just keeps chipping away, keeps chipping away. And he made

1171
00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:56,880
a comment I watched one of the interviews afterwards where

1172
00:55:57,280 --> 00:55:59,880
he said, he's one of eleven that is one of

1173
00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:02,639
the best mindsets that you can have as a quarterback.

1174
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:08,039
And that's why playing on good football teams always helps quarterbacks.

1175
00:56:08,639 --> 00:56:11,840
You know, the mind can, at times in highly competitive

1176
00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:14,599
people take you to a place where you feel like

1177
00:56:14,639 --> 00:56:18,320
you have to do more for your team because you

1178
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:21,119
so badly want to succeed, You so badly want to win,

1179
00:56:21,199 --> 00:56:23,719
you so badly want to play well, and so you

1180
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:27,519
start to feel not one of eleven. You start to

1181
00:56:27,599 --> 00:56:30,559
feel like everything falls on your shoulders and you got

1182
00:56:30,559 --> 00:56:34,079
to make it happen. And playing within the offense doesn't

1183
00:56:34,079 --> 00:56:36,119
always work for you, and so you try to do more.

1184
00:56:36,519 --> 00:56:40,239
And that's why sometimes you see on teams, tough football

1185
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,519
teams that are struggling to run the football, struggling to

1186
00:56:42,559 --> 00:56:46,400
get first downs. Sometimes the quarterbacks go through some struggles.

1187
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:48,960
And that's why meant that to be able to give

1188
00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:52,840
a young quarterback that feeling, which Byu has done because

1189
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,360
of going back to the foundation that the team has built,

1190
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:58,840
the staff, the players, what he got to get inserted into.

1191
00:56:59,119 --> 00:57:01,360
That is the best feeling you can give a young

1192
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:05,519
quarterback is you are one of eleven. Just do what

1193
00:57:05,559 --> 00:57:07,480
you need to do, don't try to do too much,

1194
00:57:07,519 --> 00:57:10,840
and just distribute the ball. This team around you can

1195
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:14,679
help you. And by that feeling, then you get to

1196
00:57:14,679 --> 00:57:17,679
watch the really cool things happen where then that player

1197
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:20,480
is doing so much to help the team and he's

1198
00:57:20,559 --> 00:57:22,679
made so many critical plays in good play for this

1199
00:57:22,679 --> 00:57:25,920
football team because of that awesome balance that he gets

1200
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:27,679
to live in and that space he gets to live

1201
00:57:27,679 --> 00:57:29,840
in And that's where you just have to tip your

1202
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:34,920
hat to the program as a whole, because the program

1203
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:38,440
has built this theme that is now moving forward and

1204
00:57:38,519 --> 00:57:41,719
also the experience of a young player. He's coming in

1205
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:45,280
very experienced and that experience has helped so much and

1206
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:48,599
you're getting to watch this really cool thing happen. A

1207
00:57:48,639 --> 00:57:50,960
thing popped up on my Instagram the other day of like,

1208
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:54,559
there's been four quarterbacks that have started off. For three

1209
00:57:54,639 --> 00:57:56,480
quarterbacks that started off, I think it was like seven

1210
00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:59,519
to zero, and right now there's been only three. And

1211
00:57:59,559 --> 00:58:05,639
it's Jalen Hurts, it's Trevor Lawrence, and it's Bear Bachmeyer. Well,

1212
00:58:05,679 --> 00:58:09,519
look at the schools you're talking Alabama in their heyday,

1213
00:58:09,599 --> 00:58:13,320
Clemson in their heyday, and by U just b YU

1214
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:15,880
is in such an awesome place right now. It's so

1215
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:16,800
cool to see.

1216
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:21,039
Speaker 4: Love that perspective, John. Last thing before we let you

1217
00:58:21,079 --> 00:58:24,559
go train three. DQB offers a plethora of services to

1218
00:58:24,679 --> 00:58:29,000
quarterbacks around the country. And it's not just you know,

1219
00:58:29,159 --> 00:58:33,280
training in person. You guys get into film work, you

1220
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:38,119
guys will take on essentially this telefootball health model, which

1221
00:58:38,199 --> 00:58:38,960
is pretty cool.

1222
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:40,159
Speaker 5: Explain a little bit.

1223
00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:43,599
Speaker 4: People can sign up for it on Training Train three

1224
00:58:43,679 --> 00:58:44,760
DQB dot com.

1225
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what's happening right now as well that

1226
00:58:48,079 --> 00:58:51,119
I should probably say is with high school playoffs being

1227
00:58:51,199 --> 00:58:54,039
right around the corner, you have some of these teams

1228
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,199
in different states that they are getting first round buys.

1229
00:58:58,679 --> 00:59:01,239
You know, the coaches give them a weekkend off after

1230
00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,480
you know, their final regular season game. We have a

1231
00:59:03,519 --> 00:59:06,079
lot of players saying, hey, you know they always give

1232
00:59:06,159 --> 00:59:09,320
us the Saturday Sunday off after our last game before

1233
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,280
we head into the playoffs. Can we come down? And

1234
00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:14,119
so we already have a lot of quarterbacks that are

1235
00:59:14,119 --> 00:59:16,559
setting up kind of that end of the year tune up,

1236
00:59:16,679 --> 00:59:19,119
end of regular season tune up. And people ask me

1237
00:59:19,159 --> 00:59:20,719
all the time, John, what is it you do for

1238
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:23,840
your pro guys, you know, in college guys during the season. Well,

1239
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,480
we watch all their tape. We're giving them feedback throughout

1240
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:29,559
the year. But then during bye weeks, me and my

1241
00:59:29,639 --> 00:59:32,360
partners were always on the road during bye weeks for

1242
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,920
tune ups, and people ask, well, how come these guys

1243
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,760
need me tune ups? Well, there isn't usually as much

1244
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:41,119
of an emphasis on mechanical efficiency throughout the course of

1245
00:59:41,119 --> 00:59:44,760
a season because everything is on scheme. Everything is on

1246
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:47,679
understanding what the defense is, giving coverage, game plan. You're

1247
00:59:47,719 --> 00:59:50,960
putting in so much time to the actual game that

1248
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:54,840
there's not really that that that I that is on mechanics,

1249
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:57,599
and so sometimes kind of like your cleat, you know,

1250
00:59:57,880 --> 00:59:59,280
gets a little loose and you got to come and

1251
00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:01,079
you got to tie it back to tighten it up.

1252
01:00:01,519 --> 01:00:03,440
That's the same thing that we do with quarterbacks. We

1253
01:00:03,639 --> 01:00:05,639
could go out during certain times of the year and

1254
01:00:05,679 --> 01:00:07,800
you get little tune ups, just a little fine tuning.

1255
01:00:08,199 --> 01:00:09,880
And so right now is a big time of year.

1256
01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:13,480
As high school football regular seasons are winding down, a

1257
01:00:13,559 --> 01:00:16,000
lot of guys are looking for that tune up before

1258
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:17,320
they head into playoff time.

1259
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:21,159
Speaker 4: John Beck, Ladies and gentlemen, John, always appreciate our time together.

01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:49,719
like Bear fatigue to me.

1322
01:02:50,159 --> 01:02:51,559
Speaker 7: Yeah, Bear fatigue.

1323
01:02:51,599 --> 01:02:54,920
Speaker 8: Bear has made the voters fatigue now because he's been

1324
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:57,679
so dominant. But at the end of the day, the

1325
01:02:57,760 --> 01:02:59,760
big two wild try anything they can been to make

1326
01:02:59,760 --> 01:03:02,719
sure that Byu is not nasty recognized. They don't want Brigham.

1327
01:03:03,039 --> 01:03:03,880
They don't want Brigham.

1328
01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:05,559
Speaker 5: They don't want Brigham. You don't think I don't think.

1329
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:06,679
Speaker 7: They want Brigham. They think about it.

1330
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:09,119
Speaker 8: Bear has had how many performances where you could have

1331
01:03:09,159 --> 01:03:11,679
been both the Big twelve Freshmen of the Week and

1332
01:03:11,719 --> 01:03:13,400
the Offensive Player of the Week where they just have

1333
01:03:13,559 --> 01:03:15,119
chosen not to give it to him. I find it

1334
01:03:15,159 --> 01:03:17,639
pretty interesting at the backup and that this Utah team

1335
01:03:17,719 --> 01:03:20,360
was running up the score on a bad Colorado team and.

1336
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:22,000
Speaker 7: They decide, Okay, well let's just do that.

1337
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:24,320
Speaker 8: So I don't know, at the end of the day,

1338
01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:28,079
it doesn't matter Bird whatever, fickle fickling fickle the award

1339
01:03:28,119 --> 01:03:30,559
over to Bear Bachmeier because Bear is gonna Bear's gonna

1340
01:03:30,559 --> 01:03:32,480
win the award. That's what's gonna happen at the end

1341
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:34,719
of the day. I'm telling you Bear's gonna have it.

1342
01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:36,440
When it's all said and done, they will have to

1343
01:03:36,519 --> 01:03:40,239
literally deliver the award in person, mail it, put a

1344
01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:41,519
statue however you want to do.

1345
01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:43,679
Speaker 7: His name is already engraved on it and they know

1346
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:44,639
it as we all know it.

1347
01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:45,159
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1348
01:03:45,639 --> 01:03:48,119
Speaker 4: I don't think Carl Rouder is a bad team. I

1349
01:03:48,159 --> 01:03:50,400
mean they beat Iowas State. It did at home twenty

1350
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,119
four to seventeen. They were competitor against TCU. They lost

1351
01:03:53,159 --> 01:03:55,000
a close one to Bway on their home field. It's

1352
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:58,519
about home and away to me. Yeah, and you just

1353
01:03:58,679 --> 01:04:02,039
have a home field advantage, especially in the Big twelve.

1354
01:04:02,079 --> 01:04:04,400
A lot of a lot of fans show up. It's similar.

1355
01:04:04,559 --> 01:04:08,559
It's a kin to the Big ten and the SEC crowds.

1356
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,039
And and that's why I was stayed was in this game.

1357
01:04:11,079 --> 01:04:13,800
I think Bway is a better football team. It's obvious

1358
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:15,880
to me that they're a better football team. But in

1359
01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:19,920
front of their home crowd, uh, it's it's a whole

1360
01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:24,079
lot more difficult. How many false starts, illegal procedures at

1361
01:04:24,119 --> 01:04:26,000
b what you have in front of that student section

1362
01:04:26,599 --> 01:04:30,000
of of of Jack Trice Stadium, they were like on

1363
01:04:30,079 --> 01:04:32,320
their own two yard line, two backed up.

1364
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:32,639
Speaker 3: It was.

1365
01:04:33,119 --> 01:04:36,360
Speaker 4: It was ugly, man, it looked very similar akin to

1366
01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:40,440
what the Rock does at our home field of Lavelle

1367
01:04:40,519 --> 01:04:43,840
Edwards Stadium. So I think I think Utah also has

1368
01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:48,039
a very very good home field advantage, which then begs

1369
01:04:48,119 --> 01:04:53,039
the question the form and fashion which Utah demolished Colorado.

1370
01:04:53,239 --> 01:04:55,320
You're gonna get a lot of our Utah fans saying,

1371
01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:58,000
look like you know, the rest were in on it,

1372
01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:01,039
and they had their home field, but on a neutral field,

1373
01:05:01,079 --> 01:05:04,760
we're taking it to the BYU Cougars. So you have

1374
01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,360
a lot of Utah fans right now, especially with Texas

1375
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:11,480
Tech having to start the third string quarterback, they're wondering,

1376
01:05:11,639 --> 01:05:14,960
they're praying, they're wishing, they're hoping that they meet up

1377
01:05:15,039 --> 01:05:18,840
with Brigham Young University in Arlington in the Big twelve

1378
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:23,519
championship game. Now, don't sleep on Houston, don't sleep on Cincinnati.

1379
01:05:23,639 --> 01:05:25,800
They're very much still in the race for this and

1380
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:29,840
so is Texas Tech. But anything can happen to the

1381
01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,239
Big Twelve, no doubt about it. A holy war in Arlington.

1382
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:33,760
Speaker 5: The two.

1383
01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:39,559
Speaker 8: Ridiculous Colorado. Colorado's not a bad team. Bad team by record,

1384
01:05:39,800 --> 01:05:41,400
they've been in every one of these ball games. Look,

1385
01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:44,400
you lose to Houston by sixteen, bin you lose its

1386
01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:46,559
TCU thirty five to twenty one. That game really doesn't

1387
01:05:46,599 --> 01:05:48,800
tell because up until five minutes it was a one

1388
01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:51,599
score game. Colorado was marching eight. It just didn't convert

1389
01:05:51,679 --> 01:05:54,440
the fourth down. So Colorado by record and shows that.

1390
01:05:54,559 --> 01:05:55,960
But I mean they still got opportunity to get be

1391
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:58,519
eligible three to five. People may say that's crazy, which

1392
01:05:58,599 --> 01:05:59,960
means they got to win three out of the last

1393
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:03,199
But check this out. Listen, this has been Arizona. They

1394
01:06:03,239 --> 01:06:05,880
get it home, that's possible. West Virginia on the road.

1395
01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:07,599
Westervignia is not a good football team. They haven't won

1396
01:06:07,639 --> 01:06:09,719
a game yet. Then you've got Arizona State at home

1397
01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:12,480
and then Kansas State on the road. So it's possible,

1398
01:06:12,599 --> 01:06:13,239
still possible.

1399
01:06:13,599 --> 01:06:16,079
Speaker 4: If b wing you and Utah meet in Arlington at

1400
01:06:16,559 --> 01:06:18,239
is it going to be an AT and T Stadium again?

1401
01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:20,440
Speaker 7: Yes, it's still there until twenty thirty one.

1402
01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:24,679
Speaker 4: Okay, so that's an eighty thousand seat stadium. Does it

1403
01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:26,960
sell out last year in a twelve championship?

1404
01:06:27,079 --> 01:06:27,400
Speaker 5: I did not.

1405
01:06:27,679 --> 01:06:31,000
Speaker 4: Fifty five thousand showed up. That's a good pool. In

1406
01:06:31,119 --> 01:06:34,760
a neutral state in Arizona State. RADEA, Yeah, you know

1407
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:39,400
what I mean. It's chilid so eighty thousand. I mean,

1408
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:41,039
I don't want to get ahead of myself. Put the

1409
01:06:41,119 --> 01:06:44,920
cart before the horse, but man, that would be tremendous.

1410
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:46,960
And Utah looks good. Utah is a good football team.

1411
01:06:47,039 --> 01:06:49,320
Utah is a good football program. Don't get a twisted.

1412
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:53,519
You put a goose egg up on your whole field

1413
01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:55,960
and you dominate in that form of fashion. Yeah, you've

1414
01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:58,400
ran it up, but still you did it. You were

1415
01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:01,960
able to perform at a high level. So I'm just saying, like,

1416
01:07:02,039 --> 01:07:04,320
don't sleep on the youth's either. They're a good football team.
