1
00:00:21,199 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: Two days gonna be the day that they're gonna throw

2
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,719
it back to you. By now you should have somehow

3
00:00:28,839 --> 00:00:34,280
realize what you gotta do. I don't believe that anybody

4
00:00:34,679 --> 00:00:37,119
feels the way I have to about you.

5
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 2: Now, Tigers turn talkers. This is off the bench.

6
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: Back be the wedd's on the street, that the fire.

7
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in Off the Bench segment two,

8
00:00:50,039 --> 00:00:54,600
Here an hour, one little oasis there. I think everybody

9
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:58,240
that's in college that wants to teach themselves guitars starts

10
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,600
with that song. I think I knew about six people

11
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,880
on the team that could pick up an acoustic guitar

12
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,319
in college and play that one. That was about it.

13
00:01:06,359 --> 00:01:10,280
That's as far as they got. So congrats to them.

14
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,319
And if you ever got past that song, cogress see

15
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,359
you as well. That showed real determination. If you were

16
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,719
that guy that wanted to impress chicks by playing acoustic guitar,

17
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,400
what did you play? You were? You were in the

18
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,799
middle school band? Was yeah, so I so when I

19
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,719
was in elementary I did I did piano, Okay that's

20
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,000
what it was, and then I know, but then I

21
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,680
played cello in middle school. So sixth seventh eighth grade

22
00:01:32,239 --> 00:01:34,359
cello player, all of the like. It was kind of

23
00:01:34,359 --> 00:01:37,319
crazy because like all the the guys on the football team,

24
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,040
we decided to play cello, you had to do something

25
00:01:39,079 --> 00:01:41,400
you had to do like home economics, you had to

26
00:01:41,439 --> 00:01:45,680
do band, you had to do orchestra, something else. I

27
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,439
think it was shop. We were like, wait, we could

28
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,640
do shop, Like no, we're gonna do orchestra. And so

29
00:01:50,719 --> 00:01:55,239
I was a cello player, not a big deal like

30
00:01:55,359 --> 00:01:58,680
yo yo ma, and not a I don't want to brag,

31
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,239
but I was also first chair thought a big deal,

32
00:02:02,319 --> 00:02:04,519
not every single year. Seventh grade that's when I was

33
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:09,919
really into it. First chair cello player cello.

34
00:02:10,599 --> 00:02:14,879
Speaker 4: Okay, better better cello player or better middle school football player.

35
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,759
Speaker 3: Cello player. Really So seventh grade that was my first

36
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,919
year to play quarterback ever Hubbard Huskies. Shout out to

37
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,319
them in Tyler, Texas. Yeah, a lot of Huskies. I

38
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,599
got beat out seventh grade year, so I didn't even

39
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,319
play in seventh grade year. So I was the backup

40
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,840
quarterback seventh grade and then I beat that guy on

41
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,680
eighth grade and so I did, but I think only

42
00:02:38,719 --> 00:02:42,280
through about three passes a game, So I wasn't that

43
00:02:42,439 --> 00:02:46,680
dynamic in eighth grade. It wasn't like Treeport evangel where

44
00:02:46,719 --> 00:02:48,879
I was like twenty years old in eighth grade and

45
00:02:48,879 --> 00:02:52,919
I was playing on the varsity. I was actually young

46
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,120
for my grade. I went to got the LSU was seventeen.

47
00:02:55,159 --> 00:02:56,520
So in eighth grade, I was I don't even know

48
00:02:56,599 --> 00:02:58,240
a guy. I'm not gonna do the math real quick,

49
00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:02,159
but yeah, I was. Yeah, the guy played with He

50
00:03:02,199 --> 00:03:03,919
was a He was a quarterback. He was my best

51
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,719
bud growing up. We were always on every team together,

52
00:03:05,759 --> 00:03:08,759
played every position, and so he let's see. And then

53
00:03:08,879 --> 00:03:11,120
got to high school. I was a quarterback for JV.

54
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,039
He was a freshman quarterback. Then he beat me out

55
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,840
on varsity sophomore year. It was a bloodbath, back and forth,

56
00:03:16,879 --> 00:03:18,639
back and forth. And he was a good player. He

57
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,000
played for the Cubs for a long time. He was

58
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,879
a hitting coach when they were when the World Series

59
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,520
got a World Series ring. So he's moderately successful. He

60
00:03:25,599 --> 00:03:31,960
was not really played baseball at Oklahoma State. No Mullet though,

61
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:34,639
didn't have the gandhy. He didn't have the gandy look.

62
00:03:35,039 --> 00:03:37,639
Did he last twenty years? And we've already laid Gundy

63
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,879
to rest this year. No he didn't last that. You

64
00:03:40,919 --> 00:03:43,280
know what, the mullet probably would have prolonged his career. Yeah,

65
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:51,400
it checks out. So Taylor, you were at the press conference.

66
00:03:51,439 --> 00:03:53,680
I say, a lot of news coming in. But before

67
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,199
we get to that news, I would like to get

68
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:57,120
this show started.

69
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: It's time to get glowing. Curtis. See of Go Flow

70
00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:04,680
IVY spa where hydration, vitamins and a summer ready glow

71
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,000
are always on SAP.

72
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,479
Speaker 3: Now for starters, all right, go to Go Flow iv

73
00:04:11,639 --> 00:04:15,280
SPA right there, Jefferson Highway, right nearby Cage. It is

74
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,000
obviously the absence of Jake means it is that time

75
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,920
of the season where sickness is running around. It's going

76
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,399
around all the schools. We've heard I fear rumors about

77
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,519
people all over the city. Something's happened, whether it's a stomach,

78
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,839
whether it's a little sniffly nosed. Well, make sure you

79
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,920
arm yourself with a strong immune system and go to

80
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,920
Go Flow. You can get that Myers cocktail. You can

81
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,040
get hydrated, you can get vitamins, vitamins I like to

82
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,399
call it vitamized with the vitamin B twelve's, the D,

83
00:04:41,639 --> 00:04:45,319
the zinc, the magnesium, everything, keep your immune system strong

84
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,879
to fight off anything that's going through the going through

85
00:04:47,879 --> 00:04:49,959
the house right now. And if you're already feeling under

86
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,959
the weather, perfect, go get those vitamins. Help you recover faster,

87
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,519
get stronger, get hydrated, get vitamized. Right there, go flow IV,

88
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,279
go flow IV dot. All right, Taylor, so you were

89
00:05:02,319 --> 00:05:04,360
at So there's a lot of news coming out right now.

90
00:05:04,519 --> 00:05:08,759
Frank Wilson took the podium yesterday talked, of course we

91
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,519
got argus all tomorrow and now we're kind of hearing

92
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,800
a little bit about a nagging injury for our guy Garrett.

93
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:16,600
That's why. Yeah.

94
00:05:16,639 --> 00:05:20,079
Speaker 4: So he said Garrett had a nagging injury that has reoccurred.

95
00:05:20,399 --> 00:05:21,959
So it was, you know, one of the ones that

96
00:05:21,959 --> 00:05:24,680
he had previously had. He said, Garrett's probable for the game,

97
00:05:25,199 --> 00:05:27,120
but it is something that is concerning. I mean, he

98
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,279
says he's probable, but concerning. It's something we need to

99
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:34,240
watch and monitor as we head into the game. He

100
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,319
was later asked in the press conference, you said reoccurring injury.

101
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,439
Is it the knee or the pateller tendon or is

102
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,000
it the oblique? He confirmed, it's the oblique. It's it's

103
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,360
in that ab area. You would talked about how hard

104
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,480
it is to throw the football, and like, I get it,

105
00:05:48,519 --> 00:05:50,639
Garrett had had the best year, but like I thought,

106
00:05:50,639 --> 00:05:53,079
he was actually even worse to start the year than

107
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,480
he has been. I mean, just because I mean, you

108
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,759
mentioned the entire throwing motion is going to be off

109
00:05:58,800 --> 00:05:59,680
with that oblique injury, and it.

110
00:05:59,639 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 3: Apparently yeah, and I don't think we know, Yeah, it's

111
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,360
no blaques, it's the left side is of the right side,

112
00:06:04,399 --> 00:06:07,920
because to me, I think the I'm trying to figure out,

113
00:06:07,959 --> 00:06:10,600
like which side would be anyway for like a guy

114
00:06:10,639 --> 00:06:14,040
that turns any anybody that's a swinger, So you're a

115
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,560
rotational type of athlete, so you're a kicker, you're a

116
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,800
baseball bat or a golf or a throw or anything

117
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,160
that's a rotational type of athlete. Anything in the abs

118
00:06:24,199 --> 00:06:26,319
in the ribs is like really tough to deal with,

119
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,959
and it creates a lot of mechanical flaws and mechanical issues.

120
00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:34,360
So everybody's been trying to pinpoint with Nuts, like, hey,

121
00:06:34,399 --> 00:06:38,040
what's the difference this year between the nuts We've seen

122
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,160
and we've known and we've trusted. And he's absolutely electric

123
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,720
all over the field, making making every throw making every read.

124
00:06:46,519 --> 00:06:48,879
And then the nust Meyer that has that we've seen

125
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,879
this year, who has not been as dynamic, has looked

126
00:06:51,879 --> 00:06:55,360
a little bit like he's pressing a lot. His mechanics

127
00:06:55,399 --> 00:06:57,240
have been the same, the throws haven't been the same,

128
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,759
And I think a lot of it goes back to

129
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,160
has to go back to this oblique injury. And because

130
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,560
there's if you're a golfer, you can kind of relate

131
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,560
to this, like if you play in the wind a lot,

132
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,720
you play in the wind, you have to change your

133
00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:13,839
swing right, and you have to change your swing to

134
00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:16,399
adapt to the wind. And then when it's not windy,

135
00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:19,560
there's a period of time where you have to like

136
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,800
unlearn what you just did in the wind. So there

137
00:07:24,079 --> 00:07:26,600
could be a situation where he had this injury and

138
00:07:26,639 --> 00:07:31,519
he was, whether subconsciously or consciously overcompensating for something, or

139
00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:33,839
his body was doing something different in his thumb motion

140
00:07:33,959 --> 00:07:37,399
to ease the pain so he could make a throw. Well,

141
00:07:37,879 --> 00:07:39,800
if you do that enough for a long and a

142
00:07:39,839 --> 00:07:42,199
period of time, muscle memory starts to set in and

143
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:47,079
mechanics happened. So like I sometimes I wondered throughout the year,

144
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,399
was I did his mechanics change a little bit, and

145
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,360
like I could go like a slow motion and look

146
00:07:52,399 --> 00:07:54,480
at it, but like I'm just talking about maybe not

147
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,199
from an arm standpoint, but from like a body weight standpoints.

148
00:07:57,279 --> 00:07:59,000
Is right hip getting through, is his right hip going

149
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,079
to the target. A lot of time he's throwing falling

150
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,639
away from the ball, falling away from his target this year,

151
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:06,879
and I got to believe a lot of that goes

152
00:08:06,959 --> 00:08:10,360
back to his abs or is oblique or whatever the

153
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,079
injury was of trying to take pressure off of that

154
00:08:14,079 --> 00:08:18,439
that situation. So from all accounts we've heard, well, when

155
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,839
you know, Brian Kelly was talking before he got he

156
00:08:20,879 --> 00:08:24,079
got relieved that he that that's why I was back.

157
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,720
He's not feeling it, he's it's not it's not an

158
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,759
issue anymore. But now we hear that the nagging injury

159
00:08:30,839 --> 00:08:33,600
has popped up, has crept back up, which is not

160
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:38,039
a great situation because, like you said, he has struggled

161
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,440
this season, and I think that a lot of those

162
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,240
physical struggles have turned into mental struggles. He is not

163
00:08:44,279 --> 00:08:46,320
reading the field like he did last year. Last year

164
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,159
he was reading all fifty three yards. This year he's

165
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,759
struggled with those reads. Now, the offensive game plan. The

166
00:08:52,799 --> 00:08:55,159
bones of this offense has not helped him at all

167
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,679
because it has been flat out bad. I think they've

168
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,279
tried to do some good things in all game, but

169
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,840
at the end of the day, there's a foundation set

170
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:08,440
with this offense that is flawed. It's flawed from the foundation,

171
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,639
from the bones. There's only so much lipstick you can

172
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,639
put on it right this moment, at this point in

173
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:17,720
the season. But to hear that, we got a little

174
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,039
bit of an oblique situation what we believe was kind

175
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:25,080
of the start of his the decline of his production

176
00:09:25,799 --> 00:09:27,840
is not a great situation. No, it's not.

177
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,759
Speaker 4: And like you've done a great job all year long

178
00:09:29,799 --> 00:09:31,679
of breaking down the Joe Sloane offense. And you know

179
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,159
what had been the question all year? Why aren't they

180
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,679
throwing the ball deep? Why aren't they throwing the ball

181
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,360
across the middle? And I totally get that, But you

182
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,600
and I were talking about it about a week ago,

183
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,799
like we saw this offense do it a year ago,

184
00:09:41,879 --> 00:09:44,639
Maybe nuts can't do it right now. And it's because

185
00:09:44,639 --> 00:09:48,480
of this oblique and you mentioned like it's the mental struggles.

186
00:09:48,519 --> 00:09:50,600
Now I see a quarterback just in MIFP. I mean,

187
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:51,799
you know you know a lot better than I do.

188
00:09:52,279 --> 00:09:55,039
Maybe doesn't trust this offensive line and also knows that

189
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,080
he can't throw the ball downfield. So like, what do

190
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,840
you actually do if you're Garrett and Ollsemart I've seen

191
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,559
people today or last night say, oh, well, this is

192
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,240
just the secret of binging for no Smyer, this is

193
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:06,279
just you know, putting them on.

194
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,879
Speaker 3: I don't think people realize a soft bench in there.

195
00:10:09,159 --> 00:10:10,519
Tyler Murray, I don't think that's.

196
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,759
Speaker 4: Right because people are gonna say, well, it doesn't matter

197
00:10:12,879 --> 00:10:15,320
Arkansas's defense is bad. Sure, their defense might be bad,

198
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,679
but like, let's not forget the fact that their offense.

199
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 3: Puts up a ton of points.

200
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 4: Right that Texas A and M team you struggled with,

201
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,240
Arkansas put up forty two points against them. Those a

202
00:10:23,279 --> 00:10:25,720
forty five forty two football game. You need all hens

203
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,679
on deck offensively, not because you can't move the ball

204
00:10:28,759 --> 00:10:30,679
up with them against your backups, but you're gonna have

205
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:31,799
to match them score for score.

206
00:10:32,159 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 3: Yeah you are. And like, even if an offense is

207
00:10:34,399 --> 00:10:36,559
in the SEC or a defense in the SEC is

208
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,720
not good, like productionized people put points on them, there's

209
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,799
still a defense in the SEC. They are still eleven

210
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,080
good athletes that are trying everything that they can. They're

211
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,200
coaches on the other sideline, they're doing everything it can

212
00:10:47,279 --> 00:10:50,120
to stop you. So you have to execute. And what

213
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,120
LSU has proven that they can't do consistently on offense

214
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:57,000
is execute. And it's not about necessarily about can you

215
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,159
win a one on one battle? Are you getting your

216
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,080
your tail whip by somebody that's just physically better than you.

217
00:11:02,159 --> 00:11:05,320
It's not always about that. It's about scheme. You have

218
00:11:05,399 --> 00:11:08,240
to get people open you're going against like Josh Hippel.

219
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,679
They put points against Arkisos. They barely beat Arkansas, but

220
00:11:10,759 --> 00:11:14,279
Joshipel is getting guys open everywhere. Schematically, they were winning

221
00:11:14,519 --> 00:11:17,080
that battle. And when I talk about the bones of

222
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:21,759
this offense that was developed by not by the people

223
00:11:21,799 --> 00:11:24,080
that are leading the offense. Now, the bones of this

224
00:11:24,159 --> 00:11:28,080
offense are very flawed just from a schematic x's and

225
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,759
no standpoints. So but they tried last game. They did

226
00:11:31,759 --> 00:11:33,799
some things that I really liked. They just so much

227
00:11:33,799 --> 00:11:35,240
you can do at this point of the season, there's

228
00:11:35,279 --> 00:11:37,480
so much. There's only so much that you can add in.

229
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,960
So I mean, we'll see you do have to execute.

230
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,039
Their offense is gonna score points. But luckily, they are

231
00:11:43,039 --> 00:11:44,720
going to be going against our best unit on this team,

232
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,159
which is the defense, which played really really well I

233
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,360
thought against Alabama, and they played really really well in

234
00:11:49,399 --> 00:11:52,360
spurts throughout this season. I expect them to play well.

235
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,879
I expect Blake Baker to have a great game plan.

236
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,919
But there's more repercussions about this Nustmyer injury that we

237
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,120
will get into on the other side of this break

238
00:12:01,159 --> 00:12:03,440
with Michael van Buren and what they gonna do about

239
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,320
his red shirt. I don't know. We'll talk about it

240
00:12:05,399 --> 00:12:07,240
right here when we come back on off the bench.

241
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:15,720
Off the bench, all right, Well, feel a little bit

242
00:12:15,759 --> 00:12:18,679
sad or a little bit excited about the game tomorrow.

243
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,639
There is no better time to grab a beer. And

244
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,799
when you do, make sure it's a dose Sexies, an

245
00:12:24,799 --> 00:12:29,320
ice cold, delicious Mexican lagger in that tall cold bottle,

246
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,000
maybe it's a tall cold can, whatever it is, and

247
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:33,279
you can actually get it here. You can get it

248
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,720
here at Else's, you can get here any of your

249
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,919
local beer stores, wherever you want to go. So when

250
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,960
you open the cooler on game day, you want one

251
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,399
thing that's an ice cold refreshment and nobody delivers it

252
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,399
like dough setis. They can get cold delicious Mexican laggers.

253
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,639
Make sure you get you a little lime, slice it up.

254
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,240
Can you feel it, Taylor? I can Yeah. After that,

255
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,759
I can feel it. I can say it. Look, we

256
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,039
live in South Louisiana. Let's not let's not try to

257
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,879
lie to anybody. We love a cold pop and we

258
00:13:01,399 --> 00:13:03,519
love a little bit of breakfast cold pop right before

259
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,679
a game at eleven forty five. Whatever it is. So

260
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,600
if you're gonna do it, make sure you do it responsibly. Tomorrow,

261
00:13:08,639 --> 00:13:10,879
and if you see us walking around campus, make sure

262
00:13:10,879 --> 00:13:12,279
you lift it up and give us a little do

263
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:16,559
sekies cheer. So drink responsibly. Get yourself some dough skies tomorrow,

264
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,919
get yourself a little koozy, keep it cold, keep that

265
00:13:19,039 --> 00:13:21,000
hand warm, go for dose. Drink responsible.

266
00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:45,399
Speaker 1: Two days gonna be the day that they're gonna throw

267
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,320
it back to you. And by now you should up

268
00:13:49,399 --> 00:13:54,240
somehow realize what you gotta do. I don't believe that

269
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,320
anybody feels the way I have to about you.

270
00:13:58,519 --> 00:14:04,919
Speaker 2: Now, Tigers, turn talkers, This is off the bench, back be.

271
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 1: The word is on the street.

272
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 3: That all right, welcome back in off the bench segment

273
00:14:11,039 --> 00:14:14,960
two Here an hour, one little oasis there. I think

274
00:14:15,039 --> 00:14:18,960
everybody that's in college that wants to teach themselves guitars

275
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:22,360
starts with that song. I think I knew about six

276
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,799
people on the team that could pick up an acoustic

277
00:14:24,799 --> 00:14:27,440
guitar in college and play that one. That was about it.

278
00:14:27,559 --> 00:14:30,799
That's as far as they got. So congrats to them.

279
00:14:31,519 --> 00:14:33,519
And if you ever got past that song, Congress see

280
00:14:33,519 --> 00:14:35,519
you as well. That showed real determination. If you were

281
00:14:35,679 --> 00:14:38,919
that guy that wanted to impress chicks by playing acoustic guitar.

282
00:14:39,039 --> 00:14:40,600
What did you play? You were? You were in the

283
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,080
middle school band? Yeah, so I so when I was

284
00:14:44,159 --> 00:14:48,000
in elementary I did I did piano, Okay, that's what

285
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:49,480
it was. And then I know, but then I played

286
00:14:49,519 --> 00:14:54,240
cello in middle school. So sixth seventh, eighth grade cello player.

287
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,159
All of Like it was kind of crazy because like

288
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,919
all the the guys on the football team, we decided

289
00:14:58,919 --> 00:15:00,320
to play cello. You had to do so something you

290
00:15:00,399 --> 00:15:03,000
had to do, like home economics, you had to do, band,

291
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:07,120
you had to do orchestra, something else. I think it

292
00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:09,039
was a shop and we're like, wait, we could do shop.

293
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,120
Like now we're gonna do orchestra. And so I was

294
00:15:12,159 --> 00:15:16,879
a cello player, not a big deal like yo yo

295
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,360
ma and not a I don't want to brag, but

296
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,559
I was also first chair, got a big deal, not

297
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,000
every single year. Seventh grade that's when I was really

298
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:32,360
into it. Uh, first chair cello player cello Okay.

299
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,919
Speaker 4: Better better cello player or better middle school football player.

300
00:15:37,759 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 3: Cello player? Really so seventh grade that was my first

301
00:15:41,039 --> 00:15:44,120
year to play quarterback ever Hubbard Huskies. Shout out to

302
00:15:44,159 --> 00:15:48,480
them in Tyler, Texas. Yeah, a lot of Huskies. I

303
00:15:48,559 --> 00:15:50,799
got beat out seventh grade year, so I didn't even

304
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,519
play in seventh grade year. So I was the backup

305
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:57,039
quarterback seventh grade. And then I beat that guy on

306
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,840
eighth grade and so I did, but I think only

307
00:16:00,039 --> 00:16:04,120
about three passes a game. So I wasn't that dynamic

308
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,960
in eighth grade. I wasn't like Shreeport evangel where I

309
00:16:08,039 --> 00:16:10,120
was like twenty years old in eighth grade and I

310
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:14,200
was playing on the varsity. I was actually young for

311
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,320
my grade. I went to got to LSU, was seventeen,

312
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,679
So in eighth grade I was I don't even know

313
00:16:17,799 --> 00:16:19,399
a guy. I'm not gonna do the math real quick,

314
00:16:19,639 --> 00:16:23,240
but yeah, I was. Yeah, the guy played with He

315
00:16:23,399 --> 00:16:25,080
was a he was a quarterback. He was my best

316
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:26,879
bud growing up. We were always on every team together,

317
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,919
played every position, and so he let's see. And then

318
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,320
we got to high school. I was a quarterback for JV.

319
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,240
He was a freshman quarterback. Then he beat me out

320
00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:38,000
on varsity sophomore year. It was a bloodbath, back and forth,

321
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,799
back and forth. And he was a good player. He

322
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:41,200
played for the Cubs for a long time. He was

323
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,039
a hitting coach when they were when the World Series

324
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,720
got a World Series ring. So he's moderately successful. He

325
00:16:46,799 --> 00:16:51,799
was not really played baseball at Oklahoma State. No, mullet, though,

326
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,840
you didn't have the Gandy. He didn't have the gandy. Look.

327
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,840
Did he last twenty years? And we've already laid Gundy

328
00:16:58,879 --> 00:17:02,039
to rest this year. No, it didn't last. That's you

329
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,480
know what. The Mullet probably would have prolonged his career. Yeah,

330
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:12,599
it checks out. So, Taylor, you were at the press conference.

331
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,880
I'll say a lot of news coming in. But before

332
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,359
we get to that news, I would like to get

333
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:18,279
this show started.

334
00:17:19,319 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 2: It's time to get glowing. Courtesy of go Flow Ivy,

335
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,200
spa where hydration vitamins and a summer ready glow are

336
00:17:26,279 --> 00:17:29,400
always on tap now for starters.

337
00:17:31,319 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 3: All right, go to go Flow IVY SPA right there,

338
00:17:34,039 --> 00:17:38,400
Jefferson Highway, right nearby Caage. It is obviously the absence

339
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,759
of Jake means it is that time of the season

340
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,920
where sickness is running around. It's going around all the schools.

341
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,640
We've heard I fear rumors about people all over the city.

342
00:17:48,079 --> 00:17:50,400
Something's happened, whether it's a stomach, whether it's a little

343
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,759
sniffly knows. Well, make sure you arm yourself with a

00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,160
get vis vitamins. I like to call it vitamized with

347
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,359
the vitamin B twelve's, the D the zinc, the magnesium, everything.

348

those vitamins. Help you recover faster, get stronger, get hydrated,

352
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,599
get vitaminized. Right there, go flow IVY, Go flowiv dot com.

353
00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:24,279
All right, Taylor, so you were at so there's a

354
00:18:24,279 --> 00:18:26,480
lot of news coming out right now. Frank Wilson took

355
00:18:26,519 --> 00:18:31,279
the podium yesterday, talked, of course we got Argus all tomorrow,

356
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,839
and now we're kind of hearing a little bit about

357
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,400
a nagging injury for our guy, Garrett Nesmier.

358
00:18:37,559 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

359
00:18:37,839 --> 00:18:41,279
Speaker 4: So he said Garrett had a nagging injury that has reoccurred.

360
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:43,119
So it was, you know, one of the ones that

361
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,839
he had previously had. He said, Garrett's probable for the game,

362
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,319
but it is something that is concerning. I mean, he

363
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,440
says he's probable, but concerning. It's something we need to

364
00:18:51,519 --> 00:18:55,400
watch and monitor as we head into the game. He

365
00:18:55,559 --> 00:18:58,440
was later asked in the press conference, you said reoccurring injury.

366
00:18:58,799 --> 00:19:01,640
Is it the knee or the pateller tendon or is

367
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,200
it the oblique? He confirmed it's the oblique. It's it's

368
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,519
in that ab area. You would talked about how hard

369
00:19:07,559 --> 00:19:09,680
it is to throw the football, and like, I get it,

370
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,799
Garrett had did the best year, but like I thought,

371
00:19:11,839 --> 00:19:14,279
he was actually even worse to start the year than

372
00:19:14,319 --> 00:19:16,680
he has been. I mean, just because I mean you

373
00:19:17,039 --> 00:19:19,920
mentioned the entire throwing motion is going to be off

374
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,519
with that oblique enginet it apparently back.

375
00:19:21,799 --> 00:19:23,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't think we know, Yeah, it's an

376
00:19:23,599 --> 00:19:25,559
obleaques it's the left side is of the right side,

377
00:19:25,599 --> 00:19:29,160
because to me, I think the I'm trying to figure out,

378
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,759
like which side would be anyway for like a guy

379
00:19:31,839 --> 00:19:35,200
that turns an anybody that's a swinger, So you're a

380
00:19:35,559 --> 00:19:38,680
rotational type of athlete, So you're a kicker, you're a

381
00:19:38,799 --> 00:19:42,000
baseball bat, or a golf or a throw or anything

382
00:19:42,039 --> 00:19:45,319
that's a rotational type of athlete. Anything in the abs

383
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,400
and the ribs is like really tough to deal with,

384
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,119
and it creates a lot of mechanical flaws and mechanical issues.

385
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,519
So everybody's been trying to pinpoint with Nuts, like, hey,

386
00:19:55,599 --> 00:19:59,240
what's the difference this year between the nuts we've seen

387
00:19:59,319 --> 00:20:03,359
and we've known and we've trusted. And he's absolutely electric

388
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,920
all over the field, making making every throw, making every reed.

389
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,480
And then the nustmyre that that we've seen this year,

390
00:20:10,519 --> 00:20:13,400
who has not been as dynamic, has looked a little

391
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,799
bit like he's pressing a lot. His mechanics have been

392
00:20:16,839 --> 00:20:19,599
the same, the throws haven't been the same. And I

393
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,720
think a lot of it goes back to has to

394
00:20:21,839 --> 00:20:27,319
go back to this oblique injury, and because there's if

395
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,960
you're a golfer, you can kind of relate to this,

396
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,160
Like if you play in the wind A lot you

397
00:20:31,279 --> 00:20:33,720
play in the wind, you have to change your swing right,

398
00:20:33,839 --> 00:20:35,519
and you have to change your swing to adapt to

399
00:20:35,599 --> 00:20:38,759
the wind. And then when it's not windy, there's a

400
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,960
period of time where you have to like unlearn what

401
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,599
you just did in the wind. So there could be

402
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,079
a situation where he had this injury and he was,

403
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:53,119
whether subconsciously or consciously, overcompensating for something, or his body

404
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,839
was doing something different in his thumb motion to ease

405
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,240
the pain so he could make a throw. Well, if

406
00:20:59,279 --> 00:21:01,599
you do that enough for along in a period of time,

407
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,519
muscle memory starts to set in and mechanics happened. So

408
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,480
like I I sometimes I wondered throughout the year, was

409
00:21:08,519 --> 00:21:11,799
I did his mechanics change a little bit? And like

410
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,759
I could go like a slow motion and look at it.

411
00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:15,920
But like I'm just talking about maybe not from an

412
00:21:16,039 --> 00:21:18,519
arm standpoint, but from like a body weight standpoints. His

413
00:21:18,599 --> 00:21:20,680
right hip getting through is right hip going to the target.

414
00:21:20,799 --> 00:21:23,079
A lot of times he's throwing falling away from the ball,

415
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,680
falling away from his target this year, and I gotta

416
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:29,920
believe a lot of that goes back to his abs

417
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,680
or his oblique or whatever the injury was, of trying

418
00:21:33,759 --> 00:21:37,400
to take pressure off of that that situation. So from

419
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,640
all accounts we've heard, well, when you know Brian Kelly

420
00:21:40,759 --> 00:21:43,640
was talking before he got he got relieved. Uh that

421
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,279
he that that's why I was back. He's not feeling it.

422
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,920
He's it's not a it's not an issue anymore. But

423
00:21:50,079 --> 00:21:52,880
now we hear that the nagging injury has popped up,

424
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,200
has crept back up, which is not a great situation because,

425
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,759
like you said, he has struggled this season, and I

426
00:22:00,839 --> 00:22:02,880
think that a lot of those physical struggles have turned

427
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,200
into mental struggles. He is not reading the field like

428
00:22:06,279 --> 00:22:08,160
he did last year. Last year he was reading all

429
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,680
fifty three yards. This year he's struggled with those reads. Now.

430
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:15,319
The offensive game plan, the bones of this offense has

431
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,680
not helped him at all because it has been flat

432
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,799
out bad. I think they've tried to do some good

433
00:22:20,799 --> 00:22:23,079
things in the last game, but at the end of

434
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,880
the day, there's a foundation set with this offense that

435
00:22:27,039 --> 00:22:30,319
is flawed. It's flawed from the foundation, from the bones.

436
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,240
There's only so much lipstick you can put on it

437
00:22:32,759 --> 00:22:34,519
right this moment, at this point in the season. But

438
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,200
to hear that we got a little bit of an

439
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:43,240
oblique situation what we believe was kind of the start

440
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:47,319
of his the decline of his production. Is not a

441
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,000
great situation. No it's not.

442
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 4: And like you've done a great job all year long

443
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,839
of bringing down the Joe Sloan offense. And you know

444
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,359
what had been the question all year? Why aren't they

445
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:56,880
throwing the ball deep? Why aren't they throwing the ball

446
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,519
across the middle? And I totally get that, but you

447
00:22:58,559 --> 00:23:00,759
and I were talking about it about a week ago,

448
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,960
Like we saw this offense do what a year ago.

449
00:23:03,079 --> 00:23:05,839
Maybe nuts can't do it right now, and it's because

450
00:23:05,839 --> 00:23:08,799
of this oblique and you mentioned like it's it's the

451
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,759
mental struggles. Now I see a quarterback just in my openion.

452
00:23:11,799 --> 00:23:12,960
You know, you know a lot better than I do,

453
00:23:13,279 --> 00:23:16,119
that maybe doesn't trust this offensive line and also knows

454
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:17,559
that he can't throw the ball downfield.

455
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,079
Speaker 3: So like, what do you actually do if you're Garrett?

456
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 4: And I'll smart, I've seen people today or last night say,

457
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,319
oh well, this is just the secret of benching for

458
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,480
no Smyer, this is just you know, putting them on.

459
00:23:27,759 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 3: I don't think people realize that the tyler.

460
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 4: I don't think that's right because people are gonna say, well,

461
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,039
it doesn't matter. Arkansas's defense is bad. Sure, their defense

462
00:23:36,079 --> 00:23:38,119
might be bad, but like, let's not forget the fact

463
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:39,880
that their offense puts up a ton of points. Right

464
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,640
that Texas A and M team you struggled with, Arkansas

465
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,680
put up forty two points against them those at forty

466
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,960
five forty two football game. You need all hands on

467
00:23:47,079 --> 00:23:50,039
deck offensively, not because you can't move the ball up

468
00:23:50,079 --> 00:23:51,920
with them against your backups, but you're gonna have to

469
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:52,960
match them score for score.

470
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 3: Yeah you are. And like, even if an offense is

471
00:23:55,599 --> 00:23:57,680
in the SEC or a defense in the SEC is

472
00:23:57,799 --> 00:24:00,920
not good, like productionalized people put pinings so on, there's

473
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,960
still a defense in the SEC. They are still eleven

474
00:24:04,039 --> 00:24:06,240
good athletes that are trying everything that they can. They're

475
00:24:06,319 --> 00:24:08,359
coaches on the other sideline, they're doing everything it can

476
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,240
to stop you. So you have to execute. And what

477
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,279
LSU has proven that they can't do consistently on offense

478
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,160
is execute. And it's not about necessarily about can you

479
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,279
win a one on one battle? Are you getting your

480
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,240
tail whipped by somebody that's just physically better than you.

481
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,519
It's not always about that. It's about scheme. You have

482
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,559
to get people open you're going against like Joshibel. They

483
00:24:29,599 --> 00:24:32,160
put points against Arkansas. They barely beat Arkansas, but Josh

484
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,440
Hipel is getting guys open everywhere. Schematically, they were winning

485
00:24:35,759 --> 00:24:38,240
that battle. And when I talk about the bones of

486
00:24:38,319 --> 00:24:42,960
this offense, that was developed by not by the people

487
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,240
that are leading the offense. Now, the bones of this

488
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:49,279
offense are very flawed just from a schematic x's and

489
00:24:49,319 --> 00:24:52,920
no standpoints. So but they tried last game. They did

490
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:54,960
some things that I really liked. They just so much

491
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:56,440
you can do at this point of the season, there's

492
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,640
so much. There's only so much that you can add in.

493
00:24:58,799 --> 00:25:01,160
So I mean, we'll see you do have to execute.

494
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,200
Their offense is gonna score points. But luckily they are

495
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,920
going to be going against our best unit on this team,

496
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,319
which is the defense, which played really really well I

497
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,519
thought against Alabama and that played really really well in

498
00:25:10,599 --> 00:25:13,519
spurts throughout this season. I expect them to play well.

499
00:25:13,759 --> 00:25:16,039
I expect Blake Baker to have a great game plan.

500
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,079
But there's more repercussions about this. Nustmyer injury that we

501
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,279
will get into on the other side of this break

502
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,400
with Michael van Buren and what they're going to do

503
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,440
about his red shirt. I don't know. We'll talk about

504
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,400
it right here when we come back on off the bench.

505
00:25:29,519 --> 00:25:36,880
Off the bench, all right, Well, feel a little bit

506
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,799
sad or a little bit excited about the game tomorrow.

507
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,839
There is no better time to grab a beer. And

508
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,960
when you do, make sure it's a dose SECI's an

509
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,480
ice cold delicious Mexican lagger in that tall cold bottle.

510
00:25:50,759 --> 00:25:53,160
Maybe it's a tall cold can, whatever it is, and

511
00:25:53,279 --> 00:25:54,480
you can actually get it here. You can get it

512
00:25:54,519 --> 00:25:55,759
here at else as you can get here any of

513
00:25:55,799 --> 00:25:57,880
your local beer stares wherever you want to go. So

514
00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,880
when you open the cooler on game day, you want

515
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,480
one thing that's an ic cold refreshment, and nobody delivers

516
00:26:03,519 --> 00:26:07,599
it like do Skis, the king of cold delicious Mexican loggers.

517
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,839
Make sure you get you a little lime. Slice it up.

518
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,440
Can you feel it, Taylor? I can, yeah, after that,

519
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:16,960
I can feel it. I can taste it. Look, we

520
00:26:17,039 --> 00:26:19,440

right now trying to tell Taylor to assert his dominance

558
00:28:21,279 --> 00:28:23,799
at the table by getting other hydration products put on

559
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,359
the table. I don't know. I would. I wouldn't do it.

560
00:28:26,519 --> 00:28:31,799
That's the way to get front kicked right there, your

561
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:33,759
roundhouse kicked to the face. While I'm wearing these pants.

562
00:28:35,839 --> 00:28:39,480
You know what movie that's from? You know, as many

563
00:28:39,519 --> 00:28:42,200
movies as I've seen. I don't go, are you serious?

564
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,079
The laundri you know what that's from?

565
00:28:44,839 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 2: What did you say?

566
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 3: What did you say? Do you want to get roundhouse

567
00:28:47,759 --> 00:28:49,119
kicked to the face while I'm wearing these pants?

568
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 5: Oh that's Napoleon dynamite.

569
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 3: That's a Napoleon dynamite.

570
00:28:51,319 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, So there was this whole thing. It's it's

571
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,799
an unpopular take on on my part. I don't like

572
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:03,119
Napoleon Dynamite at all. And actually you'll love this because

573
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,839
it involves the Green Bay Packers back when T Bob

574
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,920
was still on the show, uh two years ago. Remember

575
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,640
the Cowboys were like the number one or two seed

576
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,400
whatever it was, and I believe it or not, I'm

577
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,640
at they sucked in the playoff shocker okay, and they

578
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,160
were playing the upstar Green Bay Packers with Jordan Love

579
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,720
going on a tear and T Bob said, okay, well,

580
00:29:19,799 --> 00:29:22,920
since you don't like Napoleon Dynamite, if the Cowboys lose

581
00:29:23,039 --> 00:29:26,359
to the Packers, you have to dress like Napoleon Dynamite.

582
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,400
And I'll be damned. I showed up the word dressed

583
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,079
like Napoleon Dodnamite because the packers put a whooping.

584
00:29:30,759 --> 00:29:33,119
Speaker 3: All right on the Dallas Cowboys. So was it like

585
00:29:33,759 --> 00:29:35,160
Napoleon from like the dance scene.

586
00:29:35,359 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 4: So I ordered the white vote for Pedro shirt, the

587
00:29:38,079 --> 00:29:39,720
curly wig, and it came with like a cheap pair

588
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:40,359
of like glasses.

589
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,519
Speaker 3: All right, So you don't think that's Napoleon Dynamite's funny,

590
00:29:44,559 --> 00:29:46,519
So you're more of like a fart joke, kind of

591
00:29:46,599 --> 00:29:49,079
like far joke, only that situation on the far jo.

592
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,319
I don't know. It's just it's just not my vibe.

593
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:53,359
It's just one of those things that dry here and

594
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,319
explain it. It's just not my vibe. So you don't

595
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:59,519
like like the office, probably No, Victoria loves the office.

596
00:30:01,559 --> 00:30:03,640
Lundra didn't like the office either. I don't think Jake does.

597
00:30:03,839 --> 00:30:05,160
I think you're alone on the office.

598
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,079
Speaker 5: I don't dislike the office.

599
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 3: You don't. It's not my favorite. It's not my favorite. Okay,

600
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,440
all right, Yeah, I didn't mean to put that evil

601
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,400
on you. I thought i'd heard you say that. That's

602
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,359
on me. Ribs says she likes the office. I get it,

603
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,480
though it's a little slower, it's a little dryer. You gotta,

604
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,039
you know, gotta have some wit. Taylor gotta have a

605
00:30:22,039 --> 00:30:25,759
little whip. No fart jokes there, Okay, all right, So

606
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,640
we just got talking about you know, Taylor was at

607
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,000
there live at Frank Wilson's presser yesterday. We got the

608
00:30:32,079 --> 00:30:36,680
news about Garrettnusmeyer with the nagging injury on the on

609
00:30:36,799 --> 00:30:39,720
the oblique. But look, there's been a lot of talk.

610
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,759
We the plan was per Frank earlier in the week

611
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,880
that both quarterbacks gonna be planning for both quarterbacks to play. Now,

612
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:50,759
he didn't necessarily say, you know, dual quarterback system, but

613
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,759
he said there's going to be a planning place for

614
00:30:52,839 --> 00:30:56,880
both quarterbacks to play. Now, does that speed that timeline up?

615
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,680
There's some repercussions though with Van Buren. If Van Buren

616
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,599
decided it's like if they're like, all right, nuts, you

617
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,519
know what, offense hadn't been great, you're hurting a little bit,

618
00:31:05,759 --> 00:31:07,880
let's just give the keys over to Van Buren. But

619
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,079
there are some repercussions that aren't just gonna be up

620
00:31:11,119 --> 00:31:13,119
to Frank. I gotta feel like it's going to be

621
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,039
up to Van and that's of course the red shirt. Yeah,

622
00:31:15,119 --> 00:31:17,359
so take the Bowl game out of it. The Bowl

623
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,200
game does not count towards eligibility. He can play in

624
00:31:20,319 --> 00:31:24,160
one more regular season game with three remainers, like one play, yeah,

625
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,440
so I mean one one regular season game that would

626
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:28,279
be his four games.

627
00:31:28,359 --> 00:31:30,079
Speaker 4: That would burn his red shirt. So the question you

628
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,359
have to ask yourself is do you want Michael van

629
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:33,559
Buren to burn your red shirt?

630
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 3: Like obviously you want LSU.

631
00:31:35,319 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 4: To win every game, you want them to have the

632
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:37,240
best opportunity.

633
00:31:37,279 --> 00:31:38,799
Speaker 3: But I mean, let's call it like it is. This

634
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:39,720
is a lost season.

635
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:43,359
Speaker 4: It is you don't have a quarterback currently in the

636
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,359
twenty twenty six recruiting class because you were all in

637
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,000
on Bryce Underwood last year. Remember you missed on him.

638
00:31:48,039 --> 00:31:49,920
You actually had to scramble to go get a Michael

639
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,119
van Buren. I mean, you kind of paid a premium

640
00:31:52,119 --> 00:31:54,160
price for Michael Van Buren to be your backup quarterback

641
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,000
in the transfer portal, but because you needed somebody, I mean,

642
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,799
you had a seventeen year old Colin Hurley and Garrett Nosmyer.

643
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,000
That's all you had, right and then you don't have

644
00:32:02,079 --> 00:32:04,839
anybody committed in the upcoming classes of right now. So

645
00:32:05,359 --> 00:32:07,519
I mean, do you want to preserve that red shirt

646
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,359
if you possibly could, I would think yes. However, this

647
00:32:11,519 --> 00:32:12,400
throws a wrench in things.

648
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:17,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, so when you bring a guy like Michael van

649
00:32:17,839 --> 00:32:20,920
Buren in from another you bring him in in the

650
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,519
office and bring him through the portal, like, the conversation

651
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,079
has to be had at that point about the red shirt,

652
00:32:26,599 --> 00:32:29,279
like and what like here is what's gonna happen. If

653
00:32:29,319 --> 00:32:32,559
these things happen, We're going to burn your red shirt

654
00:32:32,599 --> 00:32:34,279
and are you okay with that? And I'm assuming the

655
00:32:34,359 --> 00:32:37,839
answer was probably yes, okay if but it was probably

656
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,599
yes with some conditions. Yeah, as long as it's not

657
00:32:40,799 --> 00:32:42,680
for like a play, as long as it's not a

658
00:32:42,839 --> 00:32:46,039
waste or like a you know, phone in and crap

659
00:32:46,119 --> 00:32:49,720
time or whatever it is. I guarantee you that there

660
00:32:49,839 --> 00:32:53,079
was never a conversation with him, is are you okay

661
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,960
burning it because our heisman hopeful quarterback isn't playing well

662
00:32:58,079 --> 00:32:59,599
enough and at the end of the year we're gonna

663
00:32:59,599 --> 00:33:02,279
have four and we're gonna see what you got. Yeah.

664
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,359
I don't think that was ever the situation.

665
00:33:05,079 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 2: So the.

666
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 3: Especially with the interim tag that Frank has, I don't

667
00:33:11,559 --> 00:33:14,160
think it can be up to him. No, it has

668
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:15,519
to be up to van Berry. It has to be

669
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,680
up to Van Buren. And now, at the end of

670
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,839
the day, they can make him play, I would assume,

671
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:22,920
but I just don't see that happening. But it has

672
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,079
to be up to Michael van Buren and his family

673
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,279
deciding what the best course of action for his career is.

674
00:33:28,359 --> 00:33:29,880
I mean because at some point, like these kids do,

675
00:33:30,319 --> 00:33:32,559
at some point have to be selfish, a little bit

676
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,839
like team first, team first, team first, then team first,

677
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,680
but then a little bit of selfish on knowing what

678
00:33:38,839 --> 00:33:42,240
your career is. And yes, it is a great opportunity.

679
00:33:42,279 --> 00:33:44,240
If they just said Van Buren, you're gonna be the

680
00:33:44,279 --> 00:33:46,079
start of the rest of the season, I think that's

681
00:33:46,119 --> 00:33:49,039
absolutely yeah, let's burn that thing. Let's go yeah for sure.

682
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 4: Or hey, we're gonna play you in one more game,

683
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,240
but you're gonna start the entire Western Kentucky game.

684
00:33:54,279 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 3: We want to see what we have in you. We

685
00:33:55,519 --> 00:33:56,720
hear that all the time with Tyler Shock.

686
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:58,759
Speaker 4: You gotta see what you got, But like with Van Buren, yeah,

687
00:33:58,839 --> 00:34:00,640
it's actually a little bit more true because you need

688
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,960
to know is your starring quarterback in twenty twenty six

689
00:34:03,039 --> 00:34:05,000
currently on the roster. Some people will say Yeah, a

690
00:34:05,039 --> 00:34:08,960
lot of people will say no, but like you mentioned,

691
00:34:09,119 --> 00:34:11,559
sometimes you do have to be selfish. People forget about this.

692
00:34:11,679 --> 00:34:15,039
Garrett Nosmar was when his first year here, Brian Kelly

693
00:34:15,159 --> 00:34:17,880
got the job. In that Texas Bowl, John Trey Kirkland

694
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,400
started a quarterback. It was because at that time he

695
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,760
doesn't anymore. But at that time that would have burned

696
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,920
dereckt Osmar's red shirt and he did not want to

697
00:34:26,039 --> 00:34:27,920
do that. Now, you know, there was a little bit

698
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,239
of pushback on it, but I mean, now, Matt, at

699
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,360
the beginning of the season, everybody was really really happy

700
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,360
that Garrett Olsmar didn't burn that red shirt. And he

701
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,480
was out of eligibility a year ago. So like we've

702
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,199
we've seen that happen right here before.

703
00:34:39,559 --> 00:34:39,679
Speaker 3: Right.

704
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,119
Speaker 4: I don't think Van Buren does that because you do

705
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:42,840
have Yeah, but.

706
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:44,639
Speaker 3: It was also a de social left. Yeah, that was

707
00:34:44,679 --> 00:34:47,480
also a decision that was based on the future bat

708
00:34:47,519 --> 00:34:50,760
head coach and what they were doing. Like Frank Stong

709
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:54,800
could be that full time. I mean, let's not say never, never, whatever,

710
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,159
but we don't believe. We don't believe that Frank's so

711
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,920
he's not making a decision based on his future success

712
00:35:01,079 --> 00:35:04,960
as the head coach. Right, So anyway, there's there's just

713
00:35:05,079 --> 00:35:08,360
a lot going on with this decision. And I don't

714
00:35:08,599 --> 00:35:11,239
dye anybody having to make this decision. I don't envy

715
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,000
Frank Kevin, do you know, try to make the decision

716
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,159
about Garrett Nesmeyer and about you know, the offense does

717
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,360
like you made a decision last game to pull him,

718
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,039
and it was the right decision at that time. Now

719
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,320
now you got to decide what's what's going to happen next.

720
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,760
And we've already heard and I think I think a

721
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,519
one hundred actually just texted us. He said on the

722
00:35:32,599 --> 00:35:34,400
show last night. Frank said on the show, I said

723
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,639
that the decision of who is going to start will

724
00:35:36,639 --> 00:35:38,679
be made in warm ups. Launder, can you jump on

725
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,679
here and kind of give us a little clarity on that.

726
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, So they asked Frank during the show last night,

727
00:35:44,679 --> 00:35:47,920
Well Chris did, and he said basically the same thing.

728
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,159
It's a nagging injury. They gave him a pitch count

729
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:54,239
during practice yesterday and I don't think they practiced today,

730
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,719
but they gave They've been giving him a pitch count

731
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,559
at practice and they're just going to see how he

732
00:35:59,639 --> 00:36:02,480
feels during warm ups, and he didn't have like a

733
00:36:02,599 --> 00:36:06,039
definitive answer over who was going to start, but they

734
00:36:06,119 --> 00:36:10,800
did ask him about like a dual quarterback system, and

735
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,400
he says that that's not really what they're trying to

736
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,079
do because of what you said, because it's hard to

737
00:36:15,119 --> 00:36:18,159
get a quarterback like into rhythm, especially if you're switching

738
00:36:18,199 --> 00:36:19,400
them in and out and stuff like that.

739
00:36:19,599 --> 00:36:26,559
Speaker 3: So it was basically that, yeah, that's interesting. It's a

740
00:36:27,199 --> 00:36:30,280
I guess you're saying. That kind of tells me, just

741
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,119
like hearing this for the first time, really this kind

742
00:36:32,159 --> 00:36:35,519
of tells me that the plan is to play Garrett

743
00:36:36,679 --> 00:36:39,719
unless he can't unless he can and then at that point, that's.

744
00:36:39,599 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 4: A drastic change from what he said on Monday. Now

745
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,760
I get this injury. I mean in the press coverage

746
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,079
yesterday he said this popped up two day so this

747
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,039
was a Thursday injury. On Monday, I mean a lot

748
00:36:49,079 --> 00:36:51,000
of people were criticizing them, and he came out and said, yeah,

749
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:52,400
we're really not going to change anything. I mean, we

750
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:54,679
might play two quarterbacks, but Garrett's the starter. He's gonna

751
00:36:54,679 --> 00:36:56,599
get all the first team reps in practice.

752
00:36:56,639 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 3: I mean, that is a drastic change.

753
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,039
Speaker 4: Like last night, he was saying at the press conference

754
00:37:01,119 --> 00:37:03,239
with saying, you know, he's probable, but it's concerning, I

755
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:04,800
mean not right there. What he said at the coaches

756
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:08,000
show sounds like this is questionable for the game time decision.

757
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 3: Right, And it might be one of those situations where, hey,

758
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,800
there's a plan to play both these guys. We're assuming

759
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:17,000
Garrett's Garrett's healthy, right, this is probably the beginning of

760
00:37:17,039 --> 00:37:19,920
the week, So plan to play Garrett and both guys.

761
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,159
But we're not playing the best defense in the SEC.

762
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,360
So Garrett's coming out and we're moving the ball. Let's

763
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,519
keep Michael Van Buren's sideline. Maybe play in the Western Kentucky.

764
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,039
There's so many scenarios that we could play out. In

765
00:37:31,119 --> 00:37:32,880
all honesty, we don't know what's happened. All we can

766
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,800
try is read the tea leaves here, but we do

767
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,880
know there are big repercussions. There are big decisions to

768
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,800
be made because of this red shirt hanging over everybody's head,

769
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:46,320
and of course this nagging oblique injury and the poor

770
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,480
play of the LSU offense to this point with Garrett

771
00:37:49,519 --> 00:37:52,519
and Mesmer, you know, taking the helm and leading. So

772
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,840
we'll see it'll be so fascinating to watch. We'll see,

773
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,039
I guess we'll all the way up to warm up tomorrow.

774
00:37:59,119 --> 00:38:01,920
We'll see what's going to be, what's going on. So anyway,

775
00:38:02,039 --> 00:38:04,000
I hope that I hope that Nuss is fine. I

776
00:38:04,039 --> 00:38:05,840
hope that he goes out and plays great. But if not,

777
00:38:06,159 --> 00:38:08,079
I hope that Van Buren steps in there and shows

778
00:38:08,159 --> 00:38:10,360
that he was that that guy that we hope that

779
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,440
he is. A backup quarterback is always the most popular

780
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,519
guy in town. And it's never been more true than

781
00:38:15,559 --> 00:38:18,599
it is right now. So we'll see. It'll be be

782
00:38:18,679 --> 00:38:20,480
crazy to watch, it'll be fun to watch, and hopefully,

783
00:38:20,559 --> 00:38:22,239
I don't care what happens. I hope we beat the

784
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,920
Brakes off Arkansas tomorrow. We beat him byt fifty. Yet

785
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:27,599
to meet him by fifty, we got to score more

786
00:38:27,639 --> 00:38:28,079
than twenty five.

787
00:38:28,199 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, ja, I think Jake said this yesterday,

788
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:31,880
it'll beat him up fifty up to score fifty.

789
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:33,320
Speaker 3: I don't see that happening.

790
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,119
Speaker 4: I think it would take you what y'all, y'all mapped

791
00:38:35,119 --> 00:38:37,679
it out yesterday June a half games to get to fifties.

792
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,360
I don't think that's going to happen. But look, remember

793
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,800
the big kind of knock on Blake Baker. So far

794
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:45,840
since he's been here at LSU, people will say, okay, well,

795
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,920
he has troubles stopping dual threat quarterbacks. Tayling Green was

796
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:50,800
a little bit banged up coming into the game last year,

797
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,840
but they shut down Taylor Green in Fayetteville last year. So,

798
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,280
like I understand that he's kind of struggled with that

799
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,519
mobile quarterback. He figured out Taylor Green a year ago.

800
00:38:59,599 --> 00:39:02,000
So this is another one of those games of your defense.

801
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,199
Speaker 3: Keep you in it. Yep, we'll see well, and Blake Baker,

802
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,400
we trust. All right, we're gonna go to break. We

803
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,679
will come back and wrap up our number one right

804
00:39:09,679 --> 00:39:15,719
here on off the bench, off the bench, all right, Well,

805
00:39:16,679 --> 00:39:19,159
get Gordon. It is that time of the year we

806
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,960
start seeing a lot of the all the charity work

807
00:39:22,039 --> 00:39:24,880
that Gordon mccurney likes to do, all the bike giveaways,

808
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,119
everything that he does in the community from all over

809
00:39:27,199 --> 00:39:30,119
the state of Louisiana. We've seen it. We've seen the billboards.

810
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,199
We've seen what he does with the g team here

811
00:39:32,199 --> 00:39:34,880
at LSU, all the great work he does with the athletes. Hey,

812
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:36,440
you know you see the billboards too, and it's a

813
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,039
lot of its humor, a lot of it's funny, just

814
00:39:38,079 --> 00:39:40,239
to kind of drive awareness of what they do. But

815
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,360
at the heart of everything, Gordon mccurne injury attorneys. They

816
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:47,320
are here to fight for Louisiana's all over the state.

817
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,679
It doesn't matter where you are. So wherever you are

818
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,639
in the state, northwest, southeast, southwest, middle of the state,

819
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,559
it doesn't matter. It's gonna be your area code followed

820
00:39:56,599 --> 00:39:59,400
about eight eight eight eight eight eight eight to get Gordon.

00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,920
Speaker 2: From the locker room to the airwaves. Gets off the

832
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,400
bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.

833
00:40:55,639 --> 00:40:57,599
Speaker 3: HII, welcome back in off the bench. We're going to

834
00:40:57,679 --> 00:41:01,199
close out our number one right here live from Ralse's.

835
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,320
I first want to tell you about Gulf Coast Office Products.

836
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:09,079
Louisiana is leading copier and printer source right here in Louisiana. Yeah,

837
00:41:09,079 --> 00:41:11,840
they ship copiers, they share, they shift printers all over

838
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,320
the country. But at the heart of it, they are

839
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:17,239
right here four offices in Louisiana. The best customer service around.

840
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,000
So if you work in an office, if you have

841
00:41:19,199 --> 00:41:21,960
an office, whether it's a hospital, whether it's a one

842
00:41:22,079 --> 00:41:24,119
hundred person office, or whether it's just a one person

843
00:41:24,199 --> 00:41:26,840
office right above your garage, make sure you call Golf

844
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,880
Coast Office Products or go see them at gcop net

845
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,880
dot com so they can make your office work more efficiently.

846
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:39,199
Gulf Coast Office Products. All right, Taylor, So how's you basketball?

847
00:41:40,679 --> 00:41:43,960
We basketball school. We're three and o Matt, not, no

848
00:41:44,159 --> 00:41:46,159
big deal. Can't be any better than that. That must

849
00:41:46,159 --> 00:41:49,519
be against pretty good teams too, not the cream of

850
00:41:49,559 --> 00:41:51,800
the crowd. But I mean, look, they played Florida International

851
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,280
last night. You nobody's gonna say, Okay, yeah, it's Florida International.

852
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,480
You've played you at No you're hydrated team though, Okay,

853
00:41:56,559 --> 00:41:59,360
Well there you go. You played Tarleton State.

854
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,039
Speaker 4: I always look at it though, when you're not at

855
00:42:03,119 --> 00:42:05,000
your best, can you still find a way to pull

856
00:42:05,039 --> 00:42:06,840
out a win. I think games like that make you

857
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,599
a better team. And that's what they did last night

858
00:42:08,679 --> 00:42:11,519
because you know, they only gave up fifty five fifty

859
00:42:11,559 --> 00:42:13,880
six points to uin O. They held Tarlton State to

860
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,480
sixty points, so their defense has been really good. Florida

861
00:42:16,519 --> 00:42:19,320
International scored eighty one points against this team last night

862
00:42:19,639 --> 00:42:21,880
and LSU really kind of had to pull away at

863
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,280
the end. It was kind of a kind of in

864
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:25,719
a dog fight with about you know, eight minutes seven

865
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:26,400
minutes to go in.

866
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,159
Speaker 3: That ball game, and they did just that.

867
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 4: I think that makes you a better team because when

868
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,119
you get an SEC play, these are the type of

869
00:42:32,119 --> 00:42:33,880
games you're gonna play. It's going to be tight down

870
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,159
the stretch. How can you respond? I mean, I think

871
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,360
Markel Sutton and Mike Nawoko, they're probably the two best

872
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,159
players on your team. You got a big in the middle,

873
00:42:41,159 --> 00:42:43,719
you got a wing. But you know you'll learn this

874
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,400
name as the season goes along. DJ Thomas. Keep an

875
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,360
eye on that guy because he's gonna be your point

876
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:51,480
guard and he's a true point guard. Matt McMahon teams

877
00:42:51,519 --> 00:42:53,679
at Murray State when they were the best, he had

878
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,519
a true dominant point guard. Now, last year Cam Carter

879
00:42:56,679 --> 00:42:58,159
was great, but he was more of a two guard

880
00:42:58,519 --> 00:43:00,840
than that pure one. I mean sold the Sweet sixteen

881
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:01,800
run with John Morant.

882
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:02,119
Speaker 3: I get it.

883
00:43:02,199 --> 00:43:04,840
Speaker 4: John Morants don't grow on trees. But there were multiple

884
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,400
years when you know he had that dominant point guard

885
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,679
that conditioned out to the shooters and unless you ha

886
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,840
shooters and DJ Thomas is finding him right now, So

887
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:14,880
like there's there's a lot to like with this team

888
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:16,920
early on. Now we'll see how they do an sec play,

889
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:18,679
but the early returns looked pretty good.

890
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,639
Speaker 3: DJ Thomas, DJ Tom White Guard, d Don Thomas. Did

891
00:43:22,639 --> 00:43:25,599
you remember that name? So? Were you in the house.

892
00:43:26,039 --> 00:43:27,880
I was not in the house. I was in my house.

893
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,079
You're in your house. That is a type of house.

894
00:43:30,159 --> 00:43:34,880
But was Pete Macrocken I would I would say no,

895
00:43:35,159 --> 00:43:38,360
strong to quite strong week to quite week. We're talking

896
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,679
about attendance with a comma in it, or attendants not

897
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,119
with the comm There might be a comma. I can't

898
00:43:44,159 --> 00:43:46,760
tell you how many numbers are behind that comma. Yeah,

899
00:43:47,159 --> 00:43:49,480
but look, it's still wild to me. That basketball is

900
00:43:49,519 --> 00:43:53,639
being played right now, Like I know, okay, basketball comes

901
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,840
third down here. People need to realize and you can

902
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,719
play yeah, basketball while football is being played. I still

903
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:01,679
feeling think it should be a December start time. It's

904
00:44:01,679 --> 00:44:03,320
still wild to me. You know, I have not follow

905
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:04,960
I don't follow basketball. I don't know if I watched

906
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:08,400
you dribble last year until the tournament. And I hate

907
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,760
to say that because now I you know, co hosts

908
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,519
a sports radio got to kind of get into it.

909
00:44:13,639 --> 00:44:15,360
You probably got to watch a few dribbles some more.

910
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:16,960
Maybe I'll be in the house and the PMAC a

911
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,800
few times this year. We'll see, but we'll be right back.
