Speaker 1: Off the Bench. We have to Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go where the.
Speaker 1: Plays get broken down, then science gets denied to.
Speaker 2: Come off the bitch.
Speaker 1: Hour two of Off the Bench Live from the Raising
Caines Studio.
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in our number two ot B.
Here live from the Raising Canes Studio. Jake Flynn, Elandre Tata,
all here with you.
Speaker 4: Matthew.
Speaker 3: You mentioned you're going skiing coming up in a couple
of days. Thankfully you've gone to reduce me medical because
that's going to make you feel like your youthful self.
And well before that, if you did that, you'd probably
fall right down the mountain. So reduce me medical, keep
you upright, keeping you feeling like your youthful self. There's
a lot of locations across Louisiana, some would say multiple.
Speaker 2: Oh thirteen. Really yeah, I think a lot.
Speaker 3: So if you're listening to us in Louisiana, the chances
are there's location that is convenient.
Speaker 5: For you, very convenient, okay, so that you can just
kind of walk right in, take some bloodwork, and then
you know, very soon after that you're feeling great, feeling
like your younger self, like you said, I'm going to skin.
I'm not gonna feel forty. Find down that mountain. I'm
gonna fill twenty twenty three tops and.
Speaker 3: Don't let a football get in your hands. Nobody in Breckenridge,
not one person.
Speaker 5: No doubt. I'll be throwing passes. The people riding up
the ski lifts. Go check out what you with me
medical dot Com.
Speaker 4: The best part about that is that sounds like something
you would love. That'd be great, wouldn't It would be
so fun?
Speaker 3: Hey you yeah, you you're ready to catch his bullet.
Speaker 5: That'd be so good. Just film it if you do it,
don't it. People don't passes. Some people going down the mountain, Yeah,
them right in between trees.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 4: That's thanks to producing me medical dot Com. Yeah all right.
Speaker 3: So one of the biggest stories certainly in college athletics
college football over the last couple of weeks and really
months following if old miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss was going
to get an extra year. The NCAA denied him six
times six but we we knew going to a court
in Mississippi, unless he just fell into a state fan,
he was gonna have a good chance. You go to
small town, Mississippi. There's a reason why they went to
small town, Mississippi, and so Old miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss,
after getting denied six times, was granted an extra you
have eligibility by a state court judge who issued an
injection that paves the way for Chamberliss to be eligible
in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 4: This was yesterday.
Speaker 3: Judge Robert Whitwell rolled at Chambliss clearly met the criteria
to receive a medical red shirt for a sixth season. Now,
to me, it was puzzling how much he was fighting
this because he kept getting told no.
Speaker 4: I think he's a pro quarterback.
Speaker 3: I think he could have gone into this draft and
actually done really well because everybody's trying to wonder who
the third quarterback is going to be. If it is
going to be Mendoza and it's going to be Ty Simpson,
and I thought Chamblass had a great shot at that.
He had an invite waiting on him for the Senior Bowl.
Obviously he didn't go. He did not get invited into
the Combine, and so for him, I was like, hey,
my guy, the clock's ticking like you got deuced night
at Old missus. Well, you're about to start spring practice,
you're going through the fourth quarter program, and if you
don't get that extra year, you didn't do all the
things that you got to do to get ready for
the NFL draft. But he does get the extra year,
So I'm glad there is something that now is definitive
for him. Once you kind of found out where it
was going in which court it was going to, you
felt pretty good about it, But you just kept getting
denying in the back of your mind, like, are they
trying to make an example of this guy? You got
Joe Judge out there on the stand trying to fight
the offensive coordinator. You get Trinidad Chambers had some interesting
comments that maybe we play a little bit to later on.
I think that feels very OTB like. But at the
end of the day, Trinidad Chamblis gets another year. He
is going to be the quarterback for the old miss Rebels.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I've never seen anybody in the world, any football player,
want to go to the NFL less than Trinidad Chamblas
agree you have you can't finish off the season, you
know better better than he did playing his position. Of course,
they didn't get to the ultimate goal as a team,
but as an individual player was playing fantastic and certainly
looked the part to be the NFL ready, And that's
hard to you know, it's hard to say that because
he made such huge improvement so fast. Right now, I
don't want to compare him to the actual person, but
he made him like Jade Daniels type improvements. So from
where he started playing early on, you kind of saw
some flashes, but wasn't playing the quarterback position the best,
from everything from doing everything from the presnuparade to the
postnup recognition of coverages to to hit and check down
to getting through your progressions to be inaccurate on your
third and fourth progression when there's pressure in the pocket,
to make a smart decision outside of the pocket, Like
he wasn't doing all those things, to the point where
even when we were getting ready to play them Unels.
She didn't have the strongest team, of course, but I
was like, there's no way we're gonna lose this guy.
So defense is good and he's just not a good quarterback. Well,
he started making those improvements that week and he just
kept going and he made huge strides throughout the year
to the point where you come from fair state, you come,
you're up, don't play great as soon as you get
thrown in, but by the end of it, you're like,
is this the best quarterback in the country. It's not
for Anwydz like just playing like an alien towards the
end of the year, Like, yeah, he would have been
the best quarterback in the country. Right now, there's a
lot of question marks, certainly because of the lack of
playing time and how fast that rise was. But the
kid was ready to go to the NFL. So yeah,
like I said, I've never seen anybody want to go
to the NFL less than this guy. Six times they've
appealed to sing in. I mean, you got to give
him credit for being stubborn, hard headed, and certainly, I mean,
is this I've read about it some now you have
to be like an absolute sicko to know all the
details and how the inner workings of everything that have
to do with this legal battle and this fight. But
is this like a done deal or is this just
a step in the right direction for him to come back?
Speaker 2: Do we know?
Speaker 6: So?
Speaker 4: The hearing for Chamblis followed his.
Speaker 3: Request for sixture of eligibility, which was denied by the
NCAA on January of the ninth, and then his appeal
was denied on February the fifth. Ole miss filed a
request for reconsideration from the NCAA claiming new evidence, and
so that was filed, I believe on Monday, and then
that got denied.
Speaker 4: So the NCUBLA.
Speaker 3: They tried everything they could, obviously to deny this and
to not allow this. But now after this they got
to be wondering, like what can we do, Like is
there anything that we can do? So here is what
the NCAA had to say after that. This decision in
a state court illustrates the impossible situation created by differing
court decisions that serve to undermine rules agreed to buy
the same NCAA members who later challenged them in court.
We will continue to defend the NCAA's eligibility rules against
repeated attempts to rob future generations of the opportunity to
compete in college and experience the life changing opportunities only
college sports can create. They going to say, the NCAA
and its member of schools are making changes to deliver
more benefits to student athletes, but the paper or sorry,
but the patchwork of state laws and inconsistent, conflicting court decisions,
making partnering with Congress essential to provide stability for current
and future college athletes.
Speaker 4: So when I read that, I read.
Speaker 3: It as the NCAA lost again, the NCAA saying, Hey,
every time we tried, we try to do something, y'all
tell us we can't by going to these small town
courtrooms that we know we're not going to have.
Speaker 4: The NCAA hasn't won a court case in forever.
Speaker 2: Well now when they're in MISSISSIPI in Mississippi fighting, so.
Speaker 3: Say like, when's the last time how you go in
that back, when's the last time that they've won a
court decision? They just continue to lose and lose and lose.
They denied him six times and it didn't.
Speaker 5: Even denied him in Mississippi before then finally it was
probably Joe Judge.
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, I'm not even trying to be funny,
like the judge was choked up reading that he was
going to be eligible. Like if you play the video,
so if you at the n c double A, you
continue to lose until they get something, like they said, until.
Speaker 5: NCAA losing like they're just they're they're fighting unfair fight
right there. Like if you can gain eligibility in college
football just from a local court decision and the NCAA
cannot stop that from happening, then that's not even a fight.
Speaker 2: That's just you can have no power.
Speaker 7: I know this one's a crazy situation, but I guess,
like to answer your question, the Bettioco situation, they won
that one, I guess because he's ineligible.
Speaker 4: And I think that that's a that's a.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a great point that Elandra makes because in
college basketball they did lose that one. But also remember
Greg Sanki, the commission to SEC backed the n c
Double A in that one. Yeah, so like having the
commissioner's power we're Insae and Sway I think actually helped
that for the nc DOUBLEA. Yeah, because commissioners haven't like
I didn't hear commissioners thinking on this Trinidad Chamblers stuff
at all.
Speaker 4: It's a different situation.
Speaker 8: The n Cuba can still appeal it.
Speaker 7: I don't know if they will because obviously, like y'all's
just said, it's.
Speaker 8: Like a losing fight, but they can still appeal it.
Speaker 5: But it's also a core case for Trinidad Chamblas, who
will be like the Heisman favorite next year. The tusc
listic thing was like a failed pro basketball player.
Speaker 3: It's it is a different situation too with that guy,
like he was a pro a. Trinidad Chambliss was coming
from Division two. He was trying to get another year.
The other one's obvious situation. This one's like does he
have a case? Should he have a case?
Speaker 9: Like we don't really know this in DDE because everybody
compared him to Diego Pavia. No Diego Pavia went Juco
and the NCAA. It wasn't under the NCAA umbrella. Like
I think Joey Aguilar is a shoe win to get
another year because he is in the exact same situation
as Pavia was last year. Trend Oad's a little bit different,
but I mean apparently not. It's college athletics and there's
really not any.
Speaker 1: Rules, so.
Speaker 8: I mean they there are, they're just not being enforced.
Speaker 4: They can't.
Speaker 5: I think they're trying to get enforced. But they're like,
now we'll just see, Yeah, we'll see. Let'll just keep
doing it.
Speaker 4: Should we see the n c double A.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they didn't let us make money back in two
thousand and four. I think we'll win. We should just
say we should just go Capital City. We'll go to
a courtroom right down the road here.
Speaker 4: We should just go play football at LSU. Who just
say we can't? I mean I didn't rich airt I
gotta I got a year.
Speaker 9: I've only played four years. Yeah, there's a guy. I'll
have to look up the school. Uh ninth year coming up?
Speaker 2: Mm hmm, So that's right, Jake.
Speaker 10: Got five more years.
Speaker 2: Only started one, and see he guarantees me four.
Speaker 10: That's not fair. You should get to go back another year.
Speaker 3: Well, and technically we looked this up in the real book.
If you were just a holder, that is not an
official play we therefore you technically only played one year,
so you got hell, you might have four.
Speaker 4: We did because well because COVID.
Speaker 9: Yeah you red shirted one year, yep, but then the
second year, how many games did you get in?
Speaker 10: I mean I was a holder, because now if.
Speaker 9: You play in four or less, true, you could file.
Speaker 5: I'll tell you, Jake, Paul didn't hold itself. Would be
a highly skilled human down there.
Speaker 3: I only found this out because one of our former
employees here blame Besh was also the holder in two
thousand and three.
Speaker 4: He was a holder. Yeah, and we found that out because.
Speaker 2: Of his experience, maybe the second best holder of all time.
Speaker 3: Me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 3: So I mean it's okay, like I'm actually I'm fighting
for you. So I don't know why you're trying to
fight back. I'm here for you.
Speaker 5: Don't patronize me not. I don't even remember what that
stat was, but you know I fought it in one.
Speaker 3: It's not an official play and so therefore, I think
you need to give your letterman jacket back.
Speaker 5: It's not while I player performance bonus Jack in the
NFL told me, we're.
Speaker 4: Not talking about the NFL, we're talking about college football.
Speaker 3: I just don't think that's true. Look, you know, we'll
look it up again. It's not what my letter blanket says.
That's what I'm saying. You gotta give that back. My watch,
I never got my plaque.
Speaker 2: Turn it out. Chandelists just like go to the NFL. Yeah,
so I ever that he wants to go there.
Speaker 4: Like this, man, people are.
Speaker 3: Man, you don't want to come play at the NFL level, Well,
I wanted to go make He's giving major B energy.
I mean, he could end up being really really good again,
and maybe maybe he's the first quarterback. The quarterback class
is much better next year than it is this year.
But y'all, he doesn't have Charlie Weis junior or Lane Kiffin.
Speaker 9: We Me and Matt talked about this before the show started.
I don't think he will. But what if Trinidad sucks
next year?
Speaker 10: Look not as good in general? A lot of it,
A lot of.
Speaker 9: It wasn't Smart's fault, but a lot of people thought
Smart's the first round pick. If he leaves last year,
he comes back, his offensive lines bad, he battles through
an injury. We're talking round right now. Yeah, Like, what
what happens if Trinidad is not? If I'm a GM
next year and I'm sitting down with him pre drafted reviews,
I'm saying.
Speaker 10: What's the deal? Do you want to be here or not?
Do you not want to?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Is it?
Speaker 5: Is it the OTB stance that triniette Chandlis is a
beta male?
Speaker 8: That was I will take that stance.
Speaker 10: That was my stance before.
Speaker 2: But every you can't say everybody at.
Speaker 8: All, miss what I can't because you have.
Speaker 10: He's not currently on the team.
Speaker 4: I'm not saying that about him.
Speaker 10: He's not currently on the team. Patrick bra Chad definitely.
Speaker 3: Actually anybody had all missed, but Patrick Willis probably see
coach let me think, I don't know, you know, coach
O was there for a time too, Son, He's always ready.
Speaker 9: Speaking of did y'all see bow Wallace? Did y'all see
popping off on Twitter.
Speaker 2: The other day?
Speaker 10: Bo freaking Wallace? Yes, it's good.
Speaker 4: He was the original good Bo bad Bo before bow Nick.
Speaker 10: Somebody had put up a thing of like Sam Levitt.
Speaker 9: They're like, you guys are there's so many people out there,
Dalton sam Levitt, y'all are acting like he's Bo Wallace.
He put up sam Levitt's stats, the one from this
year where he only played seven games.
Speaker 10: Bo left that boardant information out. He goes, don't ever
compare a beat to sale eleven. I did this, this,
and this.
Speaker 2: It is number, but even.
Speaker 9: People looked at it across the board, like per game stats.
Speaker 10: Let it's better across the board.
Speaker 4: Shocker.
Speaker 2: I know, I never even heard of this guy.
Speaker 10: But like Bo, Bo Wallace is popping off.
Speaker 4: You don't remember Bo Wallace.
Speaker 3: Twenty fourteen when LSU beat Ole Miss here they were
a top five team in the country. It was seven
to nothing, seven three ten three. I think was in
three Logan Stokes called the only touchdown of the game.
Speaker 10: No he Bo hadn't. They hadn't turn a pick.
Speaker 4: At the end of your NFF, I didn't. If you're paying, but.
Speaker 10: Hadn't turn a pick?
Speaker 4: Ye out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like when I was in I didn't, I
really did. I try to lock into LSU stuff as
much as I could, but.
Speaker 9: Believe Lsu forced him into two. Ten to seven ten
seven was a final score.
Speaker 4: Was a barn burner.
Speaker 9: No, he had one interception, but we dropped the second one,
is what it was. Yeah, he had he didn't turn
a pick or something in like six weeks or something
like eternity.
Speaker 2: Oh, Bill Wallace, he was.
Speaker 9: A fourteen to thirty three that game. Kind of what
Bo Wallace did against good defenses.
Speaker 2: Learned something new every day.
Speaker 3: So Trinidad Chambliss coming back for a sixth seasonal move
but as the old Miss quarterback again deny six times,
but goes to a courtroom in Mississippi and gets to play. Look,
and I'm not like rooting against the guy like I'll
be honest, even as an LSU guy, like I wanted
him to be able to play somewhere, and I felt
like it was so late in the NFL process because
he was trying to get this waiver.
Speaker 4: I didn't understand it. I would have done something different.
Speaker 3: But good young man, great opportunity, cool story, best of
luck to him.
Speaker 5: He must be getting except for one week the brink
strip backed up to stay at Ole Miss.
Speaker 2: That's the only reason.
Speaker 5: I mean, like, I'm not even talking about like seven,
I'm not even talking about that.
Speaker 2: I'm talking about more than it's got to.
Speaker 8: Be more than that, which is just stupid.
Speaker 5: Like things guaranteed outside of I'm sure there's some boosters
mad about still. You know, they were so but heard
about Lane that they're like, if we can get him
to stay for one not go to LSU, I'm.
Speaker 2: We can guarantee you fifteen million dollars.
Speaker 5: Just an emotional knee jerk reaction to everything, because at
one point it was like that was the hot news.
Is Laine going to bring Trinidad over here once he
gets his eligibility that was everybody was saying. So I'm
sure he was getting some promises, so he's like, oh, okay,
ten million dollars. Yeah, I'll stay.
Speaker 4: You sure fault for it like it was ten million dollars.
Speaker 2: Huh.
Speaker 4: He felt like it was.
Speaker 5: That's why I'm saying it has to be like the
top quarterbacks in the transfer portal?
Speaker 2: What got five this year? Five or six million dollars? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Like his is such a situation because he would have
been the top guy right in the if he was
in the transfer portal, he would have been the top
guy in the transfer portal.
Speaker 2: Can we all agree on that?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 5: And then the knee jerk emotional reaction from ole Miss boosters.
So if the top guys getting six and even Tyz
Simpson got reportedly offered seven, I talking this out. I'm
gonna say he got up upwards a ten million guaranteed.
Speaker 4: Toward him.
Speaker 3: And we'll never know, no, but just shocking, right. All right,
we are long for a break. Let's go ahead and
take that break, and when we come back, we'll dive
back into some LSU things going on around campus this weekend.
You've got baseball, you got softball down in Florida. You
also have women's basketball with a huge matchup coming up
on Saturday against South Carolina. We'll have it all for

Speaker 11: Looking around the house, hidden behind the window, the door
from the locker room to the airwaves.
Speaker 1: It's off the bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 11: Well maybe I'm just too sure, or maybe I'm just
too right by the.
Speaker 6: Sound of pieces of No fall down, but that is said.
Speaker 2: You got Valentine this weekend tomorrow.
Speaker 5: The the Hester boys, they have us a big Valentine's
parties at school.
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, they.
Speaker 3: You know how you do the deal, Like you get
the cards and you bring one for everybody in class
and you get a little something to it. Memphis, we're
printing his off last night and he gave everybody like
a rubber cross bracelet with their Valentine card.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: You know the older boys, you know, Joe cool like again,
they can't do anything. They don't have a Valentine anything.
Now now, you know, not to give away too many secrets,
but a twelve year old had me get a Valentine
gift for you know, just one certain someone.

Speaker 4: Yeah, now the fourteen sixteen year old, Now Dad, I'm good.
Oh Dad, ain't telling you so Memphis.
Speaker 5: Did he draw like you have they got to give
like it that I got to give the same thing
to everybody. But did he draw the heart little a
little bigger to one?
Speaker 4: I don't think so.
Speaker 3: And like I'm trying to see, I'm trying to look
up what his Valentine's cards. Sexy had to print them off.
I mean they were okay, And then like he did
this on purpose? You've got that six seven riz uh,
you're my six seven for real? No, you're the six
to my seven. No cap own purpose, like you're so
sigma six seven. So like trying to, I guess, make
fun of all the whatever kids say these days.
Speaker 2: He making fun of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we were all laughing as we were putting together.
I'm twenty twenty five, what about you? Yeah, the kid
has been pumped.
Speaker 5: They had all their so my two older kids, they

Speaker 12: That.
Speaker 4: Actually, I'd go see that. I would go see that.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: Do y'all remember Valentine's and passing out and like what
you gave, because I definitely remember, like I was the jock,
like I was the meatthead. So like I would get
like NFL Valentine's cards, and that's what I was passing out,
John Elway, Damn Reno, Joe Montana, kind of that day
and age of quarterback Randall Cunningham. I remember passing it
out and we'd have like my mom would buy like,
you know, a football sucker to pair with it, you
know it kind of go through the card there, And
so I kept mind real meat headish. Do you remember
what you passed out in Tyler, Texas?
Speaker 2: Man, I don't remember.
Speaker 5: I just remember getting those little cardboard boxes of those
the hearts with messages on them that were made of
chalk tasted a little bit like something also chalk. Yeah
they're not great, No, they're not great, but we love them.
Speaker 2: Be mine.
Speaker 5: Like and you saved that special one, that special one
that had the yellow one that had the pink riding
on it.
Speaker 2: It was like.
Speaker 5: That was the of the chalk options. That was the
best one. I thought that was my favorite one. It
always meant a little bit more. The golden heart.
Speaker 3: What about y'all back there behind the glass, the use
of the show, y'all remember it, y'are closer to it?
Speaker 4: They still do that.
Speaker 8: I think they do. I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 7: I haven't been in school forever, but I don't. I mean,
just probably just got whatever generic volun Times cards they had.
Speaker 4: Did you ever shoot your shot, Taylor?
Speaker 9: I mean, how subtle we talking? I did the I
did the bigger heart like Matt's like.
Speaker 5: Matt, maybe a three dimensional arrow through it.
Speaker 9: We've been there. Yeah, yeah, no, I was. I was
similar to you on like the cards that gave out.
But I used to be excited the cards everybody else
would give, like I remember, you get like a Scooby
Doo one. Or there was actually a girl in my class.
I remember this one vividly for some reason. She's a
big Backstreet Boys fans. You would have a she would
have like, you know, a bunch of cards with all
the different Backs Boys.
Speaker 10: You pass it out.
Speaker 9: It's like you're him, you're him, you're him. So it's
like everybody was trying to see who got who.
Speaker 4: That's pretty cool.
Speaker 3: So you're saying, if you got Howie, you had no
chance of actually getting a day, I got you.
Speaker 4: You're him. You wanted to be Nick Carter in that situation.
Speaker 10: I think I think I probably Nick for the obvious reason.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I do remember those old little Valentine's letters. You
would you would like fold up and it was like
you had the Batman one, you have the X Men

It's not only going to be a no, sometimes it
can't actually be yes.
Speaker 5: And definitely just protect yourself, protect your heart. Always put

Speaker 2: It once was.
Speaker 12: I know.
Speaker 3: I even try to ask my older boys about it,
and they like nothing. I get nothing, Like Katie was
Jackson's age that he is now when we started dating.
Speaker 8: That's actually wild.
Speaker 2: Yeah right, brother, Sorry, dude.
Speaker 3: He's just like, I'm good man, nothing better to be

Speaker 4: My guy, the guy got time for weird, all right,
cool man, And I was not like that.
Speaker 2: That's kind of you.
Speaker 4: Guys are definitely dumb, so dumb. Okay, that's aggressive.
Speaker 10: So it's a fund.
Speaker 8: Dumb af y'all don't get it.
Speaker 2: In fairness, girls can be dumb too.
Speaker 10: Everybody's allowed to be dumb here.
Speaker 8: Girls can be dumb.
Speaker 3: But y'all are are for sure dumb, like dumb, dumb
like fast stuff.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's very true. That's a great point.
Speaker 8: For sure dumb. I'm not gonna say we're not, but
like when it comes.

to know thyself. And so I'm gonna pivot here and

as we mentioned, you do have baseball obviously open up
this weekend. I believe we have Chris Hilton joining us
at nine fifteen, correct, yes, ye, yeah, so nine to
fifteen will catch you up with former LSU receiver Chris Hilton.
But we'll dive into baseball, give you the opening weekend rotation.
Speaker 4: When don't we come back here on O TV Off.
Speaker 1: The bench from the locker room to the airwaves. Gets
off the bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in. It is O t by
This is bad by me. But can you get the
l s U Baseball Powerhouse returns video ready to go
and get me a little thumbs up whenever you get that,
I want to play.
Speaker 4: It's a hype up video. But there's no highlights yet.
They hadn't had a pitch yet. They're gonna have a
highlight video.
Speaker 2: Oh they had practice. They have clips from last year. Bruh.
Speaker 4: You can't be putting practice tape out there for the
hype video.
Speaker 2: I mean a lot of people do it.
Speaker 4: Remind me, never put you in charge hype videos.
Speaker 2: I don't. I wouldn't be very good at it.
Speaker 4: Why.
Speaker 5: I don't know how to, like, you know, put videos
together and make a hype video.
Speaker 3: I've never done it before. I probably YouTube though, chat
GBT before we get to the video. Nice job there,
toyay already got it ready to go? A landra Friday,
Saturday Sunday we know the opening weekend rotation. Right after
Jay Johnson got off with us, he announced it to
the media, and yes, sometimes like we'll ask Jay about
sometimes he slipped, like one time I think he told us,
but also like, look, he's got a press conference, he's
got his moment, like we want to allow him.
Speaker 4: To do that.
Speaker 7: Also at the press conference, he said he was like,
y'all all work really hard. I didn't want to tell
one of you, and so I wanted to tell all
of you at the same time what the rotation was
going to be.
Speaker 4: Now, he probably also would say if I was going
to tell anybody, y'all.
Speaker 7: Know, if I'm going to tell anybody who the starter is,
no doubt because of Matt Flynn.
Speaker 8: Yeah, because he's the biggest baseball fan.
Speaker 4: No question about it.
Speaker 3: But he did announce it right after and uh, Alandra,
who is going to be on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday
this week.
Speaker 7: So today we get to see Cason Evans to the
surprise of absolutely nobody.
Speaker 4: That's pretty good.
Speaker 7: I'm so excited about this. And then Saturday we got
a new one.
Speaker 4: Cooper Moore.
Speaker 7: Sunday Sunday, Willie Schmidt.
Speaker 2: Let's go.
Speaker 7: So so Evans your ace to start off season. Now,
we all know that the bullpen and the rotation and
everything can is always subject to chest, but for right now,
Cason Evans your ace on Friday night.
Speaker 8: I'm just so excited to see him.
Speaker 7: I'm so excited to see because obviously he was really
good last season, incredible, but he's fully the starter now
and we get to see some new stuff from him, probably,
like I'm sure he's developed some stuff in the off season.
Speaker 3: So it feels more confident too, knowing what he did
last year and being older.
Speaker 4: That's a great opening weekend rotation.
Speaker 7: Excited to see Cooper Moore for the first time in
a Tiger uniform.
Speaker 4: And then for Schmid, I.
Speaker 7: Mean again, we were talking about it the other day.
Speaker 8: Very high ceiling.
Speaker 7: He has a very high ceiling, So excited to see
what it is because you know, he had a little
bit of control issues last season. He was the midweek
starter for a little bit, then he had that really
good game, Jay moved him to a Sunday roll.
Speaker 8: Didn't end up going as well as he wanted it to.
But if Nate.
Speaker 7: Yeski was working with him in the off season, which
I'm sure he was, I'm sure we'll see a lot
better stuff from William Schmidt on Sunday than we did
last season.
Speaker 8: So there's your starting rotation.
Speaker 4: Definitely rooting for him.
Speaker 3: Played high school baseball literally down the street.

shine brighter, the fans scream louder, and the power is

power come from. It comes from the players, honoring the

the relentless pursuit of victory. It comes from the box,
through thick and thin, the greatest fans in college baseball.
It comes from the past, the standard that's been set,
and it summons the future. The standard that we raise.

the trophy cabinets full. That's what makes LSU the powerhouse
of college baseball.
