Speaker 1: Let's get to know the Cougars student athletes and a
player profile segments here on one oh three nine at
ninety eight three ESPN, the Van.
Speaker 2: Welcome back to Gorvey Sports here on one O three
nine and ninety eight three esp and the fan Ronalds,
the three mant Weaver, Rennecy Gurney here as well Vic
cram By my side and Brett always bringing the hammer.
We got a star studed cast for this pre New
Year's Eve edition of Cougar Sports Tuesday, December thirtieth on
your Utah ESPN Radio Network. We just got done with
our question and poll of the day as well. I'll
throw it out there because it didn't get a chance
to ask you how many other players or who else
do you think we'll go into the portal from BYU?
Already McKay Hill's sets in there, both of them, McKenzie
twins are in the portal as well. I think there's
an even a bau offensive lineman as well. So who
else will by You lose to the portal this season?
Speaker 3: So all these guys make sense, It's like, yeah, time,
I get it. I get it.
Speaker 4: There's gonna be at least one person you're not anticipating
there's gonna be.
Speaker 2: A queuing the Garrison Taggart market rate. Oh I want
more money. Oh, you can't guarantee me, Tom, And I'm
competing at a position.
Speaker 3: I agree, there's going to be that guy.
Speaker 2: Who is that guy? Ask Who's who's the Who's the
guy that throws you out there? Isaiah Lasker honestly could
be that guy.
Speaker 4: I hate predicting stuff like this because it just gets
you in trouble by him large.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, then I apologize for my take.
Speaker 4: Maybe I shouldn't say what I'm about to say, but
I definitely have a thought.
Speaker 3: I'm thinking thoughts right now, you're thinking thoughts.
Speaker 2: Look, I just want to be realistic. I don't want
a player who say this right now. I don't want
anybody to leave. Okay, but it can happen.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna speak cryptically here.
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, we've talked about.
Speaker 4: Uh Walker Lions. Yeah, probably coming to be what you
suppress price. There's also a notable Texas linebacker.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's coming in. Ah probably gonna start ah.
So in response to that, someone might leave just saying hmm,
that's the thought that came.
Speaker 2: To speak I have a question. Do we know We
still don't know.
Speaker 3: We don't know for sure.
Speaker 5: Sorry, no, not on that, or we don't know about
Isaiah Glasger, Right, yeah, we still don't know.
Speaker 3: I asked Isaiah directly about his plans.
Speaker 4: He says, I haven't I'll make a decision after my
final game.
Speaker 5: So there is a possibility that he comes back, yeah,
I mean, or I wonder, like, because I think with
l J what it is is He's like, look, dude,
we've been stubbed from the playoffs twice.
Speaker 2: We got to get in and prove that we deserve
to be there.
Speaker 5: I wonder if you can sell that thing, same thing
to Isaiah Glasker.
Speaker 2: And I think you sell draft stock, Like if you're
a fifty seventh round guy, why would you like not
come back one where you're in elevate that stock, especially
if you were gimpie.
Speaker 4: One thing that was very apparent about this team throughout
the year. And I've covered a lot of BAYU teams,
and I've covered teams where you kind of got the
sense that it's not meshing, they don't like each other.
Speaker 3: I'm relatively right. This team likes each other. They're they're
in it.
Speaker 4: They it's a phenomenal culture what he has right now,
and it's a culture that makes people want.
Speaker 3: To stay and and and and just stay with that.
Speaker 4: And the fact that they can get paid now to
be in that culture, it makes it tougher to leave.
Speaker 3: I mean, and any other era of college football.
Speaker 6: LG.
Speaker 3: Martin's gone. There's not not even a question. Facts.
Speaker 4: You pay that guy and his mark value is very,
very high.
Speaker 3: What he did this season is ridiculous.
Speaker 2: It is absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 4: And a key for him was after that game I'm
I'm at Iowa State where he injured his shoulder, and
you talk to players like you can kind of through that,
but it hurts.
Speaker 3: You're fine, bro, I think he became and he even
admitted to it. The next game was against Texas Tech.
He did not do well, and I remember asking.
Speaker 2: No one does well against Texas Tech. Just remind you.
Speaker 4: But I asked him the week after where he had
his phenomenal game against.
Speaker 2: Was it TCU Cincinnati? First?
Speaker 4: No, sorry, he had a phenomenal game because he went
off against Cincinnati and I asked.
Speaker 3: What was different than he He says, it's just confidence.
Speaker 2: I wasn't confident, and now I am, I'm like, oh shoot,
And you could feel it when he cause he looked
at you. I was I was the row behind you.
The way he looked at you and said he I
just wasn't confident, Like he didn't look you up and
down like sassy up, but he looked you up and
down like, oh bro, I wasn't. But now I am.
Speaker 3: I like that because that's honesty, right.
Speaker 4: He could easily say, uh, nothing, it was just game plan,
just do my one to eleventh. You know what kind
of stuff Bear always says, sorry, but uh but he
caught to it. It was I really appreciate that answer,
and I think that kind of exemplified that he kind
of reached another tier, even relative to the phenomenal tier
he had already established.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I have bred to hammer put bread, always
bringing the hammer. Put that out. The transfer portal opens
in one two it opens in opens January tewod so
two to three days. Who else do you anticipate will
be going to the portal from bay you how many
others will they lose?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: The portals will take if this season, who else will
be going into the transfer port Look, it's a question
we hate that we have to ask, But that's just
the nature you have to replace. These guys are going
for more playing time. It's a question we have to
ask because roster needs and key position groups, you can't
have it. You know with running back, you know, receiver,
you're already those are the big positions, backup, quarterback, Mchahal's
that's saying you got to replace needs. So this is
a question that we need to ask. We're gonna get
into the sound now from Carson Ryan and TANNERL. Wall.

Utah dot com. All right, get into the sound. Gurnie
was there, myself was there as well. These are the
questions that were asked mainly by pretty much all of us. Boy,
you guys, everybody else. After Kalanie, Evan and Bear addressed
the media the general stuff they left. But we'll start here.
Carson Bear never likes to reveal much about his physical
condition condition, but from your perspective, how tough is Bear?
How severe was that injury? And how do you he
go through that on Saturday getting the dub.
Speaker 7: I mean, he's a fighter, and he's got so much
cred man, and I can tell you he's he's pretty
banged up. And I'll just see him go out there
and played the way that he did and that two
point conversion where he had to run a guy over
again the end, So I know that hurt his ankle
and that was.
Speaker 3: Hurting him a lot.
Speaker 7: But he's he's just such a fighter dude, and it's
it's been so great to play with him and just
see the maturity from him and just the great I'm
just so proud of him.
Speaker 2: Jim and I got really nervous because he was so
banged up. Like Carson said that he tried to push
off on that second and five and fell, and I said,
oh no, Like my heart dropped, as a as a person,
as a human, a fan of college football in general,
for Bear's family, like I thought that when he was
limping back, I'm like, he's not going to be able
to make this work. Like I I felt, I was
nervous about his career because the high angle sprang is
a no joke.
Speaker 4: G man, yeah he I mean, what other superlative have
we not used to?
Speaker 2: The SCREB might have asked been for his.
Speaker 4: But but I appreciate that quote because well I was
mad about in my interview, and I mentioned this to you,
is I asked Bear about to rebuild his condition. He
just doesn't do that. He's not that guy ask yet.
And I should have directed that question to Clawney. But
I appreciate Carson doing that because it needs to be reported.
Speaker 2: He's pretty banged up here.
Speaker 4: It's phenomenal what this kid endured, how he adjusted, what
he went through, and how he performed.
Speaker 3: It's fantastic.
Speaker 4: But Bear's the last guy that would ever mention anything
about it.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be like Jared Hall. Ah, you know, that's
what it is. Remember Jared Hall when he got his
ribs messed up against Arizona State and he had broken
ribs literally or like fractured ribs, and he said, ah,
some big boys, you know, they follow you, but I'm okay.
You know, that's just how it goes. And it didn't
play the next two games. That's who generally like would have.
I think his health would have been a risk of
like maybe I'm not gonna say, you know any medical
terms that I don't know, but playing with hurt ribs
and something bad happening afterwards, like you really can't take
that chance. But for me, it reminds me of how
tough Jared Hall was and Jaron Hall was was was
damn tough. So I look at those two of that. Now,
I'm not going to go into who's tougher, but there
that was some Jaron hall Less type this moment of
playing through some stuff.
Speaker 3: G Man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, number two. Let's keep going on, Carson, just
take us through your your day on Saturday. Obviously it
was a cored day. It was the first time you
had over one hundred receiving yards. You were filling it
in that Pop Tarts Bowl.
Speaker 3: He felt great. It's so special.
Speaker 7: And I'm just seeing just seeing everyone after we won
that game, and just the fight we had as a team,
and you know, being able to play like that and
it was so special, and you know, it was the best.
Speaker 3: Game I've had in my career in college.
Speaker 7: And just I'm so grateful and great for the opportunity
to be here and for this coaching staff, and just
for the players and teammates I have and just helping
me get to this point.
Speaker 2: The four star recruit out of American Fork had eight
receptions for one hundred and twenty yard g Man, averaging
fifteen yards per temp. I just wish you would have
got that Teddy to get into the end zone to
celebrate it more visibly. You and I both saw it
emotional in that post game, was trying to fight hold
tears back because of what BYU has meant to him.
When parents take to Twitter, I always say that you
know it's serious. Camel Town of Vass's dad's done it,
Carson Ryan's mom of reinventing the tight end and Utah
did not sound like he had a positive experience. It
did not go the way at least they thought it would.
And b Yu, I think it has been everything for him
in that and you could hear the emotion in his voice.
Speaker 3: T is gonna be a big position for BYU. This
could be big.
Speaker 4: I mean, what what do they have? Five four star
tight ends in the pipeline.
Speaker 2: I don't know how you make I'm not even.
Speaker 3: Exaggerating that number.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Ty get you, we can get you. He's a
former four But if he comes in Lions, Ryni Swanson,
I forgot him, come back off his mission Rock Harris Blake, Bryce,
he's a three star, apologize but yeah, still he's coming
in four four stars.
Speaker 3: Twenty one personnel is going to be a staple. That's
all that's going to b B way.
Speaker 2: He's off under Aaron Roderick.
Speaker 3: Get used to it.
Speaker 4: Twenty one personnel, that's what you're seeing. It's gonna be
maybe even thirty one personnel.
Speaker 2: Thirty one personnel. Let's go for random football question thirty
one person I'm running back.
Speaker 5: Just four tight ends and a receiver and just QB power.
Speaker 2: Kansas City Chiefs. Are they all gonna, you know, go
merrygo Christmas round with the four tight ends and come
up with something.
Speaker 4: The tell level for that position is ridiculous. It's ridiculous.
Speaker 3: You'd be a honest if it was just Brock Carrous, Oh,
you'd be out of him. It was just writers Watson, No,
it's writers, wasn't and Brock Harris and get you and whoever.
I'm forgetting Lions.
Speaker 4: Who's not in the program officially yet it's Andrew Ward
park or Parker or yeah, whatever, And I gotta get
that wreck.
Speaker 2: Come on now.
Speaker 3: I still like Moulayaukee and I like you.
Speaker 2: No, Mulayaki, he played well. He has a touchdown on
the year, his first game in Portland State and Portland State. Yeah,
they had good had good years. Yeah, they had good years.
Wasn't terrible, No, No, mil Yauki is a good tight end. Yeah,
so I think until you get those of the guys. No,
Millyyaki and and I said Carson and Walker if he
ends up big b YU at all could go.
Speaker 3: Well, I really believe so tight end the university is coming.
Speaker 2: Tight end you, baby, what do you mean it already
was tight end you it was it was there. It's
already here. Hey, what you're talking about? Don't don't disrespect
that now. But yeah, the tight end. They run the
dang football with l J and the throats to the
tight end. Next year, that's gonna be phenomenal. You imagine. Look,
and this is what I mean, Walker Lions at b
YU would be the second coming of Isaac Rex. It
would be Remember Isaac before that injury, one of the
best red zone threats in college football. Some people said, Rod,
that's hyperbaly Ah, No, it wasn't. He was tough to guard.
He was when he got in the red zone one
on one. It was a nightmare before the ankle injury.
Could you imagine a guy now that runs routes better
in the slot, that can do that, that's that can
play the wide receiver position technically as well. You have
him twenty yards in. You thought Carson was good, you
thought Isaac record was good. This dude with LJ in
the backfield, that's what you need to win a big
twelve title.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say this and and this might be a
hot comment, but this is how high I'm on this kid.
A lot of people forgot about him. I think at
the end of the day, Rhiner swants my idea better
than dude has stuff. I'm telling you.
Speaker 2: Anyway, I wish I wish you would have got more
more touches s Freshpan. You just think let's get back
to the sound. Oh man, this one's for Tanner. How
would you describe what Evan Johnson went through in the
final two minutes? Obviously the redemption play that he made
that was the game ceiling I in t Evan, excuse me, Tanner,
And did you say anything to him by chance, as
you did as the captain before that play happened.
Speaker 6: I know I didn't have a chance to say anything
to him in between those plays, but you know, I
think Evan is something we talk about on defensive was
just having the next play mentality, and so, yeah, we
gave up a long play, but you know, being able
to rally back and play the next four downs, and
you know, Evan ultimately comes up with the you know,
the game ceiling pick. I think that's a great lesson
for life right like that adversity might strike, but you
can't hang your head like you gotta gotta keep going.
And I think Evan embodied that perfectly in the way
that he ended the game, and and and our team,
you know, I think the fight that that we showed
too is responding from you know, being down and but
coming out on defense and getting a shutout in the
second half was was huge for us.
Speaker 4: Selfishly, I'm gonna miss Tanner Walls interviews.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, that guy, Mike he answers.
Speaker 4: Not only does he answer your he answers your question directly,
but he gives you more than you're asking for, which
is a really rare thing. Connor pay was the only
other guy I can remember off the top of my
head that that had that ability, But Tennor Wall absolutely
has that he.
Speaker 2: Is Andrew Gentry will give it to you as well.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what I think.
Speaker 4: Tanner Wall will be a general authority, probably.
Speaker 2: A mission president.
Speaker 3: I'd say a senator or represent but I don't senator.
I want to put that on politics. I don't want
I'd want that for our country, but I wouldn't want it.
Speaker 2: For not getting to any of the political discussions anyway.
Speaker 4: But you know what I'm saying that that kid's going
to be That kid's going to play an enormous success
no matter what he does.
Speaker 2: That kid is if he if he's going to be
president of the United States, Canada, Town of US, that
needs to be his vice president. There you go, there
you go. That's the only possible way. Both of those
dudes are going to be mission presidents. They're going to
be general authorities. Those dudes are very very well spoken
and exemplify ever think about BYU. Wait till we get
to the rest of the sound, because there's some stuff
of why Tanner is going embodies of what you're talking about.
Number four, this is the one is also for you, Tanner.
This game was sort of a you know, microscopic of
what the entire season was, what you guys went through,
the adversity coming out on top. What's the reason for that?
What does this team have continually that allows you guys
to do this time and time again. I just think
we have a lot of heart.
Speaker 6: We got a lot of love for each other, got
a lot of love for our coaches and for our
fans and our program. And you know, I think there's
a lot of things that can't be measured and statistics,
the kind of intangible things that just make us who
we are. And it shows in the way that we
find ways to win games all the time. And seeing
the way that we you know, responded, We would like to,
you know, not come into half down two scores like
we've done. I think that might have been like the
fifth or sixth time we did that this season. But
you know, they that we never hang our heads and
just come out with a lot of fight and hard
and end the game the right way. And we talk
about it. We've talked about every week since the beginning
of the season and Colonie harps on the seven marks
of a finisher and what a finisher does and how
to embody that.
Speaker 2: And so that's ingrained.
Speaker 6: Within us as players for him, and we came out
and finished the game the right way and then the
win and you know, capped off our season with twelve wins,
which was huge for us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, look that what he says, the intillgible things that
you mentioned, g Man, the love that they have for
this team. Going back to something that was set in
the media availability, Kelly Pipinggas showed clips in film with
the team and you all get together and do film.
I remember this with Rugby and he showed a clip
of no one getting hyped in that Western Ginny game,
and I went back and I watched some of it
just to see what I could see on the broadcast
of you or what fans they posted. And he was right.
They really weren't getting up. They just kind of left
to be bear through for his first rounds of our game.
Then again against Arizona, the go bonkers. They're like going crazy.
People are getting up on the sideline. But that goes
to the other intangible things outside of winning that they
speak of, of love your brothers and celebrating. They're like,
you got guys have to being held back on the sideline.
You and I before at that game because and they
look and that was even through a rain delay, So
that tells you that they were that. That's some of
those off the cuss little things that people don't always
see and notice of this team and how hyped it
they get, like Evan Johnson's interception, the entire defense coming
around you, Isaiah Laskers picking up the fumble company, everybody
running down to the end like doing that is those
things that maybe not everybody else is able to do
or teams do.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the culture on this team is phenomenal. I don't
know what else to say about it.
Speaker 4: It's it's what's led to this twelve and two season.
Speaker 2: It really has finished up here. Let's keep going. Let's
go through these last ones really quickly. Carson, did you
have a pretty good idea that you be utilized so
much in this game with LG being out and Bear
being a little gimpy.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I knew we were gonna throw the ball a
lot and I was going to be part of that.
And you know, all months we've been practicing and putting
plays in to get me the ball, and you know,
I just the ball came in way a lot. I
was able to get the opportunity to make plays. And
you know, in the run game too, like we had
a couple a couple of guys who didn't play as
much this year in the backfield this year, hear this
game and we had to step up as an as
an old line and tight end him to create scenes
from them and give them the opportunities to score when
they do get that ball. And so just being able
to perform pass the game and running games. It was
this great feeling.
Speaker 2: As they had a bunch of plays in practice. They
prepare for it, and you could definitely see it. Why
when you number twenty twenty was galloping like a gazelle
out there running people over. Took about six bodies to
bring them down once he got in the open field.
Back to you, Tanner, I'll try not to, you know,
put you on the spot too much. I know Jay
Hill is your position coach though, as well as the
defensive coordinator and everything. What has he just meant to
you in your career and what has I guess it's
just been his impact on as on you as you
moved to the next chapter in your life.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean playing for Jay has been an amazing privilege.
I switched positions from offense and from wide receiver to
safety right when Coach Hill got to you know byu
so being with him and kind of just being mentored
by him and understanding the way that he sees the
game and understands the game has helped me immenseally in
my development. And just so grateful to have a coach
that you know, believed in me to give me that opportunity.
Obviously had to do a lot of work to earn that,
but at the same time, him believing and trusting in me,
and he like the preparation that he puts in and
how much he cares like it shows in everything that
he does. I'm just grateful to have been able to
play for a coach that wants to win and wants
to do it the right way as bad as we
do as players, and just super grateful again. And he's
an amazing football coach and he's going to continue to
have an amazing career wherever he ends up. I know
that there's you know, a lot of questions out there
right now about what's the future for him, But I
know wherever he will be, he will have success because
of who he is and how he handles himself.
Speaker 2: We'll find out, Yeah, we'll find out.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a tough replacement.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a tough replacement.
Speaker 3: Jam.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a tough replacement. Look, I'll say this,
can I give be honest with you. I don't know
how j Hill was as a player, and it'd be
nice to see him play in this age and how
his demeanor was. But I get J Hill vas from
Tanner Wall like future defensive coordinator at BYU ten. Like
it just gives that, like the I think that's why
it works so well, Like it mimics like just that,
Like I feel from a spiritual standpoint, a mental standpoint,
I feel like they speak the same language a lot.
Tanner and Jay just give you that calm, cool and
collective presence they do. Like I would not be surprised
if further down the line, if Tanner decides to do it,
of course, after you know, he's served his mission for
the church as a mission president, he served that if
he's coaching football. Looky it happened with Jim mcguthrie, like
he was, you know, a closer for you know, the
BYU and was it with the Royals and won a
World Series and then got called to be a mentioned
president of Houston Men. And I ran to him in
the airport one time, going to Big Told many days
two years ago. I think, and look what the Lord
cause you calls you And I just played by play,
But I could see that being Tanner's path of doing
some stuff for the church and then coaching football and
being in a position at jails. And I love to
see defensive future by a defensive coordinator. Tanner Wall, we'll
see if that's in his future, no doubt. Last thing,
and we'll get out of here on this Tanner final
pitch To those that are not just thinking about playing
football at BYU but b YU in general, there's a
lot of stuff that goes on on this campus academic wise,
that you have accomplished. Just take us through what that
has been to you at BYU, because it's much more
than football.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I know BYU is a special place, and it's
it's like that by design and the development that you
have in all aspects of your life spiritually, academically, physically, socially.
Speaker 3: You know, it's it's.
Speaker 6: An amazing place and it's it's such a unique place.
And you know, you spend a couple of minutes on
campus and you can notice that you know, people from
people from outside of the r BYU community who go
there or are touched by the BOU community, they they
recognize something different. But I'm just super grateful to be
able to have represented by U in my play and
in the way that I carry myself off the field.
But just feel so blessed for such an amazing institution
that's you know, led by amazing men and by God,
and to be able to play for something way bigger
than yourself, it's it's it's it's special to go out
on the field and have the Why on the front
of your jersey and your last name on the back
and just realize how big, how big, the picture really
is and you get to play a special part of it.
As you mentioned the academics at By, the environment is incredible.
You're you know, you're not forced, but you are. You're
pushed to to really to grow. You're uncomfortable, which is
good and you're able to grow so much outside of
your comfort zone and helps you become the kind of
person that you need to be.
Speaker 3: Let me tell you.
Speaker 4: Something about Tanner Wall, and I wish benk Crittle was
here for for what I'm about to say. But Tanner
Wall is the kind of guy that fans don't want
out there, at least initially when he was buying for
safety spot.
Speaker 3: He was rotating out there. It's like, why is Tanner Wall?
That's the guy get them off?
Speaker 4: Because no one knows how to play the position, so
you got to go for the slow, white uh guy
that just knows the angles. And it is smart, but
it has no athletic a building. That's what fans think.
I'm telling you that's the perception.
Speaker 5: But Tannert I didn't think that, But I know fans
who are literally board with everything.
Speaker 4: Nobody want to Tanner Wall until he said, even last
season when he separated, says, no, that's your free safety.
Speaker 3: He's good.
Speaker 4: He's really really good. This kid maximizes everything.
Speaker 3: He is a man.
Speaker 2: Every damn thing he's been he maximizes.
Speaker 3: I can't say enough about this kid.
Speaker 4: Him choosing the way you in the first place, where
nothing was given him, absolutely nothing. He had a lot
of competition to weave through and he ended absolutely as
the team's top defensive back, team captain, eloquent spokesman, and.
Speaker 2: He was the eloquent community community.
Speaker 4: Guy, an enormous b Way You fan growing up. He
is b Way You football. He's what this program produces.
That's what makes me way greater are guys like Tanner Wall.
And it's been a it's been a privilege to cover him.
He's been fantastic and be we It's going to be
very very hard to replace the impact he has on

day on the line. Braiden, Merry Christmas to you. Late
Christmas didn't catch up with you last week. How was
the Christmas with the kiddos?
Speaker 8: It was awesome. They're in that perfect age where everything
super exciting for them. The magic is there. So it's
a really fun time of life to be able to
have Christmas and have a kid. So thanks for having guys.
Speaker 2: Of course I gotta ask you know the kids. I
know you got triplets. You mentioned that my daughters is
not old enough to just go crazy with the wrapping paper.
So it's a very slow turtle emotion, but very slow
to exactly you say the nephew. But eventually she got there.
Eventually she got there and then like kind of like
helped the box and just looked at me. It's his dad,
and you know.
Speaker 5: And my nephew was like this where he was like
almost at some points more interested in the wrapping paper.
Speaker 3: I know, I.
Speaker 2: Just boughts of these.
Speaker 5: Monster trucks and you're more interested in the wrapping paper
than you are the actual gift.
Speaker 2: Yes, I know, Samsa just waughting these presents relaxed, like
you need to pay attention to the present. But I'm
glad it went well. All last thing on the Christmas topic,
what are the traditions that the Day family does on Christmas?
What do you guys do on Christmas? Even Christmas?
Speaker 8: So we actually were down, we went down to my
in laws down to Henderson. So that's this year. We
haven't really created our own tradition check because we're still
doing kind of some of our own family traditions. So
hopefully in the next couple of years begin to get
ourselves set up and do some stuff just our own family,
But right now we're kind of still bouncing around with
the in laws and my parents and stuff like that.
Speaker 5: So Brandon, we've been having the long debate on the
Christmas pajamas. Oh, I know, some people do the Christmas pajamas.
Some people buy something like a Nike sweatsuit that they'll.
Speaker 2: Actually wear for the whole year.
Speaker 5: Where does the Day family fall on the Christmas pajamas?
Speaker 8: Well, this is asking, This is a pretty personal question
that we're in just kidding. So my family, with the kids,
we definitely get Christmas pajamas and we do those. I'm
just not a pajama guy really, and so I don't
really care for pajamas, and so we don't do it
for the adults. But all my kids always we always
have Christmas jamas that they were on Christmas Eve and
all that kind of stuff. So we're kind of in
the middle, I guess, not fully in but not fully out.
Speaker 5: No, I think that's a good way to do it.
My wife is she's the same where she's like, no,
we have to do it. It's it's tradition. We have
to do the ten dollars pants from old Navy. And
we had a little bit of a not at our disagreement,
but just a discussion this year because I wanted to
do because I'm with you, Braiden, like, I don't really
pajamas aren't that much to me. I'll pretty much wear
like a Nike sweatsuit around the house. So I said, hey,
what if we do that instead? She said, no, tradition,
we gotta do the old Navy pants all that stuff. Well,
I bought her a Nike sweatsuit for Christmas. Afterwards she goes, yeah,
next year, she goes, next year, We're not doing the
old Navy sweat with the old Navy pants anymore. So
I'm like, all right, cool, So I won that battle.
So I'm with you, Braiden, Like, let me wear something
that I'm actually gonna wear for three months after Christmas
as opposed to the ten dollar pajamas I'm gonna wear
for one night of the year exactly.
Speaker 8: I agree that, and that sounds like I've got a
trick for next year to be able to get out
of it even more so, thank for giving me the advit.
Speaker 2: Hey, we give advice here on ESPN the Fan, that's
what we do, but you also give advice as well.
People need to wear better suits, and I've seen some
tack on just in the last couple of weeks that
I've not been happy about. What deals right now, Bradon,
do you guys got going on at Onion Men's where
I know that the new year's coming up? What can
people looking to look forward to?
Speaker 8: Yeah, so we've got for the rest of the month,
we're doing our twenty percent off gift cards that's still live.
I think I've seen quite a few uh listeners from
here actually get that, so jump on that. We'll only
got you know, today and tomorrow left to be able
to do that, and then for January we're still working
on doing so this stuff. We have the all of
the sperience inventory that I've mentioned a few times on
here that we're still trying to kind of blow out,
and I've got tons of that in Orum still. So
we've blown out a good chunk coop. We've still got
stuff there, but it is starting to get smarse. So
if you're a if you're a common size and you
really want to come in, you got to come into
Done because it is going to be basically gone in
the common sizes. We're still gonna have fringechises for a
couple more weeks probably, but honestly, some great deals there,
and then we always always trying to keep our pricing competitive.
So you know, you can get an elevators for four hundred,
but if you buy one, you get the second one
twenty percent off, so great deal on that. Our shirts
are really really amazing shirts, but they're you know, fifty bucks,
isn't is it crazy for the type of shirt it is?
You know, it can I think it's totally comparable with
some of the shirts that are going for eighty to
one twenty, So it's a really good deal all around.
We try and keep him moderately prices. We know that
we may be a little more team Skits in Utah.
I'm just gonna maybe I'll say it that way. So
we try we try and keep pricing competitive so people
here in the area can definitely can can it can
be something that can feel comfortable with.
Speaker 2: Got you back? I think you just cut out for
like three seconds right there. Just repeat your last part.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I just basically was just saying that that we
definitely try to make it be something that's that's comfortable
and people are willing to pay those prices and it's
not something they fill couch for.
Speaker 2: Yeah, guys, Look, if you want a holiday special holiday deal,
the gift card is the to go. I told you,
Look my birthday tomorrow, go ahead and slide make I'm joking,
I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Don't do that. I will give
it back, but no, take the gift card to give
it to a lovely sumone. Look, you go down and
everybody likes to get the best Truno investment for what
they have. You can get these shirts right now, fifty
bucks for a nice white shirt. Look, I could tell
you how much I pay for my mission. I won't
say who I bought it from but it was way
more and it wasn't a nice temple shirt that actually
tucked in, and I got a better one. That's what
you need. Get the proper deals today. Go to Odion
Men's where go to the Orams store. They still got
the three locations along on Wastatch Front. That's one of them.
You can also go to Riverton if you're over there,
go to Draper as well. Give Braiden Day and Odion
Men's where an opportunity to own your business. Speaking of
earning business, b why you earned its business? Braiden got
that twelfth win first time since two thousand and one.
What do you make of the pop Tarts Bowl? The
Cooogies took care of business down there against Georgia Tech.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was. It was really frustrating because I mean,
just three plays change in that game, and it's a
totally different ballgame and we dominate. It was hard to
to not feel like the score was indicative of what
was going on. But that also made it so I
really wasn't stressed. Even you know, my wife was with
their sisters and so she was checking the score and
texting me, and she kept texting Zor like what's going on?
Are you nervous? And I'm like no, she kept and
then twenty minutes later, are you nervous now? Like no, Like,
I'll bet I wasn't. Really, I just wasn't nervous. I
knew that we were gonna come back. I felt comfortable
that we were in control of the game. We just
hadn't capitalized, and I knew that we were going to capitalize.
So there was the only time that I really started
getting a little nervous was was after you know that
four to fifteen and they go and get down and
those last few plays. I was actually a little nervous,
But I wasn't. I still believed. But but I definitely
feel like it was a game that I wish it
would have been a little more lofsided, Like I feel
like the game actually was just so even more proof that,
like this team is incredible, But I think we took
care of business. We beat another ranked team, just another
thing to add to the resume to show we definitely
were left out and we should have been.
Speaker 5: Brandon, what was your favorite play slash moment of the
game and why was it?
Speaker 2: The scissor kick into a fund?
Speaker 8: That one was pretty sweet. If if he can come
out and news you can come out and tell us
that that was on purpose, then that will definitely be
my favorite play of the game. I thought that the
Enich run was pretty fun. When he is not hurt
all that was a pretty fun little play there, and
then watching him get a little bit of run there.
I know you put a lot of work into the program,
whether he's produced up und or not, so that was
kind of fun to get it. Having to that Bear
on that two point conversion, I think with a pretty
cuffy play for him to on such a bump ankle
to go out and still drive himself through that middle
linebacker and get it yet ze. So honestly, that's probably
my favorite player right there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's crazy. You bring up Bear just speak
to what you've seen, you know, as just a fan,
like the toughness of that. So he tries to run
on second and five, right normal, Bear runs over those
three dudes waiting for him at the go line, gets in,
but tries to push off and even before he gets
it back to the line of scrimmage, ankle kind of
not even kind of ankle gives out and he goes
down and two point conversion eight. They have to have
it right to make that game the way it was
a field goal game, one score game. He says, you
know what, screw it, bum ankle. I'm gonna run bro over,
which I do, and then I'm gonna carry two other
dudes to still get into the end zone. Speak to
that toughness.
Speaker 8: Well, and that was that was the cool part because
you can tell him that moment because earlier he tried
to make one of his cuts and he's super famous
for that. Just one little cut and he gets upfield
and that's when he heard his ankle. If you could
tell him that last ricon or that two point conversion,
he could have cut and made it a little easier
to get in. But I think he knew if I cut,
there's a chance my ankle doesn't hold up. So I'm
just gonna I gotta go straight through him. And it
was really cool to see, like, Hey, I'm willing to
do this, put this on the line in a bowl game.
It doesn't really matter, it doesn't really count. So I
just thought it was showed a lot of heart as
a fan, it was. It was an awesome moment.
Speaker 2: Speaking of going straight through Michigan, Kyle Whittingham. Kyle Whittingham
is trying to go straight through byus down, trying to
take Jay hillen whoever else maybe wants to go along
your thoughts and all the reports about that. Do you
think Michigan will end up taking j Hill? Do you
think by you will retain him? Sounds like boy is
trying to make a push to keep Jale in provo
rightfully sell your thoughts on everything going around with the
news related to Jay Hill.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I my thoughts are I think Jay was great
for us, and I'm sad that he's I think most
likely gone. I don't know if it'll come middle of
the Hill stay, but let's just for the tens the
purposes that he has gone, We're gonna miss this. But
I do think he got a little bit too much
credit for the program in general. I think a lot
there are fans out there that think that Klony is
just a puppet for j Hill on the back back
end doing stuff. And because all of a sudden we
started getting good when Jay was here, well, people don't
remember that in twenty twenty twenty one we won ten
plus wins and then also the same thing that happened
at the same time that Jay got higher was the
same time we got We got him to the Big twelve,
so recruiting automatically got easier. He had more resources. We
who got j Hill here Klanie did. I'm not worried
because I think in Colonia trust and I think we're
gonna get there. There could be a short term, you know,
a little bit of gamper there that if if he
leaves and look, you know I know this, Hey Rob
Rivers too, it's both of them left. Next year could
get a little sicy because you don't know who follows
them to the portal and things like that. But long term,
you know, next two to three years, I'm not worried
about the program. As long as Colone is the helm
and there's the investments from the from the boosters, the donors,
all those different places. I don't think we're I'm gonna
I'm in a super nervous standpoint. I was really nervous
when Colone was thinking Penn State, but I'm not crazy
nervous now.
Speaker 5: It is interesting that that you say that. I do
have to disclaim though, for everyone listening, this is also
the same guy who believes b Yu's going twenty and
oh every season even though the schedule, so.
Speaker 8: Hey, hey, I'd rather be happy before the season and
then have it be worse than going and and be
thinking that I'm miserable my whole life, and then hope
that they actually prove me wrong that the situation.
Speaker 5: Though, I wish that I was as positive as Braidon Day,
like I wish you would be, because I wish I
could sit there saying I watched the pop starts ball
and the whole time I was like, no way we lose.
There was a part of me that was like, I
don't know, man, I think we're gonna lose. But I think, like,
I don't think there's as very many BYU fans like
Braidon Day, because Braidon I'd be willing to bet you
watched both Texas Tech games and you probably thought BYU
was gonna win all the way until the third quarter.
Speaker 8: Well, I will say that the second game in the
conference championship game, when we were still not by six,
it was not looking great, but we and Fire, you know,
right there close enough. But I felt like we had
a chance. I don't know that I felt optimistic though,
because that's the difference Technic Tech we we were getting
even if the score was still staying tight because the
defense was keeping them from scoring so much. But I
just felt like in the Georgia Tech game, the field
like it was obvious that we were actually dominating the situation.
We just weren't actually capitalizing when when it counted so valid.
I'm not always positive. There are times I'm a negative
a little bit, okay, just not I'm more positive than
negative for sure, So well.
Speaker 5: I want to lean on that positivity there, Brandon, tell
me what makes you optimistic?
Speaker 2: What are you looking.
Speaker 5: For for b U Yu to go out and grab
in the transfer.
Speaker 8: For well, and before maybe maybe jump in on that
last conversation with this one, I think the person the
coach that I'm most worried about if we lost is
actually Jennaral Guildford. I think you guys have talked about
this in the LID is. I think I think coach
GS is somebody who, being a double minority being in
a situation where he played at Yu, he can recruit
in that position so well and and develop. I mean,
look at Schmev. He was nobody. He was a receiver,
walk on receiver coming in and aloquit. He is and
so I don't want coach g leaves because I think
if Coach g leaves, then when there's a chance that
a lot of those guys in that room follow, I
personally don't think if and when Ja goes, there's gonna
be that many. I think there will be a couple.
I think, like fall Touse up the wall. I think
he's a big j Hill guy, so I think he
probably ends up going. I think there's probably a couple more.
But I think I'm more worried about replacing Coach g
than I am anybody any other coach on the staff.
SAMs Klonnie.
Speaker 2: Good point. Good thing. Look, Brandon Gurney was to one
of the credit dam was the one to put the
tweet out there, and I backed it up. And when
he brought it up to me was we were down
there in Orlando and then put it on social media.
I was like, I'm not even gonna hesitate. The double
minority at BYU matters. It doesn't matter at Michigan. But
that helps. That helps guys, I mean, look to be
able to bring guys like Trey Jonathan Cabaya, to bring Schmev,
to get him to come to the other side. Of
the ball. As you mentioned, that means something that matters,
and to lose that that will hurt. The cornerback is
one of the toughest positions to recruit in college football
in general, but especially at BYU. You just think of
what Gennaro's been able to do the longest tenure coach
on Koilanne's staff, Like he wanted to be here and
he got He got promoted to defensive pass game coordinator.
Do you think that they could retain him though? If
Jo decided to leave, yeah, you will want him. But
if Klan he's like, hey, Gennaro will make you h
d C. Do you think that g would take that
pay raise and stay at BYU now that he's the
guy and he could call uh call plays the way
he wants to recruse the way he would like to.
Speaker 8: I think so. I think that's possible. I hope that
they're willing to keep him for that, or even maybe
you did. Maybe there's another guy that Coloney wants is
as a defensive coordinator. But maybe you make Jay Iban,
make coach g the II the head coach. Maybe you
give him that title or do something to get him
to retain him. I think he is the most important
coach to keep, and I think they'll do it. I
think Colone will get him to stay. And I think
I think coach g has shown, obviously being the longest
ten year kuy on the staff, that he wants to
be here if we can make it make sense.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to make it make sense. Has to
work out, lots to work out, lots. Will see what happens. Uh,
we'll discuss this. We did talk trams report obviously, but
it seems like the like Bretta said this couple of
questions ago, but the backup quarterback is not problem. You
had to anticipate that when Micha Hills that lost a
job to Bear Bachmeyer, that he was gonna leave. Maybe
people just in fans aren't thinking about it because of
how where Bear was playing in the wins. But now
it's a serious issue. You're gonna have him. So I
think Enig Watson's gonna come in, but he's coming off
of a mission and he got Trayson Borgay, that's gonna
be tough. Raydon. How do you go get a guy
to say, hey, look, you're not really gonna start over
this this true sophomore, but it also needs to be approven.
I think veteran guy unless Tracon's the one that can
get it done, because if if Bear goes down now
that there's nobody behind him, there's some fear there in
that quarterback room.
Speaker 8: Now, yeah, and I think Trason, if Traycon stays, I
feel pretty confident and comfortable in that position. Not because
I think Trayson's a world beater. I think he's great, though,
I think he's a very very low floor guy, or sorry,
a high floor guy. And I don't think very many
programs have number two quarterbacks that are ready like that
have played it, had a ton of experience there. And
then I think Enik Watson is the guy that has
high upside that maybe not quite there yet. And so
I think having those two behind Bear really make me
feel pretty dang comfortable, honestly. Obviously, if there's somebody in
the portal that's willing to come and sit behind the guys,
but it's just hard to go out in the portal
and and grab somebody who wants you're basically telling them, hey,
we want you to come and be the backup. I
just don't know how many most people go to the
portal for more playing time so I think we're gonna
have to settle with those guys. But as long as
we can keep tracon like, if it got down to
where it's just Eni, you just have no idea what
he is gonna pan out like because he just got
home a couple of months ago. But I feel comfortable
that if we keep tracing Anya, I'm not super super
worried about it.
Speaker 5: Are you more concerned more needy in the quarterback depth
room or the running back to death room?
Speaker 8: Running back? For sure? Yeah, for sure, if you if
you get LJ, if you get LJ back, that does
obviously shore that up. And I'm probably a bigger MO
believer than the average vau fan. I think there's some
others on our on team's team MO also, but I
think has obviously been hurt enough this year. I think
his department syndrome was blooky enough to I don't think
you can count that, but let's just say you can't
trust him. I do think there's a huge drop off
between RB one and two and then RB three, four,
and so I think we're definitely gonna want to go
get a guy in the portal for running back, even
if Lj's back, and if LJ is gone, then you
really got to go hard in the portal and get
two guys I think to build comfortable to because we're
always down to RB three or RB four by the
end of the year in depths. Obviously LJ came back,
but he wasn't even fully helping at the end of
the year.
Speaker 5: So do you think by you can run it back
with Bear Bachmaer being your second leading rusher.
Speaker 8: I think he's built to be able to handle that. Obviously,
he got hurt and that's not good and then as there,
but I think he's built to withstand that and be
a pretty good I don't know if you wanted to
be in terms of like total yardage be the number two,
but I think him being in that two or three
zone isn't the worst thing because it's what keeps people
on us on the defense if he is running it
or not. But I think finding a way to find
that balance is a good thing. And I think having
an RB judent's comfortable. And I think if Sion was
healthy all year, I think probably has a pretty similar
yardage to what Bear had this year, and Bear probably
takes a little bit of less yarage and l Jacobs
is any the less yardage there, so I think they
want would want Bear to be a little bit less.
But I think he's gonna be right there in the
arby or you know, rushing yards number two or three
every year he's planning.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't like I'm not not a BA believer.
I just look at the reality of the situation in
terms of how many games he's missed. That make me
feel like, hey, you may need to go get somebody
else in the portal just in case that pattern continues
to occur and you don't.
Speaker 2: Have him again.
Speaker 8: Yeah, And I think that's totally fair, and that's why
I'm finding with it. My thing is some people think that, oh, well,
we don't have a big enough sample, say, I think Siona's
gotten I think he's between getting sixty carries on his career,
which isn't a crazy amount, but it's sill pretty good about.
And he's averaging five point one yards per carry, which
l j's a like five point two or five point
three like he's he's he's totally like performed when he's
gotten opportunities. So it's the only thing that makes me
think he can't be a true RB two like, very
very confident. RB two is just injuries but compartments into
so fluky that I have a hard time holding that
against him this year, And he only missed three games
the year before, four games the year before, So I
don't think it's the end of the world that he's
like this crazy, you know, injury prone guy. It just
puts fluky he's last two years. But I think you
have to go get another guy that you can just
in case it is something that the pattern is there
and he actually is naturally injury prone.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, look I like what they have. I like
all of those guys there. I think they do need
to go get a guy or two just because of depth.
I think Logan pain and made the trip as well,
So maybe they'll they only go get one guy and
they'll give other guys an opportunity Jovessa to me or
in his spot. So there's lots of discussions. This is
what this time is now, is to discuss what moves
need to be made. But brainon tell us one more time.
A lot of people need to make the move to
Odion Mints where and the gift card deals you guys
got going on in the clearance Rock one more time.
Speaker 8: Yeah. So I love what Ben always says, let us
earn your business, Like I truly believe in our product.
With missionaries, we give that premissionary gifts. We give a
free shirt to prepare socks. I'm so confident in the
stuff that you're gonna go home, wash it, wear it,
try it, and you're be like, man, I can't live
without it. I can't do that with a suit. The
more you know the suits, the prices there are, I
can't just give you a free one and then you
come back and buy five of them because that's just
not the way suits work. But honestly, if I could,
if there was a way to make that make sense,
I would do it because I believe in that suit
so much that you're gonna come in, wash it, you're
gonna wear that, You're gonna be able to feel the
confidence that you feel in that, but also the ability
to move around in it and look good, feel good,
do good that you're gonna want to come in. So
that's our that's our you know, that's really the pitch
for the store of the company, you know, the company
as a whole, is that our product looks good but
are also so comfortable and feels good. In terms of deals,
we've got that gift card deal where we're doing twenty
percent off gift cards, which basically can get you twenty
pri zample of purchase. If you buy a gift card
tonight online, you come in and use it tomorrow, you've
