fashion that you were like wow, like b Yu is

35
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,519
the real deal. They're not just skirting by by the

36
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:53,040
you know, by the skin of their teeth here. They

37
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,719
are a legitimate contender this year, not a pretender. Is

38
00:01:57,799 --> 00:02:00,519
some analysts want to put out, what was your reactually

39
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:01,359
watching this game?

40
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 3: Be Pop?

41
00:02:03,879 --> 00:02:06,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was the most complete victory we

42
00:02:06,959 --> 00:02:09,319
have seen since the way you entered in the Big

43
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,319
twelve and I thenk Lawne's soon as much was true.

44
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,439
All three phases played really well. I mean, the only

45
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,879
real hiccup was that punt that the punter dropped the

46
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,240
ball for some reason and it didn't punt. It kind

47
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,240
of an odd still there, but uh, I said to

48
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,400
that everything was functional, clean and excusing us. We would

49
00:02:27,439 --> 00:02:31,479
have anticipated that too. And then we saw tremendous growth

50
00:02:32,439 --> 00:02:35,680
and Bear. I mean because basically what Ronick did is

51
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,240
he said, you know what, we're gonna use the quick

52
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,000
passing game and also movement when we're moving the pocket

53
00:02:42,039 --> 00:02:45,560
with bear and then stretched and then the sply suites

54
00:02:45,599 --> 00:02:49,680
with a you know, with the man I keep number eleven,

55
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,520
my guy, and I mean hid me, my god, who's

56
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,759
umber losing the game? Yeah, Parker Parker there is was like,

57
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,400
uh and then we're you know, running though sly sweets

58
00:02:58,479 --> 00:03:01,400
of Parker and even Tiger got involved in one too,

59
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:02,879
and that stretches the.

60
00:03:02,879 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 5: Defense wider, and so you've got I mean it just

61
00:03:06,159 --> 00:03:09,240
the play calling was perfect, but then put it on

62
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,840
there to say, all right, we need you to basically

63
00:03:12,319 --> 00:03:15,280
closen this defense up before then we could start to.

64
00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 2: Run the ball right at him. That was majeally huge

65
00:03:18,719 --> 00:03:21,280
because the show two things. Hey bear is capable, you

66
00:03:21,319 --> 00:03:24,599
can put that load on them, and then when that happens,

67
00:03:25,159 --> 00:03:27,199
we are a very difficult offense.

68
00:03:27,439 --> 00:03:27,719
Speaker 3: Stuff.

69
00:03:27,759 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 2: And just so everybody knows the history behind using the

70
00:03:31,439 --> 00:03:35,560
pass to set up the run, that's West Coast Football

71
00:03:35,719 --> 00:03:38,000
ladies and gym and that's going back to our roots

72
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,960
at the YU. You know, that's what the forty venders

73
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,199
did for so long, and that's what these offensive coordinators

74
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,840
continue to do. And now that we can, but you

75
00:03:45,919 --> 00:03:47,400
got to have a quarterback to can throw the ball

76
00:03:48,199 --> 00:03:49,719
and do it really well and do it on the

77
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,960
move like there was, and then all of a sudden,

78
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,199
everything else opens up. And that defense, I hope everybody understands.

79
00:03:56,199 --> 00:04:00,599
The context is Texas Tech defense is a head That

80
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,439
defense is a nine eight and a half nine. There

81
00:04:03,479 --> 00:04:05,240
were a really good defense, and look what we were

82
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,560
able to do to them so offensive that in the

83
00:04:07,639 --> 00:04:11,280
case the defensively, our d line in front seven continue

84
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,240
to just show up. I mean they are. I mean

85
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,240
we played more light boxes to get that offense than

86
00:04:19,439 --> 00:04:22,680
I think most people realize, and we handled their running

87
00:04:22,759 --> 00:04:26,839
game sufficiently with that, you know, with the with the

88
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,759
the boxes where we're out numbered with those light boxes,

89
00:04:29,879 --> 00:04:32,519
which it's very rarey you're able to do that, and

90
00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:35,000
that's a big, physical offensive line that wants to run

91
00:04:35,079 --> 00:04:38,079
the rope, run the ball right at you. And then

92
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,480
in addition to that, we were just constantly getting Oover

93
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,000
off the spot making him uncomfortable, which is that that's

94
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,680
the problem for him, which was evident. His accuracy goes

95
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:51,680
down and his his his ability to navigate the punkins compromise,

96
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:53,959
and that's and he's just not really good when they

97
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,839
do that. And he had one of the worst games

98
00:04:56,879 --> 00:04:58,680
of this of his career. And this guy's a heck

99
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,839
of the thrower. So we made it pretty dark, good TV,

100
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,560
but really really bad. And then I mean we broke them,

101
00:05:05,879 --> 00:05:07,800
you know, nine minutes ago in the fourth corner they're

102
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,000
playing the ball. It's over. You know that that was

103
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,199
the heck of a win because basically we just you know,

104
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:14,560
we meet them in the sufficient.

105
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,399
Speaker 3: That was pretty impressive, pretty crazy to watch. It was

106
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:24,920
a complete game. Finally Kilani got the most out of

107
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,319
all three facets and it led to a dominating victory.

108
00:05:30,199 --> 00:05:33,800
Who were you most impressed by on the defensive side

109
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:34,199
of the ball.

110
00:05:34,319 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 2: This week.

111
00:05:34,759 --> 00:05:37,639
Speaker 3: Would you say, is there any standouts from the AUL

112
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:38,199
twenty two.

113
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,519
Speaker 2: Well, our secondary continues to play well, you know on

114
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,920
our safety especially, you know, I mean they've been excellent

115
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,160
throughout the year. Tenorwall I finally had his pick six,

116
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,279
you know, which was kind of a volleyball playing but

117
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,199
still a pick six it was. And then the two

118
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,399
guys that I keep really seeing a lot of growth from.

119
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,120
In addition to all the guys up every week, you know,

120
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,879
Jack Kelly, Isaiah JT a ton of awesome. You got

121
00:06:05,959 --> 00:06:11,160
Logan there body really he also got the one hundred playing.

122
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,800
You know, those guys that they we got the week

123
00:06:12,879 --> 00:06:16,040
and showed great consistency in addition to the guys in

124
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,319
the secondary. But the guys that are really starting to

125
00:06:19,399 --> 00:06:21,600
jump off the table for us is Noosy number five

126
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,519
and tw Seay number thirteen. Their speed and thresh ability

127
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:30,720
is creating problems. It adds a really nice speed the

128
00:06:30,879 --> 00:06:36,040
power element to our defense. Accelerate sness, twitchiness. I want

129
00:06:36,079 --> 00:06:37,720
to tell you, I mean there's so many plays that

130
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,800
how ceedy aid DEnumber thirteen with his speed and his

131
00:06:41,879 --> 00:06:44,839
physicality that you're just like, we got guys, and I

132
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,040
keep telling people that we got guys. Well, I see

133
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,519
those two dudes simp a rally corner. It's like we

134
00:06:50,639 --> 00:06:53,480
got guys, we got so those two guys that keep

135
00:06:53,519 --> 00:06:55,759
seeing that you know a lot of you know, obviously

136
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,319
Newsey had a big fact there to basically shut the

137
00:06:58,399 --> 00:07:01,519
game down. Does a close out sack, and then I

138
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,240
mean for most two guys, man, they continue to o

139
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,839
they and when when you have that kind of play

140
00:07:07,519 --> 00:07:10,680
fixed in with Hunter Logan, our guys in the middle,

141
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,560
off the ball backers or you know, all American caliber

142
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:17,439
guys and Jack Kelly and I and Glaster, Isaiah Glaska,

143
00:07:17,439 --> 00:07:19,879
A wow, it's a it's a heck of a front seven.

144
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,720
And then you mixed in the secondary play. That's that's

145
00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:23,439
a great that's a really good defense, you know. And

146
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,000
then you got Jay and his staff doing a nice

147
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,240
job calling the game. I loved it. I loved how

148
00:07:28,279 --> 00:07:31,959
it comes the game. I thought it was really well done. Uh.

149
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,959
They give a lot of stimulated glitches like the sack

150
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,519
and EJ that was the simulated pressure. We were going

151
00:07:37,519 --> 00:07:39,160
to the corner blitz, but we ended up playing rushing

152
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,839
four and they didn't have anybody to account for J

153
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,920
and we and again we you know, create a problem

154
00:07:44,079 --> 00:07:46,839
and that's just Jay stedding it up, you know, as

155
00:07:46,879 --> 00:07:48,720
the game goes on to where he throws a little

156
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,879
proof off, but we're not overexposed on the back end

157
00:07:50,879 --> 00:07:53,199
because we're still in the rushing four. That's just that's

158
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,240
beautiful stuff, man, really fun to watch.

159
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, offensively, I thought the bounce back from from the

160
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,160
Texas Tech game to the TCU game was just monumental.

161
00:08:05,399 --> 00:08:09,040
Shout out to a Rod for bouncing back. And TC's

162
00:08:09,079 --> 00:08:11,360
a good defensive team, right like when you were watching

163
00:08:11,439 --> 00:08:13,079
this as you were prepping for it, like I thought

164
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,240
TC was a pretty good defensive team. Uh. They they

165
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:21,160
they've held some teams to low scoring efforts and their

166
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,439
rush defense had been good and then d Wayers came

167
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,879
out and just was dominant at the line of scrimmage.

168
00:08:27,279 --> 00:08:29,399
What what stood out to you about the play calling,

169
00:08:29,519 --> 00:08:31,720
the offense, and maybe even the personnel that you were

170
00:08:31,759 --> 00:08:32,480
most impressed by.

171
00:08:34,039 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you gotta remember, like you know, PCU, they

172
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:42,480
got two really good defensive tack was big, uh, hard

173
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,559
to move. They remind me a lot of the guys

174
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,360
in the Texas tecond some ways. They're just as good

175
00:08:46,399 --> 00:08:49,200
as the guys in Texas tecond we're really other than

176
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,120
a couple of plays where they they basically the middle

177
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,360
of the block. What was where pair got hit they

178
00:08:54,399 --> 00:08:57,279
actually highlighted in the DD coffy but with a completed

179
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,480
mass to the park right league. Other than that, I mean,

180
00:09:01,519 --> 00:09:03,639
we were really good against them. But the biggest thing

181
00:09:03,879 --> 00:09:06,639
Heron did, which this is to me, what always has

182
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:11,320
made him so hard his offense is so hard to defend,

183
00:09:12,519 --> 00:09:15,120
is he gets you moving horizontally. And that's that's what

184
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,519
a zone blocking style offense is meant to do, is

185
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,559
get the defense moving horizontally. Now you're stretched out. Now

186
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,120
it really doesn't matter how big or how fast you are,

187
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,320
because now you're not moving north the south. You're not

188
00:09:27,399 --> 00:09:29,480
trying to say, you know, you're not trying to just

189
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,080
like fold your ground. What you're trying to do when

190
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,120
you're moving east and west or being expanded horizontally, is

191
00:09:35,159 --> 00:09:39,000
you're trying to move instinct with your other defenders, which

192
00:09:39,039 --> 00:09:42,639
is virtually impossible. And what happens is you have natural

193
00:09:43,039 --> 00:09:46,320
gaps that start to get created because everybody these are

194
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:49,080
moving to the lessons is right, and you're trying to

195
00:09:49,159 --> 00:09:52,200
keep everybody kind of walked in and you know, creating

196
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,360
a fence, and then that's where all of a sudden

197
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,320
you get these gaping holes. And you know what I thought,

198
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,240
LJ was looking healthy, looking like a sprice off. It's

199
00:10:01,279 --> 00:10:04,519
beautiful jump cuts, footwork, then explosiveness when he saw a

200
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,399
little alleyway, and then finishing runs not letting the good

201
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,200
first guy tackle him. The whole thing was very well

202
00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:13,919
put together. And like I said, the key was Bear.

203
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,639
Bear being able to throw the ball and move and

204
00:10:16,759 --> 00:10:20,120
throw is what makes all of that come to come together.

205
00:10:20,279 --> 00:10:22,360
Because now it's like you got to defend that plus

206
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,120
Bear running the ball, plus our inside zones, outside zone,

207
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:26,919
then you got to fly sweep. And so you could

208
00:10:27,039 --> 00:10:30,240
literally with a with one any play you could fake

209
00:10:30,279 --> 00:10:33,960
a fly sweep, read option, throw it or run it,

210
00:10:34,399 --> 00:10:36,559
and your defense and that defense if you're getting beat

211
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,879
by the fly sweep, getting beat by the quarterback throwing

212
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,120
and moving all of a sudden, the last thing on

213
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:42,879
your mind a lot of times when you're reacting to

214
00:10:43,039 --> 00:10:45,240
that action, which is a fake fly sweep, and then

215
00:10:45,279 --> 00:10:48,159
the readoption is well, we better like take care of

216
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,879
what's gonna most afflict us, which is the past and

217
00:10:50,919 --> 00:10:53,200
all of a sudden, the boom there's huge gaps you know,

218
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,639
to in the running game or boom, he keeps the

219
00:10:55,639 --> 00:10:58,279
ball and runs it for that touchdown. And it's just

220
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,360
all complimentary in terms of how it fits and there's

221
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,080
layers to it. It's just it's really it's a beautiful

222
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,679
thing to watch because you could you can sense it.

223
00:11:06,759 --> 00:11:09,639
The announcers even mentioned in the game that TC was

224
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,240
just constantly on their heels their defense. They had no

225
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,559
read whatsoever on our offense as to what we are

226
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,320
going to do. And everything we did in terms of

227
00:11:18,399 --> 00:11:20,879
fakes that were was influential to the defense. They were

228
00:11:20,919 --> 00:11:23,600
biting them because it was hurting them and so yeah,

229
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,240
that was one of the like to me, it was

230
00:11:25,279 --> 00:11:28,279
a masterclass of coordinating by Roderick and his staff. It

231
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:29,000
was impressive.

232
00:11:30,879 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's uh, it's fun to watch by you finally

233
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,840
get a little style points in their corner. I know,

234
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,639
Kalaniy said post game, he doesn't he's not much for

235
00:11:39,799 --> 00:11:43,200
style points. He's too classy for style points. He doesn't

236
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,240
want to you know, maybe stomp on a throat. Uh,

237
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,279
you know, he wants to keep it classy. But man,

238
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,559
this day and age, it seems like you need some

239
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:56,279
style points, especially as they they heavily weight these algorithms

240
00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:01,320
and scoring margins and wins UH in a a convincing fashion.

241
00:12:01,399 --> 00:12:05,159
Look at how popular Utah is from the committee side

242
00:12:05,159 --> 00:12:08,480
of things, because they're winning it at UH at an

243
00:12:08,519 --> 00:12:12,639
astronomical rate, in an astronomical margin each and every single game.

244
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:13,960
Do stop points matter this.

245
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 2: Day and age? No, they don't matter. I think it's

246
00:12:17,039 --> 00:12:20,320
just this. You gotta remember, the whole ranking system is

247
00:12:20,399 --> 00:12:24,879
a really good way to make money to keep people entertained.

248
00:12:25,919 --> 00:12:28,960
And ultimately they're gonna they're gonna very heavy towards Big

249
00:12:29,039 --> 00:12:31,000
ten or to Day and the SEC.

250
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 3: We all know that.

251
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,759
Speaker 2: Why, because there's money. It's a money grab, right, The

252
00:12:34,879 --> 00:12:37,480
more viewers you get per game, the more money each

253
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,120
station gets. The committee knows that, and so what they're

254
00:12:41,159 --> 00:12:43,120
doing is they always want to change the goal post.

255
00:12:43,159 --> 00:12:45,559
So now what we've done is we've been convinced by them.

256
00:12:45,799 --> 00:12:48,480
Oh you know, uh. I think they call it like

257
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,799
game control is a big factor for them, and like

258
00:12:51,879 --> 00:12:53,679
you're talking about style points, how much you went by

259
00:12:54,159 --> 00:12:56,879
and they may be even rewarding some teams based off

260
00:12:56,879 --> 00:12:59,440
of that, But it's really not about that. Uh, then

261
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,320
they're all the and say, well it's about straight to schedule,

262
00:13:02,399 --> 00:13:04,720
you know, like who have you beat? Okay? You know,

263
00:13:04,919 --> 00:13:07,080
then then they'll they'll maybe rewards some teams from now,

264
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:09,440
but like I said, really, when it comes down to it,

265
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,440
they're gonna always favor the teams that are gonna draw

266
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,919
the biggest crowd. And the system set up to where

267
00:13:16,159 --> 00:13:18,240
like twenty says that I've always said this, it's got

268
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,440
to just win your games. You know, you got to

269
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,639
play this out on the field, and it's not done

270
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,240
by style points. This is just go win your games.

271
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,799
Like right now, this is the chance you go show

272
00:13:28,039 --> 00:13:30,799
what you're made of against Cincinnati. This is a quarterfinals game.

273
00:13:30,799 --> 00:13:33,480
It's gonna get you into the conference championship game. Win

274
00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:35,919
the game, You win the game, you're in the conference

275
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,519
championship game. Now you've got a chance to go win

276
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,320
the conference and then at that point you're gonna be

277
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:43,919
in the play You know, you're in the playoffs, you're

278
00:13:43,919 --> 00:13:45,960
in the tournament. Anything can happen in any tournament. If

279
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,559
anybody's ever been in tournaments, they are surprising. I mean,

280
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,639
you saw the Uyu soccer almost lose to I don't

281
00:13:50,639 --> 00:13:52,679
know if you guys got the women's socker. I just

282
00:13:52,759 --> 00:13:55,519
was watching it because my daughter was doing the plot reporting.

283
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,039
But man, they almost lost Utah State and Utah State

284
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,960
during the regular season got destroyed bur By and b Right, girls,

285
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,559
it's the same thing, So just get into the tonament.

286
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,279
I think his mentality is, Hey, we just got to

287
00:14:05,279 --> 00:14:06,799
get into the championship, but I don't care how we

288
00:14:06,879 --> 00:14:09,480
do it, and that will be what ultimately is going

289
00:14:09,519 --> 00:14:11,720
to determine our destiny versus all these stout points and

290
00:14:11,759 --> 00:14:14,480
should we run the score and do like who cares

291
00:14:14,879 --> 00:14:17,240
go win? And that's why this system is really good

292
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,000
right now because the ultimate thing that you're gonna get

293
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,440
rewarded with and this system is if you win, question

294
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,600
to be when your conference. So I think the focus

295
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,200
is in the right place and hopefully it continues to

296
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:28,960
be in that place. They go to Cincinnata. This way

297
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,879
you can face a heck of an opponent on the road.

298
00:14:31,279 --> 00:14:33,960
It's gonna be a really you know, hostile environment, and

299
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,519
everybody knows what's at stake. It's a quarterfinals game for

300
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,000
the conference championship game.

301
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 3: Brady, what do you feel is like the true ranking

302
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,519
of BYU football this year. You know ball, You've seen

303
00:14:47,559 --> 00:14:52,159
a lot of football, and so I want to get

304
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,279
your persuaded. I was chatting with Hank Bachmeyer about this,

305
00:14:54,399 --> 00:14:56,519
and he's like, do you think that BYU is a

306
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,080
top five team? I'm like, I don't know if I'm

307
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,080
convincing their top five team yet, but I feel like

308
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,480
they're in that six to fifteen area where they can

309
00:15:04,679 --> 00:15:07,840
beat and compete with just about anybody in the country.

310
00:15:07,919 --> 00:15:08,559
How do you see it?

311
00:15:10,039 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, what I'm saying, well, I mean I'm not a

312
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,399
big rankings guy, just because, like I said, the system

313
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,559
set up now where we can play everything out. You

314
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,200
know you can because you can because all these rankings

315
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,200
are always trying to use like, you know, similar opponents

316
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,879
head to head matchups, which like, let's think about it,

317
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,919
if Texas Tech had to come to b y U

318
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,600
play a night game, there's a very good chance that

319
00:15:31,759 --> 00:15:36,399
in provo colder weather. You know, it's just not gonna

320
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,679
it's not the same as on their own turf in

321
00:15:38,759 --> 00:15:43,279
the morning game day at home. This is huge parad

322
00:15:43,399 --> 00:15:46,879
I mean, you know, that's just and it's it's like

323
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,240
you can't you can't sit there and say like well,

324
00:15:49,279 --> 00:15:51,559
he that makes the you know, that's stuff so much

325
00:15:51,639 --> 00:15:54,440
better than you what you can't say that. And that's

326
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,039
why these championship games are all played in neutral site fields.

327
00:15:57,519 --> 00:16:00,000
And that's why it's like everybody, you have the regular

328
00:16:00,159 --> 00:16:01,919
season and then you go to the postseason. You know,

329
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:03,720
I've seen it in the NFL. I mean, I've seen

330
00:16:03,759 --> 00:16:06,240
this so many times with the Giants, you know, in

331
00:16:06,279 --> 00:16:08,399
two thousand and seven when they went on to win

332
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,399
the Super Bowl, we played them in Week four and

333
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,919
in New York, by the way, and we beat them

334
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,240
so bad that we basically were like the game was

335
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,679
over middle of the third quarter, and they ended up winning.

336
00:16:19,679 --> 00:16:22,360
They coming to Lampo, by the way, and the NFC

337
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,200
Championship game, beating us and going on to win the

338
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,240
Super Bowl against the Patriots. So it's like, teams change,

339
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,399
circumstances changed, and so I don't know why we always

340
00:16:30,399 --> 00:16:32,480
are trying to search for these standards of how to

341
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,320
like determine where these teams are ranked without actually just

342
00:16:35,399 --> 00:16:38,320
letting them vote determine that on the field. And that's

343
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,919
what this new system is, you know about let's let

344
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,600
let's let the field to play like when they actually

345
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,039
go play each other in these tournaments. Let's let let

346
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,000
that determine where everybody's ranked. And so based off of that,

347
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,679
I'm not afraid of anybody. I don't care who we play.

348
00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:54,799
I think we have the talent and when we execute

349
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,039
the right way and we play the right way, we

350
00:16:57,159 --> 00:17:01,639
can beat anybody. Anybody, you can put that down. But

351
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,079
so we have the talent, that's my whole point. We

352
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,079
have the talent to beat anybody. It comes down to that.

353
00:17:08,279 --> 00:17:10,400
At the next level is the execution like we saw it,

354
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,680
where see Texas Deck had the same amount of talent

355
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,640
as we have the same as they do. Turns down execution,

356
00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:17,799
and that's how it's gonna be when you play teams

357
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,599
like this weekend since that year. You know, hopefully if

358
00:17:20,599 --> 00:17:22,640
we get the chance to play Texas Deck again, or

359
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,079
hopefully if we get in the tournament, that's what it

360
00:17:24,079 --> 00:17:26,160
comes down to. You gotta be able to execute. And

361
00:17:26,279 --> 00:17:29,519
that's a differentiator. Because we got guys, ladies and gentleman

362
00:17:29,599 --> 00:17:32,079
b Yu has guys, we have the most talent we've

363
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,720
ever had a BYU and we can beat anybody.

364
00:17:34,799 --> 00:17:39,559
Speaker 3: I promise you, how much better will the talent get

365
00:17:40,559 --> 00:17:43,720
over the next few years, Brady, do you see an

366
00:17:43,839 --> 00:17:47,960
elevated talent coming to b YU outside of what is

367
00:17:48,079 --> 00:17:48,759
already there?

368
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 2: Well, look at our young guys. I mean, you got

369
00:17:52,319 --> 00:17:54,359
hunk play, You're getting action, doing some good things on

370
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,279
a couple of good pressures. You got taw c Lee,

371
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,079
you got a new seat. Just three guys right off

372
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:03,559
the top of my head. Studs. They're only gonna get better.

373
00:18:03,839 --> 00:18:05,759
And we got guys and Bedell you we got guys

374
00:18:05,799 --> 00:18:08,079
that have that are being redshirted right now, but I

375
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:12,440
think could be contributors immediately. But I'm assuming I don't

376
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,160
have inside information on this, but I'm assuming that you know,

377
00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:18,359
coaches want to keep them around and they have them

378
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,319
red shirting and they're gonna get better. I mean, everybody

379
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,480
is only I mean, dude, I turned off the Houston

380
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,720
versus US last year's game, the last home game of

381
00:18:27,759 --> 00:18:32,480
the year. KT wasn't even a starter last year and

382
00:18:32,559 --> 00:18:34,599
now he's one of the most dominant defensive linement in

383
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,160
the Big twelve. That's only in like a matter of

384
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,480
like six eight months he developed into that kind of player.

385
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,079
There's gonna be more guys like that, and our studs

386
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,119
right now, they're only going to get better. Bear, Are

387
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,759
you kidding me? There is getting better every single week.

388
00:18:49,519 --> 00:18:51,200
That dude has a chance to be an all time

389
00:18:51,279 --> 00:18:54,240
great Kylever quarterback at YU, which obviously that's saying something.

390
00:18:54,319 --> 00:18:58,240
So just by the not even including an injection of

391
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,720
new talent, just by who we are already have there

392
00:19:00,839 --> 00:19:04,559
and anticipating them continually to develop and and to improve

393
00:19:04,599 --> 00:19:08,440
their game, they're going to be phenomenal. By is recruited

394
00:19:08,519 --> 00:19:11,480
well Ryder Lions, the stud is going to becoming I mean,

395
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,279
this is only going to get more and more and

396
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,359
more impressive as this continued. This is just the beginning.

397
00:19:17,519 --> 00:19:19,440
That's my whole point. This is going to become the

398
00:19:19,519 --> 00:19:21,839
new norm. And there are people that want to come

399
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,559
to YU and they like and I'm talking about guys

400
00:19:25,599 --> 00:19:28,440
that would never when when we were in the you know,

401
00:19:28,559 --> 00:19:32,079
G five kind of rankings and didn't have, you know,

402
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,200
the ability to pay players. You know, these guys would

403
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,599
have gone elsewhere. Now they're coming to us, and so

404
00:19:38,839 --> 00:19:41,240
it's it's going to be a completely different animal, which

405
00:19:41,279 --> 00:19:43,920
is good. So I wouldn't just be getting used to this,

406
00:19:44,079 --> 00:19:46,400
and that makes it to where work can be legitimate

407
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,480
contenders year in the year out as long as we,

408
00:19:49,039 --> 00:19:51,720
like I said, learn how to execute really high packed

409
00:19:52,279 --> 00:19:54,759
are excuse me, high pressure pack situations where we're going

410
00:19:54,839 --> 00:19:55,279
to be fined.

411
00:19:56,559 --> 00:19:59,079
Speaker 3: I want to get philosophical for you with you here

412
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:00,599
for a secon because I know I can delve into

413
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,799
this particular topic with you. There's this, uh, there's this

414
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:08,000
growing movement of maybe individuals that are not b A

415
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,480
fans or even UH anti LDS, but you know some

416
00:20:11,599 --> 00:20:15,000
are LDS and they're just anti b YU. They they

417
00:20:15,079 --> 00:20:17,599
kind of feel like, hey, there's a there's a there's

418
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,680
like a rift and they they between b YU and

419
00:20:21,759 --> 00:20:27,279
the LDS standards and actually paying student athletes, right athletes,

420
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:33,240
students for representing a university's athletic department, football, basketball, whatever

421
00:20:33,279 --> 00:20:37,200
it may be. They feel like there's an immorality to it.

422
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,119
They shouldn't do this. You shouldn't pay for play essentially,

423
00:20:41,559 --> 00:20:45,920
UH for representation, right, That's how they feel. They feel

424
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,519
like BYU Athletics isn't a missionary too. There's a lot

425
00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:52,680
of negative propaganda that comes out from it. The Jake

426
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,480
retz Love situation they'll bring up. They'll bring up the

427
00:20:55,559 --> 00:21:00,559
most recent d d uy of the men's basketball team, right, Like,

428
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:05,160
this isn't positive publicity, there's negative things. This is an

429
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,319
ambassador tool, it's not a missionary tool. When you hear that,

430
00:21:08,599 --> 00:21:12,000
like what's your your reaction and why? You know, the

431
00:21:12,319 --> 00:21:14,759
way the form and fashion that the athletic department is

432
00:21:14,799 --> 00:21:17,880
operating trying to bring in the best talent that wants

433
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,240
to align with BYU is the right thing and is

434
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,039
a moral thing as well.

435
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 2: Well. Morality, I mean, what are we talking about here?

436
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,680
Like is it imral to make money and to capitalize

437
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,799
on your market value? You know, I think that's obviously

438
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:36,000
not in question. There's nothing im moral with that. If anything,

439
00:21:36,079 --> 00:21:39,200
it's it's the right thing to do, because you're contributing

440
00:21:39,319 --> 00:21:42,599
something to society and to a market system that is valued,

441
00:21:43,279 --> 00:21:45,759
and if you're not compensated according to that value, you

442
00:21:45,839 --> 00:21:48,440
will not be in a position to continue to provide

443
00:21:48,559 --> 00:21:53,079
such services or value. So morality wise, yeah, I mean

444
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:58,000
you're going to want to pay your talent, your workers, service,

445
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,039
whatever it is products according to the value it brings.

446
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,799
And and in sports the value comes to basically like

447
00:22:05,599 --> 00:22:09,160
how a market system determines the amount of skill that

448
00:22:09,559 --> 00:22:12,599
specific player brings to a team, you know, And that's

449
00:22:12,799 --> 00:22:15,319
that's very fair. I mean, and then when you're talking

450
00:22:15,319 --> 00:22:17,640
about the mission of BYU, I mean it's being accomplished.

451
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:18,920
I mean, we had a heck of a showing on

452
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,440
Saturday where we are on Fox eleven with our basketball

453
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,319
team that showed that they are also capable of, you know,

454
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,359
winning a national championship, which I don't know if we've

455
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,400
ever said that buy you outside of just being a

456
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,440
scrappy team that Mayson Price and teams, this this team's legit.

457
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,400
You know that that fits to the mission of the university.

458
00:22:36,519 --> 00:22:38,759
I think more close to than when we're just putting

459
00:22:38,759 --> 00:22:40,680
a bunch of guys out there they're scrappers rather their

460
00:22:40,759 --> 00:22:43,759
best and not paying them. The same goes for football.

461
00:22:44,559 --> 00:22:46,720
So I think at the end of the day, I

462
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,920
do believe that the church is seeing that's why we're

463
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,160
really leaning into this and having fun with this, the

464
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,240
value behind the mission of the university and the payment

465
00:22:57,279 --> 00:23:00,880
of players and athletes. That they're allied together and they're

466
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,799
they're they're they're catalyzing each other to do the very

467
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,960
thing that events do, which is bringing the best players

468
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,960
that align with the mission of the university, and then

469
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,400
it helps us become more visible, which that's what the

470
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,799
church wants. And I don't think we've ever been more visible.

471
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,240
I mean, we had Jalen Rose talking about b YU

472
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,200
basketball on a national basketball talk show on Saturday, and

473
00:23:22,279 --> 00:23:24,000
I don't think he's ever made I don't know. It

474
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:25,480
was kind of weird for me to hear they do

475
00:23:25,599 --> 00:23:27,480
come out of this battle, you know what I mean?

476
00:23:27,559 --> 00:23:29,839
Like this is this is new territory. We are as

477
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,960
sending it to new space, which is great and uh

478
00:23:33,599 --> 00:23:36,839
and having to pay players, which look, the university's making

479
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,119
money too, churches making money, so this too is not

480
00:23:39,279 --> 00:23:42,200
like you're paying them and it's just like a donation

481
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,440
to somebody coming and participating in a in a colleague

482
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,440
and athletic sport. No, you're paying them and they're they're

483
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,119
giving you in return something of a head way more

484
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,559
value than just the actual money you spend on that.

485
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,559
So a heck of an investment if you really look

486
00:23:56,599 --> 00:23:56,799
at the.

487
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,079
Speaker 3: Love the comment, it's Brady always love delving into this

488
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,400
stuff with you. Let's get you on again later on

489
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,720
