Speaker 1: Illad O TV. Here our number three live roun Pro Dreams.

22
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:26,159
Speaker 4: Hey, number three, we did it well made it. The

23
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:31,079
third hour is always my favorite. I don't know why.

24
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,079
I think you listen up a little bit. Oh me,

25
00:01:34,159 --> 00:01:37,239
what am I uptight about? I don't know. People get

26
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:38,040
under your skin right.

27
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: Now, though getting I means it. I just think it's

28
00:01:40,359 --> 00:01:45,120
funny that you know there's whatever the narrative is, like,

29
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,359
once they get it, everybody gets it, and it's all

30
00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:51,120
that you hear. Again. I'm not saying that drink might

31
00:01:51,159 --> 00:01:53,799
even I'm not saying he's the top choice right now

32
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,680
for the ustry chop, but like to just continue to

33
00:01:56,719 --> 00:02:00,280
hammer the guy when he's twenty eight and eight and

34
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:02,359
I know the record, Please don't send me the record

35
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,680
again against SEC teams with a winning record. I know

36
00:02:05,719 --> 00:02:08,039
it better than I know my own child's names. At

37
00:02:08,039 --> 00:02:11,639
this point. You got a lot of child I got

38
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,719
a lot of children, lots of children.

39
00:02:13,759 --> 00:02:15,439
Speaker 4: Tough to get those names straight, right, I get that,

40
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,199
But like to say, as a bad coach, it's just.

41
00:02:17,319 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: Infuriating to me. But whatever, we're Kennedy dealing him people here.

42
00:02:21,439 --> 00:02:22,199
I don't know if you know that.

43
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 4: So let me throw another name out at you.

44
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,479
Speaker 1: Nope, not doing it. I don't know.

45
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 4: I don't know.

46
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,759
Speaker 1: You gotta say, and his record, don't give me his

47
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,919
record record? But what's his record? Against SEC opponents, will

48
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:35,599
winning record.

49
00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:38,199
Speaker 4: I'll say the record in the NFL wasn't great.

50
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: Oh, I know you're going, now, what about Brian Daboll.

51
00:02:43,599 --> 00:02:45,479
Speaker 4: I know people saying he's a lot to go to

52
00:02:45,599 --> 00:02:48,520
Penn State. I think that's as alma monitor. Is that right?

53
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,080
Or he's got to connect Yes State somehow?

54
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: But I believe some.

55
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,199
Speaker 4: Guy that has been a very good, offensive minded guy

56
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,319
in the professional leagues. It was also, oh yeah, offensive

57
00:02:59,319 --> 00:03:04,520
coordinator twenty seventeen Alabama that won a national championship. So

58
00:03:04,599 --> 00:03:08,479
he has experience in college. Of course, he's got experience

59
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,319
at the highest level. So I don't know, I hadn't

60
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,520
heard that name. But if LSU Tigers, if we do

61
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,000
believe rightfully so that it's a top three job and

62
00:03:18,039 --> 00:03:23,039
it's oh, if it's Ohio State, Georgia, LSU, then everybody else,

63
00:03:23,319 --> 00:03:24,960
and he wants to come to the college ranks, then

64
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:33,080
why not Rochester is his alma mater. Okay, well there

65
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:33,360
you go.

66
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was a letterman and a two year starter

67
00:03:35,879 --> 00:03:38,560
in football as a what position in Brian dave ball play?

68
00:03:38,639 --> 00:03:49,039
Come on deep snow all right? Jordan safety? What safety? Yep?

69
00:03:50,439 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 4: At Rochester?

70
00:03:51,639 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, man he's only got no.

71
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 4: No.

72
00:03:54,639 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: He was a volunteer assistant William and Mary in nineteen

73
00:03:57,319 --> 00:04:00,319
ninety seven. He was a grad assistant at Michigan State

74
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:02,360
in ninety eight ninety nine, and then he was in

75
00:04:02,439 --> 00:04:07,039
the NFL until twenty seventeen. That one year at Alabama.

76
00:04:07,159 --> 00:04:09,240
Then it was off. It's a coordinator. Yeah, it's been

77
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,159
a while since he's been in in college football. Just

78
00:04:12,199 --> 00:04:17,680
ask the question. Yeah, no, okay, no again.

79
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,439
Speaker 4: Verge announces next LS your head coach, Brian day Ball.

80
00:04:21,959 --> 00:04:26,160
Your feelings would be sad.

81
00:04:27,519 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, not not enough experience in college. It would be nope, nope.

82
00:04:36,399 --> 00:04:38,800
You know you gotta turned off too. It's gonna keep

83
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:39,079
doing it.

84
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,959
Speaker 4: Yep, no turn off itself.

85
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,319
Speaker 1: No, well they must have fixed that off. Okay, that's

86
00:04:46,439 --> 00:04:47,879
for the auto off. I give it a.

87
00:04:52,439 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 4: That one.

88
00:04:53,319 --> 00:05:00,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I told you, I told you no. So no, okay, right, First,

89
00:05:00,879 --> 00:05:06,439
do you know what record is against I do? I do.

90
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:08,879
I've been told my man brand is going to keep

91
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,879
me on top of it. Fell Brandon. What's up, brother?

92
00:05:11,959 --> 00:05:12,399
How you doing?

93
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 4: Hey?

94
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:12,959
Speaker 1: Living?

95
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 4: Oh that's good? All right? Hum? Oh what about Belichick?

96
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:31,000
It's the greatest head coach of all time in the NFL. Yeah, no,

97
00:05:31,959 --> 00:05:32,920
it might be available.

98
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: No, no, no, uh again, Like what I'm looking for,

99
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,519
there's multiple people that could give it to you out there,

100
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,480
Brent Key, Kenny Dillingham. I think John Serrmol gives it

101
00:05:44,519 --> 00:05:46,920
to you as well. Like somebody that's going to attack

102
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:51,439
this job with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind. Somebody that

103
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,199
doesn't have to be convinced or beg to come here.

104
00:05:54,319 --> 00:05:56,959
Somebody that is going to sprint here as soon as

105
00:05:56,959 --> 00:05:59,839
they're offered the job. Somebody that is going to understand

106
00:05:59,879 --> 00:06:02,680
you got to work your ass off at a place

107
00:06:02,759 --> 00:06:05,600
like this or you'll get exposed incredibly fast. We have

108
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:11,120
all seen that you have to have a mindset of

109
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,920
being tough. You have to have a scheme of being tough.

110
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,839
You have to understand that every week you're going to

111
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,199
get the other team's very best. You have to understand

112
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,240
that you are somebody that people want to try to

113
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,319
hunt because you've been a standard for a long time,

114
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,079
for last twenty five years, right, you have to understand

115
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,600
all of those things. You got to understand Louisiana. And

116
00:06:33,639 --> 00:06:35,399
I'm not talking about being from here. I don't care

117
00:06:35,439 --> 00:06:37,439
if you went here. I don't care if you're from Louisiana.

118
00:06:37,439 --> 00:06:41,639
But you have to understand Louisiana. You do, and I

119
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,800
was very hopeful that Brian Kelly did because some of

120
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,560
the things he said about the entire state when he

121
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,240
got here, I don't think by the end of it

122
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,399
he did. Now Coacho actually did understand it, because well,

123
00:06:52,439 --> 00:06:55,040
Coacho was from here. Like I remember having so many

124
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,079
conversations with Coacho off the record, one on one about

125
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,519
like attacking North Louisiana, and it can't just be South Louisiana.

126
00:07:02,519 --> 00:07:04,600
It's got to be the entire state. It's got to

127
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,639
be every corner of Louisiana. They remember those conversations and

128
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,000
like that is that's very factual, Like you do have

129
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,040
to attack the entire state. You have to understand the

130
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,160
entire state. The entire state's different. We all know that.

131
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,560
You'll tell me all the time how different it is.

132
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,879
But you have to understand that. You got to understand that.

133
00:07:21,279 --> 00:07:24,000
You can't, you know, not recruit Shreveport, you can't not

134
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,680
recruit Monroe, you can't not recruit Lafayette, Lake Charles. It

135
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,839
can't just be one area. It's got to be the

136
00:07:30,079 --> 00:07:33,839
entire state. Because there's talent in this entire state. Like

137
00:07:33,879 --> 00:07:37,160
we can make all NFL teams from Shreveport, we can

138
00:07:37,199 --> 00:07:40,079
make all NFL teams from Baton Rouge, from New Orleans,

139
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,480
from Lafayette, and they'd be pretty damn competitive because that's

140
00:07:43,519 --> 00:07:47,000
what this state is. So like, that's what I want

141
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,959
from the next head coach. I really don't even it's

142
00:07:49,959 --> 00:07:54,439
not even necessarily the analytics of this stat and that stat.

143
00:07:54,519 --> 00:07:57,439
It's obviously if you're up for the LSU job, you've

144
00:07:57,439 --> 00:08:00,240
got the resume. I just need to you. You got

145
00:08:00,279 --> 00:08:03,000
to fit like those things because you were lacking in

146
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:04,959
those things. You need those things. That's what you have

147
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,720
to have to be successful here. M h.

148
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:16,279
Speaker 4: And it's just a legit, genuine attitude, genuine personality, genuine

149
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,560
love for being a coach and wherever you are. And

150
00:08:21,879 --> 00:08:23,480
you know, I said it, you know, multiple weeks ago.

151
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,360
It's like, be careful of the slick talkers. The smooth

152
00:08:26,439 --> 00:08:33,000
talking coaches just doesn't mean doesn't mean being a good talker,

153
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,600
and a smooth talker is different to me. The smooth talker.

154
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,360
Some of that you can't really tell put your finger

155
00:08:38,399 --> 00:08:40,679
on if they're like super genuine or not. But I

156
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,919
think all the people that we continuously talk about that

157
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,840
are up on that list are who they are. They

158
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,120
are very genuine people. Whether it's Lane, whether it's Dyli

159
00:08:49,159 --> 00:08:52,600
and Ham, whether there's Drink, whether it's Brent Key. Certainly

160
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,159
some are all over down a two lane, like Baker,

161
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,360
Colvin Sheppard, like all these people that we continue to

162
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,159
talk about. You can tell who that person is. And

163
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,000
I think that and that's that's to me what a

164
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,679
fit is. It's like that person. You know exactly who

165
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,480
that person is. You know that when he says something,

166
00:09:08,519 --> 00:09:12,440
he means it. And that's what I'm looking for because

167
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,279
I don't think we had that for a couple of years.

168
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,200
That's what that's And we don't need to keep like

169
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,799
beating the debt horse on this, so we don't need

170
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,960
to bring any of that stuff back and talk in

171
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,159
depth about it. But like I think that's all we want.

172
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,240
I think it'd be refreshing to have somebody like you

173
00:09:25,279 --> 00:09:27,240
know where you stand. A player knows where they stand,

174
00:09:27,279 --> 00:09:28,919
a coach knows where they stand with that head coach,

175
00:09:29,519 --> 00:09:33,919
and certainly somebody that can handle it when their feet

176
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,159
is put to the fire because certainly here at LSU

177
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,879
there are high expectations and there's high reward if you

178
00:09:38,919 --> 00:09:45,759
had to have success. So I don't know, it's all speculation, buddy, Yeah, Cody.

179
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,039
Speaker 1: Cody asked a question Dillingham and Key or both at

180
00:09:48,039 --> 00:09:49,919
their homeschools, would they really run here? That's what you

181
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,720
have to find out. So you have to find out.

182
00:09:52,759 --> 00:09:53,360
That's the whole point.

183
00:09:53,799 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 4: Kiffin's not running here.

184
00:09:54,879 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: If you exactly if you talk to them, right, you

185
00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:01,480
got to see where they're at and what this job

186
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,000
would mean to them. That's part of the process. Now

187
00:10:04,039 --> 00:10:07,240
Brent's a little bit different because he played at Georgia Tech, right,

188
00:10:07,279 --> 00:10:11,120
So like that's a difference from playing somewhere. We talked

189
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,159
about that yesterday, playing somewhere and just going to school somewhere.

190
00:10:14,759 --> 00:10:17,440
So that's what you have to find out. Like, Okay,

191
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,039
you have that meeting, you set it up. When you're

192
00:10:20,039 --> 00:10:25,000
having those discussions, you've got to see where their mindset is. Again,

193
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,679
Like that's Brahms at Louisville where he played, Like we

194
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,759
talked about it, like all these candidates that feel like

195
00:10:30,759 --> 00:10:34,120
they would fit the job, well, they played somewhere and

196
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,440
look a lot of times, you know you got somebody

197
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,039
that played somewhere they might not be coaching at where

198
00:10:40,039 --> 00:10:42,559
they played. We talked about that with summer all like

199
00:10:42,799 --> 00:10:45,320
is some are all waiting Is Kentucky going to come open?

200
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,840
Are they going to move on from Mark Stoops? And

201
00:10:46,879 --> 00:10:48,720
if they do, is that what John Somemrrol's waiting on.

202
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,799
He canceled his deal with Florida yesterday. We don't know that.

203
00:10:51,879 --> 00:10:53,799
I know it means something, But that's what you have

204
00:10:53,879 --> 00:10:56,120
to find out when you're having those meetings, when you're

205
00:10:56,159 --> 00:10:57,960
having those discussions, if you get on a plane and

206
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,519
you go to timpe Arizona, if you go to Atlanta, Georgia,

207
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,279
Like that's what you have to find out.

208
00:11:06,399 --> 00:11:08,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, And you make a good point when you say,

209
00:11:08,759 --> 00:11:10,759
like you want somebody that's gonna run here, They're not

210
00:11:10,799 --> 00:11:12,279
going to think about it, They're not going to do it.

211
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,240
Like a little bit unrealistic this world. You can't really

212
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,440
do that. Like I'm saying, like Lane's certainly not running here.

213
00:11:19,919 --> 00:11:22,320
He's kind of playing the field, which he should be,

214
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,600
but like he shouldn't be, Like, if you think about it,

215
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,480
Lane shouldn't be making decision right now anyway. He should

216
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,519
be focused on his team that's fighting for a national

217
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,679
championship right now, fighting for an SEC championship right now.

218
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,759
Speaker 1: And that's what I said at the other day.

219
00:11:35,879 --> 00:11:38,039
Speaker 4: Like I think people thought I was crazy, But it's like,

220
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,639
do you want a coach that's gonna leave his team

221
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,360
high and dry in the middle of the season that's

222
00:11:45,399 --> 00:11:48,399
playing for a national championship. I don't know, Like what

223
00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:53,320
message does that send to everybody else. It's like we

224
00:11:53,399 --> 00:11:56,000
talked about, like we talked about today, we get the

225
00:11:56,039 --> 00:11:58,799
example of like, was it you Jordan? I think Jordan

226
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:03,159
gave the example. It's like, you know, you date a

227
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,240
girl that just cheated on her boyfriend, but you think

228
00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:07,960
you're gonna you think it's you're not gonna cheat on you.

229
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,360
I don't know, it's just not a great Like if

230
00:12:15,639 --> 00:12:18,240
he leaves his team, it's going to be an unprecedented

231
00:12:18,279 --> 00:12:22,039
situation like something like this. I'm sure somebody can fact

232
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,600
check me in like they're gonna prove me wrong. But

233
00:12:23,639 --> 00:12:26,320
I don't remember something like this ever happening. You leave

234
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,399
your team that's in a national championship hunt to go

235
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,799
to another team to maybe have the opportunity to be

236
00:12:32,799 --> 00:12:34,240
in a national championship hunt.

237
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,919
Speaker 1: Well, I mean not to the same effect because Ole

238
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,919
Miss is in the playoff right now. Notre Dame was

239
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,679
with an opportunity to make the playoff. THO one, Ryan

240
00:12:43,759 --> 00:12:46,600
Kelly came here like mathematically, Notre Dame still had a

241
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:47,600
chance to make the playoff.

242
00:12:47,799 --> 00:12:49,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm not talking about mathematically.

243
00:12:49,759 --> 00:12:51,879
Speaker 1: This isn't like well, I mean it wasn't crazy. I

244
00:12:51,919 --> 00:12:53,120
mean they were a couple of spots away.

245
00:12:53,279 --> 00:12:56,759
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, Okay, I guess that's similar. It didn't work out.

246
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,399
So to my point, do you want that type of

247
00:12:59,399 --> 00:13:03,559
coach it's going to leave their team? I don't know.

248
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,720
Now maybe the answer is yes. Maybe you're like, well,

249
00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:08,200
where the We're the baddest be in town. No one's

250
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:09,039
gonna cheat on us.

251
00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:13,159
Speaker 3: You.

252
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,759
Speaker 1: Oh, that was a lot of data in you right there. Yeah,

253
00:13:15,759 --> 00:13:18,039
a lot of Dad energy. That was a lot of

254
00:13:18,159 --> 00:13:19,000
Dad energy.

255
00:13:19,279 --> 00:13:21,799
Speaker 4: No cap, no cap.

256
00:13:23,919 --> 00:13:27,080

welcome back to got it?

285
00:15:23,519 --> 00:15:26,879
Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh, Unfortunately, we're not gonna be able to do

286
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:32,200
munchies today because we don't have the normal phone that

287
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,759
we use to bluetooth through the board that we use.

288
00:15:37,279 --> 00:15:41,120
I believe that is in Nashville with a girl or Landra.

289
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,360
So not gonna be able to do mounchies today. Maybe

290
00:15:44,399 --> 00:15:45,679
we can do it tomorrow.

291
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 4: It's a special special phone that does it too, so

292
00:15:50,559 --> 00:15:54,320
it's hard to get two of those. It's it's I

293
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,080
was like at first, I was like, no, it's not.

294
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,600
It's made by Apple. It's called an iPhone with a

295
00:15:59,639 --> 00:16:01,440
lower capital P.

296
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: So we apologize for that. I don't like that. I

297
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,080
don't like not having that ability. We've done that every week.

298
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,720
But maybe we can get that done tomorrow.

299
00:16:11,799 --> 00:16:13,399
Speaker 4: It's like the one thing I look forward to, man,

300
00:16:13,919 --> 00:16:16,080
I mean there's lots of things. I take that wow,

301
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,000
lots of things something wow. Do you know what I

302
00:16:21,039 --> 00:16:25,960
don't look forward to anymore? Talking head coaches?

303
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: Why you don't like getting the full breakdown of profiles?

304
00:16:37,879 --> 00:16:39,279
Speaker 4: Because speculation's fun.

305
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,559
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, let me ask you this is

306
00:16:41,559 --> 00:16:43,639
it going to be somebody that like? So we're talking

307
00:16:43,679 --> 00:16:47,559
about kind of these Core four or five somebody else.

308
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,440
And we always talk about like the betting odds always

309
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,559
being wrong, and like, you know, Kenny Dillingham has become

310
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,720
in vogue because it's the latest name that's been the

311
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,320
top betting odds and he's a hell of football coach

312
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,279
thirty five years old. We've laid it out what he's

313
00:17:02,279 --> 00:17:04,599
done with quarterbacks, what I think he could do here,

314
00:17:04,759 --> 00:17:08,720
and he's quickly becoming my top choice I think to

315
00:17:08,799 --> 00:17:09,799
be the next head coach.

316
00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:10,279
Speaker 4: Yep.

317
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:16,799
Speaker 1: But the last twelve high profile head coaching hires, it

318
00:17:16,799 --> 00:17:19,480
feels like they've all been somebody's kind of been off

319
00:17:19,519 --> 00:17:22,119
the board of the betting odds. I mean, James Franklin

320
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,480
to Virginia Tech is like one of the few times

321
00:17:24,519 --> 00:17:27,359
where it's like as soon as it kind of was

322
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,839
talking about the first time, is like, oh yeah, that

323
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,000
makes all of the sense, right, because like James Franklin's

324
00:17:33,039 --> 00:17:37,039
always dominated Virginia in recruiting half as Penn State, you

325
00:17:37,039 --> 00:17:40,000
know players, it felt like we're from Virginia, He's already

326
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,680
in all those things. Very few times is like you

327
00:17:43,759 --> 00:17:45,519
say the one name and then the one name ends

328
00:17:45,559 --> 00:17:46,319
up being the person.

329
00:17:46,559 --> 00:17:49,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, but there's been so much noise around Lane Kiffin.

330
00:17:50,519 --> 00:17:53,400
It feels like everybody else is a dark horse. Everybody

331
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,759
else is like that could be that person that comes

332
00:17:55,759 --> 00:17:59,119
out of nowhere because the noise over one person, like

333
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:00,960
to me, I don't feel like we've talked about dialing

334
00:18:01,039 --> 00:18:02,559
him enough until the news.

335
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: About Sam Levitt broke.

336
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:08,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, we haven't talked about you know, we've talked about

337
00:18:08,039 --> 00:18:12,599
like the brat Keys and the Broms because of you know,

338
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,039
them being a good head coach and good you know,

339
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,720
certain metrics that you look for, I guess, but but

340
00:18:18,759 --> 00:18:21,440
we hadn't talked about them because they're coaching at the

341
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,000
place they played, and they're loyal to and all these

342
00:18:24,079 --> 00:18:26,720
different things. But like, this has all the makings of

343
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,000
just being someone out of the out of the blue,

344
00:18:29,079 --> 00:18:31,559
like a like a Mickey Loomis first round draft pick,

345
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,640
like somebody you're like, huh, I go.

346
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: I will never ever, ever, ever ever forget. It was

347
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:45,359
like maybe my first year at the station we were

348
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,079
doing and we had just gotten here, we're doing a

349
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,440
draft party. I don't even I don't even remember where

350
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,920
it was, but they paired me and Handy together for like,

351
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,440
cause we know everybody does like two hours here, two hours,

352
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,279
two hours. And so it was me and Handy and

353
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,559
we had the same pick and they make a trade

354
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,440
and Hanny like sits up in his chair. He starts

355
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,960
like tapping me. He's so excited. Saints made a trade, Rachel,

356
00:19:07,279 --> 00:19:11,720
and they're like Mark's dabbingport ed rusher utsa. And the

357
00:19:11,799 --> 00:19:16,920
look on that man's face, the look I will literally

358
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:18,480
never in my life forget.

359
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 4: Oh that's so good.

360
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,519
Speaker 1: I will never forget to look at it.

361
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:22,599
Speaker 4: It's like excited.

362
00:19:22,839 --> 00:19:25,559
Speaker 1: You know, it was not it wasn't you for it,

363
00:19:25,599 --> 00:19:27,319
It was not that so m.

364
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,519
Speaker 4: Well, that's how we felt every year, I felt, Philip,

365
00:19:31,079 --> 00:19:32,920
and I say we. I've only been a Saints fan

366
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,640
for about three months now, how's that going. Well, I

367
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,400
don't know if I'm a fan anymore.

368
00:19:39,839 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 1: Because they're playing back to your front runner. Mm hmmm.

369
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 4: No, I just like I see the pain and misery

370
00:19:49,519 --> 00:19:52,039
that Saints fans have. I don't know if I want

371
00:19:52,079 --> 00:19:54,359
any part of it or not. I just make a

372
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:59,720
decision right now, so this I could feel different. Next tumment, Yeah, I.

373
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,880
Speaker 1: Told you when you started this, like you don't have

374
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,079
to be a fan. Like of the teams were about

375
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,839
like you can. Like I grew up Saints fan for sure,

376
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,599
like you know Von Dunbar and Craig Hayward.

377
00:20:16,279 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 4: But I wanted to buy in to the people that

378
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,359
are listening to want. I wanted to Tolliver.

379
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, Billy Joe Tolliver, Billy Joe.

380
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,319
Speaker 4: I got serious, fomo. You know, I don't want to

381
00:20:27,319 --> 00:20:31,039
miss out with our the people that are great listeners,

382
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:32,079
the people of Louisiana.

383
00:20:32,079 --> 00:20:35,799
Speaker 1: I don't want to miss out on an amazing rebuild.

384
00:20:36,519 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 4: In a run. I want to be part of it.

385
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,599
But then in the same token, I'm also joining the misery.

386
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,400
So I don't know. It's always darkest before the dawn fluid. True,

387
00:20:50,319 --> 00:20:53,319
winter is coming, No, it's already.

388
00:20:53,039 --> 00:20:55,599
Speaker 1: Here, and buddy, we're not in winter right now?

389
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:56,279
Speaker 4: Is coming?

390
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: Yeah? It goes from Game of Thrones to olof Anything

391
00:21:00,039 --> 00:21:05,680
about the summer, Yeah, yeah, famously. So just gotta trust

392
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,759
Mickey that's it. Just got to trust Mickey Limis to

393
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:08,640
make the right decision.

394
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,079
Speaker 4: Gil said he's one of the best in the league,

395
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:15,000
longest tenured for sure for a reason. M h there's

396
00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:18,960
a reason why you're not usually a long tenured gem.

397
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:25,880
Speaker 1: True, he's basically the owner though, So to get back

398
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:32,240
to your favorite subject though, coaching searches. So Desmond Howard

399
00:21:32,279 --> 00:21:35,880
put out a video on social media saying, don't be

400
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,720
surprised if the Texas job becomes open, because Steve Sarkisian

401
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,240
would you know, go elsewhere. And a lot of people

402
00:21:43,279 --> 00:21:45,839
believe he'd be back in the NFL or he's been

403
00:21:45,839 --> 00:21:48,400
an offensive coordinator before and maybe he would take one

404
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,359
of the NFL jobs, and Sarkisian was not a fan

405
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,640
of that. He had a rebuttal where he just I mean,

406
00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:00,400
he came out like guns are blazing and was just

407
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,839
like if you got any question about me and where

408
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,559
I'm at, and blah blah, like hey, you come speak

409
00:22:05,599 --> 00:22:08,480
to me. Chryst o' connie, our athletic director Christale Connie

410
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,319
actually quote tweeted the Desmond Howard tweet and said, this

411
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:17,000
is news to me. Thanks for the insight about Steve Sarkisian.

412
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:21,759
So he has tried to shut down all of the

413
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,519
you know, potential NFL rumors for him. I believe, like

414
00:22:24,559 --> 00:22:26,200
I don't know, if you said, all the clowns or

415
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,359
bozos out there with the information, I don't know where

416
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,799
they get it. But Steve Sarkisian says he's staying put

417
00:22:31,799 --> 00:22:34,359
in Texas because if well, if he didn't, if that is,

418
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,640
you know, something where he's trying to have a smoke,

419
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,359
Like if that job comes open, My god, you imagine

420
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,880
having Texas, LSU, Florida, Auburn, Penn State all open at

421
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:44,440
the same time.

422
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 4: Lane's ex wife and kids will be on another plane.

423
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: You think they'll give like their data birth and their socials. Again,

424
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,519
who always on the plane tail numbers?

425
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,599
Speaker 4: My goodness, they better boost up that server that runs

426
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,119
that flight tracking web site. Can't crash again. We got

427
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,200
coach like coaching searchers are just starting to heat up.

428
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,640
What if it's on the flight track and left in

429
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:08,119
this season?

430
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,839
Speaker 1: What if it's John sumrang to what you don't have

431
00:23:12,039 --> 00:23:14,079
like to tell us he wouldn't be on a flight.

432
00:23:14,079 --> 00:23:17,359
I wouldn't think. Yeah, just drive, I mean it's like

433
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,079
an hour. Yeah, that's the real question. If they go

434
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,960
talk to John Someraw, would they still get on a plane.

435
00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 4: I think you go down there? Yeah for sure, Yeah,

436
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,440
you just go down there. Just you get in the car. Hey,

437
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,319
we'll send a bus for you. John, go down to

438
00:23:36,319 --> 00:23:38,440
the interstate. We'll send you a sprinter van.

439
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, you take a nice sprinter van. You

440
00:23:40,279 --> 00:23:42,759
don't just take your car. Yeah, you get a driver

441
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,480
with a bathroom. Minute, it's one of the RV types,

442
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,920
be it restroom. There's not a bathroom there in a

443
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:55,200
water closet. So that way, like the flight Tracker website

444
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:55,920
wouldn't even know.

445
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,559
Speaker 4: Still, not a lot of people talking about Blake. We

446
00:24:02,759 --> 00:24:09,039
just stopped talking about Kevin Shephard. Go ahead, well, I

447
00:24:09,039 --> 00:24:10,680
think they would both be really good options.

448
00:24:11,799 --> 00:24:14,519
Speaker 1: Look, I the two names that you just said, I

449
00:24:14,559 --> 00:24:18,920
am never going to say they can't do something, no doubt.

450
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,559
I think our listeners know how we feel about those two.

451
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:27,119
I say to young men because I'm old, Yeah, but

452
00:24:27,519 --> 00:24:31,920
you know they're they're full grown adults, adults like we

453
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:37,160
feel strongly about both those guys. And so that's that's

454
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:41,079
another thing that you really have to take into account.

455
00:24:42,079 --> 00:24:45,079
What do you value? Are you valuing the resume? Are

456
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:50,599
you valuing what you're looking for? Because those can be

457
00:24:50,599 --> 00:24:52,839
two different things. Now, if you find somebody with both,

458
00:24:53,079 --> 00:24:55,920
that's utopia. That's what you try to get to. It

459
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,799
doesn't always happen in coaching surges. Sometimes you do have

460
00:24:58,839 --> 00:25:00,640
to take a chance. Sometimes you do have to go

461
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,319
out on a limb a little bit, right, You got

462
00:25:03,319 --> 00:25:06,440
to get into some murky water, if you will. So

463
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,759
that like the committee that's put together, like that's what

464
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,640
they have to in my opinion, established from the very

465
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,839
get go. What are we looking for? What are we

466
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,559
trying to get the guy with the resume? And look,

467
00:25:20,599 --> 00:25:22,000
you just had a guy with a pretty good one.

468
00:25:22,279 --> 00:25:24,000
M Are we trying to get a guy?

469
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 4: You know?

470
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,559
Speaker 1: We're trying to like literally find like the the one

471
00:25:27,599 --> 00:25:30,200
person that exists that can give us both? Are we

472
00:25:30,279 --> 00:25:33,559
looking for somebody that has incredible potential that fits everything

473
00:25:33,559 --> 00:25:35,440
that we need and checks every box that we have here?

474
00:25:36,039 --> 00:25:38,279
Like those are like that has to be defined in

475
00:25:38,319 --> 00:25:40,240
my opinion, like from the very get go, and then

476
00:25:40,279 --> 00:25:43,279
it look if you have to alter off of that,

477
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,200
then you make an audible off of that.

478
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 4: Yeah. And like always there's a counter argument to everything.

479
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,720
There is a devil's advocate to every argument or person

480
00:25:54,759 --> 00:25:56,759
you're gonna have, Like you keep getting hit with a

481
00:25:56,799 --> 00:25:58,720
stat on drink. What what's the stat to say it?

482
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,640
You got to memorize the one with who drink?

483
00:26:01,799 --> 00:26:05,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and sixteen against SEC teams with over five hundred

484
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:06,119
record I believe.

485
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:11,559
Speaker 4: Is in sixteen. Yeah, okay, Elaine Kiffen. So someone said

486
00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:13,839
it in the chat early. I don't remember who I apologized,

487
00:26:13,839 --> 00:26:16,119
but I just like I just looked it up again

488
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,519
to confirmix. I was like Welane Kiffin's eleven and twenty

489
00:26:19,559 --> 00:26:23,200
four versus top twenty five opponents. Like so you can,

490
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,720
you can give all the stats you want. There's coaches

491
00:26:27,759 --> 00:26:30,319
with good records as coaches, you know, some years are good,

492
00:26:30,319 --> 00:26:32,160
some years are bad. Like you got to look at

493
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,480
the overall body of work and their game management.

494
00:26:34,559 --> 00:26:34,839
Speaker 1: There.

495
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 4: They're whether the way they lead a group of men,

496
00:26:39,599 --> 00:26:42,240
what they've done at a particular school. And I don't

497
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,319
think we would look at Eli or Lane Kiffen to

498
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,359
say they hadn't been successful just because they got these

499
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,920
losing records against a certain type of opponent. And you

500
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,119
can hand pick, you can cheerry pick stats and different

501
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,720
guys against top five. I mean, we've we've given the status.

502
00:26:56,759 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: I bet Brian Kellys was really good.

503
00:26:58,279 --> 00:27:00,559
Speaker 4: I bet Brian Kelly is incredible, and we've given this

504
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,240
that about Like you know, Jeff Brahm at Purdue of Louisville,

505
00:27:04,279 --> 00:27:06,880
I think is four and one versus top five opponents.

506
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 1: Really good against top five opponents and always loses to

507
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:10,160
an underring team.

508
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 4: So instead of saying like the good part, you could

509
00:27:12,039 --> 00:27:13,880
be like, well he's you know, well he's three and

510
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,920
twenty five against top twenty five and that's not out

511
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,480
of the top five or whatever. I don't know. You

512
00:27:18,519 --> 00:27:21,079
can cherry pick stuff all you want. Yeah, it's all

513
00:27:21,079 --> 00:27:24,400
about finding personality. It's all about finding a genuine person,

514
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,720
someone that can lead a room, someone that can attract

515
00:27:27,039 --> 00:27:30,839
and attract recruits, not only in the state of Louisiana,

516
00:27:31,039 --> 00:27:33,440
but the people that are already wearing an LSU helmet.

517
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,680
It's about bringing excitement, and certainly the guys that we're

518
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,079
all talking about can do it, but certainly Blake Baker

519
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,400
and Kevin Sheppard could do that part as well. Now

520
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,319
that being a head coach, they've never done it before,

521
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,039
so that's a big question mark. So I understand the

522
00:27:47,079 --> 00:27:50,480
fan that's like LSU is a top job in the country.

523
00:27:50,519 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: We deserve somebody with that experience.

524
00:27:52,279 --> 00:27:55,559
Speaker 4: I get that, And but that's not to say that

525
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,359
if you are good at the process of finding a coach,

526
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,720
it's like being a recruiter, like if you can find

527
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,640
that person that you believe can do the job of

528
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,640
head coach even though he doesn't have that head coaching experience.

529
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,839
If you know, be on a shadow of a doubt

530
00:28:11,079 --> 00:28:12,839
that a guy like Blake Baker, that a guy like

531
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:17,000
Kevin Sheppard can step in and solidify one side of

532
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,839
the team offense or defense, and put good people around

533
00:28:21,839 --> 00:28:24,680
you and lead men and get the best out of

534
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,119
a human being. Every single week when a guy's not

535
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,400
feeling great, can you still get the best out of them?

536
00:28:30,839 --> 00:28:33,000
Can you lead a group from a group full of people?

537
00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:35,720
Can you talk to boosters? And can you get money

538
00:28:35,799 --> 00:28:39,160
from all people from around the state and alumni that

539
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:39,839
want to come back?

540
00:28:39,839 --> 00:28:42,839
Speaker 1: Can you get that money? Can you secure all the

541
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:43,640
people around you?

542
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,799
Speaker 4: Like, there's a lot to navigate, But if you believe

543
00:28:45,839 --> 00:28:48,160
that that's that guy and you're hiring, and if you're

544
00:28:48,279 --> 00:28:49,720
verge or if you're the committee or whatever, and you

545
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,319
feel strongly about somebody that's not currently a head coach,

546
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,559
I'm all in with that. Yeah. I can get behind that.

547
00:28:55,599 --> 00:28:59,000
If you give me good reasons why you make that decision. Yep,

548
00:28:59,079 --> 00:29:00,000
I am right there with you.

549
00:29:00,319 --> 00:29:03,119
Speaker 1: I think that you do have to lay out every plan,

550
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,839
you've had time, you've had extra time, you have to

551
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,920
lay it all out. And then as a committee five

552
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,160
six members, however many people are in that room, you

553
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,000
have got to figure out here is what we're looking for.

554
00:29:14,359 --> 00:29:16,920
And when you start talking about people, how many of

555
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,519
these boxes do they check? How many do we still

556
00:29:19,559 --> 00:29:20,880
have question marks about?

557
00:29:21,119 --> 00:29:21,319
Speaker 4: Right?

558
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: And that's why I do really really appreciate the fact

559
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:32,079
that you have an athletic director that does understand this

560
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,839
place probably as well as anybody. Right. And I know

561
00:29:36,079 --> 00:29:38,599
this is Verge his first time to be an athletic director,

562
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:44,039
but in this instance, in this you know coaching hire.

563
00:29:44,559 --> 00:29:47,480
The man played for Lawship football. He's from Louisiana, he's

564
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,599
been for thirty years in different capacity. You don't think

565
00:29:51,599 --> 00:29:55,720
that Vergon knows what a successful LSU football coach looks like.

566
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,319
Like he seemed good, he seemed bad, He's seen everywhere

567
00:29:58,319 --> 00:30:02,039
in between. So like with Verge leading it, and then

568
00:30:02,079 --> 00:30:03,599
you have a committee and you've got other you know,

569
00:30:03,599 --> 00:30:07,000
guys that have played LSU football that are own this committee.

570
00:30:07,759 --> 00:30:10,119
Once you define it, because again I think he's a

571
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,519
great person to define what it is, then then you

572
00:30:13,559 --> 00:30:17,279
attack it with like your full force. Yeah, but I

573
00:30:17,319 --> 00:30:19,720
think defining what you're looking for first is very.

574
00:30:19,559 --> 00:30:23,839
Speaker 4: Important in anything in life, whether you're hiring a head

575
00:30:23,839 --> 00:30:27,240
coach or you're hiring an accountant, you're hiring a lot like

576
00:30:27,279 --> 00:30:31,000
whatever it is, defining what you're looking for is priority

577
00:30:31,079 --> 00:30:34,000
number one. So if they can do that, and like

578
00:30:34,039 --> 00:30:36,160
you said, thank god for Verge. I mean, how many

579
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,319
people in the with the climate of what was happening

580
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:44,359
politically and around the LSU, you know, firing and Brian Kelly,

581
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,519
the fire Scott Wood where the governor comments like what

582
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:52,759
decent athletic director was choosing to come to LSU outside

583
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,799
of this program? So thank god we had a very capable, smart,

584
00:30:56,839 --> 00:31:00,839
loyal person in our own in our own backyard right

585
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,400
here to take that job. So let's just you know,

586
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,720
we're all cheering for Verge, we're all cheering for the committee.

587
00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:08,559
I hope they get it right. So nobody knows what's

588
00:31:08,559 --> 00:31:10,640
all speculation so we can. We could keep beating a

589
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,440
dead horse over everything, and it's fun to do. It's

590
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,039
fun to speculate, it's fun to guess, but it's just

591
00:31:14,079 --> 00:31:15,240
like guessing the weather right now.

592
00:31:15,359 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 1: So yeah, uh, inside the Chad Joe said, yall said

593
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,279
the same thing about Dave Randa. Now look at him.

594
00:31:20,279 --> 00:31:21,680
I don't know if you're talking to us with the chat,

595
00:31:21,759 --> 00:31:23,079
I hadn't really been able to keep up.

596
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:24,279
Speaker 3: No.

597
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 1: Look, I love Dave. I think Dave's a great human

598
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,839
being and he's a very very good defensive play caller.

599
00:31:32,559 --> 00:31:36,440
Day's personality and being a head coach was always something

600
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,359
that was questioned. Yep, Dave and Blake don't have the

601
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:43,799
same personality. Dave and Kelvin don't have the same personality

602
00:31:44,039 --> 00:31:46,359
to say the least. Yep. Like when I talked to

603
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,240
Dave Randa, like I interviewed him like three four weeks ago,

604
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,799
and every time I do, I'm like, man, I don't

605
00:31:52,799 --> 00:31:54,640
know what he just said. It sounded really smart. I

606
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,400
don't really I don't follow like what he's just said.

607
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,279
It sounds like it sound a good I don't really know. Uh,

608
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,759
just a very deep thinker. And and here's.

609
00:32:03,559 --> 00:32:05,359
Speaker 4: The deal, Like with that different personality, Like you got

610
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:06,599
to be a little bit more, you got to be

611
00:32:06,599 --> 00:32:07,920
a little bit more outgoing, you got to be a

612
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:12,640
little bit more excited. And you can't fake energy. You

613
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:17,640
can't fake authentic AUTHENTICSM authenticism authenticism. Yep, then we nailed

614
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,839
it third times a charm. You can't fake all that.

615
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: I know. You can't fake being authentic. That's what I'm saying,

616
00:32:24,279 --> 00:32:24,640
all right.

617
00:32:24,759 --> 00:32:28,799
Speaker 4: So like Dave, like he would have authy yeah, I think,

618
00:32:28,839 --> 00:32:29,880
but I think we were saying it right.

619
00:32:30,759 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: Don't group that.

620
00:32:32,799 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 4: You can't fake that stuff, right, So, like Dave would

621
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,440
always like, you have to be a little bit more energetic.

622
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 1: Well, like Blake's got that.

623
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 4: He might have even had like too much of it,

624
00:32:41,279 --> 00:32:43,000
like doing push up and stuff because he dropped like

625
00:32:43,039 --> 00:32:45,160
interception attempts on the sideline during priory.

626
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 1: He might have to like pull a little bit.

627
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:49,839
Speaker 4: He might have to pull all that, but it's easier

628
00:32:49,839 --> 00:32:51,400
to pull back on that than have to like go

629
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:56,279
out there and fake energy. Well, he's got that in spades. Authenticism,

630
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,279
Oh my god, you're you are.

631
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:00,799
Speaker 1: I'm about to pull a bit Madison on you.

632
00:33:00,839 --> 00:33:03,039
Speaker 4: If you don't start, I think authenticism's right, that's not

633
00:33:03,079 --> 00:33:06,359
as authenticity. I won't look it up.

634
00:33:07,039 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: Please do We are all now dumber for here?

635
00:33:11,319 --> 00:33:16,079
Speaker 4: It's a word. Excuse me, authenticism, excuse me for known

636
00:33:16,119 --> 00:33:17,559
English language perfectly.

637
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,119

00:34:43,199 --> 00:34:57,199
the bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.

663
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:04,079
Speaker 4: Go ahead, Mat gohad, what said you talking about? All right?

664
00:35:04,119 --> 00:35:07,760
I was, yeah, go ahead, about authenticism being a real word.

665
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:08,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, go ahead.

666
00:35:10,119 --> 00:35:16,559
Speaker 4: Yeah. It is a belief in authenticity, okay, the belief

667
00:35:16,559 --> 00:35:20,480
in the superiority of the authentic over the inauthentic, or

668
00:35:20,519 --> 00:35:23,800
a commitment to being true to one's own values, beliefs

669
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,639
and personality. Authenticism.

670
00:35:26,079 --> 00:35:26,760
Speaker 1: It's a great word.

671
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,119
Speaker 4: And I tried to type it in the chat autocorrect

672
00:35:29,119 --> 00:35:33,519
did try to change it, but Google confirms it's a word.

673
00:35:33,679 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 1: Now.

674
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,679
Speaker 4: I also said authenticism, don't believe that one's a word.

675
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:39,519
Let's check that one out.

676
00:35:39,599 --> 00:35:41,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, as many as you tried to say to

677
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,239
get there, like you eventually said a word.

678
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:47,639
Speaker 4: I'm sure that like that scene in uh find an

679
00:35:47,639 --> 00:35:50,519
Emao where the teachers like, yeah, don't hurt yourself, kid, Yeah,

680
00:35:50,559 --> 00:35:52,679
I hurt my brain a little bit. But if you

681
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,519
if you come to the show to get a better

682
00:35:55,559 --> 00:35:59,119
grasp of the English language, probably not the show for you.

683
00:35:59,119 --> 00:36:02,039
Go check out another pie yes or something. After the show,

684
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:09,599
of course, So sorry, but not sorry. Authenticism. Use it.

685
00:36:09,599 --> 00:36:16,320
It's your SAT vocabulary word of the day. Did you

686
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:17,679
see the story about Ceedee Lamb.

687
00:36:18,599 --> 00:36:19,039
Speaker 1: I did not.

688
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 4: Well Monday morning. Yeah, they played Monday night. They were

689
00:36:25,519 --> 00:36:29,960
in Las Vegas, Las Vegas, famously known for partying. He

690
00:36:30,039 --> 00:36:32,320
was saying throwing up I think in the lobby in

691
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:36,320
the morning of their game on Monday night. I don't

692
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,039
know if he had a stomach bug at all, not sure.

693
00:36:39,079 --> 00:36:40,840
So we kind of asked a question yesterday. I think

694
00:36:41,039 --> 00:36:44,039
Ceedee Lamb and George Pickens both had to sit on

695
00:36:44,079 --> 00:36:46,599
the bench the entire first drive of the game.

696
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,199
Speaker 1: So what real discipline that is?

697
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll show you. Well, that's what Like that goes

698
00:36:54,159 --> 00:36:57,639
to show you that life isn't fair. Sometimes people used

699
00:36:57,679 --> 00:37:00,800
to get mad, like when they were like they were

700
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,400
on the practice squad or like a special team or

701
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,320
something like that, if you missed a meeting or you're

702
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,159
late to a meeting, like sometimes you get cut for that.

703
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,320
Sometimes you get real disciplined. Well, if you're starting quarterback

704
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,400
or somebody or a star player is late. For me,

705
00:37:13,519 --> 00:37:15,800
it's just like hey, man, try to show up on

706
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,840
time and then you know, people are like, that's not fair,

707
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,360
that's not fire. Well, yeah, of course it's not fair,

708
00:37:21,039 --> 00:37:24,119
Like you're not that guy. Sorry, be better. You can

709
00:37:24,119 --> 00:37:26,239
be late to a meeting every now and then, well

710
00:37:27,079 --> 00:37:29,559
you can get you can get a touch of Vegas

711
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,800
and kind of maybe go out and miss a curfew,

712
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,280
be late, maybe throw up in the lobby the morning

713
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,119
of your game, Monday night football game, because heck, you

714
00:37:37,199 --> 00:37:39,880
got you know, eleven hours, ten hours to shake it off,

715
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,280
and then you can go out and you know, catch

716
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,320
for eighty yards in the game, fis and catch for

717
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:44,960
a hundred and.

718
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 1: Fifty game, so they dominated the game. So it's kind

719
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,199
of like you maybe go out the Thursday before the

720
00:37:49,199 --> 00:37:51,760
Florida game, had a pretty good day that day, right,

721
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,320
So right, maybe we're running something here.

722
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,280
Speaker 4: I had a buddy of mine that was a same

723
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,400
buddy I talked about, who's a fourth rounder, who was

724
00:37:59,519 --> 00:38:02,199
you know, ten eleven year player, play five or six

725
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,800
Pro Bowls whatever, all pro right guard. And we would

726
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,480
go out every Friday night up to a local establishment

727
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,760
and you know, have some do sekis, have a couple

728
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,199
of adult bevies. Yeah, sometimes had more than more than

729
00:38:16,599 --> 00:38:17,400
most people should.

730
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 1: So it happens.

731
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 4: Okay, it happens every now and then, and he would

732
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,599
always have a good game. And then we didn't go

733
00:38:25,639 --> 00:38:28,440
out one time the second year and in the second year,

734
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:29,920
maybe it was a third year playing, it was the

735
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,719
first time we never did it on Friday, and.

736
00:38:31,679 --> 00:38:33,679
Speaker 1: He gave up his first second of his career. Yeah,

737
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,119
and he's like, well, not doing that again. Yeah, making

738
00:38:36,119 --> 00:38:37,320
sure beers get deleted.

739
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, doing lots of them.

740
00:38:40,039 --> 00:38:44,320
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny that that's a football mindset, like

741
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:48,199
CD Lamb if he was out in Vegas whatever, Like

742
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:52,239
we're grown adults that still have bedcheck. On every road

743
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,079
game that we were ever on, we have bet check.

744
00:38:54,199 --> 00:38:57,360
Like when I tell my MLB NBA friends that, like

745
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,559
when I was playing, they're like wait a minute, what right,

746
00:38:59,599 --> 00:39:04,039
They're like yeah, wait, as professionals, you all have bedcheck,

747
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,559
like people come and check your rooms. Like yeah, yeah,

748
00:39:06,599 --> 00:39:07,840
Like it's not that's not no. I was like, you

749
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,599
don't have that baseball They're like no, no, Like what

750
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,639
They're like, get out of the city. We do whatever

751
00:39:13,639 --> 00:39:15,400
we want. We get ourselves to the game and we

752
00:39:15,519 --> 00:39:17,480
play and then we do whatever we want. Tom Like wait, what,

753
00:39:18,159 --> 00:39:20,360
Like you don't have to be somewhere. Like we had

754
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,360
security outside of every hotel, like you couldn't leave and

755
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,079
they literally knock on your door and check this, make

756
00:39:27,079 --> 00:39:29,800
sure as a thirty year old grown man, that you're

757
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,199
in for the night. Yeah. No, we don't have anything

758
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,679
like that, Matt. I don't even think they had that.

759
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,119
Like in college baseball, Yeah, that's wild.

760
00:39:38,559 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 4: Were you ever on a team that got they gave

761
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,079
you in the team dining the night before game, they

762
00:39:44,119 --> 00:39:47,679
had beers there for you. Yes, yeah, we had a couple. Yeah,

763
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:49,159
we could. We could put down a couple. It was

764
00:39:49,199 --> 00:39:50,199
good antioxidants.

765
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't like if we were if we were

766
00:39:53,639 --> 00:39:55,840
on the road and we took a lot of obviously

767
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,519
long chips because we were on the West coast, if

768
00:39:57,519 --> 00:39:59,639
we went anywhere that was like you know we go

769
00:39:59,679 --> 00:40:02,519
in fron than the Friday night snack, we would.

770
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,800
Speaker 4: Yeaheah, well we would go and we would do. So

771
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:06,960
you go on an away game and you're free until

772
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,679
like eight or nine at night, so you get there,

773
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,639
you get there at three, four, whatever in the afternoon,

774
00:40:10,679 --> 00:40:12,719
kind of depend on the length of the flight. And

775
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,159
so we would always go the linemen and quarterbacks, right

776
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,199
so I'll go to dinner and that's where you know,

777
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,320
you would famously go get a big steak dinner and

778
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,519
you play like credit card roulette, so like you know,

779
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,320
or rookies would get stuck with a huge bill or whatever.

780
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,280
It's usually the night before and it's just it's not

781
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:28,199
a big deal. It's like you go and you know what,

782
00:40:28,199 --> 00:40:30,159
are a couple of bottles of wine, You enjoy yourself

783
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:31,800
or whatever, and then you go play a game the

784
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:32,280
next day.

785
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: It's a little bit different. I mean, you're you're you're

786
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,320
grown men at that point. You see, we took a

787
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,039
lot of two day trips, and so we always had

788
00:40:38,119 --> 00:40:40,480
Friday night to go, oh yeah, enjoy it a little

789
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,000
bit more, yeah than a Saturday. Sure, But in the

790
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:43,400
middle of the.

791
00:40:43,559 --> 00:40:45,639
Speaker 4: You're playing baseball players, like if you're a pitcher or

792
00:40:45,639 --> 00:40:47,639
something like I knew a lot of pitchers or knew

793
00:40:47,639 --> 00:40:50,119
of a lot of pitchers that they would have condos

794
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,320
and the cities that were in there is a a division.

795
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,159
Yeah yeah, like in therefore, the teams they played a lot,

796
00:40:56,199 --> 00:40:58,639
they'd have condos in the downtown of that area. Because

797
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,800
they're pictures, they're they're working like one, hey, yeah, three

798
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,360
game series or whatever. So they have their own condos

799
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,760
at like three or four different cities. Yeah, we had

800
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,400
a picture for the Padres that had had the same thing.

801
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,119
He had one in he had one in Denver, one

802
00:41:13,199 --> 00:41:15,760
in San Francisco. I don't think he had one in Arizona,

803
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:17,800
but he had one in those two cities, right, Like

804
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:19,320
he had a place and he's like, yeah, I mean

805
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:21,239
I'm there all the time, but I don't ever do

806
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,760
anything like chances are like I'm on a pitch in

807
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:24,079
the series.

808
00:41:24,159 --> 00:41:29,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm also thirty, you know, true true bed check.

809
00:41:29,679 --> 00:41:32,400
