12
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,759
a sports card football card. Got a fresh shipment in

13
00:00:46,799 --> 00:00:48,960
the mail yesterday. I brought him over for Jake to see.

14
00:00:50,439 --> 00:00:52,840
I knew he'd be really excited about this one. Oh

15
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,640
it's my Cousin's your cousin, Devin? Check this out, Devin Hester,

16
00:00:57,359 --> 00:01:02,960
greatest kick returner time. Checking this out? Look at that

17
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,680
half of it him with the Bears, half of it Falcons.

18
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:12,599
Speaker 4: Greatest kick returner of all time. I don't know he's

19
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:13,319
in the.

20
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 3: Three that I would probably argue, all right, prime time,

21
00:01:19,359 --> 00:01:19,840
I don't know.

22
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,159
Speaker 4: I don't know if he did it enough.

23
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 3: All right, we'll give me the three DeShawn Jackson. Okay,

24
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:37,040
Devin Hester and Dante Hall play for the Chiefs. Surprisingly,

25
00:01:37,079 --> 00:01:38,319
I didn't know that you did.

26
00:01:39,439 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 2: Hey, what so I believe Hester leads the Uh he

27
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,280
leads one of the most touchdowns. I'd have to look

28
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,640
it up on I can't remember his part returner kick return?

29
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:53,879
Speaker 3: Did I did I catch him from behind? When we

30
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:54,840
played the Bears.

31
00:01:54,599 --> 00:01:55,879
Speaker 4: One time I did?

32
00:01:56,239 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: Was he hurt?

33
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:57,519
Speaker 5: No?

34
00:01:59,200 --> 00:01:59,799
Speaker 2: You don't know that.

35
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: He's in the open field and this Hester one just

36
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:05,599
saying got him?

37
00:02:05,879 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

38
00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:09,719
Speaker 3: Did you talk that ish? We were getting our butts kicks?

39
00:02:09,719 --> 00:02:10,439
Speaker 2: So probably so?

40
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 3: No. Uh, and Deshaun Jackson made me fall like I

41
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,280
got shot from the top.

42
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,879
Speaker 4: Of the stadium straight on my face.

43
00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 2: Speaking.

44
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 4: Joshua Cribbs was a dog.

45
00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: He was really good.

46
00:02:27,199 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 6: The only player in the Browns that could score.

47
00:02:30,199 --> 00:02:33,319
Speaker 2: And he was a returned Yeah. He was wild because

48
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,159
he was not like an electric athlete. He just looked

49
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,199
his movements didn't seem like they were really fast. He

50
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,080
was kind of stiff, ran up high because he was

51
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,039
a taller guy, so he didn't look like he was

52
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:44,879
moving that fast.

53
00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 6: What's his name before they moved him to running back

54
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:49,840
like Corderio Patterson was actually a really good return early.

55
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:55,439
Speaker 2: In his career. I mean he's what six four two thirty? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

56
00:02:55,479 --> 00:02:56,439
he had some moments, didn't he?

57
00:02:57,719 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 3: RISCy Harvin? Was he eat as well? Seahawks Vikings. I

58
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,520
got him more with the Vikings than I did the Seahawks.

59
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,719
Speaker 2: I don't know if our sports knowledge like goes back

60
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,840
enough to like talk about some of the old heads

61
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,960
that were returners. So if you got.

62
00:03:14,599 --> 00:03:18,159
Speaker 3: Sayers was like a really good billy white shoes. Oh,

63
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,960
Brian Mitchell, how do y'all remember him? Played for the Redskins,

64
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:26,520
for the Les He's He's got the most return yards

65
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:27,479
in NFL history.

66
00:03:28,159 --> 00:03:29,719
Speaker 2: I would just go, I just go to Prime Time

67
00:03:29,759 --> 00:03:31,599
because I grew up watching the Cowboys. So it's like

68
00:03:32,199 --> 00:03:34,919
I remember, if they never punted it to him, he

69
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,360
would always get back there. They would just put it

70
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:37,840
out of bounds, putting out a bounce, punt it out

71
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,719
of bounds, and then when they did it was like,

72
00:03:39,759 --> 00:03:42,319
hold your breath, look.

73
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,159
Speaker 4: At you, hunt, Eric mtcalf, I'm proud of you.

74
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 2: Let's go former charger. So speaking of like.

75
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 4: Darren Sprolls, he's pretty good back there.

76
00:03:49,719 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 2: Super fast people that are electric when they get the

77
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,680
ball in their hands, and he has done some returning

78
00:03:54,759 --> 00:04:01,039
and been pretty good at it. Tyreek Hill's pretty fast

79
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,680
and kind of in the news right now because this

80
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,360
this offseason, he's been doing a lot of different track meets.

81
00:04:06,759 --> 00:04:09,080
Like he's kind of made it public that he wants

82
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,560
to try to compete in the twenty twenty eight Olympics

83
00:04:11,599 --> 00:04:13,800
that run one hundred meter dash. So he's been going

84
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,040
to these different track meets running one hundred meter dashes.

85
00:04:17,439 --> 00:04:19,959
He's like publicly called out probably like a little bit

86
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,759
jokingly called out the gold medalists for it, like no

87
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,959
Alliles who ran what he ran like a ninety seven

88
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,639
to two or something like that, which is like, which

89
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,399
is smoking car? So I believe this past weekend he

90
00:04:32,519 --> 00:04:36,000
ran in a track meet in Texas. Tyreek Hill, professional

91
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,439
football player wide receiver, ran a ten to ten one

92
00:04:40,519 --> 00:04:44,879
hundred meter, which is his personal best. His previous personal

93
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,639
best was a ten to one five earlier in the spring.

94
00:04:47,959 --> 00:04:50,000
So he got a little bit better int and he

95
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,959
actually ten.

96
00:04:51,879 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 4: One, sorry like if you hear that more commonly.

97
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 2: So he did beat Noah Lyle's brother. And then so

98
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,759
he's coming. I don't know to what end he's trying

99
00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:05,399
to do this. I know He's made a lot of

100
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:11,360
very uh out there statements about what he's second profession

101
00:05:11,439 --> 00:05:13,480
could have been at one point and what he wants

102
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,319
to do. But yeah, I don't know if he's serious

103
00:05:15,399 --> 00:05:19,000
or not. But good lord, a professional wide receiver that

104
00:05:19,079 --> 00:05:23,399
doesn't run track full time. It's just really fasten one,

105
00:05:24,519 --> 00:05:25,120
get out of here.

106
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,199
Speaker 3: That's that's what we call picking him up and putting

107
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:32,560
him down pretty fast. Another track guy inside the chad

108
00:05:32,639 --> 00:05:35,560
gets a little mentioned here. Tim Dwight ran track for

109
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,279
Iowa and then was a legit returner for the Falcons

110
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,160
and Chargers.

111
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,439
Speaker 4: I mean, I told you all my story.

112
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,079
Speaker 3: The hardest guy for me to tackle was Julian Edelman

113
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:48,000
in the return game.

114
00:05:48,639 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 4: Just wouldn't I go down. It's like, hey, guy, chill out,

115
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,600
just get taxed down.

116
00:05:56,199 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 2: Doing so little and competitive.

117
00:05:58,399 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 4: Stop being tryhard white guy and just down all right.

118
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:02,959
Jeez and Pete.

119
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 2: People felt like when they tackled you, like man, these

120
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,240
a little boat leg. These they kind of go backwards.

121
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 4: They just never stopped.

122
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,519
Speaker 2: They just won't touch the ground.

123
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, Wes Walker didn't return in the NFL. In college,

124
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,160
he had the record for a long time.

125
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, in Texas touchdown in NCAA history.

126
00:06:19,199 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 6: I'm sitting here looking at Cordero Patterson's numbers because we

127
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,079
were talking about him as a returner.

128
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 2: This is kick return only.

129
00:06:25,079 --> 00:06:27,399
Speaker 6: He's been in the league twelve years and has eighty

130
00:06:27,439 --> 00:06:31,279
two hundred return yards and nine touchdowns.

131
00:06:31,639 --> 00:06:36,079
Speaker 2: That's wilde nine touchdownsick returns he has.

132
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,079
Speaker 6: He's only returned to one punt in his NFL career, Like,

133
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:40,920
this is all kick.

134
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,439
Speaker 4: Return He's got the most punt returns.

135
00:06:43,439 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 2: I think it's Devin Hester. We're looking up now, we're

136
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,040
angry at angry tapping. We were like airport attendant typing

137
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,560
right now. Yeah, uh patter, So it's not great for

138
00:06:54,639 --> 00:06:55,199
your boy here.

139
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 6: Patterson has had one thousand kick return yards three times

140
00:06:58,879 --> 00:06:59,480
even close.

141
00:07:00,879 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, Devin Hester fourteen?

142
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 2: All right?

143
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 4: Metcalf has ten, Brian Mitchell has nine.

144
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 2: Brian Mitchell is the most yards at he couldn't get

145
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:14,399
one more? Four thy n ninety nine yards one more.

146
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,000
Come out of retirement right now? You know who shut

147
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:20,839
down Devin Hester.

148
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,639
Speaker 3: I'll let it guess you know, well, yeah, the LSU

149
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,519
Tigers playing him in the Peach Bowl two.

150
00:07:28,399 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 2: Thousand and five. Ever heard of it?

151
00:07:31,199 --> 00:07:40,079
Speaker 4: The only time you didn't suck kidding. There's a there's

152
00:07:40,079 --> 00:07:41,240
a time or two after.

153
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,399
Speaker 2: You. Pretty good guy right here.

154
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,839
Speaker 4: Do you remember who the quarterback was in that game

155
00:07:48,879 --> 00:07:49,560
going against you?

156
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 2: Sure do? All right? Yeah?

157
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:52,839
Speaker 4: Who was the number one quarterback?

158
00:07:52,879 --> 00:07:56,639
Speaker 2: Number one quarterback in my uh yeah, my signing class.

159
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:01,199
Speaker 3: Remember they moved Devin Hester to running back that game,

160
00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:03,319
and they kept trying to like get him on a

161
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,360
toss sweep and like get him to the edge, and

162
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,240
like Laron and all these guys are like sitting there

163
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:09,759
like waiting on him, like.

164
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, keep doing that, keep doing that. I don't I

165
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,839
don't remember anything about that game that I wasn't a

166
00:08:16,839 --> 00:08:20,800
part of because I was so focused, locked in. Getn't

167
00:08:20,879 --> 00:08:23,959
yelled at probably a boy Jimbo on the sideline on

168
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:24,399
the phone.

169
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 4: Now now, now, Flint, tell me why? Why tell me

170
00:08:28,839 --> 00:08:33,639
why you do that? Why did you ever tell Jimbo why? Yeah?

171
00:08:33,639 --> 00:08:34,480
He always asked.

172
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:35,919
Speaker 2: I don't know if he ever let you really tell

173
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,840
him why. You'd start a sentence, then he would finish

174
00:08:38,919 --> 00:08:41,039
it for you. That was the worst feeling. You come

175
00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:43,080
off the sideline after a bad play or like a

176
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,639
three and out or whatever. You sit down on the

177
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,480
sideline with you know, whether it's James Coley or uh

178
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:55,279
Tracy or whoever it was, and you'd hear that was

179
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,799
a telephone on the sideline ringing, and you knew based

180
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,240
on like even the rings sounded angry. You knew picking

181
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,840
it up COLEI or whoever it was was like for you, like,

182
00:09:05,919 --> 00:09:09,919
oh man, you just getting here full exactly.

183
00:09:11,279 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 3: In that game, Melvin Oliver five tackles, Fellowshoe, Ollie high

184
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,960
Smith five tackles, Pretty Ronnie Prude had four tackles, la

185
00:09:20,039 --> 00:09:22,919
Ron Landry had four, Claude Roten had four.

186
00:09:22,919 --> 00:09:23,879
Speaker 4: I bout some of these names.

187

Speaker 3: Glenn Dorsey had three, Derry Beck with Dougie had two, uh,

188
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,480
Chefish Jackson, Kyle Williams, Cameron Vaughan.

189
00:09:34,799 --> 00:09:40,399
Speaker 2: How about a defensive line with Melvin Oliver, Claude Road

190
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,159
and Kyle Williams on it. It's pretty good and Dorsey

191
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:50,480
it was rotating, decent rotation. And who's alos other end

192
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,320
was it? Kirsten probably?

193
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:55,919
Speaker 4: Yeah? Christmas?

194
00:09:56,399 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

195
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,759
Speaker 3: Curston played for like he played six years in college

196
00:10:00,799 --> 00:10:02,039
before was to play six years.

197
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 2: Well, so he was my uh my signing class at

three shout out, number one signing class in the country.

199
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,000
No big deal. Probably not at all because of me. Uh.

200
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,600
Chris of Pittman though, was a true freshman who played

201
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,559
a lot of people that you don't think of. Played

202
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,840
a lot in the three as a true freshman that

203
00:10:18,279 --> 00:10:23,759
that defense, and then he was here after us. He

204
00:10:23,799 --> 00:10:25,679
had some injuries, he had some injuries, but he was

205
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,080
one of the guys that did He got two he

206
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,000

Speaker 4: You did as well.

208
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 2: Let's see. Uh, the's Sean Jordan Xenon, CHRISA. Pittman, Will Arnold,

00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,519
who else? Who else is Zinger?

210
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,639
Speaker 6: Wayne Boo bo did not?

Speaker 2: He went on seven.

212
00:10:49,799 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 6: Oh no, I just met your three signing class.

213
00:10:52,039 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, that three signing class. We have some

00:10:55,159 --> 00:10:58,000
studs Ali, Bruce Sard, Craig Davis, Dwayne bo.

215
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 4: Who rangy guy in the three signing.

216
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:07,919
Speaker 2: Class f jam Mark might have been JaMarcus. This doesn't

217
00:11:07,919 --> 00:11:10,039
have stars next to the Jesse Daniels.

218
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 4: That's a stack class.

219
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 2: It's a stack class.

220
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 4: At least you didn't bring your class down like I did.

221
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:22,799
Speaker 2: Patty Fisher Scholarship punter. I remember seeing the highlight films

222
00:11:22,799 --> 00:11:25,639
of him like kicking, because we had this, we had

223
00:11:25,639 --> 00:11:28,320
this highlight film that they played at the the What

224
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,279
was the big the bash. They played that every year

225
00:11:32,799 --> 00:11:34,440
like our highlight film. They gave it to all the

226
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,639
all the recruits that signed, and it was like such

227
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,159
a cool highlight film. But Patty Fisher was there punting

228
00:11:39,159 --> 00:11:43,600
it and there's like nobody at Maryland football high school

229
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,360
football games, and there's nobody in the stands. There's just

230
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,360
trees all around him, and he's punting from like his

231
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,879
own twenty yard line and just punts it out of

232
00:11:50,879 --> 00:11:55,399
the stadium into the trees like it looks like justin Vincent,

233
00:11:56,159 --> 00:11:58,559
what's the highest in this class? He was technically a

234
00:11:58,639 --> 00:12:01,159
year ahead, but a gray shirt. I think he counted

235
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,399
towards it, but I don't think he counted towards our

236
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,759
class during the actual signing day when they like graded.

237
00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 6: But Craig Davis then Craig Davis was he was in

238
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:12,480
a high four store.

239
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,519
Speaker 4: Most impressive highlight tape still to this day. Sean Jordan.

240
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:23,639
Speaker 3: Sean Jordan running over these little old passo defenders that

241
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,200
were trying to tackle him.

242
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 4: At arms, No chance.

243
00:12:27,799 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 2: He's about four times everybody's size on the field.

244
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 4: Faster, bigger, drunk.

245
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,039
Speaker 3: I don't know that we could find a way to

246
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,559
pull that up and it'd probably be too grainy to

247
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:38,559
even figure out who is.

248
00:12:38,639 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 2: And just remember about Sean Jordan state champion wrestler in Texas.

249
00:12:42,759 --> 00:12:45,960
He also defeated the Oklahoma state champion in wrestling in

250
00:12:46,039 --> 00:12:49,840
high school. Wanted to wrestle in college as well as

251
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,080
play football, and uh, you know this day and age

252
00:12:53,159 --> 00:12:54,679
or that day and age, there wasn't a lot of

253
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,360
access to the old Internet machine.

254
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:56,919
Speaker 4: Certainly enough for Sean.

255
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,279
Speaker 3: Like Sean grew up like literally like nl pass so

256
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,639
worried about out like football and family and like wasn't

257
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,799
online searching things.

258
00:13:05,879 --> 00:13:08,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I think his when he committed, he was

259
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,720
the sign between US and Nebraska, right.

260
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 4: Because Oklahoma State were one of those one of those

261
00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:13,399
that was.

262
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:18,399
Speaker 2: Like a really top wrestling program play football. And then

263
00:13:18,399 --> 00:13:19,759
what did Derek Dooley tell him.

264
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,919
Speaker 3: Derrek Dooley, the running back coach at the time, told

265
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,399
Sean that LSU had a wrestling team and that he

266
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,519
could do both. He could wrestle and he could play

267
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,799
football at LSU. What Derek Dooley forgot to add to

268
00:13:33,399 --> 00:13:37,279
the wrestling team was it was a club wrestling team

269
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,919
that you could do for fun and not for actual competition.

270
00:13:41,759 --> 00:13:44,159
And again Sean didn't know any better, and you know,

271
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,240
it wasn't it wasn't something you could easily find. And

272
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,960
so Sean committed to LSU based off that information, and

273
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,679
he didn't find out there wasn't a wrestling team until

274
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:55,200
he got to campus. And you might be like, well,

275
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,679
he didn't talk to the coach. I never talked to

276
00:13:57,879 --> 00:14:01,120
Jimbo or Derrek Dooley in my recruiting. I only talk

277
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,080
to Kirk Dahl and coach Saban.

278
00:14:03,279 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 4: That was it. It was a different time back then.

279
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:08,519
Speaker 2: I guess technically not a lie from Douley, a little

280
00:14:08,519 --> 00:14:13,080
bit of an embellishment as a club wrestling, but certainly

281
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,159
you'd think there might be a follow up question to

282
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,639
Duley on it, and maybe I take a visit see

283
00:14:19,639 --> 00:14:21,960
the wrestling tights or anything like what color of the tights?

284
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 4: You know though? You know Sean, Oh yeah, oh yeah,

285
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:25,840
for sure.

286
00:14:25,879 --> 00:14:29,159

336
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,399
them all got him a little button up, some khakis,

337
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,119
some new shoes, maybe got a haircut.

338
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,759
Speaker 2: The pleats, how many pleats?

339
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 4: Two?

340
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 2: Do people still wear the pants with? Like? What are

341
00:17:11,519 --> 00:17:12,920
the the cuffs at the bottom? Is that what it

342
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,279
was when they were kind of rolled up. But that's

343
00:17:15,279 --> 00:17:18,160
how you did it. I bet Harball does I remember

344
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:18,799
putting those on?

345
00:17:18,839 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 4: How did he not have like a signature Khaki?

346
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 2: I'm sure he did.

347
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 4: I don't remember seeing that.

348
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,279
Speaker 2: How many startup Khaki companies tried to get him in

349
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:36,319
as a on the ground floor ground floor investors? Possibly you? Oh,

350
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,480

351
00:17:38,559 --> 00:17:42,079
Church with those khakis from Dillard's bottom of it rolled

352
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:43,839

398
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 3: I was trying to explain to Flynn this is his

399
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,599
first SEC media day, so he's going in, you know,

400
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,400
kind of blind a little bit for the first time.

401
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,240
He's never been either, like he's never seen the crazy circus.

402
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,799
Would you have any advice for Matt Flynn as he

403
00:19:53,839 --> 00:19:59,160
gets ready to head to his first media days.

404
00:19:58,839 --> 00:20:03,839
Speaker 7: Any sort of expectation you have about SEC and the

405
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:04,640
numbers that.

406
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:11,319
Speaker 4: We're losing. Connor is Hey, let's just see if we

407
00:20:11,319 --> 00:20:15,680
can call Connor back a man.

408
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 2: I don't on the edge of I want some advice.

409
00:20:19,559 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 4: No, I was ready Gordy forget to pay the phone bill?

410
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:28,440
Come on, what happened here? Is that an internet issue?

411
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:29,759
Is that a phone issue? I don't know.

412
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:31,559
Speaker 2: I think we got it was we got next to

413
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,279
it is a landline?

414
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:35,839
Speaker 4: Like can you like unplug it?

415
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 3: And like you know, like al video games used to

416
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,640
blow in the video game, like do you do that

417
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,200
like with the old phone and then put it back

418
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:41,799
into the wall.

419
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,400
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, because that worked on video games. No matter what.

420
00:20:44,559 --> 00:20:47,319
Speaker 2: Up to the ceiling fan that was that was spinning

421
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:48,440
so fast it was shaken.

422
00:20:49,799 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 4: I never what so I did never pulled that move. Oh, yeah,

423
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,720
that's not something I ever did.

424
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 2: Well, sometimes it was you had to cool it down too,

425
00:20:58,039 --> 00:20:59,279
so you couldn't just blow in it to get the

426
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,359
dust out. Yeah, he had a cool it down. All right.

427
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 4: We'll see if Connor blew into his cell phone and

428
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,759
has it working. Now, Connor, can you hear it?

429
00:21:06,799 --> 00:21:10,599
Speaker 7: I can hear you the whole time for for the rest. Look,

430
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,559
I'm just gonna that's that's what I do.

431
00:21:14,799 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 4: All right, it's a little bit choppy.

432
00:21:16,279 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 3: We'll see, we'll see if we kind of can we

433
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,960
get your answer on Flynn and his expectation for media

434
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:28,920
day Again, Connor, we're losing you again.

435
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, it's all right. It's all right. Well

436
00:21:32,799 --> 00:21:36,359
tell Connor, I'll just you know, we'll take the blame.

437
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:37,400
Just hit our chests.

438
00:21:38,599 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 3: That's on us, even though it might be him, it

439
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:41,960
might be the cell phone.

440
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:43,519
Speaker 4: I don't really know.

441
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 2: I'm podcast.

442
00:21:48,079 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 4: Saturday Down South podcast. Check it out.

443
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,519
Speaker 3: Well, maybe that's what he's sabotaged in the phone lines

444
00:21:53,519 --> 00:21:56,759
because he doesn't want to give any good information here

445
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,480
and he wants to save it for the podcast.

446
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 2: Okay, we know how to adapt. We know how tojust

447
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,559
we're flexible over here, we could change direction like that.

448
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 4: I really did want to hear like kind of what

449
00:22:06,279 --> 00:22:09,759
his advice to you.

450
00:22:09,839 --> 00:22:13,279
Speaker 2: Is going to be. So I'm little disappointed you're doing

451
00:22:13,279 --> 00:22:14,359
your show from twelve to four.

452
00:22:16,039 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 4: Why did you not know that? Do you think I

453
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:19,440
was just gonna be off?

454
00:22:19,559 --> 00:22:20,839
Speaker 2: Well, what what do you usually do?

455
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,519
Speaker 3: Two to five Central? So it'd be three to six

456
00:22:24,519 --> 00:22:26,200
because we're going to be in the Eastern time zone.

457
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,400
I want to go ahead and get out in front

458
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,440
of that as well, Bud.

459
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 2: That's a good point.

460
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm excited, which is good.

461
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,599
Speaker 3: Like if you're in the Eastern time zone, you're not

462
00:22:34,599 --> 00:22:36,160
going to oversleep because like.

463
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 4: I don't feel like no.

464
00:22:40,759 --> 00:22:42,599
Speaker 2: So the show should keep me out too late?

465
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,759
Speaker 4: So you know the show. The show is going to

466
00:22:45,839 --> 00:22:49,519
start at eight.

467
00:22:49,839 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 2: You did that one hour math pretty good right there?

468
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,400
So the wheels were you in then harder than they

469
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:56,000
should have been.

470
00:22:56,160 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 3: I was thinking of like specific mountain Eastern times.

471
00:23:00,519 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 5: He said he can do zoom, So do we want.

472
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,559
Speaker 4: To like break try to get him on you and

473
00:23:06,599 --> 00:23:08,319
then do we want to do this?

474
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 3: Let's do this, let's break on time, not early, but

475
00:23:12,319 --> 00:23:13,319
actually on time.

476
00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 4: We'll send Connor the zoom link.

477
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 3: We'll have him on video, and I hope the informations

478
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,599
go because I'm really wanting to hear it. And if

479
00:23:21,599 --> 00:23:23,559

Speaker 3: OTV one on four or five ESPN Beton rouge. Connor

508
00:25:00,839 --> 00:25:03,359
just wanted to see us. It wasn't anything going on

509
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,279
with the phone. He just wanted to hang out. He

510
00:25:05,319 --> 00:25:07,799
wanted to see us. Connor, what's going on, sir?

511
00:25:07,839 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 4: How you doing? How you living?

512
00:25:09,799 --> 00:25:11,519
Speaker 5: I'm doing well? Can you can you guys hear me?

513
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 4: See good?

514
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 3: We got you now. I'm gonna blame it on us.

515
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,400
I think our boss forgot to pay the phone bill

516
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,039
or something. I'm not gonna say it was you. You're

517
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,559
always prepared. I'm just gonna hit our chest. Like I said,

518
00:25:24,599 --> 00:25:26,000
it's on us. We'll take the blame.

519
00:25:26,839 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 5: Look all that matters is that work here now? Apologies?

520
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 8: If it was on my end, Uh, we try and

521
00:25:32,759 --> 00:25:34,640
work through. That's that's the gritty mindset.

522
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:38,519
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right, too gritty to be pretty all right.

523
00:25:38,599 --> 00:25:40,960
We got to hear this information though, because you started

524
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,319
at like two different times, we were like left on

525
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,839
a cliffhanger there, Matt Flann first time media day. LSU's

526
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,240
right out of the gates too, as you know, they

527
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,079
are the first team there, so he doesn't have time

528
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:51,839
to ease into this any advice.

529
00:25:53,039 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 5: Head on a swivel.

530
00:25:54,279 --> 00:25:57,880
Speaker 8: The amount of media that covers this thing is unbelievable.

531
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,319
I mean it really is, like it is truely been

532
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,319
to other media days and did to. I used to

533
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:04,960
go to Big ten media days every single year. But

534
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,079
the amount of SEC media that is at this thing

535
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,480
that will care about Talking season this.

536
00:26:09,599 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 5: Much will still be really hard to process. So at

537
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:14,720
least it was for me the very first.

538
00:26:14,519 --> 00:26:18,759
Speaker 8: Time, and just knows will be flying. I mean, the

539
00:26:18,759 --> 00:26:20,440
amount of things that you will hear over the course

540
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,440
of the week. I'm sure you know a friend of

541
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,759
the program, Roman Harper is gonna tell us why like

542
00:26:24,839 --> 00:26:27,160
South Carolina is going undefeated this year or.

543
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:27,839
Speaker 5: Something like that.

544
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,799
Speaker 8: You know, these are these are the types of things

545
00:26:30,079 --> 00:26:33,359
that are unfold during talking season in the SEC. Uh,

546
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,240
nobody does it quite like the conference where it does

547
00:26:36,279 --> 00:26:37,000
just mean more.

548
00:26:37,279 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 2: So Connor is this so I'm getting warnings from everybody

549
00:26:40,799 --> 00:26:42,400
a heads up, like, you, man, you're gonna be there

550
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:43,680
all day. You're gonna get pulled in a lot of

551
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,599
different directions, ask asked. Everybody's gonna ask you to be

552
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,680
on their show. But that's just kind of how it goes.

553
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,440
But is this kind of like a like a red

554
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,640
light green light frat sorority party, where like I got

555
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,720
like a necklace or something, hit the green if I'm available,

556
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,960
flip into red if like don't talk to me right,

557
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,319
like do not disturb button.

558
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,079
Speaker 5: Yeah, something like that would be really good.

559
00:27:04,079 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 8: I've actually never done something quite like that, But that's

560
00:27:06,759 --> 00:27:09,440
that's actually a really good idea because the amount of

561
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,000
times that I've had to like go in my phone

562
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,359
and be like, hey, what do I have at ten

563
00:27:12,519 --> 00:27:13,400
thirty on this day?

564
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 4: I don't know.

565
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,839
Speaker 8: I got to figure this out that that's actually really smart.

566
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,359
Then you send that message to the rest of the world,

567
00:27:19,559 --> 00:27:22,559
just just letting them know, maybe hat forward or backwards.

568
00:27:22,599 --> 00:27:25,480
I know, hester you're a big hat guy at media days.

569
00:27:25,519 --> 00:27:27,880
You know, depending on which way you have it, I'm

570
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,400
not sure if you want to go to the side

571
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,440
full fresh prince of bel air, but whatever needs to

572
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,880
be done to let people know that you're available, you're

573
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,480
not available, because you're exactly right, you will be pulled

574
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,480
in every single direction at all times. You kind of

575
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,279
just show up at what seven thirty whatever it is

576
00:27:43,279 --> 00:27:45,160
that you guys got to be there to be able

577
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,759
to get your show going, and then by the time

578
00:27:47,799 --> 00:27:50,200
you sign off at like I don't know, five, six

579
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,160
o'clock whatever it is, you're like, wait.

580
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 5: What did I do today?

581
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:52,799
Speaker 2: Oh?

582
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,039
Speaker 8: Yeah, I've been talking for the last nine hours NonStop

583
00:27:56,079 --> 00:27:58,279
on different stations. It's just kind of the name of

584
00:27:58,279 --> 00:28:00,880
the game, four day grind, and we embrace all of it.

585
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lie. I do like having the fact

586
00:28:03,279 --> 00:28:04,119
that I can be like, oh.

587
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 3: I would do the interview, I gotta go do the

588
00:28:06,039 --> 00:28:07,319
other show that, which is true.

589
00:28:07,759 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 4: Which is true.

590
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,559
Speaker 3: I got four hours of another show, so I'm doing

591
00:28:10,759 --> 00:28:14,039
seven every single day. But I kind of avoid the

592
00:28:14,079 --> 00:28:16,319
car wash because I got to get to the other show.

593
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 4: And you know, it's a good excuse to have.

594
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,319
Speaker 5: It really is. And look, if you're antisocial, this is

595
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,440
not the event for you. It's just not.

596
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 8: There is a certain standard that you're just gonna be talking,

597
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,960
and you'll be talking with other people that are very

598
00:28:32,039 --> 00:28:35,039
very close to you that will you'll probably hear something

599
00:28:35,079 --> 00:28:37,359
that's like three or four feet away from you at

600
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,359
another table, and you'll be like, wait a minute, that's

601
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,319
just totally threw me off to hear this person say

602
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,039
that Billy Napier is gonna get fired in week four

603
00:28:45,319 --> 00:28:47,200
and then you kind of have to just regroup and

604
00:28:47,279 --> 00:28:48,440
just and just keep it rolling.

605
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,359
Speaker 5: But this is the hand that we play.

606
00:28:52,359 --> 00:28:54,279
Speaker 8: The good news is that it means college football is

607
00:28:54,279 --> 00:28:58,200
almost here, and that's forward to above all else. That

608
00:28:58,359 --> 00:29:00,200
SEC Media Day is being able to see everybody you

609
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,480
know that college football is you know, five six weeks away,

610
00:29:04,119 --> 00:29:05,640
depending on when we wrap this thing up.

611
00:29:06,559 --> 00:29:09,839
Speaker 2: Oh man, this, uh this sounds like a squirrel seer's

612
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,880
like worst nightmare right here. People talking close, distracting, So

613
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,880
I'm like an infamous diagnosed squirrel seer over here. So

614
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,720
uh yeah, it'll be entertaining us. It'll be must see

615
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,759
TV for sure. If they just have like a camera

616
00:29:20,799 --> 00:29:22,200
following me the whole time, I'm sure it'd be like

617
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,480
a roller coaster of emotions happening. But let's dive into

618
00:29:25,519 --> 00:29:28,480
the SEC talk about Let's just get a broad stroke

619
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,160
overview of leading into the season, kind of what your

620
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,119
thoughts are on the top teams and how if we're

621
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,200
no predict predictions or anything, but just the beginning of

622
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:38,559
the season with the top teams.

623
00:29:39,039 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 8: Well, my my prediction for the past month has been

624
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,000
LSU National championship. So I realize where I'm saying this

625
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,799
and we're on the record, we get it on the

626
00:29:47,839 --> 00:29:51,240
record early, just by the time that's And that's the

627
00:29:51,319 --> 00:29:53,559
other thing is I like going into SECBD days knowing

628
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,920
how I feel about specific teams so that I'm not

629
00:29:56,079 --> 00:29:58,880
just you know, gassing everybody up and saying that everybody's

630
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,960
gonna win at least nine ten games, because lord knows

631
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,599
that can't happen. But I do think that there will

632
00:30:04,599 --> 00:30:07,640
be a sense of urgency for the SEC contenders because

633
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,440
no matter who you are, you can spin.

634
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 5: It as we're right there.

635
00:30:12,519 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 8: And I wonder how that's going to impact a team

636
00:30:15,039 --> 00:30:18,000
like Georgia, which you know, coming off of consecutive years

637
00:30:18,039 --> 00:30:20,960
in which it missed the College Football Playoffs semi finals

638
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,759
after being the preseason number one. How much is that

639
00:30:23,839 --> 00:30:26,599
reflected with the offseason that they've had, with the portal

640
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,240
urgency that they've had. What about a team like Texas

641
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,960
that is the only team in college football the consecutive

642
00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:36,319
semi finals heading into this year, how much is that

643
00:30:36,359 --> 00:30:38,839
sense of urgency there, even though everybody's going to be

644
00:30:38,839 --> 00:30:41,200
talking about the start of the Arch Manning era. And

645
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,000
then a team like Alabama that everybody is pointing and

646
00:30:44,079 --> 00:30:47,599
laughing at. Everybody's calling their shot, whether they're Thomas Castellanos

647
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:48,759
or Diego Pavia.

648
00:30:49,079 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 4: You don't have to be.

649
00:30:50,079 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 5: Five foot ten to call out Alabama apparently anymore. And

650
00:30:52,759 --> 00:30:53,799
I could say that because.

651
00:30:53,559 --> 00:30:56,319
Speaker 8: I'm five eight, But there are just a lot of

652
00:30:56,319 --> 00:30:58,559
people that are saying, hey, now is the time for

653
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,680
Kailen de bor to show that he is capable of

654
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:04,200
being the Nick Saban successor in Tuscaloosa. So I do

655
00:31:04,279 --> 00:31:06,200
think that sense of urgency is going to be really

656
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,920
interesting to see from all these programs that, look, you

657
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,799
don't have to spin it in some weird way, you

658
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,440
were on the outside looking in of a national championship

659
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:18,160
and in the SEC that's more than enough to be able.

660
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,559
Speaker 5: To kind of get the fire started in the offseason.

661
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,119
Speaker 3: Connor, who takes the biggest step back from where they

662
00:31:24,119 --> 00:31:26,759
were a year ago, and who takes the biggest step forward.

663
00:31:27,759 --> 00:31:30,359
Speaker 8: You know, there's part of me that wants to say

664
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,960
ole Miss takes the biggest step back, But I think

665
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,200
that's a little bit unfair because I'm an Austin Simmons believer.

666
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,000
I do think that if you put he into a

667
00:31:40,039 --> 00:31:42,079
tongue Ba Lowa in the same room together, you wouldn't

668
00:31:42,119 --> 00:31:44,640
be able, even though there is a little bit of

669
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:48,000
a height difference, but both lefties and I swear they

670
00:31:48,079 --> 00:31:50,519
have to be related in some way, shape or form.

671
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,279
Speaker 5: And the fact that this is a guy that is.

672
00:31:53,279 --> 00:31:56,079
Speaker 8: Nineteen years old who has already graduated college is just

673
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,920
an absurd thing. And I do think that defense is

674
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,799
going to regress this year. So, oh, this is kind

675
00:32:00,799 --> 00:32:03,599
of the obvious candidate. But South Carolina might be a

676
00:32:03,599 --> 00:32:06,119
little bit more obvious, even though they have the thing

677
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,400
that they have lacked in so many years, which is

678
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,240
the returning stud quarterback. And you've got a guy on

679
00:32:12,279 --> 00:32:14,240
the defensive side of the ball and Dylan Stewart that

680
00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:16,960
might be one of the ten best defensive players coming

681
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,559
back in college football this year.

682
00:32:18,599 --> 00:32:21,839
Speaker 5: But go ask twenty twenty two Alabama.

683
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 8: What it's like when you have that stud edge rusher

684
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,880
and that unbelievable quarterback. You can have those two things

685
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,680
working in your favor and have all this it's really

686
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:33,799
difficult if you don't have that complete team. And as

687
00:32:33,839 --> 00:32:36,359
we know twenty twenty two, Alabama did not make it

688
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,640
back to the College Football Playoff that year with Bryce

689
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,599
Young and Will Anderson. So I think that South Carolina

690
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,039
is the team that is probably most likely to regress,

691
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,480
just because I think they played at such an absurd

692
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,559
out of body level during the latter half of last season.

693
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they got a got a really great guy

694
00:32:53,119 --> 00:32:55,000
under center as well, So I kind of want to

695
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,000
switch over to the quarterbacks because I'm always going to

696
00:32:57,079 --> 00:32:59,440
lean heavy on the quarterback. We all know you can

697
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,599
have a great team in the world, but if you

698
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,000
don't have a guy under center calling the plays, directing

699
00:33:05,079 --> 00:33:08,720
the offense, then your odds of winning championships at least

700
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,920
go down significantly. So we got a lot of top

701
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,599
guys in the SEC that are in the short list

702
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,799
for the preseason Heisman ranking. So a lot of returners,

703
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,839
but we always know that there is somebody that doesn't

704
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,319
get the preseason high. Maybe a newcomer in the quarterback

705
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,240
rooms at some school that busts out and has a

706
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,240
bust out year. Is there anybody like that that you

707
00:33:29,279 --> 00:33:30,799
see in the SEC that's coming here.

708
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:33,519
Speaker 5: There's a lot of buzzbout Ty Simpson.

709
00:33:33,559 --> 00:33:37,559
Speaker 8: Now maybe Ty Simpson is too obvious, but somebody that

710
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,599
hasn't started at the college level, that was a former

711
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:45,279
five star recruit who's now entering year four at Alabama,

712
00:33:45,279 --> 00:33:47,599
who's stuck with that coaching staff. Maybe he's the guy

713
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,200
that kind of emerges that he's not going to be

714
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:55,000
in these way too early top five quarterbacks. I'm fascinated

715
00:33:55,079 --> 00:33:57,680
by Marcel Reed too at Texas A and m a

716
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,079
guy that is kind of in that maybe second or

717
00:34:00,119 --> 00:34:03,119
even third tier depending on what you look at. And

718
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,880
in Collin Klein offense, I'm really bullish they returned that

719
00:34:07,039 --> 00:34:09,760
entire offensive line. This is a ground game that if

720
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,639
they can get Leveon Moss back coming off the torn

721
00:34:12,679 --> 00:34:14,960
acl that he suffered at South Carolina last year, this

722
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,719
could be one of the best ten ground games in.

723
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 5: All of college football.

724
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,880
Speaker 8: There's a lot of hype for Ruben Owens, who was

725
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,840
hurt last year and then return late in the season.

726
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:26,360
Speaker 5: Marcel Reid is a guy that you should not sleep on.

727
00:34:26,519 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 8: Especially if Casey concepts you own steps in from NC

728
00:34:29,079 --> 00:34:31,519
State and is that go to receiver that he looked

729
00:34:31,519 --> 00:34:33,480
like he was as a true freshman a couple.

730
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:34,039
Speaker 5: Of years ago.

731
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,679
Speaker 8: A and M is a team that look nobody's gonna

732
00:34:36,679 --> 00:34:39,239
sit here in Pennsyland A and M to get to

733
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,400
an SEC championship. That's a program that has not played

734
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,920
in a conference championship game in the twenty first century,

735
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,559
not just since they've joined the SEC. But I think

736
00:34:47,599 --> 00:34:50,760
Marcel Reid is so so intriguing because the pieces around

737
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,719
him are really, really favorable and he's kind of being

738
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,079
slept on as that guy that, oh you know what,

739
00:34:56,119 --> 00:34:58,800
he's not necessarily in that top tier, but he showed

740
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,960
a lot of in that first year. I guess if

741
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:03,679
we can even call it that as a starter. In

742
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:04,559
College Station.

743
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 3: Connor, we were talking earlier about Missoo, and it feels

744
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,239
like we're not having a Missoo conversation.

745
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:11,159
Speaker 4: Nobody is good, bad, or indifferently.

746
00:35:11,199 --> 00:35:13,760
Speaker 3: Nobody's talking about Missouri And if you look over the

747
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,400
last four years, they've been one of the most consistent

748
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:17,880
programs in the SEC.

749
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:19,559
Speaker 4: You know, I love my guy.

750
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 3: Drink, but like the Golden Age, of Missouri football. Luther

751
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:26,000
Burden and Brady Cook and Theowese and Cody Schrader, all

752
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,599
those guys are now gone.

753
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,119
Speaker 4: That's that's just the offensive guys.

754
00:35:29,119 --> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 3: Not even talking about the first round picks they've had

755
00:35:31,519 --> 00:35:32,320
on defense.

756
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 4: Why are we not talking about Missouri?

757
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,280
Speaker 8: Well, I mentioned this too, I think was last week.

758
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,719
Their schedule is a joke. Their schedule for an SEC schedule.

759
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:43,519
Speaker 4: Guys, look at this.

760
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 8: You don't see a single team on that schedule that

761
00:35:46,079 --> 00:35:50,440
won ten games last year. They don't game until Week eight.

762
00:35:51,159 --> 00:35:53,800
How in this year of college football, is that even

763
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,400
possible that they don't have a road game until week

764
00:35:57,519 --> 00:36:01,559
eighty yet like they have one game a non bordering state.

765
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,079
Speaker 5: Their schedule is just weird.

766
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:04,320
Speaker 4: It's just really weird.

767
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,239
Speaker 8: And look, people gave Indiana a lot of craft last year.

768
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,039
As an Indiana grad, I had it to kind of

769
00:36:09,039 --> 00:36:11,719
take it on the chin. For that schedule, Indiana was

770
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,760
playing the two teams that played in the previous national championship.

771
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,239
You look at Miszoo's schedule and if Missoo is all

772
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,599
of a sudden in contention in November, we're going to

773
00:36:19,679 --> 00:36:22,679
have these conversations and Greig sayk he's gonna be going,

774
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,920
wait a minute, I did all this campaigning about how

775
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,320
difficult SEC schedules are, and you look up at Missoo's

776
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:28,199
and you're kind of like, wait a.

777
00:36:28,119 --> 00:36:30,079
Speaker 5: Minute, that ad.

778
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,599
Speaker 8: Is as manageable as it gets for an SEC slate,

779
00:36:32,679 --> 00:36:34,679
and you're seeing that divide because there are a lot

780
00:36:34,679 --> 00:36:37,159
of teams in the SEC that obviously don't have that benefit.

781
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,320
A team like Arkansas has one of the most college

782
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,679
football Florida as well, I've put in that category, but Miszoo,

783
00:36:44,199 --> 00:36:46,000
we could be talking about him a lot more if

784
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:50,239
they're able to navigate what is a really, really favorable

785
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,719
start to their schedule. Obviously, Bo Prabuela has got to

786
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,119
be that dude coming over from Penn State. And if

787
00:36:55,159 --> 00:36:57,599
Amad Hardy looks every bit as good as he was

788
00:36:57,679 --> 00:36:59,519
last year when he was a thirteen hundred yard rusher

789
00:36:59,559 --> 00:37:02,440
at Louisian, I'm in row, we'll be having those conversations

790
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,559
about this Missoo team not having any sort of big

791
00:37:04,599 --> 00:37:05,280
time regression.

792
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:09,280
Speaker 2: Connor, I can't tell you how much I'm rooting against

793
00:37:09,559 --> 00:37:12,679
Missouri because the guy across the table from me cannot

794
00:37:12,679 --> 00:37:15,760
stop talking about them. It's all he talks about outside

795
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,760
of LSU. So I'm going to ask you, like a

796
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,840
question that's gonna makes.

797
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 4: I fall in love with one team like that.

798
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 8: Every it's usually Kentucky can't be that team right now,

799
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,360
Like Kentucky can still further notice they're they're on the

800
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,599
back burner. You can't fall in love with kind of

801
00:37:29,639 --> 00:37:31,639
the off season vibes that we've seen.

802
00:37:31,599 --> 00:37:34,280
Speaker 2: Like, so, I'm gonna piss my partner off over here

803
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:38,239
because I'm asking about another school outside of LSU besides Missouri.

804
00:37:38,639 --> 00:37:42,199
Let's let's take a look at Oklahoma last year two

805
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,320
seven in the conference, Like at the bottom of the list,

806
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,679
at towards the botto of the list in the SEC.

807
00:37:48,519 --> 00:37:50,760
What is now there? Now they're coming in the twenty

808
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,159
twenty five and one of the top hardest schedules in

809
00:37:53,199 --> 00:37:56,519
the SEC. What kind of emphasis do they have? What

810
00:37:56,599 --> 00:37:58,920
kind of pressure do they have to perform and perform

811
00:37:59,079 --> 00:38:02,840
early for a fan base that expects to at least

812
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,239
be in contention for a conference championship.

813
00:38:06,039 --> 00:38:09,679
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's it's a really difficult team to evaluate because

814
00:38:11,079 --> 00:38:14,000
part of me that says, man, if it hits right

815
00:38:14,039 --> 00:38:16,599
this year, Oklahoma is a playoff team, and I was

816
00:38:16,639 --> 00:38:17,679
saying that last year.

817
00:38:18,199 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 5: But there's also this this.

818
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,760
Speaker 8: Lingering doubt when it comes to Brent Veennables evaluating an

819
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:29,639
offense and the decisions that he's made, most notably normaled

820
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:34,360
over Dylan Gabriel, who was not exactly holding Oklahoma with

821
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,079
what he was asking for before he ultimately hit the

822
00:38:37,119 --> 00:38:39,480
portal and went to Oregon and became a Heisman finalist.

823
00:38:40,079 --> 00:38:42,519
There's a sense that if Brent Ventables gets the offense

824
00:38:42,599 --> 00:38:46,079
wrong again, it's curtains and that a program like Oklahoma,

825
00:38:46,199 --> 00:38:48,679
which does not have to pay head coach buyouts, has

826
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,599
not had to be willing to pay you know, thirty five,

827
00:38:51,679 --> 00:38:53,800
thirty seven million dollars, I can't remember what the exact

828
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:57,480
number is for Brent Fennibles and to move on now.

829
00:38:57,599 --> 00:38:59,880
There is an expectation that John Mattier can be that

830
00:39:00,079 --> 00:39:02,639
dude though, And you know, I had his coach, Jake Dicker,

831
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,480
who was his coach at Washington State. I had him

832
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,800
on my show a couple of weeks ago, and he's like,

833
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,960
I think he's the best player in college football, which

834
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,039
is a wild thing to hear a guy say, considering

835
00:39:12,079 --> 00:39:13,519
the way that it kind of played out with both

836
00:39:13,559 --> 00:39:16,880
of those guys leaving Washington State. But Ja Mattier is

837
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,920
sort of this ultimate wild card in the SEC, and

838
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,559
if the pieces around him, with an improved offensive line,

839
00:39:22,639 --> 00:39:24,840
with dian Burg's coming back, a receiver that I'm really

840
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,559
high on, should do really good things out of the

841
00:39:26,559 --> 00:39:29,559
slot there. If their offense is son You're like, wait

842
00:39:29,599 --> 00:39:31,840
a minute, you're gonna pair that with the Brent Fennables defense.

843
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,880
That team, that team can handle itself in the SEC,

844
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,519
and that team can win nine games. But it's all

845
00:39:37,559 --> 00:39:39,719
gonna come down to how they manage that offense. They

846
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,400
gotta stay healthier than they were last year when just

847
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,639
a rash of injuries hit them before the calendar even

848
00:39:44,639 --> 00:39:47,400
turned October. But Oklahoma is one of these teams, man

849
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:48,960
that I think we kind of have to throw out

850
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,880
the twenty tens of expectations for them. As proud as

851
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:54,960
they are and understand this is a new world that

852
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,000
they're dealing with and coming off the year that they had.

853
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 5: Last year, they have a huge, huge hurdle to overcome

854
00:40:00,079 --> 00:40:00,440
this year.

855
00:40:01,039 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 4: Are there?

856
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,760
Speaker 3: He is Connor Ugera Saturday down South. I mean just

857
00:40:05,119 --> 00:40:07,119
couldn't get him on the phone. He didn't give up

858
00:40:07,679 --> 00:40:10,280
too gritty to be pretty jumped on the zoom. We

859
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,880

863
00:40:19,199 --> 00:40:23,159
I can't. I can't like Eli Drinkwitz and the Missouri Tigers.

909
00:42:46,679 --> 00:42:49,639
I have no idea what to believe or what not

910
00:42:49,679 --> 00:42:51,960
to believe when it comes to the New Orleans Saints.

911
00:42:52,639 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 4: And I know that's scary.

912
00:42:54,519 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 3: I know it's a little frightening, but I also kind

913
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,519
of like it. There's a great unknown out there and

914
00:43:00,559 --> 00:43:04,519
we're all expecting them to be really bad. But sometimes

915
00:43:04,679 --> 00:43:07,760
when you have a young team mixed with certainly some

916
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,159
savvy evets, you got a young team, you got a

917
00:43:10,199 --> 00:43:11,480
young quarterback.

918
00:43:11,119 --> 00:43:13,119
Speaker 2: Especially with a you don't know any coach and a

919
00:43:13,159 --> 00:43:15,880
new young coach you don't know any better. Yeah, we

920
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,880
tend to forget because we look at, you know, the

921
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,199
the injuries they had last year and how bad it

922
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,800
kind of was, how ugly it looked last year. You

923
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,199
tend to forget that going to the off season. You

924
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:29,000
want to say, man, it's not going to be good.

925
00:43:29,039 --> 00:43:31,199
We don't have the answers here there's a question mark there.

926
00:43:31,199 --> 00:43:33,119
We got a young quarterback, new coach, what are we

927
00:43:33,159 --> 00:43:35,039
gonna do? Blah blah blah blah. You tend to forget

928
00:43:35,079 --> 00:43:38,440
that there's a roster full of NFL football players on

929
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,760
that team, and they're all pretty damn good. So you

930
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,599
never really know what to expect. Every single year, whether

931
00:43:44,639 --> 00:43:48,639
it's high school, college, NFL, no matter what, there's always

932
00:43:48,679 --> 00:43:54,320
somebody something that surprises you. So the question has to

933
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,280
be asked, why not the Saints.

934
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,199
Speaker 3: I'm intrigued with all the new intrigued with the quarterback

935
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,599
competition obviously, But you said it like, you have a

936
00:44:04,639 --> 00:44:07,679
young head coach, you have a innovative, young head coach.

937
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:11,119
You have somebody that has been in multiple places, kind

938
00:44:11,119 --> 00:44:13,880
of found himself in multiple offenses, and what can he

939
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,800
take from each offense that he's been a part of.

940
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,320
He's had different quarterbacks like Dak Prescott's never going to

941
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:21,679
be confused for Justin Herbert.

942
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,039
Speaker 4: Justin Herbis is never going to be confused for Jalen Hurst.

943
00:44:24,159 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurst is never going to be confused for whoever

944
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:29,000
wins the Saints job. And I think that's a positive

945
00:44:29,079 --> 00:44:31,400
for Kelli more than the fact that he's been successful

946
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,480
with three different types of quarterbacks.

947
00:44:33,039 --> 00:44:34,800
Speaker 2: And it's pretty positive. Like all the things that we're

948
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,559
hearing from the reports, whether it's from Nick or reporters

949
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,000
or you know, Scott the quarterbacks coach, like everything seems

950
00:44:42,079 --> 00:44:44,360
really positive. And what I like about it is you

951
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:46,159
do have this young coaching staff, but they like they

952
00:44:46,159 --> 00:44:50,360
are young, open offensive coaching staff that is going to

953
00:44:50,519 --> 00:44:53,920
maneuver this offense around the talent. They're not going to

954
00:44:56,039 --> 00:44:58,480
move the talent around their offense, right, They're going to

955
00:44:58,519 --> 00:45:01,039
build it around the talent, which is really cool. And

956
00:45:01,039 --> 00:45:03,159
that's what you see with these young coaches and these

957
00:45:03,199 --> 00:45:06,639
guys that know no ball have been around, like you said,

958
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,760
around a lot of different types of talent, a lot

959
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,559
of different types of quarterback. So that could be really exciting.

960
00:45:11,639 --> 00:45:14,440
We could be better than people are giving us credit for.

961
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,800
I just said us, look at me, whoa, whoa.

962
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,079
Speaker 4: You did get paid by them.

963
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,280
Speaker 2: Though, that's true last time I ever put on. But

964
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:23,719
then you look on the defensive side of the ball,

965
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,519
A lot of questions there, but you have an x

966
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:29,840
NFL head coach running the defense and who has been

967
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,599
a successful defensive coordinator of the passage why he got

968
00:45:32,639 --> 00:45:34,000
the job as a head coach. Yeah.

969
00:45:34,039 --> 00:45:36,599
Speaker 3: I mean he was successful early on as a head coach,

970
00:45:36,679 --> 00:45:38,320
and that thing went sideways on him quick.

971
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,320
Speaker 2: There's a few bad decisions, maybe too much in the

972
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:41,599
analytics game, little.

973
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,039
Speaker 4: Aggressive, little aggress little agressive.

974
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,039
Speaker 2: Some of those fourth down, Hey, every possession ends and

975
00:45:45,159 --> 00:45:51,480
up go forward and miss it failed for every failed fourth.

976
00:45:51,599 --> 00:45:53,760
Speaker 3: We had Jimbo and we should have said, hey, coach,

977
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:54,840
every possession ins in.

978
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,199
Speaker 4: And you think I just said it?

979
00:45:56,679 --> 00:46:01,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. Yeah, Ted toughness after discipline, Ted, Nick.

980

Speaker 4: Underhill, know, other stuffootball when we come back off the bench.

00:46:08,559 --> 00:46:10,800
