00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,840
my top like three hundred guests.

25
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,719

33
00:01:46,799 --> 00:01:47,560

Speaker 9: Uh.

35
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,159
Speaker 4: It is our first official show together. Although you know,

36
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,400
Matt and I have done a lot of radio together.

37
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,719
Matt's done some radio here. I don't want to say

38
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,519
a lot. There's a lot of Wednesdays we didn't know

39
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,799
where he was. He's here today. It is, as Tata said,

40
00:02:01,799 --> 00:02:05,000
a new era here for OTV. We are fired up,

41
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:07,879
and look, we will get to the baseball game. We'll

42
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,120
get to the game tonight, but I do want to

43
00:02:10,159 --> 00:02:12,719
lay out the show here kind of before we get rolling.

44
00:02:13,159 --> 00:02:17,680
We're gonna have Jimbo Fisher, our former offensive coordinator of course,

45
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,800
head coach at Florida State, Texas A and m He's

46
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,639
going to join us at seven thirty.

47
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,319
Speaker 7: I cannot wait to talk to you.

48
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 4: Oh really. So it was like when he was still

49
00:02:29,319 --> 00:02:30,120
at Florida State.

50
00:02:30,159 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 7: I remember it was post playing, I believe, and he

51
00:02:32,759 --> 00:02:33,960
was like, Yeah, we need to get you down there

52
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,560
and talk some empty protections. Blah blah blah, I hadn't.

53
00:02:36,599 --> 00:02:38,599
I never spoke to him after he went to A

54
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,479
and M. Oh, it's been a minute though, Okay, all.

55
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 4: Right, Well I'm excited about that. See, I have caught

56
00:02:45,159 --> 00:02:48,159
up with coach a bunch he hosts with us on

57
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,719
Tuesdays over on off campus throughout the entire football season.

58
00:02:51,719 --> 00:02:52,960
And then when he was at A and M, I

59
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,719
had a chance to cover games and I sit there

60
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:59,960
and I talk with him, and you know, he tell

61
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,360
bad he'd tell bad stories about me. I tell him

62
00:03:03,479 --> 00:03:05,520
how he made up six different cuss words and put

63
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,319
him together, and he was usually talking to you were JaMarcus,

64
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,639
And so I'm excited about that. We gave him seven

65
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,840
thirty because if you've ever listened to Jimbo talk, there's

66
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,240
no way in the world we could do close to

67
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,840
an end of an hour or a heartbreak. So he's

68
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,360
at seven thirty. We'll try to get out like by

69
00:03:22,439 --> 00:03:24,599
seven forty nine to make sure we hit all of

70
00:03:24,599 --> 00:03:28,800
our marks. We got aj Hawk joining us at eight o'clock.

71
00:03:28,879 --> 00:03:31,120
Let's give Flynn around him flows he did his job

72
00:03:31,159 --> 00:03:35,919
for the first time contribution because we did hanging with

73
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,159
hester for those years. I don't know, I really don't

74
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,479
remember how long that show was, but we did it

75
00:03:41,479 --> 00:03:43,800
for a long time. And he brought one guest.

76
00:03:44,199 --> 00:03:47,639
Speaker 7: No, uh yeah, you run Evan Mooreymore brought one guest

77
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,000
and a great guest.

78
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,199
Speaker 4: Yeah, talk to him all the time on other shows.

79
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:54,800
You brought one guest in two years. At least two

80
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,599
years we did that. So you're doing better A J.

81
00:03:57,759 --> 00:03:58,000

Speaker 7: I'm officially media guy now, so you are, like it

83
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,479

Speaker 5: To the column, a whole column.

112
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,800

113
00:05:16,879 --> 00:05:20,319
Jones joining us at nine am. And then, of course

114
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,720
it is Monday, so we've got Devin snow Hold the

115
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,040
Mayo joining us at nine point fifteen. No, this is

116
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,680
not a Dak Prescott jersey. This is a Jonathan Moxon jersey.

117
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,360
Do you think Dak Prescott won state championships in nineteen

118
00:05:34,399 --> 00:05:36,839
eighty seven and eighty nine. Well Moxing didn't either, but

119
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:37,639
Bud Kilmer did.

120
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,079
Speaker 5: Like Kilmer, sure as heck did.

121
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,879
Speaker 4: So this was a look. I saved this for today

122
00:05:43,439 --> 00:05:46,839
because if there's one thing that Flynn and I share together,

123
00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:50,000
it is our love for varsity blues. Although, like I'm

124
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,160
probably gonna take it off at some point because Flynn

125
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,279
brought us nice new hoodies. Check this out.

126
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, this is limited edition, limited print, short print,

127
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,560
very short because Jacob changed the logo after it, but

128
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,519
straight this will be in the to be exhibit.

129
00:06:08,639 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 4: There's nothing that says we can't use that logo as well. Yeah,

130
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,759
I think I think it's as we've learned here over

131
00:06:15,759 --> 00:06:18,959
the last couple of weeks, like kind of know what

132
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,759

133
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,079
with all due respect. But we're still doing it.

134
00:06:26,759 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 7: Well, we all got these hoodies now, so we need

135
00:06:28,639 --> 00:06:30,079
to pick a day where we all wear.

136
00:06:29,959 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 5: Them together like a uniform.

137
00:06:31,439 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 4: Okay, are we going to roll in a media day

138
00:06:33,639 --> 00:06:34,720
all wearing the same hoodie?

139
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 5: There's no doubt about it.

140
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 4: I actually I might have something, uh something on the

141
00:06:40,319 --> 00:06:40,600
way too.

142
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:41,800

00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 5: Can I say something?

147
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:48,519
Speaker 4: Yeah?

148
00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 5: Can I say how fired up I am to be

149
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:51,879

Speaker 5: So funny?

155
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,319
Speaker 7: Well, like someone I was taught that when somebody's speaking,

156
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:09,759
you don't interrupt them.

157
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,879

00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,600

00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,519
Speaker 7: So are you trying to tell all the children out there?

170
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,920
When you become adults you can just be rude and

171
00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:47,600
interrupt people.

172
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,120

00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,519

But it's our turn now, so let's freaking flester.

227
00:10:27,919 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 4: It's actually really good. Absolutely, I'm a poet. Well done, hangover, Yes,

228
00:10:36,799 --> 00:10:37,320
there's one.

229
00:10:37,399 --> 00:10:38,679
Speaker 6: I was one in the wolf pack.

230
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 8: After you said like you, Paul, You're like, all right,

231
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,639
I'm like's not it going.

232
00:10:49,759 --> 00:10:52,799
Speaker 4: I know Flynn is going to be closer to that

233
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,279
movie than you think, and you will learn that over time.

234
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,200
What are you talking about, hangover?

235
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,039
Speaker 5: I'm a father and businessman.

236
00:11:00,759 --> 00:11:04,399
Speaker 7: And a businessman and immediate column writer.

237
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,799
Speaker 4: I can't wait. If you've did you say a poem?

238
00:11:07,799 --> 00:11:10,720
I I did? I did. If you're listening and you

239
00:11:10,799 --> 00:11:13,240
work for Louising on sports dot net and which there

240
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,679
is many Flynn has put his services up.

241
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 5: To write a column, I could even write poems.

242
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,399
Speaker 4: I think on your first column you should write because

243
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,200
if there's one thing that you know more than anything

244
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,639
in sports, it's not LSU. It is not the Green

245
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:33,440
Bay Packers. It is the nineteen ninety five Texas Rangers.

246
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,120
What you know more about them than you do teams

247
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,360
you've played on? And I mean that sincerely. What it's like,

248
00:11:40,639 --> 00:11:45,879
It's like it's the only sports nugget that you know.

249
00:11:47,279 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 7: I mean, so, look, so I don't know a lot

250
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,960
about like name stats, blah blah blah. I can tell

251
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,600
you mindsets. I can tell you what the players should

252
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,360
be feeding doing blah blah blah. I can talk the

253
00:11:58,399 --> 00:12:01,559
heck out of some past protections. But now then I'm

254
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,919
a immediate. Guy, I'm gonna learn it. I'm gonna do it.

255
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,159
Speaker 4: But I like the never you got a point, You've

256
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,840
got this space in your brain for like one. Gonzales

257
00:12:09,879 --> 00:12:14,960
and me and my dad used to every single Texas

258
00:12:15,039 --> 00:12:17,159
Ranger game ground up, just like you with the Brakes,

259
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,639
with the Brads TBS.

260
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 7: We need to ask Chipper does he really like does

261
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,440
he know like what kind of boost TBS gave his

262
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,039
probably like his career.

263
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 4: It's actually a good question, like.

264
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,519
Speaker 7: Legit because it was sure like he was the only

265
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,639
person played probably coast to coast, right, the only team.

266
00:12:36,799 --> 00:12:40,759
Speaker 4: Oh, I mean it was in the Cubs WGN. You

267
00:12:40,799 --> 00:12:44,000
know they'd be on WGN. But what what the superstation

268
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,440
did for the Braves. No, it's it's a good point.

269
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,799
I mean all of those Braves during that that time

270
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,679
period were probably a little bit more famous because.

271
00:12:52,519 --> 00:12:55,639
Speaker 5: Every a little bit they had been ton yeh.

272
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 4: The entire Southeast with Brave fans. Rangers would have waxed

273
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,200
them though, yeah.

274
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 7: Waxed them the range the other day like how they

275
00:13:05,919 --> 00:13:07,720
not win like multiple worlds here?

276
00:13:07,759 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I said, I said they were actually built for

277
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:15,080
uh slow pitch softball championships and not actual baseball championships

278
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,320
with the guys that they had. That's fair. Now, if

279
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,320
they put a bench press out there and said, dude,

280
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,360
two twenty five as many times as you can, that

281
00:13:22,519 --> 00:13:25,240
Ranger squad, nobody's even compete.

282
00:13:24,919 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 5: Skills competition, they would have dominated.

283
00:13:26,799 --> 00:13:30,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, real baseball games, though not great.

284
00:13:30,279 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 5: Not bad.

285
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 4: Close.

286
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 8: They're also pretty close to Dallas, so they're kind of

287
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:35,200
built to disappoint.

288
00:13:35,799 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 5: Oh, for being honest, that's probably that's a fair point.

289
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 7: I mean, legit, but they I feel like they when

290
00:13:41,399 --> 00:13:43,000
I was they always lost first round to the.

291
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,559
Speaker 4: Yankees every year. Yep. They had the pitching.

292
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 7: Kenny Rogers perfect game, A buddy, it was that that game. Anyway,

293
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,000
No one cares. That's listening.

294
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,039
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, they do talk about Rangers nineteen ninety five. Yeah,

295
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,960
there might be somebody, maybe somebody I bet George up

296
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:06,000
listening exactly should we get him on? Ye? Have you

297
00:14:06,039 --> 00:14:09,320
met him? Yeah? I met him. I met him. Probably

298
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,559
listen and you did not get his digits?

299
00:14:11,639 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 7: Do you think he's Probably he is probably listening. So

300
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,240
congrats listeners out there, you're listening with probably multiple former presidents.

301
00:14:19,279 --> 00:14:23,519
Speaker 4: And on that note, all right, so obviously we're very excited.

Speaker 3: R and B thursdaysays, but like it's the vibe that

345
00:16:45,799 --> 00:16:48,519
I feel. But then like I keep it on that

346
00:16:48,519 --> 00:16:50,000
that vibe.

347
00:16:50,039 --> 00:16:54,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, she's not gonna go like Usher to raging its

348
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:59,600
machine to h O A R like you like. I mean,

349
00:17:00,279 --> 00:17:02,200
that's what I'm saying. Like, it's just it's okay, I

350
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,920
wasn't a shot. I'm saying. No, it's gonna be a

351
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,880
common theme now for the rest of the show. I mean,

352
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,680
our is just you know, pleasant music there, they're good.

353
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:11,759
Speaker 5: That's not like us.

354
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:13,839
Speaker 4: I just that's one of the ones that like in college,

355
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,119
I remember you, you know, getting out the CD buklet

356
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:21,119
and flipping and flipping and finding like a burnt oar.

357
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 5: C not like a obviously not a bot C D.

358
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:26,759
Speaker 4: No, that thing was right.

359
00:17:26,839 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 6: So we're going to rate his Uh, you only had

360
00:17:29,559 --> 00:17:30,799
like fifteen seconds or two.

361
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 4: I think I got maybe like on the next one.

362
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,039
On the next one, I'm going ahead. Let you know,

363
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,480
let's get Gordon. So get your mind right, because I'm

364
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,039
giving you longer like I gave you seven seconds there.

365
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,960
Now we're going to go at least twelve. Let's keep

366
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,880
it under ten. Let's go at least twelve. Give me

367
00:17:48,039 --> 00:17:51,119
twelve twelve seconds, twelve seconds, all right, right, we need

368
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,279
to get a clock. We have a giant one right there,

369
00:17:54,319 --> 00:17:55,680
and a Landra does a great job.

370
00:17:55,759 --> 00:17:56,839
Speaker 5: Okay, get Gordon so amazing.

371
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,559
Speaker 4: We don't even need it, Like I just want to

372
00:17:59,559 --> 00:18:02,960
blow yourself. No, you just said no, you have to

373
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,559
do that. You have to do that, just like we

374
00:18:05,599 --> 00:18:09,039
got to talk about LSU baseball. Let's go. Last night,

375
00:18:09,079 --> 00:18:12,559
they dropped the game ten to four too Little Rock. Now,

376
00:18:12,759 --> 00:18:15,400
as we know, on Friday they get the victory over

377
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,880
Little Rock seven to nothing. On Saturday, a great game,

378
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,160
they take care of DBU twelve to nothing, and so

379
00:18:22,319 --> 00:18:24,359
last night you're feeling good. I was like I was

380
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,559
in the number. The box was great, the box was ready,

381
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,000
like they wanted a big hit, a big moment, and

382
00:18:31,079 --> 00:18:32,839
you could just feel it. And it was one of

383
00:18:32,839 --> 00:18:35,400
those times that when you go there, you're just waiting

384
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,960
for the top to just blow off of that place,

385
00:18:38,039 --> 00:18:41,759
right And unfortunately, as we all know, LSU just never

386
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,640
gave them that. They had the bases loaded a couple

387
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,440
of times, didn't do anything with it, and so you

388
00:18:47,559 --> 00:18:50,519
fall to Little Rock ten to four last night. And

389
00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:52,599
it was a late game. I mean I looked up

390
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,200
it was like in the fifth inning, top of the

391
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,519
fifth and it was like ten forty five, and we

392
00:18:57,559 --> 00:18:59,559
had all the kids out there, and I knew that

393
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,400
I had work pretty soon. I was like, we got

394
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:03,119
to get out of here.

395
00:19:04,519 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 6: Third inning was forever forever.

396
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 3: Like I left the I left the stadium during the

397
00:19:11,039 --> 00:19:14,319
bottom of the third inning, got home, took a shower,

398
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:14,960
and it was.

399
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 6: Still the bottom of the third inning. When I got

400
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,599
in bed, I was like, what is happening?

401
00:19:19,079 --> 00:19:21,759
Speaker 4: A lot of a lot of you know, mound visits,

402
00:19:21,759 --> 00:19:25,440
a lot of walks, yeah, eleven to be exact. For

403
00:19:25,599 --> 00:19:29,960
the LSU Tigers and Elandra, how many times have we

404
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,519
sat here over the last couple of months. And the

405
00:19:32,599 --> 00:19:34,839
one thing now, I know the offense can go quiet

406
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,160
some but the one thing that we talked about you

407
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,759
couldn't do. You gotta fix, you can't have it was

408
00:19:40,839 --> 00:19:45,759
the free passes by the pitching staff. And obviously the

409
00:19:45,759 --> 00:19:48,200
first two games you hold them scoreless, you've done great.

410
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,880
But that is the one thing. And look else, she's

411
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,680
playing for their lives today or tonight. It's gonna be

412
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,119
another late game, eight pm Central time, first pitch. That's

413
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,599
the thing that can keep them out of a.

414
00:19:58,559 --> 00:20:01,279
Speaker 3: Super regional and on I was telling you all this

415
00:20:01,319 --> 00:20:04,359
before the game started. I feel like in that bottom

416
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,480
of the third inning, Jay kind of saw the riding

417
00:20:06,519 --> 00:20:08,920
on the wall and that's why we didn't see Cowen

418
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,640
or Evans out there yesterday, and we're probably gonna see

419
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,920
him today. Maybe Evans gets to start. I don't know,

420
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,960
but yeah, I mean, you can't give up eleven walks,

421
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,519
and that's just I think it was a season high

422
00:20:21,759 --> 00:20:23,480
that LSU has given up eleven walks.

423
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 4: Now, like this isn't I'm not all the umpires. You

424
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,079
lost ten to four, Okay, you lost the game. The

425
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,480
zone was never identified by the homeplate umpire of what

426
00:20:32,519 --> 00:20:33,240
it was going to be.

427
00:20:33,319 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't disagree with that at all.

428
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 4: No, I mean, so that's all you have to do,

429
00:20:37,039 --> 00:20:39,279
even if it's a big zone. You just got to

430
00:20:39,279 --> 00:20:40,759
tell me what the zone is. Right.

431
00:20:40,839 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 7: I watched a lot I had baseball like on all weekend,

432
00:20:44,759 --> 00:20:47,160
like different games throughout the country. I felt like most

433
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,000
of the games I was watching, the strike zone was

434
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,279
super super tight. I don't know if it's been like

435
00:20:51,319 --> 00:20:53,200
that like all season, because I'm not gonna sit here

436
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,799
in this chair and pretend like I've been like the

437
00:20:54,799 --> 00:20:57,440
biggest baseball guy, right, but we're watching Yeah, but I

438
00:20:57,519 --> 00:20:59,680
do know the mindset of athletes, and I do know,

439
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:04,440
like from a thrower's perspective, like what can really happen

440
00:21:04,839 --> 00:21:09,880
when stuff isn't going your way? And sometimes things snowball,

441
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,960
like when you're a quarterback and you're you're out there throwing,

442
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,200
like sometimes like the wide open guy is the hardest

443
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:15,880
person to hit because like it's a throw you're supposed

444
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,279
to be, yeah, and you start.

445
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:17,400
Speaker 5: To aim it.

446
00:21:18,599 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 7: Sometimes when you throw a bunch of incomplete passes or

447
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,559
in or something like, your confidence goes down and you

448
00:21:22,599 --> 00:21:24,240
try to guide the ball, you try to push it,

449
00:21:24,279 --> 00:21:26,400
like you try to make things happen instead of just

450
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,160
like reacting, competing and letting the body and your practice

451
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,599
take over. It's the same thing on any type of thrower, kicker, swinger.

452
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,720
So you're pitching and things aren't going your way, you

453
00:21:36,839 --> 00:21:40,480
have to have some sort of reset.

454
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 5: But sometimes you're just you're just chasing out there, right, so.

455
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 7: You get a couple walks, even if it wasn't you,

456
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,200
Even if you're in the bullpen and you know that

457
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,079
your guys in front of you have eight walks so far,

458
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,119
it's like, all right, I'm going to the mound.

459
00:21:54,519 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 4: Do not walk. Do not walk.

460
00:21:56,759 --> 00:21:58,799
Speaker 7: You never want to have that mindset right. It's like

461
00:21:58,839 --> 00:22:01,039
going as a quarterback going to say, do not throw

462
00:22:01,039 --> 00:22:04,599
an interception like that is a terrible way to play sports,

463
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:09,680
and that mindset translates to any sport really, so hit reset.

464
00:22:09,839 --> 00:22:12,279
Yeah you got for some reason, they're playing at eight

465
00:22:12,319 --> 00:22:15,880
pm tonight, so what are we doing? So like you

466
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,480
got hours, Like, so get your mind right, get the

467
00:22:18,519 --> 00:22:22,079
confidence up, do something like it's this is where the

468
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:29,720
mindset of a championship caliber team is supposed to make

469
00:22:29,759 --> 00:22:32,680
the difference between a you know, a mediocre team. Yeah,

470
00:22:32,759 --> 00:22:35,319
so obviously we're not mediocre, but like it says, this

471
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:36,799
is where you you got to reset.

472
00:22:36,839 --> 00:22:37,599
Speaker 5: You got to come out and be.

473
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 4: Confident and you can't allow like I saw it in

474
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,799
Gosh every like anybody that covers college baseball, like on Instagram,

475
00:22:44,319 --> 00:22:47,359
like shocking college baseball, You're not gonna believe what happens,

476
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,960
Like what And then like I'd get in the comments

477
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,960
and be like this is like a sixteen beating one.

478
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,720
I'm like, no, it's not baseball.

479
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 6: I mean number team in the country.

480
00:22:58,279 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, four four seeds one on opening day.

481
00:23:04,559 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's baseball. And the thing about baseball is

482
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,720
you got a chance to come right back. It's not

483
00:23:10,759 --> 00:23:13,119
like football. It's not like Damn, I gotta wait till

484
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,680
next Sunday. Are you kidding me? No, Let's you get

485
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:20,599
the opportunity right now. And I think having Evans and

486
00:23:20,759 --> 00:23:24,000
Cowen and where you're not gonna find, like there's a

487
00:23:24,039 --> 00:23:26,240
lot of teams playing today right to go to super Regional,

488
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,880
you're not going to find many that have those three

489
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:30,640
arms available for them today.

490
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 5: Right.

491
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 4: Certainly the two in Evanson.

492
00:23:32,599 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 3: Cowen right and Little Rock has played a lot of games,

493
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:40,599
yeah for sure, and they won't be yeah game.

494
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,279
Speaker 4: They scored forty runs in the last three days.

495
00:23:43,319 --> 00:23:47,319
Speaker 6: That was crazy. To ten over Rhode Island. That was crazy.

496
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 5: You're gonna have the pigeon advantage.

497
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,559
Speaker 8: My bigger concern was the fourth and fifth starters for

498
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:54,640
this team held you to four runs yesterday.

499
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,799
Speaker 4: That was that's not that because the speeds and and

500
00:23:58,839 --> 00:24:00,799
that's we've seen that so many times now. You got

501
00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:02,359
to adjust to it. It's gonna be the same today.

502
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:03,119
It's Dallas bad.

503
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 8: This unfortunately has been the outlier for this team, not

504
00:24:06,039 --> 00:24:07,480
the four runs against Little Rock.

505
00:24:07,839 --> 00:24:09,599
Speaker 5: But you know, I was looking at the box.

506
00:24:09,319 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 8: Score a little bit last night before the game. Uh,

507
00:24:12,759 --> 00:24:15,960
and then this morning obviously after the game finished. Stephen

508
00:24:16,079 --> 00:24:19,680
Mylam is six for eight with four RBS and four

509
00:24:19,759 --> 00:24:22,400
runs scored in this regional. Like, that's a guy that

510
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,920
we had talked about, like, oh, you're going to get

511
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,680
it from Kuriel, You're hopefully going to get it from Dickens.

512
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 6: And you can stop up to Stephen.

513
00:24:29,279 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 8: Mylam Like Stephen Mylum six for eight, four RB i

514
00:24:31,799 --> 00:24:33,880
s in the in this regional so far, that's a

515
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:34,599
guy you have to have.

516
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:35,759
Speaker 5: Like, I get it.

517
00:24:35,799 --> 00:24:37,839
Speaker 8: You're pitching one and grade last night, the hitting one grade,

518
00:24:37,839 --> 00:24:39,119
but like mya has been a bright spot.

519
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, no doubt about it. And look, we're gonna continue

520
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,039
talking baseball. If we don't have a guess, it's gonna

521
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,079
probably be L s U baseball today and we're gonna

522
00:24:47,079 --> 00:24:52,039
break down. That's that's fair, that's teasing.

523
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,519
Speaker 7: Yeah, you say, there's one pretty simple key to it,

524
00:24:54,559 --> 00:24:55,839
all right, and we'll get to that later.

525
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,200

Speaker 9: What's up? Guys?

555
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,319
Speaker 4: Can you believe that I got Matthew Clayton Flynn up

556
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:27,880
before seven am?

557
00:26:28,279 --> 00:26:29,599
Speaker 9: It's umbelid, That's what I said.

558
00:26:29,599 --> 00:26:31,079
Speaker 2: I was worried. You said you had that early show.

559
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:32,599
I said, is he going to show up halfway through?

560
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 9: Or what's to do?

561
00:26:33,519 --> 00:26:33,759
Speaker 2: I was.

562
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 7: I was an extremely accomplished sleeper in college. I think

563
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,160
when there's one time I slept about fifteen straight hours.

564
00:26:39,599 --> 00:26:41,279
Speaker 5: Uh, Jack Richie couldn't even track it.

565
00:26:42,039 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 9: I remember it was funny. I remember that he's say

566
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,480
used to sleep all the time. That's why I was.

567
00:26:48,039 --> 00:26:49,799
I did that to ask for he was laughing at me.

568
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,839
Speaker 5: Never in meetings though. No, it was.

569
00:26:52,759 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 2: Time when it was time to go now right, there's

570
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:55,759
no doubt about that.

571
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,559
Speaker 9: There's no doubt about that coach.

572
00:26:57,599 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 4: We were talking last week with Flynn before he's are

573
00:27:00,279 --> 00:27:02,079
to I think I got to ask you the question,

574
00:27:02,839 --> 00:27:07,200
how did you recruit an honorable mention? All district quarterback

575
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,440
in the in the district that only had four teams,

576
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:10,720
and the guy was honorable mention.

577
00:27:11,599 --> 00:27:13,559
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you one of the funniest stories you're

578
00:27:13,599 --> 00:27:17,119
ever going to hear. This is honest, God's truth. We

579
00:27:17,319 --> 00:27:20,599
go and his this is how because Matt, Matt's one

580
00:27:20,599 --> 00:27:24,160
of the most accomplished I mean a guy that who

581
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:24,519
he did.

582
00:27:24,559 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 9: What he did in high school really impressed me because.

583
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,559
Speaker 2: If I'm not right, Matt, but your junior year you

584
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,920
spent time with another.

585
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:37,279
Speaker 7: Guy I did halfway through your junior year to halfway

586
00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:38,039
through your junior year.

587
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 9: After got six games, he made the decision.

588
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 2: The kid was a great athlete because you had had

589
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:43,880
a bunch of schools come to you and say, hey,

590
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,720
transfer here, you don't have to put up with it,

591
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,119
and you got mad with all your other sports, said nope,

592
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,160
I'm gonna be the starting quarterback and went and won

593
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:51,599
the job.

594
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,799
Speaker 9: So he only played a little bit. So we we

595
00:27:55,839 --> 00:27:56,160
did a.

596
00:27:56,079 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 2: Great We searched and searched, and so I'm watching all

597
00:27:58,759 --> 00:28:01,599
this film and they put this film in front of me.

598
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,880
I remember I got the film and I watched and

599
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,400
I said, I really liked it, and they said, well, Jim,

600
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,519
this guy he hain't hardly ever played the only started

601
00:28:08,559 --> 00:28:11,279
sixt game. We need to slow down. I said, well,

602
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:15,720
there's a that's at the time when those combines the coaches.

603
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 9: Could go to them. And there was a combine at

604
00:28:18,759 --> 00:28:19,400
A and M.

605
00:28:19,759 --> 00:28:23,079
Speaker 2: And Derrek Duley had that part of Houston and that there,

606
00:28:23,079 --> 00:28:24,720
and there was a combine at A and M.

607
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 9: And so Matt was going to be at that Nike combine.

608
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,039
I think it was not. I believe it, am I right, Matt,

609
00:28:32,319 --> 00:28:33,119
that's right, all right.

610
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 2: So we get back and I said, this guy's under

611
00:28:35,759 --> 00:28:37,759
the radar, Derk, but go why this he runs? Well,

612
00:28:37,759 --> 00:28:40,440
he's athletic days they don't throw it a lot because

613
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:41,559
your coach, I remember, he was.

614
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 7: From Louisiana, two lane offensive lineman.

615
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,119
Speaker 9: Yep, and that's what he wanted to do, run the football.

616
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 2: And y'all had to end up having a great team

617
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,359
because y'all flipped around and won a couple of state

618
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,640
championships after that. But anyway, so that so I said,

619
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,160
just go look at this guy. I just want to

620
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,000
This is a guy that made sneak under the radar

621
00:28:59,079 --> 00:29:00,720
that just we could get in on. I when we

622
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,279
were on everybody in the country. But I said, I

623
00:29:02,359 --> 00:29:06,160
like this guy as well as anybody. So Derek, Derek's

624
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:10,559
a young coach. Derek goes to the combine and and

625
00:29:10,599 --> 00:29:12,400
Derek used to come up with some of the craziest

626
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,440
reasons to like a guy or not like a guy.

627
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,519
And so he comes back and he said, you know,

628
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,640
well he you know, he's not overly tall.

629
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 9: He was about six to one at that time.

630
00:29:21,039 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 2: I right, Mattes, that sounds and so he said he's

631
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,759
not really you know, but he said he moved pretty well.

632
00:29:27,039 --> 00:29:29,279
But he said this is this now, he said, Jim,

633
00:29:29,279 --> 00:29:30,759
but I just didn't like him, and he said.

634
00:29:30,559 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 9: He got he had fat ankles. He said he had

635
00:29:34,559 --> 00:29:35,200
fat ankle.

636
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,079
Speaker 2: We all, you know, most of your athletes have skinny ankles,

637
00:29:38,079 --> 00:29:38,599
you know what I mean.

638
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,119
Speaker 9: He said he had fat ankles, and he was okay,

639
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,680
but just I said, this kind of downplayed him. And

640
00:29:44,759 --> 00:29:46,599
I said, dang, that's not what you know.

641
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 2: I said, oh, you know, of course, I said, okay, Derek,

642
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,359
you were there, you saw him in person. So this

643
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:56,039
was probably around March February or March, and I said,

644
00:29:56,039 --> 00:29:58,880
you know, that just doesn't sound I mean, I didn't

645
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,599
match that. You know, later on I was you know,

646
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,440
I get so thorough on things. Our check, recheck, rewatch

647
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,759
film and go watch. I watch a player ten times

648
00:30:06,839 --> 00:30:08,519
because sometimes you're in the wrong moved you get a

649
00:30:08,519 --> 00:30:10,079
different impression of a guy, you know what I mean.

650
00:30:10,279 --> 00:30:11,799
Or if you had something on your mind, you'll watch

651
00:30:11,799 --> 00:30:14,599
a guy sometimes you evaluate or so I try to

652
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,000
do it multiple times to be very thorough. So I

653
00:30:17,039 --> 00:30:19,599
go back and I watch the film and I said,

654
00:30:19,839 --> 00:30:22,079
what Derek said don't match up with this film.

655
00:30:22,519 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 9: I said, I love this guy. I said, there's something

656
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:25,119
about this guy.

657
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,279
Speaker 2: So of course then you couldn't get nick if you

658
00:30:28,319 --> 00:30:30,200
went something when you went with him, if you didn't

659
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,279
have your is dotted and teased crawl and you took

660
00:30:32,319 --> 00:30:35,240
him recruiting okay, and he went in. He was only

661
00:30:35,279 --> 00:30:37,119
going in for the kill, you know what I mean.

662
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,039
Back then, he was going in to see the school

663
00:30:39,039 --> 00:30:41,359
bang bang bang bang bang. So I got to find

664
00:30:41,359 --> 00:30:44,599
a way to get him to go by this school

665
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,640
without knowing that it's somebody we don't like. If I

666
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,480
bring up in the meeting, Dary's gonna say jam about

667
00:30:50,759 --> 00:30:54,559
I saw that guy and he had fat angle that conversation.

668
00:30:55,039 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 9: Okay, so I can't.

669
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 2: Remember how we did it, but there was another guy

670
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,279
in that area that was getting crew died.

671
00:31:00,319 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 9: And I said, and we're out there.

672
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 2: And I think Kirk Dahl was with us at the

673
00:31:03,319 --> 00:31:05,680
time too, because he had the area and.

674
00:31:06,799 --> 00:31:07,519
Speaker 9: The position guys.

675
00:31:07,559 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 2: So I said, so somehow I get us to I said, Kurt,

676
00:31:09,759 --> 00:31:11,359
we got to go by this school. So we go by,

677
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,160
and we go by Tyler, not John Tyler, because John

678
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,319
Tyler at that time was the school that was Earl

679
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,160
Campbell went to school, and then Aaron.

680
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,279
Speaker 9: And Ross and all those guys, and.

681
00:31:22,359 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 2: Your district was the number one district in the state

682
00:31:24,759 --> 00:31:27,720
of Texas. He had loved and John Tyler, y'all and

683
00:31:27,799 --> 00:31:32,079
I who else long View, I mean, everybody whoever won

684
00:31:32,119 --> 00:31:33,920
the state championship all come out of that deal.

685
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,519
Speaker 9: Y'all had won like two. Y'all were the lesser school.

686
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:40,279
Speaker 5: That time.

687
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, I remember that. And so we go by

688
00:31:44,799 --> 00:31:46,559
and and and we went in and talked to the

689
00:31:46,559 --> 00:31:49,279
coach and the next looking side eyed at me. And

690
00:31:49,559 --> 00:31:51,160
sometime back then I was the only one that could

691
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:51,599
say something.

692
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 9: I used to mean.

693
00:31:52,599 --> 00:31:54,559
Speaker 2: We we battled it, and I would stand up to

694
00:31:54,599 --> 00:31:55,799
him every now, and it'd been in a good way.

695
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,559
Nick was so thorough. I don't mean that in a

696
00:31:57,599 --> 00:31:59,880
bad way. So he goes, okay, I'll go watch this guy.

697
00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 9: We go in there.

698
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:02,799
Speaker 2: We talked to the coach and he said, and I said,

699
00:32:02,799 --> 00:32:04,119
you know, but y'all didn't throw it a lot, so

700
00:32:04,119 --> 00:32:05,519
it's hard to judge you. So I'll tell you what

701
00:32:05,559 --> 00:32:08,400
I'll throw it today. You don't had a scrimmage. I

702
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,960
don't know if you remember this or not. We're there

703
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,279
in the spring. So we come in and y'all scrimmage

704
00:32:14,319 --> 00:32:16,759
that day and y'all threw like twenty five passes. He

705
00:32:16,839 --> 00:32:20,119
threw like twenty five passes, and the scrimmage bang bang bang,

706
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,400
Matt completes like twenty four of them. Yeah, he's running

707
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,880
around making plays and he's throwing the ball all over.

708
00:32:27,319 --> 00:32:28,839
Speaker 9: And you know, Nick come over to me. He looked

709
00:32:28,839 --> 00:32:29,079
at me.

710
00:32:29,559 --> 00:32:32,039
Speaker 2: He says, youmo, this guy's a really good But I said,

711
00:32:32,039 --> 00:32:33,799
I told you he's a really good player.

712
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:35,559
Speaker 9: He said, why didn't we do that?

713
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 2: I said, because Derek said he had fat and he

714
00:32:38,519 --> 00:32:41,319
didn't look bad at he did. You know, he wasn't

715
00:32:41,359 --> 00:32:45,240
nothing special. And I'll never forget this. I'll never forget this.

716
00:32:45,359 --> 00:32:48,559
He says, Get Derek on the phone. He told me,

717
00:32:48,559 --> 00:32:50,240
he said, get Derek on the phone. We're stand there

718
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,759
watching the scrimmage. So I called Derek up. I said, hey,

719
00:32:52,839 --> 00:32:55,359
Nick wants to talk to you. Nick grabbed the phone.

720
00:32:55,359 --> 00:32:57,680
He said, hey, Derek, don't you ever recruit or nothing.

721
00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,839
Don't you ever evaluate another corter. This guy looks like

722
00:33:00,039 --> 00:33:01,440
on the United is running around here.

723
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,559
Speaker 9: He showed every ball crazy. He looking good, Derek Golton.

724
00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:08,799
I get the phone back and I'm laughing like crazy.

725
00:33:08,799 --> 00:33:11,559
You know how to Yeah, you get the phone back

726
00:33:11,599 --> 00:33:15,440
and I'm laughing like crazy. I'm laughing like I said.

727
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,119
Fat Akos Huh said he wasn't a girl.

728
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 2: Derek was laughing like crazy, and so we that we

729
00:33:25,559 --> 00:33:28,319
still he can't do then there and then Matt came

730
00:33:28,359 --> 00:33:30,160
to camp that summer and lit it up, and we

731
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,039
offered him. Matter of fact, I mean we that was

732
00:33:32,079 --> 00:33:34,319
a really good recruiting year that year quarterback, I said,

733
00:33:34,319 --> 00:33:36,200
but I love Mathma and he committed. He was the

734
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,680
first one that committed that Yearhen we signed him and

735
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,400
JaMarcus and but it was and he played his tail

736
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:42,079
off and no matter what, and I knew he was

737
00:33:42,119 --> 00:33:44,880
gonna be a great just I don't just evaluation.

738
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:45,359
Speaker 9: We saw it.

739
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to say we saw everything in the world,

740
00:33:47,279 --> 00:33:49,039
but he did it on film. He just didn't have

741
00:33:49,079 --> 00:33:51,119
a lot of opportunities in your senior year. I remember

742
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,440
the tragic story to you all season, y'all had one

743
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,720
of the best years you ever had, and you're on

744
00:33:55,799 --> 00:33:59,240
the state semi finals. Yeah, all drive in a two

745
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,000
minute drive. I don't know who you were playing. You're

746
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,720
down around the ten yard line, ten fifteen yard line,

747
00:34:03,759 --> 00:34:05,720
you walk, you're going in the score and win the game.

748
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,239
And you walked up to make a check and your

749
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:11,079
center snapped the ball about thirty yards backers like che

750
00:34:12,039 --> 00:34:12,840
am I right around.

751
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,119
Speaker 4: I hope he's not listening right now. I hope he is.

752
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 5: What doing is good?

753
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 4: The ball? The quarterback?

754
00:34:17,519 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 9: No, I know not. I mean I said it happened

755
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:20,159
to our guys.

756
00:34:20,159 --> 00:34:21,559
Speaker 2: You were making a check and not a lot of

757
00:34:21,599 --> 00:34:23,119
people did all the shotgun y'all, And that was a

758
00:34:23,119 --> 00:34:25,639
little new for y'all too, I mean for doing. And

759
00:34:25,639 --> 00:34:27,079
then because y'a were going in to win, to go

760
00:34:27,119 --> 00:34:29,320
into the state championship and you lost it, and then

761
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,480
After that, your team won a couple of state championships

762
00:34:31,519 --> 00:34:32,440
and became a great team.

763
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,320
Speaker 9: But Matt started that whole trend, and.

764
00:34:34,559 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 2: This thing about it was amazing to me though you

765
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,280
only you split time as at junior and then only

766
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:40,880
played half the time, and he had the great scene.

767
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,199
Then everybody started recruiting after the senior year, of course,

768
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,440
and he stuck with us and the rest is history.

769
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,039
But it was to me it was a testament to

770
00:34:48,039 --> 00:34:49,440
who you were as a person. That's the kind of

771
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,639
guy you wanted to play quarterback. Every time a guy

772
00:34:51,679 --> 00:34:53,960
got tested or challenged, he wasn't going to back down.

773
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,480
And you know, I'll say that both y'all were like that.

774
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,320
I know why y'all are friends. In my opinion, you're

775
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:04,079
very similar people because you both weren't high, high recruited

776
00:35:04,079 --> 00:35:07,280
guys earlier in your careers. You weren't the five star guys.

777
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,280
You turned out to be five star guys the way

778
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,519
you played, the way you think, and and somebody asked

779
00:35:11,559 --> 00:35:13,159
me that not too long ago, and I said, you know,

780
00:35:13,199 --> 00:35:15,920
the one thing about those LSU teams, we recruited really well.

781
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,519
Speaker 9: There had a lot of five star guys, but.

782
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,280
Speaker 2: We so many of our great players weren't the highly

783
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,320
rated guys that turned out to be just as good

784
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,559
or better than the five star guys and developed yourself.

785
00:35:27,679 --> 00:35:32,119
You two, Corey, Webster, Blue Gay, I mean, Travis Daniels.

786
00:35:32,159 --> 00:35:34,079
There was guys on those teams. I can go on

787
00:35:34,119 --> 00:35:37,679
and on and on that were not highly recruited guys

788
00:35:37,679 --> 00:35:39,360
that turned out to play in the NFL a long time.

789
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,480
And we're great player, great players in college and great

790
00:35:41,519 --> 00:35:44,920
pros that also fit in with those guys. And we're

791
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,280
even tougher and you know, and we had a mentality

792
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:48,960
on that team, and you guys were the key to

793
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:49,880
a big part of that.

794
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:52,519
Speaker 4: To that point.

795
00:35:52,639 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 7: Jimbo the you talked about instincts and recruiting back when

796
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,440
when Jake and I were coming out this day in

797
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:01,760
age in college football, he was.

798
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 2: Playing nose guard when I went wat tractic.

799
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 5: He's a little fat boy.

800
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,760
Speaker 7: Do you think like this day in age in college football,

801
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,400
is there less instincts in recruiting because there's so many

802
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,599
different services you got to recruit. You got to recruit

803
00:36:14,639 --> 00:36:16,480
the players that are on your roster, and you're recruiting

804
00:36:16,519 --> 00:36:17,639
other people in other colleges.

805
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 5: Plus high school is it well.

806
00:36:19,559 --> 00:36:22,039
Speaker 9: When here when here's the other thing about it. As

807
00:36:22,079 --> 00:36:24,280
soon as you get one and.

808
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,159
Speaker 2: He starts to play now and and they and they,

809
00:36:26,159 --> 00:36:29,079
if they don't go to a major school, they're going

810
00:36:29,119 --> 00:36:31,039
to get I gues said, everybody else is a juco

811
00:36:31,079 --> 00:36:33,199
for everybody. You're gonna go get bought and taken away

812
00:36:33,199 --> 00:36:35,239
from that school. The guys that do go do a

813
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,639
great job of that. And it's it's it's hard to

814
00:36:37,639 --> 00:36:40,079
hold on to it. And I tell you what's happened today.

815
00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:43,599
Guys are picking guys and they're trying to buy guys.

816
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,159
I mean I say by guys as a term because

817
00:36:46,159 --> 00:36:48,199
it's about the money instead of all the time and

818
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:53,039
effort that goes into evaluating that process and recruiting that.

819
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 9: Guy with the relationship. You know what I mean.

820
00:36:55,559 --> 00:36:58,599
Speaker 2: It is it's definitely changed, and it's a it's a

821
00:36:58,679 --> 00:37:00,760
I mean far as that part of it, it's a shame.

822
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,679
And you know, and some of those that's why I

823
00:37:02,679 --> 00:37:04,800
pity some of these other schools. And I even say this,

824
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,119
if you're not in the SEC or Big ten. Now

825
00:37:07,119 --> 00:37:10,000
maybe Clemson, Florida State, some of these other you know,

826
00:37:10,039 --> 00:37:11,800
there may be a Big twelve team or two in there,

827
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,960
but everybody else is a juco to SEC and Big

828
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:19,159
ten teams because they got all the money and they

829
00:37:19,199 --> 00:37:21,199
can go select and pick those guys and take them

830
00:37:21,199 --> 00:37:23,360
away once they do evaluate them and get them in

831
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,199
that process. But I do think a little bit of

832
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,480
that has left, in my opinion, college football, and guys

833
00:37:28,519 --> 00:37:31,239
are going around not spending as much time building relationships

834
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,719
as they are saying, well, here's four hundred and five

835
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,280
hundred whatever the value. That's just the nature of the beast.

836
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,599
The whole world's changed. And it's a shame, it really is,

837
00:37:39,639 --> 00:37:42,519
because I used to love that part of it. I

838
00:37:42,599 --> 00:37:44,000
mean a lot of those guys happen to be guys

839
00:37:44,039 --> 00:37:47,079
that I recruited, Randall and Corey Webster, and the Corey

840
00:37:47,079 --> 00:37:49,039
Webster story is crazy. I don't know if you ever

841
00:37:49,079 --> 00:37:51,400
heard that one. I was sitting there one time. I

842
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,599
was sitting there watching We've been There. It was January.

843
00:37:53,639 --> 00:37:55,440
We just goten there in December to get the job.

844
00:37:56,079 --> 00:37:58,920
And I'm sitting there watching the film and Nick said,

845
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,960
there's a receiver down in Saint John. I don't remember

846
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,719
who it was, and he says, the really.

847
00:38:04,519 --> 00:38:07,800
Speaker 9: Good player watch this film. So I'm in there watching it.

848
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,119
Speaker 2: Somebody walked in in the staff room and off of

849
00:38:10,119 --> 00:38:11,440
the staff room and talked to him, and I took

850
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:12,960
my friend because when the other team was on offense,

851
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:14,440
I would hit the fast forward button to go watch

852
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,519
this player, because you're watching so many and I took

853
00:38:16,519 --> 00:38:22,599
my finger off the button and I'm sitting there and.

854
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 9: Somebody said something.

855
00:38:25,679 --> 00:38:26,760
Speaker 2: So I wanted to look, and I went to hit

856
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,719
the button and I missed it and the fast forward button.

857
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:30,199
Speaker 9: As I did.

858
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,639
Speaker 2: Corey ran around the corner for about fifteen yards, just

859
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,320
on a run. But he made two guys miss and

860
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,440
looked just really fluid, and I said, dang. So I

861
00:38:37,519 --> 00:38:40,159
started watching it. Get down with the film. Nick says, hey,

862
00:38:40,159 --> 00:38:42,239
how's that receiver. I said, he's a good player. I said,

863
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,119
there's a quarterback down here to Saint James.

864
00:38:44,519 --> 00:38:45,880
Speaker 9: It's a heck. He said, what do you know about him?

865
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:46,559
I said, I don't know.

866
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 2: I said, I never heard of him. Said we'll call

867
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,360
down there. So I called down there and I said,

868
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,159
they said, yeah, Corey Webster is a great player. I

869
00:38:53,199 --> 00:38:55,599
said he's got one offer and I said really, I said, man,

870
00:38:55,639 --> 00:38:57,159
he looked a lot better than that on film. He said,

871
00:38:57,159 --> 00:39:00,360
he's going to Southern miss I said, Dad gone, So

872
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:01,320
I said, well is there?

873
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:02,519
Speaker 9: I said, does he not have enough up?

874
00:39:02,559 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 4: Well?

875
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 9: Maybe great? You know, I mean that guy didn't have grades.

876
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,400
Does he not have grades? Now? I said, has he

877
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:07,840
been in? And then he said, now he's got you know,

878
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,039
he's got grades. I says, he is?

879
00:39:09,079 --> 00:39:11,280
Speaker 2: He a troubled guys he get in trouble. You know,

880
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,719
maybe he's been in trouble and people don't character you

881
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:14,719
know all the is I went through it.

882
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:15,800
Speaker 9: I want to say, what the hell he said?

883
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:16,199
Speaker 4: I don't know?

884
00:39:16,599 --> 00:39:18,159
Speaker 2: So I told her he So we go down there

885
00:39:18,159 --> 00:39:20,519
and start recruiting him. And that was two weeks before

886
00:39:20,559 --> 00:39:21,280
signing guys.

887
00:39:21,679 --> 00:39:23,800
Speaker 9: Yeah, and signed Wow and signed him.

888
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,679
Speaker 2: I mean when he came at two time all Americans

889
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,000
played thirteen years in the leg or fourteen years and

890
00:39:29,039 --> 00:39:29,920
two through three Pro.

891
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:31,159
Speaker 9: Bowls and Super super Bowls.

892
00:39:31,599 --> 00:39:33,360
Speaker 2: I mean, we that's the way Randall gay, I mean,

893
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,119
all those guys are recruited like it was crazy.

894
00:39:35,199 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 9: You could find guys like that. I don't know if

895
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:37,039
it's like that.

896
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,159
Speaker 4: Coach, Yeah, want to ask you that we got about

897
00:39:39,159 --> 00:39:41,440
three minutes left. I wanted to ask you, can you

898
00:39:41,519 --> 00:39:44,440
recruit that guy anymore, like do I get an offer?

899
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,840
Does Flynn get an offer from an LSU, from a

900
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,519
Florida State, from a Texas A and M. Because it

901
00:39:49,559 --> 00:39:51,960
almost feels like you can't stand up on top of

902
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,320
the table and fight for that two star, that three

903
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,840
star guy, because now that the first to somebody else.

904
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 2: I I think it got back to the coach in

905
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:05,000
Florida State had over half of our first round picks

906
00:40:05,079 --> 00:40:08,079
were three starring down guys right during my time at

907
00:40:08,079 --> 00:40:10,159
Florida said many great players we recruited when I was there,

908
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:10,840
half of them.

909
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:11,599
Speaker 9: Were three star guys.

910
00:40:11,599 --> 00:40:14,119
Speaker 2: Then we developed guys and small guys that we thought

911
00:40:14,119 --> 00:40:16,599
fit in our system and did that. We never recruited

912
00:40:16,599 --> 00:40:19,320
by the stars. And I think you can if the

913
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,400
coach is strong enough and in his own mind to

914
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,000
do it. And because it's all gonna get back to

915
00:40:24,079 --> 00:40:25,960
one thing. That's a guy can't produce and does he

916
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,559
develop on the field, you know what I mean? The

917
00:40:27,639 --> 00:40:29,599
development parts the other thing. We're a guy in needs

918
00:40:29,599 --> 00:40:32,559
development and he starts to get passed up a little bit,

919
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,079
you know what I mean? And you're going to miss

920
00:40:35,079 --> 00:40:36,800
guys too, I mean coaches, we knows a lot of

921
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,519
guys I missed too. I mean, I'm talking about success stories.

922
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:41,800
But beyond Warner was one for us at Floridas, there

923
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:43,360
was a bunch of them, Xavier Roads. Then we're all

924
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,400
three starring guys in that we're all first round picks.

925
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:46,559
Speaker 9: There's a lot more of them.

926
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,800
Speaker 2: But to me, it depends on the program and the

927
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,400
coach and how much he believes in his own own system.

928
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 4: Coach, we could sit here and actually we're gonna ask

929
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,440
that you come back on like later on. This is

930
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,599
our first show together, so we certainly wanted to have

931
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,480
you on. You know, obviously our relationship with you, like,

932
00:41:04,559 --> 00:41:07,199
I want to have you back on here pretty soon

933
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,880
to tell the story about around the Horn, how you

934
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:11,800
saw it. We ran it in the Superdome, we ran

935
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,679
it at LSU, and JaMarcus didn't throw the football like,

936
00:41:15,159 --> 00:41:17,960
oh god, oh god, was it wide open? Women?

937
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,159
Speaker 9: It was wide open?

938
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,079
Speaker 4: It was wide over. Coach, you truly are the best man.

939
00:41:22,119 --> 00:41:24,840
You did so much for me, for Matt in our careers.

940
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,480
You played us and put us in positions when a

941
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,000
lot of other people probably wouldn't. So I can't thank

942
00:41:30,039 --> 00:41:32,239
you enough. I enjoyed doing radio with the Over on

943
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,360
serious XM every Tuesday there in football season. That was

944
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:35,880
a lot of fun.

945
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,960
Speaker 7: And I just want to say that I would never

946
00:41:39,039 --> 00:41:40,920
have been an LSU Tiger without Jimbo Fisher.

947
00:41:41,039 --> 00:41:42,519
Speaker 5: Yeah like that, y'all's.

948
00:41:42,199 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 7: Coaching stuff, Like coaches have a huge impact on individual people,

949
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,880
but that whole coaching stuff, the impact you had on

950
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:51,519
Louisiana because you turned a program that was not great

951
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,840
into one of the biggest powerhouses in the country. What

952
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,760
a special staff, special time that was for LSU fans

953
00:41:57,039 --> 00:42:00,639
and the economic the boost that the state and the

954
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,239
pride factor, like you were a part of something big

955
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,159
and you were one of the big, big reasons for that.

956
00:42:06,199 --> 00:42:08,599
And we love you and we thank you, and yeah,

957
00:42:08,639 --> 00:42:10,239
we we just appreciate the time this morning.

958
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:11,320
Speaker 4: Absolutely, Well, what's.

959
00:42:11,159 --> 00:42:11,920
Speaker 9: The same here, guys.

960
00:42:12,119 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 2: Like I said, you guys, I respect you guys as

961
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,159
much as any players I've ever coached.

962
00:42:15,159 --> 00:42:17,119
Speaker 9: And I mean that because I mean what you guys

963
00:42:17,119 --> 00:42:18,840
did and what you went about your business, how good

964
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:19,800
you were. It's mutual here.

965
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 2: And it was a special time when when that thing

966
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,880
flipped and we started winning, were the state Louisiana boomed

967
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,800
off and it was as fun time as I've always

968
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,119
consider myself a Louisian. I always liked the people and

969
00:42:30,159 --> 00:42:32,199
the people there, and it was it was such a

970
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,199
great place, and you guys were a huge part of it.

971
00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,360
And my favorite guys is as good as I've ever coached.

972
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,280
I mean that too, And I know this sound. I

973
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,679
don't mean to get sentimental on all that craziness, but

974
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,360
it was a fun time in your life as you

975
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,519
look back, and were fortunate to have you guys.

976
00:42:44,559 --> 00:42:44,920
Speaker 9: That's for that.

977
00:42:45,199 --> 00:42:47,079
Speaker 5: Thanks for giving us coach ankle is a chance.

978
00:42:47,159 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, we appreciated coaching.

979
00:42:51,639 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 9: Bad ankles.

980
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,199
Speaker 4: All right, coach, have a good morning.

981
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,880
Speaker 9: Coach. You two guys, great to be with you.

982
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,519
Speaker 4: You as well. There he is Jimbo Fisher, our offensive

983
00:42:59,519 --> 00:43:01,880
coordinator when we were here at LSU. Of course, win

984
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:06,280
a national championship at Florida State and let's take a break.

985
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:10,599
But we I mean, the memory on Coach Jima Fisher

986
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:14,400
is just it's I've never I've never been around somebody

987
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,800
that can recall moments like that, So I want to

988
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,400
break some of that down when we come back. It

989
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:22,440

990

off the bench, all right, go to Boudros Electrical dot Com.

991
00:43:27,519 --> 00:43:31,000
That's Boudroxelectrical dot Com. Now, we've been telling you over

992
00:43:31,039 --> 00:43:34,559
the last couple of weeks and months, man, there there

993
00:43:34,639 --> 00:43:37,119
is not a worse time for your power to go

994
00:43:37,199 --> 00:43:39,679
out and for you not to have a backup plan.

995
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,840
The last thing. Look, we've all been outside. The power

996
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:47,599
goes out for whatever reason, and you're sitting there all right,

997
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:49,760
and you and the family are in the hot box,

998
00:43:50,119 --> 00:43:53,079
and you don't have a whole home generator that automatically

999
00:43:53,199 --> 00:43:55,880
kicks on when that power goes out, you are certainly

1000
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,360
going to wish that you have Boudros in the team out. Now,

1001
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,599
when you go to Boudro's Electric dot Com over in

1002
00:44:01,639 --> 00:44:05,119

And I can also promise you it's going to be

1006
00:44:13,079 --> 00:44:16,039
