42
00:01:47,879 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 1: You know from an eligibility standpoint, there's a USC linebacker

43
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,159
that just got his ninth year of eligibility back, sell

44
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,239
them on to leave. Oh no, he's at MONTANAA. So yeah,

45
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,000
he's a former USC linebacker now at montege.

46
00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 4: Uh.

47
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,159
Speaker 3: He's got like five medical red shirt.

48
00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:06,519
Speaker 1: You wonder, it's like, Okay, if this guy is getting eligibility,

49
00:02:06,319 --> 00:02:08,560
there's got to be a former b YU Cougar that

50
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,680
has some eligibility remain that could come back to pro

51
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:11,520
vot if they need him.

52
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,159
Speaker 5: There should be yeah, and there may be. You well,

53
00:02:14,199 --> 00:02:16,719
we'll have to see what happens. But yeah, it's it's crazy.

54
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,599
It's crazy to think that you you you got that

55
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:24,599
that that much time in college football. But yeah, and

56
00:02:24,599 --> 00:02:26,680
and and yet they denied Hinkley rebody, you know, so

57
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,319
the stupid it just makes you wonder, you know, maybe

58
00:02:30,319 --> 00:02:32,800
he knows somebody that that Hinckley didn't know, you know,

59
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,479
up in the in the offices of the n cul

60
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,360
A and and whoever's making those decisions. But yeah, it's

61
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,080
crazy to think that you're you've been with in college

62
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,479
football for the Trevor Lawrence graduated and went into the

63
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:48,840
Graduate High school and was in the class that he

64
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,719
was in going into college.

65
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 4: I did that take you back?

66
00:02:53,599 --> 00:02:57,159
Speaker 3: Not only that. What's crazy is of course impact.

67
00:02:58,199 --> 00:03:01,199
Speaker 1: Uh right, it was, it was, It was it Cursion Beach.

68
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 3: Anyway.

69
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: You know, you have these situations where it's like they're

70
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,719
they're student athletes, but they're not even.

71
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 5: Going to school, right right right they're So it makes

72
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,199
me wonder what are the requirements now, because you know,

73
00:03:14,759 --> 00:03:17,879
I was deemed ineligible at one point going at at

74
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:22,000
Saddleback Junior College because I was missing three credit hours.

75
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,719
Three credit hours I was missing and I already had

76
00:03:24,759 --> 00:03:28,639
my my my associate's degree, everything done, and they deemed

77
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,560
me ineligible based off off three credit hours. So it

78
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,120
makes you wonder what those stipulations are. Like, you're if

79
00:03:35,159 --> 00:03:37,319
you don't have to go to class, you don't have to,

80
00:03:37,919 --> 00:03:40,360
but you don't you have to. Don't you have to

81
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,240
enroll in a certain you'd be a full time student

82
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:43,520
order to play football in college?

83
00:03:43,639 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 4: Yeah?

84
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,919
Speaker 1: Well, I thought because Carson Beck went to Georgia, completed

85
00:03:46,919 --> 00:03:50,000
his undergraduate degree like two years ago, goes to Miami.

86
00:03:50,719 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 3: Uh, he has not gone to class in two years.

87
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: He said that in his press conference leak up to

88
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,719
the National Championship Game, I don't know if you saw those. Yeah,

89
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,280
he says, I haven't even gone to class in the

90
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,159
last two years he enrolled. I have no idea. I

91
00:04:03,199 --> 00:04:06,280
have no idea, but he you know, that's what he's saying.

92
00:04:06,719 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 4: You know. So it's like the wild Wild West.

93
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 5: You do what you want, and as long as everybody

94
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,399
is okay with it and nobody's turning in for something,

95
00:04:16,399 --> 00:04:17,759
you're I guess you can.

96
00:04:17,639 --> 00:04:20,519
Speaker 1: Do like underwater basket weaving. You can just be enrolled,

97
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:23,600
but you're not going to class because they're all electives.

98
00:04:23,199 --> 00:04:25,319
Speaker 5: And it doesn't matter if you fail it, right, as

99
00:04:25,319 --> 00:04:27,120
long as you're enrolled and you paid your tuition.

100
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,959
Speaker 4: We had to have a certain GPA, didn't we.

101
00:04:31,079 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 3: You haven't otherwise, Yeah, the educating and administrative when it

102
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,680
meant something, there was a graduation rate.

103
00:04:38,959 --> 00:04:42,399
Speaker 1: Uh, there was definitely some certain standards, et cetera.

104
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 3: So we gotta have some standards here, right.

105
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,759
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I wish we could have

106
00:04:46,759 --> 00:04:49,240
taken advantage of you get your JUCO eligibility back, I

107
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,759
get my JUA. I was telling you know you guys offline.

108
00:04:52,759 --> 00:04:54,480
I'm like, wait a second, I could have played in

109
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,199
eight and O nine. I could have been the winningest

110
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,360
defensive back in BUA football history. And the NC way

111
00:05:00,399 --> 00:05:03,199
they stole it from me, right, they stole it from me.

112
00:05:03,639 --> 00:05:06,199
I was proud of being a part of the n

113
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,600
C Double A whatever. Not today I am not?

114
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, well today I am.

115
00:05:10,399 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 5: I would have loved to have those years back because

116
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,920
my meeting with coach Chow would have been a whole

117
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,600
different meeting. When he when he realized only had two

118
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,800
to play two, I was I was not on his

119
00:05:21,439 --> 00:05:25,079
top list. If you had three to play two, if

120
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,279
you could read shirt this year, you'd be in a

121
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:27,759
good spot.

122
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,399
Speaker 4: But apparently it didn't work out. My favorite on that one.

123
00:05:30,399 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: But spring balls around the corner though storylines seending get

124
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,600
into spring ball. Would you say, what are you looking at?

125
00:05:35,639 --> 00:05:37,759
What are you evaluating? What are you intrigued by?

126
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 5: So I was able to meet Kyler Casper. Oh yeah, yeah,

127
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,199
he got his car in and we tinted his truck.

128
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,399
You got a new truck, and so I asked him,

129
00:05:46,519 --> 00:05:48,319
you know, he's coming from one of the best programs

130
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:52,800
in college football, coming through Oregon and and uh I.

131
00:05:52,759 --> 00:05:54,639
Speaker 4: Had asked him, what's the difference like when you you

132
00:05:54,759 --> 00:05:55,120
got here?

133
00:05:55,199 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 5: By you the amount of guys that have stayed and

134
00:05:59,079 --> 00:05:59,839
didn't transfrise.

135
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 4: What is that like? He said?

136
00:06:01,759 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 5: You know, the crazy part is we were in the

137
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,480
playoffs and we had twenty guys in the portal already.

138
00:06:06,759 --> 00:06:08,959
Speaker 4: You know, he said, So you come here.

139
00:06:09,199 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 5: And you've got all these guys that could have left,

140
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:12,959
or could have done something else, could have gone to

141
00:06:13,079 --> 00:06:17,319
the NFL, or or even transferred out for more money maybe,

142
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,680
and they all want to stay. He said, he feels

143
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,800
it from the get go. He felt the difference, and

144
00:06:22,879 --> 00:06:24,560
he said, it's something special with the team.

145
00:06:25,079 --> 00:06:26,399
Speaker 4: I tell you what, this guy, though.

146
00:06:28,399 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 5: He's a big body, I think he is an aggressive

147
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000
I talked to him a little bit about his style

148
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:39,279
of play and having some more aggressive wide receivers out

149
00:06:39,319 --> 00:06:41,639
there that are just physical, and I think he's going

150
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,480
to bring that. So it was fun to talk with him.

151
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,560
And I will say though he did show up and

152
00:06:47,879 --> 00:06:50,360
his keychain was from.

153
00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:53,319
Speaker 4: Oregon, I had a real problem with it.

154
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,439
Speaker 5: So I made some phone calls and some text messages

155
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,040
out to the equipment manager. I said, we need to

156
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,160
replace this. Even that lawn attacks and I said, look

157
00:07:02,639 --> 00:07:03,720
a Rod got one too.

158
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 4: This is our guy.

159
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,959
Speaker 5: He needs a new key chain. Somebody needs to step

160
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,079
out and get him a new key.

161
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,079
Speaker 1: Chase the love of all that Holly, and get this

162
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,639
freaking orgon yellow organ.

163
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,839
Speaker 4: Some choice words when I held it up to Yeah,

164
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:17,560
what is.

165
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 3: What the h is this? Get this out of here?

166
00:07:21,519 --> 00:07:21,800
It is.

167
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,519
Speaker 1: Hopefully he's repented, he's he's uh, he's switched it out

168
00:07:26,839 --> 00:07:27,839
because he's like.

169
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 4: A real solid dude.

170
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,279
Speaker 5: I'm excited to see what his Corett lineage.

171
00:07:32,319 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: His dad was a fantastic football player in the National

172
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,160
Football League, played with the Broncos Ed McCaffery there. There

173
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,959
was a day at a kind of a really good

174
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,639
crew there in Denver. A good football player comes from

175
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,360
good stock, so that's gonna be There's a reason why

176
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,240
he was a four star out of high school, and

177
00:07:48,279 --> 00:07:50,120
you wonder it's like, hey, if you would depress him, like, hey,

178
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:54,000
why why weren't you able to maybe get into the rotation?

179
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,160
What limited you?

180
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:55,319
Speaker 4: What?

181
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 3: Why didn't they give you an opportunity?

182
00:07:57,639 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's good questions. Yeah, maybe I should ask it.

183
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, come on, that would have been the right question. Way,

184
00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:06,560
why why why didn't you get any pt?

185
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:07,519
Speaker 3: No he did.

186
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,199
Speaker 1: He played special teams and he got separate receptions but like, obviously,

187
00:08:11,879 --> 00:08:14,920
I'm sure Fesie you want to DEFESTI know about him

188
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,160
in high school and you know he had so many offers,

189
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,279
just couldn't get him. Look, I love his bounce back.

190
00:08:19,319 --> 00:08:21,839
Pooka was a bounce back essentially. He was at Washington,

191
00:08:21,959 --> 00:08:24,800
came into b y U. H Samson was at Utah,

192
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,839
came into b YU. We want Pooka floated into that suv.

193
00:08:28,879 --> 00:08:31,519
You want to make sure Pooka someone's gonna reach out

194
00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:34,360
to Pooka, Like, hey man, you want to be in

195
00:08:34,399 --> 00:08:39,399
the limelight, but not this type of limelight, you know, Yeah, yeah, anyway,

196
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:44,399
but at any rate, we want these guys and hopefully

197
00:08:44,399 --> 00:08:47,000
we can highlight them and hopefully they ball out. Yeah,

198
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,519
the wide receiver when we're still trying to figure out

199
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,039
he's his PK the wide receiver one very well could be.

200
00:08:53,399 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 3: But who's who's going to be the top three? Who's

201
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,399
going to be the top four? Right now?

202
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,879
Speaker 1: Mike Guy Zach Erickson, who we chatted with early in

203
00:08:59,879 --> 00:09:02,559
the show. He says, Reggie's going to be in the

204
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:02,879
top three.

205
00:09:02,919 --> 00:09:05,919
Speaker 5: Reggie Fish Connect, Reggie the Baller. Yeah, I love Zach.

206
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,600
That's a good deal. I ended up wakesurfing with that dude.

207
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 3: Hears back, and oh yeah, Zach, we love that. Yeah

208
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,200
he's my teammate.

209
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, great, great guy, runs a great program. Yes, right,

210
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,679
I mean amazing. But yeah, I think Reggie's gonna do

211
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,960
well too. And Reggie's got size, you know, and once

212
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,120
they started getting him in the game, you know, I

213
00:09:23,159 --> 00:09:24,600
think he's going to do well.

214
00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

215
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,159
Speaker 5: It's it's gonna be fun to just see these guys

216
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,320
now where it's a little more open. Chase is gone there,

217
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,799
there's some more competitive juice going in to see who's

218
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,840
really going to take those spots, and it is kind

219
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,240
of open the two, three and four.

220
00:09:38,519 --> 00:09:40,759
Speaker 4: It's like who who who is gonna be there?

221
00:09:40,759 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 5: There's probably six guys that have an opportunity to get

222
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:45,799
that rotation, so let's see who can do it.

223
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:47,039
Speaker 4: You know, I'm interested to see.

224
00:09:47,159 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 5: Also, as a Rod was talking a little bit about

225
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:51,679
the running back kid out of Lee High.

226
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's been impressing in the off season.

227
00:09:54,519 --> 00:09:59,279
Speaker 5: Right And and usually we've we've known and as I've

228
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,080
known a Rod for as long as they have.

229
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 4: He he's not quick to put names out there.

230
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,879
Speaker 6: No, he's not not quick to get very hesitant yeah,

231
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,679
and so he did it with Bear last year, right,

232
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,960
And I mean from almost from the get go, this

233
00:10:13,039 --> 00:10:15,759
guy's you know, the intelligent and and and he backed

234
00:10:15,759 --> 00:10:16,440
it hundred percent.

235
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 4: Bear backed it up as well.

236
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 5: So if he's already talking like that, this this could

237
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,720
be you know, a one two three punch with SIONI

238
00:10:23,799 --> 00:10:26,440
and and LJU and it could be a lot of

239
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:27,080
fun to watch.

240
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 1: So I'll give you some insight in from the off

241
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,919
season training. This may intrigue you. Everyone wants to know

242
00:10:33,919 --> 00:10:35,799
who's the fast who are the fastest guys.

243
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 3: On the team? Right, sure, everyone wants to know, Hey,

244
00:10:38,519 --> 00:10:39,440
who's the fastest guys?

245
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,639
Speaker 1: So I got I got your top ten here at

246
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,279
least their top end speed. I won't tell you what

247
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,080
the the mphs are, but like this is the this

248
00:10:47,159 --> 00:10:48,600
is the fastest guy. Who do you think the fastest

249
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,559
guy in the team is? Who do you think the

250
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:52,600
fastest guy in the team is?

251
00:10:53,039 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 5: It would either be Parker or or well, I don't

252
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,320
know who is at top speed.

253
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,159
Speaker 1: Top top top end speed. Who's got the fast this

254
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,320
top end speed? Cody, Cody's up there. Cody's up He's fast,

255
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,919
but he's also remember he got a little remember Cody

256
00:11:06,919 --> 00:11:08,240
got a little bit deemed up, which.

257
00:11:08,039 --> 00:11:09,879
Speaker 4: Is a different than a forty, right, because.

258
00:11:09,639 --> 00:11:11,919
Speaker 1: You're yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is like, this is

259
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,200
like top end speed.

260
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,799
Speaker 3: The fastest, right fast.

261
00:11:15,519 --> 00:11:17,279
Speaker 4: Got the longest stride, you know what I mean?

262
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 3: And uh, and so this is the entire team.

263
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,039
Speaker 1: This is the entire team, all right, got So, fastest

264
00:11:26,039 --> 00:11:29,480
guy on the team is Evan Johnson. Okay, Evan, Yeah,

265
00:11:30,159 --> 00:11:32,679
second fastest. I mean, look, and this is you know,

266
00:11:33,639 --> 00:11:35,360
like I said, fastest is like is it in the

267
00:11:35,399 --> 00:11:38,159
twenties and the forties? This is like top end speed.

268
00:11:38,799 --> 00:11:42,200
Kevin Doe, the project out of the East East uh

269
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,279
East High School. Will played basketball and was a converted

270
00:11:45,279 --> 00:11:49,000
football player. He's been a defensive back. Yeah and uh

271
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,720
and he's seen playing time as a special player.

272
00:11:51,919 --> 00:11:53,919
Speaker 4: He didn't play in high school. Is that the story?

273
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 3: He didn't really play. I think he played one year

274
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:57,720
of high school football.

275
00:11:57,759 --> 00:12:00,519
Speaker 1: This was a This was a guy that FESSI I

276
00:12:00,519 --> 00:12:03,960
think evaluated and brought him in and then I think

277
00:12:04,039 --> 00:12:06,320
Jay Hill signed off on it. And obviously he's been

278
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,120
a defensive back and he's played a little bit.

279
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 4: Right.

280
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:14,639
Speaker 1: Number three, my guy Joe Douglas. Now not many people

281
00:12:14,639 --> 00:12:20,279
know about Joe Tillis standby Park area, right, So he

282
00:12:20,399 --> 00:12:23,120
was running he played high school football. But whose tight

283
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,080
ends d end right really linear kid ends up coming

284
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,080
off of his mission and he's he's running sprints and

285
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,799
maybe going to potentially do the Cathloic.

286
00:12:33,919 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a model there.

287
00:12:35,159 --> 00:12:36,919
Speaker 4: Like he's like, keep your shirt on a round out

288
00:12:37,759 --> 00:12:38,399
the ladies.

289
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,879
Speaker 1: The ladies love this guy. I tell Job I stay

290
00:12:43,879 --> 00:12:46,000
away from the ladies for now, Like, let's make sure

291
00:12:46,039 --> 00:12:49,399
you get into the rotation, get into specialty. Anyway, So

292
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,840
Joe third fastest, but he you know, he's playing playing safety,

293
00:12:52,919 --> 00:12:55,080
made the team. He was he was at Utah State

294
00:12:55,159 --> 00:12:58,120
last year running track, tried out, made it as a

295
00:12:58,159 --> 00:13:01,679
walk on, and he's been playing free safe. You know,

296
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,360
still has a ways to go, but he's he's super

297
00:13:04,399 --> 00:13:06,879
fast and explosively probably pound for pound. Also the strongest guy.

298
00:13:06,919 --> 00:13:11,679
He's like, he's like Max Tuley, you know maxx is similar.

299
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:12,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, like Max.

300
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,799
Speaker 1: They did move Max to free safety for a spring

301
00:13:15,879 --> 00:13:18,799
ball because they're like, maybe we could use this speed.

302
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,120
I don't know if you remember the u USF game

303
00:13:22,039 --> 00:13:25,159
at USF where Max Tuley was like tracking down from

304
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,440
the opposite side of the field anyway. He's kind of

305
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:33,879
like Max Parker Kingston number four, Jordan Chris cornerback number five,

306
00:13:34,759 --> 00:13:39,000
Tommy Prass's number six, Crew Clark Shotton, Crew Clark, the

307
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:43,919
Idaho transfer at number seven, Canada Brees eight, Logan Payne nine,

308
00:13:44,039 --> 00:13:49,840
Raider de Moony ten, Kyler Casper eleven, will Zundell twelve,

309
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:54,240
and then Trey Alexander thirteen. Joe Vessa's right there, Jared

310
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,039
esplind wide receivers. There follow Telsa to Wilid top fifteen.

311
00:13:57,399 --> 00:13:57,919
Speaker 4: So those are you.

312
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: That's like your top fifteen top end speed guy. Sure,

313
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,399
I thought that was interesting. Anything stand out to you?

314
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:07,000
I think surprised you.

315
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,799
Speaker 4: I don't know if it surprised me. I think I

316
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,159
think top end speed is one thing. It's not a

317
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,639
football metric really, you know what I mean?

318
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,919
Speaker 5: Like it there's there's so many guys that are you know,

319
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,279
one of those guys that maybe I clocked a four,

320
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,879
five nine one, so I could say I was a

321
00:14:21,879 --> 00:14:24,279
four or five guy. But but in reality, you know,

322
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,679
it was all about getting in the space where you

323
00:14:27,799 --> 00:14:29,840
need to be and it's not about full speed all

324
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:30,600
the time, you know.

325
00:14:30,679 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 4: And and so I think that.

326
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,519
Speaker 5: It's it's great to have some just some lightning speed guys,

327
00:14:35,799 --> 00:14:40,200
but really for me and football, it's the first three steps, right,

328
00:14:40,279 --> 00:14:44,000
So I tell everybody, there's one dude I played football

329
00:14:44,039 --> 00:14:47,600
with that had that zero to one hundred and three steps.

330
00:14:47,799 --> 00:14:51,519
It was almost two steps, Ronnie Jenkins's there was nobody.

331
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,919
I mean that guy saw a hole, would cut in

332
00:14:55,039 --> 00:14:58,240
two steps. Yeah, he's full speed and at one point

333
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,399
he was clocked at one A four to one six

334
00:15:00,919 --> 00:15:04,200
U at b YU. I mean, just just insane. Great dude,

335
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,120
Love Ronnie, but yeah, fastest guy I ever played with.

336
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 3: Then the next tier of guys that could get you excited.

337
00:15:09,799 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: Trey Roberts wide receiver obviously, Chase Roberts, brother Fuller shirts punter,

338
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,000
Holy cow, Kato Lawave's right there.

339
00:15:17,159 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 3: LG.

340
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: Morten's right there, Charles Miska running backs there, and then

341
00:15:19,759 --> 00:15:23,240
Walker Lions and Roger Saliapaga.

342
00:15:22,879 --> 00:15:24,639
Speaker 4: His shirts to the back.

343
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,399
Speaker 3: Yeah he's the back of Butcher, the one that.

344
00:15:28,519 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 4: Dropped the ball.

345
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 3: Why why come on?

346
00:15:30,559 --> 00:15:33,039
Speaker 4: Heye bring that up?

347
00:15:33,679 --> 00:15:35,559
Speaker 3: Had he had one?

348
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,519
Speaker 4: The best thing about that? I don't know if I

349
00:15:38,559 --> 00:15:39,000
told you.

350
00:15:39,399 --> 00:15:42,039
Speaker 1: By the way, Jared Bledsoe, former punter at Ricks yeah,

351
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,480
so he do it all wide receiver and punter.

352
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,759
Speaker 5: So after that that game, we took our players to

353
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,360
the to the practice one day and as soon as

354
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,039
we walked in the field, guess who I saw in

355
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:52,960
the jugs machine.

356
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 4: Punter was taking jugs balls just like. I don't think

357
00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:58,720
it was that.

358
00:15:58,799 --> 00:15:59,559
Speaker 3: He dropped it.

359
00:15:59,639 --> 00:16:02,399
Speaker 1: He like just he he well, he dropped it in

360
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,039
front of himself, but he didn't swing his leg.

361
00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 5: It was it wasn't It didn't look like he fielded it.

362
00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:11,200
It was where that ball was about to be kicked.

363
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,960
It went out of his hands before he was kind

364
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,559
of just it was. It was really odd.

365
00:16:17,879 --> 00:16:19,639
Speaker 4: But he's fast, so yeah, he's fast.

366
00:16:19,679 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 3: It sounds like, hey, I'm down with just let's go

367
00:16:22,919 --> 00:16:27,639
hey Justin Ena, let's dial it in. Uh, let's let's

368
00:16:27,679 --> 00:16:29,320
go Justin. I mean K Pop has done a really

369
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:30,600
good job with some of his face.

370
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,639
Speaker 1: I know there was a controversial one this last year

371
00:16:34,519 --> 00:16:36,720
versus Tech though, and like we're like we can't even

372
00:16:36,799 --> 00:16:38,399
move the damn ball anymore.

373
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,399
Speaker 5: And you relying on your Australian punch to throw it.

374
00:16:41,039 --> 00:16:44,039
Come on, you know, there's yeah, not gonna happen.

375
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: Not not very good interest in the short side of

376
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,279
the field anyway, they were trying to get something. Yeah, yeah,

377
00:16:49,279 --> 00:16:50,799
you know, Bob, I was hoping they pull out the

378
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:55,000
old uh you know, the Tyler Baddie Tyler baddy Uh

379
00:16:55,159 --> 00:16:58,240
you know delay release, you know, with the personal protector.

380
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,480
Just run them right up the middle. See if you

381
00:17:00,519 --> 00:17:03,720
can get somebody wide open up the middle. Anyway, But

382
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,759
you know, spring balls around the corner. Very excited about it,

383
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,079
and I can't wait to see what cam Klani looks

384
00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:10,400
like in twenty and sight is one of the things

385
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:15,200
that was interesting. Brady Papinga brought this up, so Brady

386
00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:21,720
said that he's intrigued to see how they operate. Spring

387
00:17:21,799 --> 00:17:24,160
Ball will be a traditional competitive environment or will be

388
00:17:24,279 --> 00:17:27,079
like an OTA NFL type of thing, where like there's

389
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:28,920
not much competition because you don't want to lose guys.

390
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,319
There's not much competition because you don't want to necessarily

391
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,839
get guys injured. It becomes a traditional OTA you know

392
00:17:35,079 --> 00:17:38,359
very much thud, very much speed work, very much like

393
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,680
technique work. And then you get into fall camp because

394
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,319
they had a they had some attrition last spring along

395
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,720
their defensive line because they went after it a little bit.

396
00:17:47,799 --> 00:17:50,799
They were it was kind of like a refining fire. Uh,

397
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,759
and some guys left after spring ball anyway.

398
00:17:53,839 --> 00:17:56,599
Speaker 4: But I think they have to be competitive unless it's

399
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:57,000
a group.

400
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,559
Speaker 5: If you know all your starters already, you know who's

401
00:17:59,599 --> 00:18:01,799
already going to be going, then I see the point

402
00:18:01,839 --> 00:18:02,279
in doing that.

403
00:18:02,519 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 4: And maybe some groups do that more than others.

404
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying that that's what they're gonna do.

405
00:18:07,799 --> 00:18:09,160
Is is he he brought it up. I was like, Oh,

406
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:09,759
that's intriguing.

407
00:18:09,839 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 1: Is he going to be more of an NFL style

408
00:18:12,079 --> 00:18:15,720
or will it be a traditional college competitive style?

409
00:18:15,839 --> 00:18:16,039
Speaker 4: Yeah.

410
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 5: I think it needs to be competitive for a lot

411
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,759
of the position groups in order to really show who's

412
00:18:21,759 --> 00:18:22,480
gonna stand out.

413
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, but yeah, all.
