Speaker 1: It is showtime. A very pleasant, good evening, everybody. Greetings
Speaker 1: from the original Montgomery and home of the world's Greatest
Speaker 1: Ribs and the Scott Saderfield Radio Show. I'm Dan Hord.
Speaker 1: Along with the coach. Jim Kelly is not here tonight.
Speaker 1: I want to take a moment talk about my friend
Speaker 1: Jim Kelly. I'm a crier, so bear with me. Jim
Speaker 1: announced last week that he's going to step away from
Speaker 1: the mic for the rest of this season. As many
Speaker 1: of you know, Jim has been battling cancer. We will
Speaker 1: miss him. I know you will too. To know Jim
Speaker 1: Kelly is to love Jim Kelly. The name Jim Kelly
Speaker 1: is synonymous with University of Cincinnati Athletics. His dad, Jim Senior,
Speaker 1: started playing for the Bearcats in nineteen forty seven. Between
Speaker 1: his dad and Jim Junior, there has been a Jim
Speaker 1: Kelly basically associated with UC Athletics for seventy eight years.
Speaker 1: No family has mean more.
Speaker 2: So Jim.
Speaker 1: We love you, We wish you were here, and we
Speaker 1: know you're here in spirit. We know how much you
Speaker 1: enjoyed the game last Saturday, and our thoughts and prayers
Speaker 1: are with you and your family. All right, thank you
Speaker 1: appreciate that. Let's talk about the game. What a game
Speaker 1: it was, Cincinnati beating Iowa State last week, ranked fourteenth
Speaker 1: in the country, undefeated going into the game. Coach, for
Speaker 1: the first twenty nine minutes and fifty eight seconds of
Speaker 1: that game, I don't know that you could have played
Speaker 1: better thirty one to seven. It should have been thirty
Speaker 1: one to seven at the half if not for a
Speaker 1: tickie tak call and an interception by Matthew McDoom. Feel
Speaker 1: free to boo. I said it, Coach didn't. But in
Speaker 1: any case, the team I saw in the first twenty
Speaker 1: eight minutes and fifty eight seconds can go to toe
Speaker 1: to toe with anybody in the country.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was really proud of our guys the way they
Speaker 4: came out, you know, and that just speaks to how
Speaker 4: prepared they were throughout the week and and really ready
Speaker 4: to play. And I thought you could sense it on
Speaker 4: Saturday morning at our pregame meal, you know, how they man,
Speaker 4: they were all locked in. You know, you could see
Speaker 4: it on their faces, how hungry and eager they were
Speaker 4: ready to get to the game. And then you know,
Speaker 4: right from the start we went out and made some
Speaker 4: plays offensively, and you know, the guys just went right
Speaker 4: down the field and scored, and you know, you know,
Speaker 4: it just felt like it was on repeat. You know,
Speaker 4: every time we got the ball back, you go down
Speaker 4: and you score again. The players were hitting, the guys
Speaker 4: were executing, and you look up and you know, you
Speaker 4: got thirty one points on the board, you know, in
Speaker 4: the first half, which is amazing. You know, I think
Speaker 4: Alloa State's a really good team, really good defense, and
Speaker 4: they have been for years and years and years, and
Speaker 4: for us to be able to go out and play
Speaker 4: that way, I'm certainly a great start of the game
Speaker 4: and you know, ultimately was enough quite honestly to win it.
Speaker 4: And what we did in the first half, but you know,
Speaker 4: proud of that, and obviously some things we had to
Speaker 4: get need to get better in the second half, but still,
Speaker 4: you know, it was a great win for us.
Speaker 1: We have two tremendous guests that are going to want
Speaker 1: to at the bottom of the hour, quarterback Brendan Soresby,
Speaker 1: running back Tywie Walker. Let's yeah, that's right. Let's start
Speaker 1: with Tawee. Your two running backs, Evan pryor And and
Speaker 1: Tywee combined for two hundred rushing yards in the game.
Speaker 1: But Tywee created a meme that people are going to
Speaker 1: be seeing over and over again. Poor number fourteen for
Speaker 1: Iowa State. Uh looked like he got hit by a
Speaker 1: runaway freight train.
Speaker 3: It did it? Did you know?
Speaker 4: I would say that was the hit of the day,
Speaker 4: but I think Simon's hit hit on the quarterback may
Speaker 4: have been even harder. Yeah, than that one. But Tywee
Speaker 4: was incredible. I thought it was his best game since
Speaker 4: he's been here, you know. I thought Evan Pray played
Speaker 4: outstanding as well. They were a great one two punch,
Speaker 4: you know, they were you know, you get one that
Speaker 4: they're out there running, they're running over people. He comes
Speaker 4: to get some water and then Pryor comes in and
Speaker 4: takes it, takes it to the house. I mean, so
Speaker 4: it's a great one to two punch and these guys up.
Speaker 4: You know, Tywee is loaded a ground extremely wide and
Speaker 4: ran hard and you know, wearing with the shoulders you know,
Speaker 4: down and was running through guys and it just didn't
Speaker 4: happen one time.
Speaker 3: I mean it happened over and over and over.
Speaker 4: He was running hard, he was regressive and trying to
Speaker 4: get yards you know, one of the great plays I
Speaker 4: thought in the day was winning. I think, you know,
Speaker 4: he tried to truck somebody, he didn't go down, he
Speaker 4: kept running, and then here comes.
Speaker 3: The whole offense.
Speaker 4: I mean, I think we had eleven guys other than well,
Speaker 4: ten guys other than the Sowersby that were in that
Speaker 4: pile pushing it. I think he ended up get seventeen
Speaker 4: or eighteen yards on that run, and that just kind
Speaker 4: of set the tone for the day and you know,
Speaker 4: pretty much said hey, we're here and we're gonna be
Speaker 4: playing this way all day long, you know.
Speaker 3: But yeah, there was a great one two punch.
Speaker 4: I love watching them guys play, and you know, that's
Speaker 4: what we expect out of those guys.
Speaker 1: Your offense is number two in the country and yards
Speaker 1: per play you average eight point zero five yards every
Speaker 1: time you snap the ball. You're number two in the
Speaker 1: country and yards per rush six point five eight yards
Speaker 1: every time you run the ball, and that says that
Speaker 1: your offensive line is playing great. Again. They were named
Speaker 1: the Big East offensive line a Big twelve excuse me,
Speaker 1: Big twelve offensive end of the week. Third time that's
Speaker 1: happened in five games. That's incredible.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's hard to do.
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, as many teams as we have
Speaker 4: that play in this league, and there's a lot of
Speaker 4: teams in our league that are putting up great you know,
Speaker 4: points and yardage. I'm doing some really good things you know,
Speaker 4: would be recognized obviously. That's you know, a credit to
Speaker 4: the guys up front. Coach Cardwell and you know, Gavin,
Speaker 4: we had some of those guys that were in here
Speaker 4: last week talking and you know, man, but they're just
Speaker 4: they're playing on their mission now.
Speaker 3: A couple of stars just walked in right there.
Speaker 4: Uh they deserve it though, no doubt. But yeah, really
Speaker 4: proud of the boys up front because I mean, these
Speaker 4: two guys would be the first to tell you. I mean,
Speaker 4: they can't do what they need to do without the
Speaker 4: protection and the run blocking of the guys. And they
Speaker 4: take so much pride in playing physical. But not only
Speaker 4: did they open a lot of holes running the ball,
Speaker 4: but you know, he didn't get sacked again this this game.
Speaker 4: You know, we've still given up one sack and five
Speaker 4: you know which is I mean, I don't know it's
Speaker 4: one or two in the time for first half or
Speaker 4: first in the country. And uh, you know, that's a
Speaker 4: lot about the boys up front.
Speaker 1: I'm just glad that we walked to his table without
Speaker 1: knocking anybody.
Speaker 4: You guys are lucky that we're sitting the right in
Speaker 4: that little aisle right there, man, because he runs over
Speaker 4: our guys and there, guys, you know, he's just running.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about special teams. It's always the part of
Speaker 1: the team that gets the least amount of attention. But
Speaker 1: in last week's game two long kickoff returns. He made
Speaker 1: all of your kicks. Stephen Russknack is thirty for thirty.
Speaker 1: It's an ESPN show. He's made all thirty of his
Speaker 1: pats and his field goals. You punted down to the
Speaker 1: one yard line when it was still a tight game.
Speaker 1: I mean pretty much everything you could do in that
Speaker 1: phase you did extremely well.
Speaker 4: We did We covered well too, you know, and Stephen
Speaker 4: kicked off well. You know, yeah, that was a great
Speaker 4: play by Fletch there to have to put that ball
Speaker 4: down the one yard line. And obviously, you know, anytime
Speaker 4: that you get a ball at the minus one like that,
Speaker 4: there's not a whole lot you can do that. I
Speaker 4: think they ran quarterback sneak ran up the middle Basically
Speaker 4: they're saying we're gonna punt, you know, and then we
Speaker 4: get the ball back in great field position. You know,
Speaker 4: that was it takes again, it takes all three phases.
Speaker 4: We've talked about this. The margin you know, to win
Speaker 4: the big twelve is so small, so you've got to
Speaker 4: find ways to get to generate yards.
Speaker 3: We won the field position battle no question.
Speaker 4: You know, you mentioned the two kickoff returns that were outstanding,
Speaker 4: Logan Wilson, both of those and the guys blocked really
Speaker 4: nicely up front. You know, they tried to kick off
Speaker 4: and wed we popped a big return on them, and
Speaker 4: we knew and when that happens, they end up doing
Speaker 4: a skykick meeting. They just bloop it up high hoping
Speaker 4: you're a fair catch it. Just take the ball in
Speaker 4: the twenty five yard line. Coach Pascal and his guys,
Speaker 4: you know, came up with a scheme to get back
Speaker 4: to the field. We kind of invited them over here
Speaker 4: to where we are and we tend them and then
Speaker 4: that's the big return that we got back to the field.
Speaker 4: You know, got it all across the midfield. So that
Speaker 4: was a great scheme by them. Try to steal some yards,
Speaker 4: but they playing at a high level right now. We
Speaker 4: got to continue to play that way in the special
Speaker 4: teams because it's obviously helping us win games.
Speaker 1: So you face UCF at Nippert Stadium this Saturday at noon.
Speaker 1: It's a team that's been going through quarterbacks, partly due
Speaker 1: to injury. Their starter last week, Tavian Jackson, who played
Speaker 1: with Brendan Soarsby at Indiana, suffered an upper body injury.
Speaker 1: His arm was in a sling in the second half
Speaker 1: of that game. The guy that started the season opener
Speaker 1: for them came back to relieve him last week, so
Speaker 1: it seems like he's okay to play this week. The
Speaker 1: other quarterback that's played, Ja Curry Brown, has an ac
Speaker 1: joint spring, so not quite sure about his status. That
Speaker 1: happened a couple of weeks ago, but there is a
Speaker 1: little bit of an unknown there for the opposing quarterback
Speaker 1: this week.
Speaker 4: It is like it was last year as well, and
Speaker 4: if you recall, we went down to Central Florida and
Speaker 4: we didn't really know who was going to start that game.
Speaker 3: They ended up starting a true freshman.
Speaker 4: Last time we went down there, Ja Corey Brown ended
Speaker 4: up coming in the game and really finished the game
Speaker 4: out and played well and played well. Yeah, he's a
Speaker 4: good player. He's a big kid. He can run, you know.
Speaker 4: And really, you know, fourteen, the kid that finished the
Speaker 4: game this past week, he can run as well. And
Speaker 4: I think he's played at Marshall, played at FAU, Jacorey
Speaker 4: Brown played at the University of Miami.
Speaker 3: I mean, so these guys have played, They've got some experience.
Speaker 4: All three of the guys have good size, and they
Speaker 4: all can run. So therefore you got to, you know,
Speaker 4: you got to know where they're at if they're gonna,
Speaker 4: you know, have any of these Q runs. And then
Speaker 4: they have some fastbacks and me two running backs that
Speaker 4: can really go, you know, And so it's gonna be
Speaker 4: imperative that we can you know, be around the box
Speaker 4: to be able to stop that run. That's the strength
Speaker 4: of our offense, you know, and obviously stay on top
Speaker 4: of any kind of passes that they may try to
Speaker 4: throw on us, you know.
Speaker 3: But but it'll be a challenge.
Speaker 4: I told our guys today, I think this is the
Speaker 4: fastest team that we've played this year.
Speaker 3: And I'm saying overall, you know, when you think.
Speaker 4: About all three phases, their speed everywhere these you know,
Speaker 4: you think about a Florida team a lot of there's
Speaker 4: a lot of speed running around there in the high
Speaker 4: school ranks, and they have a lot of that. They
Speaker 4: have a lot of talent guys that can run, you know,
Speaker 4: So we certainly have a you know, we have to
Speaker 4: have a great week of practice here and to go
Speaker 4: out and play a really, really good game.
Speaker 1: At Cincinnati versus you ce F this Saturday at noon
Speaker 1: at Nippert Stadium. The Bearcats just outside of the top
Speaker 1: twenty five. They could pop in if they're able to
Speaker 1: pull off another win on Saturday. We're gonna take a
Speaker 1: time out when we come back questions from the audience.
Speaker 1: We have a tremendous crowd of Bearcat fans with us tonight.
Speaker 1: We're live at the original Montgomery In home of the
Speaker 1: world's Greatest Ribs on seven hundred WLW first and ten
Speaker 1: from the Iowa State thirty. They give it to Pror.
Speaker 1: A huge hole opens up.
Speaker 5: He's pretty for the end Towne touchdown. Bearcats has Cincinnati
Speaker 5: scores on a thirty yard.
Speaker 1: Sprint by Evan Pryor. That was the Bearcats first touchdown
Speaker 1: on Saturday and the win over Iowa State I asked
Speaker 1: Evan Cryer earlier today if he was touched on that
Speaker 1: thirty thirty yard touchdown run. His exact response was, I
Speaker 1: was grazed. So that's how good the offensive line was
Speaker 1: last week. All right, we're gonna open it up to
Speaker 1: some questions from the audience. Our man, Zach Stipe, has
Speaker 1: the wireless mic in his hands. So if you have
Speaker 1: a question for coach Saderfield, raise your hand, and Zach
Speaker 1: we'll find you.
Speaker 3: We got one back here. What's your name, sir? This
Speaker 3: is Scary Schlegel coach.
Speaker 6: If I remember correctly, last week, you said you're gonna
Speaker 6: have a lot of recruits.
Speaker 3: Yeah, in for this game.
Speaker 2: Did it pay any dividends? Did you gaint good?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Well, I mean we had we had six committed guys
Speaker 4: that were here, and so they were they were when
Speaker 4: we got finished playing, you know, everybody's on the field
Speaker 4: and I go into the locker room. There there's the
Speaker 4: sixth Summer in the locker room celebrating, which was awesome.
Speaker 3: They're, you know, hanging out with our guys and so.
Speaker 4: And then on top of that, yeah, we had a
Speaker 4: bunch of uh twenty twenty seven recruits.
Speaker 3: Some twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 4: You know, some young guys are in high school right now,
Speaker 4: so it made a huge impression on them, and we
Speaker 4: got some great feedback.
Speaker 3: They loved it.
Speaker 4: They loved the atmosphere, the crowd, you know, really just
Speaker 4: the whole at you know.
Speaker 3: The whole thing.
Speaker 4: I mean, as far as you know the game and
Speaker 4: how our guys played, and because all these guys, you know,
Speaker 4: they visualized themselves playing in that uniform, watching our guys
Speaker 4: play and in front of that crowd.
Speaker 3: And uh man, they were very, very excited.
Speaker 4: So yeah, hopefully it we'll pay dividends with some of
Speaker 4: these younger guys in the future, and we're staying on
Speaker 4: top of them.
Speaker 1: Couldn't have been much better, I would. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: this atmosphere, the students storm the field. Yeah, good stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right? Is Wayne next?
Speaker 2: Wayne is next? All right?
Speaker 3: Hi, coach.
Speaker 7: My question is regarding the illegal receiver downfield situation. Clearly
Speaker 7: Gerhart was stumbling trying to you know, yeah, that wasn't
Speaker 7: the thing, but but Terran was.
Speaker 3: He was down down there.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So my question is.
Speaker 7: How are the O linemen taught and coached on situations
Speaker 7: like that? Is it a count situation? Are they told
Speaker 7: to count, you know, two, three, four, five or something.
Speaker 7: Does it depend on what play is called? Are there
Speaker 7: different variables?
Speaker 3: There is, you know.
Speaker 4: And anytime you're running plays that have a pass associated
Speaker 4: with they run.
Speaker 3: That's the r p O run pass option.
Speaker 4: We if it's it's gonna be a quick pass, we
Speaker 4: don't say anything to the guys up front, so we anticipate.
Speaker 3: Them coming off the ball.
Speaker 4: They'll allow you three yards sometimes three and a half
Speaker 4: right in that range down the field, and they won't
Speaker 4: call anything. The two plays they got called were plays
Speaker 4: that were gonna be throwing the ball down the field.
Speaker 4: So we make a heavy call, which means now you
Speaker 4: can't go downfield, so you need to take just a
Speaker 4: few steps and then stop. Well, Gavin went to block
Speaker 4: his guy and the guy actually swam his over top
Speaker 4: of him, and then he started stumbling. He ends up
Speaker 4: going about four or five yards accidentally. And the guy
Speaker 4: had already warn me. He say, coach, you're getting close.
Speaker 4: You're getting close throughout the day, and I was like,
Speaker 4: all right, So I went and told the guys and
Speaker 4: so I look up and Gavin's down the field, and
Speaker 4: Gavin's like, man, you know, I tried to hit him,
Speaker 4: but I failed, you know, basically fell down. So you know,
Speaker 4: that was we got about twenty five yards on that play.
Speaker 4: The other one, you know, tarn was just he just
Speaker 4: messed up, like he just messed up. That was a
Speaker 4: play we had schemed up throughout the week. We knew
Speaker 4: the linebackers were to be really soft, and so they
Speaker 4: were like seven yards deep, you know, tearing only on
Speaker 4: that run play. If it was a run, He's got
Speaker 4: to go work up to that backer. He just kind
Speaker 4: of he said, Coach, I thought he was actually running
Speaker 4: the ball.
Speaker 2: I didn't, you know.
Speaker 3: I was like, no, we were gonna throw that one,
Speaker 3: you know. And of course in that play that was
Speaker 3: the wind.
Speaker 4: The safety in the corner came up and Brendan hit
Speaker 4: the down the sideline for fifty two yards, and I
Speaker 4: was we were all celebrating, and then we looked back
Speaker 4: and see that penalty.
Speaker 3: I was like, what happened? And he went down the field.
Speaker 3: So that was unfortunate.
Speaker 4: But we do make a call if we know it's
Speaker 4: going to be a ball down the field or where
Speaker 4: they have to just sit right there to the line
Speaker 4: of scrimmage.
Speaker 1: Excellent question.
Speaker 2: Question.
Speaker 1: I just learned something there that was great, Brian.
Speaker 8: Coach that that sequence where all the offensive penalties and
Speaker 8: you end up with forty thousand referees disagree.
Speaker 1: Have you seen a sequence like that? It was the
Speaker 1: week before. Everybody other than that than that, never never.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think there were seven straight eight penalties now
Speaker 4: and not all on the offense, but there was there
Speaker 4: was two special teams in there that was you know,
Speaker 4: the offense had their share. You know, that was a
Speaker 4: bad sequence. I wish they would just let the guys
Speaker 4: play a little bit, you know, and and not throw
Speaker 4: so many penalties. But you know, in one of the
Speaker 4: things that we went on Sunday and I showed the guys,
Speaker 4: I probably I think six or seven penalties that we
Speaker 4: had in that game, and they were legit penalties, you know,
Speaker 4: And I was like, Okay, you guys can complain and say, hey,
Speaker 4: they're out to get you and this and that, and
Speaker 4: I was like, but here's the legit penalties that you
Speaker 4: guys had, and we got to clean this up, like
Speaker 4: we have to be more disciplined. We had I think
Speaker 4: we had four on deep, maybe four or five on defense.
Speaker 4: You know, Logan Wilson was grabbed the face mask over there,
Speaker 4: that's a penalty.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 3: He picked the guy up and slammed him.
Speaker 4: I thought that was a little questionable, but but they're
Speaker 4: gonna call that if you slam a guy, you know, Simons,
Speaker 4: you know that's tough and he's playing hard. The quarterback
Speaker 4: spun he's right in front of him and get the
Speaker 4: targeting penalty, you know, but they're gonna call that, like
Speaker 4: you know, we see it each and every week.
Speaker 3: So I just told we got to be more disciplined.
Speaker 4: We got to clean up some of that stuff because
Speaker 4: you know, when we get to games where there really
Speaker 4: really tight that that will cost you ball game.
Speaker 3: So it's a learning thing for us.
Speaker 1: And the interception, Yeah, that that wasn't ability.
Speaker 2: That was that was That was a bad call.
Speaker 3: Definitely not a fenlity pillus definitely coach.
Speaker 9: After the Kansas game, pretty much the proverbial encyclo Apedia
Speaker 9: Britannica could have been sent to the Big Twelve officiating
Speaker 9: questioning some of those calls because some of those, as
Speaker 9: we kind of think, were pretty egregious. Even this week.
Speaker 9: Another volume could have become as a supplement with some
Speaker 9: of those calls. I think the one that really just
Speaker 9: if the ref had a long white cane and dark glasses,
Speaker 9: I'm pretty sure that that one would be a questionable
Speaker 9: one because I know I personally watched that several times
Speaker 9: and said, I'm not saying it. So how do you
Speaker 9: help the guys get past some of these what a
Speaker 9: hack kind of calls?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, and that's what we tell us part
Speaker 4: of our meeting on Sunday when I showed them, you know,
Speaker 4: some of the calls that were legit. As you know,
Speaker 4: we can't worry about some of these things, like it's
Speaker 4: out of our control. And and I know it's human nature,
Speaker 4: you know, to complain about it. And I told them,
Speaker 4: I said, they let our fans complain, you know, they
Speaker 4: all those reps hurt our fans. I'll, you know, let
Speaker 4: them keep doing that. But but you have to stay composed,
Speaker 4: you know. I thought, again we talked about this at Kansas.
Speaker 4: They did a great job of coming right back and
Speaker 4: making plan the next play, because that was to me
Speaker 4: more frustrating at Kansas when you get four touchdowns called back,
Speaker 4: you know, and I think I think control what you control,
Speaker 4: which is playing hard, doing your job. Let the other
Speaker 4: stuff just happen as it's gonna happen. I'll yell at
Speaker 4: the rest, you know, we'll we'll turn these things in
Speaker 4: and try to talk through it at the end of
Speaker 4: this and try to get them better. But our guys
Speaker 4: can't can't control these rests, and so they have to
Speaker 4: just play and play hard and hopefully things go our way.
Speaker 10: Dave, Hey, coach, I saw that the Oklahoma State game
Speaker 10: just got flat next to eight o'clock on ESPN two.
Speaker 10: How much does a primetime game help the exposure of
Speaker 10: the university.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just all about winning.
Speaker 4: I don't care what time it is, man, Yeah, if
Speaker 4: it's twelve, noon, seven, eight, three thirty, just go win.
Speaker 4: I think, you know, you want to have eyes on
Speaker 4: the program for sure, like whenever you're playing, you know,
Speaker 4: But I think the main thing for us is to
Speaker 4: go out and play well and get the victory.
Speaker 3: You know, we haven't played it.
Speaker 4: I guess the last I feel like the last game
Speaker 4: at night was Nebraska. You know, so it's been a
Speaker 4: while now, because so that one next week will be
Speaker 4: around that similar time.
Speaker 3: The things we worry about is, all right, how are
Speaker 3: we going to travel? You know?
Speaker 4: How is our day gonna set up for that day
Speaker 4: because that's a longer day for us.
Speaker 3: There will be ball on that day, so that's good.
Speaker 4: When the guys are in the hotel, so you know,
Speaker 4: we probably usually go to a to a high school,
Speaker 4: you know, and practice up twenty thirty minutes to a
Speaker 4: little walk through before the game.
Speaker 3: So it should be a good routine for us, Tom coach.
Speaker 6: If the videos on my phone are correct, the last
Speaker 6: time the students stormed the field was December fourth, twenty
Speaker 6: twenty one. I don't know how much you can say
Speaker 6: about it, but let me ask you this way, how
Speaker 6: does it affect the team.
Speaker 3: When they storm to feel like that's her? Yeah?
Speaker 4: No, I mean it's great. That means you're doing something good.
Speaker 4: You know, it's pretty awesome, you know. I think I
Speaker 4: said this today. I think it's awesome for our students,
Speaker 4: particularly because you know, when you come to school like
Speaker 4: this and they're so involved in our games, football and basketball,
Speaker 4: and they're there and that participation.
Speaker 3: They don't forget it.
Speaker 4: And when you play a ranked team and you win
Speaker 4: and they get the wrong on the.
Speaker 3: Field, they talk about that.
Speaker 4: They'll talk about that for years, And I think they're
Speaker 4: creating some great memories and that's what I like about it.
Speaker 3: But it's good for our team. But it just means
Speaker 3: we played well.
Speaker 6: And if you had a chance to look up in
Speaker 6: the stands, you saw the student section was there at
Speaker 6: the end of the game.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, man, it was awesome. It was awesome. That was
Speaker 4: a great crowd. I love the stripe red and black.
Speaker 4: Great coach. Yep, well, yep, try to be I mean,
Speaker 4: we uh, we put it all together.
Speaker 3: I think it all helps. Like certainly, Bob, so.
Speaker 11: You're you know, it's uh getting late in the game
Speaker 11: and you're sitting uh on the minus eighteen and.
Speaker 12: Most people just get the first down.
Speaker 2: Let's keep this going.
Speaker 11: What did you see that that you could talk to
Speaker 11: swersby Yeah and make that call.
Speaker 2: Because that was so that was beautiful time beautiful.
Speaker 3: It was beautiful.
Speaker 4: And I think you know that play, that actual play
Speaker 4: we called on fourth and ten at the Kansas game
Speaker 4: that we ended up hitting Noah on fourth and ten.
Speaker 4: It's the same play, you know, and Brenda's done a
Speaker 4: good job of reading that play out. We've we've run
Speaker 4: that play. I think I can't remember, maybe five or
Speaker 4: six times this year. We've hit all four receivers in
Speaker 4: that particular play depending on what the defense does. And
Speaker 4: in that play we saw man with with no free
Speaker 4: safety back there, and so he just told sore behaved,
Speaker 4: the post may be here, you know, and then he
Speaker 4: drops back and it shirted up. It was and we
Speaker 4: feel like, goodie on one on one is gonna win.
Speaker 4: And you know, he broke it out as a great throw.
Speaker 4: He put a lot of.
Speaker 3: Air under it.
Speaker 4: You know, what a great moment in that game at
Speaker 4: that point in time. We needed to have a play
Speaker 4: for sure. At that point in time, we hadn't done
Speaker 4: a whole lot in the second half and it come
Speaker 4: in a critical time to get to get up two scores.
Speaker 4: And it's just a great execution by our guys and
Speaker 4: good job locking up front.
Speaker 3: He had great time on that one, and man good
Speaker 3: he did the rest. It was awesome.
Speaker 1: Stu Hey coach first of all, Jim.
Speaker 13: I'm sure Jim's probably listening at home, and he's had
Speaker 13: been in our prayers and we'll continue to be thanks
Speaker 13: to a full recovery. And I'm guessing maybe now besides
Speaker 13: coach Fickle calling, you went walker back maybe coach days
Speaker 13: calling for prior as well.
Speaker 12: After this week.
Speaker 13: Yeah, both were wonderful. So any major injuries from from
Speaker 13: this past week that we need to worry about for
Speaker 13: this game.
Speaker 3: No, we came out. We came out of the game healthy.
Speaker 4: I thought Dante man, you know, obviously worry he I
Speaker 4: think he ended up with thirty two snaps maybe in
Speaker 4: the game, which was great for him. Sunday came in.
Speaker 4: It felt good, you know, which is awesome. That's what
Speaker 4: you want to see. I think I think all our
Speaker 4: guys came out of the game for you know, you're
Speaker 4: always gonna have some bruises here and there, but I
Speaker 4: think all our guys came out healthy, and you know,
Speaker 4: they all practiced today, so it's good to see.
Speaker 1: All Right, we need to take a time out. We'll
Speaker 1: let coach take a seat. When we come back, we'll
Speaker 1: be joined by our special guest tonight, Brendan Soresby and
Speaker 1: ty Wee Walker. This is the Scott Saderfield Radio Show.
Speaker 1: We're live at the original Montgomery In home of the
Speaker 1: world's Greatest rips on seven hundred wlw Alan goes in motion,
Speaker 1: now goes back in the original direction. Soresby looking throwing
Speaker 1: Royer with the catch, break.
Speaker 5: The tackle, touchdown, Bearcats, you called it. Cincinnati finds Royer
Speaker 5: on third and five, and he scores to give the
Speaker 5: Bearcats a sixteen to nothing lead. One of the highlights
Speaker 5: from Saturday's win over fourteenth ranked Iowa State, and the
Speaker 5: guy that threw that touchdown passes one of our guests
Speaker 5: tonight here at the original Montgomery In home of the
Speaker 5: world's greatest rips. Let me introduce the two guys that
Speaker 5: are up at the table here with me. I'm going
Speaker 5: to start farthest away with a red shirt senior from
Speaker 5: Las Vegas, Nevada, in his first year as a Bearcat.
Speaker 5: He is currently public enemy number one in the defensive
Speaker 5: backs room at Iowa State after his angry runs last Saturday.
Speaker 5: Let's hear it for number three, Tawie Walker.
Speaker 1: Lazy and next to me, a red shirt junior from Denton,
Speaker 1: Texas that's a little bit north of Dallas. He's in
Speaker 1: his second year with the Bearcats. The highest graded quarterback
Speaker 1: in the country currently by Pro Football Focus, number two,
Speaker 1: Brendan Soresby. All Right, we heard a Brendan highlight his
Speaker 1: touchdown pass to Joe Royer a few moments ago. We're
Speaker 1: gonna listen in to a Tawee highlight from last week's game.
Speaker 1: I think this was ten nothings Cincinnati at the time,
Speaker 1: about three minutes to go in the first quarter. A
Speaker 1: memory that number fourteen from Iowa State would like to forget.
Speaker 1: Let's listen back. Cincinnati lines up, quickly snaps it, hands
Speaker 1: it off to Walker again, finds a hole right side.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, he just put his helmet into a
Speaker 1: defensive back and trucked him before running down to the
Speaker 1: forty four yard line of Iowa State. That is as
Speaker 1: violently as I think I've ever seen a running back
Speaker 1: run over at.
Speaker 11: dB was Carson Willich as well, coming up to make
Speaker 11: a play helmet straight through the chest from Walker.
Speaker 1: That was something Tony Pike identified the victim. I was,
Speaker 1: you know, just only going to refer to him by number.
Speaker 1: I want to ask you, Brandon, what did that do
Speaker 1: for everybody else on the team?
Speaker 14: I think it, you know, did something to everybody in
Speaker 14: the stadium was like, wow, So this is how you
Speaker 14: know Cincinnati's coming today. I think it just shows like
Speaker 14: the toughness obviously that he brings to the table, and
Speaker 14: then just the physicality that we're playing with as a team.
Speaker 12: Right now. But no, that was.
Speaker 14: Definitely, probably by far of the best truck that I've
Speaker 14: ever seen. I was kind of shocked when I saw
Speaker 14: his feet kind of going to the air. I was like,
Speaker 14: oh gosh, that's not good.
Speaker 12: So no, it was an unbelievable run for sure.
Speaker 2: Do you try to set a tone how we definitely
Speaker 2: like especially the type of team we have. We have
Speaker 2: a lot of feed on the team and in the
Speaker 2: backfield we have. We have a lot of guys that's
Speaker 2: real fast and it can do stuff out the backfield,
Speaker 2: not kind of the I'm kind of the guy that
Speaker 2: has to be the power guy and set the tone.
Speaker 2: That's kind of my game. So definitely try to set
Speaker 2: the tone.
Speaker 1: He's game. You and have a combined for two hundred
Speaker 1: rushing yards last week. I think on the majority of
Speaker 1: your runs you are a couple of yards down the
Speaker 1: field before you got touched. I mean, how would you
Speaker 1: describe the way the old line has played this year?
Speaker 2: Man? They've played amazing, especially we got two new guys
Speaker 2: that's first year is just like me on the team.
Speaker 2: It's really it falls under Gavin though. Gavin Gyard is
Speaker 2: a probably the best leader I've been around and he
Speaker 2: has them guys sharp and as the chemistry is amazing.
Speaker 1: Brandon, you've only been sacked once, as coach mentioned, tied
Speaker 1: for first in the country. I think Oregon and Navy
Speaker 1: have also only surrendered one sacked. Navy doesn't count because
Speaker 1: they don't pass very often. But the same question for
Speaker 1: you that I just asked Tawee, how would you describe
Speaker 1: the play of the old line.
Speaker 14: Yeah, unbelievable, not only just in the past game, but
Speaker 14: the run game as well, clear and run lanes for
Speaker 14: these guys and myself to run the ball and then
Speaker 14: whenever we need to throw the ball downfield and push
Speaker 14: it downfield.
Speaker 12: They're doing a great job of protecting that.
Speaker 14: One sacks not not even their fault, so you know,
Speaker 14: it was on a bootleg and just happened to be
Speaker 14: a perfect dot up play for Kansas. So they're playing
Speaker 14: really well up front and definitely glad to be buying
Speaker 14: those guys.
Speaker 1: Are you a little horse from trying to be heard
Speaker 1: over the crowd on Saturday?
Speaker 12: Yeah, it is like my voice. I'm just battling through
Speaker 12: it right now. I'm trying.
Speaker 14: I'm trying to actually focus on it, so I'm not
Speaker 14: voice cracking up here.
Speaker 12: But yeah, my voice is gone.
Speaker 14: I've had I had to drink a little little potion
Speaker 14: from mister Aaron Himmler or or a trainer to be
Speaker 14: able to go tonight. So it's not just the game
Speaker 14: that you're preparing for, Dan, you know, you're preparing for
Speaker 14: for the radio interview as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, shoot, the next time my voice goes, I'm
Speaker 1: going to Aaron because you're getting you something out, which
Speaker 1: is good. We love having players on this show. We
Speaker 1: typically have two at every show. In the second half hour,
Speaker 1: I like to ask each guy to talk about the
Speaker 1: other because I know college athletes sometimes are reluctant to
Speaker 1: talk about themselves. So that's what I'm going to do tonight. Brendan,
Speaker 1: describe your teammate and friends. How wee Walker?
Speaker 12: Yeah, so when a tie we got here.
Speaker 14: You know, he the image that he puts on on
Speaker 14: Instagram and stuff is that he's, you know.
Speaker 12: Just this tough guy and he's really just a sweetheart.
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 14: He's actually one of my one of my best friends
Speaker 14: on the team, so you know, we're always messing with
Speaker 14: each other.
Speaker 12: He's a really good leader.
Speaker 14: He's been been awesome for just our offseason program for
Speaker 14: the young guys to buy in. Just being a new
Speaker 14: guy and still be able to be a leader is
Speaker 14: really impressive. And then, like I said, he's just a sweetheart.
Speaker 14: He's fun to be around, and he's he's one of
Speaker 14: my good buddies.
Speaker 1: And your turn to describe your feelings for a brand.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is one of my closest friends on the team,
Speaker 2: if not the closest. Uh. I feel like I hang
Speaker 2: out with him the most out of out of the
Speaker 2: guys on the team, especially I'm my older guy. I
Speaker 2: really don't hang around college campus too often, so especially
Speaker 2: when I'm my free time, I usually spend with him. Uh.
Speaker 2: One of the most confident guys I've been around. A
Speaker 2: great thing though. He's not cocky, real humble, but super
Speaker 2: confident off and on the field. So blessed to be
Speaker 2: a part of this team. He's super dynamic on the field,
Speaker 2: makes my job easier when when teams have to worry
Speaker 2: about what he can do. So it's like that's a blessing.
Speaker 2: And be a part of a team with a corback
Speaker 2: can run, throw the ball and running like a running back,
Speaker 2: so it's really like you got two backs on the
Speaker 2: field at once. So this is a blessing to be
Speaker 2: a part of this team.
Speaker 1: Well, so we were fortunate to have you in the
Speaker 1: sense that at the end of last season, you play
Speaker 1: at Wisconsin, you're getting ready to go pro, thinking that
Speaker 1: you know you're gonna get ready for the NFL Draft,
Speaker 1: And then the NCAA decided that players who had played
Speaker 1: in junior college previously could have an extra year of eligibility.
Speaker 1: That opened up a chance for you to have one
Speaker 1: more college season, and we're thrilled you elected to a
Speaker 1: come to Cincinnati to play that season. You must be
Speaker 1: just delighted by how this is all working out for.
Speaker 2: You, definitely, And I'm super grateful to Beer and I'm super
Speaker 2: happy to be This is a great choice for me,
Speaker 2: and it's just everything's to me. I think everything happens
Speaker 2: for a reason, and I feel like everything's falling into
Speaker 2: place just like how I plan it to go. So
Speaker 2: I'm super grateful to be here, all right.
Speaker 1: When Nick Say was still the head coach at Alabama,
Speaker 1: he used to talk about his team's getting a lot
Speaker 1: of attention and publicity, and the term he used was
Speaker 1: rat poison. He didn't want his players to taste that
Speaker 1: rat poison. So are we in a position now where
Speaker 1: you guys have to think about how you're going to
Speaker 1: deal with success after knocking off a number fourteen rank
Speaker 1: team and climbing toward the top twenty five yourself.
Speaker 14: I think, you know, the mindset that we attack each
Speaker 14: and every week is, you know, go want to know.
Speaker 14: I think that we've already forgotten about the past two games. Obviously,
Speaker 14: you know, we're we're happy about the wins, but you know,
Speaker 14: those two games don't define us, and you know, we
Speaker 14: want to go achieve our goals, which is getting to
Speaker 14: Dallas and you know, winning a big twelve championship at
Speaker 14: the end of the day. So we got to take
Speaker 14: it one week at a time. We're doing a really
Speaker 14: good job of blocking the outside noise out. Obviously, you know,
Speaker 14: with with success comes all this, you know, publicity and stuff.
Speaker 14: But we're doing a good job of blocking it out
Speaker 14: and we're just ready to go for this Saturday.
Speaker 1: I think coach Sanderfield made a great point speaking to
Speaker 1: the media earlier today. You've only played two league games.
Speaker 1: It's been great, but you've got seven league games to go,
Speaker 1: hopefully eighty.
Speaker 2: Especially I played in the Big Twelve before the Big Twelve,
Speaker 2: so it's so shaky. Anybody can beat anybody in the
Speaker 2: Big Twelve. One of the most competitive conferences in my opinion,
Speaker 2: and I'm kind I'm kind of happy they left us
Speaker 2: out of the top twenty five, so we still have
Speaker 2: that edge and to prove to everybody that, like, we
Speaker 2: got to just keep going if we want to be
Speaker 2: where if we want to be where we want to be,
Speaker 2: then we have to keep winning and just keep stacking day.
Speaker 2: So we have to flush it, and we're really been
Speaker 2: emphasizing that. So I think the team gets the point.
Speaker 1: When the students storm the field, do you have a
Speaker 1: sense that it's coming or does it surprise you when
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you see the sea of humanity
Speaker 1: coming your way.
Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean I thought it was kind of obvious
Speaker 14: whenever they started taking down the railings or whatever you
Speaker 14: want to call it. I didn't notice that, and they're
Speaker 14: kind of like starting to pour onto the field out
Speaker 14: on that end zone. So it was definitely a black
Speaker 14: You know, that's what you dream of as a kid, is,
Speaker 14: you know, being a part of that, being a part
Speaker 14: of the winning team and being able to interact with
Speaker 14: the fans on the field.
Speaker 12: It was a blast.
Speaker 14: So you know, hopefully obviously you don't get the opportunity
Speaker 14: to rust the field a ton, but you know, hopefully
Speaker 14: we have continued success for these fans. They did a
Speaker 14: great job and they were a huge part of that
Speaker 14: victory on Saturday.
Speaker 1: Did you linger out there, Tawee or did you seek shelter?
Speaker 2: No? I lingered out there and the fans were so nice.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 2: This I really was expecting. Whereas I thought it was
Speaker 2: gonna be chaos, everybody just bumping into everybody, but they
Speaker 2: were so nice to accent take pictures and autographs. I
Speaker 2: was surprised. You a lot of younger kids out there,
Speaker 2: but I love to see the younger kids out there, uh,
Speaker 2: smiling and having fun. So it was it was a
Speaker 2: blast for me. It was definitely something I want to
Speaker 2: see again. All right.
Speaker 1: Our special guests are quarterback Brendon Source being running back
Speaker 1: Tawie Walker. We're going to open it up to questions
Speaker 1: from the audience when we come back. We're live at
Speaker 1: the original Montgomery In home of the world's greatest reps
Speaker 1: on News Radio seven hundred DOULW Third Down and eight
Speaker 1: Cats at their own eighteen yard line. Soresby catches the
Speaker 1: shotgun snap he's looking to throw, floats it high and
Speaker 1: deep downfield.
Speaker 5: Good even the catch, racing to the forty thirty twenty fifteen.
Speaker 15: Ten five touchdown Bearcats eighty two yards and in case
Speaker 15: you're wondering, no penalty.
Speaker 1: Flags made sense at the time to add that nugget.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Scott Sanderfield Radio Show. We're live
Speaker 1: at the original Montgomery In home of the world's greatest ribs.
Speaker 1: Brendan Soresby one of our guests tonight. He has twelve
Speaker 1: touchdown passes, only one pick this year to how we
Speaker 1: walker our other guests, leading the bear Cats with three
Speaker 1: hundred and thirteen rushing yards, averaging more than five and
Speaker 1: a half yards per Carrie. Time for questions from the audience.
Speaker 1: Stew Is up first.
Speaker 13: So, Tyrie, you'd not only trucked him once, you trucked
Speaker 13: him twice number fourteen. I'm just curious after the first
Speaker 13: time you trucked him, then he he hit Brandon pretty
Speaker 13: hard and he went back to the sideline celebrating. I'm
Speaker 13: just curious, Brendan, did you say something to Tyree like
Speaker 13: you gotta truck.
Speaker 1: Him one more go get him again.
Speaker 12: Yeah, no, no, I didn't. I think tell we, I
Speaker 12: think you.
Speaker 14: I think he kind of approaches you know, each each
Speaker 14: run the same way, like somebody's gonna get ran over regardless.
Speaker 14: So fourteen was just the unlucky victim of it. So yeah, no,
Speaker 14: I was. I was just kind of chogging some trash
Speaker 14: to fourteen after he hit me. Then the refs started
Speaker 14: getting onto me, and then that was all other deal.
Speaker 14: But yeah, ti uh, he did a good job running
Speaker 14: him over again.
Speaker 1: A little surprised there wasn't police tape on the field
Speaker 1: where that happened.
Speaker 3: Fellas.
Speaker 9: This is just an observation more than anything. Some of
Speaker 9: the other conferences who think that their defecation has no
Speaker 9: odor have tried to call You're welcome the Big twelve,
Speaker 9: the truck Stop Conference. I just want to thank you
Speaker 9: for putting the truck in the truck Stop Conference.
Speaker 1: All right, John Daniel hustling over today for the next question.
Speaker 1: Good first step quickness.
Speaker 3: There, Hey, guys, this is for both of you.
Speaker 16: I typically asked this question of the guys that are
Speaker 16: here with you, guys not being from Cincinnati, what's one
Speaker 16: thing from Cincinnati that you guys like, whether it be
Speaker 16: a restaurant, a place to go, another sports team.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'll go, I'll go.
Speaker 2: I feel like it's gonna be the same answer, but
Speaker 2: go ahead.
Speaker 14: Well, I really enjoyed Jeff Ruby's.
Speaker 12: That's my favorite place to go.
Speaker 14: The offensive line also really enjoys Jeff Ruby, so we
Speaker 14: go there quite frequently. And then I also really enjoy baseball,
Speaker 14: so I like going to some Reds games for sure.
Speaker 2: I'll have to say Jeff Rubies too. That's probably my
Speaker 2: most go to spot out here. I haven't got this
Speaker 2: is to go to a baseball game or a Bengals game.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go to a Bengals game next week.
Speaker 1: All right, I see the Joe Flacco Show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hope, I hope as I hope it's a
Speaker 2: fun game. I definitely, I definitely hope it's a fun game.
Speaker 2: They played a Steelers. It should be an interesting game.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a great win on a Thursday night.
Speaker 1: You heard it here. First down, go the dreaded, hated,
Speaker 1: but grudgingly respected Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 17: All Right, two comments in a question. Damn great call
Speaker 17: at the end.
Speaker 1: That was just what make you sir?
Speaker 17: Did you pre playing that?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 2: Oh the upset?
Speaker 1: Uh sort of so I I mentioned during the game
Speaker 1: that it wasn't going to be an upset and then
Speaker 1: that kind of got the gears turning that what would
Speaker 1: it be? Thank you appreciate it.
Speaker 3: All.
Speaker 17: The stats are great, but your leadership this year is
Speaker 17: just incredible and that's why we're doing combined with the
Speaker 17: players obviously, is why we're doing well.
Speaker 3: So thank you. Be a great leader.
Speaker 2: And tywee.
Speaker 17: Any difference between playing at Wisconsin and here that you've noticed,
Speaker 17: it might be a tough question to answer, but just
Speaker 17: throwing it out.
Speaker 2: There, very tough question. But I love I love them
Speaker 2: guys dearly at Wisconsin, but it's just way more heart
Speaker 2: on this team starts with our leaders. Definitely. We just
Speaker 2: we're a player led team and we're just so bought
Speaker 2: into this team, into this program, and I feel like
Speaker 2: I haven't been a part of a team that has
Speaker 2: this much heart and belief. So I feel like this
Speaker 2: is just that's the biggest difference career.
Speaker 3: Love that love.
Speaker 18: That's all right. So I'm a student like you guys.
Speaker 18: I'm a third year business major. I don't know what
Speaker 18: your guys majuor is how do you balance your athletic
Speaker 18: life with your academic life? And we're some sacrifices that
Speaker 18: you have to make in your life to succeed in
Speaker 18: both fields.
Speaker 14: Well, how whe he's like twenty six, I don't even
Speaker 14: know if he still does school anymore, how to do something.
Speaker 14: I'm in a pretty easy major myself. I'm I always
Speaker 14: joke around it while not being here to play school.
Speaker 14: So you know, obviously the degree is important, but at
Speaker 14: the end of the day, we all want to win
Speaker 14: football games. So the sacrifice I would say is just like,
Speaker 14: you know, making sure that you are getting your work done,
Speaker 14: making sure that you are you know, making good grades
Speaker 14: to stay eligible obviously, but I would say, you know,
Speaker 14: just just continueing too.
Speaker 12: Obviously, it's tough going for practice.
Speaker 14: And you're at the facility all day and then just
Speaker 14: trying to stay ahead of your homework that we're not,
Speaker 14: you know, really flustered at the last second trying to
Speaker 14: get it all in. So I don't know if we
Speaker 14: I don't know if he has anything to add on
Speaker 14: to that.
Speaker 2: Like, like he said, I'm an older guy, so I'm
Speaker 2: fortunate enough to have online classes and that's not too art.
Speaker 2: But when I was a younger guy, uh, I'm assuming
Speaker 2: it's all sports teams. They they kind of forced you
Speaker 2: into having tutors and whatnot. So you guys have help, help,
Speaker 2: help anytime you need it. So that's really the biggest difference.
Speaker 2: You guys have a lot of sports teams. I have
Speaker 2: a lot of help around them, So that's probably the
Speaker 2: biggest thing.
Speaker 3: Brian so Brendan.
Speaker 8: I was gonna ask coach this, and then I realized, wait,
Speaker 8: I can just ask you that r PO that was
Speaker 8: never really an r p O. The touchdown that you
Speaker 8: ran for. Was that designed that way? Or did you
Speaker 8: see something? And it's like, I just.
Speaker 12: Gotta go, I wouldn't. I don't know.
Speaker 14: Okay, now now you kind of stopped me with that question,
Speaker 14: but it was it was kind of just a designed
Speaker 14: run for me. We didn't obviously see it going back
Speaker 14: that way. That was just kind of a happening. But no,
Speaker 14: it was the old line protected it really well, and
Speaker 14: then the just the motion from our tight ends and
Speaker 14: stuff got him to you know, overrun it, and then
Speaker 14: just the red sea parted. So it was just just
Speaker 14: kind of a happ I guess.
Speaker 19: Nancy Hey, guys, question for Brendan. All right, so last
Speaker 19: weekend I was fell asleep, woke up about three o'clock
Speaker 19: and with the end of the Kansas State game, and
Speaker 19: all the guys came on and they were going, hey,
Speaker 19: we all voted against you.
Speaker 1: You did a really good job.
Speaker 3: We thought you were.
Speaker 19: Going to lose, and you did a little two foot shuffle.
Speaker 3: Just a little saucer, just a little song. Was it that?
Speaker 3: What it was? Just a little saucer, not too much.
Speaker 12: I don't want to.
Speaker 2: Don't you do it?
Speaker 12: Don't you ask me to do it right here?
Speaker 3: Don't you ask me?
Speaker 1: Good try Nancy? Anybody else have a question for Brendan
Speaker 1: or Tawei.
Speaker 20: Yes, Tracy Brendan, I've already mentioned this too, But your
Speaker 20: body has changed a lot since last.
Speaker 1: Year, and so is mine, but is going in the
Speaker 1: right directions.
Speaker 20: As someone that has noticed, and I'm sure other people
Speaker 20: have noticed, what are some of the things that you
Speaker 20: have done to achieve this transformation?
Speaker 14: You know, honestly, it's just been just been all the
Speaker 14: players just buying into the weightlifting and offseason program with
Speaker 14: Nico Palazetdi. He's done a great job and pretty much,
Speaker 14: you know, going into the summer, and as we got
Speaker 14: closer to season, I knew that I was gonna be
Speaker 14: obviously running the ball a good amount, and I wanted
Speaker 14: to be able to take more hits and you know,
Speaker 14: be in better shape. So eventually I just said, you
