Speaker 4: Here he is our friend, Courtesyavenue Kings dot Com, Brett Boon.

27
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 3: How are you pale?

28
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,839
Speaker 5: How you doing good? I'm doing well. I'm doing well.

29
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 5: Good statue. Where's the statue gonna go?

30
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 4: It's gonna go right next to Edgar Martinez and Ken

31
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 4: Griffy Junior, right outside the home plate entrance. I thought

32
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 4: they should have put it outside the right field entrance,

33
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 4: but that apparently was too far up the ramp for

34
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 4: people to walk. So it's going right outside the stadium,

35
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 4: right right next to Griffy and right next to Edgar.

36
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, very cool, very cool.

37
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, you got into each yirod stories by the way

38
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 4: you play with the guy. You gotta have a couple

39
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 4: favorite eachyuro stories moments that whatever.

40
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 5: We've told these stories before, Softie, I just you know

41
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 5: the whole thing, the whole thing with each row in

42
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 5: the very beginning, because I came over the same year

43
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 5: each row. You know that, oh one year that was

44
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 5: his first year was my first year and I was

45
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 5: coming over from UH from the Padres and I just

46
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 5: remember going to camp and you know, he at the time,

47
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 5: he didn't he didn't talk much as time went on,

48
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 5: absolutely right. But I remember shooting the first commercial with him,

49
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 5: and you know, everybody was talking in camp like what's

50
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 5: this Ichi Row on your back? You know, it's Suzuki

51
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 5: like everybody else, And it was kind of a first

52
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 5: and we were all just kind of looking at each

53
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 5: other like what is this. We shot that commercial that

54
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 5: first year with Ichi Row, and then I had my jersey.

55
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 5: I was a background player in the first commercial and

56
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 5: I had bread on my back and it just kind

57
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 5: of grew from there. I mean, just the little things

58
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 5: he would say, you know, funny, knew a lot more

59
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 5: English than people knew. That it was very charming personality.

60
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 5: Well I say there like past tense. He's got a

61
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 5: very charming personality. It's funny, dry sense of humor. And

62
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 5: I just remember just that first camp, you know, and

63
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 5: Lou at the time Banella's just walking around like with

64
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 5: Google guys, like what is what are we doing here?

65
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 5: And Eachie Row he would stick with his you know,

66
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 5: with his UH with the way he went about his business,

67
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 5: and he wasn't going to change for anybody. I just

68
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 5: remember Lou grabbing him in the middle of the game

69
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 5: one day and say, Hey, can you just prove to

70
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 5: me at least prove to me that you could pull

71
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 5: a ball? And Eachi Row looked at him and it

72
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 5: was like like he had three eyes, and he said no,

73
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 5: and he went up to the plate and I think

74
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 5: he like tigg to hit down. He hit a double

75
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 5: leg down the left field line going the other way,

76
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 5: he kinda and Lou was just kind of like, what's

77
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 5: going on? Then basically, once the season started and everybody

78
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 5: found out what each Row is all about, you know

79
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 5: a guy that kind of changed. He changed the game

80
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 5: in a way. I mean he because of his his

81
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 5: technique and the way he got out of the box

82
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 5: so fast and had such a head start on that

83
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 5: home to first. He changed the way people had to

84
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 5: play defense. I mean, he'd hit a routine ground ball

85
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 5: to short and I remember those first couple of months,

86
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 5: he'd hit a routine ground ball to short and he'd

87
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 5: beat it out and the shortstop would go, what is

88
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 5: going on here? And they had to make an adjustment.

89
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 5: When each Row was up because they'd never seen anybody

90
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 5: get out of the box like that. I mean when

91
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 5: he would swing, he'd be two or three steps down

92
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 5: the line. So I got tons of stories about him.

93
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 5: You know, he used to bring me his lovely wife

94
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 5: used to make me rice balls during that one season.

95
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 5: She would bring him into my locker every day, and

96
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 5: I would you know, i'd like to Yeah, me and

97
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 5: Eachro's wife, she's she's definitely a better half. Now I'm kidding. Yeah,

98
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 5: it's uh, you know, he's the whole each Row thing.

99
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 5: You know that what's happened in Home Slice that he

100
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 5: dropped on the on the Empire, uh going out for

101
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 5: opening day on his way out to right field, and

102
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 5: they were you know, and I forget who the Empire was.

103
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 5: But he came in and told me, said, booney, did

104
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 5: you could you can you believe what each Road has

105
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 5: said to me? And he's in tears, laughing, And I

106
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 5: said it wouldn't surprise me because at this time, we

107
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 5: had got through the spring and we'd realized that he

108
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 5: knows more, he's he's he's on to more than you think.

109
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 5: And he was just going out to right field and

110
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 5: and uh, the umpire was out there to greet him,

111
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 5: you know, welcome him to America. Hey, congratulations, this is

112
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 5: your first game. And he just he dropped to what's

113
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 5: happening home slice.

114
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 4: On him and.

115
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 5: Right field and played his catch. So there's a there's

116
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 5: a lot of moments, there's a lot of movements with.

117
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 6: That accent that had to be hilarious. But uh, and

118
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 6: Brett Boone with us.

119
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 7: Uh.

120
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 6: Okay, so he gets his his h his honor, and

121
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 6: and that's great. You know, far be it from me

122
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 6: to even second guess that. By all rights, he seems deserving.

123
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 6: But let me ask you this, where do you stop?

124
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 6: Because the one thing you can say is that every

125
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 6: time you add another statue, you necessarily you kind of

126
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 6: water down a little bit. Like to me, if there

127
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 6: was going to be one guy in the history of

128
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 6: the Seattle Mariners, and and it's very subjective, I would

129
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 6: say it's Griffy. Somebody else could.

130
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 5: Say absolutely so.

131
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 6: So so what if if Brett Boone's making the decision,

132
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 6: how many statues do you have?

133
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 3: Do you have three?

134
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 4: Now?

135
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 6: Do you have thirteen?

136
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 7: Like?

137
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 4: What? What?

138
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 3: What? What?

139
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 6: What's the right number?

140
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 5: Griffy's the obvious Edgar was kind of mister Mariner and

141
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 5: Uh and each year old. It's kind of different in

142
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 5: each other because he kind of broke broke through a barrier,

143
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 5: you know, he was the first from what I remember,

144
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 5: I remember Hideo Nomo as the first that I considered

145
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 5: legit Japanese player that came here and some staying power

146
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 5: did well. Each Row for me, was kind of the

147
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 5: first offensive player that put his mark on. I think

148
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 5: the first criteria is they have to be, you know,

149
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 5: a Mariner for a long period of time. You have

150
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 5: to be a bonafide Hall of Famer, which all three are,

151
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 5: and I think in each two. Roe's case, it's just

152
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 5: kind of he broke through. He was he was, he

153
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 5: was one. You know, he was the first I think

154
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 5: of Japanese kind of he's kind of a trailblazer. I

155
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 5: think for what came after that, Matt Suey in New

156
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 5: York and he won those World Series with the Yankees.

157
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 5: He was kind of the second one, and it's paved

158
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 5: the way for a lot of great Japanese players over

159
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 5: the years. But I think each Row is the first.

160
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 5: So yeah, I completely understand where do you stop you?

161
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 5: I mean, the criteria is you got to probably be

162
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 5: a Mariner or whatever team's given you the catch for

163
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 5: a long time. You got to be beloved, and you

164
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 5: got to be a bonafide Hall of Famer, that first

165
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 5: ballot type. Yeah, well that Edgar wasn't a first ballot.

166
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 5: But you know, Edgar in his own way is kind

167
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 5: of special to the city of Seattle. He was there

168
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 5: his entire career. He was beloved as much as anyone

169
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 5: I've ever played with, you know, from a not only

170
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 5: a teammate organizational but from a fans perspective, so specially,

171
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 5: So Edgar has a kind of a special niche on

172
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 5: top of being a Hall of Famer and a great Mariner,

173
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 5: So they're all kind of unique. Griffy griff is the obvious.

174
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 5: You know, he kind of put the Seattle Mariners on

175
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 5: the map with when when he arrived and I forget

176
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 5: what it was, eighty nine, So Griffy's Griffy's Griffy, and

177
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 5: he's junior, and he's you know, he's he transcends the

178
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,559
Speaker 5: city of Seattle, and that he's kind of on that

179
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 5: that mount rushmore of of greats from that era. But uh, yeah,

180
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 5: I think all three deserving. But yeah, I think it's

181
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 5: a good point. Where do you stop. How many statues

182
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 5: are you going to put up? I know that when

183
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 5: you get a statue, that's that's a different level.

184
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 4: Well, the Mariners have set president so far in that

185
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 4: if you make the Hall of Fame, you get your

186
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 4: number retired and you get a statue. Because all four

187
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 4: statues are all Hall of Fame people. Dave Niehaus is

188
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 4: in the Hall of Fame, each Rows in the Hall

189
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 4: of Fame, Edgar Martinez and King Griffy Junior all the

190
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 4: Hall of Fame, and the three players all have their

191
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 4: number retired. Seahawks are doing the same thing so far.

192
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 4: Play your whole career, make the Hall of Fame, you

193
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 4: get your number retired at Loomenfield. Now that's gonna change

194
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 4: with guys like Bobby Wagner down the road. Clearly a

195
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 4: lot of guys are gonna probably get their number retired

196
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 4: that did not finish their career in Seattle. But that's

197
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 4: the president they've set so far over at t Mobile Park.

198
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 4: But Brett Boone's with us courtesy Avenue Kings again at

199
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 4: about eight minutes, We're gonna ask you a question based

200
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 4: on this conversation. You get the answer right. Texting your

201
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 4: first and last name and the answer to four, nine,

202
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 4: four or five one. Jackson will draw one person for

203
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 4: a pair of seats to go watch the game tomorrow,

204
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 4: courtesy of Venue Kings and their good seats by the

205
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 4: way lower level right behind the third base bag. You'll

206
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 4: love them. So the Mariners on the field, oh my god,

207
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 4: four to nine worth start in fifth team years.

208
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 3: You got three.

209
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 4: Guys and Naylor and Cal and Julio that have one

210
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 4: bomb and ten RBIs between them and they're hitting a

211
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 4: buck twenty four Mariners are hitting a buck eighty three

212
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 4: as a team.

213
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 3: What the hell is going on?

214
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 4: Boonie? Talk to us.

215
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 5: I told you last year seeing the Mariners, you know,

216
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 5: when they played against US in Texas and when we

217
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 5: came out to Tea Mobile Park. They were the most

218
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 5: impressive American League team that I faced all year. And

219
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 5: that was the one team I didn't want to face

220
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 5: in the postseason if we made the postseason. And I'll

221
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 5: tell you what. There was an internal thing going on,

222
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 5: you know, starting in twenty three when the Texts Rings

223
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 5: won the World Series. You remember the last series of

224
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 5: the year to decide the division was in Seattle. It

225
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 5: was a four game set. Texas only had to win two.

226
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 5: Seattle took three out of four, and ever since then,

227
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 5: you know, I was late to the party. I came

228
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 5: in twenty five, but they said boone, Seattle's had our

229
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 5: number ever since that last series of the year in

230
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,719
Speaker 5: twenty three. Well, now, Texas went on to win the

231
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 5: World Series, so I don't think they really care that

232
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 5: much about that. But they were tough. They were tough

233
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 5: on us last year. They were tough on a lot

234
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 5: of people last year. I've been watching early and I

235
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 5: always say and because I've been through so many seasons

236
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 5: and I know the slow starts. I look at the

237
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 5: Boston Red Sox. You mentioned the Detroit Tigers on the opening.

238
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,079
Speaker 5: These are good teams, right, and they started off horribly.

239
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 5: I'm holding out for this Mariner team. I know how

240
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 5: good they're. They pitched good. They pitched good. These games

241
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 5: in Texas could have gone either way, all three of them,

242
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 5: and all had good pitching before. It was good to

243
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 5: see Gilbert come back and pitch well because the first

244
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 5: two outings a little shaky. With the exception of Castile,

245
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 5: in the last six or seven games, the starting pitching

246
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 5: has been money they're top and top in Baseball ERA

247
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 5: wise as a staff, so they're the pitching they are

248
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 5: like it always is. But I'll tell you mentioned Raleigh,

249
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 5: Naylor and Julio. I don't know that I've ever seen

250
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 5: that three that prominent of players, And it sounds like

251
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 5: I'm critiquing them, but it's more of a they're this

252
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 5: good to Raleigh, Julio MVP candidates a year ago going

253
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 5: into the season, absolute MVP candidates, and Naylor, I believe

254
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 5: was the only guy who hit three hundred last year.

255
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 5: To see that quality of offensive player, three of them

256
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 5: at the same time two weeks into the season to

257
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 5: open this poorly, I don't know that I've ever seen that.

258
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 5: And then the rest, you know, the rest of the

259
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 5: there's some guys doing okay, pinging it around throughout the lineup.

260
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 5: Donovan's been been a great addition, you know, He's been

261
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 5: one of the few bright spots on that offense. Four

262
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 5: and nine. I think they're going to get it going,

263
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 5: but the fact they went into Texas, who is it.

264
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 5: They're an okay team. They pitch really good, just like

265
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 5: the Mariners do. But the fact that to get sweat

266
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 5: it's time to kind of Okay, how long does this this? Uh?

267
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 5: We do we call it early in the season. Two weeks. Yes,

268
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 5: nobody's in a panic. I wouldn't be at a panic

269
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 5: if I'm a part of the Mariners. But the lack

270
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 5: of runs they're scoring with that high intensity of an offense,

271
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 5: I mean, they've got very able people in that offense,

272
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 5: then they're just not getting it done at this stage.

273
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 5: So it's kind of surprising me to see how fewer

274
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 5: runs they're scoring this early and they're big boys, all

275
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 5: struggling at the same time.

276
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, Brett boone with us, So let's pick it up

277
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 6: from there. And I honestly think that if I consider

278
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 6: two factors expertise and real authentic candor, I think you're

279
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 6: probably the best person to ask this question of anybody

280
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 6: that I could think of. And the question is this.

281
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 6: Let's say that M's come to you and they say,

282
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 6: we're exasperated with these damn or early starts. This is

283
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,319
Speaker 6: a four straight year where we've been five and eight

284
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 6: or worse, and all the hitting numbers that we're talking about.

285
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 6: You're gonna be whatever you think needs to be done.

286
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 6: We're just gonna do it unilaterally. You're changing. Is this

287
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,319
Speaker 6: the approach? Is it kind of a worldview about how

288
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 6: to hit? Is it a technique thing to somebody? Does

289
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 6: Dan Wilson have to throw, you know, you know, a

290
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 6: table around like Lou might have. Like what if in

291
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 6: your vision of how Seattle could be better at the

292
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 6: beginning season, what needs to happen?

293
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 5: Well, I just think I think a year ago they

294
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 5: kind of rowed a cloud into this season. I mean,

295
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 5: they were a game away from going to the World Series,

296
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 5: and I thought they were the better team actually in

297
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 5: them against the Blue Jays. And you come into the

298
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 5: season and everybody on paper and for the first time

299
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 5: I think in a lot of years, a lot of

300
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 5: people around baseball were picking the Mariners as the team

301
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 5: to beat in the West. At I definitely thought they

302
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 5: were the team to be I thought they were a

303
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 5: team to beat, not only in the West, in the

304
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 5: American League. I thought there were the talent of the

305
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 5: American League. I would take the Mariners if it was

306
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 5: a month ago right now, I said the Mariners are

307
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 5: the best team in the in the American League. It's

308
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 5: it's not proving out. But I also had Boston in

309
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 5: the East in Boston's in last place. So you know,

310
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 5: so much for me, No, so much for me knowing it.

311
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 5: I think hitting is so fickle and it's so hard.

312
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 5: And I got my first, you know, experience with it

313
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 5: last year with the Rangers. There's only what you can

314
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 5: do behind the scenes. And I used to heal. I

315
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 5: used to tell the players, I said, remember this, you're

316
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 5: the player. I'm a background player. There's only so much

317
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 5: I can do. I can prepare you. I can I

318
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 5: can give you pieces of advice. I can give you

319
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 5: just my experiences through the games. Things that have worked

320
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 5: for me, things that have not worked for me through

321
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 5: the years. Stuff I did that I wish I never did.

322
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 5: Stuff I would have learned. I wish I would have

323
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 5: learned earlier. All I can do is pass that information

324
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 5: on and my job is to try to get you

325
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 5: in the best frame of mind by the time we're

326
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 5: ready to go out and take the field to be successful.

327
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 5: And once that game starts, man, it's over with. You

328
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 5: go into it. Well, it's the approach. But I think

329
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 5: I think a year ago that offense was clicking, especially

330
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 5: down the stretch, and you had Edgar there, and you

331
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 5: had Kevin Sitzer there. These guys didn't just forget out

332
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 5: how to hit over the offseason. They didn't just completely

333
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 5: change their offensive plan. Cal Rawly hit sixty homers last year.

334
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 5: Do you think cal Rawley's going, well, I need to

335
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 5: make a tweak this offseason. Absolutely not. He wanted to

336
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 5: bottle that swing last year. He's coming in with the

337
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 5: same approach. I heard him talk last year cal and

338
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 5: I could tell that Edward had been an influence on

339
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 5: him because when in doubt, we stay through the middle

340
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 5: of the field. We stay through the middle of the field.

341
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 5: We never get pull happy. We stay through the middle

342
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 5: of the field, good things happen. And I think that's

343
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 5: kind of an easy way to start. Is Dan Wilson

344
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 5: going to be lou Panella? Absolutely not. The one thing

345
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 5: you need from a skipper, whoever your skipper is, is

346
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 5: you got to be authentic. Try to be somebody you're not.

347
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 5: If you're not to flip the table guy, to flip

348
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 5: the table over, guy, you don't go flip the table over.

349
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 5: These kids, these players absolutely are onto everything. They know

350
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 5: way more than you think they know, and they see

351
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 5: little things like that. They like genuine they like honesty,

352
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 5: and that's where you get the respect. So for Dan

353
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 5: to turn into someone Dan's not, they're gonna see right

354
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 5: through that, going, yeah, he's trying to so I think

355
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,959
Speaker 5: that they laugh, right.

356
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 7: And.

357
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 5: When Lo did it, Yeah, when Lou did it, you

358
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 5: knew he was a psycho, and you know what, you

359
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 5: still laughed, But it was for a different reason. It

360
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 5: wasn't disingenuous. He was literally losing his mind. I can

361
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 5: see Danny get a little pissed, but Danny's not gonna

362
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 5: flip over tables. He's just he's Dan Wilson's He's Dan

363
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 5: the man. I mean, he's just that consummate, you know,

364
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 5: he's the he's the uh, he's the president of your

365
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 5: high school. He gets good rage, he's a straight arrow.

366
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 5: He wears a collared shirt, parts his hair on the side,

367
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 5: and he's just like, could.

368
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 4: He be a better guy?

369
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 5: Dan Wilson. No. He was an awesome teammate and a

370
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 5: gamer and I love him, but he's not that guy.

371
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 5: So if you're looking for that, you're you're gonna have

372
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 5: to look somewhere else. And I don't think it would

373
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 5: benefit him or his team. This team is too good

374
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 5: to go like this for too long Before ninth start.

375
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 5: It's a little troubling. The good part is I think

376
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 5: that divisions really mediocre, really mediocre. I don't think LA

377
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,880
Speaker 5: can pitch enough. The the A's are going to be better.

378
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 5: They're gonna be better, but they're not going to be

379
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 5: contending for the division. I think Houston's your main competition

380
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 5: that in that division, like they always are, the Astros

381
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 5: never go away. Texas good early start, they're leading the

382
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 5: division right now. Really, I got question marks in Texas

383
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 5: about if that veteran if de Gram and Evaldi, can

384
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 5: they make the starts they need to make. They got

385
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 5: some young pitchers as well. But I think their main

386
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 5: competition this year is going to be the Houston Astros.

387
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 5: It sucks starting off four nine, but but they get

388
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,120
Speaker 5: a day off. I think they're home, right Who they play,

389
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 5: they're at home. The name they come out tomorrow.

390
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 4: They play, Yeah, they play San Diego.

391
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 5: Another teams, another team that's kind of under achieving right now.

392
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 5: So there's a lot of them.

393
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 3: Boonie, we gotta go.

394
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,760

437
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 4: at Derek Coleman Brusa, who was the new four star

438
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 4: edge rusher from Kennedy Katholic, and I'm staring at him

439
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 4: right now, and I think this is a guy as

440
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 4: a kid that you would actually like. He's got a

441
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 4: big ass. I think you like edge rushers with big asses,

442
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 4: don't you? Or am I confused?

443
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,640
Speaker 6: He's not too big, right, you don't do that technique

444
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 6: or zero?

445
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, he does not have He does not have a

446
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 4: Marcus Tubbs keyster. Right, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying,

447
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 4: as far as far as edge rushers go, it is

448
00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 4: obvious that he's got a solid core. Uh, he looked,

449
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 4: say he looks good on the hoof. He's wearing number five.

450
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 4: Uh you know the last guy we saw were number

451
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 4: five with that position, Zach. Their feet didn't turn out

452
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 4: so well, So hopefully it'll work better for this guy.

453
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 4: But Kevin, Yeah, yeah, Well, I'm saying for the Huskies

454
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 4: though he never find you, Dub right of course. Yeah.

455
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,400
Speaker 4: I mean, if you want, we can name a bunch

456
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 4: of guys that did wear number five for other teams

457
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 4: around college football and in.

458
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 6: The defensive ends, David, Okay.

459
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 4: I'm just thinking about guys that will were number five

460
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 4: for you, Dub. But I mean there's gonna be some

461
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 4: pressure on this guy, right, just like Cody Green at

462
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 4: the age of eighteen. We stop at the age of

463
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 4: eighteen years old. They're gonna play this guy. Hell, he

464
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 4: might even start for this team.

465
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 6: You yeah, I mean, if you've if you're that highly

466
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 6: saw out and and uh, I think if you have

467
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 6: the frame obviously the reason that's important. I mean, you know,

468
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 6: I'll quote John Schneider's his body profiling is a huge

469
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 6: part of what we do. And and when we were

470
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 6: discussing that, he was actually, uh, We're standing the pregame

471
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 6: in the north end zone watching the Vikings warm up,

472
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 6: and he was looking at the right guard for the

473
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 6: Vikings and he's like, look at that. He's got no

474
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 6: ass He's gonna get walked right back to the quarterback.

475
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 6: So it's the strongest muscle, uh in the body. And

476
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 6: and so I think that we should be able to

477
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 6: have an adult conversation and say, yeah, there's a correlation

478
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 6: generally defensive ends. You say, Okay, I want a guy

479
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 6: who's high cut, the proportion of his height in his waist,

480
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 6: because that that are in his legs, and a relatively

481
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 6: shorter toastert long long arms. Those those type of body

482
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 6: traits have proven through the decades to correlate more to

483
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 6: the most athleticism, the most explosion. Certainly, there's there's guys

484
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 6: that break the mold that Dwight Freeney would not fit

485
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 6: that mold, and and many others. You know, hell Bane

486
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 6: from Miami this year doesn't fit that mold. So there's

487
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,919
Speaker 6: there's a lot of guys. But the mold means, you know,

488
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 6: as a general rule, these are the trace that we

489
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,120
Speaker 6: see in the top players. And for defensive end, Yeah,

490
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 6: a high cut guy and you got to have some strength,

491
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 6: then it's generally gonna manifest itself and its ass.

492
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I don't want to have you just break

493
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 4: down the guy's butt. But there's a photo on your

494
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 4: phone by the way, you can grab and check it out.

495
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 4: But I think a lot of people are going to

496
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 4: be really curious to see what this kid looks like

497
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 4: in September because he might be the biggest star of

498
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 4: their recruiting class. You know, him and Cody Green. Obviously,

499
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 4: Cody Green is the five star guy and coleman Brus

500
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 4: is the four star guy. But he's a local guy

501
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 4: that stayed here throughout played at Kennedy. Cody Green obviously

502
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 4: took off went the matter day for a year. But

503
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 4: I don't ever remember a year where the Huskies will

504
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 4: be relying on an edge rusher and a left tackle

505
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 4: at the age of eighteen years old DCB. By the way,

506
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 4: Coleman Brusaw, he's not even eighteen, Hugh. This kid's that

507
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 4: you're looking at right now, he's seventeen years old, that dud. Yeah,

508
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 4: seventeen right now.

509
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I would say all the way through his

510
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 6: lower body is extremely well developed and so almost to

511
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 6: the point where it doesn't look like a defensive end.

512
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 6: It almost looks like a budding, like you know, five

513
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 6: technique or something, right, you know, got in a three four.

514
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,640
Speaker 5: But uh uh yeah, you.

515
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 6: Know, I just think it's the sign of the times.

516
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 6: But these guys are getting better training than they've ever had.

517
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 3: And uh yeah.

518
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 6: And you know, in the case of as we said,

519
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 6: you got a left tackle and he went off and

520
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 6: he prepped it modern day after being a local kid.

521
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 4: That that that.

522
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 6: Tells me something, right, you know, if if if Jedfish

523
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 6: thinks that he passed that test, then you're gonna have

524
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 6: to roll with it.

525

Speaker 4: Hey? You did you happen to hear that?

555
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 3: What's that?

556
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 4: Dick? We start in the NFL. The Ringers NFL draftan

557
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 4: Todd McShay Joan rich Eysen this week and was asked

558
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 4: which player is not getting talked about enough right now

559
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 4: ahead of the draft? What are we?

560
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 5: Who are you not talking about? Who you want to

561
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 5: pound a table for here? You think rising?

562
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 8: I look at this class and I just recently finished

563
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 8: up going back and looking at the running backs. I

564
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 8: think that the guy that everyone's sleeping on at this point,

565
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 8: and it was like a hot name early and knowing

566
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 8: I look at Jonah Coleman, and I watch his run style.

567
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 8: After I watched all the running backs, right, I came

568
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 8: back and I watched him. He's a bowling ball. He's

569
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,160
Speaker 8: got these light feet, he always runs with pad level.

570
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 5: He wears you down. He brings this energy to an offense.

571
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 8: He'll probably fall to the fourth round, and I think

572
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 8: a team's going to get a starter.

573
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 4: Well, we just talked about Jonah Coleman a few segments ago,

574
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 4: and you said that you would take the kid at

575
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 4: a Notre Dame price and the kid from Arkansas over

576
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 4: Jonah Coleman. Yep. But if we're off in fourth round,

577
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,640
Speaker 4: maybe fifth round, and Jonah Coleman's still sitting there, I mean,

578
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 4: obviously at some point you're looking at value, right, no doubt, right?

579
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 3: But sure, what do you make of what you heard

580
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 3: from them about.

581
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 6: Well, it's it's hard to say he wasn't. I don't

582
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 6: know if he was asked, Okay, where does he compare

583
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 6: to the other running backs? You know, I think that

584
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 6: Seattle's running back situation is concerning enough that it would

585
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 6: warrant a second round pick, and you know, under certain circumstances,

586
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 6: maybe a first round pick. I don't think there's anybody

587
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 6: there that that's going to warrant that thirty second pick

588
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 6: if they were to take you darn Price, who seems

589
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 6: to be the consensus. I like Mike Washington as a

590
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 6: thirty second pick. I wouldn't think it was a terrible pick,

591
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 6: but I think that I'd be surprised because I would

592
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 6: think John Schneider would want to wheel and deal a

593
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 6: little bit and move down a little bit more and

594
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 6: pick up a player an extra pick and still get

595
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 6: the same guy.

596
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, no doubt. Hey, Hugh, did you have to

597
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 4: hear that?

598
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:01,479
Speaker 5: What's that?

599
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 4: Dick?

600
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 3: Let's go to baseball. I want to play this for

601
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 3: a couple of days here.

602
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 4: Eryl Siegel, you don't hear a lot of kids being

603
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 4: born now with the name Errol, do you? Eryl Siegel

604
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 4: is an eighty one year old Dodger fan who's been

605
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 4: a season ticket.

606
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 3: Holder for fifty years.

607
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 4: Siega was recently featured on NBC Channel four in LA

608
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 4: because the Dodgers did not print his tickets this year,

609
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 4: creating issues for someone who can't use a computer.

610
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 9: The eighty one year old says the team told him

611
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 9: they've gone fully digital and printing his tickets is no

612
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 9: longer an option.

613
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 2: This year, I received a notice that no longer will

614
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 2: I be able to get printed tickets.

615
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 9: And that's a problem for Errol, who doesn't know how

616
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 9: to use a computer, and he barely has a phone.

617
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 3: I don't think he can get tickets on that phone.

618
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 4: You can't.

619
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 9: But yesterday Errol wanted to try something. He left this

620
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 9: recycling center, went to Dodger Stadium and bought four tickets

621
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 9: at the ticket window. Guess what he got them. So

622
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 9: clearly they can print tickets.

623
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 2: They could print them, they just don't want to print

624
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 2: them for me.

625
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 5: How does this make you feel terrible?

626
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,719
Speaker 6: Fifty years, five generations, I've had these tickets and they

627
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 6: threw me under.

628
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 4: The buff well. First of all, like anything, there might

629
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 4: be some context that we're missing here. We're hearing one

630
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 4: side of the story. But I would generally say, my

631
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 4: advice from a marketing perspective, you, with my massive marketing

632
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 4: degree that I have hanging in my bonus room at

633
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 4: home and my office at home, if there's an eighty

634
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 4: one year old, fifty year season ticket holder that wants

635
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 4: you to print up his tickets, print the freaking tickets,

636
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 4: that's it. Yeah, that's my advice.

637
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 6: It's hard to dispute that. But what if what if

638
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 6: he's been there for forty years, thirty years?

639
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,239
Speaker 4: Like well, I mean at some point, yeah, I mean

640
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 4: two years, whatever, I mean, Look, how many eighty one

641
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 4: year olds have season tickets anyway, honestly, and then how

642
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 4: many of them have had tickets for fifty years? Just

643
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 4: print the freaking things for God's sakes, find it. In turn,

644
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 4: find somebody the office who's got nothing to do, and

645
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 4: go print the damn guy's tickets. You got.

646
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, this this is not helping their their the pr

647
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 6: I don't know if they need the pr as good

648
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 6: as they are, but no, you don't want this if you're, yeah,

649
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 6: at any level of business. No, this is not and

650
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 6: this is not something that they want to be colored with.

651
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 6: And you know what, just take the north Strom approach,

652
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 6: you know, just make sure that that you know, a

653
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 6: fan of the Dodgers cannot be pissed at the Dodgers.

654
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, Well, and look, I agree with Errol that

655
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 4: I don't like the fact that you can't get paper tickets.

656
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 4: And I'm not even talking about going online and like

657
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 4: printing up a piece of paper for my printer in

658
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 4: my office at home. I want a freaking ticket, man,

659
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 4: When I go to a big game like the Super Bowl,

660
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 4: for example, right down in San Francisco, nobody had tickets

661
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 4: for that game on paper. Everything was digital. You want

662
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 4: to go buy a paper ticket, you can go online

663
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 4: to the Highland Men and pay like eighty bucks and

664
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 4: they'll send you one in a case with that and

665
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 4: it doesn't even have your seat number on it for

666
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 4: crying out loud. So I really missed the paper tickets. Man.

667
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 4: One of my favorite pieces of memorabilia that I have

668
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 4: is a ticket stub from the ninety five playoff game

669
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,719
Speaker 4: against the Angels that my dad and I went to,

670
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 4: and it's sitting on my wall.

671
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 3: Right over my desk, and I look at it every day.

672
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 4: And the fact that kids today and even people like

673
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 4: me that are fifty two years old can't have an

674
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 4: actual ticket from a big game that they went to

675
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 4: bring home is I'm a mento It bothers me. I

676
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 4: don't like it.

677
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think there's a lot of people share that.

678
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 6: I think there's a lot of other things going on

679
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 6: in the sports seat.

680
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 5: You know.

681
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 6: I used to like that, you know, just hey, it's

682
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 6: it's called the Fiesta Bowl. You know, why does there

683
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 6: have to be the Toastitas Fiesta Bowl? And you can't

684
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 6: stay Fiesta Bowl yet? You know, on and on and on.

685
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 6: So you know, the stadium naming rights. I mean there's

686
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 6: when I was a kid, man, stadium's had the coolest name,

687
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 6: Riverfront Stadium, three River Mile High Stadium. You know, like

688
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 6: there's that most of the tea, the stadiums in baseball

689
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 6: and and football had great sounding names. Yeah, and it's

690
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 6: just you know, gone the way of corporate.

691
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 4: I'm just thinking about Errol, poor Errol, and how many

692
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 4: kids today would be would be an even named Errol. Right,

693
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 4: you don't You don't see a lot of Errols. You

694
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 4: don't see a lot of Arrols. You don't see a

695
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 4: lot of Gullivers out there anymore. You don't see a

696
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 4: lot of Ezekiels out there anymore. Right, just some classic

697
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 4: names man, that are no longer a part of the

698
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 4: naming process. Man, they've just gone, they've gone away, all right? Hey, Hugh,

699
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 4: did you happen to hear that? What's that? Dick? Let's

700
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 4: start or excuse me, go back to how about we

701
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 4: go to golf. Golf Channel broadcaster Brandal Chambly was on

702
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 4: the Dan Patrick Show yesterday. It was asked if the

703
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 4: battle is finally over between the PGA Tour and live.

704
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 5: Golf, there's no big names in the last two or

705
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 5: three years who've gone to live like the fight is over.

706
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,719
Speaker 5: Did PGA Tour win? They didn't.

707
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean even when live events are broadcast in

708
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 10: the United States and even when they're broadcast and finished

709
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 10: in prime time on the East Coast, they garner thirty

710
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 10: five fifty five views. More people watch pickleball than that

711
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 10: on TV. They're just not galvanized anybody to watch them.

712
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 4: Well, I've never watched a live golf event in my life.

713
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 4: I've seen highlights on social media, never watched a live

714
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 4: golf event before. But I do know this that there's

715
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 4: been no member of the golf media that's pissed on

716
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 4: the Live Tour more than Brandall Champil since they since

717
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 4: they watched this thing.

718
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, I through the years, I've not agreed with his

719
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 6: take on that. Yeah, I think that that he he

720
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 6: was just ignorant to a lot of other realities in

721
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 6: the world, geopolitical world and the you know, the United

722
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 6: States long time alliance seven eight decades with Saudi Arabi.

723
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,799
Speaker 6: We have five air force bases, one hundred and twenty

724
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,720
Speaker 6: eight billion dollars and foreign military sales over three hundred

725
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 6: of the top companies in the United States. If it

726
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 6: pull out your wallet, your credit card, I guarantee you

727
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 6: your your bank is doing business in Saudi Arabi. And

728
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,240
Speaker 6: then all of a sudden, for this brief little time,

729
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 6: we want to just throw all the these these darts

730
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 6: at a little group of golfers who are doing exactly

731
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,439
Speaker 6: what the United States government is doing, exactly what big

732
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 6: business is doing. And you know, it's like, hey, if

733
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 6: you think there's a moral stand, it takes, take the

734
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,439
Speaker 6: damn stamp. You want to attack Saudi Arabia for their

735
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 6: enrollment in in in nine to eleven or uh kusogis

736
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 6: whatever is the name? Uh you got beheaded. There's all

737
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 6: kinds of moral stances you can take. But apply your

738
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 6: outrage consistently, you know, don't just reserve your outrage for

739
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 6: a handful of golfers. You know, just look at the

740
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 6: state departments position on on Saudi Arabia reads like Great

741
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:41,879
Speaker 6: Great Britain or Canada.

742
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 3: There's a long time alliance.

743
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 6: So if you want to email your your congressman denounce

744
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 6: the United States alliance with Saudi Arabia, don't just reserve

745
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:54,839
Speaker 6: your damn outrage for a few golfers. You know, in

746
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 6: a world where where as a general rule in a

747
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,720
Speaker 6: free market people acting in their own rational self interest,

748
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 6: I just thought that they were uniquely targeted in a

749
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,879
Speaker 6: very inappropriate way. And I think Brandon Shadley was at

750
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 6: the point of the spirit of that I didn't likings.

751
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,799
Speaker 4: That is how you end today's show.

Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know if people actually buy programs anymore,

775
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 4: things like that. I know they sell them, I don't

776
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 4: know how many people buy them, because all you need

777
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,360
Speaker 4: now is your phone to look up names and numbers

778
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 4: and all that stuff. But who will fan see in September,

779
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 4: starting in the Apple Cup on defense, New guys that

780
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 4: you think they'll be really impressed by.

781
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 7: Man, you know, who's going to be a starter. You know,

782
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 7: it's still early. Yeah, you know, the rest of the

783
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,479
Speaker 7: spring ball in the fall camp to sort of iron

784
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 7: that out. But you know, some of the younger guys

785
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 7: that have stood out, you know obviously Darren, Derek, Clemban, Brussa.

786
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,399
Speaker 7: You know, it looks like a looks like it looks

787
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 7: like a monster out there, just like you did in

788
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 7: on tape in high school. You know. T I is

789
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 7: another young guy up front that's you know physically I

790
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 7: can handle, you know, playing in the Big ten. Jaron Jones,

791
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,240
Speaker 7: the defensive back. You can can run, can play outside,

792
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 7: can play inside. In the slot. And then you know

793
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 7: a lot of the guys that we got from the

794
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,320
Speaker 7: transfer portal that we're counting on to play big minutes

795
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 7: for us. You know, they have been pleasant surprises and

796
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 7: have confirmed the things that we thought about them.

797
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 4: Yeah before we brought them in. Well, you guys last

798
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 4: year were tenth in the country in power for in

799
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 4: scoring if you take out the James Madison's and Western

800
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 4: missions and all that stuff. So I thought, just a

801
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 4: marvelous year for you guys in your number one for

802
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 4: you as the d C. But there's some changes, right,

803
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 4: there's no to Carrio Davis, there's no effesions price socks.

804
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 4: So the scheme that you played with those guys on

805
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 4: the back end, you know, those those guys on the

806
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 4: islands out there, can you continue to do what you

807
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 4: did schematically or does the personnel force you to make

808
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:50,319
Speaker 4: maybe some changes to your scheme?

809
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean obviously every year you're gonna have tweaks

810
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 7: and adjustments, you know, just in terms of evolving as

811
00:38:56,239 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 7: a as a coach, evolving as a roster yep, and

812
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 7: you know, evolving with the game. The game always changes.

813
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 7: And you know, even though we don't have those two guys.

814
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 7: You know, a lot of times, you know, only one

815
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 7: of those guys was available during the season, so right,

816
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 7: you know, we had to tweak real time during the

817
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 7: season as well, So it won't be too much different.

818
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 7: There'll be a couple of different variations, but very confident

819
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 7: with the guys that we have in the locker room.

820
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 4: Defensively, yeah, well, I asked Jet Fish he was with

821
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 4: us Ryan last week, and I said, what's the one

822
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 4: position group on this football team that you feel the

823
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 4: most confidence in? And I actually thought he was going

824
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 4: to say the offensive line. He didn't say the offensive line.

825
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 4: You want to guess what position group he was?

826
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 7: Linebacker?

827
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 4: Linebacker. That's you know.

828
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 3: I'm glad you guys are on the same page.

829
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 4: By the way, if you were just said something totally different,

830
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 4: we may have a problem.

831
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 3: Why do you agree with the coach on that?

832
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 7: You know, I think we got four guys that could

833
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 7: start at you know, any Big ten school. You know,

834
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 7: you look at the experience that that those guys have

835
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 7: coming back. All have played in meaningful games and competitive moments.

836
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,359
Speaker 7: And then you know Zager, you know, even though he's

837
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 7: a young guy, he started a couple of games at

838
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 7: the end of the year and and has hit the

839
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 7: ground running this spring. So I feel comfortable with any

840
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 7: any sort of combination of that group, and those guys

841
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,880
Speaker 7: have done a great job of of of answering the

842
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,879
Speaker 7: bill from a leadership standpoint defensively as well.

843
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 4: Ryan, you mentioned Coleman Brush. I'm just gonna call him

844
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 4: dc B. That's what I think. That's what I said. Good, Okay,

845
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 4: if you're good with it, I'm good with it. So obviously,

846
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 4: a highly decorated high school player, top recruit people expect

847
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 4: greatness now right off the bat with these kids. They

848
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 4: don't get to sit for a couple of years anymore

849
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 4: like they did back in the day. So what is

850
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 4: it about this guy that is special? What about him?

851
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 4: Am I am? I gonna love? Yeah?

852
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 7: I mean, obviously, from a physical attribute standpoint, he fits

853
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 7: the mold right, He's he's six y four and some change.

854
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,760
Speaker 7: He's you know, two ninety five. He's probably a cheeseburger

855
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 7: away from hitting three hundred pounds. And but from a

856
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 7: work ethic standpoint, I think is where he sort of

857
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 7: separates himself from his peers. The guy's got a high motor.

858
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 7: He's a football junkie, he's always you know, in extra

859
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 7: film sessions and working on his craft to try to

860
00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 7: get better and plays with with physicality and violence. You know,

861
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 7: you see him off the field and he's all smiles, yes, sir, no, sir, yes, ma'am, no, ma'am.

862
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 7: You know, please, thank you. But then you get on

863
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,720
Speaker 7: the field and he turns into a into an animal.

864
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 7: So that bowls well for his position for sure. And

865
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 7: you know, he continues to improve, Like you see mistakes

866
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 7: that he might have made, you know, on Tuesday. On Thursday,

867
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 7: you don't see those mistakes. And so that just tells

868
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 7: you that that he's he is getting better every day.

869
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 7: And yeah, that that is encouraging and exciting, you know,

870
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,240
Speaker 7: considering how much time we have until the season.

871
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,840
Speaker 4: Ryan, uh, I think there's a lot of people and

872
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 4: Ryan Walters with us UW DC by the way, that

873
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:54,439
Speaker 4: just assumed that guys like Cody Green on offense and

874
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,959
Speaker 4: Derek on defense are playing because it's a new era

875
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 4: in college football. Again, guys for a couple of years,

876
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 4: is DC be the kind of guy that even maybe

877
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 4: five ten years ago would have been challenging for playing

878
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 4: time as a freshman.

879
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 7: Absolutely, just because like you said, like I said earlier,

880
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:14,799
Speaker 7: just from a physical standpoint, he's already there, and that

881
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 7: is unique. He's only seventeen. He didn't turn eighteen until

882
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 7: the end of this month, and so to be to

883
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 7: be seventeen and able to do what he can do

884
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 7: with his body is pretty special.

885
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,760
Speaker 4: Well, Ryan Walters again with us UWDC here for Husky

886
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,240
Speaker 4: football spring ball, and I'm just looking at the numbers

887
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,399
Speaker 4: from last year, and look, they all look great, right,

888
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 4: But you're not going to go home and just say, hey.

889
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 3: We're good.

890
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 4: You know, we'll see in septemberly, no need to practice.

891
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 4: So what are maybe two or three things that you

892
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 4: want to really focus on in spring ball and improve

893
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 4: on in the next maybe a month and a half

894
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:44,360
Speaker 4: or so.

895
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, one of the things when we went

896
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 7: through ourself scout and just by nature of sort of

897
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 7: our personality defensively last season, you know, obviously the scoring

898
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 7: defense was was was in a good spot, but I

899
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 7: felt like we were we were in protective mode most

900
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,839
Speaker 7: of the time, you know what I mean. And this year,

901
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 7: I want to want to be on the hunt. We

902
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 7: want to be more aggressive. I want to generate more

903
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 7: negative yardage plays, more more turnovers, more takeaways, and so

904
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 7: that's been a point of emphasis, is how do we

905
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:20,360
Speaker 7: strategically be more aggressive while still limiting explosive plays and

906
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:21,919
Speaker 7: the limiting points that are on the board.

907
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:26,320
Speaker 4: Yeah. I'm seeing only one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

908
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 4: eight nine teams in Power for that were under three

909
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 4: yards of carry on defense. I want you to be

910
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 4: one of those teams.

911
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 7: Absolutely, you do that. That's the is the goal.

912
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 4: Yeah. Is it still in this conference stopping the run,

913
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 4: running the football, playing physical defense the front seven more

914
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 4: important than maybe it was in the old Pac twelve,

915
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 4: Pac ten back of the day. As long as we're

916
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 4: in the Big ten.

917
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:49,880
Speaker 7: Absolutely, I mean that it is the Big ten. The

918
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,359
Speaker 7: emphasis is on big You know, the guys that can

919
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 7: run the football and stop and run usually have success,

920
00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 7: and you know, you get a lot of really good

921
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,319
Speaker 7: coaching and the Big ten that sort of has more

922
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,880
Speaker 7: of an NFL mindset on game management and you know,

923
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 7: what are the best ways to win games, not necessarily

924
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 7: the best ways to score the most points. And so

925
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 7: the physicality and and the importance of being able to

926
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:18,760
Speaker 7: stop the run is still out a premium.

927
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, Ryan Walters again with us UWDC coach, before

928
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 4: you go, I want you to be our reporter on

929
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 4: the defensive side of the ball looking at the offensive

930
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 4: side of the ball. So one guy on the offensive

931
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 4: side of the ball, not named them on so take

932
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 4: demand out of it. Maybe a new guy whatever that

933
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,799
Speaker 4: you've seen that you are thanking God you don't have

934
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 4: to play against during the regular season.

935
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,400
Speaker 7: Yeah. I mean, the the offensive line has done a

936
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 7: really good job. You know, those guys work really well together.

937
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 7: They're they're big, and they're physical and and they don't

938
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,400
Speaker 7: make mistakes, you know. So I would say that group
