But we got a great show for you today. 74 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start talking about, of course, Travis Hunter going 75 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: to Jackson State. It's twenty twenty one. I'm gonna dive 76 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: into that. I don't know how the shocks really a 77 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,839 Speaker 1: lot of people with the way the season's been going, 78 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: and really parlay that into if you're fs you, it's 79 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: not a good look. Norvelle's doing a good job. You guys. 80 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: Think of the seventeenth ranked class right now on on 81 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: three we use on three's rankings. I'm going to talk 82 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: about that. Then bo Nicks joins us as well. Sixteen 83 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: right now, who is one signing day? None of people 84 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: are talking about Missouri. Not enough people are. And I'm 85 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: gonna tell you how many SEC teams are on the 86 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: top twenty five. And you wonder why, And I guess, 87 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: just more bias. I guess it's just another another wing 88 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: of the conspiracy that is how we out the SEC. 89 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: I guess all these players really aren't that good. It's 90 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: just bias. And then we're gonna take just a ton 91 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: of your questions. But and and shout out Booster Club, 92 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: the greatest grassroots movement since the theory of relativity, which 93 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: some people will challenge, still geting challenge to stay. I 94 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: have a few ideas. I'm not going to dive into 95 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: the theory. That'll be another one. It's a theory. It's theoretical, 96 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: not theatrical. It's theoretical. When need to make sure we 97 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 1: separate a little bit of okay, maybe a little bit 98 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: about them. I mean, if you know, if if Vans 99 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: or buds whatever. So I want to start with this 100 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: Travis Hunter news. We've had the craziest off the field 101 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: season that we've ever seen, in my opinion, one of 102 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: the craziest on the field as well. So the fact 103 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: that more crazy news is as the season, it just 104 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: the news keeps getting squeezed out like it's the end 105 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: of the toothpaste. Here in twenty twenty one, Like, wait 106 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: a minute, I swear there's more crazy news in it. 107 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: If you haven't heard, some places hap him as the 108 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: number one prospect, others at the number at the number two, 109 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 1: Travis Hunter flips from Florida State to Jackson State in 110 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: the HBCU. This story would be incredible if there was 111 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: not other connecting factors. But to quote Billy May's, wait 112 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: there's more. Dion Sanders is the head coach of Jacksonville State. 113 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: So what just happened and how you know we're probably 114 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: living in the matrix is that Dion primetime just intercepted 115 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: his own school and danced in the end zone on him. 116 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 1: That's what he did. Not only that, he went on 117 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: shows yesterday saying guess what tomorrow we break Twitter and 118 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: they almost did. This is to me number one. I 119 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: think it's great. Y'all know what I think about parody. 120 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,559 Speaker 1: I'm talking about whose lines in anyway, parody is good 121 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: for the sport and having HBCUs be relevant. Now you 122 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: see Prime going there and Eddie George and some of 123 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: you saw Hugh Jackson just take the Grambling State job. 124 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: And now in the days of nil guys, this is 125 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: this is what's gonna happen. You are gonna keep seeing surprises. 126 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: Now what Texas has done is not a surprise. They 127 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: went down to the vault said open it up. What 128 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 1: do we need the most? Sarks said offensive linemen and 129 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: you know what, defensive linemen. And they've dropped the bag 130 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: on him. But this is a different level and it 131 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: goes people are asking the question, and I want to 132 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: tack it from this angle. People you afford to State, 133 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: people that are burning Dion Sanders stuff like out in 134 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: the yard. Number one, he's not coaching. Afford to State, 135 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: y'all didn't hire him. Did his job. Yeah, he did 136 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: his job. And to me, I don't think there was 137 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: any malice and d almost like, you know what, I'm 138 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: gonna go after fu us guy. I think it just 139 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 1: worked out like that. But sorry, if you can't beat him. Again, 140 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: this is the same argument I make for the SEC. 141 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: I'm sorry it. Don't get upset. If you can't beat them, 142 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 1: then you can't look and say, oh, well, this is that, 143 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: this is that, this is that Dion Sanders did his job. 144 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: His job doesn't matter if you're in an ACU, if 145 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 1: you're in the SEC, the ACC NAIA doesn't matter. As 146 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 1: a recruiter, your job is to bring in the best 147 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: possible players, and really with NI also opened up different 148 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: ways to do it, but you still have to recruit 149 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: the guys. So when I look at this, the people 150 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: that number one say, oh, well, Florida State's stupid for 151 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: not hiring DL centers. It's one player, Okay, it's one player. 152 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: So so again we always talk about two things can 153 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: be true at once, right, this could be a huge 154 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: coup for Jackson State, which it is obviously very newsworthy 155 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: trend setting. He's going to be the first to really 156 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: have done this as such a high ranked prospect. But 157 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: on the other end, you don't. The pr hit is 158 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: what's the worse for Florida State because again they're not 159 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: recruiting bad. This one hurts obviously, it was your top guy. 160 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: But it's not like if they had thirty d commits. 161 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: So while you can be upset if you're a Forida 162 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: State fan and we're gonna talk about that, it's not 163 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: worth going nuts over. And you can't be mad at 164 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: somebody for doing their job. You're either knick Saman said, 165 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: you're either on the bus or in the way of 166 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: the bus. If you don't like it, well then you 167 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: know what, don't let him flip. That's part of it. 168 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: It's part of the deal. And people will say, oh, 169 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: it's this, it's nefarious. This wait, no, this is recruiting 170 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. So it's huge. It's a trendsetting deal. 171 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: It's a big deal. But you'll get overreactions from each side. 172 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: And the pr hit is what is the worst for 173 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: Florida State. You lose to Jacksonville State and then get 174 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: took by Jackson State. What did yob do to the Jacksons? 175 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 1: What did fs you do to him? So to me, 176 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: when you're always gonna have some overreactions on each end, 177 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: but I don't think you can overreact to Jackson State. 178 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: This is huge, giant. I'm surprised by this. I mean 179 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: it's Deon Sanders. Everything he's done, even as football careers, 180 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: is big. What he does is big, and Deon comfortable 181 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: player and being the coach and the kind of guy 182 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: Dean first of all. I mean, these kids look up 183 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: to him, the way he played the game, the flat 184 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,719 Speaker 1: and who he is. So I think you know this 185 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: is nothing new for Deon Sanders. No, look, I'm not. 186 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: I'm not as shocked as everybody else that Dion pulled 187 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: this off, especially since he you know, kind of did 188 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: some foreshadowing yesterday that something's going down. But you start 189 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: asking the question, Okay, all these ads are looking around 190 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: the country going look at this pr look at the 191 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: response to Dion Sanders. I think a lot of ads 192 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: are going to start taking a lot more consideration into 193 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: Dion Sanders the longer this goes on, because if he 194 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: can do it at Jackson State, don't give him an army. 195 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: So that was my question to you, how many more 196 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: seasons is Dion at Jackson State? Well, Deon's had a 197 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: lot of great quotes about why you went there and 198 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: what he wanted to accomplish. And I'm not going to 199 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: sit here and act like I can speak for what 200 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: he's going to do. Dion doesn't need money, Dion doesn't 201 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 1: need fame. I don't know if Dion is in I 202 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: know he's competitive obviously, how competitive is he with it? 203 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: Is he gonna stay at Jackson State and try and 204 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: build them up in Cuba a fourteen style? Or is 205 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: he gonna say you know what? I feel like, I 206 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: don't need to just walk in an athletic commercial and 207 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: look at Nick Saban say how do I get one 208 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 1: those jackets? I'm gonna go take one those jackets. Competitor, 209 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't ever sleep. And again I can't 210 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: speak to his state of minor what he's gonna do. 211 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: I can't. I wouldn't sit here and pretend. But Dion's 212 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: as competitive as it gets. And you know he's looking 213 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: out here now in this space and saying, wait, a 214 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 1: lot of head coaches have a lot of name recognition, 215 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: and I know he doesn't need money, but you look 216 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: at those salaries and it's only getting bigger and bigger. 217 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 1: And with the n il deals that could happen with 218 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: Dion Sanders, I'm talking about just don not even the 219 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: players that he could bring to a place. You talk 220 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: about bringing excitement, to a place. But most importantly you 221 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: talk about selling tickets. There's no hurting at the gate 222 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: on this one. Now. To me, it's getting to the point, 223 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: especially with the way this storm has been and with 224 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: the success that Jackson State will continue to have With Don, 225 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: there is one of two things. How far does Don 226 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: want to go with this head coaching thing? And I'm 227 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: not saying Jackson State can't be dominant HREBCU there already 228 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: are on the path of that. Does he want to 229 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: go take over at a power of five? Does he 230 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: want to go head to head with the Nick Saban, 231 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: with the Lane Kiffin, with the Mario Cristo Ball, with 232 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: the Dabo Sweeney. I can't answer that, but I'll tell 233 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: you what. The man grinded to be the best at 234 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: his craft, in my opinion, the best dB there ever was. 235 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you could say Ed Reid, you could say 236 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: Champ Bailey, a couple. I know I'm forgetting some of 237 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: the older guys, but it's just how far does Don 238 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: want to go with it? That conversation was had between 239 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: him and Travis Hunter and his family, I guarantee you 240 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: had to be My dad was having those conversations. But again, 241 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: asking Bobby Patrino, I've heard you might go to the NFL. 242 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: How long are you going to be here? That conversation 243 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: was had, and now with you're able to transfer without 244 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: any question to me, I wonder if you're like, well, look, 245 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: it's I must wonder how many, and I'm not saying 246 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: this has happened with this, how many recruiting visits have 247 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: been like listen, yes, number one, I'm here. You know 248 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: I'm here. But if I signed you and you sound 249 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: you want to come play for me? Because it comes 250 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: down That's why I always tell recruits pick the school, 251 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 1: not the coach. The coach should be an ad on 252 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: to the ice cream. It shouldn't be the ice cream 253 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: because you've got to be there for four years too, 254 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: and there's no guarantee that And a lot of coaches 255 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 1: have sat in living rooms and said, I promise I'll 256 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: be here. Oh yeah, I promise you. I promise you. 257 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: I promise that the baby in the crib and the 258 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 1: dog that I'm gonna be here. The all a sudden 259 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 1: two weeks later, Wow, nine point five million a year. 260 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: So I'm very interesting how those conversations work their way 261 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: into recruiting. With the portal the way it is n 262 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: N I L. I'm not saying that this is not 263 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: down for the long haul for Jackson State. I'm just 264 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 1: saying it makes a decision like this easier when you 265 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: know you could jump to a big school at any moment, 266 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: rather than like when we were playing you have to 267 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: sit out. Yeah, that's it. You got to pay the price, 268 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: and you got to think, if you're Travis Hunter, this 269 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: is double smart. Not only did you do it, you 270 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: were really the first one. Yeah, so it's twofold one. 271 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: You're gonna get most of the pub and the press 272 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: out of anybody that does this, but number two, you've 273 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: set the precedent. Now the next guy is like, wow, 274 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: I saw him do it. I've seen somebody do it, 275 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: so I can do it now. It won't be is that. 276 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: All you need is to just get through that barrier 277 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: and you did today. Yep, And that's where you're gonna keep. 278 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: You say one more point. You know, most of the times, 279 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: even if you're a number one, number two overall recruit, 280 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,439 Speaker 1: you still need to develop at the collegiate level. You 281 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: may think that you're a sure fire for the NFL, 282 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: but you need to develop so a lot of times 283 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: when you make a choice like this, you may miss 284 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: out on playing for some of the brightest coaches in 285 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: the country, right can help you develop. In this case, 286 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: you're going to play for maybe the greatest corner of 287 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 1: all time. I mean, this kid's not gonna miss a 288 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: beat in terms of development to the next level. No, 289 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: without a doubt. And again the connections, and there's no 290 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: telling but blame. What's the boosher club say? I got 291 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: a question from Mike and m Housetag asked, shay Boy, 292 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: is Dion playing forty chest to get Norvelle fired so 293 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: he can take over at FSU and bring his jackson 294 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: stay recruiting class with him when he comes. I don't 295 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: think it's that deep. I think Dion's doing what Dion does. 296 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: Like I don't think he has to do that Norvelle. 297 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: You're either gonna win or lose like he can't. Dion 298 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: can't control whether Mike Norvelle does good at for to 299 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: State or not. One players not gonna do that exactly. 300 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: So now we're talking about nine guys like then you're 301 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: starting to affect the outcome. But I don't think there 302 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: was any sitting behind in a smoky room, like, Hey, 303 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: you know how we could really screw Norvelle. Let's you'll 304 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: get Travis hun He was trying to take recruits from 305 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: every school. It just happened to fall on Florida State, 306 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: which is irony in itself. It's the matrix. What else 307 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: I've got something from Tony Bradford. I'm a former director 308 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: of on campus recruiting at Fresno State, so I'm interested 309 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: to know y'all's take on this. Yeah, he said hashtag 310 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: as Jay Boy. Do you believe that the NIL is 311 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: making pay to play more visible and acceptable, plus the 312 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: craziness of the portal will help close the popularity gap 313 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: between college football and the NFL? Number one, A great question. 314 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: Number two, Yes, and here's why. Now we know the 315 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: NFL is the most popular sport in the United States. 316 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: We know that, but with college football, with some with 317 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: the changes that we are seeing, you are seeing it 318 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: more in the news and more in the news, and 319 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: even more important, the gap between college and the NFL. 320 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: It's like that honeyhol the Senior Bowl, right where you 321 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: get it together, and you're starting to see it now. 322 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: With NIL deals, players will will come off more like 323 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: professional athletes. And to me, I think you'll have more 324 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: people that attack two players as opposed to universities. Now, 325 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: is that great for the health of college football depends 326 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: on if you're the one that's looking at how much 327 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: money it creates or if you're benefiting financially from it. Obviously, 328 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: if you're a corporate sponsor of college football or whatever, 329 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: it's going to benefit you. Is it going to benefit 330 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: somebody just sits on the couch and watches college football 331 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: because they love it every Saturday. No, it's two different arguments. 332 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: One is increasing the popularity and catching more of an audience, 333 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: and two is keeping the purity somewhat of the game 334 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: that makes it so much more enjoyable in my opinion 335 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: than the NFL. Those are the two opposing things. On 336 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: one hand, you could have something that is great for 337 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: reach and is great for financial benefits and continues to 338 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: make these stadiums better in the experience better, and that's great. 339 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: But on the other hand, why is one of the 340 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: reasons that college football fans are that college football fans, 341 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: in my opinion, are more invested in college football as 342 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: a whole than NFL fans are in the NFL's whole 343 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: because of that hometown field. It's that more local flavor. 344 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 1: The further you get away from that, the more you 345 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: risk that. Now, does that mean it dies in popularity? Know, 346 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: because guess what, people that love college football like me 347 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: are gonna watch it anyway. There's really there's no circumstance 348 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: outside of something crazy that would make me say, you 349 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: know what, I am not watching college football. So you're 350 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 1: either on the financial argument side of it and the 351 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 1: reach and making it more popular, which you could say 352 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: is a good thing. Are you're totally on the side 353 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: of we want to keep the purity in it. This 354 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: is turning into the NFL. This is a problem to me. 355 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: The answer is always somewhere in the middle in what's 356 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: best for college football. But that wasn't your question. Your 357 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 1: question was about closing the gap in popularity in the NFL, 358 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: and is that really the best thing for college football 359 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: from the standpoint that we love it. We already see 360 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,880 Speaker 1: the balls losing significance. You see parts of the game 361 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: that are starting to kind of lose significance now, you know, 362 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 1: with the ability to move freely, I mean, we talk 363 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 1: about freedom of movement in basketball, it's more prevalent right 364 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: now in recruiting. You look at the transfer portal. It 365 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: is turning into free agency, and you have some people 366 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: that like it. You know, some people that won't like it. 367 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: But I guarantee you people watch, and I guarantee you 368 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: people get excited when that big time quarterback transfers of 369 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: their school. It's all about who goes where. But that 370 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: was a great question. What else we got? Yeah, my 371 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: question jar from justin counts hashtag asked Jay Boy. He says, 372 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: which coach with which coach with their first class at 373 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 1: their new gig? To this point, has hashtag won the 374 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: water cooler of recruiting new gigs in the SEC are 375 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: a new gig? You know, there's there's a name I'm 376 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: gonna throw in their Josh Hypele to me, Tennessee. I 377 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:33,239 Speaker 1: think they're ten on rivals. Now. I just got an 378 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: update Scarier and I y'all know me, and I'm not 379 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: gonna sit up here and say that I said something 380 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 1: that I didn't. I was very interested to see how 381 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 1: this Josh Hypel situation worked out because of the way 382 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 1: that ncaa cloud that is hanging over Tennessee. But it 383 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: is not having a big effect. I mean they're doing 384 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: a really good I mean, you got Justin Williams. You 385 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 1: go down the list and all Tennessee needs and I've 386 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: said it and I've said it. I've said it is 387 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: that spark. They're one of those spark schools. And I'm 388 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: not talking about the drink are the rating system. Tennessee 389 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,959 Speaker 1: can get hot and then get hot in recruiting really quickly. 390 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: So Josh Hypel is one. Lincoln Riley obviously, you know 391 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: what usc it does. What it is, Billy Napier getting 392 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: Kamari Wilson, that was big Forida has been down. I 393 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: think there were seventy seven and I'd tell people in 394 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 1: Florida not to panic. But out of the new coach, 395 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: I know, Mario Christobald just lended a four star defensive 396 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: lineman from you know down there, which that's what he's 397 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 1: gonna do. They're gonna build a fence around that place. 398 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:27,439 Speaker 1: I go ahead and tell you. So there's a lot 399 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: of suprillars for a lot of them. Brian Harson and 400 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 1: what Brian Harson and Auburn are doing after everybody left 401 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: them for dead. Everybody left Auburn for dead. Brian Harson 402 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 1: can't recruit this that and the other. You can from 403 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 1: boys this, that and the other. We'll look what they're 404 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: doing right now. I mean they're what top fifteen right 405 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: now close somewhere around there. I mean they were they 406 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 1: were lagging in the back. I mean they were back 407 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: there with Vanderbilt. And we're gonna get into what the 408 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: SEC is doing in recruiting. But you're looking around Shane b. Beemer, 409 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 1: what he's done in the portal, the excitement around that 410 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: place and in the high school. I mean, there's a 411 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: lot of guys. Those are just a few, but you're seeing. 412 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 1: What you're seeing is to me, and you look at 413 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: A and M. Even though Jimbo is not new, what 414 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 1: you're seeing is is some new teams, you know, some 415 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: new momentum being grabbed. That's what it's about. It's recruiting, 416 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 1: development and culture. We talk about it all the time 417 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: on the show. And it's tough to get development when 418 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: you don't have good players, and the culture doesn't matter 419 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, if you don't have 420 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: guys that can go win. If you're just trying to win, 421 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: which is what most of these guys are doing, cultures 422 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't able to put you over the top cultures. What's 423 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: ingrained in you and what helps sustain you? So to me, 424 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: I think Josh Hippel's doing an amazing job too. What else? 425 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: We got a questionnaire from Carson Howard hashtag asked Jay 426 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: Boy Carson, you were putting all your stock in either Florida, 427 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: Miami or Florida State over the next five years, who 428 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: would you pick and why? Especially now with the Hunter 429 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: flip and the FSU offensive coordinator leaving. I would go Miami. 430 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: I would go Miami for a couple of reasons. I 431 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: believe in Mario Christobal. Some don't, but they're in the ACC. 432 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: I can make it pretty simple for you. Billy's gonna 433 00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 1: do a good job at Florida. It's gonna take him 434 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 1: some time time too. Florida fans have to be patient. 435 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,640 Speaker 1: People forget how long comes and waited on Dabbo. People 436 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: forget Nick Saban lost a Laman Row. I mean, yeah, 437 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 1: I can go down the list. You gotta give guys time. Now, 438 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: you can say, and I've said with the portal, you 439 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: can flip it a lot faster. But I would put 440 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 1: it on Mario because you're in the ACC. I know 441 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 1: you can recruit I know you can recruit up front 442 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: and right now they sec I mean wide open spaces. 443 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 1: I mean whoever whatever dog's gonna roam in there and 444 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 1: take it is gonna do it in the next two years. 445 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,679 Speaker 1: And they better hope it's all three of them. They 446 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: better hope all three of them are good and all 447 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: tho even can be good. But if I'm gonna take money, 448 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: if I'm gonna go in under my mattress and take 449 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: money out and I'm gonna throw it on somebody, I'm 450 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: gonna throw it on Mario and the team in the ACC. 451 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: Now you say, oh, Florida States in the ACC, I'm 452 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: gonna take Mario out of those two. All right, one 453 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: more and then I want to get to a little 454 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: bit more of this Sporida State stuff. I gotta question. 455 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: You're from Logan Durban. What's up, Logan hash Ash Shay 456 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: Boys fan? All righty, he wants to know what do 457 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 1: you think of the job Billy Napier is doing and recruiting? 458 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: Right now? Okay, we we talk about when in the 459 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,959 Speaker 1: water cooler, right being smart fans, tell me the name, 460 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: Tell me the name who asked the question? Logan Logan, 461 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate the question. Brother, Here's what I will say. 462 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 1: We have to understand that every job and the timing 463 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: is not the same. Every circumstance is different. This is 464 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: probably one of the biggest things when I'm talking to people, 465 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: even on social media through the DM. Everybody, when you 466 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: get a new car, wants it to go out and 467 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 1: go one hundred miles an hour. But every circumstance is different. 468 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: What Billy inherited at Florida was a momentum and trajectory 469 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,120 Speaker 1: going down Georgia, going up Tennessee, going up a ton 470 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: of the east and west going up, and he's having 471 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 1: to flip it around really quick. And look at when 472 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 1: he got hired, so he's already behind the eight ball. 473 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: When he gets hired, you're already losing momentum. So really, 474 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: what you want is to serve and I don't mean 475 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: this with a negative connotation. You just want to survive 476 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: signing day and get some add ons, some you didn't expect. 477 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to go out there and get some 478 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: some three stars. You're gonna have to go out there 479 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: and take some chances on guys. But they got Kamari Wilson. 480 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,400 Speaker 1: I believe they've had some good news rolling in. What 481 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: Billy is going to bring to you, isn't ah flip 482 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: the light switch on? How about this? We're the best 483 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: team in the country. What he's gonna do is say, 484 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: you know what, we are going to build this thing 485 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,880 Speaker 1: the right way. I still think we can win now, 486 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: but we have to be smart, we have to be efficient, 487 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: and we have to understand where we are going, not 488 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: where we are at. And he's talked about that, talked 489 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: about look at the result. We don't have to sit 490 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: here and discuss the plan tomorrow, the next day, whatever. 491 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: We've got that down.

I don't think Billy goes 525 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 1: and works out at curves like like Zach Galfanakis on 526 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: the Campid.

And 530 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get the question you're from Drew Greason crazy 531 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: Drew Booster club ogst one with the SEC having all 532 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: but two teams taking my thunder and the top twenty 533 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: five class rankings is SEC buy is still? Did you 534 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: plant that question in there? No? I did not plan 535 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: it that one. You know. I like to use this 536 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: quote at times like this. I think we've all seen 537 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:08,239 Speaker 1: the great masterpiece, major pain, cinematical, just marvelous masterpiece. He 538 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: has a quote in there where he bites the grenade 539 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: and throws it and then he looks in the camera 540 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: and he goes, who's the down man? Now? This is 541 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,239 Speaker 1: so again, and I don't want to stick too long 542 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: on this must be some more bias. I can't wait 543 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: to hear Emmanuelcho when these guys get up talking about 544 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: how wait a minute, we just put some limon juice 545 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,880 Speaker 1: on the backload declaration independence and it turns out none 546 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: of these players are as good as what they say 547 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: the class rankings. There's you know, you don't need to 548 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: go find a horcrux to figure this one out or 549 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 1: change it. It's like, man, please now, now another one? 550 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,360 Speaker 1: What DJ kal would say, another one? So this is why, 551 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: this is why followed the bouncing balls. Anyway, next question, 552 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: I'm loving the Booster club right now. We got another 553 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: question from Michael Hornbeck has second ask Jay, I'm all 554 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 1: in for Auburn if CBH, which should believe means coach 555 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: Brian Harson, I believe you can get a top ten 556 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: in class but doesn't get a significant offensive line recruits. 557 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: Is it still a success? Depends on the portal because 558 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 1: if you're an Auburn fan and I don't want I'm 559 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: not trying to take anything away from what's going on. 560 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: They're doing a great job. We've seen Auburn sign big 561 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: time wide receivers in DBS and linebackers before this will 562 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: come down to who you sign up front. That's going 563 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: to determine your success there. It is, am I oversimplifying it. No, 564 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: not even close to me. If Auburn performs well in 565 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: the portal on the offensive line standing, oh standing, Oh, 566 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: you guys did everything you could do. If they don't 567 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 1: and the portal, and now I do want to say, 568 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 1: it's the portals like ongoing. This isn't like national portal 569 00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: signing Day, but you got to get somewhere signing day, ongoing. Yeah, 570 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: this is unofficial. This is unofficial, so the portal will 571 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: keep yielding players. But if you add that, and that's 572 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 1: why somebody is going to get smart at one of 573 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: these recruiting services and come up with an algorithm that 574 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: combines the composite ranking. They may already do it. I 575 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: don't know. I know two four seven has a transferportal ranking, 576 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 1: then the other ones have your high school ranking. There 577 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 1: needs to be like a composite of the two. So 578 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 1: all right, we finished ninth in the transferportal ranking. We 579 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: finished fourth in the high school recruiting ranking. We got 580 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: the seven and a half best class. I don't know, 581 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: whatever the math checks out. They don't pay me to 582 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,879 Speaker 1: do that. But that needs to be taking the account. 583 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,479 Speaker 1: But if they can get offensive Lineman, it is a 584 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: grand slam. Jorge so Layer, I think that ball landed 585 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: in Dallas type home run. You want another one? Yeah? 586 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: All right? Question here from Maurice Brown hashtag assjay boy. 587 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: He says, with fin aging and maturing in the SEC, 588 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: eventually secure the Alabama job when Saban leaves out of 589 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: all Savans assistance. I believe Saban has had that convo 590 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: with him. It's his conspiracy theory. Look you number one. 591 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: I appreciate the question, and I appreciate you having that theory. 592 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: Here's my theory. I don't think Lane wants the Alabama job. 593 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: I don't think that's a good fit. I don't think 594 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: you can go from the way that Saban runs things 595 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: and that model to the way that Lane does it. 596 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: It's just to me that that that that doesn't blend. 597 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: I think the next coach to Alabama, and I've said 598 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: this was gonna be Mario. The only team that could 599 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: keep him away is Mama, and he's with Mama. Now 600 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna see how much you love Mama if Alabama 601 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: comes here in three four years and Miami's doing good enough. 602 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: We're gonna see how much mama means well. It's gonna 603 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: be like that scene on Airbud when he has to 604 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: choose between the kid and the clown. We're gonna find out. 605 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: This is how I felt with Dabo and Alabama. That's 606 00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: his mama. But Alma, can you hire dab all right now? 607 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: If you're a lot of Alabama fans and then a 608 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,479 Speaker 1: lot of them, a lot of a lot of them, 609 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: don't what's going on now? And guess what we're gonna 610 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: find I'm telling you, and I think Clemson's fine, but 611 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 1: we're in uncharted waters with Dabo in them, him having 612 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: to bring in new guy. We're gonna see this is 613 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 1: the band broke the chance, this is his opportunity. You 614 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: had a great band, Yes, you had an unbelievable band, 615 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: Beatles unbelievable. George gone for sure, George gone ringo, man, 616 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: I'm out mine, you know whatever. I think that was 617 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: more Jamaican accent. But now we're gonna see how you know, 618 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: how how do you get new bandmas? If he can, 619 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: it's gonna look good. It's gonna look really good. And 620 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: then I would understand the stuff more Tobama, but right now, 621 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you remember last week when people were like, 622 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: since Clemson is falling apart, like we have questions, that's 623 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: already out. It's like with Debo's program crumbling around him. 624 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: This is what Alabama's done to people. They think you're 625 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: supposed to win it every year. It's exactly right. Well, 626 00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: you let him sip it from the cup of this. 627 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 1: All right, I do want to talk.

What kind of went into it, what 647 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: was kind of the final factor and how do you 648 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: feel right now after making the announcement. Well, like you said, 649 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: it was, um one of the toughest things I've had 650 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: to do. UM, just because simply for my love for 651 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 1: Auburn and how badly I wanted to be at Auburn. 652 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: And um, that's why I came to Auburn in the 653 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: first place, UM, my freshman year, and and I knew 654 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: that growing up I couldn't pass up on the dream 655 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: of playing at the school that I always wanted to 656 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: play at. And so once I played there, um and 657 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: and graduated, UM, I really fulfilled my dreams and all 658 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: I wanted to do. Unfortunately, if we have it our way, 659 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 1: and if anybody could have their own way, they'd say 660 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: they want to win a championship and get all these 661 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: awards and whatever, but that very rarely happens, goes to 662 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 1: your fairy tale ending. UM. But I did what I 663 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: wanted to do. I accomplished my goal. UM. I got 664 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: UM my diploma from Auburn, and so I can say 665 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: I've graduated UM from essentially the best university UM ever 666 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: and that's essentially where I wanted to go and do 667 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: that and that's where I fulfilled my dreams at and UM. 668 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 1: So now I'm just kind of in that situation to 669 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: where UM UM I can kind of pick and decide 670 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: what I want to do next. And UM that's kind 671 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: of valuable in the day and age that we're in. 672 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: And UM. Obviously my goals and dreams are to UM 673 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: to be an NFL player, and so in order to 674 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: UM to do that, UM, just with certain situations come up, 675 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: I feel like I can go and do that UM 676 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 1: at another place. And because I graduated from Auburn, I 677 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: do fulfill. I do think that I fulfilled my UM. 678 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: Kind of my problem is to myself and and UM, 679 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: I finished the job at Auburn, and I got it 680 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: UM finished in three years and so normally that's quick, 681 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: but it's just kind of set me up to do 682 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: other things and and bow to the separation. It seems 683 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: like it was pretty amicable. Again, there's gonna be people 684 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: that have rumors of crazy stuff and this, that and 685 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 1: the other. Was it just at the end of the day, 686 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: it was best for both parties, or in your opinion, 687 00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: for you just to move on and go somewhere else. Alutely, 688 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: I think, um, you know, there's been a lot of 689 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: transitions at Auburn, and um, I really do think that 690 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: they're going to have great success under coach Harson. And 691 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: it had nothing to do with Bow or a coach 692 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: or Bou with the team or anything like that. Like 693 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: our team, Auburn's gonna be set up to do some 694 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 1: really good things. I just feel like it's best if 695 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: if I kind of move on and go start over 696 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,839 Speaker 1: somewhere new, Um, because three years in the same place, 697 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 1: it is a long time and it can kind of 698 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: get tedious and stuff like that, and I think everyone 699 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: was just ready for a new start. Yeah. And Bo Also, 700 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 1: you know, going into this decision, you look at your 701 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 1: future and project out there. I mean, you know, I'm 702 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: asking you to spill it, you know, on the air, 703 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: But do you have a few schools in mind that 704 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 1: you've already kind of looked at. Is the process going 705 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: really slow right now? And what are some attributes that 706 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: this new place needs to have or are there certain 707 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: things that you're looking for. Obviously being a guy that 708 00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: can come in and wants to play, you want to 709 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 1: play in the NFL, you need to continue to get 710 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: tape kind of how's that process? Well, I think when 711 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,959 Speaker 1: you when you look at it from afar, the main 712 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: thing is is to go somewhere that needs a quarterback, um, 713 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: and and can kind of make ends meet to what 714 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: a great team is going to look like. You know, Um, 715 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,760 Speaker 1: I'm excited to go and find a new team that 716 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: that is UM just eager to continue to have success. 717 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 1: And UM, I would like to go into a place 718 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: to where UM I mean, like I said, they're they're 719 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: just missing a quarterback to the piece of the puzzle 720 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: for them to be really good. So with that being said, 721 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: it's not everywhere. Not everywhere it needs a quarterback. UM. 722 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: There's a lot of places out there with great quarterbacks, 723 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: and then there's a lot of guys that are about 724 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: to land um great quarterbacks. A lot of guys like 725 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 1: me in the transfer portal that are that are good 726 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: and going to go and play somewhere. So a lot 727 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 1: of factors go into it. But I just want to 728 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: go somewhere where, UM, I can have an impact on 729 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: my team. UM. I want to go somewhere that, UM 730 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: not only can I have success, but I can bring 731 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,399 Speaker 1: UM success to the guys around me and help those 732 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: guys succeed. UM. I just want to go make a 733 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 1: team better wherever that may be. UM. And but like 734 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 1: I said, obviously I have narrowed some places down because 735 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: certain places don't need a quarterback, so I can already 736 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 1: kind of put them out and and say no to themselves. 737 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: And that door's kind of closed automatically. And so just 738 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,360 Speaker 1: continue to take it slow. UM. I'm not necessarily in 739 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: a huge hurry. UM since I've already graduated, and UM, 740 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: I can just kind of take my time and make 741 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,279 Speaker 1: sure I go to the place that's a right fit. 742 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: Does conference matter at all? I mean, you've been in 743 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: the SEC, You've played at the highest level. Disconference matter 744 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: at all? I think if you look into it deeper, 745 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: competition has quite to do UM with it. UM. I 746 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 1: think that I've kind of shown and proven that I 747 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: can play the SEC against great competition and succeed in 748 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 1: that situation. And UM, so it doesn't necessarily mean that 749 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,800 Speaker 1: I have to stay in the SEC. I'm not like, UM, 750 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 1: I happen like whatever happens. It's essentially more about the 751 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: school than of the schedule when we go to play 752 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. It's kind of the situation. UM, 753 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: I could play in the SEC, I could not. It 754 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily matter to me. UM. Obviously, I believe playing 755 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 1: in the SEC. The SEC is a little more difficult UM. 756 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: And it is tougher because the weekend a week out, 757 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,800 Speaker 1: especially in the SEC West. UM. And that's where Auburn. 758 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: That's why Auburn's so tough. It is because we had 759 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 1: the hardest UM schedule usually UM. Especially for the last 760 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: three seasons, we've had a very very difficult schedule. And 761 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,359 Speaker 1: so moving forward, UM, I wouldn't say that has a 762 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: bunch to do with it, But the SEC West is 763 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: a tougher league, UM, And so say it is a 764 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: place outside of the SEC West, UM, it won't be 765 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: as tough and grueling of a season. Yeah, and it 766 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 1: just got a couple more for you. It's exactly right. 767 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: I mean that you got the AFC, the NFC and 768 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: the SEC. You know how I feel about that. But 769 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 1: I think you agree with me there. But you talked 770 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 1: about the timeline. You know it's something where it's a 771 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 1: big decision. I know it takes time, but you have 772 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 1: like like a stop data. I need to have a 773 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: decision by then by here are you just taking it 774 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:14,240 Speaker 1: as it goes? I'm taking it as it goes, UM, 775 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 1: because I don't want to rush. This is the most 776 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: important decision of my life thus far, and so I 777 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 1: don't want to rush you. But at the same time, 778 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: I want to, UM go ahead and know so I 779 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: can start reaching out to to some people and making 780 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: connections and and hit the ground running once I get 781 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:32,280 Speaker 1: there and UM start when they start their UM second 782 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 1: semester of the year, UM. And so I really want 783 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: to go into this UM offseason UM with confidence and 784 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,399 Speaker 1: knowing where I'm gonna go, and and that probably UM 785 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: we'll just make the transition a little easier and so 786 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: the sooner the better. But like I said, I'm not 787 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,919 Speaker 1: in I'm not gonna make a very rushed decision UM 788 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: and end up in a place may not be the 789 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 1: best for me. Definitely, and uh, you know, I'm sure 790 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna have your back, have you back on the 791 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 1: show as it gets from this process. But I say 792 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: the most important question for las Bow everybody wants to 793 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,399 Speaker 1: know this. I mean getting blown up about it. Even 794 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 1: if you're not at Auburn, will you still be focused 795 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: and having fun? Absolutely, that's one of the thing. It 796 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: started out as a joke, but I think that those 797 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:22,799 Speaker 1: two things for me are pretty important. You know, it 798 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 1: started out as a joke. I didn't have anything to 799 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 1: do with it. But as it went, focused on what 800 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 1: you're doing, focused on where you're at, focused on the 801 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,479 Speaker 1: people that are around you. Having an impact on those 802 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: people is extremely important. And when you're focused, usually you 803 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 1: can lock out the distractions, block out the distractions, excuse me, 804 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 1: and you know, taking the moment and have fun in 805 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 1: the moment. And then the next part is just having 806 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,759 Speaker 1: fun wherever whatever you're doing. Having fun is the best 807 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: alternative because that means you're not stressed or anxious about 808 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: what you're doing, and you're confident in it and you 809 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: can just have a good time. And you know, we're 810 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,719 Speaker 1: only on this earth for for a quick second.

We only did five. 853 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 1: There's been a lot of good ones. We mentioned a lot, 854 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 1: all right. Are we starting with five? Are we starting 855 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 1: with one? We can start however you want, man, let's 856 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,839 Speaker 1: start with five. Let's start with five. Number five, top 857 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:16,439 Speaker 1: five winners of National Signing Day? Yes, uj, look jam 858 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 1: bammer on here. Okay, for obvious reasons. They're doing what 859 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 1: they normally do. They're doing what we expected them to do. 860 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: But it's also so good that they have to be 861 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 1: one of the five winners on signing Day. Georgia continuing 862 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: to sign and stack big time classes and then we'll 863 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: continue to be in the national narrative for a national championship, 864 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: SEC championship moving forward. So number five, think we can 865 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 1: pretty much agree there. Number four bam Bama, same thing, 866 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 1: balling number one class right now? Are they going to 867 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 1: finish number one? We'll see still some stuff left out there. 868 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 1: They're doing exactly like Georgia what they typically do and 869 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: cleaning up where they need to, very surgical. Got Curtis Perry, guy, 870 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 1: A lot of people thought Auburn had a chance to 871 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 1: get Nick Saman closed on him late. So that's number 872 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: four is bamma. Now we get into it. Now, let's 873 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 1: here we go, put the gloves on, let's get in here, 874 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 1: and let's get surgical number three. Cone, who is it? 875 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 1: Tajas the Longhorn? Texas three? Listen, did you buy your 876 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 1: way there? Well? Hell, who doesn't? Who does to get there? Somehow? 877 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 1: Had to get there somehow. Texas having a really good 878 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,879 Speaker 1: class up front, trying to say the same thing about 879 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 1: A and M. That's where the difference is made. That's 880 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:21,799 Speaker 1: what's gonna help start the most. We can talk about 881 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and this, that and the other. Quinn yours is great. 882 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 1: All this stuff's great. If you can't run and you 883 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 1: can't protect them, and you can't rush the paster and 884 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 1: stop the run, it doesn't matter. Sounds like they're preparing 885 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: for the sec Yes, it sounds like Texas made a decision. 886 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 1: We're just gonna put the money out there. We'll see 887 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. There's no guardrails right now, because so 888 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: if you're gonna throw the paper, now, it's the time 889 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 1: to throw the paper. And they are tumors cornering the 890 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 1: paper right now. Out to everybody. Kelvin Banks, you can 891 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 1: go down the list, but that's how you flip your program. 892 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: Flip this house right. And if the culture problem was 893 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: as bad as they made it seem the last few 894 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:54,959 Speaker 1: weeks of that season, in terms of the guys being 895 00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 1: inherited time, what's the best way to do that? Get 896 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 1: the guys in who ruit so Texas doing a really 897 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,760 Speaker 1: good job. Number two, we're staying in the state of Texas. 898 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 1: A and M. There's the only reason I can't put 899 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: them number one is the reason you guys all think 900 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 1: who is number one is number one? But Texas A 901 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,399 Speaker 1: and M to me, has had the best recruiting year 902 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 1: of anybody, and BAM and Georgia have been doing this 903 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,839 Speaker 1: for so long it's it's almost the boy who Cried 904 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 1: Wolf now like we can they're always going to be 905 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 1: great classes. We know that it's expected. A and M. 906 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:31,359 Speaker 1: We talked about breaking that barrier a little bit right, 907 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 1: has started to position themselves into that tier of being 908 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,320 Speaker 1: able to go get the top people at every position, 909 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: including the offensive line and defensive line. And once you 910 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 1: crack that barrier. And I think Jimbo is a good 911 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 1: coach and has really good coaches there, But you don't 912 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: have to be the Stephen Hawking of schematics. When you 913 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 1: have as good of players as everybody, or better than everybody, 914 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 1: you are giving yourself a chance in every game by 915 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 1: bringing in this type of class. So to Texas, A 916 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,359 Speaker 1: and M is really the newcomer of the year. He's 917 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 1: starting to stack them. And that's the difference. Stack them. 918 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 1: It's not about one class, it's about three classes. You 919 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 1: can't graduate your freshman year exactly. You can't graduate your 920 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 1: freshman year. It's the same thing in recruiting. And you 921 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 1: get those guys there and you keep them. That's how 922 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: you build the machine that we are watching spit out 923 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 1: NFL players like a Pez dispenser at Georgia and Alabama 924 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,439 Speaker 1: and some of these other places Ohio State. That's how 925 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 1: you do it. You can't build the machine without the parts. 926 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: The players are the parts. You get them moving in 927 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 1: the direction you want, the culture that you want, and 928 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,319 Speaker 1: you keep bringing them in because guess what, it's good 929 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 1: business to go play at places that win and get 930 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 1: you in the NFL. It's good business. That's what this 931 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 1: comes down to. Number one, speaking about good business, biggest 932 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: news of the day. You know, you have to tell 933 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 1: me this one. Jackson State. Jackson State by getting Travis 934 00:45:53,400 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 1: Hunter broke totally new ground, precedent set, trend set. This 935 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:03,800 Speaker 1: is the biggest story in recruiting. It's the biggest surprise 936 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 1: in recruiting we've ever seen. And you've seen some big ones, 937 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 1: You've seen some whoppers. I watched one of the Kwanjo 938 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 1: brothers commit to Auburn live then be like, I need 939 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 1: five minutes come back and commit to Alabama. Samson Knight, 940 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 1: Samson Night, Swammy Swammy. So to me, it's the biggest 941 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 1: it's the biggest story in recruiting, and they're biggest win 942 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:30,760 Speaker 1: because they're getting talked about the free the earned media 943 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 1: that is going on right now for Jackson State. You 944 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 1: can't you can't supplement that. That just happens. And they 945 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:40,880 Speaker 1: played it right, Dion played the cards right. So to me, 946 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 1: those are the five biggest winners playing what's the booster 947 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 1: club saying oh, we got some questions here. We have 948 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 1: a question from David Herring, not by recruiting, but it's 949 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 1: I like it. How it's like asked, how significant is 950 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 1: it to convince underclassmen to come back like Catalan back 951 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:59,760 Speaker 1: to Arkansas. It's huge. It's huge. Experience is the greatest teacher. 952 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: If everything is even, then experience, to me is the 953 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 1: best attribute. You can't simulate the game in practice. The 954 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 1: goal is to get to as close as you possibly 955 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 1: can to simulate the game in practice. But guess what 956 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 1: if you've got a lot of guys of practice that 957 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 1: played in a lot of games, they know what to expect. 958 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,359 Speaker 1: Not only that, they know the terminology, they know where 959 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:24,799 Speaker 1: to go to eat lunch, they know where the classes are, 960 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 1: and they can help the younger guys. It's almost an 961 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 1: and one is what I call it. It's the football 962 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,439 Speaker 1: version and the roster structure version of the and one. 963 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:37,480 Speaker 1: We're returning a junior safety that could have gone or 964 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,399 Speaker 1: could have left, that was a good player, that knows 965 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,319 Speaker 1: that are playing the SEC and guess what he can 966 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 1: help the young guys experience. Typically, the best teams are 967 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:53,319 Speaker 1: veteran teams. I watched Duke and Kentucky signed a bunch 968 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,799 Speaker 1: of one and duns a bunch of great freshmen that 969 00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,759 Speaker 1: don't have experience, tons of talent, tons of size, but 970 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 1: they don't have experience, and guess what they really hadn't 971 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 1: been winning them Kentucky one one because Anthony Davis is 972 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 1: an alien, but who typically wins in march teams with 973 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:17,800 Speaker 1: old guards. Getting a guy like Jordan Catalan back is 974 00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,840 Speaker 1: getting like getting a guard back. You don't have to 975 00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: worry about him in crunch time. So to me, it's 976 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: hughe that's a great question. What else do we got blamed? Yeah, 977 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,800 Speaker 1: we got a question here from Eli will Hide hashtag 978 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:32,520 Speaker 1: asked Jay, what'd you know you're gonna get? Asked us? 979 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 1: What do you think about the Austin Davis hire. Well, 980 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:41,920 Speaker 1: I'm also gonna say this. You remember about a week 981 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,760 Speaker 1: ago when I tweeted out watched the name Austin Davis. 982 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:50,719 Speaker 1: Nobody else will saying that. Now there will be people 983 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,360 Speaker 1: that will say they're saying it. But that's why we 984 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 1: keep receipts here. This has been in the works for 985 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 1: a while. And here's the bigger question. Number. When Austin 986 00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: Davis to me is a really good hire. People say 987 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 1: he doesn't have a ton of experiences are as a 988 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: college recruiter. The guy's gonna be able to recruit. I 989 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:05,040 Speaker 1: promise you, I promise she's gonna be able to recruit 990 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 1: was the hell of a player at Southern Miss. Players 991 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: coach understands the fundamentals. The bigger question is is he 992 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:13,799 Speaker 1: gonna call plays. I think Brian Harson's gonna call the plays, 993 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 1: and I've maintained that. Now you look and say, all right, well, 994 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 1: if he brings Austin Davison, is Austin Davis is going 995 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 1: to be the OC quarterbacks coach or is gonna be 996 00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 1: the co OC and quarterbacks coach with maybe a Eric 997 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 1: keisaw That remains to be seen. But I think it's 998 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 1: a good hire. I think it's a smart hire. And 999 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: if Brian Harson's gonna call the plays, it's good to 1000 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 1: get a guy in here that can develop quarterbacks and 1001 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 1: can recruit quarterbacks. Let me follow up while you're on 1002 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 1: that topic. Question for my boy chat here. I guess 1003 00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 1: he thinks he can just circum navigate the chat chat 1004 00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 1: and cut right if you will. What have y'all heard 1005 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 1: about D Davis at Auburn? Okay, here's my thing. He 1006 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,560 Speaker 1: needs to get his shot, and I think Brian Harson 1007 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 1: is the type of guy that is going to give 1008 00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 1: everybody a shot. And you know what, if D Davis 1009 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: is best player that album could put out a quarterback, 1010 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 1: then he needs to play. But we don't know that yet. 1011 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 1: We haven't seen him. We hadn't turned the engine on 1012 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,759 Speaker 1: and seen it, haven't taken it out for a drive yet, 1013 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:14,359 Speaker 1: hadn't seen it. He has talent, yes, he has dual threadability. Yes. 1014 00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:17,440 Speaker 1: Is he a winner? Yes he is. Look at the 1015 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:18,880 Speaker 1: high school region he came out of and all the 1016 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: win and they did. I call him thick Marshall. But 1017 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:25,839 Speaker 1: is he the best guy for the job. We're gonna see. 1018 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: If he is, then they're gonna put him out there, 1019 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:29,640 Speaker 1: and that's the best thing they can do. But at 1020 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: this point you gotta trust the coaches because anything that 1021 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: we think not being in practice and not watching the 1022 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:36,799 Speaker 1: film outside of what we are able to see. When 1023 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 1: we're able to see it on the field during the game, 1024 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:42,479 Speaker 1: they're gonna know. They're gonna make the decision they think best. 1025 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 1: And if the Matris goes out there in balls, you 1026 00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:48,640 Speaker 1: got to give them a reason to play you and 1027 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:50,880 Speaker 1: go take it. And I think the Matris has that mindset. 1028 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 1: So again, if he's out there, it's because he earned 1029 00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:54,840 Speaker 1: the right to be out there, and that's all you 1030 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:56,759 Speaker 1: can ask. What else we got all right, I put 1031 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 1: a pole out earlier. Boys, you know how we do it. 1032 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:03,919 Speaker 1: Does Dion says take a power five job? I'll go first? 1033 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,279 Speaker 1: You want to go first? You said it? Go ahead? 1034 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,200 Speaker 1: I mean yes, And I think he does it after 1035 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 1: this next season, and let's see. I gotta feel that 1036 00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: matter what I think? How do I know the Booster Club? Yes? 1037 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 1: At you're talking about ever? You asked them if he 1038 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 1: would ever take one? Yes, yes at seventy nine percent? 1039 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 1: Hit me, Jake, what you got number? I'm going, professor 1040 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 1: X right now, put on the helmet. I want to 1041 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 1: make some decisions right now. Clark does clarkly does it? Professor? 1042 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,239 Speaker 1: He too bad? He doesn't have the players like that 1043 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: X mens school and very good. Um, I would say 1044 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 1: they said yes, seventy eight point nine smart, smart play. 1045 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 1: Does Sion Sanders take a power of five job? No? 1046 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 1: Thirty seven percent? Yes, sixty three person we've never been 1047 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 1: wrong on before? He said no. It's like yeah, yeah, 1048 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 1: that's like the person that says, yeah, we won fourteen 1049 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 1: to twenty one technically, can't stand technically you won, but 1050 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: we both won and you lost. Yeah. I can't stand 1051 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,399 Speaker 1: people that are like, yeah, we won fourteen to twenty one. 1052 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, well, or one twenty one to fourteen 1053 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 1: and the other team lost twenty one. If you do that, 1054 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 1: you know we love you guys. If you do that, 1055 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:36,680 Speaker 1: please stop doing that. Say the winning score first, the 1056 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,399 Speaker 1: most points first, whether you won or lost. We won 1057 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: twenty one to fourteen. Are we lost? We didn't lose 1058 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,719 Speaker 1: fourteen to twenty one. We didn't win fourteen to twenty 1059 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 1: one either. That is in their heart they lost. Listen now, 1060 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:51,839 Speaker 1: if we're talking about stuff in the heart, you want 1061 00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,319 Speaker 1: to get deep in these gifts complicated? Are you all right? 1062 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,359 Speaker 1: You're safe here? You're saying good? Are you good? I'm 1063 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,400 Speaker 1: good honestly though for real, I'll text you, oh hey, 1064 00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:05,400 Speaker 1: listen together. Trust Maybe it's something cool I haven't even 1065 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,719 Speaker 1: thought about yet. Know Anyways. A question here from Jordan 1066 00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 1: Hayes hashtag asked Jable where you other than miamire Clemson, 1067 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 1: all right, who could be winning the ACC over the 1068 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 1: next few years? Well, Pitt just won it. Yeah, you know, 1069 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:20,480 Speaker 1: Nardoosi is still there. Even though I do think they 1070 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:22,200 Speaker 1: caught some lightning in the bottle with Kenny Pickett, and 1071 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 1: I don't think the ACC was very good. But outside 1072 00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 1: of he said, outside of Miami and Clemson. You got 1073 00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:28,839 Speaker 1: it though, Ford to stay and let me throw one 1074 00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 1: out there. Hold on, can I guess? Can I guess? Yes? 1075 00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:33,320 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna stare you in the lines for a second. 1076 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 1: Do it. It's painful, Um, wake Forest, No, I'll give 1077 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 1: you a hit. The head coach has won a national title. 1078 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 1: Oh man, you put me on the spot. Now see 1079 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech. Mac Brown, Mac Brown, North Carolina. You know, 1080 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: North Carolina was interesting to me this year because they 1081 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,120 Speaker 1: just lost so many weapons. And now I'm looking at 1082 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 1: him in a top ten on the recruiting class here, 1083 00:53:55,640 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 1: actually sneaky top eight Max to me, Max like the 1084 00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:04,399 Speaker 1: like recruiting. Now, Mack can spit it. Don't sleep on Mac. 1085 00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,440 Speaker 1: He'll fireside chat this thing to death. Now. So look, 1086 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,239 Speaker 1: I don't think it's North Carolina. I would say Florida State. 1087 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 1: You can never count him out. Dave classon as long 1088 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:16,279 Speaker 1: as he's at wake you know, I mean they were, 1089 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 1: they were on the cusp. They've got an identity. Say 1090 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 1: Hartman's a witch. Um Boston College and Jeff Hafley, I'm 1091 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 1: telling you, Jeff, Look, Jeff is a really good coach, 1092 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,080 Speaker 1: and they were smart to lock him up. They were 1093 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 1: smart to lock him up. What else we got mine? Yeah, 1094 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:34,319 Speaker 1: we had a questioning from Trey belk No asked shay 1095 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: Boy thoughts on Albers recruiting class, and who do you 1096 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 1: think they'll go after the QB in the portal? I 1097 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 1: think the quarterbacks Keaton Slows. I think they're already working 1098 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 1: on him. Um. Yeah, I think that's that's one thing 1099 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: that Austin Davis is probably already doing as we speak. 1100 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 1: And again if they finish in the top twenty. I 1101 00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 1: am looking at lineman, Okay, I've got to see. I'm 1102 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,400 Speaker 1: not just gonna look at the high school recruiting class 1103 00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 1: and say, all right, here it is, here's the funnel verdict, this, 1104 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 1: that and the other. You gotta give us. Give a 1105 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:03,040 Speaker 1: couple of months and see what they get out of 1106 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:04,919 Speaker 1: the portal, because they've got to get some offensive lineman 1107 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 1: out of the portal. That's the other half they're bringing. 1108 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:10,840 Speaker 1: You have to entre other half's gonna come out in 1109 00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 1: the portal. So I'm gonna reserve judgment. It's going great 1110 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,000 Speaker 1: right now from you know, from a ranking standpoint in 1111 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:16,440 Speaker 1: this on the other but I watched Gus Smiles on 1112 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 1: get top ten class after top ten class and they 1113 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:22,279 Speaker 1: couldn't block somebody on Facebook. Yeah, and that would be 1114 00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:23,960 Speaker 1: two years in a row. They've had to rely on 1115 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,320 Speaker 1: the portal for offensive linemen, right. At some point you 1116 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:27,920 Speaker 1: have to recruit these guys. And I'll tell you why, 1117 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:31,359 Speaker 1: because the offensive lineman don't transfer as much because there's 1118 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 1: five starting jobs. You can be the fifth best offensive 1119 00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 1: linemen on the team and still be a starter. That's 1120 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 1: why you see a lot of quarterbacks in the portal, 1121 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,799 Speaker 1: because if you're the second best quarterback, you never play. 1122 00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:44,360 Speaker 1: You're not running two quarterbacks out there unless you're just 1123 00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 1: a crazy person, which we'll probably see that in the 1124 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 1: next five years. Blaine, what else are you got? A 1125 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:54,279 Speaker 1: question from an og booster Dion Greenstage, says auburt fan. 1126 00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: Why do recruiting rankings matter if it's just about the trenches, 1127 00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 1: why not just rank the O line in D line classes? Well, 1128 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 1: because again, look, when I say it's about the trenches, 1129 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 1: that's the most important part. That's not the whole body. 1130 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,320 Speaker 1: I mean in football, that's what makes it such a 1131 00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 1: beautiful game. It is a team game. But to me, 1132 00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 1: you can hide a lot more on the outside than 1133 00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 1: you can on the inside, So I can see what 1134 00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:18,839 Speaker 1: you're saying, say saying, why would we even rank anybody else? Speak? 1135 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 1: Number one, it's fun. And number two, you got to 1136 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 1: know you know the best receivers out there, and the 1137 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 1: best running backs and the best quarterbacks. Because it all 1138 00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:27,640 Speaker 1: goes into the gumbo. It's just the offensive line. In 1139 00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 1: the defensive line, there's so few compared to wide receivers 1140 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 1: and dbs and linebackers. There's so few offensive linemen and 1141 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 1: defensive linemen out there to be able to help you 1142 00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,440 Speaker 1: up your status, up your prestige, or keep doing what 1143 00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:47,960 Speaker 1: you're doing that the pools just smaller. That's just how 1144 00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 1: it is. I think you should rank everybody, and the 1145 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 1: trenches can be the most important, but you want to 1146 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 1: know who the best dbs are out there, at least 1147 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:57,440 Speaker 1: a semblance of what you're getting at other spots, because 1148 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 1: once that engine's in there and the offensive lines set 1149 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 1: and the defensive line set, now you want the Ferrari 1150 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,400 Speaker 1: and you want the Lambeau and the Aston and all 1151 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 1: this stuff on the outside. Then it's a race for that. 1152 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:09,439 Speaker 1: But it's harder to get over the hump up front 1153 00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:11,560 Speaker 1: than it is on the outside, just due to numbers 1154 00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:14,960 Speaker 1: and mathematics. Right question here from Kyle Kennedy. Yeah, have 1155 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,080 Speaker 1: any coaches cooled down their hot seat with their signing 1156 00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: day class? Um? So we really got to think, I mean, 1157 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 1: who's really on the hot seat right now? Look around? 1158 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 1: Who's really on the hot seat? Dab was not on 1159 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 1: the hot seat. Brian Harson not on the hot seat. 1160 00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 1: Scott Frost, that would be the one that would be 1161 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 1: the one. Not that I thought it was hot because 1162 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:44,560 Speaker 1: they understand the process, but they were so bad this 1163 00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:46,400 Speaker 1: year they needed some good news and they needed this 1164 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:48,800 Speaker 1: type of good news because guess what, Typically when you're 1165 00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 1: up in the rankings and you're searching, it means you 1166 00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:53,280 Speaker 1: are getting good players. And what's the quickest way to 1167 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 1: turn a program around getting what good at players? So 1168 00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 1: I think Drink would be the main one that that's 1169 00:57:58,320 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 1: a good point. I'm sure there's probably one or two 1170 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 1: other out there, which is nothing that really comes to 1171 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 1: my mind, because again, we've had so much movement in 1172 00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:07,400 Speaker 1: the coaching carousel, there's a lot of places already locked up. 1173 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:09,280 Speaker 1: I mean, who's really out there just hanging by a 1174 00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 1: moment Lifehouse Style right now. Yeah, you got a questionaire 1175 00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:15,640 Speaker 1: from David Herron. Hashtag back to David with the well man, 1176 00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 1: you're playing favorites over there? A little bits any news 1177 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:23,040 Speaker 1: on when Texas and Oklahoma joined the SEC. Somebody us 1178 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 1: not till twenty twenty five. I'm gonna tell you right now, 1179 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,520 Speaker 1: if this somehow get somebody put out that they wouldn't 1180 00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 1: join until twenty twenty five because Oklahoma doesn't have the 1181 00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:36,520 Speaker 1: money to buy them out. What in it like eighty million? 1182 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 1: Y'all can't go find any million. Y'all can't go find it, 1183 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 1: y'all and sign vinibles for three three hundred billion. If 1184 00:58:45,240 --> 00:58:49,040 Speaker 1: that's truly the case, then Oklahoma, manage your take care 1185 00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 1: of your mental and your chick. Maybe they're not trying 1186 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: to rush it, but why maybe not. Maybe they're trying 1187 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 1: to say, hey, right now, we can get all the 1188 00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:58,680 Speaker 1: recruits by telling them we're gonna be in the SEC, 1189 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 1: but we don't have to go play there. I just 1190 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:03,200 Speaker 1: have a m Again, I'm not saying this report's true, 1191 00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 1: but never If they wait till twenty twenty five, then 1192 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:08,200 Speaker 1: shame on y'all because we, as the consumer, miss out 1193 00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 1: that's who misses out. Let's go, let's go, y'all want 1194 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 1: to get it. I know y'all got eighty million. How 1195 00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:18,640 Speaker 1: are the thunder doing they're doing all right? I don't know. 1196 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 1: We'll find out, but y'all don't have eighty million if that. 1197 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 1: And I don't want to say it's the case because 1198 00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:25,240 Speaker 1: I don't know a hundred percep for sure. But to me, 1199 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: if y'alluys wait till twenty twenty five, man, it feels 1200 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 1: like y'all are ducking. It feels like y'all are ducking. 1201 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,480 Speaker 1: Let's not play duck duck goose on this thing. Let's 1202 00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:37,640 Speaker 1: figure out a way. Get the lawyers in the room, everybody, 1203 00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:41,400 Speaker 1: you know, give some what they say on wedding crashers. 1204 00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 1: You know, if you want to throw some five miles 1205 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 1: this way, you know, do it whatever. If that's how 1206 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 1: you want to do it. You want to give a 1207 00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:47,360 Speaker 1: little bit our way, you know whatever to get the 1208 00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:49,520 Speaker 1: deal done. But I just hope it's not untill twenty 1209 00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 1: twenty five. But who knows what the people running the show, 1210 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:54,600 Speaker 1: who knows? Who knows? All Right, we got a question 1211 00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 1: here from Dakota Blackburn. What's that Dakota. What is the 1212 00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:00,920 Speaker 1: state of FSU football after losing it number one recruit 1213 01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 1: and the a four star receiver to Louisville. Sometimes stuff happens, 1214 01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:12,440 Speaker 1: like for the FSC fans that are melting down right now, stop. 1215 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:17,640 Speaker 1: You can be upset, but this isn't freak out panic. Well, 1216 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:22,320 Speaker 1: y'all don't have the eightieth ranked class. Everybody calmed down. 1217 01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:24,880 Speaker 1: See this is and that's what makes it being a 1218 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:28,400 Speaker 1: fan fanatic. We've all been there. Whatever. I understand you're upset, 1219 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 1: but you're gonna hurt yourself more pr wise by everybody 1220 01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 1: going out there and be like, you know what, FSU, 1221 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 1: screw them. You're gonna hurt yourself even more. You lost 1222 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:43,120 Speaker 1: two guys. You lost two of them. So at the 1223 01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:46,000 Speaker 1: end of the day, let Mike do his thing, y'all 1224 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 1: sign a good class and then if you want to 1225 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:49,400 Speaker 1: get pissed off at him, get mad at him on 1226 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:53,280 Speaker 1: the field next year, get mad at him then and 1227 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:57,919 Speaker 1: you're what three, that'd be year three. You're gonna find 1228 01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:01,919 Speaker 1: out next year. So I understand that people are like, oh, well, 1229 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,280 Speaker 1: you're you're this far in. We shouldn't be losing these 1230 01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:06,720 Speaker 1: guys to these guys especially if the number one guy. Yeah, 1231 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 1: it sucks. I got my car broken into yesterday while 1232 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:15,120 Speaker 1: we were in here, broke the window. It sucks. You 1233 01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:17,800 Speaker 1: move on, but it's not devastating. I don't have to 1234 01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 1: burn my car just because the windows broken. You know 1235 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:22,600 Speaker 1: what you do? You go fix the window and guess 1236 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:24,680 Speaker 1: what there just so happens to be a transfer portal 1237 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:26,880 Speaker 1: that can help a lot of hurt feelings really quickly. 1238 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,840 Speaker 1: So there are options out there. So all the FSU 1239 01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 1: fans stop panicking. Stop panicking. You lost the PR game 1240 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:38,400 Speaker 1: today against the guy that's one of y'all. I get it, 1241 01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:43,160 Speaker 1: but don't panic. Blaine got a question here from not 1242 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 1: a question to comment. Excuse me. It's funny to me 1243 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:49,480 Speaker 1: how these people don't realize how O line O linement 1244 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 1: are so limited. Go for a walk. How many six 1245 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:53,880 Speaker 1: foot six dudes a weigh three hundred and thirty pounds 1246 01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 1: do you see? And then ask them if they can 1247 01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 1: run under a five on a forty or if they 1248 01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 1: can they can bend, because that's what looking at ankle flection, 1249 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,720 Speaker 1: knee flection, hip flection. Are you a waste vender? Are 1250 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,840 Speaker 1: you a guy that can anchor and punch? You know, 1251 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 1: do you have are you pigeontoed? Like? There are so 1252 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:15,640 Speaker 1: few There are so many few fewer offensive tackles out there, 1253 01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 1: like Blaine is saying, And it's a great comment because 1254 01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:21,600 Speaker 1: it's the truth. Walking around that can pass pro within 1255 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:24,400 Speaker 1: two years, some of these defensive ends that you're going 1256 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 1: to see as opposed to guys out there that can 1257 01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:28,440 Speaker 1: run around and win a jump ball. And I'm not 1258 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:30,919 Speaker 1: saying it's easy to play receiver. That's not what I'm saying. 1259 01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 1: It's just math. It's how humans are built. There's not 1260 01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:40,880 Speaker 1: as many as you say, six six, three hundred pound 1261 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 1: mobile guys that are physical, that love playing offensive line 1262 01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,280 Speaker 1: that can do it for you just walking around there. 1263 01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 1: Say there's one, there's one, there's one, there's one. How 1264 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:51,320 Speaker 1: many seven footers are out there running around that can 1265 01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 1: really play. There's a lot more six three guards, there's 1266 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:57,640 Speaker 1: a lot more six five guards. Hell, I'd say there's 1267 01:02:57,640 --> 01:02:59,880 Speaker 1: a lot more six seven wings out there running around 1268 01:02:59,920 --> 01:03:01,800 Speaker 1: the can play, then a seven footer that can do 1269 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:05,120 Speaker 1: at all. It's the same thing. It's math. It's how 1270 01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:09,200 Speaker 1: humans are built. Saysn't the land before time go ahead? 1271 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 1: You got a question there from DJ Barber as should 1272 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 1: I asked Jabo for a team like Auburn, what is 1273 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 1: the magic number for oh Linman they need to get 1274 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:18,600 Speaker 1: out of the portal because he doesn't think one would 1275 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:22,320 Speaker 1: make a huge difference. Well, you need three, You need 1276 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:27,760 Speaker 1: three that play. See that's the thing. How much do 1277 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 1: you have left in the tank? How much is coming 1278 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 1: back for Auburn up front? And you got to bring 1279 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 1: you don't bring in Juco guys are guys from the 1280 01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:40,000 Speaker 1: portal to sit. That's never happened ever. You recruit high 1281 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 1: school kids and say you know what, You're gonna need 1282 01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 1: a year, But that's fine, We're gonna see what you are. 1283 01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:45,160 Speaker 1: You recruit a high school can say you know what, 1284 01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:48,040 Speaker 1: you may need two years. You may be two fifty 1285 01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:50,040 Speaker 1: five right now, but we see you as a six 1286 01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:53,800 Speaker 1: four three fifteen pound offensive tackle that can play because 1287 01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 1: you have the other attributes that we can put weight 1288 01:03:55,880 --> 01:04:00,320 Speaker 1: on you. So you are bringing in guys to play, 1289 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,360 Speaker 1: and you think the hurd is then on finding high 1290 01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 1: school offensive linement to develop. Look at the portal. Some 1291 01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:13,480 Speaker 1: of these guys are leaving for a reason very rarely. 1292 01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:15,440 Speaker 1: You know, you saw dar Rosenthal last year that ended 1293 01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:18,440 Speaker 1: up at Kentucky. You're seeing a couple this year that 1294 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 1: can play a lot of times guys aren't hitting the 1295 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:25,080 Speaker 1: portal because it went so good. Yep. So again, that's 1296 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:28,240 Speaker 1: where it comes down to being able to find the 1297 01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:30,360 Speaker 1: fit that you need and the guy that can help, 1298 01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:33,280 Speaker 1: because again three more offensive linement is depth. It's not 1299 01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,439 Speaker 1: about your first five, it's at least your first seven 1300 01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:37,520 Speaker 1: and really eight. That's the theme where you're trying to 1301 01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:39,120 Speaker 1: get to a couple more.

Trevon Trevan is is a rising star, Trevan 1322 01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:46,320 Speaker 1: will be. I think Trevan's the next Trooper Taylor.

How big is getting Cory 1334 01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:28,840 Speaker 1: Raymond for Florida is in recruiting huge. Corey's one of 1335 01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:31,480 Speaker 1: the most respected recruiters in the country. So he got Kamari. 1336 01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:36,120 Speaker 1: I mean, and you give him a full year at 1337 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:38,479 Speaker 1: a place where it's not just like hey, new shirt, 1338 01:06:38,600 --> 01:06:42,040 Speaker 1: new new place, same old me. You know, you give 1339 01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:45,120 Speaker 1: him a year and Corey's always gonna be fine. That's like, 1340 01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:47,200 Speaker 1: you don't have to worry about it now. That's the 1341 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 1: best part about it. If you're a Florida fan and 1342 01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:50,760 Speaker 1: you gotta worry about it now. Well, he having some 1343 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:53,440 Speaker 1: much success in Louisiana as he did at LSU. Probably 1344 01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:55,480 Speaker 1: not because he's outside the state. But look, Corey can 1345 01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:57,800 Speaker 1: recruit anywhere. It's a common misconception that, well he can 1346 01:06:57,880 --> 01:06:59,920 Speaker 1: just recruit in this state. Look, if you can recruit, 1347 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 1: you can recruit. I don't care what color you are, 1348 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:06,280 Speaker 1: how how tall you are, what languages speak, accent wise, whatever. 1349 01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:08,000 Speaker 1: And if you go in there talking different languages, they 1350 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:09,560 Speaker 1: can't understand. That may be a problem. But if you 1351 01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:12,120 Speaker 1: can recruit, you can recruit, and Corey Raymond can recruit. 1352 01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:13,800 Speaker 1: So when you're that good of a recruiter, are you 1353 01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:17,480 Speaker 1: given a specific territory or you listen, you go get 1354 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:19,360 Speaker 1: dogs from all over the How is what I want 1355 01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:21,520 Speaker 1: to Yeah? Yeah, So a lot of times it works 1356 01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:23,560 Speaker 1: in different ways. But what they'll do is and now 1357 01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,080 Speaker 1: with recruiting departments getting bigger and you have director of 1358 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:28,480 Speaker 1: player of personnels, you get some help, especially with the 1359 01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:30,480 Speaker 1: transfer portal. Guys are hiring people just to be able 1360 01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:33,520 Speaker 1: to wade through that for prospects because the position coaches 1361 01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:36,600 Speaker 1: don't have time. But typically you have an area and 1362 01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:38,880 Speaker 1: multiple areas, so you're saying, all right, we're gonna give 1363 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:42,640 Speaker 1: you these four states. Here's your area. You've got, you know, 1364 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:45,640 Speaker 1: Southern Louisiana, Southeast Louisiana, depending on how you want to 1365 01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 1: mix it up, and you try and put guys in 1366 01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:50,720 Speaker 1: areas where they're gonna have the most success. So Corey 1367 01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:55,080 Speaker 1: Raymond Louisiana. Like it. Just that makes sense. But there 1368 01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:58,320 Speaker 1: are also times where it's like, hey, I'm I'm the 1369 01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:01,160 Speaker 1: d line coach an area, so i got some part 1370 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:05,040 Speaker 1: of California Wide receivers coach has George Youn and this 1371 01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:07,120 Speaker 1: that and the other and there's a really good wide 1372 01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 1: receiver in California in that area. Like, hey man, you're 1373 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 1: coming out with me on this visit. You mingle, you 1374 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 1: co mingle a lot of time staffs recruit guys together. 1375 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:19,880 Speaker 1: The area just helps keep you organized and identify guys 1376 01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:23,000 Speaker 1: because if I'm the wide receivers coach, I want to 1377 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:25,599 Speaker 1: know the kid that we're recruiting at wide receiver. It's 1378 01:08:25,600 --> 01:08:27,760 Speaker 1: not like the defensive lineman just goes and calls him 1379 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 1: or goes to see him. How many times do you 1380 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 1: see three four coaches show up at a high school? 1381 01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:34,280 Speaker 1: Are two coaches, the area coach who coaches another position, 1382 01:08:34,360 --> 01:08:36,559 Speaker 1: and then the position coach of the kid that they're 1383 01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 1: talking to. So it's really it's a full effort. But 1384 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:43,000 Speaker 1: that's how you keep it organized because recruiting is just 1385 01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:45,639 Speaker 1: like anything. It's like accounting. The more organized you aren't, 1386 01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:47,720 Speaker 1: the more fishing you're gonna be, the less problems and 1387 01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:50,040 Speaker 1: hiccups that you're gonna have. Even if you're losing guys, 1388 01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:52,639 Speaker 1: you know where other guys are, where they rank. Because 1389 01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 1: a lot of debates ranking systems throughout coaches. How does 1390 01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:57,920 Speaker 1: it go, well, it goes from the area guy then 1391 01:08:57,960 --> 01:09:00,320 Speaker 1: to the position coach, then to the coordinator, then to 1392 01:09:00,360 --> 01:09:02,120 Speaker 1: the head coach. It goes. It works like that. It's 1393 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:03,680 Speaker 1: a great question. I love this right here. We got 1394 01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:07,680 Speaker 1: a four dollars ninety nine donations from much Mune, he 1395 01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 1: sayss Rain, he says, big thanks to you guys and 1396 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: the crew.

We really appreciate it. Man. 1401 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:25,000 Speaker 1: You know what, there's there's a lot of people that 1402 01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:27,759 Speaker 1: don't get enough enough props, and you guys are definitely 1403 01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:29,599 Speaker 1: one of them. So what I appreciate it, buddy. We're 1404 01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,200 Speaker 1: gonna keep bringing the juice. Man. I got a question 1405 01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:37,120 Speaker 1: here from Justin Decker if Slovis comes to Auburn just Ed, yes, 1406 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:42,200 Speaker 1: just d give us our TJ TJ transfer. I want 1407 01:09:42,240 --> 01:09:44,200 Speaker 1: you to say that whole question again. I want to 1408 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:46,200 Speaker 1: interrupt you. That was on me. You can interrupt me, 1409 01:09:46,280 --> 01:09:49,800 Speaker 1: but don't Rubb. I can interrupt you. Bird Decker comment, Well, 1410 01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:52,280 Speaker 1: I just you know, look, Justin's one of the coolest. 1411 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:55,040 Speaker 1: I get racked on for SAT two zero one three 1412 01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:58,439 Speaker 1: and I get in with an upper talking about it's 1413 01:09:58,439 --> 01:10:00,840 Speaker 1: a bust in San Francisco and in England. You're right, 1414 01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:04,880 Speaker 1: Justin Decker. If Slovis comes to Auburn, does D Davis 1415 01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:09,240 Speaker 1: or t J Finley transfer? I don't think so. I 1416 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,439 Speaker 1: don't think D's gonna run from it. I think he's 1417 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:13,040 Speaker 1: gonna give it another year and if it doesn't work out, 1418 01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 1: he'll probably bounce TJ. I don't know well enough. I 1419 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:18,559 Speaker 1: don't think TJ would run from it. He's gotten a taste, 1420 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:20,320 Speaker 1: a little bit of it. You know, he should get 1421 01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:23,960 Speaker 1: a shot. But we've seen crazier things happen. But I'll 1422 01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 1: tell you this, Slovis ain't coming here to sit the bench. 1423 01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:30,200 Speaker 1: He ain't come in to Auburn sit the bench. And 1424 01:10:30,320 --> 01:10:32,720 Speaker 1: you don't sign guys to sit the bench. That's where 1425 01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:35,240 Speaker 1: everybody's like, well, would Max Johnson go to A and 1426 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:37,080 Speaker 1: M with Haynes King? And we're gonna talk about that 1427 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:39,280 Speaker 1: because if Mac Johnson goes Max Johnson goes to A 1428 01:10:39,320 --> 01:10:41,080 Speaker 1: and M. I know they just signed his little brother. 1429 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 1: You think maybe Jimbo's a little worried about Haynes. Maybe 1430 01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:50,800 Speaker 1: he's not one hundred percent sure, maybe he's ninety, maybe 1431 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 1: eighty five, maybe sixty. So we'll see about that, but no, 1432 01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:56,920 Speaker 1: I don't think they will. All right, of course here 1433 01:10:56,960 --> 01:10:59,240 Speaker 1: from a Hayden flash one all right has like ass 1434 01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 1: j boy, how much of Auburn's cruton. That's how I 1435 01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:05,360 Speaker 1: put it in here. Success is due to commits like 1436 01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:08,320 Speaker 1: DeMar Austen and Holden g hitting recruits up on Twitter 1437 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:10,640 Speaker 1: and social media. Seems like there is a lot of 1438 01:11:10,760 --> 01:11:13,840 Speaker 1: more of that going on this year. The classes that 1439 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:17,760 Speaker 1: last throughout what is a crazy recruiting cycle every year 1440 01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:20,559 Speaker 1: are the ones that have coaches that are recruiting them 1441 01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:24,799 Speaker 1: and guys that are currently committed recruiting them. Players trust 1442 01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 1: players more than they trust anyone anyone. So when I 1443 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:35,519 Speaker 1: look at how important it is, that's why so many 1444 01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:40,000 Speaker 1: group chats are started between commits of certain teams. Typically 1445 01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:41,799 Speaker 1: the guys at the forefront of it, the holding Garners, 1446 01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:43,599 Speaker 1: the DeMar Alstons, They're like, Hey, we're going to start 1447 01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:45,479 Speaker 1: a group chat with all these guys because we want 1448 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:47,160 Speaker 1: to be close going in together, and we want to 1449 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:52,160 Speaker 1: have the best players. Players trust players more than anybody, 1450 01:11:53,560 --> 01:11:59,280 Speaker 1: and it's invaluable. It's invaluable. I mean, you can go 1451 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:02,360 Speaker 1: into their house as a coach, be great, bring them 1452 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 1: on campus. They can love it. But at some point, 1453 01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:09,200 Speaker 1: either that mama, that daddy, that grandma, that grandma, that grandpa, 1454 01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:13,000 Speaker 1: that auntie, that uncle, that guardian, brothers, sister, whatever, one 1455 01:12:13,080 --> 01:12:14,800 Speaker 1: of them are the players going to go up to 1456 01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 1: either a player that is already there and has been there, 1457 01:12:19,160 --> 01:12:21,920 Speaker 1: are a player that is committed back. So tell which 1458 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:24,200 Speaker 1: you think. How do you feel about it? Because I 1459 01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:27,320 Speaker 1: feel good, you feel good. They're going to reassure themselves. 1460 01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:30,639 Speaker 1: But the most useful, one of the most useful things, 1461 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 1: and all you know we had the recruiting coordinator from 1462 01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:38,000 Speaker 1: Fresno in the chat earlier. One of the most important 1463 01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:40,200 Speaker 1: things during an official visit is what we call the 1464 01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:45,880 Speaker 1: player panel. It's where all the parents and the players 1465 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:48,639 Speaker 1: on the official visit go into a room and there's 1466 01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:51,280 Speaker 1: current players on the roster. They could be seniors, they 1467 01:12:51,320 --> 01:12:53,320 Speaker 1: could be juniors, they could be sophomore, a freshman from 1468 01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:55,360 Speaker 1: the class before. Typically you like to mix it up. 1469 01:12:55,560 --> 01:12:57,360 Speaker 1: You want to have a freshman a sophomore at junior 1470 01:12:57,640 --> 01:13:01,360 Speaker 1: and a senior typically from different position groups. The players 1471 01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:03,160 Speaker 1: and the parents all go sit down in a room 1472 01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:06,040 Speaker 1: almost like a stage area, and the coaches say, hey, 1473 01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:09,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna leave now, y'all ask any questions to the players. 1474 01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:12,040 Speaker 1: Y'all want we want full transparency, And a lot of 1475 01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:15,640 Speaker 1: decisions get made during that moment because if if the 1476 01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 1: coaches feel confident enough to leave the room and say, 1477 01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:22,200 Speaker 1: you know what, you ask whatever, you guys can ask whatever, 1478 01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:26,680 Speaker 1: and they do and they do because right when that 1479 01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 1: meeting gets done, all the coaches are getting the players 1480 01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:30,360 Speaker 1: that they had in there on the panel coming like, 1481 01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:31,920 Speaker 1: all right, what did they ask? What did they say? 1482 01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:34,080 Speaker 1: It's like what did what did Commari say? Like what commaris? 1483 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:35,960 Speaker 1: What did they say?

And now you know, everybody does a little 1488 01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:49,280 Speaker 1: bit different.
