All right, Perdy again, that's George Kittle 45 00:02:03,788 --> 00:02:06,628 Speaker 3: over the middle. Oh my goodness, George Kittle. If there 46 00:02:06,748 --> 00:02:10,108 Speaker 3: was six black jerseys around one George Kittle. 47 00:02:10,548 --> 00:02:11,828 Speaker 4: Oh, that looks good. 48 00:02:12,348 --> 00:02:15,308 Speaker 3: That should make forty nine Ers fans feel comfortable this game. 49 00:02:15,348 --> 00:02:17,228 Speaker 3: If you didn't see the last play, go take five 50 00:02:17,268 --> 00:02:18,788 Speaker 3: minutes of your life because that's how long a fella 51 00:02:18,868 --> 00:02:22,068 Speaker 3: get took and watch. It is very entertaining. It ends 52 00:02:22,148 --> 00:02:26,588 Speaker 3: in a tie. Tom Pellisero, our insider assigned to us 53 00:02:26,748 --> 00:02:30,228 Speaker 3: this morning, Good morning to you friend, Tom, Brandon Ayuk, 54 00:02:30,548 --> 00:02:33,548 Speaker 3: Trent Williams. These are big names that have been holding 55 00:02:33,548 --> 00:02:36,468 Speaker 3: out from the forty nine ers this summer. So where 56 00:02:36,468 --> 00:02:39,668 Speaker 3: do things stand with their contract situation today? 57 00:02:40,268 --> 00:02:45,548 Speaker 7: Well, Jamie Brandon Ayuk's situation remains unresolved after months and 58 00:02:45,748 --> 00:02:48,788 Speaker 7: months of on and off discussions. You just saw him 59 00:02:49,268 --> 00:02:52,108 Speaker 7: on the sideline at the preseason game. He did make 60 00:02:52,148 --> 00:02:54,428 Speaker 7: that trip. Multiple people within the lead point out to 61 00:02:54,468 --> 00:02:57,468 Speaker 7: me he was not wearing team gear, which you're supposed 62 00:02:57,508 --> 00:02:59,708 Speaker 7: to be wearing on the sideline, So read into that 63 00:03:00,108 --> 00:03:02,548 Speaker 7: what you will. It had sounded for a couple of 64 00:03:02,548 --> 00:03:05,228 Speaker 7: weeks after the forty nine Ers re engaged as if 65 00:03:05,228 --> 00:03:07,108 Speaker 7: they were at the one yard line on a Brandon 66 00:03:07,148 --> 00:03:10,348 Speaker 7: Ayuke deal. To this point, though, they've not yet pushed 67 00:03:10,388 --> 00:03:13,028 Speaker 7: that across the goal line, and until something is done here, 68 00:03:13,268 --> 00:03:16,628 Speaker 7: there are other possibilities on the table, namely a trade 69 00:03:16,668 --> 00:03:19,988 Speaker 7: to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The framework of that trade, as 70 00:03:19,988 --> 00:03:23,948 Speaker 7: well as a contract for Ayuk in Pittsburgh, remain in place, 71 00:03:24,348 --> 00:03:26,828 Speaker 7: but the forty nine Ers have not shown a willingness 72 00:03:26,828 --> 00:03:29,188 Speaker 7: to move on from Brandon Ayuk unless they're able to 73 00:03:29,268 --> 00:03:33,348 Speaker 7: also acquire a receiver, which would require a second deal. 74 00:03:33,748 --> 00:03:37,108 Speaker 7: As for Trent Williams, Kyle Shanahan expressed optimism last week 75 00:03:37,108 --> 00:03:39,068 Speaker 7: that they were going to be able to work something out. 76 00:03:39,228 --> 00:03:42,428 Speaker 7: There's really no sense that Trent Williams intends to retire here. 77 00:03:42,508 --> 00:03:46,308 Speaker 7: San Francisco open to giving him a raise in twenty 78 00:03:46,428 --> 00:03:49,308 Speaker 7: twenty four. They've still got time, but you are starting 79 00:03:49,308 --> 00:03:51,428 Speaker 7: to get short in terms of being able to prepare 80 00:03:51,788 --> 00:03:54,348 Speaker 7: for the start of the season. Meanwhile, running back Christian 81 00:03:54,388 --> 00:03:56,988 Speaker 7: McCaffrey last sing on the field three weeks ago before 82 00:03:56,988 --> 00:03:59,348 Speaker 7: he suffered a calf strain, but has been on the 83 00:03:59,388 --> 00:04:02,388 Speaker 7: field working out on the side by all accounts, looking 84 00:04:02,428 --> 00:04:05,588 Speaker 7: really good. No real concern since from the forty nine 85 00:04:05,628 --> 00:04:09,388 Speaker 7: Ers well McCaffrey status going into the season. The season 86 00:04:09,388 --> 00:04:13,668 Speaker 7: opener just two weeks away tonight against the New York Jets. 87 00:04:13,748 --> 00:04:13,948 Speaker 8: Jam. 88 00:04:14,428 --> 00:04:15,028 Speaker 4: Thank you, Tom. 89 00:04:15,028 --> 00:04:17,188 Speaker 3: We'll see you here on the show later in the week. 90 00:04:17,188 --> 00:04:20,268 Speaker 3: We look forward to that as we focus on the 91 00:04:20,388 --> 00:04:22,908 Speaker 3: NFC West and the forty nine ers at hand. You've 92 00:04:22,908 --> 00:04:25,068 Speaker 3: seen him play in the Super Bowl. You see their 93 00:04:25,108 --> 00:04:28,948 Speaker 3: star players in headlines. The front office constantly wants to 94 00:04:28,988 --> 00:04:31,308 Speaker 3: tell you, we're not concerned about that, We're not stressed 95 00:04:31,308 --> 00:04:34,348 Speaker 3: about this. We want to remain favorites in our own division. Manti, 96 00:04:34,388 --> 00:04:36,748 Speaker 3: do you keep San Francisco atop the NFC West? 97 00:04:36,828 --> 00:04:39,908 Speaker 9: You know, I think it's so fitting with Ukbar's performance, 98 00:04:40,148 --> 00:04:44,388 Speaker 9: with the fight, that little fight, poetic performance that he had. 99 00:04:44,988 --> 00:04:47,708 Speaker 9: One of my favorite fighters of Mike Tyson. And while 100 00:04:47,748 --> 00:04:50,308 Speaker 9: I when I played one of my favorite clips of 101 00:04:50,308 --> 00:04:53,228 Speaker 9: Mike Tyson was when he described his journey to the 102 00:04:53,308 --> 00:04:55,428 Speaker 9: ring and how he was worried and he was scared 103 00:04:55,468 --> 00:04:57,988 Speaker 9: and there's fear, and the closer he got to the ring, 104 00:04:58,028 --> 00:05:00,508 Speaker 9: the more confident he got. And he said this, once 105 00:05:00,548 --> 00:05:02,828 Speaker 9: I got into the ring, I was a god. Nobody 106 00:05:02,828 --> 00:05:05,308 Speaker 9: could beat me. And how he walked around that ring, 107 00:05:05,868 --> 00:05:09,388 Speaker 9: there was a look that you see when somebody truly 108 00:05:09,428 --> 00:05:10,988 Speaker 9: believes they're better than you, and I think for the 109 00:05:11,028 --> 00:05:13,828 Speaker 9: past five to ten years, we've got so accustomed to 110 00:05:13,908 --> 00:05:17,148 Speaker 9: the San Francisco forty nine ers walking around not only 111 00:05:17,188 --> 00:05:20,148 Speaker 9: the NFC West, but the NFL in general as these 112 00:05:20,188 --> 00:05:22,868 Speaker 9: big bullies. You watch Trent Williams and Deebo Samuel come 113 00:05:22,908 --> 00:05:24,948 Speaker 9: out of the locker room with that bump box, and 114 00:05:25,188 --> 00:05:27,468 Speaker 9: you watch them getting to that scuff over in the pregame, 115 00:05:27,508 --> 00:05:31,068 Speaker 9: and you watch their dominant defense and the run game. 116 00:05:31,268 --> 00:05:32,748 Speaker 5: We got so accustomed to that. 117 00:05:33,108 --> 00:05:35,308 Speaker 9: While I flipped on the TV and watched their past 118 00:05:35,388 --> 00:05:38,308 Speaker 9: two preseason games when their starters played, and I just 119 00:05:38,388 --> 00:05:44,588 Speaker 9: see an emotionally drained team. They've been to the NFC 120 00:05:44,748 --> 00:05:49,068 Speaker 9: Championship four in the past five years, They've been to 121 00:05:49,108 --> 00:05:53,028 Speaker 9: the Super Bowl twice, and they lost that Super Bowl 122 00:05:53,108 --> 00:05:55,548 Speaker 9: to the same team. It reminds me of when I 123 00:05:55,588 --> 00:05:57,308 Speaker 9: was with the Saints in twenty seventeen. 124 00:05:57,428 --> 00:06:01,788 Speaker 5: We had the Minneapolis Miracle. We had to suffer that. 125 00:06:01,788 --> 00:06:03,388 Speaker 5: That is just emotionally draining. 126 00:06:03,428 --> 00:06:05,668 Speaker 9: Then the very next year we play the Rams in 127 00:06:05,708 --> 00:06:08,348 Speaker 9: the NFC Championship and we have the no call PI 128 00:06:09,148 --> 00:06:12,228 Speaker 9: we go through that. I can only imagine for the 129 00:06:12,268 --> 00:06:13,548 Speaker 9: San Francisco forty Niners. 130 00:06:13,828 --> 00:06:16,588 Speaker 5: What that feels like. And then I put on we. 131 00:06:16,668 --> 00:06:19,508 Speaker 9: Just saw the the Seattle Seahawks preseason game, and you 132 00:06:19,588 --> 00:06:22,588 Speaker 9: see that party that's in there the first the first drive, 133 00:06:22,668 --> 00:06:25,268 Speaker 9: Gino Smith goes down there, hits Jackson Jackson Smith, and 134 00:06:25,348 --> 00:06:29,308 Speaker 9: Jigbo hits dk Metcalf And that's without Kenneth Walker, that's 135 00:06:29,348 --> 00:06:32,668 Speaker 9: without Tyler Lockett and they're out there having a blast. 136 00:06:32,708 --> 00:06:35,308 Speaker 9: Mike Robs on there, Michael Bennet's on on the broadcast. 137 00:06:35,308 --> 00:06:36,268 Speaker 5: It's a party. 138 00:06:36,468 --> 00:06:38,708 Speaker 9: It's not the same you know when I watched the 139 00:06:39,268 --> 00:06:42,028 Speaker 9: San Francisco fort Niners. So they're not the favorite for. 140 00:06:41,988 --> 00:06:45,068 Speaker 8: Me, you know, Yeah, this is the forty nine ers. 141 00:06:45,108 --> 00:06:47,428 Speaker 8: I mean, this is one that has been kind of 142 00:06:47,548 --> 00:06:50,028 Speaker 8: a little problematic for me because I believe in the 143 00:06:50,028 --> 00:06:52,588 Speaker 8: forty nine ers. I love, you know what they kind 144 00:06:52,628 --> 00:06:55,028 Speaker 8: of have like the team fans. It's a really good team. 145 00:06:55,068 --> 00:06:57,868 Speaker 8: It's the reason why they keep going far every single 146 00:06:57,908 --> 00:07:00,228 Speaker 8: season for the last couple of seasons here that we've 147 00:07:00,228 --> 00:07:02,228 Speaker 8: been looking at them. But I was talking to a 148 00:07:02,308 --> 00:07:08,668 Speaker 8: researcher Lakwan. Lakwan, you had this interesting numbers on Brandon Ayuk. 149 00:07:08,708 --> 00:07:11,148 Speaker 8: What was that on Brandon Ayuk in brock Purty, like 150 00:07:11,188 --> 00:07:12,308 Speaker 8: in brock Party's production. 151 00:07:12,588 --> 00:07:15,188 Speaker 10: Yeah, last season, I believe Brandon Ayuk was a huge 152 00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:17,628 Speaker 10: part of brock Purty's success. So if you look at 153 00:07:17,668 --> 00:07:20,348 Speaker 10: the pass attempts per yard, I mean you're looking at 154 00:07:20,348 --> 00:07:23,988 Speaker 10: thirteen point two passing yards per attempt and versus all 155 00:07:24,028 --> 00:07:26,228 Speaker 10: other pass catchers on the forty nine ers last season 156 00:07:26,228 --> 00:07:28,828 Speaker 10: they were at nine point six. So that's what Brandon 157 00:07:28,828 --> 00:07:30,828 Speaker 10: and Ayuk brings to the forty nine ers offense is 158 00:07:30,868 --> 00:07:33,188 Speaker 10: stretching the field, being able to go down the field 159 00:07:33,188 --> 00:07:36,468 Speaker 10: and drive. And without Brandon Nyuk in the preseason, we 160 00:07:36,588 --> 00:07:39,668 Speaker 10: saw him at five point nine passing yards per attempt 161 00:07:39,708 --> 00:07:41,908 Speaker 10: on twenty one dropbacks from brock Purty. 162 00:07:42,228 --> 00:07:47,068 Speaker 8: So let me translate, they need Brandon Aiyuk. Brandon Ayuk 163 00:07:47,188 --> 00:07:50,068 Speaker 8: is very important. Why the heck are we still in 164 00:07:50,148 --> 00:07:53,468 Speaker 8: a contract dispute with Brandon Aiyuk. That's your guy, that's 165 00:07:53,468 --> 00:07:55,748 Speaker 8: your receiver. If you guys are sitting here and trying 166 00:07:55,788 --> 00:07:58,148 Speaker 8: to take advantage of this window, you've got to capitalize 167 00:07:58,148 --> 00:08:01,828 Speaker 8: on that. Furthermore, Trent Williams is still in a contract dispute. 168 00:08:02,308 --> 00:08:04,908 Speaker 8: What are we doing? What are we doing? Like the season, 169 00:08:04,948 --> 00:08:05,708 Speaker 8: what does the season. 170 00:08:05,508 --> 00:08:06,108 Speaker 5: Start on many days? 171 00:08:06,108 --> 00:08:06,868 Speaker 4: Are looking days? 172 00:08:06,908 --> 00:08:07,748 Speaker 5: Thirteen days? 173 00:08:07,748 --> 00:08:08,108 Speaker 6: For now? 174 00:08:08,228 --> 00:08:11,028 Speaker 8: What are we doing? Some could say that, yeah, it's 175 00:08:11,068 --> 00:08:13,148 Speaker 8: still time. Theah, there's still time, but let's get this 176 00:08:13,188 --> 00:08:15,748 Speaker 8: thing going, like this is the NFC West, The NFC 177 00:08:15,828 --> 00:08:18,108 Speaker 8: is gonna be very competitive this year. You guys gotta 178 00:08:18,148 --> 00:08:20,708 Speaker 8: get going. So and then you put the big question 179 00:08:20,748 --> 00:08:22,988 Speaker 8: mark with Christian McCaffery. I know they say he should 180 00:08:23,028 --> 00:08:25,068 Speaker 8: be cool, should be ready to go, but that cap 181 00:08:25,148 --> 00:08:28,348 Speaker 8: injury sounds shady to me anyways. So I'm just saying 182 00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:31,388 Speaker 8: I'm worried for the forty nine ers. This isn't feeling 183 00:08:31,468 --> 00:08:33,868 Speaker 8: like I'm not getting that good energy for the forty 184 00:08:33,908 --> 00:08:35,908 Speaker 8: nine ers right now. For all the excitement that I 185 00:08:35,948 --> 00:08:39,268 Speaker 8: have with what they have developed around them, I think 186 00:08:39,308 --> 00:08:39,868 Speaker 8: it's valid. 187 00:08:39,868 --> 00:08:41,868 Speaker 5: The holdouts and that type of stuff is never great. 188 00:08:41,868 --> 00:08:42,628 Speaker 5: You don't like to see it. 189 00:08:43,028 --> 00:08:45,348 Speaker 6: They've won fifty four games in the last five years, 190 00:08:45,388 --> 00:08:47,068 Speaker 6: like they are the standard in that division. 191 00:08:47,108 --> 00:08:48,748 Speaker 5: I think should they be the favorite? Sure? 192 00:08:48,828 --> 00:08:50,748 Speaker 6: What does favorite mean? We just think they're gonna win. 193 00:08:50,788 --> 00:08:52,388 Speaker 6: But the Rams are gonna matter. 194 00:08:52,508 --> 00:08:54,028 Speaker 5: The Seahawks will see they have a new coach. 195 00:08:54,068 --> 00:08:55,988 Speaker 6: And I've told you many times I think the Cardinals 196 00:08:55,988 --> 00:08:57,108 Speaker 6: are gonna be really good this year. 197 00:08:57,348 --> 00:08:59,788 Speaker 5: It just seems that it's very difficult to keep it 198 00:08:59,868 --> 00:09:01,508 Speaker 5: up for that long. So to speak. 199 00:09:02,028 --> 00:09:04,308 Speaker 6: I just think to win that many games year after 200 00:09:04,548 --> 00:09:07,268 Speaker 6: year after year, and listen, if Niners have dealt with 201 00:09:07,308 --> 00:09:09,428 Speaker 6: things with injuries, with the quarterback going down. 202 00:09:09,508 --> 00:09:11,468 Speaker 5: I just have one thing to say to the Niners. 203 00:09:11,628 --> 00:09:13,988 Speaker 5: What was going on with brock Party in this preseason? 204 00:09:14,228 --> 00:09:16,588 Speaker 6: My god, I feel like he was like a Rodeo 205 00:09:16,668 --> 00:09:20,068 Speaker 6: clown out there. I've never seen a de facto starter 206 00:09:20,228 --> 00:09:23,908 Speaker 6: for a team being longer taking more hits, especially a 207 00:09:23,948 --> 00:09:27,108 Speaker 6: guy who has a very high profile injury and an 208 00:09:27,188 --> 00:09:30,588 Speaker 6: organization that's had some very high profile quarterback injuries. I 209 00:09:30,628 --> 00:09:33,308 Speaker 6: want to give Shanahan like a blow gun or something 210 00:09:33,348 --> 00:09:35,108 Speaker 6: to shoot him in the neck the next time he's. 211 00:09:35,108 --> 00:09:38,268 Speaker 5: Running around this. I hated watching this. 212 00:09:38,428 --> 00:09:41,588 Speaker 6: I hated watching him standing his legs, his knees and everything. 213 00:09:41,708 --> 00:09:43,828 Speaker 6: Thank god it is over with because I was so 214 00:09:43,868 --> 00:09:46,108 Speaker 6: worried about him being out there that long. I still 215 00:09:46,148 --> 00:09:48,188 Speaker 6: do think that they are the favorite because they got 216 00:09:48,228 --> 00:09:51,148 Speaker 6: the band back together for the most part. We'll see defensively, 217 00:09:51,388 --> 00:09:53,428 Speaker 6: they got still have so many studs, and I don't 218 00:09:53,468 --> 00:09:54,908 Speaker 6: know if the other teams are up to their standards. 219 00:09:54,948 --> 00:09:56,388 Speaker 5: Yet I just have to I just have to add 220 00:09:56,428 --> 00:09:56,828 Speaker 5: lib something. 221 00:09:56,828 --> 00:09:58,708 Speaker 6: In middle of the segment, you guys are there in 222 00:09:58,748 --> 00:10:02,188 Speaker 6: that glistening palace there in Los Angeles with all these 223 00:10:02,228 --> 00:10:05,748 Speaker 6: beautiful colors and all these screens and gadgets and tables, 224 00:10:05,948 --> 00:10:09,148 Speaker 6: and yet despite all that, the most beautiful shot we 225 00:10:09,228 --> 00:10:11,468 Speaker 6: have in the entire show is when we go to 226 00:10:11,508 --> 00:10:14,668 Speaker 6: the damn Researcher and we see the morning sunrise coming 227 00:10:14,748 --> 00:10:17,428 Speaker 6: up in Los Angeles with the palm trees behind them. 228 00:10:17,468 --> 00:10:19,268 Speaker 5: It's like, that's the best shot we got. 229 00:10:19,548 --> 00:10:22,628 Speaker 6: Look at the morning sun with him in his headsets 230 00:10:22,868 --> 00:10:25,788 Speaker 6: like Vince from sham Wow with his J Cruise shirt 231 00:10:25,788 --> 00:10:28,628 Speaker 6: with the undershirt underneath it, and that's the best shot 232 00:10:28,668 --> 00:10:31,108 Speaker 6: we got.

Yeah, he has 316 00:14:10,988 --> 00:14:12,708 Speaker 12: a unique ability to be able to do that, probably 317 00:14:12,708 --> 00:14:13,788 Speaker 12: better than me.

Everyone knows about the dispute 343 00:15:10,068 --> 00:15:11,428 Speaker 12: we had when he sent me to the locker room 344 00:15:11,428 --> 00:15:14,908 Speaker 12: on national television. That was crazy. I remember going home. 345 00:15:14,948 --> 00:15:16,788 Speaker 12: I was with my girlfriend. I'm looking at TV. I'm like, 346 00:15:17,388 --> 00:15:20,988 Speaker 12: a right, I'm telling her it's not damn. But then 347 00:15:20,988 --> 00:15:22,388 Speaker 12: I knew I had to get up that next morning 348 00:15:22,428 --> 00:15:26,148 Speaker 12: to go face Mike Singletary. But that that moment really 349 00:15:26,508 --> 00:15:28,188 Speaker 12: allowed me to be able to look myself in the 350 00:15:28,228 --> 00:15:30,148 Speaker 12: mirror and say, hey, I need to change, I need 351 00:15:30,188 --> 00:15:32,028 Speaker 12: to do better in order for me to be a leader, 352 00:15:32,108 --> 00:15:33,748 Speaker 12: I have to listen to what this man is telling me. 353 00:15:33,948 --> 00:15:36,268 Speaker 12: And from there I knew he was on my side 354 00:15:36,348 --> 00:15:38,428 Speaker 12: and I felt the love. I felt like he's my dad. 355 00:15:38,708 --> 00:15:41,748 Speaker 12: I felt like he's my brother, my mentor. And since 356 00:15:41,788 --> 00:15:45,308 Speaker 12: then we've just been nothing but great friends. 357 00:15:46,068 --> 00:15:46,828 Speaker 9: Yes, I love that. 358 00:15:46,988 --> 00:15:47,308 Speaker 5: I love that. 359 00:15:47,428 --> 00:15:48,788 Speaker 9: Yeah, Yeah, that's cool. 360 00:15:48,948 --> 00:15:50,308 Speaker 5: And Vernon, it's great to see you. Man. 361 00:15:50,668 --> 00:15:52,548 Speaker 6: We've always thought you were one of the most interesting 362 00:15:52,588 --> 00:15:55,148 Speaker 6: guys top to bottom in all of football. I think 363 00:15:55,188 --> 00:15:57,148 Speaker 6: another person who fits that description is going to be 364 00:15:57,148 --> 00:15:59,348 Speaker 6: walking the sidelines on the stadium right next to you 365 00:15:59,468 --> 00:16:01,948 Speaker 6: right now, one of your other former head coaches, Jim Harbaugh. 366 00:16:01,988 --> 00:16:05,028 Speaker 6: Here's the deal, vern everybody has a Jim Harbosch. Let's 367 00:16:05,028 --> 00:16:08,068 Speaker 6: just say he has a unique personality. Get into it. 368 00:16:08,188 --> 00:16:09,708 Speaker 6: Think about it for a second if you need to. 369 00:16:09,868 --> 00:16:12,548 Speaker 6: What is your best Jim Harbaughs story? 370 00:16:12,628 --> 00:16:15,668 Speaker 12: My best Jim Harbaugh story? I have to say, man, 371 00:16:15,988 --> 00:16:17,708 Speaker 12: there's been so many things. I just when I think 372 00:16:17,708 --> 00:16:19,748 Speaker 12: of Jim Harball, I think about that inkstand he has 373 00:16:19,748 --> 00:16:24,068 Speaker 12: on his kakis, that he always got that inkstand in 374 00:16:24,068 --> 00:16:25,828 Speaker 12: his pocket. 375 00:16:26,108 --> 00:16:26,868 Speaker 9: My best stories. 376 00:16:26,908 --> 00:16:29,028 Speaker 12: When he suited up, I was walking out the practice. 377 00:16:29,028 --> 00:16:31,308 Speaker 12: He suited up, I mean from from head to toe 378 00:16:31,348 --> 00:16:32,908 Speaker 12: he had all the gear on. Now, look, I'm like, 379 00:16:32,948 --> 00:16:35,068 Speaker 12: who's this new guy? He turned around it's like as 380 00:16:35,148 --> 00:16:37,708 Speaker 12: Jim Harball, He's out there going with the second the 381 00:16:37,748 --> 00:16:40,948 Speaker 12: second team, and he's throwing, he's competing. I'm like, Wow, 382 00:16:41,068 --> 00:16:43,828 Speaker 12: this is a heck of a coach. I've never seen 383 00:16:43,868 --> 00:16:46,228 Speaker 12: anything like. And maybe that story is not that interesting, 384 00:16:46,268 --> 00:16:48,948 Speaker 12: but to me, it was interesting. It was amazing to 385 00:16:48,988 --> 00:16:50,548 Speaker 12: see that. I've never seen that in the head coach. 386 00:16:50,628 --> 00:16:52,348 Speaker 3: But did it make you look at him differently to 387 00:16:52,468 --> 00:16:55,468 Speaker 3: appreciate him, respect him? Like what did that experience of 388 00:16:55,508 --> 00:16:57,428 Speaker 3: watching him operate that way do for you? 389 00:16:57,748 --> 00:16:57,908 Speaker 5: Well? 390 00:16:57,908 --> 00:16:59,628 Speaker 12: I thought it was like I was like, man, this 391 00:16:59,708 --> 00:17:03,388 Speaker 12: guy's he's great. I mean, his personality, that's what you want. 392 00:17:03,428 --> 00:17:05,748 Speaker 12: You want to coach this with you that you feel 393 00:17:05,788 --> 00:17:08,348 Speaker 12: like you can really connect with. And I connected with him. 394 00:17:08,348 --> 00:17:10,748 Speaker 12: I think the entire team connected. They can attest to this. 395 00:17:11,108 --> 00:17:14,668 Speaker 12: But he was just he just had this this charisma 396 00:17:14,708 --> 00:17:17,308 Speaker 12: about him that made you want to win for him. 397 00:17:17,628 --> 00:17:19,708 Speaker 12: And I think that's why. I think that's his formula. 398 00:17:19,788 --> 00:17:21,628 Speaker 12: I mean, we watched him. He can go from college, 399 00:17:21,668 --> 00:17:23,308 Speaker 12: he can go to the pros, he can go anywhere 400 00:17:23,428 --> 00:17:25,188 Speaker 12: and be able to turn the team around. He just 401 00:17:25,268 --> 00:17:27,828 Speaker 12: has that unique ability to be able to do that 402 00:17:27,428 --> 00:17:29,908 Speaker 12: getting those guys to rally behind him. 403 00:17:30,548 --> 00:17:31,068 Speaker 8: The connection. 404 00:17:31,628 --> 00:17:35,028 Speaker 6: If anybody doesn't know, Vernon is a movie star.
