Razzle tazzle, touchdown the Houstas 0:00:10.880 --> 0:00:14.760 and the Texans go in front. There is no off 0:00:14.800 --> 0:00:19.239 season for your Houston Texans. Game day, he's every day. 0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:21.000 We had a lot of energy and we brought a 0:00:21.040 --> 0:00:25.880 lot of spark for this organization. Five nights a week, 0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:29.680 they hits, keep on coming, call us out.

Mark Vandamir John Harris with you 0:00:48.680 --> 0:00:51.360 Friday morning. We'll be doing our thing eight to ten 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:54.720 am from the Houston Methodist Training Center and Pillow Brian's 0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:56.840 gonna join us right off the bat eight am Friday 0:00:56.840 --> 0:01:02.000 Exclusive with O B to kickoff amp on that day 0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:05.240 as camps were already kicked off. I'm just full disclosure here. 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:08.360 They're in training camp. But that's the padded practice premiere. 0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:10.520 All right. That's a lot of peas, that's a lot 0:01:10.560 --> 0:01:13.800 of alliteration for anxious anchors, as they said at Broadcast 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:16.280 News anyway, Johnny, how are you doing today? How you 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:21.840 feeling physically, feeling a little bit better mentally? Head is 0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:25.240 completely out of it with all this college football news today. 0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:28.800 It's really kind of upset the apple cart with what's 0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:32.640 happened with college football. But you know, they as they say, 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.960 this show goes on. It's not completely canceled or waiting 0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:36.800 to see what the Big twelve, I, SEC and ACC do, 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:40.640 but it's it was a rough day. I'm considering those 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:43.560 are kind of my beginning in my roots in this 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:47.680 whole business. We're in college football and just seeing all 0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:52.040 that happened today, as some had surmise and thought maybe 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:54.400 there'd be a last second Hail Mary that could save 0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:57.600 the season, but definitely did not happen. So Big ten, 0:01:57.680 --> 0:01:59.760 Pac twelve won't see them until the spring, and we'll 0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:02.440 see what happens in the Big twelve. A cec Neassy, Well, 0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:04.880 I think it's such huge news that it does play 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:06.960 into what we talk about all the time here. And look, 0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:09.880 it's really affected our lone star sports and entertainment calendar 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.400 of course with the Houston Texans and you know, the 0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:17.720 college football situation now, Johnny, when you look at the 0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:20.360 Big Ten wanting to play in the spring, I mean, 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:22.840 is this even doable? Can you play? I mean I 0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:26.679 think like five games, maybe four? Get you can't play 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:29.240 a season in the spring on a college campus. When 0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:30.920 are you gonna start this thing? And the dead of 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:33.800 winter in February? How's that gonna be good for you? Well? 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:37.079 I mean that's that's the main question. And I just 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.680 saw a tweet from a guy I think he covers 0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:43.560 it for either the Athletic or Iowa. Yeah, Scott Dockerman. 0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:45.600 He said, you know, if the Big Ten open camp 0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:48.600 on January fourth, they could have games by January twenty 0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:51.120 nine through the thirty first open week before the Super Bowl. 0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:55.680 Maybe go to indoor doubleheaders and Detroit, Indie Mini even Milwaukee. 0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:57.760 Maybe do that for two weeks and play campus football 0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:00.360 the week after the Super Bowl. I just don't know 0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:04.160 how you can ask student athletes to play a full 0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:06.360 I mean, you just can't get a full schedule in 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:07.840 the spring and they turn right around and play a 0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:11.400 normal twenty twenty one, right, You just couldn't. Now, I 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.800 think what you could do in the Big Ten is 0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:17.720 even though you could play an eight to ten game schedule. 0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:21.480 I think, play a Big ten conference championship game and 0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:25.400 leave it at that. Maybe you have some sort of 0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:29.800 pseudo bowl game with the other conferences I guess if 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.200 they're still play mean, you know, have one, you know, 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:34.640 move the Rose Bowl. Heck, this is Big ten Pac twelve. 0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:36.640 This is probably the Rose Bowls dream in some sense. 0:03:37.160 --> 0:03:40.040 But I think there's a way you maybe could get 0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:43.200 an eight game schedule in the spring, and then maybe 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:47.920 you push back the fall and condense that schedule. Maybe 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:50.480 you start September twenty sixth, and you do what you 0:03:50.520 --> 0:03:52.200 were gonna do this year, but you do that in 0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:54.760 twenty twenty one, you play a ten game schedule and 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:57.680 then try and get your try and get your Big 0:03:57.680 --> 0:03:59.880 ten championship in, and then maybe try and get your playoff. 0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:02.840 Hopefully by twenty twenty two you've got a normal schedule 0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:07.080 back on hand. But by moving it to spring, I mean, 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.240 the team, it's gonna be really interesting what players decide 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:14.760 to do. Because I thought about this one. If you decide, okay, 0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:16.560 well I'm gonna play. I'm a senior. I gotta I've 0:04:16.560 --> 0:04:19.400 got to play. I've I've got to show what I've 0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:21.200 got through. I have a future in this game. I 0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:22.760 think I do, but I've got to show them that 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.720 on tape. So you play your games and all of 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:30.720 a sudden, the combine doesn't move and Michigan playsin. I mean, 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:34.040 you know they're gonna they're gonna make adjustments for that. 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:36.839 They'll look if the Big ten and all these conferences 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:38.920 are playing in the spring, they're moving the draft. They're 0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:42.200 okay to hold on though the season. But if it's 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:44.039 but if it's just a Big ten, IMPAC, twelver, they're 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:46.320 gonna move to combine. If the ACC, if the ACC 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:48.960 and the Big twelve and SEC play, are they gonna 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.240 move the combine. They won't move the comb I see it. 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.240 This is my feeling. They won't move the combine. But 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:55.960 so what about the combine. They'll still interview these guys, 0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:58.800 they'll interview them on campus. The most important thing you 0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:01.640 get out of the combine, though, is the most important 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:03.080 thing you get out of these players, and that's the 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:05.720 one thing none of us get and that's medicals. Now 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:10.880 you could do you could do another combine later on 0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:13.560 a medical combine. Now they do they do do that. 0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.640 They have players come up come back to Indye for 0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:19.880 rechecks all the time, so you could you could do 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:24.320 that medical recheck as such. So I do think there 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:26.800 is a way that you could figure this out, um 0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:30.240 with with the NFL. And I think the NFL would 0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:34.840 have a vested interest in doing thing, in moving things back. 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:36.880 So maybe they move the bat in the draft back 0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:40.040 to you know late, may give it another month. Let 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:42.600 these teams finish an eight game schedule, Let them get 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:45.839 clear this this season by I don't know, middle of March. 0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:50.320 Put the combine in middle of April. That gives you 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:52.320 four or five weeks. Then at that point to kind 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:54.240 of you know, get ready for the draft. Maybe you 0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:56.560 sneak a couple of pro days um in there if 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:58.960 you can. Maybe what you end up doing is doing 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:00.720 the pro days for the player years that do play 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.200 in the fall. Maybe you get those pro days done early, 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:05.760 you stagger everything, and you just move your draft back 0:06:05.800 --> 0:06:09.440 a month. And I think, listen, I think anything is doable. 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:13.600 It's just a matter of is it what what's the 0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:18.640 feasibility of players playing a full schedule in the spring 0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:20.840 and full you can't do that, so you're gonna have 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:24.440 to adjust that schedule in the spring to seven eight games, 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:27.839 maybe play a bowl game, and then you know, move 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:29.560 on to twenty twenty one, and then it just that 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:32.320 schedule back a little bit, just so that you have 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:35.440 more time in between the games you have in twenty 0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:38.279 early twenty twenty one and then late twenty twenty one. 0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:40.599 Good grief, it's confusing. Well, we always talk about it 0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:43.360 from a pro football perspective, right, the draft and the 0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:45.440 combine and everything. What about the guys who definitely aren't 0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:48.200 going to the NFL but they're good college football players, right, Yeah, 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:50.120 Like they might have the dream, but they really might 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:52.880 not and they know that it's gonna end. Let me 0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:54.320 ask you this, would you have wanted to play in 0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:57.640 the spring. Would you have said, Okay, yeah, we can't 0:06:57.680 --> 0:07:00.599 play in the fall here at Brown University, but we're 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:04.120 gonna play in the spring, so I'm in Hey, yeah, 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:06.240 you know, all right, you would Heck yeah, I would 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:09.560 have absolutely played. Uh, there's there's no doubt about it. Now. Obviously, 0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:12.520 natually we maybe have every year one or two guys 0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:15.160 that end up making it, but there are probably about 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:17.240 fifteen to twenty guys that will end up going to 0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:19.840 Pro Days and are going to uh, you know, get 0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:22.160 looks from teams that might end up maybe not even 0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:24.120 that many. Maybe it's like eight to ten that'll maybe 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:27.200 get an NFLPA invite, that will get invites to camp. 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:29.600 Those kind of things. We don't have many, And so 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:31.960 I don't think those players would have opted out in 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:33.720 any way, shape or form. I think, Yeah, when I 0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:36.440 have job search, if you're a senior, like spring is big, 0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:38.360 I gotta get that job. I gotta get my job 0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:40.680 when I graduate. Ye, Spring is when they look for 0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:43.400 at these football players, you know. And then here's another question, 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:45.840 college basketball. What's gonna happen with that? You're gonna have 0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:48.440 overlap because the college campuses are gonna be crazy. And 0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:50.120 here's one more note. I don't want to spend too 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:52.720 much more time, but I might have mentioned this last 0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:55.200 week a little bit in a different context, but I was. 0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:58.280 I was on with Penn State on I was on 0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:01.320 the phone with Penn State the entire university last week 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.200 trying to find a John Reed pick. And I went 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:07.400 to the website, was going through that athletic administration. They 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:10.800 have just acres of employees because it's not just a 0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:13.440 football program. It is all the other programs, and women's 0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:15.760 basketball is big there, and wrestling, and I used to 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.640 work in Happy Valley doing all sorts of broadcasting there 0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:23.120 early start to my career. And the amount of employees 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:25.720 they have that are affected by this because they're not 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:29.920 paid by field hockey revenue. They're paid by football revenue, 0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:33.440 and they got to be able to get that going somehow, 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:35.880 because if they don't play at all in twenty twenty, 0:08:35.920 --> 0:08:38.880 twenty twenty one this academic year, if you will, that 0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:42.320 is a huge hit. Now Penn State probably has big coffers, 0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:44.079 and people are like, just take it out of the endownment. 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:45.840 That's not a piggy bank you can just make a 0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:48.200 withdrawal from. It's like you're trying to take it from 0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:53.080 your IRA. It's worse. So it's a whole big mess, Johnny, 0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:55.679 and I really feel for the kids most of all, 0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:58.439 and I do feel for the employees because it's college 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:00.959 and it's just a different deal. At least the pro 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:04.000 leagues can afford all this testing and yeah bubbles or 0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:05.800 whatever else they need to try to make a go 0:09:05.920 --> 0:09:08.000 of it. That's the biggest thing I think is the 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:12.040 fact that the professional teams. I think there are two 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:13.959 major factors that I said on tech SAgs. I said 0:09:14.000 --> 0:09:16.120 with the NFL. First of all, in the NFL, you 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:18.600 have a commissioner in league office in thirty two teams 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:21.800 abide by whatever the commissioner League office saying college football. 0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:23.640 You don't have that. You got this conference making this decision. 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:26.320 You got this conference making that decision. It's totally anarchy 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.679 in college football. The other aspect of it is with 0:09:29.760 --> 0:09:36.319 college campuses because colleges have refused to acknowledge the actuality 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:39.840 that players are. Yes, they're student athletes. I get that. 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.480 The majority of them they go to college to get 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:46.240 an education, but there are a lot of them that listen, 0:09:46.360 --> 0:09:49.120 look at the time that they put into being college athletes. 0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:53.319 They're more than just student athletes. They're more than employees. 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:57.800 But the sham of amateur athletics comes into playing all this. 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:01.160 But in the NFL, so they got college students all 0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:03.679 around them and everything they do and go into classes, 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:06.000 so you have that, whereas NFL players you can kind 0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:07.920 of live in a semi bubble where they can go 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:10.960 to the stadium where they're supremely protected. They can go 0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:13.199 back home and that's it and there and they're doing 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:16.640 those two things, they're not surrounded by college kids all 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:18.480 over the place. And think about what you and I 0:10:18.520 --> 0:10:20.960 talk about all the time. You talked about this and 0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:22.679 kind of went on rant one day. When you go 0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:24.600 in and you do you do remotes, and you do 0:10:24.640 --> 0:10:26.600 those kind of things where you're going into restaurants or 0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:30.560 bars and they're playing music and it's loud. You've you've 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:32.600 got to sit there, And I mean that's the one 0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:35.920 way you transmit the virus is through that. Well, what 0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:37.880 happens when you get a college to and a few 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.880 a few pops in them, they get a little closer. 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:44.319 They don't worry about the mask. They're a little bit inhibited. 0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:46.959 And then they're just you've been to a college party, 0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:50.160 you know how it goes, and it's nuts. It's people 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:53.000 all on top of you. They're you're partially getting spill 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:56.200 all your face from some drunk guy um, you know, 0:10:56.240 --> 0:10:58.000 trying to talk to you about what's going on. And 0:10:58.040 --> 0:10:59.960 that's the virus out there. You're not gonna have that. 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.360 The NFL as long as guys are minded p's and q's, 0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:05.520 and they've got a financial they've got a financial stake 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:10.920 in keeping it, you know, on board and keeping to 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:14.360 the plan. So I think there are huge differences between 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:16.400 the NFL colle football From that regard, I do think 0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:18.280 you can do some things in the spring, but man, 0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:19.680 it's gonna be really tough. And Mark, you hit on 0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:21.920 a berry. Alvarez said today, he said, look, if we 0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:24.040 don't play football, this is gonna cost a lot of 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:25.600 people jobs. And he goes, it's gonna be the worst 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.400 fall of my life. And and you're You're absolutely right. 0:11:28.440 --> 0:11:30.920 You hit on it. Football and basketball pay the bills 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:32.960 for a lot of a lot of programs. And it's 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:36.480 really it's gonna staying a lot of programs at all 0:11:36.559 --> 0:11:40.360 levels throughout college college athletics. It's changed. This whole thing 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:43.120 has changed college sports and college athletics as we know 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:45.400 it going forward. It will never for a long time 0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:47.880 we might see realignment out of this because people are 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:50.880 so upset crazy. I know, you do stuff with tech SAgs. 0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:52.760 I mean, that's nuts. All right, Well, let's get to 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:55.320 some texts and stuff. I promised this. I tweeted it out. 0:11:55.840 --> 0:12:02.040 It's Texans Audio jukebox first of all, yes, and right 0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:06.040 on key and everything. That's the Texans All Access singers. 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:09.560 You do a great job, you people. All right, let's 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:12.959 get to Will Fuller. So I tweeted a picture of Will. 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:16.040 You talked about it. You saw Will a few weeks ago, 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:18.360 and he said, Will, he's jacked up, man. I mean 0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:20.640 you could see he's been working out. So I don't 0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:22.360 know if you saw the picture that I tweeted out, 0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:24.160 but you know he's just at the podium and you 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:27.120 could see that the arms look inflated, all right. That 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:29.160 you know, he put the bicycle pump out the arms 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:31.920 a little bit, and he did cut the hair as well. 0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:34.240 But the first thing, or one of the first things 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:37.400 that was discussed was, hey, no more DeAndre Hopkins. What 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:39.559 does that mean for the offense? Here's what Will had 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:43.880 to say, obviously, with How'm not being here anymore? Um, 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:46.520 you know that that's gonna open up things for for everybody. 0:12:46.520 --> 0:12:48.920 You know, he had a lot of targets and then 0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:51.720 so those targets gotta be filled with other guss So 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:53.720 you know, we're all gonna be able to get it done. 0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:56.000 And I'll Fleck is gonna be a great season as year. 0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:59.840 All right, positive approach there. You know, the ball Will 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.960 he's spread around and Will will certainly be one of 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:05.400 the beneficiaries of that. Johnny. We've talked about that all 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:08.000 offseason long. Yeah, I mean, think of high targets that 0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:10.160 you know, Hop had over the last couple of years. 0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:11.920 Just just take the last couple of years. I think 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:14.240 it was about three hundred and twenty ors somewhere in 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:16.960 that range over the last couple of years targets. Now 0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:19.280 you take us three hundred and twenty targets, and they're 0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:23.280 gonna have to be spread amongst a number of different guys. 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:25.440 I mean, we've talked about it at nauseum. Three or 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:29.400 four tight ends, two running backs, four or five wide receivers, 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:31.839 and those three hundred and twenty targets are gonna get 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:34.559 eaten up pretty quickly. It's not as if will is 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:36.960 gonna get the next three hundred and twenty targets over 0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:38.280 the next two years, or he's not gonna get one 0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:41.000 hundred and fifty targets this year. He's gonna end up 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:45.120 getting a decent share of what Hop you know, a 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:48.160 decent percentage of it. But he's not gonna get obviously 0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:50.880 all of them. But you have so many different weapons 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:54.520 that you can spread those out too. And I remember 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:59.000 reading a tweet somebody had put earlier this this spring, 0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.800 I think it was, and I remember seeing it was like, oh, well, 0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:04.520 what's what's Deshaun Watson gonna do on third down? But 0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:06.800 now he doesn't have DeAndre Hopkins And I wanted to 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:08.760 tweet beatback, but then I thought, well, maybe it's a 0:14:08.800 --> 0:14:10.600 little too snarky. He's like, he's gonna throw the ball 0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:13.680 the open guy. That's what he's gonna do. And he's 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:16.200 got more guys with the opportunity to get open, He'll 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:18.520 throw it to the open guy. That's that's what he's 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:20.800 gonna do this year. And it wasn't a failsafe that 0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:22.800 every single time he went to DeAndre Hopkins on third 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:24.960 down and sometimes when he got locked in I'm going 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:27.240 to DeAndre Hopkins on third down and ended up not 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:30.040 being a good thing. So if he is able to 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:33.520 on third down get through his progressions quickly read the defense, 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:35.280 which he does much better now than he even did 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:36.880 he did when he was a rookie. He did it 0:14:36.880 --> 0:14:38.320 pretty well when he's a rookie, But if he can 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:40.320 be that much better, he throws at the open guy, 0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:43.280 you get third down to move the sticks Yep, yep, 0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:45.880 you always said take the pocket change. Okay, more from 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:50.800 Will Fuller. He did cut his hair. Why how all 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:54.240 the stuff about the hair cut? Will Fuller definitely, um, 0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:57.160 I want to say that and that has anything to 0:14:57.160 --> 0:14:58.520 do with my hair. I just feel like I just 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:01.400 needed a new stars, just kind off my hair out. 0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:03.280 That was a good start to day. And uh, you know, 0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:06.200 like I said, I'm feeling good. So I don't really 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:07.320 know what I'm want to do with my hair, so 0:15:07.360 --> 0:15:11.760 I'm just taking it day by day. Yep. Mindset shift 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:14.320 for Will having the different kind of hair, he doesn't 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:16.760 know what he's gonna do with it. Uh, so you know, 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:18.840 good luck to him with that. I think it'll be faster. 0:15:19.280 --> 0:15:23.080 And he kept talking about his posture Johnny, his posture 0:15:23.560 --> 0:15:26.680 and how he was working with Ben Fairchild working out 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:29.520 with him, and kept talking about his postures. So Brandon 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:32.240 the social media guru from Sports Radio six ten asked 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:34.200 him to elaborate a little bit, and here's what will 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:36.160 Fuller had to say. Yeah, so this is this is 0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:38.920 something I've been dealing with for a long time, just 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:41.160 you know, just standing up, not even doing not even 0:15:41.200 --> 0:15:44.560 moving or just just standing my lower back would always 0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:47.320 you know, tighten up or bother me. So just I'll 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:50.800 just walk with like my bag extended. So just just 0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:53.080 trying to get that to like a normal posture. Uh, 0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:55.440 could could fix a lot of lower extremity injuries that 0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:58.440 I've been having. I've been dealing with. Boy, this was 0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:01.120 inspirational to me, Johnny, because I'm a sloucher and I 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:03.440 always have to fight against that. So hearing will talk 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:05.320 about posture, I was like, tarn it. I really got 0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:08.320 to do better with posture. And it's funny because like 0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:10.760 you know, he's he's talking about his posture. I'm like, 0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:14.720 you still run faster than any human. You know, It's incredible. 0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:17.920 But I thought that was pretty interesting. Maybe they found 0:16:17.920 --> 0:16:23.680 a little something here about something causing lower leg injuries. Well, Mark, 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:27.400 it hit home for me because that's probably what I'm 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:31.200 dealing with in some regards, is what because I feel 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:35.480 the pain down my leg from you know, and presumably 0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:37.200 and I go to the spot of doctor tomorrow to 0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:39.720 see for sure, but I've had that. I've had that 0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:41.640 pain in my leg before. Now, when I was in college, 0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:44.360 I had a bad hamstring injury on my left leg. 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:46.680 And that's pretty much where you feel it kind of 0:16:47.000 --> 0:16:49.600 down your left leg, about where your hamstring would be. 0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:52.920 So who's to say. When he kept when he kept 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:54.840 saying the word posture, it really was kind of hitting 0:16:54.840 --> 0:16:57.400 home for me, like, maybe that's an issue with me too, 0:16:57.600 --> 0:16:59.600 Maybe my posture needs to be better. It's something my 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:03.120 son is battled his entire life, like he has kind 0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:06.320 of this hunched over you know, We've talked to him 0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:08.920 about posture all the time, and he's had back issues 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:12.800 hill for a long time. So it really rang true 0:17:12.840 --> 0:17:14.600 to me when I heard him say that. I'm sure 0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:16.920 some people were like, posture, This dude runs four three. 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:21.000 I'll take his posture, but it absolutely no doubt in 0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:25.199 my mind, could affect your lower legs and your lower extremities. Now, 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:28.600 I do think that his knee injury from twenty eighteen, 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:30.840 and I could see it down on the sidelines last 0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:33.160 year during games and even practice, there would be times 0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:35.639 where I would see him kind of just grabbing that 0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:38.240 knee and just kind of massaging that knee. So I 0:17:38.320 --> 0:17:40.159 guarantee you he had a he had a couple of 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:42.720 things going on, but the posture aspect of and I 0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:44.399 heard that today, I was like, that's one hundred percent 0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:48.120 dead on, dead on for will Folder. Okay, let's get 0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:50.600 to tightus Howard, who also met with the media today 0:17:50.960 --> 0:17:53.600 and talked about getting back together with the old line. 0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:55.840 The boys are back in town. Here's tight as Howard. 0:17:56.080 --> 0:17:59.920 It feel pretty good, you know, follows. Yeah, pretty close group. 0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:02.359 You know with us, all of us be making and building. 0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:05.760 It felt goodes basically having five starters back something I 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:08.520 don't think has happened here in a long time or ever. 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:11.920 So you know, with us, keep building that chemistry. It's 0:18:11.920 --> 0:18:13.760 you know, we're gonna be the key for us. And 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:15.520 we got all five starts. Like I said, we got 0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:18.439 all five starters, and just for us to have that, 0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:20.679 you know, I know it's it's important for the offense. 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:24.359 Coach Devin, coach O'Brien, and I'm just looking forward to 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:26.120 see what we can do. You know, once we keep 0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:28.760 on building up these games together, I think we're gonna 0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:32.679 build something pretty special. Well, that sounded good from Titus Howard, 0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:36.400 and he mentioned afterwards he before he left the podium, 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:38.119 he gave a shout out to Chris Clark, who is 0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:40.439 a free agent. Chris Clark, who's had a couple of 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:42.560 tours of duty with the Houston Texas. What more here 0:18:42.600 --> 0:18:46.080 for Bradley Robie Johnny, And of course he's paired up 0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:49.400 with Gary and Kinley in the defensive backfield and these 0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:52.280 two now have some water under the bridge, some time together. 0:18:52.359 --> 0:18:55.080 Here's Robie. It's super cool for me, you know because 0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:56.879 when I was out of Higher State, he was my 0:18:56.960 --> 0:19:00.000 little brother. So you know, your last year the Ohio State, 0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:02.359 you have to get a rookie or a freshman and 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:04.359 he has to be a little brother and goes around 0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.239
