58
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 4: feels like a college town because I bade the campuses

59
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,600

60
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 5: So I love it so much.

61
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you're coming up through high school, like what

62
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 1: what made you choose Texas?

63
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 4: Just just a lot of prayer, bro Like, like you know,

64
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 4: my faith is my big it is my biggest thing.

65
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 4: So I just knew like that's where God wanted me

66
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 4: to go. And I mean what three years later, like

67
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 4: he was right. But it was more so like the

68
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 4: coaches there. I mean I had like my first running

69
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 4: back coach because Drake and he he was like the

70
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 4: best college running back coach in the country. I mean

71
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 4: he had like Ezekiel Elliott at Ohio State, like he

72
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 4: did so many he had so many guys. So when

73
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 4: I went to him, it was like a no brainer.

74
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 4: And my first year, like it was hard. It was hard,

75
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 4: bro because I had I had COVID, so it was

76
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 4: a COVID year for me. I came in in the summer,

77
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 4: so I didn't have like that spring that spring development.

78
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, but it was.

79
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 4: It was a good time, like just going there and

80
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 4: learning from him at first, and then obviously he got

81
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 4: a head coaching job and then.

82
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,119
Speaker 3: The rest was history because any other school that came

83
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 3: close State. So I hate to hear this.

84
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 4: I hate to hear this, but like so I silently

85
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 4: committed to Ohio State for a week.

86
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 3: Silently committed for the second time we've heard that.

87
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: I know.

88
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 5: It's like that little yeah for a week.

89
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: I'm just letting you know, yeah, that side girl talk again.

90
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 4: Here, That's what it was. And it was like it

91
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 4: was more so. It was more so like people and

92
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,320

Speaker 4: build the dynasty here, They're gonna be amazing, which could

95
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 4: have been true, but I just knew, like, you know,

96
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 4: I could, I could really go to Texas for you know,

97
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 4: a forty year decision and like not just football, but

98
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 4: I can become somebody here and always come back here

99
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 4: and always like feel like this is this was always

100
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 4: the place for me.

101
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 5: And then I mean that was the main decision.

102
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 4: But yeah for a week, man, And I told the

103
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,440

Speaker 3: I was gonna say, how when you decommitted? How was

105
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:30,119
Speaker 3: it was tough?

106
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 4: It was tough because I called I called the coaches

107
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 4: and I was like, hey, look like.

108

Speaker 4: I committed on Monday. Yeah, now Saturday, And I called them.

110
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 4: I was like, you know, this just isn't the place

111
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 4: for me. Like having to say that to like a

112
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 4: grown man and then him be like, what are you

113
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 4: talking about? Like I I sent all my running backs

114
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 4: away like you were only one was getting only guilt trip.

115
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 3: It was man, it was crazy.

116
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 2: It's got to be a heartbreak whenever that. Yeah, because

117
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 2: he's a fire. I mean, he was the man.

118
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 3: He is the man.

119
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's continued to stay yeah. Man, then they fizzle

120
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: out still staying the man.

121
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I appreciate it.

122
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like it was just it was it was just tough,

123
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 4: like to have that conversation as a seventeen year old kid.

124
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 3: And then him going the ran you still just be like,

125
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 3: I know, I'm sorry. I know.

126
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 4: It was like I was with my family and they're

127
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 4: just like like get.

128
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: Him on speakerphone, Yeah, this phone, I know, coach, I'm sorry, coach.

129
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 2: It was the biggest position coach and knowing like who

130
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 2: they've mentored coach, Yes, what was the big pivotal thing

131
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 2: for you?

132
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 4: Was it that it was a position coach because it's

133
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 4: just like you're gonna be with him your whole time,

134
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 4: so I think, and he and even just talking to

135
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 4: like other running backs you know before before I got there,

136
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 4: and like Reggie Bush, like his position coach in college

137
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 4: was that was his guy, Like he said, this is

138
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 4: the position coaches was most important because if you don't

139
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 4: agree with him and he doesn't agree with you, then

140
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 4: you're not playing and he doesn't trust you. And then

141
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 4: he's he talks to the head coach like he's the

142
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 4: most important important guy for yourself. So even hearing that,

143
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,679
Speaker 4: I was like, all right, so let me like actually

144
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 4: build a relationship. And then the crazy thing is like

145
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 4: nowadays in nil and stuff, Bro no, no relationships are

146
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 4: being built, like and then that's why you see so

147
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 4: many transfers and so many kids going to other places

148
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 4: because they're getting promised one thing and then they're not

149
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 4: producing on the field. So after one year and not

150
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 4: even after one year, after one some like like spring semester,

151
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 4: like they're leaving and I'm like, bro, Like, first of all,

152
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 4: it looks bad in my opinion, but it's like you

153
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 4: should have been building that relationship with the coach and

154
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 4: knowing you can have that trust with him before you

155
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 4: even get there, so you understand that when you're there,

156
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 4: like you know what's gonna come, you know what's about

157
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 4: to happen beforehand. So I think that's kind of where

158
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,560

00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 3: did I get here?

162
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:16,760

168
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 4: have an IO when I came. I know, so like

169
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 4: even like the under the table stuff, like it just

170
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 4: never came across an don't name names. Did anybody ever

171
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 4: try under the table stuff? And then they tried, they

172
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 4: tried with my coach, my high school coach, and he

173
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 4: was like, nah, like this isn't who like this is

174
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 4: you got the wrong kid? Like he's not going to

00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 4: come here off of begging or off of trying to

176
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 4: get him with some money.

177
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 5: So that he that that all got sent away.

178
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:00,520

Speaker 5: Like you have a you have a a s U.

185
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 3: No a s U over U of A though.

186
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 5: Like you like I feel like if a s.

187
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 4: U was was a consistently really good team, like they

188
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 4: would get everybody.

189
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: Because the thing that's wild to me about as U

190
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: is like they have all the makings to have a

191
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: good team. They have great weather, beautiful people. There, there's

192
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: a lot of nightlife you can just bring like, hey, yo,

193
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: we can create something beautiful. And you have so much fun.

194
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 3: That's to say, so much money in Phoenix, so.

195
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 4: Much you have and you have all these different areas

196
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 4: like sponsors that will sponsor you, but I.

197
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: Don't know it was never you talk about building relationships

198
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: and how it's become way more transactional in college coming

199
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: in the NFL. This is truly where it's a transactional business.

200
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: Like you can what's the phrase you use, you love

201
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: me but don't trust me? Yeah, yeah, I love you,

202
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: but don't ever trust me. Right, that's the kind of

203
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: the mindset of all these coaches. They want to build

204
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: a relationship. At any point. If you're not doing your job,

205
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: we'll see you later, no doubt.

206
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 3: Do you Are you aware.

207
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: Of that and still continue to build relationships regardless, Yeah.

208
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 4: I'm definitely. I'm definitely aware of it. You know, I've

209
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 4: seen that firsthand, Like you know, guys have been here

210
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 4: and then next day, like they're not here anymore. And

211
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 4: like my freshman, my freshman, my first year last year,

212
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 4: you know, just just during reco MINTI camp, like I

213
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 4: was with so many guys up to that point, and

214
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 4: then when we start with the team, then a lot

215
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 4: of them are here and it was like it was

216
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 4: like a shock to me. I was like, it's crazy.

217
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 4: I just built a relationship with these kids, like with

218
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 4: these dudes, and then now they're not here no more,

219
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 4: and it's like, okay, so now you kind of see

220
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 4: like where the business is. And then even even like

221
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 4: coaches too, next day they're here, one day they or not.

222
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 4: And I'm like, right, like this whole time we've been gelling.

223
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 4: And but I see it, like like that statement right there,

224
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 4: I feel it's true. But for me, I think it's

225
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 4: still important to you know, build a relationship with those

226
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 4: coaches because you know, like I was just telling him,

227
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 4: like like Lord Willing, I could stay here in my

228
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 4: whole career, but say I'm not, and say those coaches

229
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 4: are somewhere else, Like you built those relationships so like

230
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 4: they trust you, so when you're somewhere else and they're

231
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 4: somewhere else, then they'll then they'll.

232
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 3: Like bouch out for you and pick you up. Right.

233
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 4: So that's why I think it's like, that's why I

234
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 4: think you should keep keep the relationship out the whole time.

235
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 3: Talk Talk Talk Us through your rookie year.

236
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 2: I listen to your podcast you did on the Pivot,

237
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 2: which is right before the drafty you do go the

238
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 2: first round, which is awesome, and talk about that process

239
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,559
Speaker 2: getting draft in the first round and then kicking off

240
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: your rookie year.

241
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, I mean so so during that process, Like

242
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 4: it's a long process, so just from from when I'm

243
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 4: done with my last year in my junior year and

244
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 4: then up to the draft, Like those five months, five

245
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 4: six months are long, and it's repetitive of talking to coaches, going.

246
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 5: Doing combined training, doing interview training.

247
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 4: Like I'm doing so many things and.

248
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 5: For me, like I love to do other stuff.

249
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 4: So I want to be an actor when I'm done

250
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 4: playing football one day. And I've been doing like acting classes,

251
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 4: but that's those acting classes have been helping for the

252
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 4: interview training because like it gets you comfortable and talking

253
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 4: to coaches and get you comfortable and being in different

254
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 4: areas with a lot of people in one setting. So

255
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 4: like me having to go through that was was alarm process.

256
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 4: But and then on top of that, like I was

257
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 4: in the controversy of should you take a running back

258
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 4: in the top ten, Like yeah, should you you know, yes,

259
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 4: you know, he might have the talent, he might be

260
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 4: the most talented, but like should you still do it?

261
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 5: Should you invest in it?

262
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 4: So I was like hearing all that type of stuff too,

263
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 4: and like it was it was weird because like some

264
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 4: days I'll be walking walking just on the street and

265
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 4: you see a TV in a restaurant and it's like

266
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 4: your face is the one that's up there on like

267
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 4: should you do this?

268
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 3: Should you do that?

269
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 4: I'm like, and then that's the questions that I've been

270
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 4: getting asked. So like that was like a definitely a

271
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 4: different process for me. But I think when you do

272
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 4: get drafted, like that was, it's like the best frienally

273
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 4: ever obviously, and going to the draft like experiencing that,

274
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 4: you know, if you have the opportunity to do that,

275
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 4: I think you you most definitely should as a player.

276
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 4: But then when I got here, you know, that's when

277
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 4: we started started rookie mini camp and like that's what's

278
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 4: about to happen right now here, and it's crazy, like

279
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 4: that was a year ago, but like that was I

280
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 4: think that was like a really great process for me,

281
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 4: rooky mini camp because for me, like, yeah, I play more.

282
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 4: I played running back, but I play other positions too,

283
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 4: Like I play receiver, play slot. You can line me

284
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 4: up anywhere. So like I really appreciate, you know, Arthur

285
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 4: Smith for doing that to me, because you know, with

286
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 4: him with him doing that for me, like now where

287
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 4: I'm at, the game just like slowed down so much,

288
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 4: like instantly because I'm learning so many different things, Yeah,

289
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 4: from linebackers to coverages to everything. So and then obviously

290
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 4: with the season, like yes, it was definitely a blessing

291
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 4: of a season, you know, for myself, but even just learning,

292
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 4: you know, how guys are, how coaches are, like, it.

293
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 5: Was, it was definitely a fun a fun, fun time

294
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 5: for me.

295
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: Was it the hardest thing for you was the speed

296
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: of the game at first? Or what was the biggest

297
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: culture shock for you diving to the NFL your first

298
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: couple of games.

299
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, so it wasn't really the speed of the game,

300
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 4: because dudes are a little faster than college. But I

301
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 4: think it was more so like dudes are smarter in

302
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 4: the league, So like you're not going to see a

303
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 4: lot of guys like miss their gaps. You're not gonna

304
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 4: see a lot of guys under pursuit, and dudes are

305
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 4: always chasing the ball somewhere somehow. But I think you know,

306
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 4: when you when you get a grasp of it and

307
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 4: understand it, then then y'all you'll start to click. But

308
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 4: when you find your rhythm then then it's like you're

309
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 4: playing collegeball game.

310
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, when that camerangle came out, you're shifting around and

311
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 2: that shit was nasty.

312
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, and for me, So for me, like in college,

313
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 4: like I would bring out the shifts and stuff sometimes,

314
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 4: but like not a lot. But I think I think

315
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 4: now in the NFL it gives me way more freedom

316
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 4: to do that because dudes are coming from different angles

317
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 4: in different areas and you're always trying to get yards,

318
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 4: but you're always trying to find a way to like

319
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 4: make somebody miss because somebody's always right here.

320
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 3: So I get to like.

321
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 5: Obviously just slow a process down that I can.

322
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 4: I'll feel a defender coming any which way, and then

323
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 4: I know I have to do something real quick because

324
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 4: if I don't, like they're going to make a tackle.

325
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

326
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 4: So like breaking tackles for me is like it's a

327
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 4: fun thing, which is interesting.

328
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 3: Breaking tackle is a fun thing. Absolutely.

329
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 2: It's fascinating to hear him talk about it because it's

330
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 2: it's like clearly he's like, I've added more shift shiftingess

331
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 2: to my game. But basically because the game has gotten faster,

332
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 2: he's developed quicker.

333
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 5: There is That's exactly it.

334
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 4: So, like, because the game's gotten faster, like I have

335
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 4: to get faster in my process and.

336
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 3: Just set your head.

337
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 2: I'm going to get faster, and well even his instincts

338
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 2: it ends up coming.

339
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like it's like you're in the I don't

340
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 4: even know how to explain it if you could, if

341
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 4: I if I, if I could, It's like you're in a.

342
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 5: I havent seen a John Wick?

343
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you have seen John Wick? Yeah? Yeah, yeah.

344
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 4: So there's like the scene and like John wait two

345
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 4: and like they were all surrounded him and he was

346
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 4: just like looking around like trying to find anything, but

347
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 4: they were all attacking him. But like that's kind of

348
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 4: like what you're in when you're going up against and

349
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 4: you're figuring it out. You're figuring it out, just feeling

350
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 4: one thing to the next and versus fast. But then

351
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 4: when it slows down then it's like then that's when

352
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 4: it gets dangerous.

353
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 3: John Wick or Jason Bourne Wick.

354
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 5: Have you seen Jason?

355
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 3: I have? I have?

356
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 5: I have seen them all.

357
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 4: I haven't seen him, but okay, that's right, Okay, I

358
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 4: can't say I can't say that if I haven't seen

359
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 4: them all.

360
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 3: You can stand on business. I'm whatever you want.

361
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: I'm glad to have your opinion on busting with the boys. Yea,

362
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: who in a straight fight? John Wick is like, never

363
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: lost to me. He actually loses frequently.

364
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 3: He does.

365
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: He does frequently, gets a lot of help, but he.

366
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 5: Loses in a way that he looked like he won.

367
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 5: Like he does.

368
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 3: He does.

369
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: You got to go back and wants to Jason Bourde movies.

370
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: He never actually gets his ass beat. There's not one

371
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: scene he's like that tactical. He's always one step ahead

372
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: of the game. John Wick. How many times in those

373
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: movies JP was he just his ass was saved?

374
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 3: The last movie he's going up those damn stairs.

375
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: He gets his ass kicks seventeen times and gets his

376
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: ass saved.

377
00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 5: It's great, but it's a great movie.

378
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 3: No we did it. You talk about like things clicking

379
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 3: for you.

380
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: At what point the season last year, we're like, okay,

381
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: like I'm officially finding my speed. Rob is to touch

382
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: above everybody else.

383
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 4: So that first game of the season, I like had

384
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 4: this touchdown and when my first touchdown, like I made

385
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 4: this move and broke a couple of tackles. At that point,

386
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 4: I was like, oh shoot, like I could do this,

387
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 4: like at a high level but then the second game

388
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 4: we played the Packers, and like I walked on the

389
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 4: field and obviously like God gifted me with talent and everything,

390
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 4: but then it's like you walk on the field and

391
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 4: like everything's just slowing down. It's like slow motion, and

392
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 4: like I'm in the huddle, and when I like break

393
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 4: the huddle, it's like I'm backing up and they're like

394
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 4: moving slow.

395
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 3: It's like some it's insane.

396
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 4: And so when I when the ball snaps, like I'm

397
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 4: anticipating everything like quick quick, and I mean, that was

398
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 4: an awesome game, but it was just like the and

399
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 4: I never even explained this, but it was just like

400
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 4: the process of like what I was processing during that

401
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 4: game and then the rest of the season.

402
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 3: It was something that like I was like, man, this

403
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 3: is pretty cool.

404
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 4: And obviously like you got to watch a lot of

405
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 4: film and that's all that film study and everything like

406
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 4: that to anticipate everything, but actually like feeling it and

407
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,679
Speaker 4: seeing it that fast, it was pretty It was pretty.

408
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: Dope last year, Like on the outside looking in, I

409
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 2: want to say it was maybe the middle of the year.

410
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 2: Your workload would shift around and I feel like Coach

411
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: Smith would get questioned about it and wouldn't say too

412
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 2: much about anything happening behind the scenes or wouldn't really

413
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 2: tip off anything that's going on. Is there anything that

414
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 2: was happening in the middle of the year to where

415
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:49,199
Speaker 2: your workload was shifting or to where you're hearing the

416
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 2: same stuff the external noise and whatever conversations you're having

417
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 2: with coach smiss behind closed doors, like you know, people

418
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 2: who are curious about what was going down last year?

419
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 2: Is there any insight to that? Yes, Oh, it was

420
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 2: more so of me hearing the external noise. And like,

421
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,360
Speaker 2: you know, fantasy football is a big thing.

422
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 3: It's so like I had you, I had.

423
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 4: So like a lot of people had me on their

424
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 4: fantasy team, so we would get lot of your ms.

425
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 4: But yeah, like here in the middle of the season,

426
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 4: you know, so so Coch Smith was you know trying

427
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 4: to you know, make me comfortable in the game and

428
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 4: make me comfortable with situations, and you know he was

429
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 4: just you know, trying to protect me and do what

430
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 4: every coach like because what Coach Smith didn't want to

431
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 4: do was was Derrick Henry me year one, like twenty

432
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 4: eight carries, twenty five carries, Like you're taking all this

433
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 4: workload year one because he was trying to like gradually

434
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 4: get me, get me ready to eventually do all that

435
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 4: type of stuff.

436
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 3: But probably from all over the field.

437
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 4: You're right, and like at the be end of the season,

438
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 4: like those first five games, like it was I was

439
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 4: like rolling, and then like in the in the middle

440
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 4: of the season, it was more so, okay, it's like

441
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 4: let's get him, let's get him back to like gradually

442
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 4: kind of you know, getting them right.

443
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,120
Speaker 2: Were you injured, Whe's there stuff going on towards saying, hey,

444
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 2: we want to Okay, I know we're we're picking up

445
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 2: your workload, like let's kind of maybe mitigate some of

446
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 2: the reps in the middle of the year and start

447
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 2: to make a run at the end of the year.

448
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,199
Speaker 4: So yeah, but it was that, but it wasn't like

449
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 4: because of the injury and at the same time, like

450
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 4: my workload was becoming excessive, and you know, I was

451
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 4: I was running go routes, I was motioning, I was

452
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 4: doing all types of stuff, running the football, blocking in

453
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 4: on third down. And you know, for me, like we

454
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 4: have Tyler Algiers, he's the other running back, he's super good,

455
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 4: and you know, we played off each other really well,

456
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 4: and which obviously helped both of us a lot, but

457
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 4: you know, it was more so like doing all those

458
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 4: extra things to to be the decoy for the defense,

459
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 4: you know, because if I go on motion and then

460
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 4: that everybody is up, yeah, then it would shift on

461
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 4: the defense and it could open somebody else up. So

462
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,200
Speaker 4: like that was that was where his thinking was. And yeah,

463
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 4: it you know, my worklow wasn't a lot like it.

464
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,479
Speaker 4: It would decrease in terms of like getting carries and stuff,

465
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 4: but he was just trying to, you know, gradually get

466
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 4: me right in different situations. Because obviously like towards the

467
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 4: end of the season and then it started picking up again,

468
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 4: but it was just at like the middle point of

469
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:26,120
Speaker 4: the season.

470
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 3: That that's where his and that's where his mind was at.

471
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 3: Now are you guys talking through this wall. It's all

472
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 3: going down as yah.

473
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, like we're all we were always on the same page.

474
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 4: We're always on the same page. Obviously everybody else didn't

475
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,719
Speaker 4: agree with it, but we always knew, you know, what

476
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 4: the plan was. And he told me what the plan

477
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 4: was before the season even started, and I was perfectly

478
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 4: okay with it, but and everybody was. But I mean,

479
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 4: as you start getting questions from the media, and as

480
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,439
Speaker 4: you start going on like there it is, yeah, there

481
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 4: it is. And then you have you have fantasy you

482
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 4: know players, you know, and on social media like what's

483
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 4: going on?

484
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 5: What was happening?

485
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 3: Like, so it.

486
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 4: All tied in, but we were always like on the

487
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 4: same page. And then towards the end of the season,

488
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 4: that's what everything started to pay back up.

489
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you uh, when this is all going down

490
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 1: and like you're getting this heavy workload. Then towards like

491
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: the middle lull, Yeah, everyone started to ask questions. At

492
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: any point, did you want to be like, hey, this

493
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: is part of the plan. Did you ever want to

494
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: speak up for that situation or you just kind of

495
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 1: had to sit back and let the noise be noise.

496
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 4: I just kind of sat back and let let the

497
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 4: noise be noise, and you know, yeah, I'll get media

498
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 4: questions from the media, and I was just kind of

499
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 4: tell them like like you just said, like you know,

500
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 4: this is all part of the process. You know, this

501
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 4: all guy's plan, like which it was like and just

502
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 4: for me just understanding mentally and physically where where I

503
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 4: was at. But then you know, when when when things

504
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 4: did start you know, picking up. Then then we saw

505
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 4: the end the vision of it. But that middle like

506
00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 4: three four weeks, it was like yeah, like what's happening,

507
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 4: and but we we knew the whole time, like where

508
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 4: we were going with it.

509
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 2: What kind of jump do you see yourself making going

510
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 2: into year two? Like what are your what are your

511
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 2: goals and aspirations for b Jhon Robinson?

512
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, obviously, Bro like to to elevate as

513
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 4: a teammate. So I want to be like I want

514
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 4: to leave by example in a way that you know,

515
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 4: everybody will be on the same page, you know what

516
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 4: I'm doing, and you know, for me, I think it

517
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 4: was really good to have, you know, the vets that

518
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 4: we did have last year, because I learned so much

519
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 4: from them. Like even like Kalays Campbell like Bro, like

520
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 4: he's ultimately he's got that voice too, got that voice.

521
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

522
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 4: Yeah. He would just sit down with me, Like he

523
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 4: sat down with me at the end of the season

524
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 4: and he was like, yo, be like you can really

525
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 4: be the best running back in the NFL for a

526
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,360
Speaker 4: long time, Bro, And he was saying, but you shouldn't

527
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 4: go in every day saying that like you obviously you're

528
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,679
Speaker 4: very humble, but you should. You should just do it

529
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,919
Speaker 4: by your work and just show everybody because for me,

530
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 4: like I'm big with finishing, so like after a run,

531
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 4: I finished always in the end zone. Sometimes coaches hate that,

532
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 4: but you know my coaches like are cool, like they

533
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 4: love it because it shows everybody else like that's what

534
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 4: we got to do. And you know, for me, I

535
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 4: think just me doing that type of stuff in practice

536
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 4: and you know, even just asking questions to other players

537
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 4: on what their goals are and where they want to

538
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 4: see each other because obviously I think as a team,

539
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 4: you know, we want to win the super Bowl, like

540
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 4: like but that's what everybody says, Like everybody's like we

541
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 4: want to win super Bowl.

542
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 5: We want super Bowl. But it's like what are you

543
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 5: going to do?

544
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 4: You know as a team, you know, and when nobody's watching,

545
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 4: and you know, I think team dinners like stuff like

546
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 4: that are always a big thing because you build so

547
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 4: much chemistry. And that's why I appreciate like even Kirk,

548
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 4: because we be out there, you know, grinding every single

549
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 4: day on offense, like trying to just build the most

550
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 4: chemistry because obviously we're on the field, then that's what

551
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 4: what we're trying to do is be great and then

552
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 4: for me, like, yeah, obviously I have these goals that

553
00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 4: I that I set for myself, and I set stronomical goals,

554
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 4: like I think I even said an interview that I

555
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 4: want to get two thousand yards, but like it wasn't

556
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 4: me saying that. It was just the goal I have

557
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 4: to set for myself because obviously, like we have Tyler

558
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 4: al Jerry, like we have you know that one two punch,

559
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 4: and I just want us to just kill the.

560
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 2: You're not saying it to diminish anything else. You're saying like, yeah,

561
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get two.

562
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 3: K facts facts, So you can take that and run

563
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 3: with that quite a bit.

564
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, with uh you brought up Kirk cousins, like

565
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: what was your reaction when Atlanta signed Kirk and how

566
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 1: has your relationship grown since.

567
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,919
Speaker 3: You've met him? Man? I mean I was happy.

568
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 4: Man, I was happy, you know, just because like, yeah,

569
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 4: I mean I feel like, yeah, he is a top

570
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 4: ten quarterback. But you know, I think because you know,

571
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 4: with his faith, just how good of a dude he

572
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 4: is to other people, to his teammates.

573
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 5: That's why I was excited, Like I knew he can.

574
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 4: Come in here and you know, Joe right away with

575
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,880
Speaker 4: all of us because you know, I think the cool

576
00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 4: thing that Terry obviously Raheem, Arthur Blank, Arthur Smith, what

577
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 4: they all did is like they got really talented dudes,

578
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 4: but they got really good dudes at the same time.

579
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 4: And obviously he's a good dude. So I think he

580
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 4: would come in here and you know, immediately like Joe

581
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 4: with the team, and that's that's really what he did.

582
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 4: And I mean our relationship is strong already, and you know,

583
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 4: just having talks with him and understanding like where his

584
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 4: his vision is and you know where he's coming from

585
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 4: and how you know, he wants everybody on the offense

586
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 4: to you know, have the best seasons that they've ever had.

587
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,879
Speaker 4: Like that's that's huge for a quarterback coming in because obviously,

588
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 4: you know, when you're a quarterback, like you know, you

589
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 4: want that like.

590
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 3: Me, me me type of glory.

591
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 4: But with him, it's like it's all of us and

592
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 4: we're off on the eat in this offense.

593
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 2: He's a worker tothing else, even a meeting proven meetings, like.

594
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 4: Like he's telling you exactly how he how he sees it,

595
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 4: how he wants it, how it should be and I

596
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 4: mean I never had that, so like having that and

597
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 4: even like in practice, he'd be like, this is where

598
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,199
Speaker 4: where it should go. This is where how how I

599
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,880
Speaker 4: see it? And he he hits it there every time

600
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 4: and it's like this is the game change right here.

601
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 3: So seen your facial expression to about Kirk.

602
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's exciting. Seen crypt chains yet, like the change.

Speaker 2: the mustard. Let's talk about the brand of the mustard.

610
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, so the mustard came out like two years ago,

611
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 4: and you know, it was all it was all from

612
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 4: like an idea of two guys, David and Craig. They

613
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 4: are the other owners of the mustard too, and they

614
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 4: came with this like whole presentation of like.

615
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 5: What it it's going to become, like what it should be.

616
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 4: This is before anything, and we're like in the top

617
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:07,919
Speaker 4: golf like meeting room. So they came with it and

618
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 4: at first I was like, it's kind of cheesy. Lokey

619
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 4: like you know that, you know this is a little weird,

620
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 4: but uh like they had like billboards and like murals

621
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 4: and they had like it's selling in stores, and I

622
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 4: was like, yeah, this sounds really good, but I mean

623
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 4: I just don't know how it's gonna be, so like.

624
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 3: Is it gonna sell?

625
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 5: It's gonna sell.

626
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:28,679
Speaker 3: Yeah.

627
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 4: So the two months later it came out in that summer,

628
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 4: and you know, it was like a big thing, like

629
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 4: the pr and everything, and people were like like this

630
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 4: dude has his own mustard. Like that's kind of where

631
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 4: it was at first, and so people started buying it

632
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 4: online and then like a whole bunch of people like

633
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 4: we saw we saw an order cell from like a

634
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 4: little bit to like it just skyrocketed out of the blue.

635
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 5: And so we like made merch we.

636
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 4: Made all types of stuff, and I think the first

637
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 4: six once it was out and it was during that

638
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 4: football season, it was like the highest selling condiment in

639
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 4: the US.

640
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 5: What congrats on that.

641
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 3: It was pretty cool.

642
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: That's a big game too. Some big dogs in that game, Hines, Yeah, big,

643
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: some big dogs.

644
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 4: And it's crazy because you know, even even in like

645
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 4: the grocery stores, like in Austin. Obviously we're trying to

646
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 4: get it across the country and in every grocery store.

647
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 4: But like every week you'll go to the grocery store

648
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 4: and it's gone, and then you'll have every other condiment

649
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 4: still there and they're just like keep reloading it. So

650
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 4: and it's cool because I mean people like when they

651
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 4: get the mustard, like they'll like take a picture with it,

652
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 4: like they're like happy about it. Like you don't, You're

653
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 4: not going to Hines you catch up or Ruster like like.

654
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 1: Settle, you know, and it's like it's not cool, but.

655
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 4: It about to buy it up. Maybe the probably they did,

656
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 4: like obviously like somebody, you're open.

657
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 2: For business business, have you done anything creative marketing wise

658
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 2: yourself outside of like marketing planes, Like right now I'm

659
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 2: thinking to myself.

660
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 3: Is pretty creative. He needs to have the mustard, like you.

661
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 2: Know, somebody one of the equipment guys has in the bag,

662
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 2: but he has it out on the field. Not out

663
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 2: on the field, but on the sideline and after he scores,

664
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 2: it's like he jogs over to the sideline just takes

665
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 2: a shot of the mustard, which that right there is

666
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 2: just I mean, so there's your advertising. Yeah, if you

667
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,959
Speaker 2: have water, just a bottle, you just go right back.

668
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 2: It's like Marshawn eating the skittles.

669
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 5: That's a matter of fact. Like that one's free.

670
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 4: We've done like marketing stuff obviously with the commercials and stuff,

671
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 4: but that one right there, like after a touchdown and

672
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 4: like somebody just throw it in the like throw it

673
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 4: from the crowd, like throw it at me.

674
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 5: You know, we can do a lot in the sideline.

675
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, get a couple throw to the fans and let

676
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 3: them do it.

677
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 1: Let them do it, bro keep it under the goalpust

678
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: a hot dog and the mustard score touch down, put

679
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: the mustard.

680
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,680

00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 1: that after talking so nice.

814
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, your team, your team, I am. I am close everybody.

815
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 2: How about your top three running backs in the NFL

816
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 2: right now? And if you could give a little synopsis

817
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 2: on what makes him great?

818
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 3: All right?

819
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:44,799
Speaker 5: Then I'm I'm well, my first one.

820
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 4: Number one is christ McCaffrey just because, like you know,

821
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 4: his his stopping start is incredible, and you know, I

822
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 4: watch this game so much, like I compare my game

823
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 4: to his just the most because I feel like we

824
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,880
Speaker 4: do the most similar of So I'm gonna say, I'm

825
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 4: gonna say him, and then I'm gonna say Brice Hall

826
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 4: is the other one, okay, just because like his patience,

827
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,720
Speaker 4: how he you know, invades, breaking tackles, how he getting

828
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 4: he still has a long speed, He's the other one.

829
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 5: And then my third I'm gonna have to go with

830
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 5: I'm gonna have to go with.

831
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 3: Who probably Saquon.

832
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, I know his like his situation has

833
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 4: been tough, but like I think just raw just give

834
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 4: the talent for a running back, I think he got

835
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 4: that and his like lateral movement, how he can bend

836
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 4: and make cuts still, like how big he is, Like

837
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 4: I think he's he's the other one.

838
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 3: So it's a solid list. That's a good list.

839
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 5: I want to say those three, that's a good list.

840
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 5: Put myself in there.

841
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 3: The boy. I know, I was thinking that tale, but

842
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 3: I didn't want to be such a home Henery. Ah see.

843
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: Actually I mean him in his prime, Like you know,

844
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 1: he's he's Hall of Famer. Yeah he's yeah, most definitely

845
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 1: he had two k Yeah, he did behind this offensive

846
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 1: line that year.

847
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 3: Five games. What's up? I'll take that. Come on, take

848
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 3: credit for that, though.

849
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,439
Speaker 5: Who's who's your top three?

850
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 4: Uh?

851
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 3: Just podcasters? Yeah matter podcast podcasters, rogans Rogan's one.

852
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,439
Speaker 5: But what makes him the one?

853
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 1: Like his ultimate curiosity, he's so present and he's so

854
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: his ability to be so curious about the subject at

855
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: hand and be able to break that down and have

856
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 1: information about it is I think that's a that's a

857
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 1: one of one talent in his range.

858
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,800
Speaker 2: I mean, he can literally crazy range anybody on and

859
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 2: he does his he does his prep work.

860
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 3: He's what what was that supposed to go three first?

861
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 5: But he's yeah, yeah Brogan, God, what about full seeing Like, yeah, dogs.

862
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:16,439
Speaker 1: Those guys are awesome. I don't know, but like, what's

863
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 1: the category that we're talking about when it comes to

864
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 1: podcasts like that? Okay, okay, just whatever the oh I'm

865
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,839
Speaker 1: talking about. There's like so many podcasts. And then Milk

866
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: Boys have a massive audience. They do a great job

867
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: and their content is amazing. But are we talking about uh,

868
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 1: their interviews, how they approach the interview, those types of things,

869
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 1: because then I think it does change a little bit

870
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 1: because their their audience is insane.

871
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 3: Okay, and those guys, they are good dudes. And then

872
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 3: I would say, just like interviews.

873
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 2: Interviews, just being the well, like I would say, you

874
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 2: heard of him, Okay, armchair quarterback, he's our armchair expert.

875
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 3: He's really good man who I found myself listening to

876
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 3: a lot. I mean THEO there. And I feel like

877
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 3: he's developed over time too.

878
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 2: He's a lot more comedy in the start, because obviously

879
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 2: he's a comedian, but I feel like he's starting to

880
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,840
Speaker 2: get he's starting to create a range and a variety

881
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 2: for himself where he's handling himself well in all these conversations.

882
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 3: I like that is he like in Atlanta he's in Nae. Yeah, Nashville.

883
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 3: I think he's put between the Nashville maybe l A,

884
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 3: I'm not sure. Yeah, he was doing Nashville. He was

885
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 3: doing the pod with the shop right for a minute.

886
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, that's a solid three. You got Rogan and

887
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:40,240
Speaker 2: armchair Expert back Shepherd that I've never seen armer expert

888
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 2: one time, but I'll co sign it. What's another what's

889
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 2: to think because Shoals has a really good one.

890
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but I've seen I've seen his clips. I've

891
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 1: never really watched the show. I think he's really good.

892
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's hard. I know there's something.

893
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't digest a whole lot. I mean, and

894
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 2: that's based on like what I listen to, Like we

895
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 2: can't we can't not talk about the boys part of

896
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 2: my take.

897
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 3: P m T.

898
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 2: They're like the number one sports pod. They have been

899
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 2: for a long time. Kelsey Brothers have a great pod.

900
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 3: That's a good one.

901
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're massive spin chickles all Barcel everybody with Barsel

902
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 2: listening all the Barcel pods. Yeah, pm T probably is

903
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 2: like they would probably be up there with Rogan Poppy too. Yeah,

904
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,359
Speaker 2: I mean, they don't see him being at the top

905
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 2: for as long as as long as they have each

906
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 2: other having the same sense of humor, like they do

907
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 2: a great job.

908
00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's that's there.

909
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 4: You go.

910
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 3: There's there's your top whatever.

911
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: Top twenty six, right, there was your top left tackles. Okay,

912
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 1: my top left tackles. Trent Williams is one easy above

913
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:52,359
Speaker 1: and beyond dog man the best one. He's the best one.

914
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 1: I wish I had a list to look at. I'm

915
00:42:59,239 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 1: trying to go through.

916
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 3: Okay, Matthews, I think.

917
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:12,839
Speaker 1: Seattle, that's West. Tunsil is probably in there. Yeah, I'm

918
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: just trying to run through it all because like, uh,

919
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 1: I think Jake's great. I think who's hot, Tunsil, Houston

920
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 1: is Tunsil, he's nasty.

921
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:26,440
Speaker 3: Who's saints?

922
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:28,320
Speaker 5: They got nobody?

923
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:32,440
Speaker 3: Well, no, respective, I'm just trying to think of names. Yeah,

924
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 3: let me do I'll do.

925
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:43,760
Speaker 1: Trent Tunsil. Let me get Dean Dawkins for three. Honorable

926
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,759
Speaker 1: mention to our boy, Jake Matthews. I still hold a

927
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: lot of animosity towards him.

928
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 3: Room.

929
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:54,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, we were sitting like in a room outside of

930
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 1: Radio City and we kind of like started talking because

931
00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: we were both doing the you know, top tackles in

932
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 1: the drive, kind of sizing each other up a little bit,

933
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 1: but like being respectful the same guy. I'm kind of

934
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: both doing the uncomfortable thing together. And so I was like, Hey,

935
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 1: where do you want to go? And he's like, honestly,

936
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 1: he kind of looks around as if somebod's actually listening

937
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 1: to us for tackles.

938
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:11,879
Speaker 3: He's like, Atlanta would be sick. I was like, dude, same.

939
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 1: And then that Monday before the draft, Atlanta flew to

940
00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,319
Speaker 1: me and they're like, if you're there at six, be ready,

941
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'll be there. I will be there

942
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 1: around six comes around and I'm like fired up, and

943
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,839
Speaker 1: the phone starts ringing on Jake Matthew's table and he's

944
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:30,360
Speaker 1: like two tables away from me too, and his family

945
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 1: started celebrating. I was so fucking mad. I was so

946
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 1: tight because that's where I wanted to go. I was like,

947
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 1: al sick flower Branch. I came down here, checked it out.

948
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: Arthur Blank was kind of dope too. Seems like a

949
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,320
Speaker 1: couple of guys not himself personally. I made the re

950
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 1: correct phone calls to get things done, and I respect

951
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 1: that if you're able to get away with that, and

952
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 1: so for me, I was like, yeah, I'd be kind

953
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 1: of sick. And then Titans called me and I was

954
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: mad about that because they had two tackles. I was

955
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: mad as about it. Wait, so you're with Arthur Smith.

956
00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's that's our guy.

957
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 3: He was one of the boys.

958
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: Man, he was a control guy when I first got there. Yeah,

959
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 1: we would do these pursuit drills where they like hold

960
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 1: up balls in the corner of the end zones and

961
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 1: we would just run and try to punch the ball

962
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 1: out and I would literally beat the ship up.

963
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 3: I would run about tackling the ground, start punching the ball.

964
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 5: Brother.

965
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,600

00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,359
Speaker 4: go with my high school coach, coach Benet. Then it's Bene.

988
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:29,960
Speaker 4: He's kind of like Coach Smith just off like like

989
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:33,000
Speaker 4: he's very he's like the greatest coach in Arizona history

990
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 4: high school coach Charlie Rag.

991
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:40,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, go ahead, all right, just arguing about whatever.

992
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 4: But you know, even even just him like developed being

993
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,279

994
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:49,759
Speaker 4: man and just like be a great kid.

995
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 3: He was that guy.

996
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 4: Uh. But then number two, I'm gonna have to go

997
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 4: ahead Coach Choice to Shark Choice. He was my coach

998
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:02,160
Speaker 4: at Texas, running back coach in Texas. I mean, like

999
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:06,319
Speaker 4: his energy is like awesome, Like I mean, he brought

1000
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:11,359
Speaker 4: about it every day every day and then watch I bet,

1001
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:12,880
Speaker 4: I bet at the end of all this, like Rahim

1002
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 4: is gonna be my number one. But I'm gonna say

1003
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:19,840
Speaker 4: he's already like Danner up there, bro, like Rahiem is

1004
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 4: fun for a month and he's already like that guy.

1005
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:31,280
Speaker 4: I mean just his presence and like obviously like he's

1006
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,880
Speaker 4: gonna coach you like and get everything out of you,

1007
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 4: but he's gonna do it with you like you be

1008
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 4: seeing him on the field like in drills, like in

1009
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 4: the drill, and I'm like, I just never had a

1010
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:46,080
Speaker 4: coach like that before. And then even my coach Petriot,

1011
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,279
Speaker 4: he's I guess he'd be like my number three and

1012
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 4: he's my running back coach now and.

1013
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:54,359
Speaker 3: Like my dog for life, that no doubt, I hear.

1014
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:55,800
Speaker 3: I gotta I have a question.

1015
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 2: People would assume that a cat like yourself, five star recruit, best,

1016
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:07,160
Speaker 2: you know, drafted top ten, you're the man even currently

1017
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 2: that somebody like you wouldn't have faced a lot of adversity.

1018
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 2: What are one of the more trying times you've had

1019
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 2: in your career as a football player.

1020
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, while I faced like I saw for me,

1021
00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 4: I think I faced a lot of adversity just going

1022
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 4: to Texas and not having a winning team, Like when

1023
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:31,279
Speaker 4: we would lose, like a lot of it would be

1024
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 4: on me, and you know, like we would go eight

1025
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:38,800
Speaker 4: and five and then it would be like nine to

1026
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:41,400
Speaker 4: four or something like that, like that's a bad season,

1027
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 4: like Texas and for me being like the leader of

1028
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,920
Speaker 4: the team, like who people watch like you know it

1029
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:49,879
Speaker 4: was had the guy?

1030
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 3: Yeah it was.

1031
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 4: It was hard, like and sometimes I would catch myself

1032
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 4: like going to Twitter and seeing what people would say

1033
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 4: and type in.

1034
00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:01,720
Speaker 3: Your name's all been there? You shouldn't you know, you shouldn't.

1035
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:03,440
Speaker 4: I'm like I should not be doing this, but like

1036
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 4: and I'm glad I did it then because obviously I

1037
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 4: trickled out and now I don't care like care people think.

1038
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,360
Speaker 3: But like then it was like, all right, what's happening?

1039
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 3: Like what did I do? What's the small mess up

1040
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 3: that I did to make this kind of had a

1041
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 3: nice game and see people.

1042
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah I had a nice game, but I still

1043
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 4: want to see, like what's it? So it's like all

1044
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,160
Speaker 4: that kind of stuff was was a learning lesson for me.

1045
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 4: But it would be like more adversity of like trying

1046
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 4: to get teammates on the same page as you, and

1047
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:43,280
Speaker 4: sometimes like teammates went to went to the school because

1048
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 4: of just the name, like they weren't invested in in

1049
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:49,719
Speaker 4: the in the in the play, like they just want

1050
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,000
Speaker 4: because they want to go to frat parties and say

1051
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 4: I'm a football player, like that's all. And I was like,

1052
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 4: that's cool, but I don't think you're really getting none

1053
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 4: out of it by doing that, Like why don't you

1054
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 4: want to be a great player? Didn't do it, Like

1055
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:06,640
Speaker 4: I just didn't know where where the where their minds

1056
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:11,680
Speaker 4: were up. Yeah, they're messed up. And then even you

1057
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,640
Speaker 4: know even here, like man, this team is is so tight,

1058
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 4: that we're so close, and like just some of those

1059
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:22,000
Speaker 4: heartbreaking like losses from last year, like it was it was,

1060
00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,440
Speaker 4: you know, really hard because obviously, like those are the

1061
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 4: ones that you want and those are the wins that

1062
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,360
Speaker 4: you want. But you know, with the NFL, like we

1063
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 4: we would put ourselves in in some situations where it

1064
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 4: was just hard to come out of from from some

1065
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 4: of those games, and then it would end up in

1066
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 4: a two point loss, three point loss, and it's just

1067
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:41,719
Speaker 4: like we know if we won that game, like we

1068
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 4: would be like easily in the playoffs. But it's like

1069
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 4: those little things that I had to learn from and

1070
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:53,880
Speaker 4: come over because I think, you know, God plans everything.

1071
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,520
Speaker 4: You know, you have a setback for huge setups for everything.

1072
00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,400
Speaker 4: So like that's where that's where the setup really is,

1073
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:02,600
Speaker 4: and that's where where we're right now. And I feel

1074
00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:04,239
Speaker 4: like where we're right now is where the setup is

1075
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:04,920
Speaker 4: is happening.

1076
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, so man, we appreciate you coming on.

1077
00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:10,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can tell that you love ball like you know,

1078
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:12,640
Speaker 2: being a good teammate, you care, which is going to

1079
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:14,399
Speaker 2: take you a long way, Like you know, there's there

1080
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,839
Speaker 2: you you you've probably seen it already. There's just guys

1081
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,640
Speaker 2: in the league that you know, they don't take losses hard.

1082
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 2: They don't see it that way. They don't come in

1083
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:23,040
Speaker 2: the next day at work and you're just like, man,

1084
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 2: why don't you care about this the same way I

1085
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 2: feel like I'm caring.

1086
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:27,200
Speaker 5: About this, no doubt, no doubt.

1087
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:28,960
