27
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 5: you know, Drew, I'm I'm a defensive guy with a

28
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 5: defensive mindset. And to watch it, first of all, to

29
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 5: watch d law.

30
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 2: Get his his ring, how cool was that?

31
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 5: It was?

32
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 6: Man?

33
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 5: It was special. It was special in the sense that,

34
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 5: you know, he spent time here in Dallas, and you know,

35
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 5: the focus has never really been on the defensive side

36
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 5: of the ball. It's always been on the office side

37
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 5: of the ball. And he knew that. Oh look at that,

38
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 5: that's in the Dallas paper.

39
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 3: Looking shark.

40
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 5: Yeah. Man, But you know he's always kind of had

41
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 5: that you know, ship his shoulder, and you know, he's

42
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 5: always wanted to win from on the defense side of

43
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 5: the ball. So it was good. It was It was

44
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 5: good to see him land in the position of place

45
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 5: that he was comfortable in, that accepted him for who

46
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 5: he was. And now he has a super Bowl range.

47
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 4: And took advantage of his skills and that he brought

48
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 4: and that was that piece they needed. But you know,

49
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 4: we can talk about that Super Bowl because you know,

50
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 4: I played eleven years in the NFL. You played eleven twelve,

51
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 4: you know, and three Super Bowls, And I'm thinking.

52
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 5: About what really got us to the Super Bowl.

53
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 4: And we had good offense twenty eight twenty nine to

54
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 4: thirty points a game, but the D was giving us

55
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 4: that ball in good field position and everything. And I've

56
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 4: come to the conclusion, if you want to win in

57
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 4: this league, you can be all that with the offense.

58
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 4: And I'm an offensive guy, but if you don't have

59
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 4: that D that can get that ball back for you, exactly,

60
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 4: keep people out the end zone, make them kick field

61
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 4: goals instead of tds, right.

62
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 5: And it's not always just takeaways. Sometimes it's just winning

63
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 5: on third down. And it becomes a middle position game.

64
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 5: And when you look at the personnel of any team,

65
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 5: most of those same defensive players are playing on the

66
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 5: specialty teams as well, so they're they're playing on two

67
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 5: phases a game. We always talk about you got to

68
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 5: at least win two phases, two of the three phases, right,

69
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 5: And when you have a gritty defense and guys who

70
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 5: want to play the alpha mentality and they want to

71
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 5: get stops, and there's a pride, a little pride in them,

72
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 5: the fact that they don't want to give up anything

73
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 5: and in any situation, especially in the playoffs, you always

74
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 5: see even the great offenses sometimes they may have some

75
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 5: glitches sometimes that they know the timing is not right,

76
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,679
Speaker 5: they get out on third down, and then they got

77
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 5: to reset because other things based on timing, timing, timing

78
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 5: with offense, and they got to get comfortable with themselves.

79
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 5: And then you'll see a really great offense. They may

80
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 5: have sputter, sputter, sputter, and then they take off at

81
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 5: some point. Well, the great defense is you know, the

82
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 5: one thing about having a really good defense is that

83
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 5: they are going to win on third down and they're

84
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 5: gonna give your offense more opportunities to get started, get

85
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 5: comfortable with itself, and then you get going on offense

86
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 5: side of all. But you know, similar to what we

87
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 5: did in the early nineties is we ran the ball consistently, consistently, consistently,

88
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 5: and we played good defense, and we control the line

89
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 5: of scrimmage and that allowed us to be in the

90
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 5: fourth quarter and win these tight, close games.

91
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 4: And running the ball, you're eating up that clock, yes,

92
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 4: and you know, keeping them off the field and that

93
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 4: type of thing.

94
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,119
Speaker 2: So you know, that's what it's all about.

95
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 4: Anyway, we we had that doomsday defense. Yeah, and they

96
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 4: were giving that ball, you know, on the forty five

97
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,799
Speaker 4: and inn and fifty and then you know, I'm like, okay,

98
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 4: that's at least three, but we're gonna get six out

99
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 4: of that.

100
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 2: But what he Let's talk from the beginning.

101
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 4: Man, you come from Arizona, Maryville, that.

102
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 5: Came in Maryville, the Marybelle area on the west side

103
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 5: of Phoenix, and grew up with a single mom, no

104
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 5: father figure. My father did come back. It was in

105
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 5: our lives. It wasn't in our lives. And we have

106
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 5: a strong relationship today. But back then with your dad

107
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 5: with my father, yes, but then who was a Pierce?

108
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 5: Who was and Drew Pearson fan back? Yes, he hands down,

109
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 5: but he, you know, wasn't in our life. My mom

110
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 5: raised four kids by herself. And I watched my mother

111
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 5: for so many years wake up at early in the morning,

112
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,799
Speaker 5: go to her first job, get done with that about

113
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 5: four thirty five o'clock. She worked at Superior Court americupa

114
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 5: county superior court for thirty eight yeow, and then worked

115
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 5: her second job for twenty six years.

116
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 3: Wow.

117
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 5: And she continued she did that forever. Again, she just

118
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 5: did it for and I saw her do it every

119
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 5: single day. And I had an older sister who was

120
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 5: seven years older than me, and two older brothers, and man,

121
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 5: I just you know, you talk about a sacrifice, she

122
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,919
Speaker 5: just she did all of that. And she was my hero.

123
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 5: She was, you know, everything to all of us and

124
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 5: still is to this day. But that was my background. Man,

125
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 5: that's where I come from. I come from a you know,

126
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 5: a church. I come from the church. Do We stayed

127
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 5: in the church every day, like every said, we were

128
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 5: the church. Like you know in Phoenix, you never you

129
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,559
Speaker 5: don't have yards, you don't have like grass out rocks.

130
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,679
Speaker 5: I'm straightening out rocks in the front of the church

131
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 5: and doing all those things.

132
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 4: So she was she was special, right on, right on.

133
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 4: Well that made you special as well coming through. But

134
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 4: you know, you were a pretty good offensive player coming

135
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 4: through high school.

136
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 5: I know, yeah, running back. What happened?

137
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 4: Man, that damn good one game scored six touchdown Drew.

138
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 5: We were all, yeah, we wouldn't playing, were playing a

139
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 5: little little sisters of the poor, that gay, But look

140
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 5: I figured, look I was. I was a decent running back.

141
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 5: I played running back my entire life. But I was

142
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 5: always on the defensive side of the ball too, And

143
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 5: I always loved playing defense. I like tackling, like, you know,

144
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 5: pursuing and chasing, and like to be the hit her,

145
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 5: not the hit tee. So, uh, playing running back was

146
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 5: you know, it was fun for a long time. I

147
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 5: got into high school and had really, you know, two

148
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 5: really good running back partners with me and Felipe Sparks

149
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 5: another guy named Kevin Goalbroth, and they all went we

150
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 5: all went to college, and Fleepe ended up playing with

151
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 5: the New York Giants for a long time. But we uh,

152
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 5: you know, we had a really good offense in high school.

153
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 5: And you know, I loved the running back position, man,

154
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 5: but my heart was not there. It just wasn't. I

155
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 5: just wanted to.

156
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 2: So you're going both ways.

157
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 5: I played both ways. I played a linebacker safety in

158
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 5: high school and then went to college and I got

159
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 5: recruited across the country to by major colleges to play

160
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 5: running back, some running back, some defense. And then I

161
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 5: went to Arizona State and Lovey Smith put me on the.

162
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 4: Defense coaching you for a while over there, right, that's

163
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 4: pretty cool, But you being from Arizona, was it a

164
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 4: natural to go there or a NOSU.

165
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 5: No, it wasn't, and it wasn't like my first choice.

166
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 5: USC was my first choice, you know, and that's where

167
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 5: I wanted to go, and that's where I was going

168
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 5: to go. And I ended up being what they call

169
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 5: a prop forty eight and my grades weren't good enough

170
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 5: to give me. So I was the same thing, same thing. Yeah, yeah,

171
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 5: I was a prop forty eight man. Didn't like it.

172
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 5: And I learned a lot though, drew a lot from

173
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 5: that process. And I'll get into it here. But I

174
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 5: went to college my first year and I had to

175
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 5: sit out. I couldn't be around the football program. I

176
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 5: had to just go to school.

177
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 2: And this is not a rich shirt.

178
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 5: No, it's not a red shot man. It's worse than that, especially,

179
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 5: you know, playing since I've been playing tackle football since

180
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 5: I was in second grade. It was seven years old

181
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 5: playing tackle football. And now I'm missing the season because

182
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 5: I had a lackluster, lackluster performance in high school and

183
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 5: I just didn't try and I didn't think it would

184
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 5: ever catch up to me, and it finally did. And

185
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 5: then I got into college and I had to sit

186
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 5: out that first year. The embarrassment of that was just

187
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 5: tremendous man. But it shaped me like it shaped me

188
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 5: into the person that I am today, because it was

189
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 5: the first time I ran into any type of hurdles,

190
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 5: any type of obstacles, and that obstacle was I couldn't play.

191
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 5: People looked down on me as far as a man,

192
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 5: he's too stupid, he just a football player, bah blah.

193
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 5: And I had this perception and I knew, I knew

194
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 5: I was way smarter than that. Man. I knew that

195
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 5: academically I could get through it. But it was that

196
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 5: first year sitting out, man, it really formed me into thinking, Okay,

197
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 5: all right, I'm not I'm sitting out, but I'm going

198
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 5: to I'm gonna show everybody one that I can get

199
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 5: through with this. And then secondly, I found other avenues

200
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 5: of life. It wasn't football was like, my whole focus

201
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 5: in life was football, football, football, And sitting out that

202
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 5: first year, I met so many people that had nothing

203
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 5: to do with football, and I'd find out what their

204
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 5: parents did for a living. And there are people that

205
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 5: did real estate. There are people that owned orchard orchards,

206
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 5: and they had all kinds I mean, and I was like, man,

207
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 5: this is different. I grew up in this little bubble

208
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 5: in Maryvale. I didn't know what this though was going on.

209
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 5: Now there's all these professionals, professions that I could get

210
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 5: my you know, getting involved with, and that really opened

211
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 5: my eyes till today to where I am today as

212
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 5: a businessman. It's like I learned a little bit of

213
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 5: what's out there my freshman year in college.

214
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, it must have learned something because you were

215
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 4: a criminal justice Yeah where did you learn to get

216
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 4: into that field?

217
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 5: But you know, I learned to get into that field

218
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 5: because my mom worked for Americapa County Superior Court. I

219
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 5: used to watch her go to work, and a lot

220
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 5: of her friends and her bosses were judges and and

221
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 5: you know, we're with the court system, and I kind

222
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 5: of was very familiar with that. But I had a

223
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 5: business miner as well, and I was going through the

224
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 5: criminal justice and once I committed to doing that my

225
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 5: freshman my freshman year, by my junior year and I

226
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 5: graduated in three and a half years. By my junior year,

227
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 5: I was like, I need to do I want to

228
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 5: learn business as well. So I kept a business miner

229
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:33,240

Speaker 2: What lord you there?

296
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 5: Man by the name of Don Baki. Don Baki was

297
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 5: the recruiting coordinator for Arizona State. And Baki was the

298
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 5: first one to tell me in my junior year in

299
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,079
Speaker 5: high school. He said, hey, man, you're a good athlete

300
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 5: and you test pretty good on your testing, but your

301
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 5: your grades. He told me that like face to fade up.

302
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 5: And he was the first one that was really true

303
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 5: to me. Yeah, and I was you know, look, I

304
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 5: didn't have a father figure in my life, and Coach

305
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,839
Speaker 5: Baki kind of came into that role where he would,

306
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 5: you know, we would have real good conversations, really good conversation.

307
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 5: I was seventeen, sixteen, seventeen years old having these conversations

308
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 5: with him, and he would show up before I'll tell

309
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 5: you what. No, I didn't, man, I'll tell you what. Man,

310
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 5: this is how special and I'm still great. I mean,

311
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 5: he's one of my best best persons that I've ever

312
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 5: been around my life. But Baki used to show up

313
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 5: before class. He just my junior year. He'd say, hey, man,

314
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 5: you need to go to class. And he would show

315
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 5: up before my English class and be sitting in the

316
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 5: hall and say, man, you can't be late, and blah blah,

317
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 5: like he just he just made sure that I was

318
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 5: taken care of. And he had a really good relationship

319
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 5: with my mother at the same time. And he was

320
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 5: the reason. He was absolutely the reason why I went

321
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 5: to Area. You were kind of looking for something like

322
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 5: that that was I didn't have that. I didn't have

323
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 5: a mentorship and it's the reason why I do see

324
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 5: five Texas now like it's a mentorship program. But I

325
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 5: didn't have, you know, that father figure that you know

326
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 5: guided me. Look, yeah, my mom did a great job

327
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 5: of raising four kids, but you know, you always need

328
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 5: a father in your life that can so a male

329
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 5: figure that can pour into you and tell you, hey, man,

330
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 5: you're not doing that right, or yes, you're doing that right,

331
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 5: or encourage you, or show you some vulnerability and whatnot.

332
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 5: And I just didn't have that. Man. So I was

333
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 5: kind of you know, my mom worked two jobs. I

334
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 5: was kind of guiding my own life for the longest time.

335
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 5: And that wasn't as for a sixteen year old kid.

336
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 5: That's not that's just not a good view to just

337
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 5: be guiding your own life.

338
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 2: And your family with your brothers and sister. Where did

339
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 2: you fall in?

340
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 5: I was the youngest you, so my brothers had gone

341
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 5: off to the military, my sister was out of the house,

342
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 5: and it was just me in high school.

343
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, well that was it a natural or a given

344
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 4: that you were going to go to college and play football,

345
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 4: or or just a given the goat that you're going

346
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 4: to go to college. Football just happened to be part

347
00:15:58,640 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 4: of it.

348
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 5: Well, I knew no football was no it was either

349
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 5: I was going to play play football or I was

350
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 5: going it wasn't I wasn't going to get same. Yeah,

351
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 5: So I just knew that. I always knew I was

352
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 5: a good football player. I just knew that from day one.

353
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 5: I kind of was like seventy eighth grade, you just

354
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 5: you know, you just you just domin. You see the

355
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 5: game differently than than most and the game kind of

356
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 5: came easy to me. And then I started to have

357
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 5: to work hard, you know, to get in shape and

358
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 5: all those things. But I loved it, man, like that

359
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 5: was it. That was my passion, Like I didn't. You

360
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 5: didn't have to encourage me to get up and go

361
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 5: work out like that did was that was just naturally

362
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 5: building in to me. Now, get me to go to

363
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 5: the geometry class, You're gonna have to entice me to

364
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 5: get there or something, right, But but football just always

365
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 5: was natural for me. I kind of knew that I

366
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 5: was going to go to college to play, and that

367
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 5: was because of all the recruiting and everybody coming to me.

368
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 5: They knew I was going to play at the next

369
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 5: level and I just I was confident in that. But grades,

370
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 5: like my grades got in the way of playing my

371
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 5: first year in college.

372
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 4: Well, you finally got on the field. Once you got

373
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 4: on the field, things really started happening. But you came

374
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 4: on a linebacker.

375
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, they called it. What were your measurements that I

376
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 5: was like one ninety five. Yeah, I'm serious, two o five.

377
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 5: But it wasn't a linebacker as you know it. It's

378
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 5: like it was a hybrid, like the same thing that

379
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 5: I played with the NFL basically, so I covered the

380
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 5: slot receiver. I did all kinds of other things, but

381
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 5: it was like a we called the devil back position,

382
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 5: and I played closer to the line of scrimmage at time.

383
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 5: Sometimes I play a little you know, further out and

384
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,479
Speaker 5: cover guys. But you know, Lovey Smith forced me to

385
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 5: do things and put me in uncomfortable, uncomfortable positions at

386
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 5: all times and practice and and that's where I kind

387
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 5: of you know, cut my teeth. Yeah to your talent. Yeah,

388
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 5: he took advantage of the work putting it put me

389
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 5: in those those awkward positions. And when I got into

390
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 5: the NFL finally got drafted by the Cowboys, it was

391
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 5: kind of natural for me to just cover guys. Yeah,

392
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 5: It's just it didn't bother me. Yeah.

393
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 4: Well, you know, you were a hard hitter and all

394
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 4: that fierce and all that, but you could run too.

395
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 5: You ran four to three. I saw, and that's the

396
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 5: reason why I came in. And they were like, yeah,

397
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 5: you're gonna cover your first year.

398
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 4: You're gonna that size running that ye kind of you know, way,

399
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 4: definitely going to have to take advantage of your skills

400
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 4: as much as we can on the field.

401
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, And you know I came in and and

402
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 5: you know, when I was playing at Arizona State, it

403
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 5: always felt comfortable playing that position. But then when when

404
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 5: I was gonna get drafted into the NFL, they still

405
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 5: called me a hybrid. They still a lot of teams

406
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 5: thought I could only play the linebacker position, and they

407
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 5: just didn't. You know, we didn't. We didn't know what

408
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,239
Speaker 5: I was like. We called him a tweener. Back then,

409
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 5: I was a tweener, and I didn't I didn't know

410
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,880
Speaker 5: if I wasn't get drafted as a linebacker or as

411
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 5: a safety. So, you know, the Cowboys drafted me, and

412
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 5: then they decided on what they wanted to do.

413
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 4: Well, let's talk about that when we get back with

414

Speaker 5: got to get up, man, every day, and I just

490
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 5: have a routine. My routine has not changed from the

491
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 5: time that I played in the NFL. Get up early

492
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 5: in the morning, even if I'm just walking, but you know,

493
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 5: all doing something, doing something disciplined. It is still there.

494
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 5: It's still there, man, and it's still and it's carried

495
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 5: over to my business world. Man. I think like man,

496
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 5: I think we're cut to be CEOs and executives in

497
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 5: the business world because of all the things were that

498
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 5: we go through in the sports world. Like you know,

499
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 5: think about just think about this, man. I don't know

500
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 5: we're off track here, but just think about us playing

501
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 5: in the NFL and every day you go and you

502
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 5: do certain things, like it's Sunday game, Monday, you get

503
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 5: wake up, you can barely walk, you have to go

504
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 5: get treatment or sit in the eyes, plunge or whatnot.

505
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 5: And then you know, Monday after the game, you get

506
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 5: all this or Sunday after the game, you're getting all

507
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 5: this criticism from everybody, and everyone including your family is

508
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 5: criticizing you on something. Monday morning, you wake up, you

509
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 5: gotta go getting a cold plunge, And then you watch

510
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 5: film and guess who else is criticizing your coach, your

511
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 5: own teammates, and everything is just the film is just

512
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,479
Speaker 5: the film, don't lie. It's just telling this story. And

513
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 5: then the next day it's Tuesday and your day off,

514
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 5: and then Wednesday comes and it starts all over again,

515
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 5: and the criticism is there, the work is there and

516
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 5: all that. Like, we are built to be executives. We're

517
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 5: built for this, We're built for the criticism.

518
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:59,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, when you see getting to the business world, yeah,

519
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 4: you know, you the executives, you say, they're no different

520
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 4: than that, No different, right, And they haven't even they're

521
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 4: not even gone through what I've through my.

522
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 5: Own parts and be intimidated by that. No, no, no,

523
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 5: I mean, And that's exactly the same executives They want

524
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 5: to be around athletes because they know the athletes have

525
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 5: gone to a dark place, whether they be athletes, military guys,

526
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 5: they've had to go to a place to get themselves

527
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 5: out of it being mentally, get themselves out of you know,

528
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 5: some some some some bad situations. So I'm kind of

529
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 5: I'm kind of like that man, Like I just my

530
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 5: feeling is like I've gone through things in my life

531
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 5: and the next day is going to come. And if

532
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 5: the next day is gonna come, I'm gonna get my

533
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 5: ass up and I'll be resilient in gonna fight through it.

534
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 5: So we're built this way.

535
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 2: You're built that way. You're built that way.

536
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 4: On draft day, cowboys gave you a call where you're

537
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 4: happy or sad?

538
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 5: No, so a little bit of both. So my buddy

539
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 5: called me my buddy Floyd who got drafted by the

540
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 5: San Diego Charges the year before. He basically he told

541
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:08,199
Speaker 5: me on draft day, on my draft day that he

542
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 5: was just gonna go get me a tea time at

543
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 5: the golf course and just give me his pager. It

544
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 5: was back on the day. I have a cell phone

545
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,199
Speaker 5: at a pager, right. He gave me his pager and

546
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 5: he said, just go. I'll watch the draft of my family.

547
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 5: He says, I don't want you worried about this because

548
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,719
Speaker 5: I didn't know where I was going to go. I

549
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 5: was predicted to go late first round, on second round,

550
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 5: could have slid the third or fourth round because I

551
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 5: was a tweener. We didn't know. So he gave me

552
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 5: his pager and then I was headed to the golf

553
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 5: course for a couple of friends, and the pager went

554
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,880
Speaker 5: off and I got to the golf club and long

555
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 5: story short, but the guy behind the count didn't want

556
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 5: to give me the phone.

557
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 2: So on the pager, you don't have a phone number, No,

558
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 2: he said, his phone.

559
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 5: Number popped up, and I knew that when he said,

560
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 5: once I paid you, that means you got drafted, right.

561
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 5: So I went inside and I grabbed the from the.

562
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 2: Guy and it was kind of like, I didn't wait

563
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 2: that long.

564
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,679
Speaker 5: No, No, I well, well I did wait long because

565
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 5: I got drafted number thirty seven, seven second round. But

566
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 5: we stopped and got drinks before the tea time. I

567
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 5: was saying, there was on the state.

568
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,120

00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,400
Speaker 5: I can hear my my family in the background. They're

576
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 5: screaming and stuff. And I said, what's the bad news?

577
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 5: And he said them, damn Cowboy drafted, and I was like, god,

578
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 5: I hated the Cowboys. Yeah, like with a passion similar

579
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,639
Speaker 5: to you. We grew up in that Jersey area. I

580
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 5: grew up in Phoenix, and everybody was a Cowboy fan, okay,

581
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 5: and I I was a Steelers fan growing up. Man,

582
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 5: So I was kind of like damn or actually, it

583
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 5: wasn't even so much that I was a Steelers fan.

584
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 5: I was anybody who played the count anybody but the cat, anybody.

585
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,160
Speaker 5: And my buddies used to run around with eighty eight.

586
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 5: They were Drew here. Oh yeah, man, I'm telling you

587
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 5: because and that's why I came in the league. Drew

588
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 5: when I came in the league. And I just got

589
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 5: to tell this story. When I came in the league

590
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 5: my first year, I remember someone I didn't even think

591
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 5: about it my first year or two. And then I

592
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 5: think it was like a few years later I found

593
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 5: out that you weren't in the Hall of Fame. And

594
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 5: this was like in ninety three ninety four, and I

595
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 5: was like, how the hell is Group Pearson not in

596
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 5: the Hall of Fame? Like I could not believe that

597
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,239
Speaker 5: you weren't in. And then I didn't see you up

598
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 5: on the Ring of Honor and I was like, what

599
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 5: in the you know, I ain't gonna get wrecked. But dude,

600
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 5: this was a ninety three ninety four and I said,

601
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 5: we grew up and you couldn't always tell who the

602
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 5: p people are that really changed the game or who

603
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 5: really had an influence on football culture. It's the guys

604
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 5: when you when you're a kid and you're nineteen years

605
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 5: old and you're performing, you're outside and you're like, hey,

606
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,199
Speaker 5: I'm Drew Pearson and I'll be I'll be you know,

607
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 5: Roger Staubach or I'll be so and so and blah

608
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 5: blah blah. Like that's when you know, like there's been

609
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 5: an impact, right, So that's what that's all I knew

610
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 5: as a kid, like.

611
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 2: Because we we did that when we work out Jim

612
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 2: Brown and all that.

613
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I was like, there's no way that he

614
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 5: is not. And then I you know, later on, you know,

615
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 5: found out a lot about Yeah, well it's a process

616
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 5: you're finding that doubt, right, Yeah, but we'll get into that.

617
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 4: But yeah, so, uh, the Cowboys bring you in and

618
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 4: it was that Campbell was the one that really went

619
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 4: to bat for you.

620
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 5: Yes, Campbo went to bat he went to Jimmy Johnson

621
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 5: told when we needed to draft the guy, the kid

622
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,880

628
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 5: he took it. He put his neck on the line

629
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 5: for me to get drafted. And he's like, I came

630

Speaker 4: Better turn out, brother, you better not mess it up.

632

Speaker 2: Well, that little pressure motivated you.

633
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 4: I bet every time you took a lap around the

634
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 4: field to warm up for practice, you thought about Dave

635

Speaker 4: But anyway, now you're at the Cowboys and how how

638
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 4: did that go?

639
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 5: Your rookie year?

640
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 2: You come in and yeah, you know you had to

641
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 2: learn the ropes. Who was ahead of you? Who are

642
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 2: some of the people that when Rock Marion.

643
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, well Rock Marion came in later. He came in

644
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 5: there the year after the guys that were in front

645
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 5: of me were the James Washington's and the Thomas Everetts

646
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 5: and Ray Horton, Robert Williams. There was a number of

647
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 5: guys that that that were in front of me when

648
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 5: I first got here, and you know the draft that

649
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 5: my year. In the draft, Jimmy made a concerted effort

650
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 5: to get better at the position. He wanted to get

651
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 5: more speed in his secondary, so he drafted Kevin Smith

652
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 5: at number seventeen in the first round seventeen. Thick drafted

653
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 5: me in the second round. He ended up drafting a

654
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 5: guy named Clayton Holmes in the third and another guy

655
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 5: named Greg Briggs in the fourth. So he that we

656
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 5: would the organization made a concerted effort to go get

657
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 5: better in their secondary were available. Of course, of the

658
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 5: trade because of the Walkers trail. Yeah, I was one

659
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:46,959
Speaker 5: of those picks in that on that trade. So uh

660
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 5: but he but that's what their their mindset was. So

661
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 5: when I came in, it was the the defensive backs

662
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 5: that were here knew that, you know, the jobs were

663
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 5: on the line, and you know, but I can tell

664
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 5: you this man, I came in and guys like James

665
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 5: Washington Ray Horton and Thomas severtt Man. They just they

666
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 5: didn't even look at it as you know, he's going

667
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 5: to be a threat and he's going to do this.

668
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 5: They taught me the game. I mean they really did.

669
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 5: They saw your talent would be part of this. They

670
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 5: taught me the game. And my first year, I mentally

671
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 5: I was not ready to start. So they put me,

672
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 5: uh at the at the nickel, and I kind of

673
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 5: knew that I was gonna play. I knew I was

674
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 5: going to play a lot. I knew that I knew

675
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 5: my my talent was going to be able to get

676
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 5: on the field and do some things. And I just

677
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 5: didn't know why.

678
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 2: I wanted to start start covering the slot receiver.

679
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, my first year nickel.

680
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 4: Yeah so so you weren't in the nickel playing on

681
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 4: the corner out here.

682
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 2: Cover up and everything. No, you're right there.

683
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 5: I was in it. So we played a lot of

684
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 5: Amanda Man and Kenny Gant would cover the slot, and

685
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 5: you know, every once in a while I would get

686
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 5: the slot or I covered the tight end, the best

687
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 5: tight end on the field, and uh, we would be interchangeable.

688
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 5: And and Kenny Gant was another one. Maan It was

689
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 5: just incredible. My learning curve like just taught me a

690
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 5: lot about the game. Kevin Smith really was impressive and

691
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 5: teaching me stuff. And Larry Brown, but yeah, this this,

692
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 5: I think that first year really showed me a lot.

693
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 5: And then my second year was when night kind of

694
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 5: blossomed and I was more in the starting role.

695
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 4: And who was a coach at that time as Jimmy

696
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 4: Johns Jimmy Johnson.

697
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 5: Jimmy Johnson brought us in. Yeah.

698
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 2: So Jimmy Johnson was pretty cool coach.

699
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 5: Huh.

700
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 4: He seemed to be pretty fire, complete opposite of Tom.

701
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, but we were the same. Yeah, respect fact.

702
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 4: Respect and whatever you had to do to win. They

703
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 4: knew what it took. Yeah, and their approach was might

704
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 4: have been different.

705
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 5: Totally differently, probably a totally different approach. But Jimmy, because

706
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 5: Jimmy just come from college. Yeah, yeah, and he ruled

707
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 5: with fear. He ruled like he had been here. I

708
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 5: think in eighty nine. He came in and took the

709
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 5: took the job, I think it was. And uh, they

710
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 5: had gone one in fifteen. They had gone through a lot,

711
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 5: you know, so Froy and Michael Irvin and partially im

712
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 5: it they'd gone through a lot in those early years.

713
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 5: And when I got here that the year before they

714
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 5: went eleven and five and went into the playoffs and

715
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 5: lost to the Detroit Lions. The year before, I got drafted,

716
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 5: and then I got When I got drafted, they kind

717
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 5: of there was a confidence and a swagger within this

718
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 5: organization that they knew that they were on the verge

719
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 5: of going to the Super Bowl or making a Super

720
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 5: Bowl appearance. And that's when I came in and I

721
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 5: just saw the bravado. I saw the swagger. I saw

722
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 5: the attension of detail that Jimmy had implemented. The accountability. Man,

723
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 5: you were afraid to be man. You couldn't start, oh

724
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 5: man started at eight o'clock. Eating started when Jimmy showed

725
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 5: up at seven fifty, Like you better be in the

726
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 5: building at six point thirty. Little thing. It's the littlest things, man,

727
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,479
Speaker 5: And and that's what made us who we were. Like

728
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 5: a lot of talent, but at the same time, it

729
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 5: was we were very, very disciplined in what we did.

730
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 5: And I got to give that to Jimmy and his staff,

731
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 5: and they did a great job of doing that.

732
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, they certainly did three super Bowls, say were doing

733
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 4: something right.

734
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:08,600

785
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 4: you know that what's separating us as this table. I'm

786
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 4: a little punchy. I ain't hit nobody in a long time.

787
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 4: Ain't caught no passes over the middle or nothing. I know, Mare, Yeah,

788
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,439
Speaker 4: you know, he's a little pressure coming out of the game.

789
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:40,879
Speaker 4: So I know he's a little punchy. And especially after

790
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 4: watching the Super Bowl. Yeah, you know, I mean, I

791
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 4: don't know, did you get into that Super Bowl?

792
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,280
Speaker 5: This? This? Getting this? I did?

793
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 2: I would expected something big.

794
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I just a better game. Yeah, I look,

795
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 5: I like I like. I'm a defensive guy.

796
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 2: I like it.

797
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 5: I like a good defensive game. And you kind of

798
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 5: saw the teams and what they were wanting to do

799
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 5: or get accomplished, you know, early in early in the game,

800
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 5: and both defenses outplayed both offenses. I didn't think Seattle's

801
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 5: offense or Sam Donald played that well against uh the

802
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 5: New England Patriots, but I did see a team in

803
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 5: Seattle that just carried its identity across the board, like

804
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 5: that's who they've been all season long, and that didn't change. Uh.

805
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,320
Speaker 5: In this game. They brought a lot of different pressures.

806
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 5: They confused Drake may uh and and in the in

807
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 5: the end, they got enough stops to get the ball

808
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 5: back to their offense, and their offensive basically was kicking

809
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 5: field goals or most of.

810
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 4: The Yeah, yeah, well you know I was looking for

811
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 4: a little more offense. Yeah, because of course, of course,

812
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 4: of course. Yeah, you have two weeks to prepare for

813
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,879
Speaker 4: this game, all right. I know with coach Landry two

814
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 4: weeks we were putting stuff in that game plan. Y'all

815
00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 4: I ain't seen right, all right, movement motion, every thing,

816
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 4: y'all ain't seen yet, and just trying to deceive the

817
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 4: defense a little bit and try to move the football.

818
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 2: You talk about you a Steeler fan. I was going.

819
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 4: Against the steel defenses, you know, the best defense I

820
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 4: ever know.

821
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 5: I got a question, how were those defense? Oh man tough? Yeah.

Speaker 2: You had to button that chinch strap twice.

823
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 4: You had to make sure it was Buck the best

824
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 4: defensive back I had played against, by far, the great.

825
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,279

Speaker 4: steel curtain. Defense and then he's playing at what we

829
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 4: call the forty one forty six defense where the cornerback

830
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,200

899
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,160

901
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,520

902
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,279
Speaker 5: that we didn't go up there because we Owned San

903
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:16,279

905
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,359
Speaker 5: job done on that, one and that set us back

906
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 5: and up we're going back the next. Year but you,

907
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 5: KNOW i think this team With Jimmy johnson could at

908
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,440
Speaker 5: least run four or five Straight Super. Bowls.

909
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:33,440

Speaker 4: the coaching.

911
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 5: Styles, Absolutely but, again like you, KNOW i tell you,

912
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,840
Speaker 5: that you, know there was a goal that was set early,

913
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 5: on And jimmy set that. Goal and the, attention LIKE i,

914
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 5: said the attention to. Detail there was no you missing missing,

915
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 5: meetings there were no you, know times where you just

916
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 5: made mental. Mistakes you, Know jimmy used to have this saying,

917
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 5: like look give, sometimes you, know the guy crossed from

918
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:54,280
Speaker 5: you was gonna kick your, ass he's gonna be physically

919
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 5: better than. You BUT i, DO i will not accept mental.

920
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 5: Mistakes And i'm telling we were the most disciplined. Team

921
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 5: we didn't, mate we didn't hurt ourselves Under, Jimmy, jimmy

922
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,399
Speaker 5: we did not make mental. Mistakes and that's what really

923
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 5: helped us because because everybody, is you, know talent, wise you,

924
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 5: know in THE. Nfl in THE, nfl talent is extremely.

925
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 5: Close it's not like you, know every team is you,

926
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 5: know there's a huge gap in. Talent so this is

927
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 5: a team that makes the least mental, mistakes the team

928
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 5: that is the most, disciplined team that figures out a

929
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 5: way to turn the ball over or keep the ball in.

930
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,280
Speaker 5: Hand that's that's a team who normally.

931
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 4: Wins any of the three stand out more special than the.

932
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,040
