Speaker 1: Quarterback.
Speaker 2: You're dead nights at quarterback. They recruiter as a quarterback
Speaker 2: and you just decided no one of your players.
Speaker 3: Well, I got recruited as a quarterback, and when I went,
Speaker 3: Chris Winki was actually started.
Speaker 1: But Chris wink was one hundred and seventeen, so we.
Speaker 3: Got He got drafted baseball, played baseball for some years,
Speaker 3: came back, and when he came back, he was like
Speaker 3: twenty five something.
Speaker 1: Remember that he's like these football players. Now, was that
Speaker 1: I l.
Speaker 3: When I got recruited, he actually had he had got hurt.
Speaker 3: So he didn't play in the National championship that year
Speaker 3: against Tennessee because he had like a neck and when
Speaker 3: I when I saw him, he couldn't throw a tennis ball,
Speaker 3: damn five yards. So I'm like, okay, I can go
Speaker 3: compete and win the spot. But when I ended up signing,
Speaker 3: were going to training camp and he one hundred percent.
Speaker 3: So now he's a junior and I think he's about
Speaker 3: twenty five, so obviously you know, he led the team
Speaker 3: to a national championship, so he got the starting job.
Speaker 1: Coming in.
Speaker 3: They had Marcus Olson who was back up, and then
Speaker 3: they had like JJ. But I found myself watching practice,
Speaker 3: like it was probably about probably about three days four
Speaker 3: days in the training camp. I'm watching practice. I'm not
Speaker 3: taking reps, and I'm not used to watching practice because
Speaker 3: I mean, I started, I started at varsity, you know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, as a freshman. So I'm here, I'm
Speaker 3: watching practice. I'm like, man, this ain't cool. Like I
Speaker 3: was like, I'm about to go highlight coach. Right after practice,
Speaker 3: I go up and talk to coach Abowten. I'm like, coach, man, like,
Speaker 3: I'm not cool with just watching practice, like I want
Speaker 3: to play. He was like, well, we recruited you to
Speaker 3: be a quarterback and you're trying to switch already. I'm
Speaker 3: like yeah. I was like, man, I don't care about that.
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm just trying to get on the field.
Speaker 3: I'm not used to this. He was like, have you
Speaker 3: talked to your parents about it? Because I know, you
Speaker 3: know they were they really wanted you to play quarterback too.
Speaker 3: I was like, I mean I talked to my dad.
Speaker 3: He was like, whatever I want to do, it's cool.
Speaker 3: So he was like, all right, well we'll allow you
Speaker 3: to switch. He said, what position you're thinking about? So
Speaker 3: I was like, man, I played safety in high school,
Speaker 3: so I go to safety. He was like, nah, He's like,
Speaker 3: we can't let you go to safety. You're too good
Speaker 3: with the ball in game. He was like, if you're
Speaker 3: gonna switch, it has to be on offense. You can
Speaker 3: go to receiver or running back. I'm like running back,
Speaker 3: I'll go to receiver. I had never played receiver before.
Speaker 3: In the room that I went into the receiver room,
Speaker 3: it was like Peter Ward run, Dugan's labernie is cold
Speaker 3: snoop minutes. All these dudes got and I'm walking in
Speaker 3: there as a a quarterback.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: But two weeks later we played Louisiana Tech, I get
Speaker 3: too touchdown first game.
Speaker 4: Hey man, that's crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy.
Speaker 2: The funny thing is is you did. Can kind of
Speaker 2: take some credit for you being the Hall of Fame
Speaker 2: and wide receiver then, because you know to Florida, which
Speaker 2: is where you should have went, you might have been
Speaker 2: starting quarterback. We never saw you as a wide receiver.
Speaker 1: We can tell people, we're gonna get into that.
Speaker 4: But the crazy thing is, and the kids at home,
Speaker 4: she can take a page out your book, bro, because
Speaker 4: you started your freshman years as a freshman in varsity,
Speaker 4: get to college and hit with some adversity. I ain't quit,
Speaker 4: I ain't jumping the portal. I ain't doing none of that.
Speaker 4: And Coach, this ain't what I want to be on
Speaker 4: the field. What I gotta do, what I gotta do.
Speaker 4: And this is the great Bobby Bollen, by the way,
Speaker 4: this ain't no, this ain't no duck. He going to
Speaker 4: talk to Bobby Bouen. And I tell you, it took
Speaker 4: me two years to speak to rounds dog. I ain't
Speaker 4: saying Rody for two years. It's a great pat riley.
Speaker 4: What I'm gonna say them. He went to hollered that
Speaker 4: Bobby Boule and his future was on the line. So
Speaker 4: all your kids at home, man, get a little tough man. Hey,
Speaker 4: getting there, man and go. And then at the same
Speaker 4: time he was scared to bet on himself. I changed
Speaker 4: positions because I know I could do it.
Speaker 2: Coach just went there as a quarterback and got two
Speaker 2: tugboats up front.
Speaker 1: That's crazy.
Speaker 4: I got a question about Bobby Ballen because my homeboy
Speaker 4: used to play for Florida State Cook Cleveland Thomas.
Speaker 1: He played you know Cook.
Speaker 4: Cook told me Bobby Bell used to say six words
Speaker 4: a day, come down there and say let's work hard.
Speaker 1: Get up there and go sit up in that thing.
Speaker 1: The practice. He come down there and say way to work.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 3: He stayed in the tower, so we come out. But
Speaker 3: he actually he took a lot of notes. So we
Speaker 3: had we had the two practice fields, and his tower
Speaker 3: was like in between the two practice fields.
Speaker 1: So he had to feel over here, to feel over here.
Speaker 3: His tower, and he turned from one field to the next,
Speaker 3: and he everything that went on.
Speaker 1: He knew.
Speaker 3: He had his notepad, he had his pen, and he's
Speaker 3: taking notes the whole time. So like he was the
Speaker 3: eye in the sky, like great and he was a
Speaker 3: lot of people don't know. When I was at Florida State,
Speaker 3: especially my freshman year, like offense and defense didn't get
Speaker 3: along like Monday through Friday. It was it was all
Speaker 3: out war. Only time we got along was on Saturdays.
Speaker 3: So we we actually made each other better. And we
Speaker 3: had it was Mickey Andrews and Chuck a model.
Speaker 4: And then we had Mark Rick who was the offensive coordinator.
Speaker 1: Man Georgia.
Speaker 3: I remember we was in We used to be in
Speaker 3: practice and a lot of the times like in football,
Speaker 3: you the offense will get a defense the script so
Speaker 3: you will know like what what formations we in, what
Speaker 3: personnel we in, so they can get it set. And
Speaker 3: I remember in practice one day defense yailed across. They
Speaker 3: were like, what's the personnel and Mark Rick was like
Speaker 3: figure it out. So like if if any day in practice,
Speaker 3: if offense had a great day, defense had to run.
Speaker 1: And I ain't talking about just like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they had to get it likes died there and
Speaker 3: if defense won, offense already knew what was coming. So
Speaker 3: like every day you can't go to practice and like
Speaker 3: I'm gonna feel it out or I'm gonna be cool
Speaker 3: with you know what I'm saying. Whoever, Nah, Like it's
Speaker 3: complete war and you're trying to win it. And that's
Speaker 3: why that especially my freshman year, we ended up going undefeated.
Speaker 3: We the first team go wide to wire number one
Speaker 3: the whole year. But because of the way that guys worked.
Speaker 3: Man training camp is a fight every day offense versus defense.
Speaker 3: Like you fight, and if if ever there was a
Speaker 3: time on field, so say one receiver gets in a
Speaker 3: fight and you can't see every receiver on their fight,
Speaker 3: you gotta run.
Speaker 4: You gotta be a That's what we grew up in
Speaker 4: k Killer. Did you hear the receiver room that he
Speaker 4: walked into? Lavernius Cole, supn Ron Ron? Can we get
Speaker 4: Peter Ward? Pete doug Old School, stop the down bus,
Speaker 4: stop your gass and you keep flying.
Speaker 1: Loaded Bradington y'all was loaded.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had a we had a we had a man,
Speaker 3: We had a receiver, a receiver group. Just the guys
Speaker 3: I played with, Like I said, Peter Ward, Lavernius Coles,
Speaker 3: run dug and Snoop Minace, Javon Walker.
Speaker 1: Who Javon damn Greg Moore, Jermaine Streamer, damn man. It was.
Speaker 1: It was loaded. Who was the running backs? Travis Miner,
Speaker 1: Jeff Cheney, Jeff Cheney, Davy Ford.
Speaker 3: Then we ended up recruiting. We got Nick Maddocks, who
Speaker 3: was the number one running back in the country, and
Speaker 3: then we had Greg Jonesmies.
Speaker 4: Big boy for the Jaguars. Run your ass, so take
Speaker 4: your glass with him to.
Speaker 2: The Bobby Bottle was a real o g and huh
Speaker 2: yeah yeah. So he loved that defensive offense.
Speaker 4: That's type to do you think like and as you know,
Speaker 4: as Bobby Bowden got a little older, because you look
Speaker 4: at the coaches that have been like so so so
Speaker 4: instrumental in college football and winning and setting the tone.
Speaker 4: Did you feel like as they got a little bit older,
Speaker 4: it was just a different generation that just didn't know
Speaker 4: who Bobby Baden was and you just didn't have the
Speaker 4: same admiration and respect that you did because Listen, pat
Speaker 4: Riley didn't have to earn my respect, Bobby Biden didn't
Speaker 4: have to earn your respect. But now when you two
Speaker 4: three generations remove and they don't know no better exactly,
Speaker 4: you think that impacts it a little bit because I
Speaker 4: see it all the time.
Speaker 3: And then if I think sometimes you have like when
Speaker 3: you have organizations that are established and like just say
Speaker 3: like the Heat or like us at that time Florida State,
Speaker 3: who I mean, I think at the time we had
Speaker 3: like fifteen top five finishes like in a row.
Speaker 1: That's crazy.
Speaker 3: But when you when you think about it and you
Speaker 3: have kids who didn't help establish that culture, Yes, they
Speaker 3: just come in on the back end of it and
Speaker 3: they think that everything is you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: You think about like the facilities and stuff like that,
Speaker 3: like the people that came before you, you know, what
Speaker 3: I'm saying, actually put into work to make sure that
Speaker 3: you can have the stuff that you have. So these
Speaker 3: younger guys they walk in and they see this stuff,
Speaker 3: they think it's just it's They don't they don't see
Speaker 3: it as being earned, you know what I'm saying. They
Speaker 3: don't see it as a privilege. They think it's supposed
Speaker 3: to be. They don't know the work that was put
Speaker 3: in to earn that. Like when we when we were there,
Speaker 3: we had Matt drills, and like we used to actually
Speaker 3: have coaches come in from other D one schools and
Speaker 3: watch us do Matt drills because they wanted to see
Speaker 3: why was Florida State so good? Why were they top
Speaker 3: five finishers in fifteen years in a row. And like
Speaker 3: at one point we were the only team doing Matt drills.
Speaker 3: So Matt drills is our winter conditioning. So just think
Speaker 3: for an hour plus straight conditioning. And what they used
Speaker 3: to do, like this is old school. They used to
Speaker 3: turn turn up the heat and turn off the water.
Speaker 3: So it wasn't no, it wasn't no breaks. It wasn't
Speaker 3: Your only break was going from one drill to the next.
Speaker 3: But going from one drill to the next, you gotta run,
Speaker 3: So it was no like take your time get there.
Speaker 4: So it's like stations and you just stations and you
Speaker 4: just running through the oh man, and it was it
Speaker 4: and breaking is frowned upon.
Speaker 3: If you quit, that's from you ain't quitting. You can't listen.
Speaker 3: So say were in a group and and you may
Speaker 3: have been missing class all all fall and thinking.
Speaker 2: He was he was, he was missing class off all.
Speaker 3: When you get the MAT drills, they got all your
Speaker 3: all your absences. So before we even start, you may
Speaker 3: have five hundred up down so you're doing up downs,
Speaker 3: were watching whoever miss class, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: doing their up downs whatever. And now we start MATT drills.
Speaker 3: So now you and I group, you already done the
Speaker 3: fact that you're missing class. The coach is already mad
Speaker 3: at you. So they got it out for you. But
Speaker 3: because we in your group, we got it got it.
Speaker 3: So every time we go, as soon as we finish,
Speaker 3: bring that group back. So that's and you've got a list.
Speaker 3: So every morning you're going to gym, you're looking at
Speaker 3: that list, who's in my group? And if you look
Speaker 3: in that group and you see like one of them knuckleheads,
Speaker 3: you kill.
Speaker 4: But that's you know, that make you accountable. Yeah, and
Speaker 4: that's that most think about the team instead of just themselves.
Speaker 4: And that's the habits that we have bro because at
Speaker 4: my age, when I got in the league dog, it
Speaker 4: was so hard for me to be selfish because of
Speaker 4: the habits that I have built. You know what I'm
Speaker 4: saying the same kind of if we lose, if I lose,
Speaker 4: if I do something wrong, all us lose. If I
Speaker 4: mess up, we all gotta suffer.
Speaker 2: Here is a dirty little secret that insurance industry may
Speaker 2: want to keep under wraps. Insurance companies profit by holding
Speaker 2: onto your money for as long as possible, so after
Speaker 2: an accident they might do whatever they can to delay
Speaker 2: or deny your claim. This way they can keep those
Speaker 2: profits growing. Morgan and Morgan fights hard against these corporations,
Speaker 2: a fight to make sure you get every dollar you
Speaker 2: deserve winning court. The insurance companies want juries to think
Speaker 2: that at fault driver is the one paying the verdict amount. Meanwhile,
Speaker 2: it's really the insurance companies who are covering the cost.
Speaker 2: When Morgan and Morgan takes on a case, there are
Speaker 2: almost always going after the big insurance companies and not
Speaker 2: the individuals are at fault. Morgan and Morgan fights hard
Speaker 2: for their clients, and these corporations know that a recent
Speaker 2: client in Pennsylvania just received twenty nine million. That's twenty
Speaker 2: nine million dollars. Ensures best offer was five hundred thousand.
Speaker 2: Another recent client in Florida received twenty million dollars last
Speaker 2: offer zero. There's a reason why Morgan and Morgan is
Speaker 2: America's largest injury firm. Hiring the wrong firm can be disastrous.
Speaker 2: Hiring the right firm could substantially increase your settlement. With
