1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Thank you for you coming back. Part two is underway.

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 2: Let's talk about that Super Bowl run, that magical season.

3
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 2: You're fifteen and one, you win the MVP outright. Steve

4
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,079
Speaker 2: McNair shared the MVP of Ward with Peyton Manning in

5
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 2: two thousand and three. What changed for you? What clicked

6
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:22,240
Speaker 2: that year that everything fell into place? Thirty five passes, touchdowns,

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,079
Speaker 2: ten receptions, you had another I think ten Russing touchdowns,

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: come from behind victory.

9
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: You guys did it all.

10
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:34,959
Speaker 2: What transpired that year that you was like, I got it.

11
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 3: It was definitely harmony, but also a trust in coaching,

12
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 3: knowing that that's really when Riverboat Run was giving me

13
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 3: an opportunity, Like I feel comfortable with the ball in

14
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 3: my hands. Let me run. I know how to protect myself.

15
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 3: I know how the chest of the philosophy of the game.

16
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 3: If we're in any short yardag shit situations, let's make

17
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 3: the defense play eleven on eleven. Just leave me with

18
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 3: one guy.

19
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 1: I can run through, run, pass, go around.

20
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,119
Speaker 3: I can find a way to get a yard, put

21
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 3: the ball in my hands and have I think they

22
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 3: that was the year they had more design runs and

23
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 3: that's why I felt comfortable, like when you look at

24
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 3: all the success that I had in my career high school,

25
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 3: even in college, I was able to protect myself by

26
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 3: running the football, even though that the game at that

27
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 3: point in time didn't see nothing like that. I don't

28
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 3: know what they're gonna do with, you know, taking the

29
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,639
Speaker 3: hit socket I could protect myself outside the pocket.

30
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: Now we see.

31
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 3: Richardson and the Colts, we see Lamar, we see you

32
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 3: know all these run first quarterbacks that they.

33
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 2: Was designed the run. You guys had power. You pull

34
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 2: the guard to tackle and the fullback and we're.

35
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: Gonna figure it out. Let's get the butter.

36
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,040
Speaker 3: Front the duck. You know what I'm saying That that

37
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 3: was the time where things started coming into play. Then

38
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 3: you started saying, let's design passes off of this, pull

39
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 3: the same guard, the same full back ride, and then

40
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 3: boom the RPOs. So when people talking about the RPO like,

41
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 3: these are the things that derived from something we was

42
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 3: doing that with a quarterback as the runner.

43
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, the major primary ball caids. You know what I'm saying.

44
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 3: Yea. So my relationship with Mike Schuler Ken Dorsey was

45
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 3: my quarterback coach and even coach Rivera like it was

46
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 3: messioned that year, and that's where it pretty much came

47
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 3: down to.

48
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 2: You beat the Cardinals in the NBC Championship Game. You

49
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 2: destroyed them, and you get to the super Bowl. So

50
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 2: what's your thought process? You're like, Man, I'm the MVP,

51
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 2: I'm in the super Bowl. It was a glory. It

52
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: was a beautiful day and Levi Stadium, Remember super Bowl fifty.

53
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: Bremer liked yesterday my Broncos taking on the Carolina Panthers.

54
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: What do you remember? Go back?

55
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: What do you remember about We woke up that morning,

56
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 2: probably had the same program.

57
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: What were your pregame meal?

58
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 3: Shit, I don't know, I know the night before the game?

59
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: What that was? Would you have the night before the game?

60
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 3: Vanilla bean ice cream, marshmallow's caramel?

61
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: That was mine?

62
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: You, I mean, you ain't have no possible forgett it,

63
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 2: no meatball, none of that. I did, But that's just

64
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: whatever they had.

65
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: So you wake up that morning, you have your pregame meal.

66
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 3: Only thing I remember from that Super Bowl was I

67
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 3: was mentally drained.

68
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: It was a lie, and.

69
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 3: Still to this I ain't never really watched the game,

70
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 3: no film, no coaches view, and none of that. Ship

71
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 3: I was I remember that feeling during the game, I'm tired,

72
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 3: like tired.

73
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: I remember running around. I was like, yo, it's.

74
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 3: Real hours on the sideline, you know what I'm saying,

75
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 3: but still trying to stay focos. The halftime wasn't fifteen minutes.

76
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 3: It was damn near forty five minutes or hour. Motherfuckers

77
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 3: was changing their whole uniform, having to restretch, retape all that.

78
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, damn, like, this shit is a event.

79
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 3: And during the game, certain scrambles or certain runs, I

80
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 3: was tired, and knowing the measure of what was the

81
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 3: mental task, I just thought I was like, damn, I'm

82
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 3: ready for this shit to be over with, you know

83
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,119
Speaker 3: what I'm saying.

84
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: And that didn't impact the game.

85
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 3: I just remember like I had just had my first

86
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 3: biological son that year, and I was just I don't know,

87
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 3: it was like I could It was two times in

88
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 3: my life that I couldn't lose, right. It was twenty

89
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 3: fifteen in Carolina and Dan in twenty ten at Offer

90
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 3: that was just you know what Drake say, or the future?

91
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 1: What a time to be alive?

92
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 2: Like whether it were you tied mentally, were you tied emotionally,

93
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 2: were you tied physically. What was it about that day?

94
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 2: Was it the magnitude of the moment? Was it you

95
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 2: knew what you were about to embark upon and how

96
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 2: different your life would have been had you won that game?

97
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: What? What?

98
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 2: What felt different about that day that you all of

99
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: a sudden you felt like you didn't normally do normally.

100
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 1: I tried to treat it like a regular game, but

101
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: it wasn't a regular game. You know what I'm saying.

102
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 3: You played in the school, like you know, like it's

103
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 3: you can explain it, but to be in it.

104
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: Them lights is bright, the crowd.

105
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 2: Is already buzzing because normally you want out do you

106
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 2: go out there for pregame? This is stadium half full,

107
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: that's the stadium is three quarter full.

108
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: And it's buzzing. The sideline is jam packed.

109
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: You got to excuse me, excuse me, camera people, And

110
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 2: like you said, the celebs normally have one or two celebs,

111
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 2: but you got the start the stars that's out on

112
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 2: the sideline then and you see it. But you know,

113
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 2: like you said, you try to prepare like that it's

114
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 2: a regular game. You know, a three points for a

115
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 2: field goal touchdown to six intercessory.

116
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 3: But the thing leading up at the game. You couldn't

117
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 3: do your regular routine. It was like a virtual kind

118
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 3: of preparation. You couldn't have the confines of your house

119
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 3: to get treatment, you know, massage, stretching, and that process

120
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 3: was on the road on the goal. And I don't

121
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 3: remember the crowd being loud, you know what I'm saying, Like.

122
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 2: No, because you got half the stadium was for the Broncos.

123
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 2: Half the stadium was for the Carolina Panthers. The other

124
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 2: half was drunk and they ain't give a damn who.

125
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 3: It was an event that, you know, when I think

126
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 3: about it, it didn't like none of this has anything.

127
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: To do with the actual game.

128
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 3: Right, But certain players that played back in my mind

129
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: constantly still to this day. It's like, Yo, what if

130
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 3: he would have caught that, or what if I would

131
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 3: have dole on the fumble? What if you know, the

132
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 3: defense would have got to stop right here? Or what

133
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 3: if you know we didn't have a three or out

134
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 3: right there? You know what I'm saying, what if we

135
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 3: would have went for? Like these things played back constantly

136
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 3: that preparing for a game of that magnitude.

137
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: I did not.

138
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 3: Give the respect to it, like I should because there's

139
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 3: nothing bigger than the Super Bowl, no sporting event, and that's.

140
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 2: What I just you know, you know they're gonna pick

141
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 2: a part about what you said about you being tired,

142
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 2: you being this game you felt different.

143
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 3: Than Yeah, but it's the truth. I mean, look, did

144
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 3: I play my best game?

145
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:51,679
Speaker 1: No? No, didn't. But the truth is did Peyton Many

146
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: play his best game? No?

147
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 2: No, both of you guys, I think will sack like

148
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 2: four or five times through a pig fumble.

149
00:07:58,240 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, like those things are.

150
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 3: It's just that wasn't the best version of myself that day,

151
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 3: and I'm fine with that, and I found peace in

152
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 3: it now. I wouldn't even say it wasn't meant to be.

153
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 3: It was just like I just didn't put my best

154
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 3: foot forward.

155
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 2: That funer you mentioned, you got stripped of the ball

156
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 2: and the balls on the ground bouncing around, and everybody

157
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 2: thought you were going to jump dive on the ball

158
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 2: at least give yourself another possession and another opportunity. That

159
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 2: didn't happen. How long has it taken? How long or

160
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 2: have you gotten over that play? And how long did

161
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 2: it take you to get over the Super Bowl losses?

162
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: I mean I took it personal pretty much like a

163
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 1: whole year.

164
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 3: And then when I felt like we could get vindicated

165
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 3: or have vengeance or revenge from that, we lost because

166
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 3: of miss field goal and the.

167
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: Rematch to start the season kick off. But yeah, that's

168
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: what I take.

169
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll say that we didn't lose the game

170
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 3: because I didn't jump on the phone. It was a

171
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 3: combination of a lot of a lot of different things.

172
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 3: But we lost, And I take full accountability on my

173
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 3: you know, performance, and I could have been better.

174
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: I should have been better.

175
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 2: Right, So the part of your we've touched on a

176
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 2: lot of things, and you touched on a lot of things.

177
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 2: The one thing that you didn't haven't touched a lot

178
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 2: on that I can't recall is your brief stint at

179
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 2: the University of Florida. They win the national championship the

180
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 2: year before you got there.

181
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 3: Correct, Yes, as I was enrolling, they were winning Richard Championship. Sir,

182
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 3: Tim Tebow is already there, you know, because Chris Leak

183
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 3: is the starter of Tim Tebow comes in.

184
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: They got packaged for him.

185
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's probably going to be the start of next

186
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 2: year unless you being camp and I know you, I

187
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 2: know how you think I'm gonna beat I'm gonna go

188
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 2: get this job.

189
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 3: But that's what That's not how I was recruited, though

190
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 3: I was recruited at the minimum.

191
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: With your skill set, you will have a pack. You

192
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: have a package.

193
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 3: Also, it's like t bo okay, and that's what okay, okay,

194
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 3: y'all won the national championship.

195
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: A lot of these guys coming back. I could do that.

196
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, Like I'm looking at the stuff.

197
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying myself, like, that's me. I

198
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: could do that. This is me at the to get

199
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: my feet.

200
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 3: Wet in the SEC as a freshman.

201
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: Folk plays a game just to run.

202
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 3: Then I could do that the fun Let's play linebacker

203
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 3: early on in my wreck ball and then I transitioned

204
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 3: into running back. Then that transition into I could throw

205
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 3: the furthest so now you can play quarterbacks. So these

206
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 3: things is a part of my whole thing that embodied

207
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: who I was.

208
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 1: That's a player.

209
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 2: So you get there and it's not shaping up kind

210
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 2: of how they what they had told you or the

211
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 2: way you envision it, because all of a sudden you're

212
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 2: not getting these four to five plays a game, and

213
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 2: so did you have a conversation with Urban.

214
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 3: Urban was he didn't want to talk to me. I

215
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 3: wasn't important enough for Urban to talk to me. And granted,

216
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 3: you gotta think about it like this, do you even

217
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 3: have a voice to talk when the person you're trying

218
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 3: to talk about is the Heisman front runner? Yeah, So

219
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 3: I had a conversation with my father to say, like, Pop,

220
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 3: it's time to kind of rethink this thing, because I

221
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 3: would not have worn it a backup to me to

222
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 3: have the energy to say I only can play if

223
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,439
Speaker 3: he get hurt. I'm not that type of person, right right.

224
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 3: You don't want to put that negative in there yet

225
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 3: I was. I'm an ultimate pro. I'm an ultimate teammate.

226
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 3: Like I wanted people to succeed. You see what I'm saying,

227
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 3: Like I didn't want t Bo to get hurt. He's

228
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 3: the greatest college football player to some people. You know

229
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, And it's subjective. If not number one,

230
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 3: he top five and Tim Tebow is old a large

231
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 3: portion of who Cam Newton really is because just like

232
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 3: just the same way I gave you, what sparked my

233
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 3: aggression or my competitive nature with Jimmy Causon It sparked

234
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 3: the same thing with Tim Tebow being around Aaron Hernandez,

235
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 3: the Pouncy Twins, Chris Rainey, Joe Hayden, Carlos Dunlap, Major Right,

236
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 3: Percy Harvin, like Brandon James, Brandon Spikes, these Louis Murphy,

237
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 3: all these.

238
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: Great players that I was around.

239
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 3: I would have been a fool not to take what

240
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 3: they were doing and what made them great and applied.

241
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: To my journey in Juco as well as over.

242
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 2: Right, So some things transpired. You ge get into a

243
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 2: little trouble with a computer and you end up But.

244
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,079
Speaker 3: That wasn't the reason why I left, the reason why

245
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 3: I left, Like, did I get in trouble, Yes, that

246
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 3: was already tooken care of prior to me leaving.

247
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, yeah I didn't get kicked out of them.

248
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 2: But see that's but see that's how they framed the story.

249
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't get kicked out of Florida. I left Florida.

250
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 3: And when Tebow announced that, oh and by the way,

251
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 3: I'm coming back, I gotta leave now. I wasn't playing

252
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 3: when you was here. So and and then, for urban's sake,

253
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 3: you couldn't even identify who the backup was between me

254
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 3: and John Bradley.

255
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, bro, what the what are we going up?

256
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: We're fighting for scraps.

257
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 3: Y'all can have this cool if it was up to me,

258
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 3: what did I want to leave Hell now?

259
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: Because there was my my brothers.

260
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 3: Like, we build real relationships over that two year span

261
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 3: that I was there. We worked out together, we trained together,

262
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,679
Speaker 3: we bled together, we cried together, we sweated together, we

263
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 3: we prepared together. And I'm seeing guys like Joe Hayden

264
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,719
Speaker 3: play early as a freshman. I said, Damn, Bro, I

265
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 3: would love to have an opportunity to play Marquise Pouncy

266
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 3: playing early man. I would have loved to air her

267
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 3: Nande's playing Earth. I would have loved to be out

268
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 3: there and those things when they're like Bro, like we'll

269
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 3: go back to the dorms and have these conversations, like bro,

270
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 3: that ship was lit, like bro, like you said, all

271
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 3: those people in there said the damn I wish I

272
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 3: saw him, But that wasn't.

273
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: It wasn't. It wasn't for me. You know.

274
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 3: The main everything, all the reasons why I went to

275
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 3: Florida was accomplished other than me playing, And that's why

276
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 3: I had to leave, and at that time they'd had

277
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 3: to transfer Portal, so I had to get it out

278
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 3: the mud. You. Irvin Mayer had to sign off to

279
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 3: where I transferred to.

280
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: He gave certain restrictions. You cannot transfer to uh in state,

281
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: in state school, so f.

282
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 3: A, U f I U, Florida State. I couldn't go

283
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 3: to none of them. And I couldn't go anywhere CEC.

284
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: So I said, how do I clear all that so

285
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 3: I can go anywhere? I gotta go Juco? I said, shit,

286
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 3: I'm going Juco. And on top of that, what really

287
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 3: ticked me the fuck off was when my father had

288
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 3: called Urban to ask for a championship ring. He didn't

289
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 3: give me a championship ring. So that really was my

290
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 3: driving force to becoming the player.

291
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: Who I was.

292
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 3: I said, don't worry about it. I'm gonna go get

293
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 3: my own. Got one at Juco, got one at Auburn.

294
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 2: You could make the case given the talent that you

295
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 2: had at Auburn on the offensive side, cam you had

296
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 2: the greatest offensive season for a quarterback, and then in

297
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 2: NCAA history. Now, I know Joe Burrow threw for sixty

298
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 2: touchdowns and five thousand yards, but he had Justin Jefferson,

299
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 2: he had Jamar Chase, he had Clyde Edwards, a layer

300
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 2: he had I forget the guy's name. Hes tight end

301
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 2: lost it. Tight end Andy had to. If I'm not

302
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 2: miss thinking of other wide receiver. The third wide receiver

303
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 2: is in Carolina now, So what you had, look at

304
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 2: the look at what you didn't have, and what you

305
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 2: were able to accomplish. So basically, Jimmy close, a little

306
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 2: fire up under you, Tim Tebow, little fire up under

307
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 2: you in urban, little fire up under you, not only

308
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: by not playing you the four or five snap that

309
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 2: he said he would give you, but also when you

310
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 2: asked for a championship ring for being on the team

311
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 2: that you felt you were entitled to like, nah, were good.

312
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's what made that what they call it,

313
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 3: that's what created the monster, right.

314
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: And if I could paint it the way I wanted

315
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: to paint it.

316
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 3: While I was at Auburn, there was an opportunity for

317
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 3: Auburn to play Florida in the SEC channel.

318
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: That's what you.

319
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 3: Wanted, now, what you want to cam, no racial slur,

320
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 3: but boy, they would have seen a bat boon out

321
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 3: that motherfucker. I would have showed my whole boy, That's

322
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 3: what I wanted. I wanted to prove to them that

323
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 3: they fucked that they made a mistake. I knew that

324
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 3: was my point to prove I was better than Tibo.

325
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 3: That was my opportunity to prove that y'all fucked up.

326
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 3: That was my opportunity to prove that this could have

327
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 3: been y'all.

328
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: But you played me.

329
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 3: And there was times where I would be the first

330
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 3: person to tell you while I was at the University

331
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 3: of Florida, I was not the maturest person that I

332
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 3: needed to be to lead that team, and I would

333
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 3: take responsibility for that.

334
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: But who I grew to be. Nobody was fucking with me.

335
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 1: But by the time you came back, that was the

336
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: mature Cam Newton.

337
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 3: I needed to I needed alienation in Juco. I was

338
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 3: in Brenham, Texas, and if I were to give you

339
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 3: the amount of money that you got from Cat Williams

340
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 3: to put up on the line to say where's Brenham, Texas,

341
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 3: you couldn't coin it out. And everybody who was in

342
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 3: Renom on that team, they had some roots or ties

343
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 3: to Texas.

344
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 1: So there was many weekends.

345
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,919
Speaker 3: There was many times where the closest family member was

346
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 3: thousands of miles away.

347
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: Only thing I could do was workout. I cried.

348
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 3: I mean, I was vulnerable. I was embarrassed. But that

349
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 3: shaped the creation of who Cam was. People don't remember this.

350
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 3: When I was at the University of Florida, they called

351
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 3: me Cameron Newton. Yeah, when I went to Auburn, it

352
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 3: was Cam Newton. So for me, that was the creation

353
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,719
Speaker 3: of Cam two completely different people. I knew how to

354
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 3: compartmentalize those different people, and I didn't let that situation

355
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 3: use me.

356
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: I used it. And when I look at my impact.

357
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:58,719
Speaker 3: To football, I love to say people's favorite NFL player

358
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 3: just started the get good in the NFL. I've been

359
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 3: good at football, by the grace of God. I was

360
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 3: good in high school, I was good in college, I

361
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 3: was good in junior college, and I was good in

362
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 3: the NFL. There's not a lot of players that can

363
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 3: say that. And it took a measure of focus and

364
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:25,479
Speaker 3: discipline and also vulnerableness to understand, like Bro, like you,

365
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 3: I here by yourself. So when I talk to my

366
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 3: seven or seven kids, when I talk to kids around,

367
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 3: you know the world, and I tell them, like Bro,

368
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 3: I know what it's like to not have shit and

369
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 3: you so close to what you want.

370
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 1: It ain't out of your reach.

371
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 3: You just got to tap in and use this game

372
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 3: of football and not get jaded by the distractions, the money,

373
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 3: the nils, the the.

374
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 1: Woman, all these different things. Stay focused.

375
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 2: You go to Auburn. Then there's this Auburn bought Cam Newton.

376
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 2: His daddy received this large monetary summer money.

377
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 1: How what would so? So, what's going on? How did

378
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: this come about?

379
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 3: Allegedly?

380
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 1: Yes, you know.

381
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,400
Speaker 2: Before you so, where were the schools that you could

382
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 2: have gone to? Okay, you go to Auburn. So where

383
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 2: after Blend? Where were your choices?

384
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 3: Oklahoma, Kansas State, Mississippi State, Auburn. It was a whole

385
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 3: different recruitment process when I was in jew Ko.

386
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: Rather than coming out of high school ship out.

387
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 3: Of high school, I was looking for gear and a

388
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 3: good time right by way of you know, female the hostesses,

389
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 3: Yeah and Juko. Oh I was I was a millionaire mentality.

390
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 3: How are y'all going to incorporate me in this offense

391
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 3: with my skill set?

392
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: Not what.

393
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 3: Sam Bradford was doing, because that ain't how I play

394
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 3: the game. I'm gonna bring a whole different element of

395
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 3: this offense that you gotta start shaping some shit around

396
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,400
Speaker 3: Kansas State the same way Misssippi State.

397
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: Dann Mullen right, and he.

398
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 3: Knew Dan Mullin was the officive coordinator and the quarterback

399
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 3: coach while I was at Florida. Okay, so you have

400
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 3: some familiarity. There were a lot of familiarity. And his

401
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 3: plan was I remember coach Muller had called me, and

402
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 3: at that time, me being the type of player I was,

403
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 3: if a coach calling you, that means you ain't going

404
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 3: to study hall, you didn't go to class.

405
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 1: It was something.

406
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 3: But this conversation was him telling me that he was

407
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 3: going Misisispi State to Missippi State. It ended up being

408
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,239
Speaker 3: mischiss State. He didn't tell me the team, and I

409
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 3: was saying to myself, well, he asked he wanted me

410
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 3: to consider transferring to Misisisppi State, but coach not Mamason.

411
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: Coach Meyer, Urban had to.

412
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 3: Sign off on that, and I knew he wasn't going

413
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 3: to sign off for that, so I had to go

414
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 3: to junior college. Now, when you when you say the

415
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 3: things like going through the whole n.

416
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 1: Cuba pay for play scandal.

417
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 3: This is where I don't think I've ever had the

418
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 3: opportunity to share this. If you really go back and

419
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 3: you know the reports to what it said, it said

420
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 3: two sources, yes, said that Cam Newton and his father

421
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 3: took money to go.

422
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: To Auburn.

423
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 3: Those two sources was Dan Mullen and his wife Megan Mullen.

424
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: How do we get to that, I'll tell you.

425
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 3: The day I was going to commit to Auburn out

426
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 3: of junior college, it was neck and neck Missippi State, Mississippi.

427
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: State of Auburn.

428
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 3: When I went to Auburn, as my mentor was solely

429
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 3: focused on success, I was really trying to play catch

430
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 3: up to the Joe Haydens, the Marquise Pouncy's, the Aaron

431
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 3: Nandez who were already in the league. And I said

432
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,919
Speaker 3: to myself, we came in together in Florida, they already

433
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 3: in the league. I'm trying to find the fastest way

434
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 3: that I can get to the league. When I went

435
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 3: to Auburn, they mentioned that they would have twenty two

436
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 3: seniors coming back.

437
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: Mississippi State probably only had three to four.

438
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 3: These are all different things As a twenty year old

439
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 3: college player and a sixteen seventeen year old kid. You

440
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 3: don't think that that's a big thing, but it really is.

441
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 3: My whole determined factor was I wanted to go to

442
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:59,439
Speaker 3: a school that could get me to a BCS game.

443
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 3: It was either the Tosedos Bowl, Orange Bowl, Sugar Bowl,

444
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 3: whatever if I went there, and my tenure at that school,

445
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 3: I was going top ten because I knew in order

446
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 3: for us to get there, I would have to play

447
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 3: my best former football. When I was about to commit

448
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 3: to Auburn, one of the things that my father told

449
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 3: me that I had to do as a man. He said,

450
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 3: you got to call coach Mullen and you have to

451
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 3: tell him the decision that you're gonna make.

452
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 1: Be a man. Said, damn, Pop, Like, why.

453
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 3: Though, you know what I'm saying, you gonna find you

454
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, But that's how.

455
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,199
Speaker 1: My father raised me. He said, So you're gonna have

456
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 1: to be a man.

457
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 3: And that's that's that's where I always challenge society. Now

458
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:55,880
Speaker 3: we need more men empowering men, not boys raising boys.

459
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 3: You did you know what I'm saying. But certain circumstances

460
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 3: play out like that. But to that point, I put

461
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 3: a lot of focus on my font. I said, pop,

462
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 3: you a man of God. If it's on your heart

463
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 3: to wherever we're gonna decide to go, that's where we're

464
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 3: gonna go.

465
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 1: Man.

466
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 3: At that time, we were exploring so many different things,

467
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 3: and he came back wrote it down on a sheet

468
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 3: of paper.

469
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: I unlooked.

470
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 3: I looked at it. It had Auburn on it. I said,

471
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 3: I ain't gonna even question it. That's where we're going.

472
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 1: Okay.

473
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 3: That day that I was gonna make it public, I

474
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 3: had to call Coach Mullen.

475
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: I remember having a conversation.

476
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 3: It was extremely awkward because when I called him, he answered,

477
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 3: how's my quarterback doing? And I said, Coach, I just

478
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 3: wanted to be a man to call you and tell

479
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 3: you and Miss Megan that I'm going to Auburn.

480
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 1: Now.

481
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,120
Speaker 3: I didn't want you to hear it through the grape vines.

482
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 3: I don't want you to hear it on ESPN. I

483
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 3: wanted to be a man to call you. And he

484
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 3: asked me this question, but how cam like you know?

485
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,160
Speaker 3: I was going to do right by you. We need you,

486
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,880
Speaker 3: And I gave him this quote. It was just too

487
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 3: good to be true now, too good to be true

488
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 3: for me was you got twenty two seniors. They battle tested.

489
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 3: I ain't going into a locker room with freshmen. These

490
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 3: they ready to win right now. They just need me

491
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 3: to propel them to elite status. Missippi State needed meet

492
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 3: and son, and I don't think Mississippi State garners the

493
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:36,120
Speaker 3: measure of recruits like Corol. It's Mississippi State here and

494
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 3: still Misippi State at that particular point in time.

495
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: And I heard Miss Meghan in the background. I was like,

496
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 1: did he commit?

497
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 3: Did he commit?

498
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 1: He was like no, And then that's when I talked

499
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: to her.

500
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 3: I was like, man, I just apologized, but this is

501
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 3: a business decision that I'm sad and.

502
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:55,360
Speaker 1: That it didn't work out.

503
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 3: Had that conversation when I was twenty and I thought

504
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 3: I was doing the right thing. So fast forward to

505
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 3: the success going on at Auburn. First game we played

506
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 3: Arkansas State. I think the next game or the first

507
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 3: prime time game we had was versus Mississippi State. It

508
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 3: was on a Thursday night. We ended up winning that

509
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 3: football game. And I'm big on energy. I'm big on

510
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 3: just posture and certain things. At the end of the game,

511
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 3: I looked at him and I wanted I wanted to

512
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 3: shake his hand and say coach man, appreciate you, man,

513
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 3: thank you. And it was iffy though, No, what the what?

514
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 3: What the hood teach you like? You know what I'm saying,

515
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 3: like my spidery sense.

516
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: Was he on some bull you did?

517
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, I ain't really know what

518
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:50,679
Speaker 3: it was.

519
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 1: His wife was there.

520
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 3: We spoke condolences, man, good luck for the rest of

521
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 3: the year. You know what I'm saying, bose bla. The

522
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 3: report came two weeks after that, and if you remember,

523
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 3: it was two sources.

524
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 1: It was Dan Mullen and his wife that created all this.

525
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 3: Ruckus Cam and his daddy took money. Now fast forward

526
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 3: to now when it's becoming a big story. I remember

527
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 3: after the game, we had another prime time game on

528
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 3: Saturday night, we played South Carolina. That was when the

529
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,400
Speaker 3: world knew who Cam knew. It was.

530
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: Another phone called by coach Coach Chizzick.

531
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 3: And anybody who played at Auburn new if somebody's calling

532
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 3: you from a no call, ID, it's Coach Chizy. That

533
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 3: ain't a good call that you want to have. But

534
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 3: I was in good standards, you know what I'm saying.

535
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 3: We undefeated at that particular point thing you said, Cam,

536
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,400

576
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 3: or who got it, but the NC double A is

577
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:59,239
Speaker 3: about to open an investigation and uncover as much as

578
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 3: they possibly can. And during that stint, from that week

579
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 3: on throughout even the National Championship, that burden was always

580
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 3: on and I no longer was an amateur athlete.

581
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: I had to operate as if I was a CEO.

582
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 3: I had to operate and be stoic and be strong,

583
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 3: and when somebody would ask cam you all right, yeah, yeah, yeah,

584
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 3: I'm good, knowing good and well, I was suffering in silence.

585
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 3: Nobody could could go through what I went through. Not

586
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 3: my family, not my teammates, not my coaches. Not only

587
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 3: am I being investigated throughout the day. I'm trying to

588
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 3: play the best form of football that I possibly can

589
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 3: during game time and I'm going through so much.

590
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 1: I can't speak to them.

591
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 3: I'm talking to my dad, I'm talking to my brothers,

592
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 3: I'm talking to you know, my family.

593
00:31:58,240 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: But they don't get it.

594
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 3: They there for support, but it's not like we understand

595
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 3: what you said. That's the only thing that they can say.

596
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 3: And I'm saying to myself, bro, it's hard. We're playing

597
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 3: after that. You got LSU, you got Arkansas, you got Georgia,

598
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 3: you got all these games, and I'm like, yo, on

599
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 3: top of that, this is the greatest season that the

600
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 3: Auburn University has ever had. You got Alabama?

601
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: How are you doing this?

602
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 3: I was having an outer body experience in my body

603
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 3: like I'm like, yo, I'm surprising myself with the measure

604
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 3: of focus that I had to go through and still

605
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 3: That's what brought my family closer. Because even though I know,

606
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 3: even though I knew, still to this day, nobody took

607
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 3: money from it. That was just a grenade thrown into

608
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 3: the crowd to just have a bitter person. He didn't

609
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 3: come to my school, so he had to have tooken

610
00:32:58,280 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 3: some money to go to that school because we had

611
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 3: our had a relationship. But I was thinking to myself, Hell,

612
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 3: you didn't play me while you was at Florida. These

613
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 3: are all things that I'm saying, like I seen your

614
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 3: true self, right, I didn't want to get burnt twice.

615
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 3: So on top of that, these things are happening. And

616
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 3: through it all, like I said, by the grace of God,

617
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 3: I was able to still perform at a high level.

618
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 1: And my father jumped on that grenade. No one good

619
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: and well.

620
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 3: He ain't take no money, no one good and well.

621
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 3: He said, look, how can we allow my son to

622
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 3: play Well, we're gonna need somebody to take there, to

623
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 3: take this rap. My father said, without blinking, I take it.

624
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 3: Paint me however you want to paint me right, I'll

625
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 3: do it for my son. He gonna be eligible to

626
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 3: play cool. I'll take it well. Cecil you can't, you

627
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 3: can't come to no more games. And still to this day,

628
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 3: it was told while during the Heisman ceremony, they said,

629
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 3: I think it's best for you not to show up

630
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 3: for that.

631
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 1: I took that personal.

632
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 2: And the person that meant the most, that had the

633
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 2: greatest impact on Cam Newton, the player, the man that

634
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 2: he became at at his highest moment to date, the

635
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 2: man that meant so much to you couldn't be there to.

636
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: Share it with you. I could not share the moment.

637
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 3: I remember winning the Heisman ceremony stutter and I was nervous,

638
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 3: but I didn't want to be there.

639
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: I wanted to be with my dad. I wanted to

640
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 1: be with my family.

641
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 3: Because this was my opportunity to show my dad like

642
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 3: thank him, to thank him. But also my dad challenged

643
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 3: me every day. Boy that's not right. Boy, you got

644
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 3: to be a man. From I'm seven, eight, twelve, thirteen, fifteen,

645
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 3: six seventeen, still in college, So you got to be

646
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 3: a man that ain't no man, Take responsibility, take accountability.

647
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 3: This was this was me showing him, Papa being a man.

648
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 3: Look at me, look at what you created. Man, Man,

649
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 3: it's us. This ain't just me. This ain't Cam Newton.

650
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,320
Speaker 3: This for our whole lineage. This is for the whole

651
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 3: Newton name. This is what you created. Let me share

652
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 3: that with you. Everybody was excited, but they stripped that

653
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 3: from me. But Archie Manny, that ain't no question. But

654
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 3: if it's lamar Ball, that's a problem. Deon Sanders, Oh,

655
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 3: he playing all that or that these are great forms

656
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 3: of King Richard, men who meant so much, and that

657
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 3: was trying to put their family in the best situation.

658
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods father, that was these people.

659
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 3: My father has did nothing wrong and was painted as

660
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 3: a villain.

661
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 1: Still to this day, he still ain't been back to

662
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: offer truth be told. Do you get an opportunity to

663
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 1: get back to.

664
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,360
Speaker 3: Auburn, Yeah, but I ain't never been back to the

665
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 3: Heisman for what. They didn't care about my family at

666
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 3: that point in time, because if they knew, we was

667
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 3: telling everybody like one hundred and two hundred thousand, you

668
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 3: can't hide that, not in my community, not in my culture.

669
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 3: You would have seen it in a car. You would

670
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 3: have seen it in the house. Yeah, you would have

671
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 3: seen it in something, a business, the church.

672
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: Something. They couldn't find nothing.

673
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 3: And this was an investigation that took place for more

674
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 3: than about three to five years. Nothing but when I'm suffering,

675
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,919
Speaker 3: and all everybody really cared is are you all right?

676
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 3: Can you play? I was ineligible for a day, and boy,

677
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 3: who what we gonna do? I got eligible again, and

678
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 3: now it put everybody at ease, not knowing that, like, bro, I'm.

679
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,839
Speaker 1: Fucked up, y'all at these I'm not at ease.

680
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 3: But I used those what is it twelve minutes? I

681
00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 3: used that forty minutes for forty two minutes on Saturday

682
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 3: to inflict what was being afflicted to me, complete disregard

683
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 3: to how I felt, and whoever I was playing, they

684
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 3: was gonna feel me. So you're seeing a lot of

685
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 3: examples of me using my circumstance, not letting my circumstance

686
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 3: use me.

687
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 1: Jimmy Clauson, Tim Tebow, Irvin Meyer.

688
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 3: The n C double A, damn man, somebody got to

689
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 3: pay for this, and I'm doing this is a peaceful

690
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,959
Speaker 3: protest sort to speak. I ain't going off the rail

691
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,320
Speaker 3: and saying like, man, let me tell y'all. Bro'all, y'all,

Speaker 3: all everybody seeing then like this was big news that

695
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 3: you don't care about my family. People were staking out

696
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 3: of my house asking like it's did you do it?

697
00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,160
Speaker 3: Going into stadiums where they disrespected me by playing on

698
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 3: of a preacher man. These are facts, all Scam Newton, You.

699
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: Think what I'm saying, Yes, let's say that's the.

700
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 3: Whole thing that people ain't thinking about what I went through.

701
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 3: And I'm telling you, like bro, that ain't. That's what

702
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 3: I displayed. There is no different than what an average

703
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,839
Speaker 3: black man or black family goes through on a regularity.

704
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: It may not be through sports.

705
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 3: It may be through circumstance, mom working two and three

706
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 3: jobs to provide, single parent or the fathers is not around,

707
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,399
Speaker 3: or he's trying to provide as best as he can.

708
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 3: These are all trauma that I was lucky to use

709
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 3: that trauma to put on my shoulder the South. I

710
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 3: gotta keep going, I gotta keep going. This my way out.

711
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 3: I ain't about to be no doctor, I ain't about

712
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,280
Speaker 3: to be no lawyer. I'm about to be a football player.

713
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 3: And I don't care what my circumstance say is. I

714
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 3: gotta perform and put that compartmentalize that, put that away

715
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 3: for these forty two minutes while I show the world I'm.

716
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 2: The best football player the game the Iron Bowl. You

717
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 2: guys go down twenty four to nothing. That team is loaded.

718
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 3: That's that may be the best Alabama team ever.

719
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 2: You guys are in tuscalooser, you fall behind twenty four nothing.

720
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: That you say, Carolina put you up.

721
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 2: But that was the game that was your you know,

722
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,319
Speaker 2: say a Heisman moment, you had a Heisman game. The

723
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,920
Speaker 2: entirety of the game from the point that you were

724
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 2: down twenty four to nothing could really be your highlights

725
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 2: and you don't need any others. Yeah, what's going through

726
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 2: your mind? What's the team's psyche at that point in time?

727
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 2: You're in Tuscaloosa.

728
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 3: That's your chiefest ribber, that's through That might be the

729
00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 3: greatest rivalry in college sports. I understand Duke North, Carolin,

730
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 3: Ohio State, Michigan, but they're not in state.

731
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 2: And it's divided. You either love Alabama and hate Alburt.

732
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 2: You either love Albred or you hate Alabama. There is

733
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 2: no in between.

734
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 3: It ain't no cousins.

735
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,399
Speaker 1: You know, it's bad blood and.

736
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 3: I didn't know that, And I think coach Chiswick did

737
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 3: a great job leading up until that week.

738
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:23,360
Speaker 1: Because that always will.

739
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 3: Be the game around Thanksgiving and school's out. That's just

740
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 3: the first introduction to what professional sports will be. All

741
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 3: we had to do is prepare for that game, you know,

742
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 3: training table, workout, watch film, whatever, and he would give

743
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 3: us speakers to talk about what that game was like.

744
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 1: Now.

745
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,520

748
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,640

780
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 3: that stamp of approval that we want to hear. What

781
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,759
Speaker 3: your take was what was it like in the locker room?

782
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 3: Did you have to grab somebody by the shoulder path

783
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 3: to say, mother fuck a less fucking gold like you

784
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 3: bullshit and we bullshit.

785
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm bullshit too, but shit, we.

786
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 3: Got thirty more minutes to impact the rest of our lives.

787
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,279
Speaker 3: What we're gonna do. I'm about to barbecue motherfuckers. You're

788
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 3: gonna get a plate that's rock and roll them. Type

789
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,280
Speaker 3: of stories you can't get by just reporting the news

790
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 3: because it takes a different measure of experience. And even

791
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,360
Speaker 3: though Travis Kelsey may be able to be talked to

792
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 3: in this type of way, you can't talk to Shannon

793
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 3: shout like that. Sometimes you don't even gotta talk to it.

794
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 1: You just gotta look you sure, bro s let's go,

795
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 1: let's get it.

796
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 3: Those type of connections or wi fi is something that

797
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 3: only having the experience in the game can share that

798
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,720
Speaker 3: And I did not want that opportunity to be missed

799
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:57,360
Speaker 3: because I was fighting so much more off the field

800
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 3: that on the field was just a playground. That was

801
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,560
Speaker 3: my place of refuge. You can't talk to me, reporter

802
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 3: while I'm playing. Yeah, I'm at peace. Blah blah, la

803
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,520
Speaker 3: la la la, la lah Lah. And every time I ran,

804
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 3: I ran with with with with a vengeance. I wanted

805
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 3: to hurt somebody because I was hurt, and I used

806
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,640
Speaker 3: it as a way to give me my edge.

807
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 2: Right when you look at that roster, you mentioned Percy Harvey,

808
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 2: Brandon Spikes, Joe Hayden, Dune, lapt your North, Jenkin, Mike,

809
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:29,400
Speaker 2: and Maurice Pouncy.

810
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:30,400
Speaker 3: Uh.

811
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 1: Person said he smoked smoked weed before every game? Did

812
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:34,799
Speaker 1: you know? Did you know?

813
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 3: Yo?

814
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 1: Did you guys party that hard care?

815
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 3: Pam?

816
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,360
Speaker 1: It was untouchable in games. Shit, I ain't gonna lie.

817
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 3: I was so disappointed in the in the documentary because

818
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 3: they left out so much. Well it leave out shit, Percy,

819
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 3: Go talk to person, Go talk to Charlie Strong, shit,

820
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,399
Speaker 3: Go talk to Joe Hayden. You see what I'm saying.

821
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 3: Ask them the real and they would have did that

822
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 3: shit for free. Fuck all the Netflix deals and all

823
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:05,759
Speaker 3: that shit, Like we need to tell you want to

824
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 3: tell this the real story.

825
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:07,760
Speaker 1: Shit.

826
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 3: That was a very toxic locker room where they we

827
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:17,759
Speaker 3: still had success, but damn it was a combination of

828
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,440
Speaker 3: a lot of talent that was boiling over and there

829
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 3: was times where it was just unmanageable. And then there

830
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 3: was also times where it was a thing of beauty,

831
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 3: where it was a competition every day, every practice, like

832
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 3: we competed, and even though Tim Tebow was a person

833
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,240
Speaker 3: who I wanted to be better than, Tim Tebow made.

834
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: Everybody better because he competed.

835
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 3: That energy that he had, that screaming, that rid and

836
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 3: that ah, that's something that I could connect with, and

837
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 3: he connected with everybody else, even a stadium.

838
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 2: There was a situation, you have a seven on seven.

839
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,120
Speaker 2: You mentioned a seven on seven that you have here,

840
00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson is and to come through your camp. Justin

841
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 2: Fields has come through your camp. And I remember telling

842
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 2: your dad the first time this was a couple of

843
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:09,239
Speaker 2: years ago that it was documented and the kids I

844
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,719
Speaker 2: felt were being disrespectful, not all kids, but some was

845
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,359
Speaker 2: being very disrespectful. And I remember calling you Dad, I said,

846
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 2: see if I was Cam, I can for that. I said,

847
00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 2: because the one thing is that I'm taking time out

848
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:20,560
Speaker 2: of my busy schedule and I'm trying to give back,

849
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 2: and the one thing I will not allow is kids

850
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 2: to be disrespectful. And he just said he I remember

851
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 2: him saying, a matter of fact, down how Cam is

852
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,759
Speaker 2: cam gonna keep it going and keep and because he

853
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 2: believes in this and he want to give back to community.

854
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,839
Speaker 2: And then earlier this year, you had a situation where

855
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,000
Speaker 2: you have a seven on seven and I thought it

856
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 2: was kids, but it was later reported that there were coaches.

857
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:46,160
Speaker 2: They were adults that you ended up getting into it with.

858
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,719
Speaker 2: And I don't understand how you stayed. So, I mean,

859
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,239
Speaker 2: your hat them fly, the dreads weren't going nowhere. You

860
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:55,080
Speaker 2: stayed immaculately dropping with Camp. I like, this can't be real.

861
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 2: I just got to be CG because ain't no way

862
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 2: a man getting a tussle. You got one of the

863
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 2: headlocked you, you strong arm in one, you throw him

864
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:03,719
Speaker 2: in the bushes, and the other would come up like

865
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 2: with damn cat.

866
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, well so what what what transpired?

867
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 1: What led up to that confrontation?

868
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 3: They were coaches that was at one point a part

869
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 3: of See one End, and that familiarity was something that.

870
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 1: You know, we knew each other.

871
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 3: Okay, words were said, and I always say I got

872
00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:32,040
Speaker 3: my pH d.

873
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 1: And shit talking.

874
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 3: I could talk ship with the best of them. It

875
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,080
Speaker 3: don't matter if it's a young boy, It don't matter

876
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 3: if it's a preacher. It don't matter if it's an

877
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 3: opposing opponent, It don't matter who it is. I can

878
00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 3: keep it governed in how you want to talk. And

879
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,840
Speaker 3: the truth of the matter was a lot of people

880
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 3: when they when they see you as equal, they will talk.

881
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 1: To you as if you were equal. And I show

882
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:04,799
Speaker 1: myself so much.

883
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,879
Speaker 3: I exert my uh my time and energy so much

884
00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 3: to people that they get so comfortable. Now I'm right

885
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 3: right who I am, and in large part that's what

886
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:21,239
Speaker 3: I want. And also, but don't forget like who like bro,

887
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 3: there's not a lot of people that have done what

888
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 3: I've done, and I don't use that as a banner,

889
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 3: like I'm Cam Newt and it was just like yo,

890
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 3: y'all talking, I'm talking and.

891
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 1: Then boom, it's gonna be what it's gonna be. So

892
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 1: they see the the.

893
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 3: Sauce, they see the smile, they see all these different things, and.

894
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:45,320
Speaker 1: You'll fuck around and find out they take that for weakness.

895
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:47,839
Speaker 1: They take it for weakness. And even for the kids,

896
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:48,680
Speaker 1: they see that they.

897
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 3: See you always running around. Yo. See when the three

898
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,160
Speaker 3: see when they bless the baby, all that they they

899
00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:00,360
Speaker 3: get distracted by. That's still Cam new in the of

900
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 3: the Year, the Heisman Trophy, one of the MVP, and

901
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:06,239
Speaker 3: nobody's really they're not used to seeing somebody of my

902
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 3: magnitude exert themselves in that space because it's it's really

903
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 3: like a for an expression or an analog. It's like

904
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 3: a rock a park. It's wraw cut. You know, seven

905
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:26,359
Speaker 3: o seven gives you that platform to talk shit.

906
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: Do you think you need to temper it?

907
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 2: Because you say you put yourself on that level and

908
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,120
Speaker 2: when people see you as the level, they see you

909
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:34,919
Speaker 2: as an equal, they will talk to you as such.

910
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,960
Speaker 2: I'm from the South, your dad from the South. I

911
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 2: know he told you Cam how dynamic is never gonna change.

912
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,400
Speaker 2: I'm dad your son, Sir, You're not gonna be on

913
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 2: my level. And he doesn't put you on his level,

914
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:49,360
Speaker 2: you under do I put him on my level exactly.

915
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 2: So do you think moving forward you might need to

916
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 2: temper that where you put people on your level and

917
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 2: then you stay in your place and you allow them

918
00:49:58,640 --> 00:49:59,880
Speaker 2: to stay in their space.

919
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 1: In this situation.

920
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 3: No, because I tell you this, I'm not quiet about

921
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 3: seeing where I'm from.

922
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:08,960
Speaker 1: I'm from Atlanta, Georgia, yep.

923
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:12,440
Speaker 3: And I don't want to just appease to Buckhead and

924
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 3: not appease to Bankhead.

925
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:15,280
Speaker 1: And even if you don't.

926
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 3: Know where those different areas in Atlanta is, you know

927
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:22,399
Speaker 3: exactly what I'm saying. And when I was growing up,

928
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 3: Michael Vick was that person where if he would have

929
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 3: said camp or anybody, I'm throwing at camp and I

930
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:32,840
Speaker 3: want somebody to be a part of my team, man, I.

931
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 1: Would have did anything to be a part of it

932
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:38,040
Speaker 1: because he was my hero.

933
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 3: Still am my hero. Risk every single time I see

934
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 3: the Michael Vick's, the pac Man's that they're like, Bro,

935
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 3: you that motherfucker that I wanted to be, Vince Young.

936
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:47,320
Speaker 1: That guy.

937
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,800
Speaker 3: These are the guys that I wanted to be like.

938
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,319
Speaker 3: So I will always keep that respect there. So now

939
00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 3: me being in a position that I am now, the

940
00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 3: Justin Fields, the Deshaun Watson's, Nicks, the Sam Howells, these

941
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 3: quarterbacks that have come and that's just the name, the

942
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:07,919
Speaker 3: ones that you may know, not to mention the ones

943
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:11,320
Speaker 3: that you don't know. And also other players Travis Hunter,

944
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 3: George Pickens, did Cam Sutton. Even though what he's going

945
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 3: through right now, these players came through and I was

946
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:22,000
Speaker 3: trying to tell them then bro, use the game of

947
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:25,719
Speaker 3: football because it can get you everything you want. You

948
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 3: gotta commit, you gotta be disciplined, don't get distracted. So

949
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 3: it's hard for me to remove myself from a platform

950
00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 3: where I impact way more than people see. Then that

951
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:40,640
Speaker 3: viral moment going where somebody's swinging on this person and

952
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:42,719
Speaker 3: swinging on that person, and I'm saying to myself, I

953
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,960
Speaker 3: was so grateful because it could have gotten and ugly

954
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,359
Speaker 3: on both sides. If they would have pulled out a knife,

955
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 3: if they would have pulled out a gun, that's for them.

956
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 3: If my side would have been there, I was by myself.

957
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 3: I was triggered. And that was the thing now where

958
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,759
Speaker 3: even when I have these conversations with my girls, she said,

959
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:03,800
Speaker 3: Cam like, you gotta got kids.

960
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 1: You got eight kids.

961
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:07,799
Speaker 3: What I'm gonna do if you go right, you get

962
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 3: knocked in a coma, What's like, what's your family gonna do?

963
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 3: So these are things that I think about myself, and

964
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 3: I'm saying to myself, I mean too much to.

965
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 1: Too many people.

966
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:22,240
Speaker 3: Yes, for me to get detracted from what the vision

967
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,759
Speaker 3: and the focus is, because a lot of people live

968
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 3: vicariously through me, and whether they give me the credit

969
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:31,439
Speaker 3: I deserve or not. That still can't distract me from

970
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,839
Speaker 3: my mission, and that's always to impact and empowered the

971
00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:35,480
Speaker 3: next generation.

972
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 2: Let's talk about your upbringing. Your dad, he's a couple

973
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 2: of years older than me, went to Savannah State. Your

974
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:43,960
Speaker 2: mom is from Savannah. Obviously Savannah State and then Savannah.

975
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:47,560
Speaker 2: How was Cam's upbringing. Your dad's a minister, so I'm

976
00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:50,440
Speaker 2: assuming that the upbringing was fairly strict.

977
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 1: Yo, extremely strict.

978
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 3: And with me smoking this cigar right now, it's.

979
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:58,359
Speaker 1: Still hey, hey boy, hey, turn it down.

980
00:52:58,880 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 3: Turn it down.

981
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: Your cutn't too much. I ain't raised it like that.

982
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:05,400
Speaker 3: Boy. You know, those are things that I see not loud,

983
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 3: but that's him, that man. But people have to understand,

984
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 3: even when I'm expressing myself to this day, they got

985
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,759
Speaker 3: to understand where I come from. My father didn't have

986
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,840
Speaker 3: the meanings that I have, but he always was an alpha.

987
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:21,200
Speaker 3: His presence was gonna be felt. Whether he was wearing

988
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:26,399
Speaker 3: some raggedy clothes or wearing a liber rocket suit, didn't matter.

989
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:29,839
Speaker 3: My father had that aura about him. This is the

990
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:34,319
Speaker 3: man that I wanted to impress, So he raised me

991
00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 3: to be this way. Growing up in the church, it

992
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 3: was extremely strict. I can't remember a time where you know,

993
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,239
Speaker 3: I didn't have a curfew. That don't mean I didn't

994
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,279
Speaker 3: sneak out, you know what I'm saying, But I would

995
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:50,240
Speaker 3: always say it like this. I knew and know what's

996
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,320
Speaker 3: right and what's wrong. I didn't always do right with them.

997
00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 3: You see what I'm saying. I grew up in the

998
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:59,600
Speaker 3: three parent household, my mom, my father as well as

999
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:05,280
Speaker 3: my grandma mother. And yes, sir, no, sir, no, ma'am, yes, ma'am.

1001
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:12,319
Speaker 1: Huh what? Yeah?

00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 3: Uh what?

1003
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:17,880
Speaker 1: No, it's yes, it's yes, sir, it's no.

1005
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:23,719
Speaker 3: when I'm talking to you, as a measure of respect,

1006
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 3: but also understanding that you you are digesting the processing.

1007
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:31,320
Speaker 1: Make sure you understand, you listening and understanding with those things.

1008
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:34,880
Speaker 3: It's like I always tell the parents that come through

1009
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:40,200
Speaker 3: our program, just like the players, what this society needs.

1010
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 1: Is for parents to be parents.

1011
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:47,040
Speaker 3: We don't need no more friends home reading at homegirls.

1012
00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:50,400
Speaker 3: And you know he just see alright, he gonna be good. No,

1019
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,759
Speaker 3: all these different things. Like I'm telling you, so that

1020
00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:18,239
Speaker 3: comes from the way that they're being raised. And when

1021
00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:21,040
Speaker 3: we started putting the owners back on the parents, that's

1022
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 3: when society would change.

Speaker 3: to see what a positive male figure is in their life.

1089
00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:55,840
Speaker 1: I'm not just out here just slaying and leaving, No.

1090
00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:59,080
Speaker 2: But it's difficult cam when you've been in a situation

1091
00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:02,080
Speaker 2: for a life long period of time. If I'm not mistaken,

1092
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 2: I think the first situation, you've in that situation for

1093
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:09,840
Speaker 2: probably about a decade and to leave and you know,

1094
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure it was a very uncomfortable conversation that you

1095
00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 2: had to have.

1096
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:18,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, but things happen though, okay, And as you know,

1097
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 3: when you know we all in the public EUY try

1098
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 3: to keep personal, yes, personal, but I want to be

1099
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 3: an example for people that I've.

1100
00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 1: Never proclaimed to be perfect.

1101
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:34,920
Speaker 3: Learn from me. We can talk about everything. And I

1102
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:40,959
Speaker 3: think when you look at my career Juco, high school, professional,

1103
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:43,800
Speaker 3: I've been that guy for a long period of time.

1104
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:45,960
Speaker 3: I had a lot of temptations. I had a lot

1105
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 3: of mess ups along that way too. So that's why

1106
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 3: I'm relatable to these kids, my kids or anybody else's.

1107
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:56,439
Speaker 3: I know what you're going through, bro, but that don't

1108
00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 3: mean you can't fail this class, because if you fail

1109
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,960
Speaker 3: the class, you're not going to past Clearehouse.

1110
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 1: Talk to me, I done did.

1111
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:07,200
Speaker 3: A lot just because of who you see today, don't

1112
01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:08,160
Speaker 3: mean I ain't been.

1113
01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:08,560
Speaker 1: Through a lot.

1114
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:11,840
Speaker 3: And they always try to put that on how old

1115
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,600
Speaker 3: you are, Like, no, I don't been through a lot

01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 3: of stuff, bro. Some things that I'm proud to say

1117
01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:19,520
Speaker 3: and some things that I'm not proud to say.

1118
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:22,280
Speaker 2: The meaning do you remember have you seen the meme

1119
01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:24,439
Speaker 2: of you? And I think it was Josh Norman getting

01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:26,560
Speaker 2: into it. They got a meme of you, Bro, They

1126
01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:45,479
Speaker 3: I was having this conversation and the way media is now,

1127
01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:53,280
Speaker 3: by the time my son gets to high school or

1128
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:57,160
Speaker 3: my daughter gets to high school, they won't even remember

1129
01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:01,080
Speaker 3: Cam Newton as a football player. Mm hmm, because it's

1130
01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 3: so direct to consumer YouTube.

1131
01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:08,120
Speaker 2: I was willing to be so far removed, so far removed,

1132
01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:10,920
Speaker 2: and if you get really good at this camp, people

1133
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 2: will forget that you actually played the game because I

1134
01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:15,120
Speaker 2: get a lot of times people like, well, how do

1135
01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:16,440

1141
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:35,440
Speaker 3: in you though. But that thing for me is like journalism,

1142
01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:39,120
Speaker 3: not just media. Journalism has changed, yes, over the years,

1143
01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:42,680
Speaker 3: and how people digest that right, and we're in the

1144
01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:46,479
Speaker 3: golden era of that. We don't have to just wait

1145
01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 3: on ESPN to report sports. We can go to Direct

1146

1147
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:59,919
Speaker 3: podcasts to get the news right, you know. And that's

1148
01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:01,320
Speaker 3: you don't need a middleman.

1149
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:05,480
Speaker 2: No, Because there's something Cam wants to say, Cam has platforms.

1150
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:08,920
Speaker 2: He can just say it right and with no misinterpretation.

1151
01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:11,520
Speaker 3: No, you ain't gotta wait for me to do a

1152
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 3: magazine special or or or a newspaper right now, that's

1153
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:22,840
Speaker 3: gonna get misconstrued. I'm gonna tell you how I really feel.

1154
01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:26,040
Speaker 2: When you were in Carolina, your neighbor was Michael Jordan. Yes, sir,

1155
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:34,360
Speaker 2: Mike loves to gamble. Uh bout ray and uh you

1156
01:02:34,400 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 2: don't play b ray.

1157
01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:38,080
Speaker 1: No. That ship right there, that's that's a relationship killer.

1158
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:41,600
Speaker 3: He got every type of person you know, you know

1159
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:44,320
Speaker 3: your constentuate on night Cap, he got Mother Buckers bringing

1160
01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:46,320
Speaker 3: pistols to the arena.

1161
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:49,840
Speaker 1: All off boot Ray. Yeah.

1162
01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:52,480
Speaker 3: I do some gambling and I think I learned this,

1163
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 3: uh this quote around him Michael Jordan, that is it

1164
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:59,360
Speaker 3: was having just a lebanter. Somebody asked him, he said, hey,

1165
01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 3: how much you want to bet on this? Simply said

1166
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:02,760
Speaker 3: by Mike.

1167
01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:06,920
Speaker 1: Whatever makes you nervous?

1168
01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 3: That's him. I said, dude, that's a flex right now. Yeah,

1169
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:13,200
Speaker 3: but it is what it is. But you asked yourself

1170
01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:20,320
Speaker 3: why does gambling so prominent with athletes? Because that rush

1171
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:27,520
Speaker 3: is either gambling or you playing a sport. It coincides

1172
01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:31,320
Speaker 3: because the nervousness, the anxiousness that you kind of get

1173
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 3: the thrill.

1174
01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:34,880
Speaker 1: It's like, is he gonna make the shot? What's coming next?

1175
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:35,840
Speaker 3: Coming? Next?

1176
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,080
Speaker 2: What card? Is he gonna get the car? If I

1177
01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:40,600
Speaker 2: go get the car. There's a lot riding on this.

1178
01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:43,880
Speaker 3: At a lot of probability, you know what I'm saying.

1179
01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:45,360
Speaker 3: So it is what it is so.

1180
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:46,360
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1181
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:49,800
Speaker 3: I learned a lot from from from m J. Very

1182
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:55,480
Speaker 3: positive and and who I am today always was accessible

1183
01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:59,000
Speaker 3: to knowledge, you know what I'm saying, and just to

1184
01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:01,280
Speaker 3: who what he reaped resents for the culture and worthy

1185
01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:04,480
Speaker 3: represents for us today is something that I've always marveled.

1186
01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:07,040
Speaker 2: If Cam Newton never plays another down in the NFL,

1187
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:08,640
Speaker 2: are you satisfied with your career?

1188
01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:14,439
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, because I gave everything, everything to this game

1189
01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:18,240
Speaker 3: of football, and in the famous words of Frank Sinatra,

1190
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:22,160
Speaker 3: you did it. I did it my way, from the

1191
01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:26,480
Speaker 3: fashion to the way I presented myself to everything else.

1192
01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:28,280
Speaker 1: I'm satisfied.

1193
01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 2: When you decide, when you officially decide to call it

1194
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 2: a career in five years, just Cam Newton, Cam Newton

1195
01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:38,880
Speaker 2: get that call, Does he get that knocked on the

1196
01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:43,440
Speaker 2: door and say welcome to football Heaven? Which is Cam?

1197
01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:45,080
Speaker 2: No higher the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

1198
01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:52,640
Speaker 3: Honestly though, I wouldn't care, and not to disrespect the

1199
01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:55,200
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame and the people who are in it.

1200
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:59,200
Speaker 3: My impact was felt, and that's all I wanted from

1201
01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:02,880
Speaker 3: a kid from College Park, Georgia by way of Atlanta,

1202
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 3: to have the impact that I had where globally I

1203
01:05:08,920 --> 01:05:11,080
Speaker 3: go anywhere and people say, man, he looked.

1204
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:14,480
Speaker 1: Like, man, what's the football.

1205
01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:20,640
Speaker 3: That we played in a masked sport? To be recognized

1206
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:24,600
Speaker 3: without your helmet on, that tells you something that you

1207
01:05:24,640 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 3: did something right.

1208
01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:27,840
Speaker 1: And let this be said too.

1209
01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:33,160
Speaker 3: I never had an incident with domestic violence. I never

1210
01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:38,240
Speaker 3: had a a a run in with the law. I

1211
01:05:38,320 --> 01:05:43,640
Speaker 3: never had anything conduct detrimental where people would assumed.

1212
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:45,080
Speaker 1: That, oh, man, he's a head case.

1213
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:48,400
Speaker 3: Right, that's your personal opinion. Go back and talk to

1214
01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:51,560
Speaker 3: Ron Rivera. Go back and talk to Matt rue. Go

1215
01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:55,120
Speaker 3: back and talk to Bill Belichick. Talk to Greg Olson,

1216
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,920
Speaker 3: talk to Thomas Davis. Talk to these people who shared

1217
01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:02,000
Speaker 3: the locker room with me, rest in peace, talk to

1218
01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:07,360
Speaker 3: Jerry Richardson. These people will tell you who Cam Newton

1219
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:10,520
Speaker 3: really is. A lot of people who don't like Cam Newton.

1220
01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,560
Speaker 3: It's only subjective to what you may think. And I'm

1221
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:16,360
Speaker 3: fine with being able to say I'm not for you,

1222
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 3: and I think with me being so comfortable in my skin,

1223
01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:23,520
Speaker 3: that's what rubs people the wrong way.

1224
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 1: So for me, I.

1225
01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:35,760
Speaker 3: Can get the validation from people around when they appreciate

1226
01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:39,200
Speaker 3: what I've done, and that's my nod to them, saying

1227
01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:42,400
Speaker 3: well done. And that's what I can go to sleep

1228
01:06:42,440 --> 01:06:45,760
Speaker 3: at every single night. Whether my daughters or my sons

1229
01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:48,760
Speaker 3: remember me playing football or not, I have the ability

1230
01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:51,960
Speaker 3: to raise them to be honorable kings and queens the

1231
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:53,960
Speaker 3: same way that my father and my mother did for

1232
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 3: me and my grandmother.

1233
01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:58,960
Speaker 2: Last thing, the car accident when you was in Carolina.

1234
01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,160
Speaker 2: Remember that? Do you remember that morning?

1235
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:10,840
Speaker 1: Yeah? I do. It was on off day. It was

1236
01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:14,960
Speaker 1: it was we had a victory Monday, and.

1237
01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:20,680
Speaker 3: At the truck that I was driving was elevated.

1238
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:25,040
Speaker 1: Like hot, too hot, but you know, young and like

1239
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:25,880
Speaker 1: I wanted to stay.

1240
01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:29,920
Speaker 3: That was me being around the Texas, being around the

1241
01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:34,840
Speaker 3: Alabama like them country boys had them elevated trucks and

1242
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:39,880
Speaker 3: I wanted to get one. And the intersection that it

1243
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:45,040
Speaker 3: was at, I remember the car coming out, then it stopped.

1244
01:07:45,040 --> 01:07:49,800
Speaker 3: Then I stopped or slowed down. Then I sped up

1245
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 3: and he sped up too. I remember. I thought I

1246
01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:56,479
Speaker 3: passed him, and I was trying to blow the horn,

1247
01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:59,880
Speaker 3: like what And as I'm blowing the horn, he clipped

1248
01:07:59,880 --> 01:08:03,440
Speaker 3: my back left will and.

1249
01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:04,479
Speaker 1: It flipped over.

1250
01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 3: And as I'm flipping I'm saying to myself, oh my God,

1251
01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:14,440
Speaker 3: not like this not like this. And I was on

1252
01:08:14,480 --> 01:08:18,560
Speaker 3: the phone with my mom. Not like this, No, no,

1253
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:22,640
Speaker 3: not like this, not like this. And when I got out,

1254
01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 3: I didn't realize how close off the edge of the

1255
01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:32,639
Speaker 3: bridge it was. Right, So when they say I had

1256
01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:40,120
Speaker 3: a praying grandmother, a praying mother, man, that could have

1257
01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:42,640
Speaker 3: been that. You don't know the time, the hour of

1258
01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:48,760
Speaker 3: the day. So don't let smoking a cigar derail you

1259
01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:52,559
Speaker 3: from understanding that I'm a man of God, God fearing

1260
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:57,599
Speaker 3: I know where my favorite come from. I'm humbled by

1261
01:08:57,640 --> 01:09:01,960
Speaker 3: the fact that God has given me the opportunity to

1262
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:07,599
Speaker 3: say that I owe my life to him. I don't

1263
01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:13,400
Speaker 3: fear nothing outside of God. And that day was a

1264
01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,559
Speaker 3: perfect example of I was on top of the world.

1265
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:19,160
Speaker 1: My father would always say, son, be careful.

1266
01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:21,439
Speaker 3: One day you could be on top of the world,

1267
01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:23,200
Speaker 3: and the next day the world can be on top

1268
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:27,519
Speaker 3: of you. Do right by people, And no matter what

1269
01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:30,680
Speaker 3: you say about cam Newton, you can never find a

1270
01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:35,320
Speaker 3: person that I did wrong. And that's what resonates to

1271
01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:39,200
Speaker 3: me the most, because there's times in my life similar

1272
01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:41,200
Speaker 3: to that car accident. Well, I ain't supposed to be here,

1273
01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,479
Speaker 3: they thought, after Florida, They'll never hear from me again.

1274
01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:48,040
Speaker 3: It was so many transfers that left right and.

1275
01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:50,040
Speaker 1: You never heard from them. Hear from them.

1276
01:09:50,160 --> 01:09:53,360
Speaker 3: But when I came back that my story and my

1277
01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:58,439
Speaker 3: and everything that I went through, Why me? I would

1278
01:09:58,439 --> 01:10:00,200
Speaker 3: always ask my I saf man, how am I is

1279
01:10:00,240 --> 01:10:00,960
Speaker 3: getting caught?

1280
01:10:00,960 --> 01:10:01,160
Speaker 1: Man?

1281
01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:06,000
Speaker 3: Oh son, you ain't regular. He's a conversation. This is

1282
01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:09,719
Speaker 3: a perfect father son story.

1283
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:11,080
Speaker 1: Man.

1284
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:15,080
Speaker 3: I was afraid of my dad. The only thing that

1285
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:18,519
Speaker 3: brought us closer was me in Juco. While I was

1286
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:20,720
Speaker 3: in for a man, I didn't call my Damnit.

1287
01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:25,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna cut your phone off. You better answer. That

1288
01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 1: was the first time I was out. I was a bird.

1289
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:28,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I was gone.

1290
01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,040
Speaker 1: Man, you can bring girls in the doors. It ain't

1291
01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:35,439
Speaker 1: nobody got curfew, oh man. But that wasn't the calling

1292
01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:37,599
Speaker 1: that I had. It was.

1293
01:10:37,760 --> 01:10:40,599
Speaker 3: That's why I'm able to resonate with my kids and say, son,

1294
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:42,840
Speaker 3: it's all right, tell me like what's going on. It

1295
01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:46,040
Speaker 3: may be tough, loving, but all medicine ain't sweet either.

1296
01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:51,880
Speaker 3: So as I'm living these these situations, and I'm saying

1297
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:55,200
Speaker 3: to myself and let me be the example of hope.

1298
01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:57,920
Speaker 3: So I can't stop going out to seven on seven.

1299
01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:03,080
Speaker 3: I can't stop speak in my mind because every time

1300
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 3: I want to, there's a person that I'm giving hope

1301
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:10,439
Speaker 3: to that I may not ever meet, but they are

1302
01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:13,040
Speaker 3: able to say, Man, Cam, I resonate with Cam. He'

1303
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:15,240
Speaker 3: my kind and that's not a black thing, that's not

1304
01:11:15,280 --> 01:11:19,880
Speaker 3: a white thing, that's an all mankind thing. I like him.

1305
01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:22,880
Speaker 1: Are you surprised Coach Belichick doesn't have a job. No,

1306
01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:29,479
Speaker 1: it's because he don't want a job, Like Bruh.

1307
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,639
Speaker 2: What makes him special? You had an opportunity to spend

1308
01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:34,680
Speaker 2: a one year with him and it was only a year. Well,

1309
01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:36,160
Speaker 2: what makes coach Belichick special?

1310
01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:39,120
Speaker 1: I remember when Robert Kraft called me.

1311
01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:46,240
Speaker 3: And it was something that was just it penetrated my

1312
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:47,439
Speaker 3: my my core.

1313
01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:51,960
Speaker 1: It was like yo, like damn. He was like Cam.

1314
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:55,840
Speaker 3: In this organization, you ain't gonna find an organization that's

1315
01:11:55,880 --> 01:12:00,080
Speaker 3: pulling in the same direction like the New England Patriots.

1316
01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:03,400
Speaker 1: Everything is aligned to winning.

1317
01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:08,120
Speaker 3: When I went to spend my time at in New England,

1318
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 3: I was blown away by the amount.

1319
01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:14,920
Speaker 1: Of details that they focused on.

1320
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:21,080
Speaker 3: He taught the game of football, not just to the offense,

1321
01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:25,200
Speaker 3: not just to the defense, special teams included. He taught

1322
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:29,800
Speaker 3: the game of football to everybody. Oftentimes, that pencil ain't

1323
01:12:29,880 --> 01:12:34,360
Speaker 3: just a fashion statement. He got the pencil, iPad, notepad,

1324
01:12:34,600 --> 01:12:38,160
Speaker 3: taking notes while he's working out, taking notes, watching film,

1325
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:43,160
Speaker 3: certain things, and he teaches the game. Coaches oftentimes forget

1326
01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:46,960
Speaker 3: that being a great coach is also being a great teacher.

1327
01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:49,679
Speaker 1: You have to understand talking to Cam.

1328
01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:53,200
Speaker 3: You gotta change the tone or dialect when you're talking

1329
01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:55,800
Speaker 3: to a Shannon Sharp, when you're talking to a Cho Sinko,

1330
01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:59,800
Speaker 3: Odell Beckham, a Patrick Mahomes of Tom Brady, the great ones. No,

1331
01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:03,640
Speaker 3: how to weave in and weave out and get the

1332
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 3: message across.

1333
01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:11,680
Speaker 1: That's what Bill Belichick has done improven. He's so.

1334
01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:18,320
Speaker 3: Intentional that it ain't like he riding off in the sunset,

1335
01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:20,240
Speaker 3: because that's what he want to do. If Bill Belichick

1336
01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:25,360
Speaker 3: wanted a job, he got that name, Manny Sanders Belichick.

1337
01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:29,400
Speaker 3: That man, if he wanted to be higher somewhere, he

1338
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:33,480
Speaker 3: would have been there. Me knowing what I know about him,

1339
01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:34,479
Speaker 3: he probably don't want it.

1340
01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:38,400
Speaker 1: What does he have to prove? And when you at

1341
01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:41,920
Speaker 1: peace like that, you can gracefully Bob.

1342
01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:45,479
Speaker 2: I think he wants that shoe little record all the time,

1343
01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:47,040
Speaker 2: winning his coach in NFL history.

1344
01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:54,679
Speaker 3: He's so close, but some records, out of respect should

1345
01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:55,400
Speaker 3: never be broken.

1346
01:13:56,479 --> 01:13:58,040
Speaker 1: Think about Barry Sanders.

1347
01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 3: When he was so close to Malti Payton said, Nah,

1348
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:04,519
Speaker 3: Emmitt Smith the same way, what's the heat?

1349
01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:05,000
Speaker 1: See?

1350
01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:07,880
Speaker 2: I think Barry was like what you said, Kickley, if

1351
01:14:07,880 --> 01:14:09,960
Speaker 2: he thought Detroit could give him an opportunity to win.

1352
01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:12,719
Speaker 2: They had started trading pieces, getting rid of pieces around

1353
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:15,960
Speaker 2: him that he could the Glovers and the low Browns

1354
01:14:15,960 --> 01:14:18,479
Speaker 2: and all them guys that started to leave. He's like, man, y'all,

1355
01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:19,439
Speaker 2: ain't got no room for me.

1356
01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:24,920
Speaker 3: But sometimes people you got to ask yourself too, what's

1357
01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:29,559
Speaker 3: your carrot? There is a comical analogy where the mule

1358
01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:34,880
Speaker 3: is chasing the carrot in high school. Your carrit is

1359
01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:36,880
Speaker 3: I want to go D one. I want to go

1360
01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:37,400
Speaker 3: to college.

1361
01:14:37,760 --> 01:14:40,360
Speaker 1: That's your carre. You bite that boom when you get

1362
01:14:40,400 --> 01:14:44,240
Speaker 1: to college. That carried is NFL. I got to go

1363
01:14:44,280 --> 01:14:45,000
Speaker 1: to the league.

1364
01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:47,840
Speaker 3: When you bite that is now, Oh, I want to

1365
01:14:48,120 --> 01:14:50,639
Speaker 3: go and be a household name a Pro Bowl.

1366
01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:51,680
Speaker 1: I want to be an All Pro.

1367
01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,839
Speaker 3: That's your care when you got all these different things,

1368
01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:55,479
Speaker 3: a Super Bowl?

1369
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:59,080
Speaker 1: Like, what else is your carrot? And you dictate that

1370
01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:00,240
Speaker 1: not somebody us.

1371
01:15:01,160 --> 01:15:04,400
Speaker 3: And I think even for me, I don't have nothing

1372
01:15:04,400 --> 01:15:06,200
Speaker 3: to prove I'm at peace.

1373
01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:07,720
Speaker 1: And that's if you're at peace with that.

1374
01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:11,479
Speaker 2: No, you got another cart. You're on this camera side now.

1375
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:13,760
Speaker 2: Oh for sure you want to be great a at

1376
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:17,040
Speaker 2: just like you were the football. Oh man, listen, it

1377
01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:19,600
Speaker 2: drives you. If you're probably hear the thing. This is

1378
01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:21,719
Speaker 2: what And I tell people I want to be better

1379
01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:25,200
Speaker 2: at this because this isn't my natural football with God

1380
01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:27,640
Speaker 2: gave me the ability to be able to run and

1381
01:15:27,680 --> 01:15:29,880
Speaker 2: to jump and to catch a football, so I didn't

1382
01:15:29,920 --> 01:15:32,000
Speaker 2: really have to work that much. I mean, I trained

1383
01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:34,040
Speaker 2: and it got good at it, but this is not

1384
01:15:34,160 --> 01:15:37,040
Speaker 2: something that that I was.

1385
01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:39,439
Speaker 1: Naturally good at. But I'm working.

1386
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:43,240
Speaker 3: It's the challenge, right And I think for me to

1387
01:15:43,320 --> 01:15:48,639
Speaker 3: be independently owned, nobody's telling me what I should produce

1388
01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:55,599
Speaker 3: and for it to consistently catch the eye of people

1389
01:15:55,800 --> 01:16:00,439
Speaker 3: to make it go viral, that's my card. And it's

1390
01:16:00,479 --> 01:16:03,639
Speaker 3: doing it in an intent to impact. It's not doing

1391
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:06,080
Speaker 3: it in an intent to shame. So when I do

1392
01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:10,000
Speaker 3: say game changer and the game manager, it was the

1393
