I know we've been talking about football spring ball, 3 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: but coming to the University of Tennessee, we had to 4 00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: get on the juggernaut. We had to get on Coach 5 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:16,439 Speaker 1: Vitello Tony Tonytel, I feel like this most Italian name ever. Yeah, yeah, 6 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,799 Speaker 1: young gun. I mean, look at he's handsome. Before we 7 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: get into before we sit here and melting our couches. 8 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,799 Speaker 1: This thing is brought to you by the Chevy Silverado, 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: the hardest working truck on the planet, Dependable, durable, just 10 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: like the people who drive them. You and Coach v uh, 11 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: But we had to get the baseball guys on. You 12 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: guys are crushing it. I hate that you guys just 13 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: lost one last night because you guys are on an 14 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: eleven game win streak. You're thirty and. 15 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 2: Two now, is that thirty one and two? 16 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: Thirty one and two? And Jack was Jack is a 17 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: huge Tennessee guy. Yeah. And everybody went to school here, yeah, 18 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: and everybody's been talking about Tennessee baseball. And I'm on 19 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: my phone last night, late at night scroll and seeing 20 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: all your guys' highlights and everything else. And Coach Eckler's 21 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: giving me a background on you guys. You guys are 22 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: kind of like the Detroit Pistons, the bad boys of 23 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 1: SEC baseball, college baseball. Would you agree, Yeah, would you 24 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: agree with that? Is that fair to say? Is that 25 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: a good assessment? 26 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 3: I mean, I kind of like that now at this age. 27 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 3: I grew up My old man's from Chicago, so I 28 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 3: grew up a Bulls fan, and I hated the Pistons. 29 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 3: But I think if you're a competitor, that's kind of 30 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 3: the way it should be. You should love the guy 31 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 3: if he's on your team, or you should love your 32 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,839 Speaker 3: team if they're yours. And then you want to be hated. 33 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 3: If you know, if you walk into an opponent's building, 34 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 3: you don't want them to like you because that means 35 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:25,960 Speaker 3: if they're thinking easy victory. 36 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 37 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, but baseball in a lot of ways, Like you 38 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 2: don't see guys hitting grand slams and going halfway to 39 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,759 Speaker 2: first base throwing that ship in the air like it's 40 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 2: fucking nothing like you did you walk into the team 41 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 2: meeting room and dany and go, hey, here's a deal. 42 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 2: Fuck these guys, all of them? 43 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 3: Not no, No, I mean I do think we've got 44 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 3: a certain attitude about us, but you have to in 45 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 3: order to survive in our league. But sorry, any Power 46 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 3: five league. No, But then we had a non Power 47 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 3: five team put it on us last night, so no. 48 00:01:58,960 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: Again. 49 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 3: At the end of the day, it's all about competition 50 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 3: and you got to be who you are. And and 51 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 3: that guy in particular you're speaking of is one of 52 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 3: our team leaders, and he's just very unique. He's he's 53 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 3: a gentleman off the field, and he's an assassin on 54 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 3: the field. And sometimes I do my best to control them, 55 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 3: but sometimes I can't. 56 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 2: What's his name, Yes, Drew Gilbert. 57 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 3: He's a fan fan favorite, and again, anyone that's got 58 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 3: to know him as a person would love him. 59 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 2: But immediately when we go into another place. 60 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 3: We're in Oxford, Mississippi recently, and it took their fans 61 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 3: about two outs in the first inning and he was 62 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,839 Speaker 3: just on deck to understand that he's not the one 63 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: to like. But you know, our guys do got a 64 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 3: little bit of way about him that you know, again, 65 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 3: if you're cheering for us, I think you enjoy and 66 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 3: if not, you may question it. But I don't think 67 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,839 Speaker 3: anyone ever goes over the line to do something disrespectful 68 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 3: to the opponent. It's just in baseball, you got to 69 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: be a personality. If you look at like the most 70 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 3: fun teams since we've been alive, like the Phillies back 71 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: in the John Crook era, Darren Dalton and those guys, 72 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 3: and the Red Sox when Malar was on their team, 73 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 3: it's it's long days as a baseball player. You got 74 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 3: to have some stuff going on in the locker room 75 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 3: to bring you together and also keep you entertained or 76 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 3: in all those all those hours. 77 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 2: So this is your fifth season with the volunteers. Is 78 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: this like something that's kind of built over time or 79 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 2: is it for whatever reason this year? No, it's kind 80 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: of just you guys have become like the bad boys 81 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 2: of the SEC. No. 82 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 3: I think last year without last year's team, this year's 83 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 3: team is not having the success they are. And then 84 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 3: if you go back to our first year, our pitching 85 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 3: coach and I were joking about how we're just starving 86 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 3: for any win possible, and that's how we were handling 87 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 3: our pitching was just one day at a time, we 88 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 3: just need as many wins. So it's been you know, 89 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 3: without going into the whole long story, it's been a 90 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 3: gradual deal. And I'll tell you what, when the fans 91 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 3: got on board, and you know how crazy our fans are, 92 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 3: that's what kind of helped catapult this whole thing. 93 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: I think what's cool too, is like you guys, it's 94 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: clear about your gut, you guys having fun it. Like 95 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 1: you said, if you're an outsider and you don't cheer 96 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: for the for Tennessee, you might question it or whatever. 97 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: But baseball for the most part, is a very uniformed, 98 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: buttoned up sport. And know that you have a team 99 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: like you do having the fun and bringing out their 100 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: personalities and having their unique style about them. And then 101 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: you have a young coach like yourself who kind of 102 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: embraces it. The whole my Concho story, the whole my 103 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: Concho bit is hilarious. Is that something you're conscious of 104 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: You kind of just let it fly and tell the boys, like, hey, 105 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: we're going out here to have fun. Who gives a 106 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: shit like the opinions that are out there about the 107 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: sport of baseball. It's kind of like you guys are 108 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: bringing a flavor to the game. 109 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. 110 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 3: I think that's something you try and set the tone 111 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 3: from day one and manage what you think your culture's 112 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 3: kind of overused word, but what your style or brand 113 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 3: name is going to be. And when we first got here, 114 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 3: Tennessee's had great players for quite a while. I mean 115 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 3: Nixon Zel was a second pick in the draft before 116 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: we got here. I mean, they've had talent, but they 117 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 3: hadn't had kind of a flavor that Arkansas, where I 118 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 3: came from, you could stereotype their baseball team. And again 119 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 3: we talked about Mississippi or Vanderbilt. And now I think 120 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 3: we've kind of created our own brand name. And along 121 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 3: the way, I've kind of felt like we introduced some 122 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 3: ideas to them. They've run with it, and now we 123 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 3: just got to make sure that fired unburned too bright. 124 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 3: Sometimes those boys get a little out of control, and 125 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 3: again they're there is a line to walk. What's what's 126 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 3: the right way to do it? And what's not My 127 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 3: question is why is they're allowed to walk? Why not 128 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 3: just ride this thing in the sunset? You know what 129 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 3: I'm saying, Grab the chariots, be like charesty, you go 130 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 3: to the sun sure, well you know we're on uh, 131 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 3: we're televised here and you fellas are popular, so you 132 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 3: got to make sure you don't say the wrong thing 133 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 3: too many times. But no, it's it's the in between 134 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 3: the lines. To be fair what you're saying. There are 135 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 3: no rules, so I know in baseball, yeah, I mean 136 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 3: there's different versions in football and baseball. If somebody bunts 137 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 3: when they're winning up by six runs, or someone throws inside, 138 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 3: I mean, where where's the rules? It's you're between the 139 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 3: lines and it's killer be killed. And then at the 140 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 3: end of the day, kind of like UFC guys do 141 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 3: when they dab each other up, it's like, how the 142 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 3: hell are they doing? They just try to kill each other, 143 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 3: but it's a mutual respect for you know, hey, what 144 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 3: just went on here? There was something pure there and 145 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 3: almost kind of primal that we are getting, you know, 146 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: getting into it and now. 147 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: It's over with. 148 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 2: When you say, like, Bunny, when you're up six round 149 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 2: of six runs, like, what are some of the like 150 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 2: unspoken rules of baseball? As you just don't do that? 151 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 2: Maybe maybe you guys do. 152 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what's interesting. You know, Like you said, why 153 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 3: is there a line that they're unwritten? So there is 154 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 3: no actual book, So it's it's kind. 155 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: Of a gentleman's game. 156 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: Part. 157 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's kind of all up to perception. And you know, 158 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 3: I don't think you know, you want to be sending 159 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,239 Speaker 3: guys from second base on a borderline call to score 160 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 3: if you're already up ten twelve runs. I think it's 161 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 3: just you know, not putting to the pedal of the 162 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 3: metal too much if it's. 163 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: You know, a big league blower team. 164 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 3: But you know, otherwise, you know, it's like Batista hits 165 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 3: that homer against the Rangers and throws his bats. If 166 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: you don't want him to throw his bat, then don't 167 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 3: give up a home run, you know, if you had 168 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 3: to ball that far in that situation. To me, you 169 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 3: can do whatever you want. And if you're the opponent 170 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 3: you don't like it, then do something about it. 171 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 2: Well, they do do something about it the next time 172 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 2: he's up at bat. Next time you guys play music, 173 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 2: catches a little chin music one in the ribs real quick. 174 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 2: When is the time do you in baseball? Is it 175 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 2: like that in college baseball? Do you guys kind of 176 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: give them the hey, this dude's been talking. 177 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 3: No, No, it really doesn't go on at our level. 178 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 3: I mean I saw one of our juco commits. I 179 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 3: went down and watched him and he actually hit a 180 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,119 Speaker 3: kid in the helmet and the first base coach yelled, 181 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 3: what the I think. 182 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: I can say, Yeah, what the fuck are you doing? 183 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 3: And he basically stormed onto the field, and you know, 184 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 3: the kid just had one get away. I mean, these guys, 185 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 3: that's just not a part of our game as much now. 186 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 3: I think in the big leagues maybe a little bit. 187 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 3: You saw Lindor get hit in the head, but I 188 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 3: really don't feel like there was intent there. There's too 189 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 3: much money involved. Plus nowadays, instead of like George brutt 190 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 3: Brett playing for the for the Royals his whole career, 191 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 3: you might get traded the next day and be on 192 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 3: that guy's team that you just threw at. So, you know, 193 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 3: it's wild, like the trades are crazier like in football. 194 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 3: I don't know when the trades are, but when football 195 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 3: week eight, by week eight, you can't trade anybody anymore. 196 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 2: How's it working baseball? 197 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 3: No, it's deeper into the year in baseball. And two, 198 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 3: when you come up through the minor leagues, you might 199 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 3: have played with all these guys because there's a bunch 200 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 3: of trades that may go on throughout a guy's career, 201 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 3: just trying to make it up, you know, through the 202 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 3: ranks and then to now all these guys like Bryce Harper. 203 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 3: First time I ever saw him was at the Area 204 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 3: Code games. It's where all the best players go. Well, 205 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 3: they all become buddies, and especially on social media now too, 206 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 3: so as intense and competitive is as much money as 207 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 3: there is out there. I think at the end of 208 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 3: the day, all these guys are kind of buddies. I mean, 209 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 3: Drew Gilbert again, maybe the most hated or the villain 210 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 3: leader of our team. He yeah, trust me, you would. 211 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 3: But he played on Team USA. So there's the best 212 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 3: player from Florida and the best player from Georgia, and 213 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 3: they all get to know him and they all like him. 214 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: You know. 215 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 1: The my concho bit was that something that was premeditated? 216 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: Is did you just watch Talladega Knights recently? No? Or 217 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: was that just off the top end you're having fun? 218 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 3: No, I need to watch Talladega Knights but soon. But 219 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 3: oh you haven't seen twdy I've seen actually, just I 220 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 3: feel it's proper to visualize or see that every month 221 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 3: or so, you know, yeah, yeah, but those in game interviews, 222 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 3: like I can't believe like a guy like Saban, like 223 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 3: the halftime interview or right before kickoff. But I know 224 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 3: they have to do it. But it's cool when you're 225 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 3: watching on TV. But when you have to do it 226 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 3: in the dugout and like your guys are hitting or 227 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: pitching it, it's pretty it's distracting. And so I had 228 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 3: a lot of emotions boiling in my body and that 229 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: was just kind of what came out. I say a 230 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 3: lot of dumb things sometimes because you got the Italian 231 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 3: temper going. 232 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: You got that. You got that just I'm Italian. You 233 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: know I got anger issues. 234 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's it's a good it's a good alibi. 235 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 3: But no, nothing premeditated. 236 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: Just question. 237 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 3: And Chris Burke, who was a legendary player here, works 238 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 3: for ESPN. He was the one conducting the interview, and 239 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 3: I just have a level of comfort with him. So 240 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 3: it's kind of like us sitting here average talking. 241 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I got it.

It was my 507 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 3: first year coach when I was young, and he walked 508 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 3: by me at the field and I'm supposed to be 509 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 3: the coach coach fight Tello and he's the recruit and 510 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 3: he smacked me on the ass. 511 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 2: It's like, what's up, coach, b oh yeah, so hey, 512 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 2: imagine having that kind of confidence with the coach I know, dude. 513 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 2: So we passed on Nick Schmidt because of that, or 514 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 2: I did. 515 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 3: He was the first but well just the whole party 516 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 3: of what he was a first rounder, but I was 517 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 3: I was accurate in my read. He went to Arkansas 518 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 3: and a guy named Dave Jornan was a pitching coach 519 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 3: and he had to kind of heart to heart with 520 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 3: him and basically kind of saved the kid's soul a 521 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:50,479 Speaker 3: little like. 522 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 2: I don't think he became you know where. 523 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 3: He never had another beer or anything, but really kind 524 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,199 Speaker 3: of got more. So I was kind of accurate in 525 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 3: my read, and he went to the right place a 526 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 3: lot of times. With the recruiting, it's about ending up 527 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 3: with the spot that was meant for you to be at, 528 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 3: not necessarily the best place in the world. 529 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: Whatever helps you sleep for missing on that first round 530 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: the first round. 531 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 2: He ain't the only one, So yeah, no doubt, that's 532 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 2: a wild deal. As far as atmosphere goes, I've been 533 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 2: I've only been a one college baseball game that was 534 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 2: an LSU phenomenal time. I think I'm a big LSU 535 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 2: fan because of that. What's the atmosphere like here if 536 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 2: stands packed. 537 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 3: But then after it's bananas. I mean, it's a hornet's 538 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 3: nest over there. I think a lot of it has 539 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 3: to do with our field. You see where we're at. 540 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 3: We're kind of landlocked, so everything's real close and quaint 541 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 3: if you want to call it that. And then our 542 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 3: fan base, you can stereotype. LSU's fan base is gonna 543 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 3: tailgate and they're gonna do this and that, and they're 544 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 3: gonna have crawfish. 545 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, Occajuns do it a little different. They have the 546 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 2: open container law. They're allowed to do whatever they want. Yeah, 547 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 2: for sure. 548 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 3: And I think each team in our league has phenomenal fans, 549 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 3: but they're all again, you could kind of describe them 550 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 3: in four or five words and be fairly accurate. And 551 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 3: our fans are just rambunctious, maybe more than anybody in 552 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 3: the league. I mean, you guys were talking about the 553 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 3: game against Mississippi. 554 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: Did you love that? You're not you're not a football coach. 555 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: You can kind of he Yes, he's got to tew 556 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: the line a little bit more. Are you watching your life? 557 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 2: You're free to say whatever you want. Okay, Okay, I'm. 558 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 3: Gonna go ahead, let it rip the most deadly words 559 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 3: and yes. 560 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 2: Hey, we won't tell. 561 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 3: You'll just be canceled in the morning. Yeah, okay, couple. 562 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 3: Here's what I was thinking when you guys talked about 563 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 3: it with coach I is I don't think anyone in 564 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 3: the world wants objects thrown at another individual because you 565 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 3: never know what crazy thing could happen. But you could 566 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 3: see where the fans frustration came from if you were watching. 567 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 3: So they acted, you know, a little bit out of line, 568 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 3: or they acted out of line bottom line. Here's what 569 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 3: I'll say about ball fans if the if the referees 570 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 3: at any point, And again I don't coach football. 571 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 2: I don't know who those guys were, so you can't. 572 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: Sue me or that's right, this is clean in the sponsor. 573 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, all I had to say was the next thing 574 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 3: that's thrown on this field were penalized in Tennessee fifteen 575 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 3: yards and no one would have moved an inch. 576 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 2: That's how our fans are. Yeah, but what about Mississippi 577 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 2: fans that might be there'd be like, oh, easy, that's. 578 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: That is that's a good point, that's true. 579 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 3: But I think they're gonna get a haymaker thrown to 580 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 3: the jaw off if they throw something and they next volunteer. 581 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: Fans really like that, Hey, that's that Italian. 582 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 2: Baseball bat to the knees, horse head in their bed 583 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 2: type mentality. You know what I'm saying. That was my 584 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 2: take on it. 585 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,880 Speaker 3: I mean, there's always a counter argument, but that would 586 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 3: have been my perfect solution to call me down our 587 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 3: fans because they're rowdy, but they don't they they don't 588 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 3: want to hurt our team. 589 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 2: I can tell you that.

But really, I 625 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 3: mean there's other there's other towns that could throw out arguments. 626 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 3: Starkville probably has the second or the first, you know, 627 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 3: nicest stadium, and then Oxford where we just played. I mean, 628 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,199 Speaker 3: it's not normal to go in there and win and 629 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 3: Lane Kiffin comes and throws out the golf. 630 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 1: Ball and they're they're going crazy. 631 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think he took some heat for that, 632 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 3: but I think it was all in good fun, right 633 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 3: via social media, because he's not scared, and which I will. 634 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: You gotta respect. I respect that. 635 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 3: It's one of the reasons he's a good coach. I mean, 636 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 3: you know, he's on the edge at all times, and 637 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 3: I guess you're not. You're taking up too much space? 638 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: Should we do the Duke Cannon question of the day? 639 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 1: Home run coat? 640 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 2: What is okay? 641 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: So? 642 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 2: What is the home run coat? 643 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: Fan?

It's coming from Jack. Coach. Home run cove. Yeah, 646 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: a coat coat? 647 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 3: Well, last year if the guys, you know, it all 648 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 3: started with the Rangers. I think with Josh Hamplton's on 649 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 3: our team. If they hit a double, they would kind 650 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 3: of do a sign. And now, all of a sudden, 651 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 3: I don't think it was a gang sign. 652 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 2: It was more of just a gesture. 653 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 3: And uh ever since then, if you hit a double, 654 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 3: you got to do something, and then it turned into 655 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 3: Batista's you know, batflip, and now everyone's got to do something. 656 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: They had a home run. 657 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 3: It seems like so our guys came up with a 658 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 3: hat they would wear, which became really popular.
