Me, 49 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: it's quite a projection when you're projecting, you know, twenty 50 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: year old, twenty two year old to the NFL. I 51 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,799 Speaker 1: can't imagine trying to project when they start recruiting these kids, 52 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: sixteen year old kids, and and how and how recruiting 53 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: has has changed over the past few years, just for 54 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: social media and and that that. I'm sure he's got 55 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: a lot of in depth knowledge about the evolvement of 56 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: recruiting and and how it's just booming. It's uh with 57 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: all the different camps. Of course, Buck he's involved within 58 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: him as well, so that that'll be fun with Bob. 59 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: One thing real quick before we get him on Big 60 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: News today, was Bob Stoops stepping down, and I really 61 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 1: I guess retiring, not resigning UM from the University of Oklahoma. 62 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley's gonna take over him. I believe he's like 63 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 1: thirty three years old. Offensive mind, so big big shake 64 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: up there in the college football world. I've always heard 65 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: Stoop's name kicked around a bunch with NFL jobs, and 66 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: he's turned down and hasn't shown much interest. But I wonder, 67 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: now he's fifty six years old, maybe takes a year 68 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: or two off and kind of recharges a batter. Reason. 69 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if if he decided to get 70 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: back into coaching, if it wasn't at the NFL level 71 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: instead of the college level, No doubt about it. I 72 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: think he's he's got a lot of years left. Like 73 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: he said, he's in his mid fifties. UM. Normally don't 74 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 1: see a guy stepped down that early. Uh, it's kind 75 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: of kind of interesting to see over the next couple 76 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: of days if there's there's a backstory to that coming 77 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: out of Norman, because it is, it is way too 78 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: really for him. He's got I was I was driving, 79 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: I listened to a serious eighty four the College Channel, 80 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: a lot when I'm driving into water to get about 81 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: a month or so ago, maybe even longer. I know 82 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: one of them on there had mentioned that Stoops had 83 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: bought a house in Chicago. UM, and that kind of 84 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: was like, interesting, that's weird, and he just bought a 85 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: house in Chicago. So the wheel started turning. Yeah, so 86 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, maybe this has been in the 87 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: works for a while, and um, at this point in time, 88 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, if you wanted to hand the thing off 89 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: to your guy and Lincoln Riley, there's no time for 90 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: them to go through an entire sturch. So it's a 91 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: it's a nice did a solid for Lincoln Riley in 92 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: my opinion, with timing and the whole deal. They exactly 93 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: that that's the only way to get it to to 94 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: guarantee a handoff to your guys is the middle of Gyne, 95 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: Like what what what? What is Oklahoma supposed to do? 96 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 1: But but but they did say, hey, no one term 97 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: tag he's the guy U So it'll be fun to 98 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: watch what they do. They're at Oklahoma. They've kind of 99 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: owned the Big twelve. I think he's won ten of 100 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: the twenty championships since he's been there. Under speaking of championships. 101 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 1: Fun staff that's rolling around? Only four active head coaches 102 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: now left? Uh?

No, this this has just been 104 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: flying around on Twitter, so I can't blast this up. 105 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: I think KNT Kid probably did blast this out. But 106 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 1: it's Saban Meyer. I think Saban's got five me or 107 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: four and Jimbo and Dabbo with the great That's that's wild.

Nine years with the Browns, although I 115 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: would imagine it felt like ninety five years with the 116 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: Browns before you got the Tennessee in ten How long 117 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: ago does that seem?

Then 149 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: also the other big part of it was the background 150 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: information that would get so that would help kind of 151 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: form what's your thoughts are on when that players you 152 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: went in and then obviously really in the fall, which 153 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: has happened quite a bit, you might have a kid 154 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: pop up it you know MCNEI state that nobody knew 155 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: about and that was my job to go in and 156 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: get all the information to make sure all the team's 157 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: got that. So I did that for a full year 158 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: before in an area and enjoining new in Cleveland. Yeah 159 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: then you then you then you put in seven long 160 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: years uh, part of that staff they're you know, grinding 161 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: a way. How was it the challenge? Look, I was 162 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: there for two years. We had the one year we 163 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: were ten and six, The next year I believe was 164 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: four and twelve, and then I was gone. But the uh, 165 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: just the challenge of being away from the team, being 166 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: on the road when when the team is struggling. I've 167 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: tried to explain to a lot of people, you know, 168 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: the listen to this, how it can be a thankless job. 169 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: But man, it's even it is even harder when the 170 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: team is struggling. I imagine you had as I did 171 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: that second year. There's some long, lonely nights and hotel 172 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: rooms across the country there is, and it's always the 173 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: worst going into a school on Monday or Tuesday and 174 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: awful loss, you know, and you're with scout. You're in 175 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: a room with scouts at all. One unfortunately happened a 176 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: lot DJ and that was part of it, but you 177 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: know it was really you are disconnected, and that's something 178 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: that's that's part of the job that I don't think 179 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: people you know, to hear the NFL and and you're 180 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: a scout. It's a great job. Don't get me wrong. 181 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: I enjoyed it, but it is. Uh. You're out on 182 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: your own a lot, you know, you eat a lot 183 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: of meals alone. Um, you travel alone. I watched you know, 184 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: the games and those years I was there in a 185 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: b W Three's or somewhere you know, or at David 186 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: Buck because or somewhere wasn't that you know, I wasn't 187 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: at those games. And trust me, some some days I 188 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: was glad I wasn't. But you know, that's the part 189 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: of the job that really for what I do now, 190 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: I really enjoy now being connected to a team. And 191 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: that's really one of the big reasons I was looking 192 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: to to do what I'm doing now is just have 193 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: those relationships. You're in an office, you're around a team, 194 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: you're around kids. You know that that's such a contrast 195 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: for what I did for nine years. But it's been 196 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: a it's been a nice welcome surprise. I want to 197 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: get to Tennessee and what you've got going on there 198 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 1: in just a second.

At a Virginia Tech game, Demitrof came on. 203 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: I talked about riding around in his VW bug or 204 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: in his VW bus uh or van I should say, 205 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: and and sleeping in that thing.

No, so that 268 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: every I still get two or three pictures from that 269 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: every fall when some sculpture there. So that is beautiful. 270 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: That was me. I've trust me, I've been there, I've 271 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: stared at that end. I never ever, in my wildest dream, 272 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: said any desire to go up and and visit it. 273 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: Now I'm happy that I didn't. Uh, that's that's a 274 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: whole fame that's a whole fame story. Well, and that's 275 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 1: nicely done. Hey, you get to the volunteers for those 276 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: who don't know, a director of player personnel for a 277 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: college program, A when did this position kind of become 278 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: vogue in vogue in college football? And then explain to 279 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: people what you do? Yeah, I think, you know, right 280 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 1: when I was getting into it, a couple of schools 281 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,599 Speaker 1: have had it, so that have been you know, it 282 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 1: probably started doing and I think Alabama was one of 283 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: the first ones to have one. Um. You know, I 284 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: think that's what Ed did it at Manwitz was doing 285 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: their kind of thing. Um. And then what I do 286 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: based on a daily I think every school is a 287 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 1: little different what they asked that person to do. UM, 288 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: But in general, you're overseeing the whole recruiting department, and 289 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 1: it's a school like any SEC school, it's a you know, 290 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: that's a lot of employees. That's a big job. Give 291 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: us a feel for, like, how many people you have 292 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: working in recruiting, not coaches, not coaches, Yeah, and and 293 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 1: full time guys, you know, five to six, I would say, 294 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 1: And then you get to do the workers. You know 295 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: you have you know quite a few of those. And 296 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 1: then you know you do have all the coaches because 297 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: you're having to deal with them. And it's not unlike 298 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 1: being a director of college scouting for a protein to 299 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: be on you know, a very similar in the fact 300 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: that here's where you gotta go. You're you know, this 301 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: is when you gotta go. You're trying to organize that, 302 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: You're communicating with those coaches all the time, um, just 303 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: like you would just scout. So you got that aspect 304 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,599 Speaker 1: aspect of it. But then from the other part is 305 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: the roster management of your current team. You know, scholarships, 306 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: how many you're gonna have next year, you know, how 307 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: many running backs you need to take in you know 308 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: two years from now. It's kind of a lot of that. 309 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: You're forecasting kind of what the landscape is gonna be 310 00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: and where your team is gonna be two years, three 311 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: years from now, So you can decide, okay, this in 312 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: this class. But we have to have three running backs. 313 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 1: We have to you know, we're only gonna take one 314 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: tight end this year. We're good, you know. So that's 315 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: a big part of it um of the job also, 316 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: And then you know, we do a great thing here, 317 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: I think to get our kids ready for the NFL. 318 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: And we have an NFL ready to this program that 319 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: I do just through the experiences of being in the NFL. 320 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: And we look at it this way. It's a great 321 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: way to you know, coaches, coaches are gonna coach you 322 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: and they're gonna tell you how to be great, and 323 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna teach you how to be great in the 324 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: NFL on the field. But not a lot of people 325 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: DJ like you and I have. We've seen behind the 326 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: kirk curtains, so to speak. Yeah, we know what questions 327 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: are gonna ask, we know what a scout looks for 328 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: the pro day, we know you know who they're going 329 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: to talk to when they come into the school and 330 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. That you can really educate these guys. 331 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: What you know that we take them through a combined interview, 332 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: which is you know, bizarre. It can be as bizarre 333 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: as you'll ever see and and things like that, even 334 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: how to drafts and you know, just you know, trying 335 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: to take it through the eyes of a personnel person 336 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: of what they're looking for. So that it's been a 337 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: big benefit our kids, and I enjoy doing that. Of course, 338 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: it keeps me, you know, involved in that. And then 339 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: you know, I think just the relationships that that I 340 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: can have with the NFL people, you know, for nine 341 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: years working with them side by side, and um, you know, 342 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: I think they know I'll shoot him straight and I 343 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: know if I need help on a kid, and they're 344 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: gonna shoot me straight. So it's been fun. Um And 345 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: like I said, a great part of is you're you're 346 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: involved in on a daily basis, and you know, I'm 347 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: actually on the field during games and not at a 348 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: b W three's you get to experience so like the 349 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: hail Mary at the at the Georgia last year, right 350 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: that that you were down there for that one. Yeah, 351 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: but I got admit I was on the way of 352 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: the locker room but left, Yeah, I was, I was, 353 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: I was one ft in the locker room, But yeah, 354 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: I did see it. It's phenomenal. Um. From the recruiting standpoint, 355 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: I've always been curious about this. When when do the 356 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: kids first get on your radar? Um? Really majority of sophomores, 357 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: I would say annual, that's probably if you had to 358 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: look at the big picture. Of course you're gonna sprinkling 359 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: some freshmen. But I'd say as sophomore, as you're really 360 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: starting to to put to put a good list together, 361 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: you know, of your area. It's just like just like 362 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: in a scouting you know, our coaches all have an area, 363 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: you know, so they're kind of comb in their area 364 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: and they're coming up with these names with the younger kids, 365 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: and then we get to work on, you know, putting 366 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: their profile together. So I would say, yeah, as a sophomore, 367 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: it's a majority of them. And then and then how 368 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: much difference can you see from a kid that maybe 369 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: you're you're you're trying to project where they're gonna go, 370 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: and maybe you get in on a kid early like that, 371 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: And then how much different can I just think about 372 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: just my own kids, Might is going to be a 373 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: software next year, and I just think about how much 374 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,359 Speaker 1: difference she's gonna you know, look and develop from ountil 375 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: two years from now to be a totally different different athletes. 376 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: So I mean, what's the challenge then, just to stay 377 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: on track with these kids and maybe drop some off 378 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: while picking up some others. It's everything with a projection. 379 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: I mean, every single kid you look at his projection 380 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: at that age because you know, you don't know and 381 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: some kids are you know, some kids are young sophomores, 382 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: some are old sophomores, which makes a difference. You know, 383 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 1: that could be a year and you're really trying to 384 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: you know, we spend a lot of time on what 385 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: looking at a kid that's a young kid, even seniors. 386 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: Kids are hard. They change, but really what what features 387 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 1: do they have? What att routes they have that won't change? 388 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: You know, if they're fast, they're probably gonna stay fast. 389 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: You know, they have thirty three and a half inch arms, 390 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna have thirty three. You know, that's probably only 391 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: the pretty big kid. If they got big feet. You know, 392 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: if they get the quarterback and if he's just gotta 393 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: at that level, he's got a strong arm, you know, 394 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 1: he's probably can continue as he gets stronger to have 395 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: a strong you know, so it's you try to focus 396 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: on those things you can you can kind of see 397 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: in there. They won't go away no matter if the kid, 398 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: how you know, how much he grows or how much 399 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't grow, you can always count on that. Um 400 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: that's probably the biggest challenge now, you know again it's 401 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: just you know, if you can you kind of get into, 402 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,239 Speaker 1: you know, the character of the kid, and you know, 403 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: how much harder is that, how much harder is that 404 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: on the background information with high school kids as opposed 405 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: to college kids. It's it's probably the biggest difference. Dj 406 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: to be honest with the hardest thing I think you 407 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: have to come across because when these coaches go out 408 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: always said this about high school versus college athletes. In 409 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: high school, it's limitless, it's endless the amount of kids 410 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: you have to look at. You know, there's always kids 411 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: popping up releasing college. You know, you have schools you 412 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: go to and that's it. So that's the hardest parts 413 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: of these coaches go out on the road and they're 414 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: only loud out twice a year. They got they may 415 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: have to hit six schools in a day. Well, they're 416 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: not getting you know, you're really only gonna talk to 417 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 1: the prior, the high school coach. And so the biggest 418 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: thing for us is to get kids on campus as 419 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: much as possible because then everybody's around. You know, I 420 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 1: can't go on the road, you know and see kids. 421 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: So that's my only chance to see them as you 422 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: give him the camp, you give him the campus as 423 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: many times, and then you can really kind of get 424 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 1: around them. You're around the parents, and you try to 425 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 1: do as much as you can when you have them 426 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 1: to try to figure all that out. But it's it's 427 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: extra on average. On say, let's just say throw out 428 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: a number, Say, right, you signed twenty five kids on 429 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: average since you've been there. How many of those would 430 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 1: you say you're able to get on campus to see him? 431 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: You know, in terms of getting him in on campus 432 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: for a little especially if you know, we try not 433 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: to go too far out of our our area, you know, 434 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 1: you know, well, you know, the basis is kind of 435 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: a six hour area radius kids now Tennessee. You can 436 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: go to California and pick a few kids and go 437 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: to Texas. You know, we can do that, you know, fortunately, 438 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 1: but we don't make a habit of it. We're gonna 439 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: make our living in Tennessee, you know, Georgia, Florida, you 440 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: know North Carolina. So because of that, we'll get kids 441 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: on I've been an average if we sent you talking 442 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 1: about those kids, I bet I bet the average coming 443 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 1: on campus four times. Yeah, wow, you know, probably on 444 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: an average. That's crazy. UM, tell us about about Barnett. 445 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: You remember going were you there through that recruiting process? 446 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: Were what you see in him? What do you know 447 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: you were getting out of him? What? You know? I 448 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: talked about those things that knew wouldn't go away. He 449 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 1: was always the toughest guy in the field. Um, when 450 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: you met him in person, there wasn't a more serious, 451 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: uh kind of ornery kid that you ever met. Not 452 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: in a bad way, but the kid just had a 453 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: chip on his shoulder, you know, and he had a 454 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: feeling that wouldn't go away. So you knew he was driven. 455 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: He knew he was tough. Now again, he kind of 456 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: looked like he does now in high school. To be 457 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: honest with you, you know, he was two hundred sixty pounds. 458 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 1: We really thought, to be honest with we thought he 459 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: would grow into a d tackle really and he just Yeah, 460 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: we really did. We thought he would be that with 461 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: his toughness, we thought he'd be a good fit for him. 462 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: But you know, he kind of kept his body, kind 463 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: of his weight kind of always stayed around two sixty eight. 464 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: Obviously he was very productive. But thinking about Derek Barnett that, 465 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: you know, it really was us in Vanderbilt was in 466 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: the recruiting battle for him. Yeah, we had well, we 467 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: had a knock off a trip in Missouri that last 468 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: weekend that we were worried about, but that was really it, 469 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: to be honest with you. And so he came in 470 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: the chip on his shoulder, was not a midier kid. 471 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: So he came in in June about the first, about 472 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: the second day in pads. He comes in, sticks a 473 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 1: senior linebacker and he's on scout team, picks him up, 474 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: strips the ball, covers the ball and we're like, yeah, 475 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,719 Speaker 1: that kid might have something. The second and then from 476 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: that point on and really the rest of his history 477 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: because of what he did, you know, kids first first 478 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 1: defensive line, the start in the history of this school 479 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: as a freshman um and you know, he just he 480 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: he took it from there and there's just again his 481 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 1: motor and his toughness never went away, that chip on 482 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 1: the shoulder every one away. I have the same type 483 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: of story.

You just knew a 490 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: scouting freshman freshman in high school stories solely why did 491 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: you come off the top fresh freshman? I was in college. 492 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 1: I was at so that was a college Yeah, I 493 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: got you, all right, Well, Sully had I'm gonna let 494 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: Selly lob Yeah, yeah, I gotta say that a Alvin 495 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: Kamara fan favorite, just to let everybody know he just 496 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: in such a short period of time. I've never seen 497 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: a Tennessee fan base really just love a player like Alvin. 498 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: What's what's your favorite Alvin Kamara story? Because I know 499 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: Saints fans are gonna love this guy. Yeah they will. 500 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: The best thing about Alvin I would say is that 501 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: nothing really bothers Elvin. You know, he's just the same 502 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,239 Speaker 1: kid all the time and he comes across. You meet 503 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: him as this laid back kid, but then you put 504 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 1: the ball in his hand or he asked him. He 505 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: really can do anything, and he's probably one of the better. 506 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: I mean, he's got a great arm. I mean, our 507 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: quarterbacks would stand all the time after practice and try 508 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: to hit the goalpost, you know, from like the fifty 509 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: just you know, it was, you know, a kid always. 510 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: He just got that kind of way of stepping up 511 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: big whenever he needs to um. And he's so laid back, 512 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: but you know he's just just came in with especially 513 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: his background. You know, you're a big shot at Alabama. 514 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: Then you go to Juco, which is you know, always 515 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 1: tough to do, especially for that path, and then to 516 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: come here and you got to really have this about Elvin. 517 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,199 Speaker 1: He's here a year and he gets named to captain, 518 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: and I think that said everything about Elvin Um and 519 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: he's you know again, he's the same kid every day. 520 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: Nothing bothers him. You know, he was really the backup 521 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: to the other kid for a while. I was fine. 522 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:27,719 Speaker 1: He knew I was gonna get my touches and make 523 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: my yards and and and score touchdowns. I'm good and 524 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: just a good teammate that way. And you know, um, 525 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: the same thing to the punt return. There's there's some 526 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 1: argument he might have been the best punt return in 527 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: the country, but we had Cam Sutton who was the 528 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: best punt return of the country, and so he just 529 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: kind of waited his turn. He get one or two 530 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 1: a game. And you know, again, he's just a team 531 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: first guy. And uh, I think that's what our kids, 532 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,239 Speaker 1: you you know, liked about him as he wasn't there 533 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: was no big time to him. And um, he's a talented, 534 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 1: talented kid. There's there's a bunch of other guys who 535 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: had to get drapped here. First of all, I need 536 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: to I need know what how did it resonate inside 537 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,439 Speaker 1: the building. I don't know if anybody was watching the 538 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,719 Speaker 1: year before when when we all gave Charles Davis such 539 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: a hard time about the University of Tennessee not have 540 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,479 Speaker 1: any draftable players. Was that was that referenced at all 541 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: inside the volunteer football program? Oh yeah, yeah, we we watched. 542 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: We keep a close eye and Charles that was that 543 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 1: was rough. That's why that's why d I'll be honest, 544 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 1: I watched, I watched, I watched every route this year 545 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: you wanted, you wanted to soak it all in. Yep, 546 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 1: I soaked it all in for Charles. He was so happy, 547 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: and he's such a classy guy. He wasn't really giving 548 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: it back to me as probably as much as he should, 549 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: uh as hard as I was. And for those who 550 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: don't know, after last year, the Minnesota Vikings selected Mouras 551 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: Bowinger from Germany UM And so after he was picked, 552 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: I told Charles on on our on air during the draft, said, 553 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: well Germany has had more players picked in Tennessee, and 554 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: so we all we gotta laugh. Charles took it, took 555 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: it like a man. And then this year they came 556 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 1: back and all these volunteers got drafted, and he just 557 00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: sat back and smiled. He didn't even throw it back 558 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: at me. And I think you guys are in a 559 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,360 Speaker 1: situation now, the you guys you which have been there 560 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: for a while, and this group has been there for 561 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: a while and developing these kids that I don't know 562 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 1: that we'll see another year without a Tennessee player drafted 563 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: for quite some time. I certainly hope that. Oh oh, 564 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: by the way, the last thing before I let you 565 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: go selfishly was there. Uh did Appalachian State put a 566 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: legitimate scare into you guys last year? Yeah? I was 567 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: scared going in, be honest, because you know, scouting those 568 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: you knew how tough they were and that those are 569 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: teams are tough to open up with. And uh absolutely, 570 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 1: I mean my word, it was one of those things 571 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 1: you never you always so you always kept going through 572 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: the games when I you know, well, in the end 573 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: will end up eating three touchdowns, you know we'll get 574 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: and they just hung in there, tough kids. Um I was, 575 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: I was. I was upset because you guys, you know, 576 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: I thought we we had a chance to lay in 577 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: the weeds with Miami coming to Boon, which is still 578 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: baffles me that they got Miami to come up there, Uh, 579 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: that we could have a chance. But then after we 580 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,479 Speaker 1: take you guys to overtime, then uh then Miami, we 581 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: weren't weren't sneaking up on them, and they beat the 582 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: brakes off us the following or a couple of weeks later. 583 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: There were many many times during that app State game, 584 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: I'm still wishing Daniel Jeremiah was the quarterback and that 585 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: take Laime over over DJ. Yeah, that's beautiful. Hey, give 586 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: us a name, Give us one name, Give us one 587 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: senior if you can for next year. For for folks 588 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: NFL fans, they're watching the volunteers next year, um as 589 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: somebody that we need to keep an eye on. Well, 590 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: senior wise, it's a little hard because we had three 591 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: great ones leave. Yeah, you know, I've seniors next year 592 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: really are kind of the steady eddies. You know, We've 593 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,640 Speaker 1: got you know, Jay Sean Robertson, who's been a four 594 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: year starter at the University of Tennessee at guard Gardens Center. 595 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: You know, he will be a you know, again, not 596 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 1: one of the fans watch much during the game, but 597 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: he's a He's just a good, good football player. And 598 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: I do think we have the best punter in Trevor 599 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 1: Daniel in the country. I know that doesn't get three 600 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: on a three sixty dunk. The guy's an athlete. Yes, 601 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 1: he is unbelievable and I really think he's one of 602 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: the best in the country. And then our young kids 603 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 1: are what you know, we'll have another class of juniors 604 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: that will have to obviously we'll have to make some decisions, 605 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, which is really, let's face it, it's what 606 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,719 Speaker 1: you how you wanted every year, no question, no question, 607 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: you know who's who's the Not not that we're not 608 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: encouraging any of these young kids. I hope they stay 609 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: a Tennessee forever. But just in terms for me, is 610 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: there is there one or two juniors that would be 611 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: fun for me, just enjoyable scouting, just something for me 612 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 1: to watch over the summer. Can you give me a 613 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: couple of names? Yeah? You know, yeah, I think you know. 614 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 1: It starts with our linebacker Darren Kirkland. Unfortunate last year 615 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,880 Speaker 1: he had a huge, huge injury in the Virginia Tech 616 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: game and missed the Bowl because the season that was 617 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,679 Speaker 1: part of our struggles on defense, and he's such a 618 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: catalyst for us. But if you watch our bowl game 619 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 1: where he when he was finally healthy, and you know, 620 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 1: if you were as a scout and just watching the 621 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,120 Speaker 1: first two games and that one, I think he would 622 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: like what you see. And if he stays healthy this year, 623 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: you know, he should have a great year. Force And 624 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 1: of course, you know, Khalil Mackenzie is always a kid 625 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 1: you're going to talk about because of his just he's 626 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: a freakishly athletic kid for his size. You know, that's Reggie, 627 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: Reggie mckensy's kid. Yep, and true, you know, true true 628 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: zero noses are hard fine, you know, and I think 629 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: that's a kid that could have you has had a 630 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: good career. Um Unfortunately for him sometimes you know, this 631 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: goes he's having a great play when he's because he's 632 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: getting blocked by three people. You know. Still, you know, 633 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 1: but as a scout, you look at him from a 634 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: scout's eyes, you know, you see, he does does so 635 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: many good things and so those and then Juwan Jennings, 636 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: I think our receiver who's had a knack for just 637 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: some pierroics over his career short career so far. But 638 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: you know, Juwan's gotta he's kind of got that Derek 639 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 1: Barnett to him as far as just the toughness and 640 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: a competitiveness that he just can't you know, it's hard 641 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: to match on Saturdays. And so you know, there's just 642 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: a few names there that I think are some guys 643 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: could have really good years. I put him on the list. Man. Well, hey, 644 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: I appreciate you taking some time out over the summer here. 645 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: I know you're hopefully getting a little bit of downtime 646 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: here before everything really cranks up.

I know, Selly, you love that. 656 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: But now I'm excited bringing a good friend here. Shan O'Hara. 657 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: I like to do a proper introduction. He's three time 658 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl or Super Bowl champ, sean starting hunter, thirty 659 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: five games over your career. I want to start with 660 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: the with this with this first question for you. UM, 661 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: I looked it up Joe Thomas hundred sixties straight starts, 662 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: which is ridiculous. But then I looked at Bruce Matthews 663 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: had two d forty four straight starts. Is that the 664 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: dumbest thing you've ever heard as an offensive line? That's insane. 665 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: Bruce should be bottling and selling his blood. Um. You 666 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: know it's funny because everybody made a big deal about 667 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: Brett Farve's record. Uh, you know, Eli is kind of 668 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: pretty good streak right now. I've kind of put quarterbacks 669 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: in their own categories. So yeah, for an off of 670 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: the lineman, and Bruce played at all. I mean he 671 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: moved over to center. You know, he was a guard. 672 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,479 Speaker 1: I think he played tackle too. Um, so you know 673 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: he did it all. It's unbelievable. And here's the craziest part. Two. 674 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: I know a couple of guys that have played with them. 675 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: They said they never saw him with an ice bag, 676 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 1: ever had an ice bag. He's unbelievable. Like, yeah, he 677 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: never wore an ice bag, never iced anything. Enough. Guy's 678 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: just a machine. Like to explain it to people at home, 679 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: but don't understand as an offensive lineman in the NFL. 680 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: Describe your week, you finish up, you play a Sunday 681 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: afternoon game, Like, how is your body feeling on a 682 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: Monday in a Tuesday? Yeah, well, my first question would 683 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: be what's the service we're playing on? You know, because 684 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: if we're playing on natural grass, I'm gonna feel ten 685 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: times better than if we played on turf. Now, the 686 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: field turf that guys played on now and then I 687 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: played on is ten times better than that artificial turf 688 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: that Bruce Matthews was playing on. And the stuff that 689 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: you probably played on when you know that's what I 690 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: played on in college that was our home field. Was 691 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: that hard turf that would freeze over? Yeah, man, it's 692 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: terrible and you know it with your joints. Would you 693 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: know that that that turf would grab your foot even 694 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: if you were wearing a flat sol shree Uh. So, 695 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: you know, the surface is a big factor, um, especially 696 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: for offensive linemen because you know, no matter how athletic 697 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: you are, at some point you're gonna end up on 698 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: the ground. You know. For me it was when I 699 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: was pan kaing guys, you know. But for some guys 700 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: that's you know, for other reasons. They may fall down, 701 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: our trip or or get beat, but get you're gonna 702 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: get dirt and grass stains on you at some point. 703 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: So that you know, Sunday, like as I got over DJ, 704 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: you know, Monday's um. You know, I always tried to 705 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: come in Monday after a game and get a good workout. 706 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: It just because you want to get the sweat and 707 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: the soreness out of you. Um, you know. Plus um, 708 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: you know I was I was a tort all guy, 709 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: and so I would get a shot out toward all 710 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: on game day and you know it's part of that 711 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: would still be in me on Monday. So I got 712 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: a good workout in with that stealing my body. I 713 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: still I got to work out a little bit harder. Um, 714 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: and you know, the soreness will than as bad. But 715 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: you know, as as I got in my six, seventh, eighth, 716 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: and ninth, and tenth. Later on in my career, Tuesdays 717 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: were the worst days. Monday you would start to feel 718 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: a little bit of source. But Tuesday, sometimes even Monday night, 719 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: depending on how many snaps we had, you know, yeah, 720 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: you typically average about sixty five plays in the game. 721 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 1: Offensive linement take every single snap. It's not like running 722 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: backs who maybe took thirty snaps, or receivers who are alternating, 723 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: or d lineman who switched. So you feel every one 724 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: of those snaps. And there were a number of times 725 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: where I go out to dinner with my wife on 726 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: Monday night, you know, or with a group of people, 727 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: and you sit down at the dinner table, You're feeling good. 728 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: You know, the lines slowing, the beer slowing, and you 729 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: feel good and then all of a sudden it's time 730 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 1: to get up and you can't get out of your 731 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: chair because everything is worn off. The soreness is there, 732 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: and um, you know, even in my last couple of years, 733 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: I was sore on Wednesdays. It really wasn't until Thursday 734 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: that I actually started feeling fresh. That's what's so nuts 735 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: about that. When wondering forty four straight starts, I don't 736 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: think Joe, by the way, Joe Thomas, I don't think 737 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: he has missed a snap yet, has he? And you 738 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: almost have to double it for him because how many 739 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 1: of those games are they actually even in? You know 740 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,239 Speaker 1: you're I mean my question is, how do you how 741 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: does a lot of games? How does your shoe never 742 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: pop off or you you know, you got your helmet 743 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: comes off, you gotta come out? How is he not 744 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: come out for a single play? No, that's what I mean. 745 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: It's like did bricker Shaw Ferguson when he retired and 746 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: they said, look, he missed one snap out of an 747 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 1: entire career and it was at the end of the game, 748 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: and they put into well Reevas in his place. So 749 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: they could try that last did you ever play? UM? 750 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 1: It's remarkable. I mean, you know, your chin strap breaks, 751 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: you're you know, you get poked in the eye. You 752 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: know you like you said, your shoe comes off. That's 753 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: it's it's really remarkable. Here's here's what I want to 754 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: get to with you today. I wanted to bring you on. 755 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to look at some some categories from last 756 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: year where teams finished in the bottom five and the league, 757 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: and then based off of what they've done in the offseason, 758 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: free agency, the draft and really getting some guys back healthy, 759 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: UH is a big factor as well some coaching changes. 760 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: I thought we maybe could try and pluck some of 761 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: these teams out of the bottom five that we think 762 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 1: may be able to to to leap all the way 763 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: up into the to the top ten in the league 764 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: at least make a drastic improvement from last year. So 765 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 1: I'll read off the teams in the categories and just 766 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 1: see if there's a team that jumps out to you 767 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: that you think could make a make a push here. 768 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,760 Speaker 1: Last year rushing offense, UH, the last the bottom five teams, 769 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: the Ravens, the Giants, the Lions, the Rams, the Vikings, UM, 770 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: any of those teams. Is there a team in particularly 771 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: you think could see making a major improvement in the 772 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: run game. Yeah, I think the last two that you 773 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 1: mentioned are gonna be really interesting to watch. Obviously, with Minnesota, um, 774 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 1: you know they've they've they've added two really good running backs. 775 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: I know that losing Adrian Peterson is huge, but um, 776 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: you know he can't replace Adrian Peterson in his prime 777 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: with one guy, so they know that they try to 778 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 1: do with two guys. They got Latavious Murray from Local 779 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: and who kind of it's a little bit like Adrian, 780 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 1: and drafted Dalvin Cook. So I think that's a pretty 781 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 1: remarkable one to punch, provided Dalvin can pick up the offense. 782 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 1: I think coming out this in this year's draft, Dalvin 783 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: was probably the most complete running back. Um. You know, 784 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: obviously a lot of attention was played that paid to 785 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey and how explosive an electric he was and 786 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: full net as well. But when you you know, I know, 787 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,839 Speaker 1: you watched enough film on Dalvin Cook to see how 788 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: many runs he made where he was bouncing off defenders 789 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,359 Speaker 1: and breaking tackles. It just seemed like every single game 790 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,880 Speaker 1: he'd have about five to seven of those of those runs. 791 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 1: So that'll be good to see him in the question 792 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,399 Speaker 1: obviously with Minnesota and you mentioned the health park, uh 793 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: for them just getting guys healthy, and they signed a 794 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: couple of tackles, Um, you know, Mike Remors and how 795 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:51,399 Speaker 1: do you like that? How do you like that pair? 796 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: By the way, I was not a big Remorse guy, 797 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean I think the bad taste everybody 798 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 1: has in them out still from the Super Bowl. You know, 799 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: him playing right tackle and getting beat Um, yeah, I mean, 800 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: while Miller makes a lot of guys look bad. But um, 801 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: you know he actually he moved over to the left 802 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: tackle a couple of times last year for Caroline and 803 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 1: he played pretty well. Um, so you know that. My 804 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 1: big question for him is you know, and I think 805 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 1: it's um Riley Reef, Um, yeah, how are they going 806 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: to play those guys? By the way, Well, Reef play 807 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 1: the left of the right. I think I think you 808 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: gotta put put a Reef in the left and I 809 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: think Ramors is more of a right tackle. Um. You know, 810 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: here's the question with that offense is if they're going 811 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 1: to run that shotgun running game. You know, I don't 812 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,840 Speaker 1: think that benefits either one of those tackles, and I 813 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: don't really know how much it benefits Latavious Murray or 814 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. Um. I think that's one of the reasons 815 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 1: why Adrian was okay getting out of there. Um. You 816 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: know that that single back run out of out of 817 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 1: the shotgun position really limits you as a running back. 818 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: You can't cut back. You know, you can cut up, 819 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: and you can press the whole a little bit, but 820 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 1: when you're running that the run. The run, running the 821 00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,879 Speaker 1: football out of that shotgun home position to the left 822 00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: or right of the quarterback kind of limits you. So 823 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: I'm curious to see Minnesota. But then the other team, um, 824 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:07,800 Speaker 1: and I'm pretty sure you mentioned it was the Rams. 825 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: I'm really curious to see this offense with Andrew where 826 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 1: they left tackle, moving Robinson in the gate guard. And 827 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: then really just the Matt Lafleur effect. You know, Matt 828 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 1: was with Kyle and Alianta, and I thought some of 829 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: the things that Atlanta did in the run game last year, 830 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: we're certainly overshadowed by the passing game, but the way 831 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,760 Speaker 1: that they attack defense is to different different running plays 832 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: and running styles that they had from a scheme to 833 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: his own concept to a little bit of trickery. I 834 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 1: think that's gonna pay some dividends for the Rams in 835 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: that offense. I think they did some things. Hopefully in 836 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,280 Speaker 1: the passing game, you get a young quarterback that gets better, 837 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 1: you bring over Robert Woods. The early returns on Cooper 838 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 1: Cup have been good. Hopefully they're creative enough to do 839 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,879 Speaker 1: something with Tabo and Austin, so hopefully that will take 840 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 1: some pressure off Girly too and they can get him 841 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 1: cranked back up. But passing wise, last year bottom five teams, 842 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 1: by the way I I started those two teams when 843 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: I went through this as well, the Rams and the 844 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 1: Vikings in the run game, but passing game Browns just 845 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 1: to throw something, you know, since I didn't send it 846 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: on Gurly. The one thing that jumped out of me 847 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: last year looking at his runs. You know, the funny 848 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: thing is everybody looks at the run game and they 849 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 1: look at the yards per carry and it's like, man, 850 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 1: all if you had a down year, the only average 851 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 1: you know, three and a half yards per carrier four. 852 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 1: The one thing that you end up missing with that 853 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: a lot of times is the big runs. And he 854 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: didn't have many big runs. You know, two years ago 855 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 1: he had he had a ton of runs over twenty yards, 856 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 1: over fifteen yards. Last year, I think he had maybe 857 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,800 Speaker 1: you know, ten or less over fifteen to twenty yards. 858 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: They never had that big run play. Um, And I 859 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: think that's that's something that will probably moro from Gurley 860 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: next year. Yeah, hopefully they needed they needed a big way. 861 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,280 Speaker 1: Uh So, the bottom five passing teams, I mentioned the Browns, 862 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,279 Speaker 1: We've got the Texans, the Bills, the Rams, and the Niners. 863 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 1: I circled the Rams here. I just kind of mentioned 864 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: those improvements they made in the receiver position. Also, I 865 00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: was big Gerald Everett fan of the kid they took 866 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 1: out of the second round out of out of South Alabama. 867 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 1: Is a really really good player. I think he's got 868 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 1: a chance to be kind of a mismatch player. But 869 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: really coaching I think makes the biggest difference for them 870 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,919 Speaker 1: in the passing game. Are you with me on that one? Yeah? 871 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 1: And you mentioned some of the receiver editions that they added, 872 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 1: you know, and maybe not some big splash guys, but 873 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 1: guys that have ability after the catch, and I think, um, 874 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's where you can really gain a 875 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: lot a lot of that yardage. UM that that'll probably 876 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 1: boost the offense. You know, you mentioned Talon Austin kind 877 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: of getting him on the run, UM that should help. 878 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I think the forty niners are probably going 879 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 1: to be better, and I don't think Brian Horder is 880 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,279 Speaker 1: gonna average three forty yards of game. But I think 881 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 1: they were dead last last year. I mean they I 882 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: think that they could sleeper team in That to me 883 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: is really detections. Um. I just look at the explosive 884 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: that they have at the wide receiver position with DeAndre Hopkins, 885 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 1: with Graxon Miller, with Will Fuller. UM. I fully expect 886 00:39:55,640 --> 00:40:01,399 Speaker 1: Shawn Watson to be their starter. I think he could 887 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: start a week one. And here's why. You know, you 888 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: look at everything he did in his collegiate career. I 889 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: think he lost three entire games in his whole career 890 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,919 Speaker 1: in college. Um. You know, he finds ways to win. 891 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,320 Speaker 1: And it's not just hey, I'm just out there making 892 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 1: it up. You know, it's not just I'm gonna scramble around. 893 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: And you know these Johnny Manziel type highlight plays. You know, 894 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 1: he's making big time throws. They're always in big time games. 895 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,439 Speaker 1: And he seems to step up and play the best 896 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: when everything's on the line. But I look at the 897 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: Shaun Watson. He's got all the physical tools, but everything 898 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 1: everybody that I've talked to about him, and I'm sure 899 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: you've talked to a lot of people about him, and 900 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: you know you may have heard some of the same things. 901 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: He gets it. And when I say he gets it, 902 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: he gets it on so many levels. Mentally, when you 903 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,720 Speaker 1: hear him talk about a game, he can break down 904 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: a throw he missed in the second quarter. Hey, you 905 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,879 Speaker 1: know what, We've got a really favorable coverage here. He 906 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: the excellent knows in his mind he's not going to 907 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: struggle with And I think Bill O'Brien, um, you know, 908 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: he the way that he's learned how to attack defenses 909 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 1: from his time in New England and Norton with Brady, 910 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: and the way that you know his mind works, I 911 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: think he and Deshaun Watson are gonna be a really 912 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 1: good fit. Yeah, Look, I think it. I think we 913 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 1: might see Tom Savage for a couple of weeks, but 914 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: I don't think it'll be long. And you're saying week one, 915 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:22,800 Speaker 1: I would say by week four, I think would probably 916 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 1: end up seeing him um for all the reasons that 917 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: you mentioned there. Let's jump over the defensive side of 918 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 1: the ball here, Sean, this one kind of blew me away. 919 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 1: Looking at sacks from last year, the bottom five in 920 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 1: the league. A couple of these teams. Kansas City was 921 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: and sacks last year with all the dudes they got. 922 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 1: The Jets are sorry they the Jets had twenty seven 923 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 1: sacks last year. Then you got the Browns Alliance and 924 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 1: the Raiders. UM in that group, I mean, man, the Jets, 925 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 1: that's a whole another that's a whole another discussion. But 926 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: the Chiefs in the in the Browns with what they 927 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 1: did in the draft and those young guys kind of 928 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: coming along. And I think even the Raiders if you 929 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 1: get a healthy Mario Edwards to kind of tag team 930 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: what they have there with Khalil Mack and and Bruce Irvan. Mean, 931 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: I was kind of surprised to see some of these 932 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: teams down there. I'd expect more than a couple of 933 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 1: these teams to vault back up near the top ten. Yeah. 934 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 1: I think the Raiders, you know, shoot, with Bruce Irvan 935 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 1: and Khalil Mack, you know, they could end up um, 936 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: you know, both having double digits and and and I 937 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: think you know Khalil Mack obviously getting as much attention 938 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 1: as you did last season. Um, you know he'll choose 939 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 1: more of that, but he'll be more impactful. Um. I'm 940 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,479 Speaker 1: shocked to hear that the Jets are that that low. 941 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:33,399 Speaker 1: They have no interest. They had seven sacks in week one, Um, 942 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 1: they get many they got how many after that they got? 943 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 1: Uh twenty after that? That that's I mean, there's no 944 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 1: excuse for that when you look at the town. But 945 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,720 Speaker 1: they have mean Leonard Williams, Sheldon Richardson, Mohamed Wilkerson, Um, 946 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,799 Speaker 1: you know they they loved the five down defense too, 947 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 1: so they're all getting one on one matchup. So that 948 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 1: really tells you how bad that secondary was for the Jets. Um. 949 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 1: And it also tells you how bad the offense was 950 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 1: because they want it's getting worse the lead. You know 951 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 1: they were they were playing four minute defense for for 952 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: a lot of the seat and so that's shocking. Yeah. 953 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,799 Speaker 1: I'm shocked about the Chiefs too, because with with their 954 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,319 Speaker 1: past rushers and with how good their defense has been 955 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,399 Speaker 1: and how aggressive they are. Um, you know I would 956 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: stick them to bounce back as well, yeah, I'll be 957 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 1: interesting to see what happens there. Then overall scoring defense 958 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 1: UM bottom five here Jets, Chargers, Brown, Saints, forty Niners. 959 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:29,799 Speaker 1: I identified the charges. I was kind of surprised they 960 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: were that bad this this last year, but they had 961 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 1: some injuries. You get Jason Brett back. Both and Ingram 962 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: I think are about as good at edge pair as 963 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: we have right now in the league. And I think 964 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: Gus Bradley bringing his his style in his uh kind 965 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 1: of aggressive nature. I think they've got bodies that plug 966 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,240 Speaker 1: in beautifully into terms of how they play their front. 967 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,879 Speaker 1: I mean, I think you're gonna see Um Evan Ingram 968 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 1: will kind of stand up and be that uh, that 969 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: elephant guy for him there. And you've got both that 970 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: you can move up and down the line of scrimmage. 971 00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: I know it. Talked to Bucky Brooks earlier today and 972 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 1: he had just visited with Us Bradley and he was 973 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 1: pretty pumped up about about what he has to work 974 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,359 Speaker 1: with and how these guys fit in. Yeah, I think 975 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: that defense, I mean, when they're they're very physical and 976 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 1: anytime you'd watch film on on that front, Um, you 977 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: know you mentioned keeping keeping Melvin um you know, I 978 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 1: think they tagged him. You know, that was huge. You know, 979 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,600 Speaker 1: he plays such a big, such a big role in 980 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 1: that defense. You know, he can put rush with his 981 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 1: hand in the dirt or standing up, um, you know, 982 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 1: both is such a big force. I think their offense, 983 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 1: their additions to their offense are going to help their defense. 984 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 1: The fact that they actually invested in in some of 985 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 1: the offensive line, that's going to help their run game. Um. 986 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,840 Speaker 1: You know, Melvin Gordon obviously had a much better season 987 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 1: last year, but I think that'll, you know, keep that 988 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,359 Speaker 1: defense fresh. And the other two one of the other 989 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 1: teams you mentioned. We were just talking about the Jets. 990 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 1: They're scoring defense. Um, you know, I think that they're 991 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 1: gonna have a big bounce back here. I know everybody's 992 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 1: focusing on the offense and the lack thereof UM, but 993 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: that defense with Todd Bowls and how aggressive he likes 994 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: to be, and them getting Jamal Adams with a sixth pick, 995 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I think they're still tickled pink the fact 996 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 1: that they were able to get that guy um and 997 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 1: and put him into that defense. It extremely interesting to 998 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,839 Speaker 1: see how these teams kind of spin around San Francisco. Uh, 999 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 1: Dead last and scoring defense last year gave a thirty 1000 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:22,879 Speaker 1: points a game. I think their offense controlling the clock 1001 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 1: a little bit more could help them in that regard. Well, 1002 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 1: and you know there's two you've been around football enough, DJ. 1003 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 1: When the defense knows you have no shot, they lose 1004 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 1: their will and and they just kind of you know, 1005 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: the one thing that would happen. You know, I would 1006 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: do these old line of the week awards, and every 1007 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:42,359 Speaker 1: week I would started off with the top rushing offenses. Well, 1008 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 1: every week it was a four hund of defense given 1009 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: up the two of your games. And you know, when 1010 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,600 Speaker 1: you look at the talent that they have, you know, 1011 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 1: with how many first rounders they had, the forced Buckner um, 1012 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: you know, Aaronson said, you've got some talented guys. Now 1013 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:58,320 Speaker 1: you add in Solomon Thomas, you had in moving Foster, 1014 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 1: put him next to the arm bowmen, that defense is 1015 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: gonna look completely different. Well, makes us see how these 1016 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 1: teams spinning around.

It's not scientific. Our listeners 1108 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 1: were underwear, okay, so that's what separates us from the 1109 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 1: NFL podcast. I think we're gonna be able to beat 1110 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 1: them in this game. Right if it was if we were, 1111 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 1: you know, talking about, you know, trying to sell toasters 1112 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:38,240 Speaker 1: or some other gag gifts.
