00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 1: a baller sitting with us in on the bus right now,

13
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: Diego Pavia, starting quarterback Vanderbilt, true underdog mentality. I was

14
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 1: telling you before we got on here, like you are

15
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 1: the epitome of a high school wrestling state champ that

16
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: also plays quarterback.

17
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 2: Is that a backhanded compliment?

18
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: No, I think it's a great compliment. I think it's

19
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: a great I think it explains everything about his game,

20
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: his antics on the field, off the field, everything you

21
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: hear the area around the Eagle Pavia. It makes so

22
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: much sense that he was a how like you were

23
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: a state champion, but you were kind of telling me

24
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 1: that you were number one in the country for.

25
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 2: For like fourth grade into like seventh grade.

26
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 3: Which is before puberty. So fourth grade is seventh grade.

27
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 3: Then everyone kind of hit puberty, and then after that

28
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 3: it was it was no, it's crazy to be number

29
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 3: one in the country. I'm just messing with you, but

30
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 3: that is that is wild. I feel like you are

31
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 3: the first generation of cats that grew up watching Johnny Manziel.

32
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 3: Like the way you play, and I mean that as

33
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 3: one hundred percent comment, like you talk shit, you get

34
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 3: after it. Dudes hit the shit out of you in

35
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 3: the sideline. You're limping on your leg, but your boys,

36
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 3: your offensive lines watching you limp over, they're getting they're

37
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 3: muscling up against other cats, and you just going there

38
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 3: and you just don't give a fuck. It really feels

39
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 3: like it's like, hey, we got a play call, boys,

40
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 3: but diego at the end of the day, like you're

41
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 3: gonna do whatever the fuck you want to do.

42
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 2: I think sometimes, uh, they think that's what the play

43
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: call is. But I'm just changing it, you know what

44
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: I mean. So I just change it to what I like.

45
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: So you you'll just go you'll go a well and

46
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: change it to whatever you want.

47
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 2: At times, yeah, yeah, like uh, if the play say

48
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 2: it's a run, play second and short, like now we're

49
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: we're deep, we're going deep. We get in the next play,

50
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: no coach.

51
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 3: Where he's aware in the time it's happening, He's like

52
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 3: what the fuck?

53
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Sometimes like they get to talk to you now,

54
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 2: and so like on the earpiece, it's like whoa, whoa,

55
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:35,839
Speaker 2: Like what are we doing? Like he's talking to someone

56
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 2: else on the top, you know what I mean. But

57
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 2: like I can't talk back. I don't have a mouth,

58
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 2: he said, he can hear me. So it's just like shit,

59
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 2: just better work.

60
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: You're like you're thinking your head. You guys are taking

61
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: a little too long for my liking. Like let me,

62
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna draw something up right.

63
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: Well not he'll call a play, but it's like I

64
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 2: checked down and we do a number system, and so

65
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 2: if it's like a run, then I'm not changing it,

66
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And then sometimes you asked

67
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: me in the film and like what'd you get here,

68
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: and I'm thinking, well, I thought you said a different number.

69
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 2: But in reality, in my head, I'm just changing the play.

70
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: Now.

71
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 3: What do you what are you changing the play based off?

72
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 3: Are you looking at safety rotation? You'll at this nickel

73
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 3: press corner over here and you're like, okay, they're bringing

74
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,119
Speaker 3: a little pressure over here, or you like, hey, it's

75
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 3: we're here to score. We're here to score touchdowns. I'm

76
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 3: here to ball out.

77
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: Coach.

78
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 2: It's like tendancy, you know what I mean, Like, oh,

79
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 2: first first drive against Let's say they were playing Bama,

80
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 2: first drive against BAM when they brought the house, second

81
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 2: and short. All right, man and man, I'm expecting man

82
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 2: and man, let's take the top off.

83
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 3: I mean we listen, we can jump around. We have

84
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 3: to jump around all of your like your career, the

85
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 3: no offers, you have two D two offers, you go

86
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 3: to juco route and you jump around essentially with kill

87
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 3: THEE in your entire career. But like you did bring

88
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 3: up something that was that Vanderbilt hasn't done since win.

89
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: E never been.

90
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: I've never done that. And I remember sitting at tight

91
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 3: end you at Vanderbilt's practice facility and your boys running

92
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 3: up and obviously I see the offensive lineman. We wp up,

93
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,839
Speaker 3: you got a bunch of cash just ripping around talking

94
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 3: about oh shit, we we'd that. I'm like, hey, this

95
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 3: white guy. Is this guy doing right? But then they're

96
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 3: like always starting to hey, this Pavia kid, this Pavia kid,

97
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 3: his CAD's the truth, blah blah blah blah. Like you

98
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 3: get to you get to play Alabama at Vanderbilt, it's

99
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 3: a totally different atmosphere. It's still an away game for

100
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 3: you guys because at this point we don't have the

101
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 3: lore of Diego Pavia and Vanderbilt yet, and so you

102
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 3: have this stadium out of construction, Nick Saban or no,

103
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 3: this is killingdi bor. They come in and you guys

104
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 3: put on a clinic like it's like they score, you guys,

105
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 3: go go down the field, eight nine, ten plays, score again,

106
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 3: back and forth and are able to beat Alabama. Like

107
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 3: obviously I've known you a little bit of time, and

108
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 3: it's always confidence, But like, how at what point where

109
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 3: you're like, holy shit, we're really going to do this,

110
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 3: Like it's actually not talking anymore, We're actually going to

111
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 3: be able to pull this off.

112
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 2: Oh like when we won, I would just think like

113
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: when I when we pulled the ball and I got

114
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 2: like a twelve yard game and then like the game

115
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 2: was over. But like I always thought like we could win,

116
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 2: like they know, Like that's just how I approached the game. Though.

117
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: It's just like, uh, if you go in there with

118
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: the losing mentality, you're screwed already. And so for me,

119
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: I don't care if it's Bama, Nebraska, Michigan. We don't

120
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 2: say that any words.

121
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 3: Do you get something Michigan?

122
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 2: I do?

123
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 3: What's up?

124
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 2: Well, Michigan's a great school, but they should be winning

125
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 2: more than they should with the cap that they got,

126
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 2: like de Poortnoy donates to Michigan. I know the nil

127
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 2: the roof. Should you not win?

128
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I agree, And we won seven games last

129
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 3: year with throwing turned off. Like if you're if you're

130
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 3: talking about, hey, there's multiple phases to an offense. You're

131
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 3: gonna take off probably like a fifty an offense and

132
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 3: still win seven games and just knock down, drag him

133
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,239
Speaker 3: out three yards and cloud of dust.

134
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 2: The running back was good, though he should have went

135
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: higher than what he did in the draft.

136
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 3: You know, he started his first twenty games at the

137
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 3: University of Michigan. He was a linebacker. I think we

138
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 3: got to make this cat a running back.

139
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 2: He's really good. Yeah, he saw hid where's he at now?

140
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: Come on?

141
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 3: I think he went to the Jets. I'm not sure,

142
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 3: but yeah, I mean, listen, tough year. We win the

143
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 3: national championship. You must have forgot about that in twenty

144
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 3: twenty four, and then we go into this past year. Yeah,

145
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 3: we had some difficulties at quarterback. Not going to come

146
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 3: out the boys at all. We had a hard time

147
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 3: tossing the ball over the yard. It was bad. It

148
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 3: was not great. Now we got this cat, Bryce Underwood,

149
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 3: who apparently is the second coming. I'm a little nervous

150
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 3: about that, but like you've got to assume, at the

151
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 3: very least, we're going to be a little bit better.

152
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 3: And the throwing categories were last years. I think our

153
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 3: defense is gonna be really good.

154
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think he'll be really good too.

155
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 1: Yeah.

156
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 3: Have you met him before?

206
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like we were talking about wrestling, and wrestling is

207

209
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,520

210
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 2: for real.

211
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna ask too, how much you think

212
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: like wrestling played into that. It's like, because you're right, Like,

213
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: you go out there, it's one on one, the win

214
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 1: is on you, the loss is on you, right, and

215
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: you being as competitive as you were, like learning that

216
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 1: about you being number one in the nation growing up,

217
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: Like he was hitting the circuits like the Triple Crown,

218
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 1: Tulsa Reno. We were chopping it up pretty good because

219
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: I had no clue that he that he had a

220
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: bag like that been wrestling. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're finding

221
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: common friends, common people that we have in common.

222
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 3: Did he ever come across Cody?

223
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: No, because he was like, how was your brother? I

224
00:09:58,080 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: asked how he was? He was like twenty three. I

225
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: was like, oh, yeah, this about a decade ago. But yeah,

226
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, Cody, how we won senior nationals?

227
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: And he's like again, he was a stud wrestler, so

228
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: he understands. He understands the respect there. Yeah, he gets

229
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: the game.

230
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,079
Speaker 3: You talked about being like number one of the nation

231
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 3: from fourth to seventh grade high school? Did you keep

232
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 3: wrestling all the way through?

233
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 2: No, I really like took a year off eighth grade year.

234
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't. I knew I loved I love football,

235
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 2: not wrestling, so I was really just focusing on football.

236
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 2: And then I had no offers, but I and I

237
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 2: still had a partial scholarship to unc H Northern Colorado.

238
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 2: And then after that, I was like, no, I'm still

239
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 2: in the state of football. Walked on in Juco.

240
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: So you had a partial for wrestling Northern Colorado and

241
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 1: you opted to go to Juco rode in football just

242
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: because you loved it more.

243
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 2: Walk on football, dude.

00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 3: People are going People always talk about how, like, you know,

245
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 3: you look at a guy like Cam Woard zero offers

246
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 3: out of high school, he's now the first overall pick.

247
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,599
Speaker 3: When you are going your freshman through senior year of

248
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 3: high school and you're putting out there every single week,

249
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 3: you're you're obsessed with football, you love it. I'm assuming

250
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 3: you're the same intellity you do now, Like what level

251
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 3: of frustration is coming to you when you're seeing other

252
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 3: quarterbacks probably in the same state as you'd been, Like, Bro,

253
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 3: I am better than him. Why are they offering these

254
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 3: cat instead of me? Like talk about like yeah, that

255
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 3: mind frame and all that things, because there are cats

256
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:18,839
Speaker 3: right now that are listening to this podcast that are

257
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 3: probably in the same exact situation. Like I feel like,

258
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 3: am I just delusional? I swear to God I'm better

259
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 3: than these other guys?

260
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you see it all the time. And then

261
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 2: you go to camps too, and you're putting balls like

262
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 2: in way better spots and this kid's like a four

263
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 2: star and you're like, what the how is that kid

264
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 2: a four star? You know what I mean? But like

265
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 2: you don't want to play or hey either and like

266
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 2: go to coaching, but yo, what the Like why you

267
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 2: got offering this kid and not me? But like at

268
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 2: the same time, like the cream rises at the top

269
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 2: every time.

270
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: So what was the journey like when you were in Juco,

271
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: because I want to say that there was a story

272
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: that they were kind of briefing us on that you

273
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: were still you know, not having any offers. Did you

274
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: go to the JUCO National Championship. Yeah, so there's another

275
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: quarterback there. They've played against that. Yeah.

276
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: This is why I liked JUCO two because like the

277
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 2: coaches there, there's a lot of politics in like D one. Now,

278
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 2: if who gets paid more is gonna play and JUCO

279
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 2: do matter if you're a five star, no star coaches

280
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 2: trying to make it out too, so it's best player

281
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 2: on the field all times. And so I transferred in

282
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 2: with this four star and it was me versus four star,

283
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 2: and I legitimately beat out a four star. That's when

284
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 2: I knew stars don't mean nothing. And then took it over.

285
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 2: And then the next year we won the national championship

286
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 2: and then I finally got I had three offers. I

287
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 2: had Jackson State where Dion was New Mexico State, and

288
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: then Saint Francis and.

289
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,679
Speaker 1: The New Mexico State one because that's where you opted

290
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: to go. Was the quarterback you were facing in that

291
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: national title game. He was an offered kid from New

292
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: Mexico State. You ball out, they end up flipping.

293
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: So our head coach, coach Kill and coach beck Aer

294
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: offensive coordinator, were at Hooters in Las Cruses, New Mexico

295
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 2: they told me the story, and they're at Hooters having

296
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 2: to be or whatever. They're hammered, and they're watching the

297
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 2: game the night before they offered the other kid that

298
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 2: we're about to play against, and my OC knows I

299
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: kind of like get fired up about that stuff. So

300
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 2: he comes to my room. He's like, hey, they offered

301
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 2: the other kid, don't worry about it, just play better

302
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 2: than him. Tomorrow. That went out there. I had like

303
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 2: three touchdowns, two hundred and seventy yards probably like eighty

304
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 2: rushing beat him like thirty one fourteen or something. And

305
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: then the next day I got a call from coach

306
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 2: Kill like I was offered. They pulled his scholarship and he.

307
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 3: Told you they pulled this kid scholarship.

308
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, they told me like the exact story.

309
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,719
Speaker 3: Right, yeah, And were you okay this? No, I'm thinking

310
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 3: about it later down the road, Like what was about

311
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 3: coach Kill? Was it really at the time just like, yo,

312
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 3: they offered it the biggest school, I'm going to go there?

313
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 3: Or was there already a relationship kind of intact with

314
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 3: coach Kill?

315
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 2: No, I was thinking about going to Jackson State. But

316
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 2: Dion was so real. He was like, hey, you like

317
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 2: you're not putting this ain't a fifty to fifty. My

318
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: son's playing regardless, And he said that, yeah yeah, and.

319
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 3: He's even if you were better than even if.

320
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 2: You're better, like, my son's playing regardless. He's like, we're

321
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: looking for a backup. It's like if you want to

322
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 2: come here and be back of him. And I'm thinking

323
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 2: my head, like, I know, fucking back up, you know

324
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 2: what I mean? So I was like, I'm not going

325
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 2: to Saint Francis because I can't go to Lead from there.

326
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: So I was thinking, ship in New Mexico State is

327
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: my only option?

328
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: Damn. What was it like getting recruited by Dion?

329
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 2: It was pretty cool. It was short, it was short,

330
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 2: but he was real. That's what I like.

331
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, that is that is That's awesome.

332
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Dion Sander's sitting there, and for him

333
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 3: to sit there with all the s Sander stuff going on,

334
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 3: he falls in the draft of the fifth round and

335
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 3: essentially you look back five six years ago. He's like, hey, diego, like,

336
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 3: we'd love to have you, but like you'll be holding

337
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 3: a clipboard because no matter what my son's wanting, Yeah,

338
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 3: even if you're throwing dots Yeah, and obviously the wrong

339
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 3: guy to tell that too.

340
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. Another good trip on his shoulder, right, like you

341
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: got a lie? Yeah, less truthful production.

342
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 2: Just keep the mic close to.

343
00:14:55,640 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 1: The production when you go go to New Mexico State.

344
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 1: Remind me, is this when the world was starting to

345
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: open up with transferring in Nio. Yeah?

346
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 2: No, it was the year before, so it might have

347
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 2: been twenty twenty one, twenty twenty two.

348
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I'm asking, because I'm thinking, I think it's.

349
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty two, so and I just started creeping up.

350
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: So you're you're probably thinking, Juco, this is probably the

351
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: best route so far with New Mexico State. If I

352
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: ball out here, I can get to a better program.

353
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: Were you even thinking that? Yeah?

354
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 2: No, uh, I was thinking, shit, Well, I lived in

355
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 2: New Mexico my whole life, so it was like I

356
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 2: wanted to play against the Lobos and that's our arrival

357
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 2: school and the Lobos. The first year I was in

358
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 2: now at the lineup playing with this other kid, and

359
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 2: the only game I did not get to play was

360
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 2: against the Lobos. So the next year I was like,

361
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 2: this is money game played against the Lobos. There's a

362
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 2: little story about it that before the year I pissed

363
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 2: on their lobo, like in the mid in the midfield

364
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: of their indoor and like before the game, no one

365
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 2: said anything about it, and they were using it as

366
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 2: fuel and they thought they were going to beat us

367
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: and then be like use it against me after, you

368
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 2: know what I mean? Anyway, when in there wiped them out,

369
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 2: the head coach was all sad and stuff, but I

370
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 2: really had something against them because they didn't recruit me

371
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 2: either out of Juco and I want a national championship.

372
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 2: They were still losing and or at a high school.

373
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: So it was like real life like beef with the coaches.

374
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: It was personal for you.

375
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you tail those old as time. Yeah, Like

376
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 3: I'm from this state, I want to go to this school.

377
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 3: I'm assuming you want to go to Lobo. Yeah, and

378
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 3: then they don't offer.

379
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: It's like show you, Yeah, no, I gotta go piss

380
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: on their loan. What trans the oldest time?

381
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 4: Yeah?

382
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 3: What conversations had to take place or what went through

383
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 3: your brain where you're like, you know what, I don't

384
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 3: know how to get these boys. I'm gonna urinate on

Speaker 1: Before you answer that question, what was your strategy? I

387
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: thought it would be funny.

388
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 3: Before you answer that question, I have a question for

413
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 3: The news network of New Mexico.

414
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 1: Yep, they jumped all over that shit as hell.

Speaker 2: ten fourteen something that Okay.

418
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: When does it start to sink in or like when

419
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: does the conversations in thought process start to happen that

420
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: I can go somewhere else now.

421
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:42,239
Speaker 2: So what happened was at New Mexico State, we were

422
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 2: two and three, ended up ten and three. So like

423
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 2: by game we're like on a win streak and we're

424
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: about to go to the conference championship and stuff, and

425
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 2: so like before that, like a game before when we're

426
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 2: like nine and three, my coach gets in my ear like, hey,

427
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 2: I got I got someone calling me from a power

428
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: for school. You'd really like it. I want you to

429
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 2: come with me when the season is over. It's like,

430
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 2: all right, bet, like this is my opportunity, you know.

431
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 2: And so he he's doing his thing, and then it's

432
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 2: our offensive coordinator. So our offensive coordinator at the end

433
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 2: of the season leaves and he's like, all right, I'm

434
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 2: going to Vandy, and so he wanted me to come

435
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,680
Speaker 2: with them, but coach Kills still out in Mexico State.

436
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 2: Then coach Kill a week later decides to retire, and

437
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 2: then I was like, okay, well if I hire the

438
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 2: defensive coordinator, then I'll stay. Didn't hire him. That was

439
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 2: my sign later, So.

440
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: If New Mexico State were to hire the DC, you

441
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: would have stayed.

442
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 2: I would have stayed.

443
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, what was about the DC that you really they

444
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 3: got to hire this guy?

445
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 2: He was real. He wasn't pay me the money I wanted. Okay,

446
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 2: and uh he was like he was the one who, like,

447
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 2: our defense is really good in Mexico State. So I

448
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 2: was thinking, okay, well we could win here and then

449
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 2: there's like a chance like how Boys State went to

450
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 2: the playoffs, like that we'd be that team that whole

451
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 2: team was freaking stacked, Like we got we got Eli,

452
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 2: we got meet Eli, MK Trent. Well, these are just

453
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,040

455
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 2: dogs on the team. We got like seven of the

456
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 2: guys from New Mexico State team on the Vannerbilt team

457
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 2: and was.

458
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 3: There a situation where you were possibly gonna go be

459
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 3: a part of the wolf pack Nevada.

460
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:29,360
Speaker 2: I committed to Nevada.

461
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 3: So this is while you're in New Mexico State going

467
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 2: I really didn't know how to read a defense when

468
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,479
Speaker 2: I was at New Mexico State, and I'm like just

469
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 2: penciling in, like just meeting with the offensive coordinators how

470
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:54,360
Speaker 2: they how they uh read the defense, you know, middle close, middle, open, blitz,

471
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,919
Speaker 2: how they call. And I'm just taking little like details

472
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 2: away from these offensive coordinators just in case I do

473
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 2: go back to Vandy, like how to clean stuff up?

474
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 1: Okay. And this when you were looking and taking business

475
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: and thinking about Vandy was coach Kill had he not

476
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: retired yet?

477
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 2: So he so he retired, And then I was like,

478
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 2: because Coach Kill is like basically kind of like my dad,

479
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 2: and so like when he retired, I was like, you know,

480
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 2: I'm just going to Nevada, Like Nevada. I really like Nevada.

481
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 2: That like coach Choke And then I commit that night

482
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 2: and I called coach Beck, who's offensive coordinator of Bandy,

483
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 2: and I'm like, hey, like, I'm committed to Nevada, Like

484
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 2: I appreciate you guys. He's like, wait, wait, wait, I

485
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,120
Speaker 2: got someone to call you. Coach Kill calls me, tell

486
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 2: me he's coming out of retirement to be basically just

487
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 2: be on the Vanderbilt staff and just take care of

488
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 2: the offense. So then my mom was like, yeah, you're

489
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 2: gonna go to Bandy. So that yeah, I'm going to Bandy.

490
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:49,640
Speaker 3: And have you been to Vandy at this point yet?

491
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 5: No?

492
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 2: It never took a visit.

493
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 3: So did you have no idea about Nashville, Tennessee or

494
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 3: the area or nothing like that? You know what you

495
00:21:54,760 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 3: saw SEC and Conference? I gotta get there? What's you

496
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 3: throw in there? Right?

497
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 2: Are you good?

498
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 3: God? What did I say something?

499
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 2: Do you know the three conmerces of the NFL, A

500
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 2: f C, NFC and SEC.

501
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 3: But the two last national champions were from the Big Ten?

502
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 5: Right?

503
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: But how are you gonna?

504
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 2: But is there more in the Big Ten or in SEC?

505
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: College football has to kind.

506
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 3: Of play out like the NL is established a level

507
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 3: playing field that we all we all sit here, we

508
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 3: all everybody can pay players now, right, everybody can pay players,

509
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 3: not just one because you're right, it is a f C,

510
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 3: NFC and SEC, and we're talking about pay checks. But

511
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 3: now that everybody can pay everybody, it's like, okay, now

512
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 3: it's just a f C NFC and then the rest

513
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 3: of college football.

514
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 2: So do you think the Big Ten has a higher

515
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 2: percentage of winning it this year? The SEC, the.

516
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: Big Ten, Big Ten, the national title?

517
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 3: Yeah?

518
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, big?

519
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely.

520
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 2: I mean, listen, you guys about on the back what

521
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 2: you guys know, Yeah, is that double?

522
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 3: Oh that's more than double. But if you look at

523
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 3: the recency like that, So those forty three national championships,

524
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 3: how many of those came after and I al started.

525
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 3: That's that's the question you got to ask because the SEC, ya,

526
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 3: you guys would have national treatment. You guys are paying

527
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 3: seven figures to players.

528
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 2: It's probably when I was in it's probably two and two.

529
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 3: I don't think it is.

530
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, two and two. You're saying that didn't pay players.

531
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 1: I know we were there. This is a clean conference,

532
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,360
Speaker 1: clean conference, high character conference.

533
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 2: No do that?

534
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 3: I mean as far as I know, two and two.

535
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 2: As far as I and two.

536
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 3: Right, two and two, and the last two have been.

537
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 2: If we were having this podcast in twenty twenty two,

538
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 2: I would said the last two have been in the SEC.

539
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,679
Speaker 3: But we're not right. If we were, if if this

540
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 3: is nineteen twelve, we've been talking about how the Titanic

541
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 3: sunk a couple of months ago. Like what are we

542
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,920
Speaker 3: talking about? Like if I could go back in time,

543
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 3: I would invest in Netflix, but like we're just yeah, exactly,

544
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,400
Speaker 3: we're living in the now. Brother, we can talk about

545
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 3: crazy shit.

546
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: So, speaking of since the NIL era, give us your

547
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 1: first run in the NIL game, because clearly you had

548
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 1: stuff going on with either stay in New Mexico State.

549
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: I want to go to Nevada. Now I'm going to

550
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: commit to Vandy. So your first crack in the NIL game.

551
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 2: First cracking the NIL game. I was getting paid fourteen

552
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 2: hundred in New Mexico State, and I was per month

553
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 2: for the year, per month, okay, And I was pissed

554
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 2: because Eli Stowers was getting three thousand a month and

555
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 2: he played tight end and I played quarterback.

556
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: So your piss is on your own team. This is

557
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: the internal locker room, this.

558
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 2: Internal locker man, fuck that, like I need to go harder,

559
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 2: you know what I mean?

560
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: Yeah?

561
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 2: And then it all worked.

562
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: And then when Nevada's recruiting you, like, what are they

563
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 1: telling you?

564
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 2: Am I allowed to say that?

565
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,439
Speaker 1: I think? Is he not? Why wouldn't he be?

566
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 3: I think? So we could double check. But essentially, when

567
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 3: you are in the transfer portal, people come to you

568
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 3: and they're like, we could pay you this.

569
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, right, like they like they they everything you

570
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 2: hear on the internet.

571
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: I don't even know what's on the internet. Yeah, it's

572
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 1: it's like when so for example, Gryce Underwood.

573
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 3: So there's a four year, ten point two million.

574
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: Right right, right, you learned that stuff, but it's not

575
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 1: so you know, candid that you understand what everybody makes

576
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: in the NFL. So it's more of like you're saying,

577
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 1: it's more storytelling. So now that you're at Vanderbilt a

578
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 1: couple of years removed from it, I'm just I'm truly curious,

579
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: like when you're like a new guy in that circuit,

580
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: like what those conversations are actually like and if they're real,

581
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 1: if some of some of it's fake. You feel like

582
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: you get lied to and just even understanding that you

583
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: had a tied end on your team that was making

584
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: more than you, And it's like gotta chip on your

585
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 1: shoulder because that' stuff that everybody talks about but you

586
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: don't really understand until year and it's like, oh, that

587
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 1: is a real thing. So I'm truly asking, not on

588
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: like a gotcha moment, I'm just like, what were these conversations,

589
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 1: like when you're on a lower level, how much of

590
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: that weighs into the impact of you actually going to

591
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: that school because just.

592
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 3: With things in respective when Will and I put in college,

593
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 3: you talk about making fourteen hundred, Like I think I

594
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 3: got twelve hundred dollars a month.

595
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, we were in on a SKLLI check.

596
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, and just a blanket statement. These are conversations that

597
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,360
Speaker 6: he had with people completely separate from any universities.

598
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, that's.

599
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 3: A great insurance pose because we're not here to get anybody.

600
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:20,400
Speaker 5: Yeah.

601
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: Uh.

602
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 2: I would just say like, well, coming from that fourteen

603
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,199
Speaker 2: hundred to like these other schools were offering me like

604
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 2: a like a car houses in like big time money.

605
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 2: It's like holy shit, you know, like.

606
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: Like that even with like Nevada and when you're coming

607
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 1: out of New Mexico. Yeah, yeah, yeah, damn.

608
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 2: And so like obviously this last year I didn't go

609
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 2: into portal or anything because I knew where I want

610
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 2: to stay. The most important thing to me is like

611
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 2: playing time and then obviously winning a national championship when

612
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 2: we got the guys to go do it. So I

613
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 2: would never leave these guys.

614
00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: So New Mexico, when you're thinking about Nevada, Vandy, is

615
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: there an amount of money that you stay at New

616
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 1: Mexico State? Like does it come down to Obviously there's

617
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: other factors, going with your coaches, going with a coach

618
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 1: kill who seems like a father figure to you, Yeah,

619
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: I'm sure they probably get a little bit.

620
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 2: That was priceless. Count that was priceless. Of like them

621
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 2: obviously taking me into Mexico State, That's like, that's priceless.

622
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 2: And then I would have stayed at New Mexico State

687
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 1: When you go to Vandy get in the Nashville for

688
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: the first time, You're talking all your new teammates, your

689
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: new coaches. They obviously brought in another quarterback who was

690
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 1: making more money than you. Like, what was your you

691
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 1: know first not like welcome to the NFL moment or

692
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: like welcome to the SEC, but you feel like you're

693
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 1: in a different league than you were in New Mexico State.

694
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 2: Uh, I don't know if I ever had one. Let

695
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 2: me think, shoot, yeah, I never really had one. I said,

696
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 2: haven't had my welcome to So.

697
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 3: When you get to practice your first practice fumming in

698
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 3: New Mexico State, go to vanderbel and SEC school. The

699
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 3: speed wasn't different to you. Nothing was different to you.

700
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 2: No, I thought I was. I felt pretty good the

701
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 2: whole time, and then especially like taking on those trips,

702
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 2: like I was just studying the game a lot more.

703
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: But I would say, like maybe the workouts were like

704
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 2: a little bit more intense. But I think our locker

705
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 2: room was or our weight room was bigger at in

706
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 2: Mexico State, so it just gets hotter and the humidity.

707
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, were you second or where were you on the

708
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 1: depth chart when you first got here?

709
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 2: In my mind or other people's mind, in other.

710
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 3: People's mind and other people on the whiteboard when you

711
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 3: walk into the quarterback meeting room where you see your

712
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 3: thing at.

713
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 2: So I obviously I knew the offensive coordinator and he

714
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 2: never put us like one above the other. But I

715
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 2: knew I was gonna win the job. Other people thought

716
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 2: like maybe the other kid was going to win. But

717
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 2: it was like you turn on the tape, it's not

718
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 2: in day.

719
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 3: How quickly did you know? Because like, this kid's getting

720
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 3: paid more. You didn't know that at the time, but

721
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 3: you figure out he's getting paid more. You guys want

722
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 3: to spring practice. Obviously you're confident, but you're seeing this

723
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 3: kid throw. Was it very quickly realized?

724
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: Okay? It was like it was like, oh yeah, it's

725
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 2: it's beat. But then it was like, okay, I need

726
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 2: to renegotiate my contract if I'm going to be playing

727
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 2: over this kid. You know what I mean? Yeah, but

728
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 2: you can't. Yeah, you can't really do that in the

729
00:31:59,560 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 2: n C.

730
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 1: How do you balance all that mentally, like not letting

731
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: your ego take over too much? Like when that stuff

732
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: is coming.

733
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 2: Up, Shoot, it's like, if I really want it, then

734
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 2: I go to the league. Yeah, I'm gonna get paid

735
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 2: more in the league than in college.

736
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: We have a team eighty years caid, he sit on

737
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: the back. You want to hand him a Mike cad.

738
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,959
Speaker 1: When did you know it was gonna be he Diego

739
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 1: was gonna win the job? Was it as quick as

740
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: he was realizing it?

741
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, it was pretty quick. And as an oldligneman, you

742
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 7: get real close to your quarterback. I mean everybody knows

743
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 7: and I think it was honestly during summer workouts and stuff,

744
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 7: just we had a you know, you're you're holding arms

745
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 7: with everybody for team bonding, doing lunges across the field

746
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 7: and everyone we're all a new team, we're all trying

747
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 7: to figure out who's talking, and Diego gets out in

748
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 7: front of everyone's like like everyone shut the fuck up,

749
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 7: like I'm talking right now, like you guys, this is

750
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 7: what we're gonna do. So then that's when it was like,

751
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 7: all right, like this is over before it starts, kind of,

752
00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 7: but we knew and like the first time I met

753
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 7: i Go, he had blonde bone.

754
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: Tips in his hair, and.

755
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 7: This kid's either going to be insane or we're a

756
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 7: little fucked. Yeah, you know, its quick as he knew it.

757
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

758
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 3: What's the relationship looks like from both of your perspectives

759
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 3: of you with this other quarterback who comes in essentially

760
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 3: thinks he's gonna start, and then you come in. You're

761
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 3: in team meetings or everyone's locked arms doing lunges, you know,

762
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 3: like this shit's not good enough or whatever the speeches

763
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 3: are you you seeing kind of like little friction or

764
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 3: you pretty cool to the other quarterback.

765
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 2: There's there's like that competitive friction that you have with

766
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 2: like everyone that you go into a new room with.

767
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 2: But uh, I guess I think he was like like

768
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 2: one time. I'll tell you this story. One time I

769
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 2: cracked a joke and maybe it was an inappropriate joke

770
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 2: and he was loving it when like he was projected

771
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 2: to start, you know what I mean. And I cracked

772
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 2: the same joke when I was starting, and then he

773
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 2: like texted the coaches about and was like hey, like diego,

774
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 2: that was an inappropriate joke by him, Like he needs

775
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:05,959
Speaker 2: to say sorry. And then like I had to call

776
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 2: him and and he's like, bro, that was not cool,

777
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 2: this and that, and it was just like all right.

778
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 3: So there's two phases of that question. One, you recycle jokes.

779
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, if they're good.

780
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, we recycled joke. No, no, no, I'm around and

781
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 1: uh and to like to catch right there.

782
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 3: You know what my my my mind went to, was

783
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 3: you important oy a couple of years ago because you

785
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 3: at the Super Bowl you did the same thing. He

786
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 3: was like on your asst recycling jokes.

787
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: It was the same day I was. I went over

788
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: made a joke I forget what it was, but about

789
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: like a jacket or something. Yeah, and one of the

790
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 1: boys was saying about me and they laughed. They've also

791
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: kind of heard the joke, but when the boys laughed,

792
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, I'm gonna take it to a

793
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 1: bigger that was gonna work. Yeah, want to have more people,

794
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 1: you know, this joke solid?

795
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

796
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 2: I recycled the game with the women.

797
00:34:53,080 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm some game with the women too. The ship works,

00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 1: like when he's spent in game. Yeah. Like And so

799
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 1: then Dave obviously jumps on. It's oh, you're recycling jokes.

00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: It's like, that's that's.

801
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,799

802
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 3: words in the same sentence before ever again. But that's

803
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 3: basically where I got that. What when you weren't starting

804
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 3: what was a joke?

805
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:22,440

Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like a quarterback. Oh here, First off, dude,

815
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 3: I love how open you are because you don't get

816
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 3: a lot of quarters but I don't want you to

817
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 3: sit in the team meeting at Vanderbilt the coach and

818
00:35:58,640 --> 00:35:59,440

Speaker 2: Now he's gone. Now he's gone. Now where's he at?

821
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 2: He's at Utah.

822
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:05,879
Speaker 3: I mean people could look this up where he's he's

823
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 3: at the utes, Like people even know where this guy is.

824
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 3: That's crazy, that's crazy. That's fucking insane. It's uh started

825
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,800
Speaker 3: starting spring camp. You're second the depth chart through in

826
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 3: the depth chart.

827
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,319
Speaker 2: Uh, there was like no depth chart, like we were

828
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 2: rotating between three quarterbacks though open competition competition.

829
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 3: We're all fann and all of you guys transferring from

830
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 3: other schools to Vanderbilt or the transfer there is that

831
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 3: kid still there?

832
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's actually really talented. He's got a strong arm,

833
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 2: really good. Yeah. I think if he went to like

834
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 2: more of a pro style, like he'd popped more. He's

835
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 2: really good.

836
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 3: So why why do you think? Have you had that

837
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 3: conversation with him? Like yeah, he's like, hey man, maybe

838
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 3: you go and do this. And what year is he?

839
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 2: Yeah he's uh he has two more years left. But

840
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 2: that Vanderbilt degree is something. Well, yeah that's really smart kid.

841
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, going like in into the year this year,

842
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: were you aware that you were going to get an

843
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,279
Speaker 1: extra year at first? Like, what are you hearing? You

844
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: have a you have a legendary year Vanderbilt. You guys

845
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: exceeded all expectations. You're having a hell of a run.

846
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,320
Speaker 1: Like are you talking to NFL? Are you thinking NFL?

847
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 1: Are you thinking I want to get an extra year?

848
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 1: There could be a possibility? Like what was that process

849
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:26,959
Speaker 1: like for you at the end of the season, looking

850
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: at the neck this year that we're in.

851
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 2: Now, Yeah, well we beat we beat uh, so we're

852
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 2: tuned too. Then we beat Bam, and then we beat

853
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 2: Kentucky and then like Kentucky game, I got kind of

854
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 2: hurt that big motherfucker Dion Walker just sat on me

855
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 2: and it was like all right, and then I'm kind

856
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,319
Speaker 2: of like straggling out the whole year. And so when

857
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 2: it was brought up to me that I could play

858
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 2: possibly play another year, I was like, oh, yeah, let's

859
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 2: do it. So then I just it got filed and

860
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 2: had a really good lawyer and everything worked out.

861
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,239
Speaker 1: It wasn't like were you you weren't even considering the

862
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 1: potential or maybe looking around for the next level yet.

863
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 2: No, I was I was asking, like coach Lee, like

864
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 2: about agents and things like that and what the you know,

865
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,840
Speaker 2: scouts are saying and what they wanted to see. But

866
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 2: it was just I think, in my favorite to get

867
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,320
Speaker 2: two years under the SEC under my belt and then no,

868
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 2: we win the national Championship and I win the Heisman,

869
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,280
Speaker 2: then there's no there's no reason why I don't get drafted.

870
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,799
Speaker 1: First round based on the feedback that you heard from

871
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: the next level, Like what chip on your shoulder do

872
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 1: you have? Now? Like what what things were you hearing?

873
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 2: They said, I need to get uh maybe better as

874
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 2: a passer, say in the pocket, don't leave as much,

875
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,680
Speaker 2: and so I need to work the pocket more.

876
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 3: Okay, do you agree with that criticism or do you

877
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:51,360
Speaker 3: think that well, I.

878
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 2: Could get better at everything. But I mean we had

879
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 2: a lot of a lot of play calls to you know,

880
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 2: roll outside the pocket for you know, they got the

881
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,360
Speaker 2: like Dylan Stewart, off the edges is really.

882
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,439
Speaker 1: Good, James Pearce is off the edge is really good.

883
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:12,399
Speaker 2: So I think doing little things to make sure those

884
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 2: guys get off my back and then just let me

885
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 2: make plays that ac like that's where I'm best at

886
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 2: making plays.

887
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. Improv Yeah, improvisation on the field, yep. When did

888
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 3: you realize that you had that that capability to take

889
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 3: the ex's and o's of a play. It's drawn up

890
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 3: a certain way in a whiteboard, but you can extend

891
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 3: plays and figure it all.

892
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 2: Out little league football. I have some pretty nice tape

893
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 2: in little league football. Nasty, Yeah, some nasty tapes. But

894
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 2: I think that's when I figured it out. And then

895
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 2: just having the confidence that I do and then installing

896
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 2: it in like the guys around me, and then you

897
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 2: become unstoppable.

898
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: How as a guy who's pissing them on a logo

899
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 1: back in New Mexico State and you have, you know,

900
00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,080
Speaker 1: the stories of the ago and all the fun one

901
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: that you have on the field, shit talking and everything else.

902
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 1: How do you feel like you've approached maybe this year,

903
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 1: whether it's a little bit differently because you could be

904
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 1: going to the professional level and you being a little

905
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: bit more conscious about everything that you're doing. Do you

906
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 1: feel like you've had, you know, a moment to where

907
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,960
Speaker 1: you've kind of reflected on things and thinking like, hey,

908
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: the act is awesome, it's a lot of fun, but

909
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: I also got to kind of put my head down

910
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:22,840
Speaker 1: to work a little bit more because it is a

911
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: bit of an uphill battle at times.

912
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 2: Right. Yeah, I've actually done a lot of reflecting on

913
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 2: how I could get better. One is being in the

914
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 2: training room more. I'm always around the facility. Like I

915
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 2: get there. I wake up at five every morning, wake

916
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 2: my bed, you know, pray to God, and then like

917
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 2: I'm in the facility by about six fifteen, and I

918
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,800
Speaker 2: don't lead to about six. So I'm just doing everything

919
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,760
Speaker 2: I can possible to stay healthy for the season. Another

920
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 2: thing too, was like sometimes when I say I would party,

921
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 2: I mean that I would have a good time, you know,

922
00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:00,080
Speaker 2: laugh with my friends. I don't I rarely drink, be

923
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 2: lying if I said I didn't drink, but I rarely drink.

924
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 2: And so like those staying up late affecting me for Sunday,

925
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 2: which roll over to Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and then it

926
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 2: was just like a trickle effect. Yeah, so like I

927
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,879
Speaker 2: feel like, uh, Sunday, once I get home after the game,

928
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 2: I needed, you know, stretch, get in my little thing

929
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 2: after the game on Saturday, and then be ready to

930
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 2: go for the next week.

931
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's gotta be hard to when you're when you're

932
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 3: doing things at Vanderbilt that haven't been done in a

933

Speaker 3: That was where I was getting good and go with that,

936
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,439
Speaker 3: Like you beat Alabama and you take the goal post

937
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 3: and you marsh that thing all the way down to

938
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,520

942
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,239

Speaker 2: tell you guys the story of how crazy they are.

947
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:05,759
Speaker 2: But like they were like, bro, hurry that ship up,

948
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 2: like we got a fucking bounce. We they they literally

949
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,920
Speaker 2: Sunday the day after they literally opened the bar and

950
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 2: ended the bar like until it was closed, and it

951
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 2: was just like, bro, these guys are wild, you know

952
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 2: what I mean? So like, obviously you want to join

953
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 2: them in stuff, but you got responsibilities. So that's what

954
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 2: makes it Like, that's what makes it hard. Obviously they're

955
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 2: only in town for like a few days and then

956
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 2: they go back. Yeah, but I mean we had some

957
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:31,560

00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: How was that night? Kay, you can talk about it too.

959
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:38,000

00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: them down and the city is just absolutely on fire.

961
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 2: Uh we all went to Broadway.

962
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,839
Speaker 1: Let's pretend we're all retired. Just pretend we're all retired. Sure, yeah,

963
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:52,120

Speaker 3: You get the twelve yard game. The game is over, games,

968
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,759
Speaker 3: manor beilt. Fans are on the fields. They du Hey,

00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 3: let's live in reality. Like you guys are playing away

970
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 3: games at home, and that's changing because of you guys.

971
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:18,719
Speaker 3: Like people are juicy fucking.

972
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 2: Look at that kid he's getting after right there. I

974
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 3: This kid he's got the same size legs as me.

975
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 3: He's getting after it. Bro. But I'm just saying, like,

976
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 3: these fans storm the field. You are you are now

977
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:34,279
Speaker 3: probably realizing like we've done something for the first time ever.

978
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is incredible as Foster. You win just

979
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 1: a fucking massive game. The vibes are absolutely psychotic, psychotic.

980
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 2: I really didn't, I really didn't. It didn't hit me

981
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,759
Speaker 2: until like a week a week after like like maybe

982
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,440
Speaker 2: we have to beat Kentucky or something like. It really

983
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 2: didn't hit me until then. But that night was it

984
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 2: was jumping for sure. I mean we we went all

985
00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 2: went to barstool. The whole top was rented out for us.

986
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 2: You know, we stood up so late that night and

987
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 2: then they thought we're gonna lose to Kentucky. Beat them

988
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 2: the next week too, but it that's that's when I

989
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 2: got hurt. But I feel like God kind of gave

990
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,320
Speaker 2: me a signal right there. It was like, hey, you

991
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 2: can't just go out and party when you have a

992
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:20,839
Speaker 2: big wins, like I'm gonna give you more big wins,

993
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 2: just you can't part like that. And so that that's

994
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,400
Speaker 2: like for this year, you know what I mean, that's

995
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 2: why he gave me another year. Yeah, so it's get

996
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 2: it right this time.

997
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 1: I was the experience from from your vantage point, because

998
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 1: you know, offensive linemen, they're like, we're getting the fuck

999
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 1: we're getting after this.

1000
00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 7: But yeah, it was good. I don't even know if

1001
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 7: he knows this, but I lasted an hour and a

1002
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 7: half at the bar, like it was a quick night

1003
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 7: for me, and that doesn't happen very often. And so

1004
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 7: I was getting after it pretty hard, but not like

1005
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 7: the field rush stuff. Like he was probably the calmest

1006
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 7: in the huddle, which is surprising. Once he got that

1007
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 7: first down, it was there was some kind of there

1008
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 7: was some antics on the field everybody knows about, but uh,

1009
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 7: we were kind of all the huddle.

1010
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:07,879
Speaker 1: About no buddy, did the shove or kicked the ball,

1011
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 1: hit the ball?

1012
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 3: We had the ball kid?

1013
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, the push in the face. And I had

1014
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 7: only played that drive, Like I sat for three and

1015
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:17,759
Speaker 7: a half hours the whole game and then got in

1016
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 7: on the on the four minute drive to get the

1017
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 7: first downs to win the game against the number one

1018
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 7: ranked team, and I was like, oh shit, like you know,

1019
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,320
Speaker 7: my knees hurt already hitting in the stance. Yeah, and

1020
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,879
Speaker 7: so all the antics whatever, he gets the first down,

1021
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,799
Speaker 7: face pushed in the ground. I kind of ran after

1022
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,759
Speaker 7: it a little bit, but like we got back in

1023
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 7: the huddle, He's like, all right, right, all right, Like

1024
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 7: we got to get this snap, We got to get

1025
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 7: this snap because it's victory, and he was the most

1026
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:46,239
Speaker 7: calm one. And then the field rush went to the

1027
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 7: locker room and everyone's like in the locker room like,

1028
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 7: all right, let's let's get out of here. We got

1029
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:52,359
Speaker 7: some stuff to handle.

1030
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, talk to me about the emotion of a

1031
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 3: field rush, Like as a player, I only had to

1032
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 3: experience that, I think one time, and that's when we

1033
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,400
Speaker 3: beat Ohio State. And it is like the most electric

1034
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 3: feeling in the entire world. When all the fans are

1035
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 3: on the field, they're jumping, they're grabbing you, they're pulling you.

1036
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,360
Speaker 3: You essentially feel like like the biggest star in the

1037
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:15,239
Speaker 3: world for a moment. Like what was that like for

1038
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 3: you guys?

1039
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:18,759
Speaker 2: It was nuts. I had all my boys there too.

1040
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:26,360
Speaker 2: I wasn't trying to lose that football right there. And

1041
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:29,480

00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 3: back to you.

00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,200

1052
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 1: What uh? What was for you your best freestyle, most

1053
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 1: memorable style play for yourself where you kind of went

1054
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,719
Speaker 1: off the went off the whiteboard and made something happen

1055
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 1: the coaches weren't expecting it. Uh.

1056
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,400
Speaker 2: At New Mexico State, we're playing against utub and it's

1057
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:26,400
Speaker 2: like two minute drill and I call my own play

1058
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 2: and I do all Berts and I'm thinking IM about

1059
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 2: to hit this seam up to Eli, but like the

1060
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 2: safety closed it, so I spin out. I'm rolling left

1061
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,920
Speaker 2: full speed. This kid comes our boy, So if we're

1062
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,359
Speaker 2: going that way, he comes back and then goes back

1063
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,160
Speaker 2: and I do like a forty yard dime on the

1064
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,400
Speaker 2: money over the shoulder and he just he just gets cracked.

1065
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:52,000
Speaker 1: Let's fucking go, dude. What kay for you? What's this

1066
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: man like in the huddle? Any moments that stand out?

1067
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, So my first play of the Alabama game like

1068
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 7: stands out to me of all of them. We're on

1069
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 7: the goal line and we're running one of our our

1070
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:10,799
Speaker 7: goal line run schemes and it's a two play scheme,

1071
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 7: so we're either running one player or the other, and

1072
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 7: we hear it because of the cadence, we know which

1073
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 7: play we're running. And it was my first play of

1074
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 7: the game. And he's tired as hell from the you know,

1075
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 7: the drive before, and so he's like.

1076
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 2: Ready break, and I was like.

1077
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 7: All right, so I kind of just followed the guy

1078
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 7: I knew I needed to follow, and uh, I think

1079
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 7: I just down blocked because I didn't know the play.

1080
00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,439
Speaker 7: But that's normally like how he is. Is normally really calm,

1081
00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 7: normally really collected, like all right, guys like got to

1082
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 7: get the first year whatever, prey this quarterback stuff. You know,

1083
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,440
Speaker 7: they got to command the huddle. But that play stands

1084
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,800
Speaker 7: out to me just because he's spitting everywhere, and you know,

1085
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:52,239

Speaker 2: it's that kid always going to be in the right spot.

1164
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:08,840
Speaker 3: Great technique, great technique.

00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, well he'll be perfect, perfect sound perfect.

1166
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 3: I will say this. I thought, man, that Asu Texas

1167
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,160
Speaker 3: game in the playoffs, I thought, as you should have

1168
00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:19,759
Speaker 3: won that game. I know they should have won that game.

1169
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 2: I don't like how people should on Quinn the Ewers us.

1170
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:23,879
Speaker 3: I don't like that either.

1171
00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 2: Quinn Hewers is a solid quarterback.

1172
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:28,919
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody was saying that we I don't

1173
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:29,879
Speaker 1: think we were shopping on Quinn.

1174
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:31,440
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, I'm just saying, like, I think

1175
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 3: he's just bringing this out of his own back. He's

1176
00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:34,440
Speaker 3: thought about this for a minute. He's like, I got

1177
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:35,239
Speaker 3: to make sure I say this.

1178
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:35,839
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1179
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 2: No, no, like he went seventh round like he should have.

1180
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 2: You got to think about Texas before Quinn, you know

1181
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:42,800
Speaker 2: what I mean, Like they were winning too many games.

1182
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 2: Then Quinn goes and now they're in the like possibly

1183
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:48,600
Speaker 2: the championship. If he doesn't get strips sacked right.

1184
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:53,040
Speaker 3: Right against a Big ten football team, here he goes.

1185
00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:54,319
Speaker 3: I'm just dude.

1186
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:55,439
Speaker 1: I mean that's a fact.

1187
00:53:55,600 --> 00:54:00,120
Speaker 3: That is the fact. Against a d ND who was

1188
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 3: drafted in the third round.

1189
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:03,640
Speaker 2: He's good. There's a lot of good players in the

1190
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:04,239
Speaker 2: Big ten too.

1191
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:09,120
Speaker 3: I don't know, there's some good ball players in this seed.

1192
00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:11,759
Speaker 3: There's no doubt about it. I'm what the main thing

1193
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 3: is is now that everybody can get paid, we definitely equalized.

1194
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:16,560
Speaker 1: There's a lot more parody in the game now.

1195
00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,880
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, it's two and two, so it's equal right now, as.

1196
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:25,680
Speaker 3: We'll find out this year. That's right, Vanderbilt twenty twenty six, right,

1197
00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:27,320
Speaker 3: I guess it would be twenty twenty six National.

1198
00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:27,840
Speaker 2: Chains in Miami.

1199
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:30,640
Speaker 1: What are your Obviously there's a lot of discussion around

1200
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:32,520
Speaker 1: the College Fable Playoff in the format, like what would

1201
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:34,680
Speaker 1: you what would be your critiques for the College Fable Playoff?

1202
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:35,840
Speaker 1: You want to see it go to sixteen.

1203
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:38,839
Speaker 2: I think that the as he's seeing, the Big ten

1204
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,880
Speaker 2: should obviously get the four bids regardless, and then they

1205
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:44,080
Speaker 2: could do whatever they want from there.

1206
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,920
Speaker 1: And you like, you like how they structured it as like,

1207
00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: you know, if you win your conference, you don't automatically

1208
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:51,440
Speaker 1: get a by They're kind of just they're kind of

1209
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 1: seeded it true now right?

1210
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:53,880

01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:14,200
Speaker 1: came prime or up up at Bourbon Steak. I'm trying

1333
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 1: to work for.

1334
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,080
Speaker 2: You right now. Can I told you other schools were

1335
01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 2: offering me a four million, not Vandy? You said, what

1336
01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:23,280
Speaker 2: other schools are offering me four million? Not bandy? Dude?

1337
01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:28,560
Speaker 1: Hey legit? So we ever flirting with the idea leaving Vanderbilt?

1338
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 2: No, I never flirted with it.

1339
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:32,400
Speaker 1: Maybe for a moment, one.

1340
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,040
Speaker 3: Moment you saw the number.

1341
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:36,720
Speaker 2: I mean the number. The number is great, like the

1342
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:41,360
Speaker 2: numbers are great, but like winning is is more important

1343
01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,040
Speaker 2: to me than anything, and we get the squad to

1344
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:43,400
Speaker 2: go do it.

1345
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 1: When you're breaking it down with your agent or whoever

1346
01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:49,000
Speaker 1: your representation is, or you're talking with the coaches, how

1347
01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,040
Speaker 1: uncomfortable does it get at times? Like you you might

1348
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:53,440
Speaker 1: hear the rumors are four million, and it's like, you know,

1349
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:55,480
Speaker 1: we're all in the game of business a little bit

1350
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:58,040
Speaker 1: more now, and it's like, you want to leverage the number?

1351
01:00:58,080 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 1: How much should I try and leverage the number and

1352
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,439
Speaker 1: get to a spot that I feel comfortable? I don't

1353
01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:03,920
Speaker 1: want to piss anybody off? Like how is that going

1354
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 1: for you? Mentally? When you are in that process of potentially,

1355
01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:09,960
Speaker 1: you know, them feeling like you could potentially leave.

1356
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:13,600
Speaker 2: Right it was? It was difficult for sure, because like

1357
01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:17,200
Speaker 2: you got coach Kill and coach Beck like relying on

1358
01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:19,920
Speaker 2: you to come back, and then but it's like all

1359
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,360
Speaker 2: the money game. And then like you got other schools

1360
01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:24,640
Speaker 2: offering you four million and they don't want to pay

1361
01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:26,280
Speaker 2: you four million, but you're like all right, but like

1362
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:29,320
Speaker 2: you took a chance on me, so like I understand that,

1363
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:34,720
Speaker 2: and then freaky OUs and say something too like, uh,

1364
01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 2: they they told me the things that I wanted to

1365
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 2: hear of how they're gonna build the offense. You know

1366
01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:48,600
Speaker 2: what receivers are gonna go get. And they were telling

1367
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:50,200
Speaker 2: me like, we could pay we could pay you that,

1368
01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:52,160
Speaker 2: but we're not gonna have enough money to go get

1369
01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 2: these guys to go throw the ball around. And it

1370
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:58,080
Speaker 2: just made sense to me, Like, man, I value winning

1371
01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:00,440
Speaker 2: over anything else. So how perfect?

1372
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:02,200
Speaker 1: How well did they do going and getting some of

1373
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:03,880
Speaker 1: these pieces that they were talking to you about?

1374
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:06,320
Speaker 2: Really good? Yeah, I guess like playing with a new

1375
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 2: toy every day, you just throw the ball as far

1376
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 2: as you can't you have some fast little black kid

1377
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:12,480
Speaker 2: to just fucking catch it.

1378
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:17,120
Speaker 1: Washington Post is gonna salivate over this.

1379
01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:21,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, Washington Post, New York Times. I got him again.

1380

01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 3: a father figure to you. What about Jerry Kill? Was

1383
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:30,160
Speaker 3: like it helps you guys connect so much, And do

1384
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 3: you have like a Jerry Kill store that you're like,

1385
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:35,000
Speaker 3: this dude's the fucking man. Kate was telling me. He

1386
01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:38,160

Speaker 3: that was coach k coach Yeah, okay, okay, okay, okay.

1388
01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:44,040
Speaker 2: This guy's this guy's a nut job. Like he's just

1389
01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:46,240
Speaker 2: one of us, just the older version, you know what

1390
01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:48,240
Speaker 2: I mean. He don't care what anyone thinks about him.

1391
01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:52,520
Speaker 2: He don't care about anything. I would say New Mexico

1392
01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:54,920
Speaker 2: State when he was the head coach, like he had

1393
01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:59,040
Speaker 2: all the power in the world. Like I remember, this

1394
01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 2: is this story exact. We were in like a like

1395
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:06,080
Speaker 2: a team meeting, and after that it was like the

1396
01:03:06,120 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 2: first day of fall camp. We're getting done team meeting.

1397
01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:11,720
Speaker 2: We go out there and you know, we get done practicing.

1398
01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:14,960
Speaker 2: This kid has a full body cramp and he's like,

1399
01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 2: where's the fucking trainer at And the trainer, uh didn't

1400
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,560
Speaker 2: have ivs. They couldn't give ivs for some reason in

1401
01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:27,840
Speaker 2: Mexico State. He fired the trainer, the equipment staff, and uh,

1402
01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:30,960
Speaker 2: like one of the board of directors at New Mexico

1403
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,919
Speaker 2: State that day. And then like he was like having

1404
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,840
Speaker 2: to do he hired basically the coaches to like serve

1405
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:41,040
Speaker 2: out equipment, hired uh people just to like give out

1406
01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:43,520
Speaker 2: water and stuff. So he fired someone like on the

1407
01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 2: spot that day, first.

1408
01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 3: Day because he was catching a full body cramp. But

1409
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:47,200
Speaker 3: there's nowhere to say.

1410
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:48,360
Speaker 2: It, and there was no no one to give him

1411
01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:51,040
Speaker 2: an IV man at least.

1412
01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:52,440
Speaker 1: Have some pickle juice on you or something, you know,

1413
01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:55,880
Speaker 1: But he's just anytime I hear body cramp, I just

1414
01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:58,920
Speaker 1: think of the story of, Uh, there's a guy in

1415
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 1: the locker room who just as a joke kept a

1416
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:06,040
Speaker 1: box of condoms in the locker, and somebody's like, hey,

1417
01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:08,400
Speaker 1: why do you keep a box of condoms in the

1418
01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:10,040
Speaker 1: locker And he just looked over and he goes, You

1419
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 1: never know when somebody's gonna catch a full body cramp

1420
01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:13,320
Speaker 1: and be spas on the locker room floor.

1421
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:16,320
Speaker 2: What the fuck?

1422
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:20,720
Speaker 1: Just out of the glimpse inside of the locker room, folks.

1423
01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:23,520
Speaker 3: That is a wild story. Wild.

1424
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:27,240
Speaker 1: The full body crams are just awful when you reflect

1425
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:32,960
Speaker 1: on just your entire journey, like again, underdog story, Juco

1426
01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:36,640
Speaker 1: route no offers, small schools, go to Vanderbilt, all of

1427
01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:39,760
Speaker 1: this stuff you were talking about wrestling earlier, but overall,

1428
01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 1: like a general like a general thought, when you pull

1429
01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:44,680
Speaker 1: yourself out, what do you feel like separate you mentally

1430
01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:48,400
Speaker 1: in the details when you look back, whether it's playing

1431
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:50,840
Speaker 1: through injuries or examples you see from other guys, like

1432
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:53,440
Speaker 1: what things do you feel like have separated you mentally

1433
01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 1: to get in the spot that.

1434
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:57,560
Speaker 2: You're in now when I when I turn on the tape,

1435
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:00,960
Speaker 2: and I want people to know that I'm the you know,

1436
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:04,040
Speaker 2: the best person ever touched like the blade of grass,

1437
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:06,840
Speaker 2: Like I'm going to be the best no matter what.

1438
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:08,880
Speaker 2: When you turn on the table, it's like, Okay, this

1439
01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:11,440
Speaker 2: kid right here is the best player on the football

1440
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,720
Speaker 2: team right here, both sides of the ball. And so

1441
01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,680
Speaker 2: that's that's what I want. Is just not even be

1442
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:18,360
Speaker 2: like compared. I want to be good on it and

1443
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:20,040
Speaker 2: it's like one of the greats. Like I feel like

1444
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:24,680
Speaker 2: I have that mama mentality of three workouts a day

1445
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:26,520
Speaker 2: or else you like cheated yourself.

1446
01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:30,480
Speaker 1: When you look back and think if times were extremely

1447
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,360
Speaker 1: hard and you possibly thought I'm never quitting, but where

1448
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:35,520
Speaker 1: you doubted yourself and everything else, Like is there a

1449
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:37,840
Speaker 1: moment or a phase of life that kind of stands

1450
01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:39,400
Speaker 1: out that you fall through that you look back on

1451
01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:42,640
Speaker 1: You're like, I'm fucking happy I pushed through that moment.

1452
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:48,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Juco was hard for sure, Juco COVID. You know

1453
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:51,520
Speaker 2: there's only two people allowed in a dorm. Probably this big,

1454
01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:55,680
Speaker 2: maybe even smaller if you cut this down and you

1455
01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:59,280
Speaker 2: know it's you and your guy and it's just the struggle,

1456
01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:02,120
Speaker 2: like you weren't able to leave, no one could see you.

1457
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:06,200
Speaker 2: And then those those times were tough. You're winging at

1458
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 2: five am. But then like you think about it, like

1459
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 2: you're you're with your brothers through the grind, so it's like, cool.

1460
01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:13,080
Speaker 1: Who are you leaning on in like those times like

1461
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:15,720
Speaker 1: are you somebody who like you know, you're scrolling and

1462
01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:19,720
Speaker 1: consuming videos, you're reading something. Is it your mom? Is

1463
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 1: it your staff when you're kind of having those moments

1464
01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:23,760
Speaker 1: of hey, I need to feel like I needed some

1465
01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 1: inspiration or motivation.

1466
01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:32,960
Speaker 2: Honest truth. Uh my ex girlfriend was like, shit, she

1467
01:06:33,080 --> 01:06:36,200
Speaker 2: don't want me bet I'm gonna go harder. And it

1468
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:40,880
Speaker 2: was just like I'm super serious like in juco and

1469
01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:44,720
Speaker 2: still like to this day, Like my boy uh, my

1470
01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:46,640
Speaker 2: boys would tell you, like it was like once I

1471
01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:49,320
Speaker 2: got under that bar, it was like it was beef.

1472
01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:53,000
Speaker 2: You know, obviously not with my girlfriend, but like like

1473
01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:55,200
Speaker 2: it was like fuck, like shit, she didn't want you,

1474
01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:59,160
Speaker 2: like take that shit personal. But that's one of the

1475
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 2: reason why I go so to I.

1476
01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:05,080
Speaker 3: Feel like the mentality of the athlete, but it's taking

1477
01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:08,760
Speaker 3: whatever happens in your life that didn't necessarily go your way.

1478
01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:11,120
Speaker 3: Big ways are little ways. But it's like, all right,

1479
01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:12,400
Speaker 3: at that to the tank.

1480
01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:13,400
Speaker 1: That's true.

1481
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:14,400
Speaker 2: That's how I look at it too.

1482
01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:17,840
Speaker 1: I feel like he's got the most wrestling brain I've

1483
01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:18,400
Speaker 1: ever seen.

1484
01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:19,440
Speaker 3: A football player.

1512
01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:23,840
Speaker 2: these shots. I like you Arizona. Arizona, everyone's like right

1513
01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:24,679
Speaker 2: next to New Mexico.

1514
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:27,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's well, I mean we can the population

1515
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:30,519
Speaker 3: is like more than double, and we also have like

1516
01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:37,680
Speaker 3: a better sports state Baseball football, that's just fat. I

1517
01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:38,360
Speaker 3: mean New Mexico.

1518
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:40,599
Speaker 2: We might be better at baseball.

1519
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:41,840
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1520
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:44,320
Speaker 3: Bro, like Arizona cats play ball out there. That's a

1521
01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:46,240
Speaker 3: year round, I mean, just like New Mexico, but like

1522
01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:48,599
Speaker 3: cats come out of there. Even hockey, now we got

1523
01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:49,280
Speaker 3: hockey players.

1524
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:51,600
Speaker 2: What about wrestling? I think we might be better at

1525
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:54,479
Speaker 2: I think baseball, soccer.

1526
01:08:54,640 --> 01:09:02,160
Speaker 3: I'm not very uh I could see soccer. I'm not

1527
01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:05,040
Speaker 3: I'm not up to date on like wrestling. My wrestling

1528
01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:08,400
Speaker 3: education comes through Will Compton. Like I see that he

1529
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:10,720
Speaker 3: talks about Cody and I just I've wrestled all three times.

1530
01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:11,519
Speaker 3: I've lost every time.

1531
01:09:11,880 --> 01:09:13,640
Speaker 1: We'll be in there watching March mad It will be

1532
01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:15,760

1533
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:18,639
Speaker 1: of the wrest the years.

1534
01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:21,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, this year, So who's your favorite wrestler?

1535
01:09:22,880 --> 01:09:26,479
Speaker 1: Oh man? I mean honestly, I just root for the

1536
01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:29,840
Speaker 1: boys from Nebraska, Okay, Like I knew a lot more

1537
01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:31,920
Speaker 1: about it when when when when my brother was doing it,

1538
01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:34,080
Speaker 1: Like when we were in college together, Like Jordan Burrows

1539
01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:36,920
Speaker 1: was from Nebraska and he was like when Cody came

1540
01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:38,600
Speaker 1: in as a freshman. They were the same weight, so

1541
01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:41,160
Speaker 1: they were they were both wrestling partners and everything else.

1542
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:43,479
Speaker 1: Like James Green came a little bit after Cody. So

1543
01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:46,439
Speaker 1: that generation of wrestling is when I knew it the most.

1544
01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:49,280
Speaker 1: I don't know it as well anymore. I just enjoy

1545
01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:52,360

Speaker 3: is awesome.

1646
01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:07,200

Speaker 1: like what the fuck.

1652
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:22,600
Speaker 3: There's definitely a level of imposter syndrome, like we we

1653
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:25,600
Speaker 3: shouldn't be said this. Yeah, it really just goes down to,

1654
01:14:25,680 --> 01:14:28,840
Speaker 3: like the relationship with Dana, and you get around these people,

1655
01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:30,800
Speaker 3: you don't have like an asshole like you just try

1656
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:32,760
Speaker 3: to be as respectful as possible, but like the people

1657
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:34,720
Speaker 3: you get to sit next to in these fights and

1658
01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,519
Speaker 3: essentially network and talk to and be around like it's

1659
01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:40,719
Speaker 3: you're seeing extremely powerful people come under one roof.

1660
01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:44,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you're just like, uh, enjoying the moment of

1661
01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:47,000
Speaker 1: being that close to the fucking the fucking octagon.

1662
01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:47,280
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1663
01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:52,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, like the the you know, you hear the punches,

1664
01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:54,920
Speaker 1: you feel the punches, you just feel the entire environment.

1665
01:14:54,920 --> 01:14:56,759
Speaker 1: When the lights go off and it's just a spotlight

1666
01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 1: on the octagon. You hear the walk and you feel

1667
01:14:59,439 --> 01:15:02,479
Speaker 1: walking around the cage. It's like you feel the breathing,

1668
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:04,160
Speaker 1: you see the corners going on when they give it

1669
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 1: their corners. It's uh, it's sick man.

1670
01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:11,120
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what a really cool uh situation to

1671
01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:13,560
Speaker 3: be in is the fights at the Apex. Because the

1672
01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:15,920
Speaker 3: Apex are these up and coming fighters that are right

1673
01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 3: next to the UFC facility, but it's like quiet. You

1674
01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:22,240
Speaker 3: can hear the punches landing. You can actually hear people

1675
01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:25,560
Speaker 3: talking when you when the fights are between rounds, you

1676
01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:27,840
Speaker 3: can put a headset on and listen to what the

1677
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:30,559
Speaker 3: coaches are saying to the fighter. Yeah, what the corners

1678
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,840
Speaker 3: are talking about. Like it's a very cool, intimate setting.

1679
01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:34,400
Speaker 3: It's awesome.

1680
01:15:34,439 --> 01:15:37,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And it's like we're all fans of Joe

Speaker 1: recognize because they're at every fight, Bruce Buffer doing his

1684
01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:50,120
Speaker 1: announcements and intros. It's just it is insane being that close.

1796
01:20:27,000 --> 01:20:30,680
Speaker 3: I've been out every single day after this podcast. You're

1797
01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:31,960
Speaker 3: not gonna go toss the ball around a little bit.

1798
01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:35,400
Speaker 2: I don't know. I might get like concussed or something.

1799
01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:37,000
Speaker 2: What do you mean, flying all over?

1800
01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:39,400
Speaker 3: Flying all over? But you got a glove and you're

1801
01:20:39,400 --> 01:20:41,439
Speaker 3: an athlete. I know what's about New Mexico.

1802
01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:44,960
Speaker 2: If it hits like the roof and then falls down.

1803
01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:46,479
Speaker 1: Hits him on the head, can guess.

1804
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:47,920
Speaker 3: If it hits you on the head and you can

1805
01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:49,800
Speaker 3: cuss after that, then you're not who you thought you were.

1806
01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:51,519
Speaker 2: Okay, that's fair to say.

1807
01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:54,559
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you, hey, you get some legal advice

1808
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:57,200
Speaker 1: because you can probably well, don't do that because then

1809
01:20:57,200 --> 01:20:57,720
Speaker 1: it's on bust.

1810
01:20:57,840 --> 01:20:59,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, no, I'm not doing that.

1811
01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:01,080
Speaker 1: I was.

1812
01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:02,760
Speaker 5: I was at a camp out and we were using

1813
01:21:02,840 --> 01:21:05,479
Speaker 5: newspaper to start fires, and all of a sudden, I

1814
01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:07,400
Speaker 5: see this this paper. I wish it'd have been a

1815
01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:09,320
Speaker 5: Tennessee player because I think this would be something that's

1816
01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:11,200
Speaker 5: super cool to get framed. I was gonna give it

1817
01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:14,000
Speaker 5: to my friend's dad, who's a Anty fan. But since

1818
01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:16,120
Speaker 5: you are the person in this I think it's cool.

1819
01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:18,000
Speaker 5: You literally can throw it away. But I thought it

1820
01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:20,200
Speaker 5: was kind of dope. But it's like positive powers through

1821
01:21:20,240 --> 01:21:20,680
Speaker 5: all and like.

1822
01:21:20,800 --> 01:21:22,559
Speaker 2: Just that is fucking hard.

1823
01:21:22,800 --> 01:21:24,240
Speaker 3: So if you keep that, that is.

1824
01:21:26,160 --> 01:21:29,680
Speaker 2: I think. I think it's better coming from a Tennesseean.

1825
01:21:29,880 --> 01:21:32,120
Speaker 3: So look, this is We're still gonna have the rivalry.

1826
01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:33,760
Speaker 7: But I hope the best for you and hope you

1827
01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:34,719
Speaker 7: have a successful career.

1828
01:21:34,840 --> 01:21:36,840
Speaker 2: So I appreciate that. I think.

1829
01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:39,840
Speaker 3: One that's big.

1830
01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 2: That's big of you.

1831
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:43,880
Speaker 3: Which camera show this camera here?

1832
01:21:48,240 --> 01:21:53,760
Speaker 1: That is badass. It's bigger than the game, bigger than

1833
01:21:53,800 --> 01:21:55,040
Speaker 1: the game, one hundred.

1834
01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:04,439
Speaker 3: Corrupt. I like question, yeah, Diego, as you know, bud

1835
01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:08,640
Speaker 3: light is absolutely incredible and anyone would do anything for

1836
01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:11,960
Speaker 3: a bud Light. But what's one thing Diego Pavia would

1837
01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:13,719
Speaker 3: do anything for it? Can't say family.

1838
01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:18,720
Speaker 2: I'd bite an ear off to win the national championship.

Speaker 3: anybody's ear. You'd bite myne ear off.

1842
01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:30,160
Speaker 1: Would you let somebody bite your ear off for a

1843
01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:31,640
Speaker 1: would you.

1844
01:22:31,720 --> 01:22:33,840
