I've got this down 44 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,119 Speaker 1: to a science. It'll be very stealthy. 45 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 3: I'm fine with it. 46 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: I'll see what I can put together and live your 47 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: best life. 48 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 3: I'm really excited because I'm not married for another five 49 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 3: or six, four or five days, something like that. But 50 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 3: we've got a really good show tonight. I'm particularly excited 51 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 3: for this one. 52 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 1: We do so. A couple of weeks ago we put 53 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: together a special production talking about how college football coaches 54 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: get hired. We've got a bunch of great ideas for 55 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: how college football works, and it's not just how coaches 56 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: get hired. Tonight's show where maybe we didn't put all 57 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: of the production elements into it, but the quality of 58 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: the content that I think you're going to get in 59 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: return makes it well worth the free price of admission. 60 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: Here on the show, we've invited Yogi roth Back from 61 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 1: Elite eleven from the PAC twelve network. Yogi is one 62 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: of the more interesting and optimistic gentlemen you'll ever have 63 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: an opportunity to meet, and we brought him on to 64 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: talk about all things quarterbacking, particularly you're a new quarterback. 65 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: What happens next? 66 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: I mean, there's let's see if you look across And 67 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 3: I apologize for focusing in on Power five conferences, because 68 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 3: a lot of what I think we're going to talk 69 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 3: about touches is sort of universal. But when you look 70 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 3: across the bigger teams the bigger conferences. You have Clemson. 71 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 3: Kelly Bryant looks to be the starter, but either way, 72 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 3: there will have a new full time starting quarterback after 73 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson takes off. North Carolina. You know Mitchell, maybe 74 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 3: we just call him Mitchell. Let me won't even say 75 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 3: his last name. We just really hone in on that. 76 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 3: He's like Pele, yeah, exactly. So you have you in 77 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 3: North Carolina, you have Virginia Tech. You look across Big twelve, 78 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 3: not a lot of new starters. But Will Greer is 79 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 3: a new starter for West Virginia, but a not a 80 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 3: new starting quarterback college football, Texas Tech working in somebody. 81 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 3: So across the league, and we've seen the quarterbacks in 82 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 3: La Josh Rosen as a true freshman, Sam Donald last 83 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 3: year as a red shirt freshman. So more and more 84 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 3: quarterbacks are being thrown onto the field early on, and 85 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 3: some of them sink, some of them swim, some of 86 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 3: them completely thrive, and some of them completely tank. But 87 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 3: what's interesting is Yogi's background with the Elite eleven. You 88 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 3: know what, nobody watches more quarterback play probably than Yogi 89 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 3: Roth just in general that exists his perspective on what 90 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 3: it means to be a new starting quarterback, especially with 91 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 3: modern day pressures, with what playing football actually means schematically 92 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 3: in twenty seventeen, with just the mental side of things 93 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 3: and the challenges that are thrown at you on the field, 94 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 3: I think it's really interesting to sort of figure out 95 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 3: where these quarterbacks heads are at early on in their development. 96 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: So let's die. Then we're going to talk to Yogi 97 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: Roth see if we can gain some insight into how 98 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: it works if you've been named a new starting quarterback, 99 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: either as a freshman, as a transfer, or maybe someone 100 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: who's been on the same team for a couple of 101 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: years and finally is getting their chance. We'll get into 102 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: that here momentarily, Dan, but I do need to mention 103 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: this before we go any further.

They're like, all his suits are too tight. 134 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: So I asked him about it, and he was like, 135 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: it's not that my suits are too tight, it's that 136 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: my body has very strange shapes, so I have to 137 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: get custom made shirts.

I'm not sure how many people get 181 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 2: to see that, but we get to see that. 182 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 4: Side of you, and I appreciate being on the journey. 183 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 3: Listen, Yogi, be cool. I'm trying to keep this my 184 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 3: my reputation as being a stoneface killer a lot, now, 185 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 3: I I am a I'm a teddy bear. I am 186 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 3: a soft person. So thank you very much. Ty Ty's 187 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 3: not bad himself. Ty, We will know it is. 188 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: It is your time to shine, mister Rubistine. This is true. 189 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: We'll get words of optimism from the most optimistic person 190 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: we've ever had on the program. That's after we get 191 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: done talking about the topic at hand. A couple of 192 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: weeks ago, we talked about how coaches get hired in 193 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:01,439 Speaker 1: college football. Yes, today we're going to shift gears a 194 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: little bit and we want to talk about what it's 195 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: like to be a new starting quarterback in the college 196 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: football ranks. So you could be a freshman, you can 197 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: be a five star recruit, you can be a two 198 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: star recruit, or you could be the type of quarterback 199 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: who's been on the pine for a couple of years 200 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: and you finally get your shot. So we brought on Yogi, 201 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: who knows pretty much everything there is to know about quarterbacks, 202 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: and I guess we'll start here Yogi. The traditional path, 203 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: at least when Dan and I came up with the 204 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 1: idea for this show is you're a highly touted prospect, 205 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: perhaps you go through the Elite eleven system. Everyone in 206 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: the college football ether knows who you are. You pick 207 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: your school, you get out there on the field. What 208 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: is the most noticeable difference between really high level high 209 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 1: school football and you know, traditional Power five D one 210 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: college football A lot? 211 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 4: I mean from a game standpoint. One of my favorite things. 212 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: It's kind of like the old the old movie We 213 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 2: love Hoosiers, right, and you know, you go to the 214 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 2: big gym and you get the guy on your shoulders 215 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 2: and how's that? How has the rim ten feet? How 216 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 2: long is the floor? 217 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 4: Note? 218 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 2: You know, like and I think the game is still 219 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 2: the same, right, it's you know, the width of the 220 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 2: field is the same, the length of the field, the goalposts, 221 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 2: and when you get there, it's the same game. We've 222 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 2: been playing and idelate the quarterback position have fallen obsessively 223 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 2: in love with. 224 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 4: But so many things change, And. 225 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 2: Of course it's obvious to state the speed, the size, 226 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: the uh the ability to have an anticipatory skill that 227 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 2: can operate in that environment. 228 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 4: But really, for me or I always go and. 229 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 2: Where I've gone, more and more being around this game 230 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 2: is mastery of your voice and so much so it's 231 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 2: going to be a theme this year with the Little 232 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 2: eleven when they get there here in two weeks or 233 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 2: so and the finals are in Los Angeles. And it 234 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 2: comes down to obviously the basis of decision making, and 235 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 2: that carries across al months. 236 00:11:58,880 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 4: Of your life. 237 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 2: Right that's on the field, off the field, third down, 238 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 2: red zone, backed up, et cetera. But I think that 239 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 2: it really comes down to do you have ownership over 240 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 2: who you are? And that is a hard thing to 241 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: do because let's just play it out step by step. Right, 242 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 2: I'm going to be a fourteen year old and I'm 243 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 2: offered by a big time school and all of a sudden, 244 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 2: Kate Martel when he got offered by Stark at UW 245 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 2: at fourteen, is life changed? And that happens more and 246 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 2: more and more and more now and you add in 247 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 2: the early signing period et cetera, early visits, it's only 248 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 2: going to get earlier. So now who I am perceived 249 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 2: to be and who I am become two different things. 250 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 2: And to me, that's the hardest part for a student 251 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 2: athlete because a lot of times they just want to 252 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 2: be a kid again, and sometimes they act that way 253 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 2: and then they get burned. And I think it's a 254 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: tough place that we put them in. As you know, 255 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 2: a football society in terms of a kid gets to 256 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,199 Speaker 2: be on campus and as your question stated, okay, now 257 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 2: it's time for you to be the starter. And they're 258 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: not allowed to be aneen year old. You know, they're 259 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 2: expected to be a starter, and what that entails is maturity, 260 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 2: great decision making. Be to the face of the program. 261 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: Not only do the interviews post game, but go ahead 262 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 2: and do all the community events. Go to the head 263 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 2: coach of the booster events. Make sure you get straight 264 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 2: a's because that's what a quarterback does. And oh, by 265 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 2: the way, live in the facility while trying to maintain 266 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 2: a high GPA because our quarterback needs to be a 267 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 2: three point five or higher because that's just what you're 268 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: accustomed to. And that can send a lot of different 269 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 2: messages to a student athlete and does and if they 270 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: don't do the work around who they are, what they're about, 271 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 2: what motivates them. You know what I call is what 272 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 2: their story is. Then they can be lost and their 273 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 2: fall from grace, which happens to all of us, because 274 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 2: the game. 275 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 4: Decides when it's done with us, and whether. 276 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 2: That's Brett Favre, who a chance to meet for the 277 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 2: first time interviewing a couple of weeks ago, the game 278 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 2: decided when it was kind of done with him, and 279 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: he was the guy who played longer than anybody or 280 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 2: a guy like me. When your careators ends and it 281 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 2: just ends, you don't get to choose, and the fall, 282 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 2: in my opinion, is getting harder and harder when careers end, 283 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 2: and the ceiling that they're on top of, or the 284 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 2: floor that they're on in the proverbial building gets higher 285 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 2: and higher and higher because of all the attention. 286 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 4: And if you don't know who you are, you're screwed. 287 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 2: And I think that happens when you start, when you 288 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: get benched or you get injured, or you win or 289 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 2: you lose that ultimately when your career is over. 290 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 4: So that to me is the work that I think is. 291 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 2: Most critical to at least get started on prior to 292 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 2: becoming the face of a Power five big time program. 293 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and by the way, Yogi, that's not an easy 294 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: thing to do for a lot of regular college students. 295 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: Going to college to find yourself is one of the 296 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: primary focuses of going away to school. You layer on 297 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: top of that all the attention that comes with playing 298 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: at a major institution, all of the trappings of being 299 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: a freshman, needing to learn to manage your time both 300 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: in the classroom, on the field, and otherwise, and everything 301 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: else that goes with that new environment that is not 302 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: very easy to accompl What kind of support do programs 303 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: offer to try and cultivate that maturity. 304 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 2: It's a great question, because coaches are recognizing this definitely 305 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 2: on the PAC twelve conference, so I think are further 306 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 2: along in elements off the field and just in the 307 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 2: communities of those Campuses' a little further along in some 308 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 2: other places around the country. 309 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 4: That's not a knock. 310 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 2: I think that's just the reality of being in major 311 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: metropolitan areas and the students that you're attracting from. 312 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 4: All over the globe, you know, kind of raises everybody's game. 313 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 4: Or at Stanford's the easy. 314 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 2: Example, but I've been on pretty much every campus this 315 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: offseason and obviously over the last you know, nine plus 316 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 2: years as an analyst, and they're and they're doing the 317 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 2: work to do it. The challenge is it's kind of 318 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 2: the good with the bat, right, You're only about twenty 319 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: hours per week. And if I'm a football coach, like 320 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 2: I want to teach my guy ball, right, so how 321 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 2: much might dedicate that to the other side A guy 322 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 2: who does it, I think as well as anybody's Chris Peterson. 323 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 4: You know, they've got real life Wednesdays. You know. 324 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 2: I was just up there and spoke at one last week, 325 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 2: and they talked everything with their kids. And he'll bring 326 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 2: them in for you know, sometimes five minutes after a workout, 327 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 2: or he will you know, bring in a guest speaker 328 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 2: like me for an hour to hit a different topic. 329 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 4: And he goes across the board. 330 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 2: And I think it's kind of like, you know, when 331 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 2: a freshman comes in as a quarterback, the first thing 332 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 2: you teach him is how to take a snap, you know, 333 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 2: how do you want their feet and the shotgun or 334 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 2: under center dependent upon your system, right, how you identifying 335 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: a linebacker, how you're getting in the play, what's the 336 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 2: cadence even when they're a senior day one install the 337 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 2: great coaches i'm around, they still teach that, right. It's 338 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: kind of the way you do small things the way 339 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 2: you do all things. And to me, it's like you 340 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 2: have to continue to teach and harp and teach and 341 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 2: harp on what it means to be a real man, 342 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 2: Teach and harp and teaching, harp on what it means 343 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 2: to deal with finances, teach and harp and teaching harp 344 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 2: on what it means to find your voice, and you 345 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 2: just have to keep doing it. 346 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 4: Because they don't just get it. 347 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 2: And that's scientifically proven as the brain doesn't fully developed 348 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 2: toward twenty five. I do it with corporations around the 349 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: country and the off season, and you know, it hard 350 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 2: for a college kid, it's hard for a forty five 351 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 2: year old, you know, to go through the process and 352 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: say this is what I stand for, this is about, 353 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 2: this is my voice, and I'm going to game mastery 354 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 2: over it. And it's hard to do and it's always evolving. 355 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 2: But to me, as long as you're doing the work, 356 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 2: then that's what's that's what's most meaningful because it's gonna 357 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: get hard, you know, we always say it at SC 358 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 2: and you. 359 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 4: Know, obviously that program is a spotlight. 360 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 2: I've always felt when you play quarterback there and you 361 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 2: sign out of high school, you're a household name. 362 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:30,719 Speaker 4: You know, country knows Jack Sears. 363 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 2: But when you start, you become a Heisman candidate and 364 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 2: you've got to be ready for that, and. 365 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 4: That is really hard to do. 366 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:37,719 Speaker 2: So you've got to kind of do the work with 367 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 2: the student applete when they get there. Because the quarterback, 368 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 2: as you guys know and your listeners, I'm sure no, 369 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 2: they're the only one that feels the. 370 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 4: Pressure like a head coach feels it. 371 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 2: And it's not exactly the same, but it's the closest 372 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 2: and they're kind of in a foxhole together, you know, 373 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 2: they're kind of in that bunker together when it gets hard, 374 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 2: specifically at a great place. And that's why one of 375 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 2: my favorite questions to ask kids when I get on 376 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 2: our campus is what's that relationship like? And for a 377 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 2: fifth year senior and a head coach who come together 378 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 2: throughout the whole thing, like, how is it developed? You know, 379 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 2: how do you deal with him as a young kid? 380 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 2: And there's so many great stories in the history of 381 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 2: college football about you know, quarterback way back in the 382 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 2: day walking to their coaches. I'll say, hey, man, you 383 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 2: can't talk that way to me in front of the team. 384 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 2: You can writ me all you want in your office, 385 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 2: because I need to make sure you know I can 386 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 2: still be the guy in front of them or vice versa. 387 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 2: And I think that's a coach's job is to learn 388 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 2: their learner, which allows them in turn to kind of 389 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 2: figure out how to how to help them and teach 390 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 2: them to find their voice. 391 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 3: So we're now watching a sport yogi in which the 392 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 3: expectation is now that a quarterback who comes in as 393 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 3: a true freshman, a red shirt freshman. We saw, you know, 394 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 3: Jameis Winston, we see Marcus Mariota, We see the quarterbacks 395 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 3: in LA succeed almost immediately. What do you credit that 396 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 3: early success with? What do you credit that early success 397 00:18:54,240 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 3: And when you look around college football, where where did 398 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 3: the expectations get out of hand? 399 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 1: I guess? 400 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 3: And why is that early success a thing whereas it 401 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 3: didn't used to be a thing? 402 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: You know? 403 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 3: Is it sort of the preparation that they're getting in 404 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 3: high school that's better. Is it the fact that coaches 405 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 3: are getting better, you know, teaching and speaking with and 406 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 3: learning the language of younger players. What is this sort 407 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 3: of attribution to that early success. 408 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 2: It's a great question. I think that there's a few 409 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 2: major elements to that. 410 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 4: I can remember starting nearly eleven, nine years ago. 411 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 2: When I jumped on and joined the staff and went 412 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 2: down to Texas, and two years later went back down 413 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 2: to Texas, and it was like a TCU camp or something. 414 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,479 Speaker 4: I was like, Wow, they're way better issue than they 415 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 4: were a couple of years ago. 416 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 2: And it kept getting better and better, and you dive 417 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 2: deeper and deeper, and all of a sudden you saw 418 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 2: the seven on seven this. 419 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 4: Kind of thing. 420 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 2: So the kids in fourth grade, it wasn't just you're 421 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 2: the best athlete play quarterback. It was like, you're the 422 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 2: best athlete. You can throw the ball, and I'm teaching 423 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: you cover too. I mean, it just became the evolution 424 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 2: of Friday night tykes, good, bad and different. Football has 425 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 2: become something taught much younger. 426 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 4: So I think there's that. 427 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 2: I think high school coaches are really soaking up information, 428 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: and college coaches are smart. 429 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 4: I mean doors are open everywhere across. 430 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 2: The country to come in and learn and teach. And 431 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 2: then of course the game has shifted. The reality is 432 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 2: is that it's an easier game play right now at 433 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 2: that position, and the way it's being taught and this 434 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 2: isn't a knock is the way that it's being taught 435 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 2: a lot of times is Okay, where can we find 436 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 2: success and put our best player. 437 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 4: On the field. 438 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 2: And to do that, it's kind of like what you 439 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:35,959 Speaker 2: used to do with running backs when they got to college. 440 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 4: When you get a great running back, like when Reggie 441 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:38,880 Speaker 4: came in to SC, it. 442 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 2: Was all right, let's give him five plays. You know, 443 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 2: he isn't no everything. Give five plays, you know, Let's 444 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 2: make sure he can play at the speed he's capable 445 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 2: of on those plays. Okay, cool, next year, let's givehim 446 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,239 Speaker 2: twenty five plays, you know, all right now thirty year, 447 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 2: give them everything, you know, So there's a progression. And 448 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 2: I think it's the same thing at the quarterback because 449 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 2: of what the spread has allowed you to do. 450 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 4: So if you put yourself in a position to bad 451 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 4: coach and let's just get. 452 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 2: A job at the power five school, not Ohio State, 453 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 2: SC Texas, right, not Elite Alabama, one of those places 454 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 2: where you can get the old line and get all 455 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 2: the positions to run whatever offense you want, well, what 456 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 2: are you gonna run. You're gonna run. You're gonna run 457 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 2: an advent of the spread. You're gonna run a place 458 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 2: where you don't have to make full field reads. You're 459 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 2: gonna run a system where you can make the green 460 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 2: grass rule and get the ball out. You're gonna run 461 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 2: a place where, okay, hey mean my receivers, they're gonna 462 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 2: play right outside wide receiver, then play right spot receiver, 463 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 2: and et cetera, et cetera, and that's where they're going 464 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 2: to become experts. 465 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 4: You know, Oregon had done that obviously in the. 466 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 2: Past of I'm gonna be so good and I'm going 467 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 2: to overrap the daylights out of this system so I 468 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 2: can kind of just operate in that world. 469 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 4: Now, when does it get hard. 470 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 2: It gets hard when all of a sudden, what you 471 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 2: expect doesn't happen. And I was talking to guys in 472 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 2: the NFL this year about quarterbacks and drafting them, and 473 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 2: they said, you know this specific team that really it's 474 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: gonna be hard for us to ever draft a quarterback 475 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 2: because when you come out of college, you go to 476 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 2: you know, George or Jordan or one of the incredible 477 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 2: quarterback builders that all these guys go to and they 478 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 2: get taught all the stuff, right, they get taught the 479 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 2: fronts and how to read them and the coverages and 480 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 2: everything goes, but you don't really know it because you 481 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 2: haven't done it. You know, your ten thousand hours of 482 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 2: playing the position are legit, but they're not necessarily changing protections, 483 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: resetting fronts, you know, identifying them, let alone operating in 484 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 2: real time against them. So it's just it's just such 485 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 2: a big learning curve and in this era of coaching, 486 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 2: you know't of the time, which is why I go 487 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 2: back to the question what was your run if you're 488 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 2: in college? Well, I want to get the seven wins, 489 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 2: I want to get to nine wins. How can I 490 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: do it? 491 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 4: Right? Let's get the ball out. 492 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 2: And I think that's important to note in terms of 493 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 2: why guys are having success, and it is the simplification 494 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 2: of a lot of these offenses. And that's just to me, 495 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 2: that the truth of it, and there's nothing wrong with that. 496 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 2: That's that's the reality, fair enough. 497 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 3: And so when you see these super young quarterbacks. Another 498 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 3: one obviously, Deshaun Watson, what a lot of success early 499 00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 3: on at Clemson and went on to win a national championship. 500 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 3: When you see these guys as freshmen or red shirt freshman, 501 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 3: first year starting, you know, still really new to the 502 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 3: field in game play, what are you shocked to see? 503 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 3: What floors you to see? You know, this guy's nineteen 504 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 3: and he's already doing this. What does an advanced freshman 505 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 3: or an advanced red shirt freshman, as silly as that 506 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 3: term sounds like, you know, is it progressions? Is it 507 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 3: being able to sort of figure out disguised coverages and blitzes. 508 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,719 Speaker 3: Is it poison calm that should come later? What is 509 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 3: what does a special advanced freshman red shirt freshman look like? 510 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a fun conversation to me because of the 511 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 2: stages they've been put on. 512 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 4: In high school. 513 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 2: Those stages aren't that big, you know, because they don't 514 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 2: know any better. 515 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 4: You know, you look at Sam Darnold last year, he 516 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 4: just kind of went out and bald. You know. You 517 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 4: look at Shane Buschelle last year. You know, he didn't flinch, 518 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 4: you know. There it just wasn't too big of an 519 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 4: environ for them. 520 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 2: To me, the fun study is second year players, and 521 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 2: a lot of times second year quarterback specifically, whether it's right, 522 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 2: Schard sophomores or true sophomores, they struggle, and a lot 523 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 2: of that, at least in my opinion based on talking 524 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 2: to people and being around them, is all of a sudden, 525 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 2: Now the all this stuff grows around them. 526 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 4: Right. I hate to use the term noise, but I'm 527 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 4: going to use it. Right, all the noise kind of grows. 528 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: And I can remember talking to a second year quarterback 529 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: last year and he said, he goes. 530 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 4: You know, when when I came back, they. 531 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 2: Were like, okay, you got to be the leader here, 532 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 2: which is totally fair. Okay you're the quarterback's let's be 533 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 2: loud now. And he goes, hey, I got like fiftyear 534 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 2: seniors here, and nobody really taught me how to do that, 535 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 2: you know. So we go back to the high school level, 536 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 2: we're wrapping the daylights out of things. Only seven on 537 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 2: seven to us. But again that's why I know I 538 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 2: work with a lead eleven. But I'll get on the 539 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,880 Speaker 2: table for us. I don't think anybody in the high 540 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 2: school space is doing what we do beyond the x's 541 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 2: and o's, and a lot of guys can teach up 542 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 2: all beautifully, but what we do on the sports psychology front, 543 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 2: on the mental training front, on the domestic violence front. 544 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 2: You know, the three sixty l evolutional quarterback did it 545 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 2: for ten days or so at the EEG eleven finals 546 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 2: in the opening, but at least get them going a 547 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:14,639 Speaker 2: little bit. 548 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 4: And then the coaches, obviously in college, do. 549 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 2: A phenomenal job of taking it to the next level 550 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 2: with all the resources these places have with guest speakers 551 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 2: and different curriculum, et cetera. But my point is is 552 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 2: that the second year, all of a sudden, it's like, whoa, 553 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 2: I don't I'm not just playing, you know, I got 554 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,719 Speaker 2: all this other crap. I gotta go do it. And 555 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 2: that's part of it. I mean, it's kind of we 556 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 2: call it a Laite eleven. It's his phrase, you embrace 557 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 2: the burden of influence because that's what you have at 558 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 2: the quarterback position. And that, to me is way more 559 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 2: interesting than oh my god, why is he ripping it 560 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 2: as a first year player. 561 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, his progressions are great. Is a testimatory. 562 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 2: Skills are great, and the coaches are calling it to 563 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 2: the skill set Sam. You could do anything with him 564 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 2: because he's an elite player. Josh was the same way 565 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 2: as a true freshman Josh Rosen. Some guys, you got 566 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 2: to tailor what you can what you can call, and 567 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 2: where you want to go on based on obviously game situations, 568 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 2: specific down in distance, et cetera. But to me, it's 569 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 2: the second year is the study. Okay, now, how have 570 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 2: you dealt with this? How have you handled this? Because 571 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 2: it isn't just let me go ball. There's more to 572 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 2: the position. There's more to the expectation. There's more to 573 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 2: being on the front of the poster, there's more to 574 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 2: being on the billboard, there's more to be in all 575 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,239 Speaker 2: the interviews. There's just more to it, and you got 576 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 2: to deal with that. And to me, that is the 577 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 2: funnest part of being able to coach quarterbacks or be 578 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 2: a coordinator or obviously be a head coach and kind 579 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 2: of be a lockstep and guide this young man to 580 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 2: that place. And that's where you see some guys go 581 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 2: off the rails. We've seen that before, and we see 582 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 2: some guys struggle, and we see some guys thrive. And 583 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 2: it's going to be a new thing I'm really tuned 584 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 2: into after this last year of second year of players 585 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 2: and really evaluating the mental side of their growth as 586 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 2: a performer versus just, oh my god, they've got full 587 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 2: mastery of the whole playbook, Like no kidding, Like they 588 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 2: better have that, you know, like welcome to the position 589 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 2: at your job. 590 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: We've talked about some rather deep subjects here, so not 591 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: to oversimplify, but you mentioned the playbook. I'm fascinated by 592 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: the verbiage, the terms that are required just to make 593 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: the offense per What are the tricks to getting a freshman, 594 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: to getting a first year starting quarterback to not only 595 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: understand what the plays mean and how they work, but 596 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: also simply memorize all the terminology so that they can 597 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: properly call out the plays. 598 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, you got to give so many 599 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 2: of these coaches they're kudos in terms of I really 600 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 2: think coaches, especially on the offensive side, have really leaned 601 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 2: into how the brain works. 602 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 4: So there's this theory called the scientific mind. 603 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 2: It's kind of a nerdy article that I can remember 604 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 2: reading it ten years ago, and it was about how 605 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 2: the brain works and clusters, and it's basically the idea 606 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 2: of the brain works and. 607 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 4: Clusters of five or excuse me, of. 608 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 2: Seven plus or minus two, so fiven nine Like those 609 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 2: are kind of the clusters we can remember, so that 610 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 2: the easy comparison is when you were a kid, at 611 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 2: least us, Like we remembered our phone numbers, right, and 612 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 2: we remembered seven numbers. You know, for the most part, 613 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 2: we didn't. We didn't have a cell phone. You know, 614 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 2: you just kind of remember your boys' number and five 615 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 2: said three to four whatever. 616 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 4: You just kind of went away with it. Well. 617 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 2: I think now the important thing is coaches are understanding 618 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 2: how the brain works and the idea of learning. Your 619 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 2: learning with these kids, they're saying, okay, cool, what's what's 620 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 2: max capacity? What do they need to learn? Okay, I 621 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 2: need to give them three things I could if they're 622 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 2: a young guy. For instance, I can give my quarterback 623 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 2: basically like a picture, and this picture means, uh, this 624 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 2: is your protection, this is the route combination, and this 625 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 2: is your drop. This is oversimplified, but they're going to 626 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 2: tell the old line in the center or whoever's closer 627 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 2: to the sideline, Hey, this is the protection, and they'll 628 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 2: verbalize that. 629 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 4: Element to the old line. The receiver is the same thing. 630 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 2: So I think as the progression of quarterbacks in their careers, 631 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 2: the specificss go on. They're not asked to learn everything, 632 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 2: and that is the progression of a learner. Some places 633 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 2: are some places are like, hey, this is the offense 634 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 2: for a state. They're fun to watch because you know, 635 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 2: it's it's good stuff they're doing there, and you got 636 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 2: to call it real plays. And I say that in 637 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 2: terms of like West Coast off and dual right, Z 638 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 2: shorty two ZMZ snag. You know, like there's there's elements 639 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 2: of that at some institutions, and I think that other 640 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 2: institutions kind of get unfairly land basage for you know, 641 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 2: they're just you know, we just think that they just 642 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 2: call red right and that's a play. 643 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 4: You know. 644 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 2: Some places, yes, but I think it's way more complex 645 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 2: than and we give them credit for at times, but overall, 646 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 2: for the quarterback, you learn it because it matters. 647 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 4: You know. 648 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 2: We do a talk with with kids all the time 649 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 2: about like how much you love something and what that 650 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: really looks like, you know, truly it's not just you know, 651 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 2: it's like the Tom Herman presser last year and he's like, 652 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 2: if we don't just say I love you man, like 653 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 2: we like love each other, right, I remember that fun 654 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 2: little bit. 655 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 4: Well. 656 00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 2: I think it's the same thing with the game. You know, 657 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 2: if you have the agape love for the craft, then you. 658 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 4: Go hard at it. 659 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 2: And I do think it's important for these coaches and 660 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 2: they're doing it. There's a there's a school in the 661 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 2: SEC that to me, it was amazing when I heard 662 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 2: what they did. They gave a quarterback test to a 663 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 2: young man on paper and he really struggled. They gave 664 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 2: the same test to him on an iPad and he 665 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 2: got like one hundred percent. It was just like you 666 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 2: think about it when if you are born in whatever, 667 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 2: a nineteen year old whatever. I don't want to know 668 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 2: the year a nineteen year old born right now because 669 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 2: it make you feel terrible. 670 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 3: Nineteen ninety eight, yogihr. 671 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,239 Speaker 4: At least it's not a two thousand yet. 672 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 2: But think about it, they probably, I mean, they don't 673 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 2: teach creative and they don't teach cursive anymore in third grade, right, 674 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 2: so like, how much are you really doing on paper? 675 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 4: Not much, you know, So again I go back to 676 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 4: how guys are learning and learn your learner, and to me, 677 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 4: the amount. 678 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 2: Of teams that are studying the mental side of performance, 679 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 2: not only as performers, but also how you become a 680 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 2: process based thinker and how they're doing that is across 681 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 2: the board, and if you're not doing it, you're kind 682 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 2: of missing the boat, you know, to be quite honest, 683 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 2: because you're not understanding how these kids learn. And that 684 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 2: to me is always where it's where the evolutions has occurred. 685 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: How similar is the verbiage between programs in your observation. 686 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 2: It's across the board. I mean, you're gonna go to 687 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 2: Stanford and you're gonna get three plays. And the thing 688 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 2: about them that I love is that you know, you 689 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 2: don't play until you earn the right to play and 690 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: you're ready. You know, other places can be like, dude, 691 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 2: this guy can rip, Let's get the ball in his hand. 692 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 2: Let's see what happens. 693 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 4: Right. 694 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 2: This guy's gonna make things happen, right. I mean, we've 695 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 2: seen that happen across the country. And those teams start 696 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 2: out hot and they go four and oh, five and zero, 697 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 2: and the guys got featured on game Day or whatever, 698 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 2: and then they. 699 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 4: Lose three straight. 700 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 2: You know, it's just kind of like there's a reason 701 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: why Oklahoma is the only team in the history college 702 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 2: football ever a true freshman ride. You know, outside of 703 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 2: obviously what it even hurts last year, right, they go 704 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 2: all the way till the end. But you got to 705 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 2: have so many other tools in your tool box to 706 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 2: be able to protect that position, just because of the 707 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 2: reality of what kids know coming in and what the 708 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 2: expectation is from these offensive minds now that there are 709 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 2: on the offensive side in college football. 710 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 4: So I think it varies, man, I really do. 711 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 2: I think that the depth of it though, is like 712 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 2: it's unfair. Like we could look at Texas Tech, for instance, 713 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 2: or Wazoo and be like, you know, man, they just 714 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 2: have twelve plays, right, And I think that gets thrown 715 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 2: out sometimes, but when you dive into it, it's not 716 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 2: really the truth. Right, Like you could say Jake's Faveito's 717 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 2: offense is the easiest in the country. Well not really, 718 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 2: you know, when you really dive into what he's teaching. 719 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 2: Will grew at West Virginia, right, And I think so 720 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 2: on and so forth. We can go around the conference 721 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 2: in the country because now in recruiting again, it comes 722 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 2: back to Okay, yeah, you can go throw it for 723 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 2: twenty five hundred yards, man, but you can get to 724 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 2: the league and in this quarterback arms race, like you 725 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 2: got to prove that you can do it, and we 726 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 2: saw it on the offensive line, and you've seen shifts 727 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 2: in how teams kick slide versus just past set and 728 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 2: spread offenses over the last couple years because they were 729 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 2: missing offensive linemen and recruiting like that is a shift. 730 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 4: It has happened, And the same thing in the quarterback. 731 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 2: Space of you got to prove to me how I'm 732 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 2: going to evolve, because the draft kind of speaks for itself. 733 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 2: You know, unless you are crazy ceiling, freaky athlete, insane 734 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 2: competitor like you better know football Toshaun Baller, and you 735 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 2: look at the guys that got drafted. List of this 736 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 2: last year to me was you know, it caught a 737 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 2: lot of slack, but it was a really deep quarterback 738 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 2: class in terms of, to me, the potential ceiling of 739 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 2: these guys, but also more importantly, they're obsessive knowledge for 740 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 2: the craft. 741 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: So you're a new starting quarterback, whether a freshman or 742 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: someone who's been on the team for a period of time, 743 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: You're now thrown into the spotlight. What is the most 744 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: important relationship to build because you've got options, You've got 745 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator and a quarterback coach, sometimes the same guy. 746 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: You've got an offensive line, you've got a receiving corps, 747 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: you've got other quarterbacks that are behind you on the 748 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: depth chart. What is the tried and true pathway besides 749 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 1: building a great relationship with all of them, preferably that's. 750 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 2: A great You guys ask great questions, which I love 751 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 2: your podcast, but I mean, I think when you get there, 752 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 2: you better develop relationships with your teammates, you know, like 753 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 2: Davidsve is a great example, right, and Granny is a 754 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,240 Speaker 2: fifth year transfer, but in two weeks he's named captain 755 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 2: or something like that last year, right, because he's got 756 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 2: around the guys. I still think you come back to that. 757 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 2: Tom Brady gave a great interview a couple of years ago. 758 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 2: It's an article we always passed out to the quarterbacks, 759 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 2: and he talks about how, like the QB is not 760 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 2: an extension of the coaching staff. The QB is a 761 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 2: member of the team and first and foremost, and that's 762 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,720 Speaker 2: his job to not be above anybody in that huddle, 763 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 2: on that roster, in that locker room. Now, his job 764 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 2: is to champion the message from the staff, of course, 765 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 2: but it was really cool in terms of how we 766 00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: reframe that, and I'd agree I think coaches would agree to. 767 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,240 Speaker 2: You know, it's the coaches' job to teach the student 768 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 2: athlete and put them in positions to lead, you know, 769 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 2: not necessarily to count on them to be responsible for 770 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 2: the leading. Now we always say that they are because 771 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 2: that's the right thing to do, and you put them 772 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 2: in the position to continue to evolve and grow, and 773 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 2: it's a great storyline. But I think if you asked 774 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 2: any Fortune five hundred CEO aka head coaches of Power 775 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 2: five and said, Okay, you're just giving the keys to 776 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 2: your twenty year old, eighteen year old nineteen year old. 777 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 4: Hell no, they're not doing it. 778 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 2: Their job is to put them in position to thrive 779 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: and make them feel as though they're driving the car. 780 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 4: But we all know who is necessarily doing it, especially 781 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 4: early on. 782 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 2: So to answer the question, I think the first thing 783 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 2: is your teammates, especially that position, because you can get 784 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 2: snipped out. 785 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 4: As a pretender really quick. 786 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 2: You fall into one or two categories in my opinion, 787 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 2: as a quarterback. And it's the first things we say 788 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 2: to all Lead eleven kids is you either love what 789 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 2: the game does for you, which is this you know 790 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 2: on the Instagram, this Twitter, the you know going on 791 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 2: different shows you do for the game period and the 792 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 2: story and and it's it's a tough question because nothing 793 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 2: wrong with love and what the game does for you, 794 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 2: like there's there's there's nothing wrong with love in the shine, 795 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 2: but it can't be first, you know, so to me, 796 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:15,879 Speaker 2: you go there and then it's it's the. 797 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,799 Speaker 4: Guy you're working with every day. I mean, they you 798 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:18,359 Speaker 4: have to be. 799 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 2: Able to be honest there so often. I can remember 800 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 2: Mitch Mustang. I'll never forget this first of my career, 801 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 2: and do you guys remember Mitch. He was one of 802 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 2: the most prize recruits, you know, and most written you 803 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,479 Speaker 2: know this era of college football, went to Arkansas, played 804 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 2: as a refreshment, balled out a lot of drama there 805 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 2: and transfers to sc And I'll never forget the first 806 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 2: day we came into the quarterback room and my job 807 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 2: was to kind of, you know, say hi to him 808 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 2: and let's see where he's at, like what does he know? 809 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 2: And it was so important that he could be honest. 810 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 2: I remember I asked him a couple just fundamental questions 811 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 2: in our system and he was trying to answer and 812 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 2: I was like, you never been taught that before? 813 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 4: Huh, and he's like no, and. 814 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 2: I was like, okay, cool. I was like, this is 815 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 2: a safe space. Like you need to be able to 816 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 2: say I don't know and versus I have all the answers. 817 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 2: And that goes back to the first thing we talked 818 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,840 Speaker 2: about is mastering your voice. You know, so often qbs 819 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 2: just try to I call them political figures, and you 820 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 2: just say the right thing and do the right thing, 821 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:14,320 Speaker 2: and I get it. I mean, we could almost do 822 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 2: a funny podcast where we just get answers at press 823 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 2: conference because we know exactly what they're going to say. 824 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 4: You know, I want to thank my family, want to 825 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 4: thank God, and all about my teammates, right like we 826 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 4: know what they're going to do. 827 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 2: But I think in the evolution of them as players, 828 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 2: they have to be able to be honest versus trying 829 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 2: to always impress. And that's a cool evolutionary element because 830 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 2: sometimes you want to be the smart guy in the room. 831 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,799 Speaker 2: Sometimes you want to ask questions so you look smart. 832 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 2: I mean, all those elements and insecurities are legitimate. And 833 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 2: I've always thought quarterbacks are like supermodels, you know, like 834 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 2: they've got thin skinned to a certain degree, you know, 835 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 2: because they always you know, to want to be a 836 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 2: rock star, and when they walk down that runway, they 837 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 2: are rock stars. But when they trip and fall, they 838 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 2: can go down a dark path, which we've seen with 839 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,800 Speaker 2: quarterbacks and coll the NFL and even high school and recruiting. 840 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,240 Speaker 4: And I think you have to be sensitive. 841 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 2: To that and the adult in the room as QB 842 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 2: coach or the coordinator. And that's the that's the relation 843 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 2: where you got to be super on a field to 844 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 2: be like, you know what, dude, I don't have a 845 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 2: clue of cover two means I have no clue how 846 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 2: to save his play, and then it's on them and 847 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 2: not call it and not put you in that situation 848 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 2: in your first year, and then by your third year, 849 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:22,760 Speaker 2: he might be calling the plays in the offensive. 850 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 4: You're in yogi. 851 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 3: How much do you believe, if at all? In sort 852 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 3: of fire development and sort of saying, okay, we have 853 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 3: this freshman who's clearly the most talented QB. He's soaking 854 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 3: up the playbook. He you know, he's responding. He has 855 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,879 Speaker 3: the respect of his teammates. But you know, our first 856 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 3: game of the year is against a huge team. It's 857 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 3: you know, it's in baton rouge it's in Austin, it's 858 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 3: in wherever, it's in Athens, and it may not do 859 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 3: his confidence, it may not do his development the sort 860 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 3: of the best favors if he goes in there as 861 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 3: his first game and struggles, and maybe he goes down 862 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 3: from there, and how much do you believe in the 863 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 3: sort of like, well, it's only a matter of time 864 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 3: before he starts, so let's get him some reps on 865 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 3: the bench, sort of mental reps, and then by game 866 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 3: four we'll see where he's at. Is how fine a 867 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 3: line is that. 868 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 4: I think it's really important. 869 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 2: And that's why these coaches are really into the mental 870 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 2: side of performance now, you know. And they got to 871 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 2: understand the insecurities that go with that and the pressures 872 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 2: that go with that and what goes into that. 873 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:24,240 Speaker 4: And I think. 874 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 2: If you don't have anybody else, it makes it easy 875 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 2: and easier decision, you know, sc fans always bringing up right, 876 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 2: it's man, what imagine if we started Sam against Alabama. 877 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 2: I think they would have got smoked as well, you know, 878 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,439 Speaker 2: week one, and I don't think he was ready then. 879 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 2: And I had been at all their scrimmages and at 880 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 2: their practices and at their press conference, and whenever I go, 881 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 2: I just listen and the way he talked versus the 882 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 2: way Max Brown talked and their confidence. 883 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 4: You just didn't know. 884 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 2: You didn't know what you were going to get, and 885 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 2: you thought, you know, you're gonna get with Sam or 886 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 2: with with Max, you know, so you went with them, 887 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: you know, as he wasn't there. Then I think it's interesting, 888 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 2: right you play in that since Jalen Green, because he 889 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 2: would have been a junior or whatever and you know, 890 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,399 Speaker 2: would have been getting the reps in training camp. 891 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 4: But I don't know, I think it really goes down 892 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 4: to the. 893 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 2: Psyche of a kid, and you've got to play that 894 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 2: out of who they are, and there's that unknown of 895 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 2: you don't know. You know, you don't know how they're 896 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 2: going to perform. You know, you can see it all 897 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 2: day long. You try to recreate competitive cauldrons, which is 898 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 2: what Boe Walsh used to call, like how you get 899 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 2: it guys ready and practice ready. You create all those 900 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 2: environments and situations on the practice field. But if you 901 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 2: don't have competitive depth, then you don't have you know, dudes, 902 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,839 Speaker 2: you're going up every day like an Alabama defense. 903 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 4: Or you know sc this year or whoever, maybe you 904 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 4: dove defense and you don't really know. 905 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,959 Speaker 2: So that's the beauty of the game. But to your point, 906 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 2: I think you gotta be careful, you know. You look 907 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 2: at I think it was Jake Browning Espreshman year and 908 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 2: they roll them out against Boise on the road and 909 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,359 Speaker 2: it was Chris Peterson like first game, right as head 910 00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 2: coach might his first or second game, and then we 911 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,960 Speaker 2: didn't know who's gonna start, and the way he goes 912 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 2: and they don't call the most aggressive game and it 913 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 2: comes down late and I think they ended up losing. 914 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 2: You know, they don't convert a couple of things at 915 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:11,439 Speaker 2: the end, and you protect them in your play calling, 916 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,319 Speaker 2: and then becomes a point where you say, all right, 917 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 2: let it rip. 918 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 4: You know. I think it's at every position too. I 919 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 4: can remember when Laryer Fitzgerald came. 920 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,839 Speaker 2: To pit and you know, unfortunately he beat me out, 921 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 2: but you know, I was getting the burn early on 922 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 2: and the coaches are just like, is he ready to 923 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 2: really play? 924 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 4: And he went up to one sideline was like I can. 925 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 2: We were losing in a game, and he goes, I'll 926 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 2: make the play, like just put me in and I'll 927 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 2: never forget Walter looked at him. 928 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 4: He goes, all right, it's your time. 929 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 2: The next play called the fade touchdown career away he went. 930 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 2: And that was like I think week two against Texas 931 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 2: A and M or something like that, and they just. 932 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 4: Didn't know, you know, does he know his plays? We 933 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 4: trust him? Is he going to run the right route 934 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 4: on a slant on third and two? Or is he 935 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 4: going to try to go. 936 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:49,399 Speaker 2: High and it to be a pixick the other way? 937 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 2: Like you just kind of don't know and then you 938 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 2: feel it. And that's why I go back to, like, 939 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 2: and this is me on my soapbox here of n 940 00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 2: Cuba and recruiting. I think there's one more changes they 941 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 2: need to make because they don't let these coaches really 942 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 2: evaluate one early signing period. You want all these things, Well, 943 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,280 Speaker 2: why can't they go to camps at like a lead eleven? 944 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 2: Why can't they get more contact around them like you 945 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,879 Speaker 2: can in basketball. I can be a basketball coach, head coach, 946 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 2: and I can go to Vegas and watch a kid play. 947 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 2: I could be an assistant coach in Vible and literally 948 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,360 Speaker 2: coach a high school kid who I'm recruiting at the 949 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 2: time on a club team. 950 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 4: But in football, I can't go watch the opening, Like 951 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,280 Speaker 4: I can't go learn more about my guys. 952 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 2: You know, I only get I can't bump them, I 953 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 2: can't talk to them when I go watch them throw. 954 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,399 Speaker 2: So I can watch them throw forty times in May, 955 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 2: like coaches are just just finish up doing on the road, 956 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,880 Speaker 2: but can't really get around him unless he can make 957 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:38,720 Speaker 2: his way to your camp. 958 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:40,839 Speaker 4: And I got to offer him all by the way 959 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 4: in ninth grade, like how are you. 960 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 2: Really supposed to know the psyche? And that to me 961 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 2: is why there's elements that they consistency in college football, 962 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 2: because it's just it's just hard unless you're an elite 963 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 2: place or you've got you know, insane, you know, elements 964 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 2: that recruits have to hit like they do it you 965 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 2: Dubb for instance. You know you don't see them with 966 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 2: surprise recruits on Sunday. They they know they're eighteen twenty 967 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 2: guys because they've gone through the process and it takes 968 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 2: them a little bit longer. But they're not going to 969 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 2: full inch. They're probably not going to miss some places. 970 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 2: They didn't go to the CFP last year and they 971 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 2: got to go early on some guys. And I think 972 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 2: that that's an element that leads to it, and it's 973 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 2: an area that I would I would love to see adjusted. 974 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,480 Speaker 3: You talk about the relationships between coaches and players in 975 00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 3: high school or lack thereof, and once they get on campus. 976 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 3: And this may be somewhat of a dumb question, but 977 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 3: I'm curious to what extent will coaches be it an 978 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,759 Speaker 3: offensive coordinator, a head coach when they're with a quarterback 979 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 3: and you talked about sitting with Mitch Mustain, But to 980 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,879 Speaker 3: what extent will they say, this is why we run 981 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 3: this kind of play here, this is why when the 982 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 3: defense is doing this, we attack them in this way. 983 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 3: How much do coaches look at it in the sort 984 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 3: of way of well, it doesn't it doesn't concern you, 985 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 3: why we do this? 986 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 1: Just do this? 987 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,440 Speaker 3: And do the better coaches make it more clear? Does 988 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 3: Chris Peterson, does David shad As you know, did Chip Kelly? 989 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:04,880 Speaker 1: Did you know? 990 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,360 Speaker 3: Does Jimbo Fisher really sit down with a quarterback and 991 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 3: say this is why we do this? And then this 992 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 3: is there that element. 993 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 2: When you're ready for it, you know, I think, you know, 994 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 2: let's just play out the quarterback room right now. And 995 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 2: I think this is true in the end. It's definitely 996 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,920 Speaker 2: truing in the NFL, and I believe it's true in college. 997 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 2: For the most part, you're talking to your starter, you know, 998 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 2: you know you have to and you have to keep 999 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:34,759 Speaker 2: pushing Sam Josh Jake, you know, just talking pack twelve 1000 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 2: quarterbacks and you know Luke, like four of the top 1001 00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 2: guys in America coming out or you know, heading the 1002 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 2: next year. You have to talk to the starter and 1003 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 2: push him, and you have got to hope that those other. 1004 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 4: Guys are following along. 1005 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 2: And there's an element of you know, that's when it 1006 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 2: gets hard for a lot of young quarterbacks. It's like, man, 1007 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,000 Speaker 2: like I'm not the guy anymore. You know, I'm not 1008 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 2: getting not getting the attention. My my basic question is 1009 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 2: really basic and he ain't time for that. Like, there's 1010 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 2: there's an. 1011 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,360 Speaker 4: Element of that for sure. But what I love the 1012 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 4: dancer of that, like did I just bashed on them, 1013 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 4: is the rule and the off season of you get. 1014 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 2: Your eight hours and coaches can kind of be around them. 1015 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:11,319 Speaker 4: Now. 1016 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 2: Granted, satellite camps aren't helping that type of development at 1017 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 2: all because they still exist on massive levels. You know, 1018 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 2: we all think that satellite camps went away and they haven't. 1019 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 2: They just kind of change some of the rules around them, 1020 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 2: so you don't get all that off season time that 1021 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:26,279 Speaker 2: could help develop a young guy. 1022 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:28,320 Speaker 4: But that's why you have graduate assistance and while you 1023 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,800 Speaker 4: have young coaches do it. But I think it's progressive 1024 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 4: based learning. I really do. And the way I have 1025 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 4: always looked at the quarterback position and receiver as well. 1026 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 2: Is a year one, it's no your assignment, right, So 1027 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:43,880 Speaker 2: the QB it's like, no, the route combination, you know 1028 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 2: and know you're one key art if it's curl flat, Like, 1029 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 2: who am I looking at? 1030 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 4: Based on one or two high? That's what I got 1031 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:51,799 Speaker 4: to do, you know, cool man operate there. 1032 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 2: Year two it's okay, you know, maybe you know the 1033 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 2: linebacker being plussed a little bit and the defense end 1034 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 2: being light in is stay means there's going to be 1035 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 2: a field pressure coming this way. Oh I got you, 1036 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 2: you know, and I can come backside to my alert. 1037 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 2: On a post year three, it's like I know what's coming, 1038 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 2: and I'm not only going to give you a dummy audible, 1039 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 2: but I'm give you dumby audible and I'm come back 1040 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,320 Speaker 2: a real audible and I'm gonna throw for six that 1041 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 2: is to me, the evolution that it's just the reality 1042 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,280 Speaker 2: of twenty seven practices. If you come in and aren't 1043 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 2: there early or yeah, you can go through player run practices, 1044 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,760 Speaker 2: but you're really not getting the coaching necessary because coaches 1045 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 2: are in satellite camps, they take vacation in July and 1046 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 2: then they're getting their starter ready, which is why when 1047 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:36,359 Speaker 2: you see freshman play early, it's fascinating. 1048 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 4: You know. 1049 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 2: I always think that it's funny when we hear from 1050 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,400 Speaker 2: fans of man, he's terrible, this guy can't play, And 1051 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 2: I'm like, dude, like you even comprehend what he's trying 1052 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 2: to get done as well as we don't even know 1053 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 2: the personal side of his life and the attention and 1054 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 2: the pressure and the expectation. And now they're not our age, right, 1055 00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,879 Speaker 2: they're not forty, they're not fifty, they're not grown men. 1056 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,839 Speaker 2: They're eighteen, nineteen, twenty years old in a world where 1057 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 2: I can get at you on social whenever I want. 1058 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,919 Speaker 2: I mean, there was a quarterback who retired a couple 1059 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,720 Speaker 2: of years ago, and a lot of it was because 1060 00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:14,880 Speaker 2: he struggled with all the negativity on social media, you know, 1061 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 2: and that it's just real and we can say whatever 1062 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 2: we want. You can be old school and say oh 1063 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 2: he's soft, he can't play blah blah blah, but your bs. 1064 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 4: Then you don't get this generation. 1065 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 2: You know, It's why I I'm really into watching and 1066 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 2: I know it's touchy subject for thirteen reasons. Why to me, 1067 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,919 Speaker 2: it's a beautiful element of giving us an insight into 1068 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:38,080 Speaker 2: high school and a reminder of like, oh yeah, that 1069 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,560 Speaker 2: does kind of happen. Oh man, like this is this 1070 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 2: bus an element of it. And it doesn't mean you're 1071 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 2: soft as a coach. It means that you're empathetic. And 1072 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 2: there's a big difference. 1073 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 4: You know. 1074 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 2: Jim Morri is phenomenal at that. You know, he's one 1075 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 2: of the more intimidating guys I've been around. His players 1076 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 2: really want his sense of approval. But he's one of 1077 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:56,759 Speaker 2: the most empathetic guys I've ever been around in terms 1078 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 2: of understanding what it like, what it needs to be 1079 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 2: a real man in Los ang Angelus and a young 1080 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 2: man and trying to become, you know, a superstar. 1081 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 4: And he gets that. 1082 00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:09,760 Speaker 2: And I think it's undervalued with him specifically, probably because 1083 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,200 Speaker 2: you don't really talk about those stories. But the way 1084 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:15,359 Speaker 2: that he handles players when they go through difficult times. 1085 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,959 Speaker 2: You know, Mikay Warres is an example what's been written about. 1086 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,879 Speaker 2: He's magical, he's brilliant there. And I think a lot 1087 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,040 Speaker 2: of coaches are aware of that now and you see 1088 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 2: them trying to coach the full three sixty student athlete. 1089 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 4: And be aware of it and answer your question on 1090 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 4: what do you teach them? You're teaching them what they 1091 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 4: can handle. 1092 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 2: And if you think that you're teaching them the way 1093 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 2: you call plays and your understanding of fifteen twenty thirty 1094 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,279 Speaker 2: years of coaching, then you're crazy. And You're got a 1095 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 2: kid's going to play slow and he's going to play poor, 1096 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 2: and I think you have to be able to adjust 1097 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 2: there or just get a kest to never playing a 1098 00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 2: young kid. 1099 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 1: Wow, this is all very good, very deep stuff.

It's owned by Robert Kraft, funded 1116 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 2: by him, and it's a really cool league. You know, Tennessee, 1117 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:37,840 Speaker 2: for instance, sent over their old jerseys when they changed 1118 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 2: from one brand to another. So the whole league last 1119 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,560 Speaker 2: year was rocking like old school Tennessee swag, from spikes 1120 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 2: to gloves to whatever. 1121 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 4: But it's a tackle league, it's a flag league.

He's into a lot of really cool things. 1182 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: And what I like about what he gave us this evening, 1183 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:28,840 Speaker 1: He's not just looking at it from a pure football perspective, 1184 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,800 Speaker 1: as I think is the natural impulse here on a 1185 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 1: college football show, right, he tends to look at the 1186 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 1: entire individual, learn the learner. You heard him say it 1187 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 1: a bunch of times. He's really a deep guy and 1188 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 1: comes at this from a fresh perspective, and I appreciate that. 1189 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, it can get easy to sort of look at 1190 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 3: players you cover as commodities, right, like, oh, this is 1191 00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 3: the best running back, this is this offensive line is garbage, 1192 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 3: and that they're just sort of pieces that we move 1193 00:52:57,239 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 3: around and talk about. But Yogi does I think a 1194 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 3: really good job of of understanding the people he covers, 1195 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 3: and it spends his time around.
