Speaker 1: Big Three. Oh oh, well, start fair. We're gonna have

14
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: two of the best executives maybe to ever do it

15
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: in the league. We have Hall of Fame and ductee

16
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: Ron Wolf is going to be on the program, and

17
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: then we have your guy, Howie Roseman will also join

18
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 1: the program. So excited to talk to both guys. Both

19
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: guys obviously have experienced building championship rosters. We'll get a

20
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: chance to gain some insight and share some of the

21
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: insight with our listeners. Yeah. I mean when you talk

22
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: about to Ron Wolfe, I mean you make the case

23
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: the greatest executive in NFL history, you can you can

24
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: make that claim on Ron Wolf. So you talk about

25
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: building a team, nobody knows more about that than Ron

26
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: Wolf historically. And then if we want to keep it current,

27
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: let's go Howie Roseman, who was the executive a year

28
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: coming off of a Super Bowl win. So I think

29
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 1: for a podcast that's that's run by two former NFL

30
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: scouts to get to uh, two personnel evaluators as good

31
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: as it gets there with Ron Wolf and Howie Roseman,

32
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: gonna have a lot of fun with them, plus several

33
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: other surprises coming your way on episode number three hundreds,

34
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,479
Speaker 1: So don't be be sure to not miss out on

35
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: that one. It's gonna be a fun one. And h

36
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: on today's episode, Buck, we're gonna get into the Elite eleven.

37
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: You're rocking your Elade eleven gear today, looking show a

38
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: blue Yeah, looking nice, but looking nice. I got a

39
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: chance to go out there and see Bucky and his

40
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: Element out there helping as a counselor for the Elite

41
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: eleven event. We've got plenty of content coming your way.

42
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: We lugged a bunch of views, and you've got eight

43
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: interviews with the top college quarterback UH, and Bucky's got

44
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: some great insight. Haven't been around them for the entire

45
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: weekend as well, So we'll run a couple of those interviews,

46
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: as well as interview with our pal Bruce Feldman, who

47
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,519
Speaker 1: had a chance to visit with out there at the

48
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 1: at L eleven. That's coming up a little bit later

49
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,119
Speaker 1: on UH. In the episode, we've got building a team

50
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: up the middle, something that the Bucket myself talked about

51
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 1: all the time. Championship teams are built up the middle. Buck,

52
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 1: How we're gonna get a chance to go through and

53
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: build our own team too. Defensive tackles, two inside linebackers

54
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: to safeties, that's how we would do it, Buck. Yeah,

55
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: that's exciting. I think it's really exciting when we talk

56
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 1: about building a defensive building a team up the middle

57
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: in every sport, they always talk about that's the way

58
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: you build a championship team. UH. To do it in football,

59
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: we talked about right down the middle of the d tackles,

60
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 1: the inside linebackers, and the safeties. All of those spots

61
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: are very important to being able to have a team

62
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 1: that can go to the distance. Yeah, so we're gonna

63
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: get a chance it. Look, it's baseball season, right, you

64
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 1: build your team up the middle. We're gonna do a

65
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: little bit of that ourselves, building our NFL team up

66
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: the middle. But before we get there, Buck, I want

67
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: to start right a top of the show. Uh, some

68
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 1: news that just happened. We had a Major League Baseball

69
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 1: draft took place, and probably we would not be talking

70
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: about that, even though the Padres do have three at

71
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: the top four picks, Buck, and they could be the

72
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: springboard here to a World Series champion in about five years. Uh,

73
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: just gonna be patient, patient face. But look, I know

74
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: you're a big baseball guy as well. And when you

75
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: look at the ninth overall pick in this draft for

76
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: the Oakland A's, uh, it's a named football fans are

77
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 1: quite familiar with. Yeah, Oklahoma starting quarterback Kylin Murray was

78
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: drafted ninth overall by the Oakland A's And this is

79
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: a significant story. It's a significant story on a couple

80
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: of different fronts for Oklahoma. They were anticipating Kylin Murray

81
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: being their starting quarterback. He was gonna take over for

82
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. Continue to have this offense rolling and playing

83
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 1: at a high level. Um. It's also significant because you're

84
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: talking about another multi sport athlete that baseball is embracing.

85
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: Take him ninth overall, that means you have big plans

86
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: for him. And look, he's a dynamic athlete. He was

87
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: a guy that even going through high school. Met him

88
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: in high school on the Elite eleven tour, you saw

89
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: how athletic and explosive he was talking to his dad.

90
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: His dad always talked about his love for both sports.

91
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: And now he goes from Texas and into Oklahoma, plays

92
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: on Oklahoma's team, and is worthy enough of being drafted

93
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: within the top ten. Speaks volumes about his athleticism and

94
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: what he can bring to the table. I just want

95
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 1: to selfishly have an opportunity to watch him play quarterback

96
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: because I believe he can be in It's crazy to

97
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: say this, he can be an upgrade over the Heisman

98
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: Trophy winner in terms of what he brings to the

99
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: table as a runner and a thrower in that offense

100
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: we saw. I mean, look when he got in there

101
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 1: the game that after the Kansas game, when when Baker

102
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: was suspended UH for a little bit of that following game.

103
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 1: I want to say it was West Virginia, but we

104
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: saw Kyler Murray roll out. I think that seventy yard

105
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: touchdown run. You can see the speed that he has.

106
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: It would have definitely add a new dimension with his

107
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: legs to that Oklahoma offense, which would which would be

108
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: fun to watch. But my question is, if you're looking

109
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: at this, you know, put your self in his situation,

110
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: I mean, playing quarterback at Oklahoma would be It would

111
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: be a lot of fun, no, no doubt. You got

112
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: a chance to potentially win a national championship with with

113
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: the best head coach, the best play calling head coach

114
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: in the NFL right now or in the college football

115
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: right now in Lincoln Riley, you know you're gonna be

116
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: explosive on offense. They've done a nice job recruiting. Uh

117
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: they've owned that conference. So you've got a chance to

118
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: potentially win a national championship, maybe hunt down a Heisman Trophy,

119
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 1: or you take that big cash right now and say

120
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna focus solely on baseball. That's option two or

121
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: option option number three is you try and figure out

122
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 1: a way to do both as long as you can.

123
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: What would you do? I think he's gonna try and

124
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: do both, and I would encourage him to try and

125
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 1: do both. He had similar opportunities coming out of high school.

126
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: He could have been drafted, could have um went to

127
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 1: MLB directly out of high school. But look, this is

128
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: a kid that loves football. When I tell you, UM

129
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: a talented player, a guy that really really loves and

130
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: enjoys the competition, a guy that does a proven winner

131
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: on the field. I think he may want to explore

132
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: the possibility of being that guy. And I know, naturally

133
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 1: the comparisons. Whenever you see a guy of his stature

134
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: and the way that he plays, you're gonna get some

135
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: of the Russell Wilson comparisons. I think it would be

136
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 1: intriguing to see him kind of play it out a

137
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: little bit and see if he could live up to

138
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 1: those comparisons. Maybe he could be the first guy that

139
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: could be potentially a high draft pick, a draft pick

140
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: in the pros and in the MLB draft. I think

141
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 1: it would just be exciting to see him kind of

142
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 1: maxed out his talents as a two sports star. See

143
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,799
Speaker 1: if I'm if I'm the A's and I'm gonna put

144
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: you know, four to five million dollars in your wallet.

145
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: I think if if I'm waiting from their standpoint, I'm

146
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 1: gonna say, here's the deal. We'll give you a little

147
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 1: little carrot. Here, go play this year with Oklahoma, Go

148
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: have your your experience, you know, playing big time college football.

149
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: We'll give you one of those. You go play one year,

150
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: and then after that year urs I mean, we're paying

151
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: you a lot of money here. I mean, you are

152
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 1: playing a lot of money. But they had to know

153
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: this going in, when they made the draft, they had

154
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: to know what his intentions were. I mean, obviously you're

155
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: taking a risk. Four million dollars is significant. But have

156
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: you seen with quarterbacks keet paying in the league. I

157
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: mean four million. I'm just I'm just I know they're

158
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 1: getting small. He's the smallest, right, I mean, he would

159
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: be the smallest quarterback in the National Football Light. Tomorrow,

160
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield went after Baker Mayfield goes number one. All

161
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: best are off. Everybody can play quarterback. Baker Mayfield looks

162
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 1: like Goliath next to Kyler Murray. I don't know how

163
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: tall he is. He looks when you see he's he's

164
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: he's listed at five ten and that's a very very

165
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: generous maybe five ten with his cleats on. But you know, um, dude,

166
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: Duke can spend it. Duke can run around and play.

167
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: We saw the athleticism on display Man to be a

168
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: top ten pick in baseball. That is like, think about that.

169
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: He has really really both love football. I mean, just

170
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: being out in the grasses last weekend with the Elite

171
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: eleven just got my juices flowing again. I can't wait

172
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: for the football season to get here. That being said, dude,

173
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: go be Rickey Henderson. Let's just go do it. Man

174
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: play baseball for twenty years. Man four million, four million,

175
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: four million bucks. I don't know. Yeah, I guess Oakland

176
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: and doing things outside the box. Something's never changed their

177
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: Moneyball the sequel the star of the show. So how

178
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: about this. There's another kid that was drafted uh seventeen overall.

179
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: His name is North Carolina going to play Jordan's Adams.

180
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: Jordan Adams is the son of North Carolina de line

181
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: coach Deeck Adams. Jordan Adams showed up last year. You

182
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: had a chance to watch him at the opening. He

183
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 1: was there. One of the best football players that you

184
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: will see. I think he might have been the only

185
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: player who played in the under Armour All American football

186
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: and baseball games. When he came out, he was taking

187
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: seventeen overall. I think he may be undrafted by the Twins.

188
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 1: But you're talking about yea, yeah, but this is a

189
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 1: five star football player and look it pains me, but man,

190
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: you're taking seventeenth overall. Yeah, I don't. I don't know

191
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: if he steps on campus at Cheff and plays in

192
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: because he's a player the Angels. Okay, terrific player, but

193
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: I think this goes overall. We talked about it in

194
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: the football draft. We saw a bunch of multi sport

195
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: athletes that were drafted in the first round. And we

196
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: always tell young people, continue to play all the sports

197
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: that you can. Um, it's beneficial. We're near seeing in

198
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 1: baseball this seems to be a concerted effort for those

199
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: guys to draft guys that play more than just baseball.

200
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: All the young people, all the parents of young people

201
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: that play multiple sports. Man, let him play everything. It's

202
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: so beneficially develop skills in so many different areas that

203
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: are transferable. I'm with you, go play enjoy it, enjoy

204
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: that high school experience, play with your buddies, play all

205
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: these different sports. Not only gonna have a better high

206
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: school experience, You're gonna develop yourself and develop different athletics,

207
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: skills and muscles. You wouldn't just focusing on one sport.

208
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: And I like the fact, to be honest with you,

209
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: that you're just competing. I mean, training is great and all,

210
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: but I like the fact that there's a scoreboard involved

211
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: and when you you play year round, you play all

212
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: these different sports, um, you're always playing with the scoreboard.

213
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: I think that competitiveness helps you out in the long run.

214
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: So I'm with you on that one buck. Let's transition here,

215
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: hold on, before we go on, before we go on,

216
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: I wanna hear one more time, one more time. Well,

217
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: I hate baseball. Padres suck. How to get it in there?

218
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: You love? You love that dropping. No, but we don't

219
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: suck anymore. The Padres are starting to play a little

220
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: bit better, be different. They are, they are, they are

221
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 1: playing better, but it's still looking up to a team

222
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: in l A. I think I think almost the whole

223
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: divisions under five hundred right now. So it's not like

224
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: just trying to get in the tournament, just getting the tournament.

225
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: You're right, Let's get to the NFL. Here buck building

226
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: the team up the middle. Two defensive tackles, two inside linebackers,

227
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: two safeties. Why don't you you want to start us off.

228
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you start because you're gonna take the

229
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: premiere defense tackle. Then I'll follow up after that. How

230
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: about that? Yeah, I kind of got I kind of

231
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: snuck buck you here with the big names and got

232
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: him down the sheet first before he got into the studio,

233
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: so he was left with scraps the D tackles. Like,

234
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: to me, this was of the positions. Of these three positions, DT,

235
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: inside linebacker, safeties, these were the easiest ones for me

236
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: because Aaron Donald's had given you have to put him

237
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: right at the top of the list. I don't think

238
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,599
Speaker 1: anybody would argue that. And then after Aaron Donald to me,

239
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: I put Fletcher Cox. You know, Fletcher has that inside

240
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: out side flexibility, but when you get hit a chance

241
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: to get him isolated on guards, I will take my

242
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: chances with him as the number two defensive tackle in

243
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 1: the league right now. So I would go Aaron Donald

244
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: and Fletcher Cox, and I love that combination. I like

245
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: both guys, and I think what we're going to see

246
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 1: is the theme at defensive tackle is the guy who's

247
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: playing inside needs to be able to get after the passing.

248
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: And Aaron Donald and Fletcher Cocks, you have guys that

249
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: can command uh double teams and still get you double

250
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: digit sacks from an into your position. I am going

251
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: to go with kind of the old guard at the position.

252
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Gerald McCoy and the Dominican sue.

253
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: And even though Jerald McCoy is a little older, I

254
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 1: still believe he's a dominant player. Catlike quickness off the ball,

255
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 1: great job work in his hands to get free, and

256
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: then in the Dominican sue. I think sometimes the big

257
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 1: contract overshadow what he continues to be in the league.

258
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: He is a disruptive presence at the point of attack.

259
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: Didn't necessarily live up to the contract because the numbers

260
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,079
Speaker 1: didn't necessarily match up with the big guarantees and to

261
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: pay they did. He gat from the Dolphins. But now

262
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: I think we'll have an opportunity to see him really

263
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: pin his ears back playing alongside Aaron Donald. I think

264
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: we would click quickly be reminded of why we felt

265
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: like he was deserving of being a high play defensive player.

266
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: At one time. No. Two really really good players that

267
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 1: have been consistent throughout their careers. I would throw Klais

268
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: Campbell in there again, another older player who was coming

269
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 1: off a phenomenal season, maybe the most difficult challenge just

270
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 1: because of what he does. Not only is a disruptor

271
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: in the passing game and you know, just top the

272
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: run and make plays front side and backside, but also

273
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: just being able to have that size you know, as

274
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 1: a quarterback, having to try and see through that is

275
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: not an easy task. So I throw Calais Campbell's at

276
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: It's funny, See, I didn't know what position to use

277
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: him in because he moves. I mean he plays the one,

278
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,319
Speaker 1: the three, the five, he plays all, he plays all

279
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: over the place. Yeah, he's he's down to play. But definitely,

280
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: after the last season where he had an opportunity to

281
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: really get after the quarterback and really anchored maybe the

282
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: most dominant defense in football a season ago, Calais camb

283
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: would definitely deserves a mention and maybe even a spot

284
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: on this list. Alright, no question, All right, let's get

285
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: to uh inside linebackers. I'll go first again since I

286
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: steal all the goodies. Uh Luke Keickley. You know I've

287
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: been a little bit injured throughout his career. When he's

288
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: on the field, there's nobody better. And then I would

289
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 1: say C. J. Mosley from the Ravens. That was This

290
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: was probably the toughest of the three position groups, the

291
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: inside linebacker, because there's a bunch of names. We got

292
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 1: some young athletic, fast linebackers that I could throw in

293
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: the mix here, but I went with guys I still

294
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: feel like I have plenty ahead of them, but they've

295
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: got some accomplishments as well, been in league for a

296
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: little while. I go Quickly and Mosley. I love both guys.

297
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,719
Speaker 1: Common eliminated their instincts, awareness, tackling ability. Both guys do

298
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 1: a great job of playing fast at the snap. They

299
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,719
Speaker 1: do a great job of anticipating where the ball is

300
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: going and more importantly, when they get there, they get

301
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: they were bad intentions, but they do a great job

302
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: of getting guys to the ground. I'm gonna go with

303
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: two names, um pretty solid names. I don't know if

304
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: the necessarily the household names. I'm gonna go with Sean

305
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: Lee and Eric Kendricks and Sean Lee. I'm going with

306
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,719
Speaker 1: a guy when he's healthy, you could argue that he's

307
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: right there with the top three or four at the position.

308
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: It's really a travesty that he hasn't been necessarily a

309
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl player. Injuries have kind of kept him off

310
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: those lists. But we've seen when Dallas has Shawn Lee

311
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: and the Fold, they are completely different defense. And Eric Kendricks,

312
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:15,719
Speaker 1: I think he's a guy that kind of flies under

313
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: the radar. Just sound a big deal, but his ability

314
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: to command tackler, tackle box. He's physical, he's rugged, natural leader.

315
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: I think he is one of the reasons the Minnesota

316
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: Vikings play such good defense up there. Yeah, I wrote

317
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 1: down if I was you going to kind of go

318
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: in the third and fourth place for me, Shaun Lee

319
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: was was my fourth guy I would have mentioned, and

320
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: then I Telvin Smith. I mean, I keep jacks there.

321
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: You can make a case for the Jags with that

322
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: front seven. They got a lot of names in consideration,

323
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: uh for being the top players in the league. So

324
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: that's the That's another name I would throw in there.

325
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: Tevan Smith. Just the way the games played today, the range,

326
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: the speed, what he does in coverage, He's he's pretty

327
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: special player. Absolutely, he can run it down and you

328
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: know what he is is really the new school linebacker

329
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: um to fifteen two tw anny, where you play the

330
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: premium on speed, quickness, and exploseness more so on book. Um,

331
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: we're having to rechange. We have to kind of change

332
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: our minds in terms of what we look for the position.

333
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: It used to be a can they get off? Can

334
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: they shed? No one really cares about that anymore. They

335
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: have to be able to play coverage. Can they run sideline?

336
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: The sideline? And if you use them as a blitzer,

337
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 1: can they get home and be disruptive? Those other criteria

338
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: that you're now looking for in your inside linebackers. Yeah,

339
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: we talked about it every spring in the draft. Run

340
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: cover and hit. That's all I need you to do.

341
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: A run covered, hit. I don't need you to come

342
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: down and and bang. That's that's old school football. It's

343
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: not the way the game's played anymore. So run cover, blitz,

344
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: That's that's what you want from your linebackers. I think

345
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: this group of guys we mentioned handle all those things

346
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: quite well. Let's get to the safeties here, Buck, I

347
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: want Harrison Smith from the Vikings again. Themes you could

348
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: you could have made a case for Lynnville Joseph as

349
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: a defensive tackle. You talked about kendrickson linebacker. I go

350
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: to safety with Harrison Smith, and I'll go a guy

351
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: that maybe kind of fell off the radar a little

352
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: bit last year, but I still think one of the

353
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: elite player is in the league. That's Landing Colins. So

354
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: I go Harrison Smith and Landon Collins because I love

355
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 1: the versatility to be whole players, to be forced players

356
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: and also play high if you want them to. I

357
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: love the versatility I get with those two guys. Both

358
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: of those guys are terrific because they are very versatile

359
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: and how they play the game. They can play UH

360
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: in the deep middle, they can play UH in the hole.

361
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: They can come down and affect the game as blitzers

362
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: off the edge and also play as run defenders. That's

363
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: the kind of versatility that you have to have. And

364
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: speaking of versatility, I think the guys that I'm about

365
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: to mention are a little longer in the tooth, but

366
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: they still remain guys that you want to have if

367
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: you're starting the team. Earl Thomas and Honey Badger, Tyron

368
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: Matthew and Earl Thomas. I'm still saying that you have

369
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,359
Speaker 1: the best center field safety that you can find. His instincts,

370
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: his awareness, his ball skills, his range from numbers to

371
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: numbers makes it very, very tough to throw on a

372
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: Seattle defense. UH, particularly down the middle. Love his awareness

373
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: in the games that he plays with the quarterback and

374
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: Tyron Matthew. He's slowing down. He's not necessarily the most

375
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 1: ynamic athlete, the dynamic athlete that he once was prior

376
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: to the injuries, but still the versatility that he displayed

377
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: early in his career. I believe we'll see an even

378
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: better version of Honey Badge now that he's really in

379
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 1: a one dimensional role as a strong safety. This is

380
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 1: a guy that is always around the ball, does a

381
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: great job of knocking it out. I still believe he's

382
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: one of the most instinctive football players that I've ever scouted.

383
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:23,680
Speaker 1: I still have to put him on the list when

384
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: we're talking about building down the middle. I love those

385
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: two guys. UH. You talk about just the speed, athleticism

386
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: and awareness that they bring UH perfect high safeties. I

387
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: love what they bring to the mix. I think a

388
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,479
Speaker 1: couple of names we need to throw in there. Kevin Byard,

389
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: who has been ultra productive with the Tennessee Titans. Outstanding

390
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: young safety. Uh, your guy Eric Weddle who just continues

391
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: to do it no matter who with the Chargers, now

392
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: with the Ravens, always around the football. Malcolm Jenkins for

393
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: the World Champs there the Eagles, has that versatility. You shoot,

394
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: you can play him outside at corner, in the slot,

395
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: at nickel, you play them high safety, low safety. He

396
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: can do a little bit of everything. So it's a

397
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 1: it's a really wrong group of safeties around the league

398
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: right now. And I'm excited to see. You know, we

399
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 1: talked about some these sophomores that can make a big

400
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: jump up. Let's see in Indianapolis, if they can keep

401
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: our guy healthy, Malik Hooker for a full year, what

402
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 1: kind of production he can give us? Oh? Absolutely, I

403
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: mean we talked about these new school safeties that are

404
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: coming into the league. MALIEK. Cooker. We got a glimpse

405
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: of it when he was on the field. We've seen

406
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 1: the athleticism to play making ability, uh in the defense

407
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 1: that is really going to be remade and and it's

408
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: going to put him in a position to make a

409
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 1: ton of plays on the ball. We could see him

410
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 1: be a double digit interception guy uh in year two

411
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: and then some of the other guys Jamal Adams being

412
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: able to come down hill and play and be a

413
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 1: versatile player. Um, I think we have to bring up

414
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 1: Keian O'Neil, even though he's not a classic traditional safety,

415
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: what he brings he brings a level of toughness and

416
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: physicality to the position that every defensive coordinator wants. So

417
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 1: many different guys that you can throw in there. Is

418
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: funny because the market for safeties has been a little

419
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: soft in terms of paying uh big money for those guys.

420
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,360
Speaker 1: But the players, the players, athletics, it's an outstanding crew

421
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: of safeties that are playing in the league today. How

422
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: about Derwin James the years of rookie is gonna be

423
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: fun to watch him man as well. So it looks

424
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 1: the safe positions in great shape around the NFL and

425
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,679
Speaker 1: looking forward to watching those guys. But we do believe

426
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: you build that team up the middle. That's how we

427
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: would build it with the defensive lineman, linebackers and safeties.

428
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 1: Buck let's get let's get back to the college game

429
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: here for a minute. Elite eleven took place over the weekend.

430
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: For those that don't know, as some NFL fans out there,

431
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: they've never heard the phrase at lead eleven. What is it?

432
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: What is it? What it's about? How launt you film

433
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 1: in here? You know, Elite eleven is really um a

434
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: long time coming, maybe twenty years of this, all the

435
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: way back in the days when Bob Johnson, who is

436
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: Rob Johnson, late of the Jackson with Jaguars in the

437
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, his dad using years ago when Nike first

438
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: started doing the tour. Uh, they used to go around

439
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: and just do all positions, but they wanted to do

440
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,360
Speaker 1: something different for the quarterbacks. Bob Johnson, Andy Bark that crew.

441
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 1: They created Elite eleven, which allowed them to go all

442
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: over the country, work out some of the quarterbacks and

443
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: name the top eleven quarterbacks high school quarterbacks in the

444
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: country each year. It is since grown, brought on so

445
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: many more guys. Trent Dilford is now the head coach.

446
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: He and his staff and all the other coaches that

447
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 1: work together oversee the process. And I've recently just become

448
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,400
Speaker 1: a part of just the evaluation process. And I can

449
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: tell you these quarterbacks that we're seeing. I know, we

450
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: talked about the quarterback position and oh, there's so few

451
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the National Football League that are at elite level.

452
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,159
Speaker 1: I can say this, the game has never had the

453
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 1: quarterbacks better trained, better prepared to have success than they

454
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: do now. You had an opportunity to see these guys

455
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: in action, and I can tell you the way they

456
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 1: throw it today is far different than they went in.

457
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 1: Quarterbacks used to throw it twenty years ago. These guys

458
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: have all the tools plus the athletic um. I believe

459
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 1: the future is right with the quarterbacks that we're seeing

460
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: coming down the pipeline. Yeah. I I've really enjoyed it.

461
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it's something I've heard about forever. You've been

462
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 1: involved it for a long time. But uh, I've just

463
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: over the last two years. Last year got a chance

464
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: to go to the opening watch you do your thing,

465
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: and watch these guys and see the training that they get.

466
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: And then just this past weekend to go to Los

467
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: Angeles and see the finals. They're uh, just a very

468
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: very small dose of exposure for me. But man, I'm

469
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: I love it. I think you're right. I think these

470
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: guys are getting outstanding training on the field, but I

471
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 1: love what you guys are doing with them off the

472
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: field to get them ready for everything. That comes along

473
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: with the position. It's not just it's not just a

474
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 1: position you play on the grass. That's an all encompassing

475
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 1: position off the field. And I think you guys have

476
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,239
Speaker 1: done a tremendous job of helping these guys. And you

477
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 1: use the term tools, giving them the proper tools. I

478
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: love that. I mean, it's fantastic. Every year he gets

479
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,959
Speaker 1: better because you're right behind the scenes and one time

480
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: we gotta get you behind the scenes so you kind

481
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 1: of see what goes on. But the things that these

482
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: guys are able to work with with with the young quarterbacks,

483
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: teaching them leadership ability, working on their mental training and

484
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: toughness and preparedness, UM, teaching them servant leadership, how to

485
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,360
Speaker 1: go out in the community and use their stature they're

486
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: standing in their community to really better the part of it.

487
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: This year the theme was I am, we are I Am.

488
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 1: They wanted to have everyone clearly to find who they are,

489
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: UM to find what's there, why why are they um

490
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: doing the things that they do, And then we are

491
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: how they can be a part of a bigger community

492
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 1: to really help uh the community become the best communities

493
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: that they can become. And so I just kind of

494
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: love what these guys are doing. Um, yes, it's about football,

495
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 1: but it's also about helping young men find themselves and

496
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: find their voice in the community and how they can

497
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 1: serve And so it's terrific hearing so many stories that

498
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 1: they bring together and then watching those guys compete on

499
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: the field. And no doubt the quarterback is gonna have

500
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 1: a platform at the collegiate level as well as the

501
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 1: NFL level. So figuring out the best way to use

502
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: that platform for good, Uh, that's outstanding. I love that

503
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: that topic to get them going there at the lead level,

504
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 1: I want to get into those buck what we saw

505
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 1: from these guys on the field, because we did get

506
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: a chance to see these college quarterbacks or eight eight

507
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 1: of them there as counselors, got a chance to see

508
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: them go through a kind of a mock pro day

509
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,199
Speaker 1: there with with Trent Dilford and George Palmer's out there,

510
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: George Whitfield, a lot of the top quarterback guys around

511
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: the country involved with the Lead of leven got to

512
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: see them go through a pro day session. So, uh,

513
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,479
Speaker 1: you've got a chance to visit these guys off the

514
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 1: field during the week. I got a chance to to

515
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 1: interview them. We're gonna roll some of those interviews on

516
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 1: today's episode. We'll save some more and kind of release

517
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: them as we go through the summer here. But let's

518
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: start with what we saw on the field, and why

519
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: don't you start us off there. We kind of roll

520
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 1: through these guys went through eight, not in any particular order,

521
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 1: just what we thought of their workouts. You know, it

522
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: was interesting, like the best part of UH being around

523
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: the college guys has been around them. Send him interact

524
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: with all the people. Uh. We did have it. Before

525
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: I talked about the workout, we had a college roundtable

526
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,239
Speaker 1: and at the college roundtable, I forgot to even tell

527
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,959
Speaker 1: you this. At the college roundtable, we had Jared Goff

528
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: and former San Francisco forty nine as general manager Trent Baky.

529
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: Talked to the guys about what are the next up,

530
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: what's coming, what's on the horizon, how to handle all

531
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 1: of the challenges and difficulties of being a QB one UH.

532
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:08,959
Speaker 1: And I'll say this about Jared Golf, Like you know

533
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,679
Speaker 1: Jared obviously pretty well, having been around him, I know

534
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: him pretty well, watched him through this process. Man, the

535
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: maturity that he's displayed in just like a year or

536
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,400
Speaker 1: two in the league, talking about the process, how much

537
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 1: is demanded of him, how much the preparation and film study,

538
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: the work ethic, how you're always on as a franchise quarterback,

539
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: and how he had to embrace the work part of it.

540
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 1: To hear him share those stories to the guys that

541
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 1: we're talking about, the Jared Stidhems, the Drew locks, um,

542
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:42,439
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurds, to uh all the other quarterbacks that were there. Um,

543
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: it was really enlightened. It really gave me more perspective

544
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,239
Speaker 1: when I'm looking at quarterbacks. The maturity part of it

545
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: really really matters. That God has to be the face

546
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: of your franchise. He needs to be presidential in his approach,

547
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 1: because when you're giving him not only the twenty million

548
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: dollar check to represent the franchise, but you're annointing him

549
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 1: the leader of the team, you want to be confident.

550
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: They got to handle all the responsibility to come along

551
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 1: with that, No, no question, I thought. Speaking with Jared.

552
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: First of all, first thing I said was I don't

553
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:16,959
Speaker 1: recognize you. You're not in your disguise from Phenomenal. If

554
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: you haven't seen that YouTube, that thing, it's outstanding. Uh,

555
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: to see golf dressed up in disguise and showing up

556
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: at a junior college is some transfer and making fun

557
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,360
Speaker 1: of all the guys on the team because they aren't

558
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 1: good enough to play with him. It's great. You have

559
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 1: to go check that out. But anyways, it was great

560
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: to catch up with Jared. He's in a good spot

561
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 1: right now. You can tell he's he's got a nice mixture.

562
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 1: He's very comfortable who he is. He's very confident. He's

563
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: a funny dude. For those that don't know him, just

564
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: being around him, he's got he's got a we talk

565
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: about sneaky athleticism. We don't talk about other people do sneaky,

566
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 1: funny deared golf. Great, great dude. So it's good to

567
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: visit with him. Let's start though back with some of

568
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,120
Speaker 1: these college kids here. I thought, just watching all these

569
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: guys spend it, it it was some impressive displays. But if

570
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 1: you said there was one prototypical next of a quarterback

571
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: there just based off of one workout, and look it.

572
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 1: Take it for what it is. It's just a workout

573
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: in shorts, but based off one workout, kind of cutting

574
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 1: the image of the quarterback with the size of the arm,

575
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: strength and build and move a little bit. I thought

576
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: Jared stid him from Auburn was was very impressive. I

577
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,120
Speaker 1: thought he was very impressive. I'm now looking back at

578
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: my notes. I made notes on my phone when he

579
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 1: was throwing. Man, I said, a plus arm talent. Love

580
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 1: the rhythm uh that he throws and plays with. I

581
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:28,119
Speaker 1: think he can drive and finesse throws. You mentioned this

582
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,119
Speaker 1: while we were watching them together. Firm base meaning just

583
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 1: real firm and solid. He kind of plays the position

584
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: like an NFL quarterback. And finally I wrote, Man, this

585
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: dude looks the part. I believe he looks like you

586
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 1: expect your franchise quarterbacks to look. The way he carries

587
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: himself to where he walks, the way he's built, the

588
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: way he throws the ball. He reminds me of a

589
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: prose pro And because of that, um, it's going to

590
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 1: be a little easier for me to kind of take

591
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,719
Speaker 1: the evaluation of him out of the urban offense and

592
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 1: project him to what he could be and maybe more

593
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: of a traditional offense, because he certainly has all the

594
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 1: tools to be a really, really good player at the

595
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 1: next level. Yeah, I would say, look his arm is

596
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: not quite at the Josh Allen level, but I didn't

597
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 1: think it was that far off. And just the way

598
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,160
Speaker 1: he spun the ball, I mean, like if you talked

599
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 1: about baseball for a second, they talked about spin rate

600
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: with curveballs, talking about quarterbacks. Just the spin that he

601
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 1: gets on the ball, he throws a tight ball. It's pretty, very, pretty,

602
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 1: very Um. The thing was it it comes out with

603
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 1: plenty of pace, but it's also catchable. When I talked

604
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: to some of the guys that were catching balls, when

605
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: they said, man, it's it's so crazy to watch the

606
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: difference between high school guys and college guys. But the

607
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 1: guys that we had out there, he was like, the

608
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 1: ball is in the right spot with the right field,

609
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: they can take it off. Um. That was the big

610
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 1: thing that I was impressed in him. I felt like

611
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: he understood what he needed on each throw and he

612
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,439
Speaker 1: delivered it with just enough to make it easy for

613
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: the receiver. How about Drew Lock from Missouri, who was

614
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: I think probably the biggest guy there. When you say,

615
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 1: I mean it's just a big, tall, uh good looking kid,

616
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: who's who's Who's got plenty of velocity? I thought the

617
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: ball was a little bit loose. I didn't think he

618
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: was quite as crisp as said. I'm just from a

619
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 1: footwork standpoint, but man, he's a big, imposing dude, and

620
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: I really did enjoy talking with him. We'll roll that

621
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: interview on a podcast here coming up soon, but we're

622
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: your thoughts on Drew Locked. You know. The big thing

623
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 1: on Drew Lock. I think he kind of falls into

624
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: the category of potential over production. A lot of people

625
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: gonna beat him up over the completion percentage in like

626
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 1: mid fifties, which certainly isn't necessarily what you want. But

627
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: then when you see him on on the field, you

628
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: have to remember, I think this dude was a three

629
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 1: sport athlete in high school. I know he's a really

630
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 1: really good basketball player. He's still kind of new to

631
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: the position. The arm talent is there, You are right,

632
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 1: Sometimes his ball kind of wabbled a little bit, wasn't

633
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: as tight. But I think anybody who has a reasonable

634
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 1: coaching staff for has some development skills. We'll look at him, say, man,

635
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 1: imagine what he could be in two or three years

636
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 1: down the road if he's not necessarily thrust onto the field.

637
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of intriguing tools he brings

638
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: to the table. Um, I think someone is going to

639
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: be really really excited about his potential. Wants to see

640
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 1: how he does this year with Derek Dooley in that offense?

641
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 1: Can he approve on the completion percentage? If you can

642
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: do that? Man, I think we're talking about a guy

643
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: that has an opportunity to be one of the first

644
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: guys off the board. Yeah, it's gonna be fun to

645
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 1: watch him develop over the year. Next one on the

646
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: list was kind of a funny story. So while we're

647
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: you know, you're out there on the field, I'm off

648
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 1: to the side. I'm grabbing these guys in interviewed him,

649
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: just one after another, and there's somebody kind of standing

650
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: off the side. We finished interview, so then me and

651
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: seller are just sitting there, you know, shooting a breeze,

652
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 1: and then this guy goes, hey, you you want to

653
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: talk to me? And I looked over him. He's got

654
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: short hair, he's got a beard, he's got his hat

655
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: on backwards, he's got sunglasses on. He clipped a long hair,

656
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: so that in defense, Yeah, I threw us off. He

657
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: changed his look, uh, and so we kind of looked

658
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: at him He's like, well, well it sticks out his

659
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: hand will greer. I go, yeah, actually, we we would

660
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: like to talk to you. Didn't recognize you there. So anyways,

661
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 1: he had a fun personality. He's got it. Definitely has

662
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 1: of all the guys as the most swagger to him,

663
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: and he's got a little edge to him, which I liked.

664
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's a confident kid. Uh. You know,

665
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: I just I enjoyed visiting with him. And then we

666
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: got out to the workout session Buck. I thought what

667
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: he did everything was just free and easy, very smooth,

668
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: free and easy. The ball jumps out of his hand.

669
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: I thought he was really good in the movement portion

670
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: of the workout as well. Oh man, this dude is talented.

671
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: Just dude is a legitimate stud. When I watched him

672
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: over the summer, before we even saw him live, I

673
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: thought he had an opportunity to be one of the

674
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 1: top guys uh in next year's draft. He is an

675
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: easy thrower. He can make every throw in the book.

676
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: He can throw it uh with touch, time and anticipation,

677
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: he can fire it in. He also can finesse it um.

678
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: His ability to make those throws uh really really popped

679
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 1: to me. When I watched him in the workout, I

680
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 1: think he's one of the more talented guys in the class.

681
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 1: And for a guy is I wonna call him a

682
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 1: little guy, but he's not necessarily the prototypical six four

683
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: or whatever quarterback. I think he fits in well. I

684
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 1: think there are a lot of a lot of things

685
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: that he brings that officer coordinators will be very very

686
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: excited about. Let's get to the two Alabama quarterback because

687
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: we had him both there. Uh to a Tongo by

688
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: Loa who everybody knows about what he did in the

689
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 1: championship game taking over for Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts always

690
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: done his win football games. I enjoyed visiting with both

691
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 1: those guys. Jalen Hurts uh fewer words. I mean, he's

692
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: very very business like to the point, but a big,

693
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 1: physical looking kid. And I love the way that he's

694
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 1: he's put together. And then I do like very serious minded,

695
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: but I was I was cool with that. We got it.

696
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: We've got some sound coming up with him a little

697
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: bit later where you're gonna hear a funny story from him,

698
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 1: So a very serious interview outside of one uh specific

699
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: story which I think you guys will enjoy. And then

700
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: to Ah was as advertised. I mean we're sitting there

701
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: watching him throw buck and you said, this guy is

702
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: the left handed Russell Wilson, and I'm like, dude, that

703
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: is that is the perfect call because uh kind of

704
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: kind of looks like him with his footwork of the

705
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 1: ball pops like it did with Russell Wilson. But even

706
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: more than that, get a chance to visit with him.

707
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: He's he's just like Russell Wilson. You put this guy

708
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: up in front of a group, he's gonna be just fine.

709
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: Um had definitely has a presence about him and authenticity

710
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: about him that I remember when Russell was coming out.

711
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: That got to everybody fired up. Yeah, he has everything.

712
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 1: He has everything that you want to I mean that

713
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: you want at the position to it can make all

714
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 1: the throws. He is left handed, He has a quick

715
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: whip ball, has plenty of space, it kind of explodes

716
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: off his hand. Is a really good athlete. Is funny though,

717
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: because he's a better athlete in action than he is

718
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: when he tests. Um you can see and you can

719
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: see when he moves around, Uh, different level of twitch

720
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: when he's playing and performing under pressure. Great character, Uh,

721
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: exemplary kid um And I think you see that, and

722
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 1: I think what was interesting to watch the two Alabama

723
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: guys interact. You would think there would be a little

724
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 1: bit of a robbery. You think there will still be

725
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 1: some tension between them, and there's none of that. Like

726
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: two is the first guy to co congratulate Jalen. Jalen

727
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: is the first guy to meet to a very unique guys.

728
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: And so let me say this about Jalen. Jalen throw

729
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 1: the ball uh a little better than I anticipated. I

730
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 1: thought that he may struggle a little bit thrown, but look,

731
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 1: he spun it spunny, really really well when he had

732
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: his opportunity to go in pro day. Is he to

733
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 1: throw it that some of these other guys are. I

734
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: wouldn't say he's in that class, but I will say

735
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 1: that I saw um better than functional passer. Of course

736
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: there's there's nobodies around, but he threw it much better

737
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 1: than I anticipated based on some of the things that

738
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 1: you hear and read about him during his time at Alabama.

739
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 1: And then before we move on from these Alabama guys,

740
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: real quick to his little brother was there as a

741
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 1: high schooler, is going to be going to Alabama thoughts

742
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: on him. Man Leah is the right hand aversion of

743
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 1: tow of. Both of those guys are very very talented. Uh,

744
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: they're blessed in terms of the way that they throw

745
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: the ball. You talk about two of the strongest arms

746
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 1: that we saw throughout the weekend. They can make all

747
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: of those throws and it comes with zip, becomes with pop.

748
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: They can fire it in there. And so very impressed

749
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: with two of But his little brother Man might be

750
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 1: the next coming. Yeah, he's fun to watch him. I

751
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: got to see a little bit of his his workout

752
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: and bold definitely does jump off his hands. Although let's

753
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: just so the high school kids real quick, just so

754
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: I'm not crazy. Last year was my first year going

755
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: to this thing and watching it. And last year when

756
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 1: you had Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence. Uh, and the

757
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: portion of the high schools I saw this year, I

758
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 1: did not think we had anybody that caliber in this camp.

759
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: Am I off there? Uh? No, you're not off. I

760
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 1: think Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence were special. I think

761
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: they're to it. The guys that we may talk about

762
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: always being a tie to one another, just like Jered

763
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: Golf and Carson Wentz are one too and there forever linked.

764
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: I think Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence will be forever

765
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: linked as they make their way throughout this process. I

766
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: think in this year's class, what you had were a

767
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 1: lot of very very solid quarterbacks, guys with some special abilities. Uh.

768
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 1: Spencer Rattler from Arizona is talented can thrower. He's the

769
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 1: next Oklahoma quarterback if he stays to his commitment in

770
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: terms of being a little undersized but can sling it

771
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 1: all over the yard. Bow Knicks was very very impressive. UH.

772
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: Son of Patrick Nicks who played at Auburn. He is

773
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 1: committed to go to Auburn, big time player. When you

774
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: talk to the kids and you asked him who is

775
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: a quarterback that you would pick outside of yourself to

776
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: be a franchise quarterback, his name came up time and

777
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: time again. And then uh, locally because we're in southern California.

778
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: Ryan Hilinski from Orange Lutheran really pop. This is a

779
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 1: guy that big, strong, m thrower. I known really really well,

780
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 1: having coached both of his brothers in the high school. UM,

781
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 1: he has an opportunity. He's more of an old school

782
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: traditional quarterback, but look those three guys kind of stood up,

783
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: But there are a ton of guys that stood out,

784
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: from Evans to j Daniels, on and on and all

785
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: Sam Howell. These are the quarterbacks that we will hear

786
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 1: about the next three, four or five years. These guys

787
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 1: all are pretty salented in there. Oh right. I look

788
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: forward to watching those guys developed there in their college careers.

789
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: A couple more college kids we saw out there. I

790
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: thought the best story just from the throwing session. And

791
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 1: this probably took a couple of hours for all these

792
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: college kids to get to this workout. Uh, you had,

793
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,319
Speaker 1: we had Trace McSorley from Penn State. Will get to him,

794
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: but Mackenzie Melton from UCF was the story of the

795
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 1: day to me because he's look, he's he looks like

796
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: he's five tennis, five ten and a half, maybe right

797
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: off five eleven at the absolute tops. Uh. And then

798
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,280
Speaker 1: right when he's getting ready to throw after the Alabama

799
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: kids or I guess Jalen Hurts had already thrown, and

800
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:11,399
Speaker 1: so Trent Dilfer goes, well, we got another national champ

801
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,399
Speaker 1: to throw, and so kind of played up the whole

802
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: u CF thing and and everybody kind of laughed it

803
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: off and McKenzie Mountain gets up there, and I don't

804
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,720
Speaker 1: know what I was expecting, but based off of his size,

805
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 1: his size to velocity ratio was off the charts. His

806
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: first throw, I was like whoa and hit elstited some

807
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 1: some some woes from the fellow college quarterbacks as well

808
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 1: as all the counselors he had. I would say he

809
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: had a top three workout of all the eight quarterbacks

810
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 1: out there. He went out of his hand, the ball

811
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 1: pops out of his hand. He won the Pro Day,

812
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: He scored the most points on uh, the criteria to

813
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: scoring system that we used to crate all those quarterbacks. Look,

814
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 1: it popped, and it popped even more impressive than I

815
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,800
Speaker 1: remember it popping at the Peach Bowl when I watched

816
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 1: him shred Auburn. Look, I can can spend it, And

817
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: I think, Uh, the thing was, it's so funny when

818
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: you love seeing guys throw a lot, You love seeing

819
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 1: a bunch of quarterbacks go back to back because you

820
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: can see his arm strength. His arm talent was up there,

821
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: and I felt bad for Trace was sorely having to

822
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 1: go after him, because, um, the buzz in the stands,

823
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 1: the buzz everywhere was all about Mackenzie Milton. Tracey did

824
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,320
Speaker 1: a good job. But man, when you look at Mackenzie

825
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 1: Milton throw it kind of overshadows a lot of the

826
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 1: guys that came after him. All Right, the uh who

827
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,919
Speaker 1: I'm missing? We at Wilkins here, Wilkins here from Arizona State.

828
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: Where your thoughts on him? You know? Manny Wilkins was solid.

829
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 1: Like one thing that I would take away from the

830
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: weekend with Manny is Manny was a guy that really

831
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: really uh kind of dove into the process of trying

832
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: to learn everything that he could learn about the process.

833
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: Asked a lot of questions, asked a lot of good questions,

834
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 1: very communicative in terms of his approach. Um, he has

835
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,399
Speaker 1: a chance. I think the big thing at Arizona State.

836
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 1: What you want to see from him? Uh? Can it

837
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,840
Speaker 1: match up? A little up and down sometimes as a

838
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 1: player in Arizona always been regarded as one of the

839
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: more talented guys. Canny put it all together and be

840
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,239
Speaker 1: a high level quarterback in the packed up. One thing

841
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: I know he can do because we have the proof

842
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 1: and we'll roll it on interview here in an upcoming episode.

843
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: I asked him at the top of the interview, Buck

844
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: to give me a Herm Edwards, and already it was.

845
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 1: It was very impressive. It was for impression as far

846
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 1: as impressions go. The content was great, the voice inflection

847
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 1: was outstanding, the delivery, every everything about it it was.

848
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: It was phenomenal. So if if Arizona State fans, if

849
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 1: your quarterback can deliver the football as accurately as he

850
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: delivers an impression of your head coach, it's gonna be

851
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,959
Speaker 1: a big year forks up for the sun Devils. Yeah,

852
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 1: that'd be funny. It's funny after semester he already has

853
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 1: it down. That's that's that was good, trust me. They

854
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,840
Speaker 1: describe the relationship well, Herm describes the relationship as a marriage.

855
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: They talk every day evidently, so he's got a they

856
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,280
Speaker 1: they're line of communication. He's he's got enough talking with

857
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,280
Speaker 1: with him to get get a good impression down for sure.

858
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 1: Every day. Yep, it is phenomenal. And I mentioned that

859
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna roll some some sound here. Uh, here's what

860
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna do here, let's go. I got a chance

861
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,400
Speaker 1: to visit with Bruce Felman, one of the creamier voices

862
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 1: of college football, works for Fox sports on the sidelines.

863
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: He's uh at the athletic he does a great job.

864
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 1: Just one of the best writers. He's dialed in. He's

865
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,879
Speaker 1: always been involved with the quarterbacks, especially has his book

866
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: on the QB's gotta check that out if you haven't already. Um,

867
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:17,360
Speaker 1: it's phenomenal. So I got a chance to visit with

868
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: Bruce for a little bit on the sidelines. So we'll

869
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: roll that and follow that up with with one of

870
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 1: these player interviews with Will Greer, the quarterback from West Virginia.

871
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 1: Here's our here's our chat, my chat with Bruce Felton. Bruce,

872
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 1: how you doing, man, I'm doing awesome. We're watching football

873
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:33,839
Speaker 1: on a Saturday night. How good is this? The weather

874
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: is phenomenal. We've got most of the top college quarterbacks

875
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,879
Speaker 1: warming up here on one side of the field. We've

876
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 1: got the top high school quarterbacks going the other direction.

877
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 1: How long have you been coming out and doing the

878
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: elite eleven fingers? Uh? You know it's it's bounced around

879
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: different areas. But I remember one of the times when

880
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers was a counselor Kyle Orton, because afterwards a

881
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: sports was way more informal. E sports was one of

882
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: the sponsors, and so one of the guys and I

883
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 1: went out golfing and so it's me and Aaron Rodgers

884
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: against Brian Molison who was the a sports guy and

885
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 1: Orton and we crushed them and so and that best

886
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: ball or do you guys play straight? Uh? No, it was,

887
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 1: it was straight, but we were just you know, if

888
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 1: we were playing for a lot of money, they would

889
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 1: have lost a lot of money that so, but uh,

890
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: you know, back then it was so low key, you know,

891
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 1: as in Orange County it was. It was very under

892
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: the radar. Nobody came to it. Bob Johnson, you know,

893
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 1: long time, yes, successful high school coach, really ran everything.

894
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: He was kind of in the trent role and he

895
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 1: was the only real instructor. Now they would have counselors

896
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 1: out there, but it was crazy. One of the years,

897
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: maybe a couple of years later, it was out at

898
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 1: Soca University and a Lisa Viejo um So JaMarcus Russell

899
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: is one of the counselors and one of the guys there.

900
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:55,800
Speaker 1: Basically he made him go these midnight taco bell runs

901
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,759
Speaker 1: and so during the day, Ja Marcus would be in

902
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 1: when I was like almost like wrestling in suits. It

903
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 1: was like the world's biggest glad bag, you know, and

904
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 1: he's I don't know, he's probably six six to seventy then,

905
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: but he had the strongest arm I'd ever seen. And

906
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,440
Speaker 1: then they had still the best one I've seen to

907
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,000
Speaker 1: this day, you know. And the other one who had

908
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: a huge arm mallet was Ryan Mollot was a counselor there,

909
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: or was not a counselor. He was a high school juniors,

910
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 1: a ball boy, but he was a huge kid. And

911
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 1: I just remember they would have these targets and the

912
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,720
Speaker 1: ball would hit the ground and skip with such velocity,

913
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,320
Speaker 1: like take the skin off these these like eighth graders

914
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 1: trying to trying to field them. My last line of

915
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: my JaMarcus Russell report was there are some quarterbacks that

916
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,720
Speaker 1: can make all the throws. JaMarcus Russell makes throws. Nobody

917
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 1: else can make you go back. I think it was

918
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,720
Speaker 1: they they play Notre Dame. Is like backfoot, backfoot throws,

919
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,919
Speaker 1: cross field throws, just ridiculous. Yeah. I was just gonna

920
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:47,800
Speaker 1: say against his weight, but his weight was like it

921
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:51,880
Speaker 1: was a normal person. Uh as we as we kind

922
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,720
Speaker 1: of look forward to this colored football season and I'm excited.

923
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:55,840
Speaker 1: I felt like we're finally getting the draft behind us

924
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 1: now and getting a chance to to look ahead. Just

925
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 1: looking at the schedule, talking to some of these quarterbacks

926
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 1: that are here, and I see we have you know,

927
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,839
Speaker 1: Washington and Auburn week one. How great is that? Yeah?

928
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 1: And to me that's a huge statement where West Coast guys. Obviously,

929
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 1: it was awful Bowl season for the Pack one and eight.

930
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: Probably yeably, but it was it was bad because you

931
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 1: had you know, USC ghost to Ohio State doesn't look good.

932
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 1: There were some some ugly, ugly results. And I think

933
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 1: Washington's gonna be really good. I was up there a

934
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,280
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. I think they're a legit playoff team.

935
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: Obviously Jared Stidham is here, he's really good. They do

936
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,760
Speaker 1: have to replace some good skill guys, and that's basically

937
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 1: a home game for them, go play them in Atlanta.

938
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 1: But I suld secondary just from talking to a buddies

939
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 1: around the league that have started doing some homework on

940
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,879
Speaker 1: next year's guys, said, there's the Washington secondaries loaded. Yeah.

941
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 1: They got a kid a couple of years ago from

942
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: Phoenix who's a stud. Now he's not huge but he's

943
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 1: probably five eleven, really good. There's a kid. I would

944
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:54,480
Speaker 1: be surprised if the scouts had him on the radar

945
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:55,880
Speaker 1: yet because I think this will be the year he

946
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 1: blows up six three corner. Uh. There was questions about

947
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: his ball skills a little bit, and he had more

948
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 1: picks than anybody like Jimmy Lake, who's you know, the

949
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,839
Speaker 1: one of the best defensive back coaches. Now he's a DC. Yeah,

950
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 1: he's on it, and I think that's the reason why

951
00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 1: they're doing so. Obviously they don't have vida vea there,

952
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 1: but if they can get some receivers to stuff up,

953
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 1: and obviously that's no sure thing, I think they have

954
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 1: a legit chance to do some damage in the playoff

955
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 1: Notre Dame Michigan Week one. We'll see what happens with

956
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: Shaye Patterson. I mean the ball jumps out of his hand.

957
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:33,479
Speaker 1: He would like this. He's probably your height seven maybe

958
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: not his dashing a tick under six to six two

959
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 1: in the program, but he's got you know, he had

960
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 1: good receivers. I had great receivers at all. Miss He's

961
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 1: got good receivers. But they got to grow up. Um,

962
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 1: you know, how many how many new coaches they have

963
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,320
Speaker 1: there on this offensive staff. Yeah, I know, wellcaw, the

964
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 1: Macawaen is still there. Macawaen is there, and have another

965
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 1: than Warner comes in there. You know, he was he

966
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 1: was at Minnesota and then he left. He did a

967
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: really good job as O line at Ohio State when

968
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 1: they won the national title. You know, that group had

969
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: really they were mismatched parts in the beginning there when

970
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 1: they played Virginia Attack and then by the end of

971
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 1: the they're really good. So he's a good online guy.

972
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 1: But ultimately, you know, it didn't work with Pep last year,

973
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 1: and we'll see if they can get it going. A

974
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 1: lot of cooks in the kitchen man, Yeah, because obviously

975
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 1: Jim's a quarterback guy. They're really good on defense with

976
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: Don Brown, he's a maniac. By the way. I knew

977
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: he was a great coach, but just watching I haven't

978
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 1: seen a ton of it. But what was it what

979
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: they call that the thing he's he's he's a good lunatic,

980
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 1: I mean, is the way I would describe it. Yeah,

981
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 1: we did one of their games, they played per Dow

982
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:39,880
Speaker 1: It's like in late September, and one of my buddies

983
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: who worked with him at Ums is like, yeah, I

984
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: think it's his. I think it's his fiftieth wedding anniversary.

985
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,319
Speaker 1: Were about to talk about then we realized, like he's

986
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 1: the picture. No, it's like his fiftieth anniversary of knowing

987
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,960
Speaker 1: his wife. Like they met when they were like seventh grade.

988
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,320
Speaker 1: It was like, he's not seventy, it's not that old chief,

989
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 1: but he's Yeah, he's He's a great asset for them.

990
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: I think they'll be really get on defense. You know,

991
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,720
Speaker 1: like everym as. You know, this is a loaded group

992
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 1: of d lineman and they have one of they have

993
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 1: probably two of them. You know, obviously Rashawn Gary has

994
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 1: a lot of the hype. And so we'll see. Because

995
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,960
Speaker 1: Notre Dame lost a you know, great old line coach,

996
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 1: they lost two great offensive lineman, we'll see how they reload.

997
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,440
Speaker 1: Uh we mentioned the defensive lineman. I kind of just

998
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 1: just peeking at some of these guys. So far, it

999
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: looks like, you know, last year we dubbed with the

1000
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 1: Year of the Quarterback with the draft because we had

1001
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:26,799
Speaker 1: so many guys. I think we still in what would

1002
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 1: have been up with five going in the first round

1003
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: last year. Um, this year, it looks like to me

1004
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,920
Speaker 1: on the outside. This year at the defensive lineman, Clemson

1005
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:36,920
Speaker 1: is loaded. I mean they have four guys who will

1006
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 1: probably be I would guess top fifty picks at least,

1007
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 1: and a couple of freshmen coming into yeah, exactly. And

1008
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 1: then you have you know, Nick Bosa. When I was

1009
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: down there in the in April, Greg Siano said he

1010
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 1: might be the best player I've ever coached, and I

1011
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 1: was thinking, you know, he had Gerald McCoy in Tampa

1012
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 1: um and he had some really good players since he's

1013
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,360
Speaker 1: been in Columbus, So obviously he's really good. Certainly at Oliver.

1014
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:04,759
Speaker 1: Just you watch him, he's ridiculous. Is Is he a

1015
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,720
Speaker 1: sub six footer? No, he's not a sub six footer,

1016
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:08,239
Speaker 1: but he's somewhere between my height and your height. What

1017
00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:09,800
Speaker 1: are you climbing? Six one? I'm six one and a

1018
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,359
Speaker 1: half six o one three officially, but we'll go six

1019
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 1: one and a half, you know. But great with his hands,

1020
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,319
Speaker 1: super explosive, and I don't know, I mean, I feel

1021
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,280
Speaker 1: like every short defensive tackle is going to It's almost

1022
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:24,440
Speaker 1: like the Drew Brees there. Donald. So I've got NFL

1023
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 1: dot Com Tuesday, I'll have my first my first look

1024
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:29,839
Speaker 1: report there on on BOTHA. He's the one that I've

1025
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: done already. He is just he's like a sawed off

1026
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 1: version of his brother. It's it's like it's darn near

1027
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,400
Speaker 1: identical when you watch Botha, and then when you watch

1028
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 1: the kid from Houston, I don't who else to compare

1029
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,359
Speaker 1: him to. He's like, look, the exact same body type

1030
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald. So those are the those are gonna be

1031
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 1: the natural comparisons for both those kids. Thing with Bosa.

1032
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 1: So I have a story that eventually I'm gonna do

1033
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 1: with this, you know, probably next month on Larry Johnson,

1034
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 1: their great deal line coach. And uh so I'm there

1035
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: for this story and a guy comes in the room

1036
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 1: and and he's basically doing this instructional stuff for me

1037
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: and showing me everything he's doing or whatever. There's a

1038
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: guy in there and I thought it was a local

1039
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 1: high school coach, pretty big guy or whatever. And then

1040
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 1: he's like very respectful and it turns out as John Bosa,

1041
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: and so we were like talking. He was like, none

1042
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 1: of this stuff we knew about when I was playing

1043
00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 1: back in the late eighties or so. You know, he's

1044
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,840
Speaker 1: the first pick out a yeah out a b C

1045
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,400
Speaker 1: and Um, the big thing that Urban had said is

1046
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:21,040
Speaker 1: Nickmos is so much further along than Joey in terms

1047
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 1: of not acknowledged. Yeah, and he gets it a lot earlier,

1048
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 1: and so he's not I don't think he's quite as long.

1049
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 1: But they said he might even be like a little

1050
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 1: more I guess, a little more better awareness and everything

1051
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 1: like that. So it's a good it's not. Look if

1052
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:39,359
Speaker 1: if he's if he's just as good as his brother.

1053
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 1: If it's not better than his brother, he's going to

1054
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:42,360
Speaker 1: be an all pro. I mean that his brother is

1055
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 1: a freak show. So probably he's three and out and

1056
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: that that D line is loaded to Who was this?

1057
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 1: I think he was a single digit because I was

1058
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: at the Cotton Bowl. They had a young kid defensive tackle,

1059
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: didn't play a ton, but when he went in and

1060
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,280
Speaker 1: was like whoa who his last name as a young

1061
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,839
Speaker 1: um god, he was a freshman this year this past year,

1062
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:03,879
Speaker 1: freaking you know, like Draymond Jones is the guy they love.

1063
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 1: He was kind of a basketball player who is not

1064
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 1: a huge recruit for them, and they think he is

1065
00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 1: he'll be an awesome player. Um, you know, just they

1066
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,000
Speaker 1: have so many guys in that D line and they'll

1067
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 1: probably be ten deep. Everyone's gonna talk about Clemson, but

1068
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,200
Speaker 1: that group is right there. Uh. One time I'm curious

1069
00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: about and I don't know how he's gonna be with

1070
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,799
Speaker 1: new new system is actually here in l A. And

1071
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 1: that's Jail and Phillips. You know, a freaky athletes edge

1072
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: rusher at three four now with with Jerry as an

1073
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 1: arrow coming back, you know, run chips defense. But he's

1074
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 1: definitely got wow talent athleticism. So I watched him in

1075
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 1: high school. There was one of their games, it was

1076
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: on local TV. And watched it and I was like,

1077
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:46,359
Speaker 1: Holy moly, who is this? And then turned out he's

1078
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,359
Speaker 1: a five star recruitings like okay, then all it all

1079
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,480
Speaker 1: comes together now. But he's he's about six five to

1080
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:52,960
Speaker 1: fifty long. He kind of not as not quite as

1081
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 1: broad as William mc ginness, but had kind of a

1082
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 1: similar framed at Willie, which is a rare, rare looking dude. Yeah,

1083
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:00,719
Speaker 1: I mean to me, there's that's the position now, and

1084
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:02,520
Speaker 1: there's like then there's other guys who are like super

1085
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 1: productive at like small There's a guy Louisiana Tech who

1086
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,240
Speaker 1: feel like he's been there forever I was like sixty

1087
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: career uh tackles for loss and like forty sacks. You know. Um,

1088
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:13,160
Speaker 1: so you have some of those guys who are in

1089
00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 1: the mid major guys. You knows the guy at n

1090
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 1: i U had like almost thirty tackles for lost last year.

1091
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,359
Speaker 1: It was like a converted running back. So you'll see

1092
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,279
Speaker 1: those guys who may not at all of them, may

1093
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,719
Speaker 1: not lead the country in TFLs because everyone knows he's

1094
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 1: the guy. You're gonna focus on him. Um, but yeah,

1095
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 1: I can't wait before I let you go. Give me,

1096
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,239
Speaker 1: give me, give me one quarterback you could see making

1097
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,239
Speaker 1: a major jump up this year in college football. I

1098
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:37,839
Speaker 1: mean we're not talking about him. He's not out here

1099
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 1: with these top guys. I mean somebody that's just going

1100
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,479
Speaker 1: around the spring and talking to folks you think could

1101
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 1: be on the come here. This is a little probably

1102
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 1: cliche to put it, but I just did a big

1103
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,959
Speaker 1: story on Justin Herbert from from Oregon. He's not here.

1104
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:54,000
Speaker 1: He is spent. His hand his hands are enormous. Yeah,

1105
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,320
Speaker 1: he's also he's six six to forty. So here's the

1106
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 1: crazy thing. So we're talking he's like squeaky clean four

1107
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:02,879
Speaker 1: point on g p A and biology and everything right

1108
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 1: from Eugene and uh. We were talking about their new strength. Coach.

1109
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've seen him. He was he

1110
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:12,359
Speaker 1: came Georgia coach fell and he was like he was like, yeah,

1111
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:13,800
Speaker 1: the first meeting, he was like, you actually kind of

1112
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: yelled at me about something. I was like, why do

1113
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,320
Speaker 1: you know? He's like, oh, he didn't give him the response.

1114
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:19,560
Speaker 1: He probably one or whatever. This is a soft spoken kid.

1115
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 1: I was like, well, was the last time he yelled

1116
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: at He goes, probably like tenth grade, you know, because

1117
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,799
Speaker 1: this is a four one student. Did everything right that?

1118
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:28,080
Speaker 1: I said, you guys are kind of I said, maybe

1119
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 1: someday you'll have that mustache. She goes, Man, I can't

1120
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:31,839
Speaker 1: grow a mustache. I said, when was the last time

1121
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 1: you shaved? He goes, the last time I had to

1122
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 1: shave was two months ago. So but I don't know

1123
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 1: if he's going to come out like a lot of

1124
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,800
Speaker 1: people will say in those mock drafts, because he's really accurate.

1125
00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 1: WILLI Tagger told me for this story that he goes,

1126
00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 1: I'll be surprised if he's not the first pick in

1127
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:48,160
Speaker 1: the draft. Be a tight end. Yeah, and the thing

1128
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 1: with him is Will he said, you know, just in

1129
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:53,040
Speaker 1: terms of leadership, those are the things that need to

1130
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:55,239
Speaker 1: get developed. They don't have a great group of receivers,

1131
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,400
Speaker 1: but I think he's the one people need to keep

1132
00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 1: an eye on. That's a good one. We met him

1133
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:01,360
Speaker 1: lst year at the Peck teld me today and he

1134
00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:03,160
Speaker 1: came over and said now and just shook his hand.

1135
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 1: I was like this, it's a big dude, man. I

1136
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:07,799
Speaker 1: watched him a little bit a couple of weeks ago,

1137
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 1: one of the first guys I watched to meet. Makes

1138
00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:12,680
Speaker 1: every thrill. He's a great athlete, just just in terms

1139
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:15,880
Speaker 1: of just processing working through. Marcus Royo has got his

1140
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:18,440
Speaker 1: work cut out for him because he had there yet

1141
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:20,879
Speaker 1: he's not there. And if you watch that Boise Steak game,

1142
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:24,399
Speaker 1: if you watch the Lake Vanderash party or whatever, they

1143
00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: were like three picks I think at least one pick

1144
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 1: six another one that was down on the red aia.

1145
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 1: So it was that was not a good They did

1146
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:31,919
Speaker 1: not have answer for that. And I think they know that.

1147
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,160
Speaker 1: And so let's see how he gets at that. I mean,

1148
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: to me, he's definitely one to watch. And and here

1149
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:37,800
Speaker 1: Will grew or I think he's gonna have a monster

1150
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:39,480
Speaker 1: year this year with what they got is keeping eye

1151
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 1: on him, no question, Will Grew We just spoke to him.

1152
00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 1: In fact, won't We want to run that right now

00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:46,799
Speaker 1: a quick give me a quick preview here for this

1178
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 1: for this football team next year. You guys got a

1179
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:50,799
Speaker 1: lot of talent coming back on this. It's kind of

1180
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 1: you guys are almost kind have a trendy pick here.

1181
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:54,920
Speaker 1: With the expectations being high next year, what do you

1182
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 1: expect from your football team? Well, I mean you always

1183
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 1: have high expectations. I think we played Division one college football,

1184
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 1: you you have high expectations, and I think that's just

1185
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:08,279
Speaker 1: the standard going into every season. We had high expectations

1186
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,279
Speaker 1: last year, you know, and we didn't meet them. So

1187
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 1: you know, we uh, I don't think there're any higher

1188
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 1: than they were last year. It's the same kind of

1189
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:16,040
Speaker 1: thing you want to go want to know every week,

1190
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:18,880
Speaker 1: so that's what we focus on. And you know, I

1191
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:20,279
Speaker 1: think we've got a good team. A lot of a

1192
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:23,480
Speaker 1: lot of uh, good players, some experience which we haven't

1193
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 1: had in the past. Uh, this is my first time

1194
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 1: I ever playing with the same coordinator for two years

1195
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:31,279
Speaker 1: in a row. So that's nice, kind of building up

1196
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:33,200
Speaker 1: what we did last year and everything. So yeah, I

1197
00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: think I'm looking forward to it. There's some there's some

1198
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:37,360
Speaker 1: buzz around it, but like I said, we're focused on

1199
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:38,960
Speaker 1: going and want to know what will they give you

1200
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 1: more responsibility this year at the last of scrimmage or

1201
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,279
Speaker 1: just in game planning or what was kind of the

1202
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:45,480
Speaker 1: message do you coming back this season of how your

1203
00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 1: role change. Um, it's just supposed to kind of upgrade. Uh,

1204
00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:51,480
Speaker 1: you know, I had a lot of freedom last year

1205
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: and I'll continue to you know, that's that's a big

1206
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:55,920
Speaker 1: part of what we do is is is I have

1207
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 1: a lot of freedom at the line of scrimmage, and um,

1208
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 1: we're we're not going to change a whole lot. We're

1209
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,200
Speaker 1: gonna make things better. So I've heard you're a heck

1210
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:04,800
Speaker 1: of a golfer. I've heard you got a couple of

1211
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 1: guys you golf with that aren't bad either. So who's

1212
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,400
Speaker 1: the best who's the best golfer in the program, not

1213
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 1: just talking about players in the entire program, putting me

1214
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 1: on the spot. Whoever I say, everybody else is gonna

1215
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 1: be not. Well, that's what we want to do here,

1216
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:19,920
Speaker 1: But an honest answer, just say you're the best, you're

1217
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: the best. Time I'm not. I'm I'm I'll tell you

1218
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 1: that I'm but I'm for sure not the best. I

1219
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,320
Speaker 1: enjoyed playing golf, but I'm not. I I got a

1220
00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: lot of work to go. I got a lot of

1221
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:30,920
Speaker 1: room to grow in that in that area. But there's

1222
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:33,600
Speaker 1: there's some good golfers. Man, Dan is pretty good. Uh

1223
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,479
Speaker 1: you are. Recruiting coordinator is pretty good. Alex is good.

1224
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 1: David Stills is pretty good golfer. Uh, Eli wellman who

1225
00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 1: has gone Now, I've played fullback and he drove the

1226
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:46,439
Speaker 1: ball about four hundred yards, so he's fun to play there.

1227
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 1: Not very good, but it's a good scouting report right there,

1228
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 1: speaking scouting reports, giving a scouting report on your receive, right.

1229
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:54,200
Speaker 1: I spent some time, uh talk to you a little

1230
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:55,839
Speaker 1: bit about before we started rolling here. I spent some

1231
00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:58,160
Speaker 1: time studying David Stills and what he can do. And

1232
00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 1: as a football player, give me your out of report.

1233
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,160
Speaker 1: I mean he's just a he's a great kid man.

1234
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 1: He he wants to be great. He has been playing

1235
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:08,120
Speaker 1: the position very long, but works harder than you know.

1236
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:11,440
Speaker 1: He's just he tries that work everybody. He's an overachiever.

1237
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 1: He's not the most gifted, and he hasn't been doing

1238
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,319
Speaker 1: this his whole life, so he kind of jumped into it. Uh.

1239
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:18,520
Speaker 1: And it's been just all in since thence since he

1240
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:22,160
Speaker 1: got here last spring, just begging me to throw to him.

1241
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:25,440
Speaker 1: How can I get better? It really takes coaching well, Um,

1242
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,239
Speaker 1: and just isn't that he has just a great mentality. Man,

1243
00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 1: He's competitive. I tell this story about David in the

1244
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:34,120
Speaker 1: Virginia Tech game. You know, there's a lot of unknown

1245
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,320
Speaker 1: a lot of new guys playing, and and he wanted

1246
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:38,400
Speaker 1: the ball from from the get go. Was just ready

1247
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:40,840
Speaker 1: to go. Uh. Was was just begging to get the

1248
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:44,080
Speaker 1: ball in his hands and and obviously he did. Um.

1249
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:45,879
Speaker 1: But he's just he's got a knack for the game.

1250
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,280
Speaker 1: And he's a great teammate and uh and a great player.

1251
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,080
Speaker 1: All our last question for me here we get to

1252
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:52,400
Speaker 1: the end of the season, Um, for it to be

1253
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:54,400
Speaker 1: a success, what does that what does that look like

1254
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:58,240
Speaker 1: for you individually and you guys as a team. Uh.

1255
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 1: Like I said, I try keep the mentality of being

1256
00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,360
Speaker 1: want to know with myself and with and with the

1257
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 1: entire team because I think that's important and that's it.

1258
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 1: And if you if you want to know every week,

1259
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:11,680
Speaker 1: then success that the success takes care of yourself. Um.

1260
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,399
Speaker 1: And that's kind of the name of the game for

1261
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 1: for me and for what we're trying to do it

1262
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 1: at West Virginia. So uh, you know, I'd like to

1263
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:19,880
Speaker 1: say that at the end of the season would be

1264
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 1: undefeated because we wouldn't want to know every week. So

1265
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 1: that's the goal. All right, we want, I tell you

1266
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:26,479
Speaker 1: what we're I look forward to watching him spinning around

1267
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 1: this fall. Man. Thanks for taking some time for us,

1268
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:30,840
Speaker 1: Thanks for having well you have a little Will Greer

1269
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 1: and Buck. I feel like that's what we do on

1270
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:33,839
Speaker 1: the podcast. We want to go you know, we don't

1271
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:36,600
Speaker 1: focus on the thocast. We're just trying to go one

1272
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:38,600

Speaker 1: on come on win to day when the day, focus

1274
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,760
Speaker 1: on when it went play at a time. And that's

1275
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,279
Speaker 1: what Will agree is ingrained. Like someone who's coached him,

1276
00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:48,760
Speaker 1: went very very well. Yeah, I didn't know Dana Holgerson

1277
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:50,839
Speaker 1: was Nick saving two point oh. In terms of keeping

1278
00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 1: the message tight here, keep it tight. Will off off

1279
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:57,120

1280
00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: a lot of energy, but he's not gonna give any

1281
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 1: built bullets and boardantterial. Well, let's put the headsets on.

1282
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,560
Speaker 1: He's been coached up a little bit. Yeah, he's definitely

1283
00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:05,359
Speaker 1: been coached up a little bit, but nothing wrong with that.

1284
00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,399
Speaker 1: I'd rather him kind of stay and total company lined

1285
00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 1: and to say something crazy. So it's okay. Well, speaking

1286
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 1: of Nick Saban here, I think we should roll one more.

1306
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 1: Savan didn't run out of gas. You actually didn't know

1307
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,919
Speaker 1: how to operate the boat. User failure. Yeah, something something wrong.

1308
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 1: But we went out there and had a good time

1309
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,640
Speaker 1: on the late with the leadership group. How was telling

1310
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 1: me to take you back to spring practice here? How

1311
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 1: did that go for you? I think the spring went well.

1312
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 1: UM got got well, got better than a lot of areas. UM.

1313
00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: Obviously new coaches in UM and and learning from those guys,

1314
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,440
Speaker 1: and you know, just taking the coaching and trying to

1315
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,760
Speaker 1: improve every day out there. You guys have had some

1316
00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:32,960
Speaker 1: some change over here with the coaching staff. Is this

1317
00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:35,600
Speaker 1: does the terminology stay though? Did you make the coach

1318
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:37,760
Speaker 1: adapt or you guys put putting a new terminology every

1319
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,160
Speaker 1: time you guys getting the coordinator. Um, there there are

1320
00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:43,040
Speaker 1: things that change here and there. UM. But like I said,

1321
00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,480
Speaker 1: the coaches that came in and they're doing a great

1322
00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: job of teaching us what we need to know, establishing

1323
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:51,440
Speaker 1: trying to establish our identity as a as an offense.

1324
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:54,160
Speaker 1: I was at your your first game, your first college

1325
00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 1: game there at in Arlington against USC when you you

1326
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,160
Speaker 1: came in there and kind of got that ship righted. Uh,

1327
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,280
Speaker 1: it got that team off and rolling. And you've done nothing.

1328
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:04,400
Speaker 1: But when ever since then when you look at going

1329
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:06,520
Speaker 1: forward in the future here, I know how much has

1330
00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:09,200

Speaker 1: of college, already having red shirt and played a year

1390

Speaker 1: had to had to go off with the hair. And

1392
01:01:57,840 --> 01:01:59,440
Speaker 1: this is not like this is not a buzz this

1393
01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:01,600
Speaker 1: is very much it's like a bick um. So I

1394
01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:03,560
Speaker 1: want ahead to put that picture out there with me.

1395
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:08,760
Speaker 1: Somebody said I looked like a deflated Heath Evans. Mayah, Oh,

1396
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:11,440
Speaker 1: I gotta give you this exchange here. Hold on. So

1397
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 1: if you've seen this picture I put it out on

1398
01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:16,800
Speaker 1: Instagram of me with a bald head my redshirt sophomore

1399
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:19,760
Speaker 1: season at APP State. I don't think it said, look,

1400
01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:22,440
Speaker 1: I acknowledge it's not a good look. I'm not trying

1401
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,160
Speaker 1: to say anything other than that's what it is. Mayok

1402
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 1: sent me a text, you're ready for this, um aside

1403
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:32,160
Speaker 1: from the obvious, might want to work the chest a

1404
01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:35,680
Speaker 1: bit to be able to read the school name. I

1405
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:38,520
Speaker 1: wrote back and said, I shouldn't even be alive due

1406
01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 1: to the amount of creating I took in college. I

1407
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:42,480
Speaker 1: must have got the bad stuff. And to be fair,

1408
01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:47,840
Speaker 1: there's a lot of letters in Appalachian. Uh. Anyway, see,

1409
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:49,240
Speaker 1: I took some grief for that. It took some grief

1410
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:50,919
Speaker 1: for that. I can't believe you never had. This doesn't

1411
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:55,680
Speaker 1: even really matters. So here's here's the deal. Here's what happened.

1412
01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:58,280
Speaker 1: When I went to North Carolina. North Carolina was coming

1413
01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 1: on coming off a one ten season. So at that point,

1414
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 1: the class of guys that I came in with, we

1415
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:05,800
Speaker 1: were really trying to hear a whole lot because if

1416
01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 1: you're one of tend it's not a whole lot that

1417
01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:09,360
Speaker 1: you can you can really say to us. And so

1418
01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 1: I class kinda kind of buck the trend of yeah, yeah,

1419
01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:20,240
Speaker 1: you're not good enough to really to really demand whatever

1420
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:28,760
Speaker 1: lindsay Rhodes says, you look so tough and victimized. It's beautiful.

1421
01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:34,760
Speaker 1: It's beautiful response that, Sully do. What do you read

1422
01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:38,919
Speaker 1: My response to lindsay, what did you say? Uh? Half right?

1423
01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:42,760
Speaker 1: I'll let you get your wish half. That's awesome. Yeah,

1424
01:03:42,760 --> 01:03:47,360
Speaker 1: probably the victimize that say yeah, there you go. Anyway,

1425
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:49,480
Speaker 1: so we had some fun with that fun college pick.
