1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: And now Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks.

2
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 1: What's up, everybody walking to Move the Sticks? Percented by

3
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: the fourd F series. DJ Bucky here on a Tuesday

4
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 1: where we have an unbelievable college championship game to recap.

5
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 1: But Bucky, Uh, I want to get our NFL business

6
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:22,599
Speaker 1: out of the way quick so we can jump into

7
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: this college It was an all timer. The game was

8
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: an all timer. It was out standing game. It's so

9
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: much talent on the field. We always talked about it

10
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 1: from a prospect standpoint. It was just amazing to see

11
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 1: so many young guys playing and contributing right away. Says

12
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: a lot about those two programs versus the rest of

13
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: the country and the other programs that are trying to

14
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: compete to be national champion. Just to give you a

15
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 1: little preview here, Sully, we're gonna get to get to

16
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 1: that game. Bucky has unique insight into these quarterbacks because

17
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 1: of his time working with the Elite eleven. So some

18
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: great stories coming up on two Otago by La as

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: well as on Jake Frump. So you want to stay

20
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: tuned for that. Um, Well, I've got five less that

21
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: I learned from Nick Saban that I wrote down. I

22
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: want to get into that a little bit later as well,

23
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: and we'll have some prospect breakdowns some of the guys

24
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: we've been watching and uh kick around some of these

25
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: draft names. But Bucky, let's let's get back. We did

26
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 1: the takeaway podcast on the playoff games, but we need

27
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: to handle some business with our our our guess offensive

28
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 1: Line of the Week presented by the Ford f series.

29
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: This is again our buddy Shaun O'Hara does this article

30
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 1: NFL dot com slash forward. You can check out his

31
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: built Ford Tough offensive Line of the Week. So our

32
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: one piece of NFL business we need to handle here.

33
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: Who do you want for offensive line of the week? Book?

34
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: It has to be the Tennessee Titans. The Tennessee Titans

35
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 1: were able to absolutely dominate the kan City Chiefs at

36
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: the point of attack. I'm looking at Derrick Henry stat

37
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: line twenty three rushes, a hundred and fifties six yards

38
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: a touchdown. But it's not even what they put on

39
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: paper in terms of stats. It's the way that they

40
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: were able to do it. They bullied the Kansas City

41
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: Chiefs at the point of attack. The way they were

42
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: able to run the ball when the Chiefs knew that

43
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: they were going to run it and they still were

44
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: not able to put up resistance. Says a lot about

45
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans and that talented front line. Yeah, very

46
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: physical bunch. They got after it in uh, in that game.

47
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: And they move on to Foxborough where we'll have a

48
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: preview for that game on the next podcast we have

49
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: coming up on Thursday. But back, I want to jump

50
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: full full into this Alabama Georgia game. I was supposed

51
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: to go to the game and feel a little bit

52
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: under the weather's ended up pulling out and uh and

53
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 1: staying at home. It sounds like it might have been

54
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: a good thing based on all the security nightmare getting

55
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: in and out of there. Sound like kind of a

56
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: message the president showing up. Yeah, h big deal. So anyways,

57
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: it was nice kind of stay home and and check

58
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: this game out. I'll give you the floor just wherever

59
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: you want to go your your takeaway kind of from

60
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: this game. There's so many takeaways. Go ahead. Oh, I

61
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: think at the end of the day, teams with the

62
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: most talent are always going to be in the mix.

63
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: I don't believe it's a coincidence that each year when

64
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 1: signing day rolls around, Alabama's at the top of the list,

65
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: and they've consistently been in the final game. When you

66
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: look at the way that they are able to not

67
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 1: only acquire talent, but develop the talent and showcase the talent,

68
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: they do it better than anyone else in the business.

69
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: And I do believe it's it's almost like a Big four,

70
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: Big five that's up there. It's Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson.

71
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: You have Clemson, you have Oklahoma, and then I think

72
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: you have to put Georgia in the mix. I think

73
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: those five teams are different than everyone else in college football.

74
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 1: And then two you're able to recruit at that level,

75
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: you have no shot of winning the title. Yeah. Just

76
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: the depth. It's the depth. And I I always say

77
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: this is an unscientific approach, but I I've watched the

78
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: kickoff units for these teams to see who has the

79
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: most depth. You I went to the Ohio State USC game.

80
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: You watch Ohio State and you see their backups running

81
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: down on kick coverage and they they're meeting the kick

82
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: returner at the eight yard line. These guys can't get

83
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: on the field for for the defense or the offense.

84
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: But that's the kind of the depth that they've they've

85
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: got there. You saw with the Alabama coverage units too. Man,

86
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: they were flying up, flying to the ball. They played

87
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: at a different level, they played a different speed. Um.

88
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: I know the sec was down, But of thing when

89
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: you look at Georgia and Alabama, and then you think

90
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: about in the playoffs, seeing Clemson, seeing Oklahoma, watching Ohio

91
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: State play in the Cotton Bowl, there's a distinct difference

92
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: between those top teams and the way that everyone else

93
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: is playing football in the country. I agree with you.

94
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: We'll get to the Alabama takeaways, which there are a bunch,

95
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: but I want to start first on the Georgia side.

96
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: Uh Mine. To me, I was a little bit shocked

97
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: they did not feed Sony Michelle more. This is a

98
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: challenge when you do have a couple backs, um that

99
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: you can roll through there. You've got Michelle, you've got Chubb,

100
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: you've got Swift. To me, this was a Sony Michelle

101
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: type of game. To get to the corners on Alabama,

102
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: you've gotta have a little bit more juice than Chub

103
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,559
Speaker 1: has and I think Sony Michelle is the one that

104
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 1: that was showing the ability to do that, had that

105
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: nice tight rope down the sideline, and you can also

106
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: fight through some tough yards on the inside. Fourteen carries

107
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: for ninety eight yards, didn't touch it much at the

108
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: end of the game, Chub eighteen for twenty five. I thought,

109
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: distribution wise, they should have given Sony Michelle fed him

110
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: a little bit more in this game. Yeah, it'd been

111
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: nice to seem to get more touchooes because he did

112
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 1: have a going on. He did breakaway, had some big runs. Um.

113
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: They were very, very creative in the way that they

114
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: were attacking the Alabama defense, particularly early in the game.

115
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: Saw some what they call a wild dog saw something there.

116
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: Wild dog saw some shifts or some motions, saw some

117
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: really really cute and sexy stuff that they were doing

118
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 1: in the run game. But at the end of the day,

119
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: they needed to grind it out. They didn't give it

120
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: to what I think who I think is probably the

121
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: best running back. From an overall standpoint, Sonna Michelle should

122
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: have toached the ball more. I think that's something that

123
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: when they looked back, they'll regret not feeding them a

124
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: little more. He Snny Michelle's to your point, he didn't

125
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,799
Speaker 1: touch the ball a lot down the stretch. His last

126
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: carry was eight minutes left in the fourth quarter, so

127
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: they get well and he had zero catches after seeing

128
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 1: what he could do in the passing game the previous

129
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 1: week against Oklahoma, so that was a little bit odd.

130
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: I will say that Jake from Bucky, when they put

131
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands early, they came out throwing

132
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: I think the first two drives with seven passes, no runs.

133
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: They put the ball in the freshman's hands and this

134
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: is one you kind of file away for the future.

135
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: Kids got incredible point. I saw it in the Oklahoma

136
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: game live. You saw it in this game watching on TV.

137
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: A lot of noise and and and busy atmosphere around him.

138
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 1: In the pocket he was calm, cool and collected. Kind

139
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 1: of a hard luck pick on the one that bounced

140
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: off the helmet of the d lineman. That uh that

141
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: was picked off. But man, I thought on the whole

142
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: Jake from Man he was he was impressive, very impressive.

143
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: I mean, we we've we've talked about it. You've had

144
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 1: an opportunity to be around the last couple of years,

145
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 1: Leader levin the opening, seeing these young guys come through

146
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: the pipeline, the next generation of quarterbacks are going to

147
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: be special. It's gonna be a ridiculous the amount of

148
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: talent that we see migrate up into the college ranks

149
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: and indivisitalies to the pro ranks. Jake From is a

150
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 1: legitimate dude, and if not for to a taking over

151
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: on his own right for Alabama, we will be talking

152
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: about Jake From because he does everything that NFL quarterbacks

153
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: are supposed to be able to do. The way he

154
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 1: pushes the ball down the field that Ayr touchdown passed unbelievable.

155
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: Dime dropped it over the outside shoulder to be able

156
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: to recognize as late moving coverage to attack the weakness

157
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: good quarterbacks. The quarterback played in this game from two

158
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: true freshmen. Unbelievable to see them kind of handle the

159
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: environment and play as well as they were able to

160
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: play with all the pressure that was on there. The

161
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: last thing on the Georgia side of things, the real

162
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: Kuan Smith ended up thirteen tackles, a sack, two and

163
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: a half tackles for loss as good as advertised. The

164
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: range sideline the sideline is outstanding. I had a buddy

165
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: in the league that compared him to Jonathan Vilma. Was

166
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: his comp I thought that was actually a pretty good one,

167
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: just the instincts and the quickness. Not not the biggest

168
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: guy in the world, but he's he's ready made for

169
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: the next level. He's gonna be outstanding. I'm sure he'll

170
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: have a decision for us here in the in the

171
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: near future. But let's flip it over to the Alabama side,

172
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: where so many different things to get to. Why don't

173
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: we start right there with the decision to make to

174
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: make the change at the quarterback position. I was, you know,

175
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure as you were. Everybody was kind of texting

176
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: friends and man, I wonder, does he have the courage?

177
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: Is he really gonna do this? You have the courage

178
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: to make the switch? And sure enough, Nick Saban showed

179
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: no fear, no fear, And it's wondering why why. He's

180
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: arguably the best coach that we've ever seen in the

181
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: college game and more so modern history, his ability to

182
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: just make the hard decision because his quarterback was struggling.

183
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurst was struggling. They had no um potency on offense.

184
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: When Hurst was there trying to drive back and pass.

185
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: He went to the bullpen and we hadn't seen him

186
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: really go to the bullpen. We had seen to a

187
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: play and mop up duty, but we hadn't seen him

188
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: play like significant minutes against real competition. To put him

189
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: in that spot, to have the trust that his true

190
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: freshman quarterback could go in and make plays, I mean,

191
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: I don't know where they comes from. You talk about

192
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: having onions, the ability to just be fearless and courageous.

193
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 1: Nick Saban has all of that, And I think the

194
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: thing that that goes about UM that you have to

195
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: talk about when you talk about Alabama, the constant competition

196
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: that they kind of have, UM always putting their guys

197
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: in a position where hey, I'm gonna trust you, I'm

198
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: gonna play. They played a bunch of freshman Naja Harris played.

199
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 1: He talked about the young receivers Jerry Judy played, DeVante

200
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: Smith have played. I mean so many young guys on

201
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: the field. Yeah, r is also a young guy that

202
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 1: they had on the field. So many guys that they

203
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: put on the field in key situations. Says a lot

204
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: about how they developed you guys, but more about the

205
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: trust that they have in the young guys when they

206
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: get him an opportunity. Look, Nick Saban and Bill Belichick

207
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: think differently than than every other coach that I've ever seen,

208
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: and they just they think differently. They're always a step ahead.

209
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: To me that the move at halftime was like they

210
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,439
Speaker 1: pulled the goalie. He said, you know what we're going

211
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: it ain't working. We're gonna pull the goalie. We're gonna

212
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: We're gonna go down swinging, and I'm not gonna be left.

213
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: He's never gonna leave a game one er, and what

214
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: if it's not gonna happen. He empties everything. He did

215
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: it two years ago when they had the onside kick

216
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 1: against Clemson. We couldn't stop him. We will kick know

217
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: that this let's just just take a motion out of it,

218
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: and and let's let's size up the risk here. We

219
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: have to take this risk, and so don't be afraid

220
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,719
Speaker 1: go for it. I wrote down we'll get to UH two,

221
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: a tag of la and and and the job he

222
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: did in just a second. But I wrote down five

223
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: things lessons from Saban just that I jotted down after

224
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: watching that game. First one, I wrote down best guy plays.

225
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: And that is lip service that every coach I'm sure

226
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: gives every recruit. I've heard it in On the NFL

227
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: side of things, you say rookies, hey, you know if

228
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: you're the best guy. No, it doesn't work that way.

229
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: A lot of times they fall back on seniority. They

230
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: make the excuse of, well, this guy knows our entire playbook,

231
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: so if he makes a mistake, it's on him. It's

232
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: not on me, and that needs drive me nuts. From

233
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: the personnel side of things, this guy is a better athlete.

234
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: Make it simple so he can understand it, so we

235
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: can get our best guys on the field. That's what

236
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: they do. The best guy plays for these dudes, absolutely,

237
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: and I think that's the only way you can operate

238
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: a program where you have to hear your bringing five

239
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: stars in. You're not only you're bringing talented guys that

240
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 1: are worthy of being on the field, but you compete.

241
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: You're creating a competitive environment where everyone knows that you

242
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: have to be accountable to your performance or the guy

243
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: behind you will get an opportunity to play. And so

244
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: if you want to build an elite team, a team

245
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: that can consistently compete for titles, you have to have

246
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: that culture in your program. Play the best guy, regardless

247
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: of how many stars, regardless of when they come in,

248
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 1: regardless of what their classification is the guy who earns

249
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: it on the field deserves to be playing. The next

250
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: thing I wrote down is know what you want from

251
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 1: from a talent acquisition standpoint, and go get it. They

252
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: have those types you talk about the prototypes or how

253
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 1: they look. You can go from position group to position group.

254
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: With this Alabama team, they all fit the part. They

255
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: all looked a part of of where they have. You

256
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: don't see the five ft ten you know, undersize defensive end.

257
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,319
Speaker 1: You don't see the five eight corner like they used

258
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: to even back in the day, you'd have an Arenas

259
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: would kind of play in there. I can't remember the

260
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: last time I've seen a little a little corner for Alabama.

261
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: They all kind of fit the spart a little wide receiver.

262
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: I mean you, I mean you have a little undersized,

263
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: but they love that big They all type of player.

264
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 1: They all look exactly the same and uh look, it's

265
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: it's fascinating to me when you can watch this team

266
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: on defense and have a defensive tackle that's their defensive lineman.

267
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: And Roquan Davis who's six seven whatever is two pounds,

268
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: when nobody even talks about him, he blends into the scenery.

269
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: They got so many. They have so many dudes. But

270
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: I think you hit the nail on the head. I

271
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: know exactly what you want, and we talk about this

272
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 1: in the scouting business when you're trying to marry up

273
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: the front office of the personnel side with the coaches side.

274
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: Give me a clear description of exactly what you want.

275
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 1: What is a guy that looks like our kind of guys?

276
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: Be able to articulate it, be able to show me

277
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: on tape. So now when I go on the road,

278
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: I can go find those guys. I think Nick Saban

279
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: has done a great job of sharing division with his recruiters,

280
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 1: letting them know these are the kind of guys that

281
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: we wanted to program, These are the traits and the

282
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: characteristics that they must have. He is a guy that

283
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: when I spoke to him years ago, I was there

284
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: for Eddie Lacey's workout, and he talked about there's a

285
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: reason why they're different classifications and boxing. You don't put

286
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: middle weights in with heavyweights. Were heavyweight champions. We want

287
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: to be bigger, faster, stronger than I opponent because we

288
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 1: know we'll wear them down. I think when you look

289
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: at their team, they're built to be heavyweights. Also, you

290
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: look at them defensively, there's a mental aluity that they

291
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: play within, an effort that they play with. I can't

292
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 1: mean I'm watching all these different guys getting ready for

293
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: the draft, and I'll see him everybody I want to

294
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: watch against Alabama if they've played him, you don't see

295
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 1: the loaf place from them that you see from every

296
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: other team. You don't see it because they know that

297
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: they don't if they aren't given effort. There's a guy

298
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: right behind them ready to go in and that's the

299
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: best way to get him to do it. I think

300
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: the thing that stands out when you see Alabama play,

301
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: and I'm I'm gonna say Georgia too, because Georgia has

302
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: some of that. They played with the kind of urgency

303
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 1: on Monday night that I saw in the playoff games

304
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: on Saturday and Sunday. They played like he was a winner,

305
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 1: go home game. That urgency that you want, that that

306
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: do or die mentality. He certainly has fostered that in

307
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: that locker room. The last three things. So the best

308
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: guy plays, you know what you want, go get it.

309
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: We've touched on this. No fear. He doesn't coach from

310
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: fear at all. It's always aggressive. We took we used

311
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: the phrase all gas, no break um. Then this one

312
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: I wrote down. The thing that I love about Saban

313
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: is that he's disciplined and flexible. A lot of times

314
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: people you'll see a disciplined person and you'll associate that

315
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: with being stubborn. He's not stubborn. The game, the college

316
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: football game changed over the last ten years with the

317
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: spread and the and the up tempo, and it's no

318
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: longer just sitting in the eye and being a pro

319
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 1: style guy and selling that you're a pro style coach.

320
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: He adapted so they can be you can be disciplined

321
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: as well as be able to adjust the time. So

322
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: I think he's absolutely done. That continues to evolve, evolves

323
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: with the game. People started using tempo, started going fast,

324
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: playing quicker, uh, trying to put the defense in the

325
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 1: quandary by not allowing the defense coordinator to be a part.

326
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: He added it to the mix. He has found a

327
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: way to stay one step ahead of the curve. I

328
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 1: give him credit because he's had a lot of success,

329
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: and a lot of times when you're very successful, you're

330
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: not really uh looking to change the way that you've

331
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: done it. He has always been willing to change and

332
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: because they had been very, very successful regardless of how

333
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 1: the game shifts. The last one I wrote down, we

334
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: touched on this when we're off the year, find a

335
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: weak spot of the opponent and attack it with a vengeance.

336
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 1: We used the phrase, what's our phrase book, we gotta

337
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: get wall to firewall though where as well, though that's

338
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: the weak spot on the team, and they found it.

339
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: They found it in a corner for Georgia fourteen, and

340
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: they attacked him mercilessly in this game. And that's what

341
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 1: they do. I mean, I think that's something that we've

342
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: seen Bill Belichick to up in New England. Nick Saban

343
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: obviously is from the same school to thought. Once they

344
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: find a weakness in what you're doing, be a schematically,

345
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: be a personnel, they go after it. And I say,

346
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: it's a really an old old school mentality. They were

347
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: going to run number fourteen off the field, and if

348
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: there Georgia wasn't going to replace him, they're gonna continue

349
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 1: to attack him. They did it and it paid off

350
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: in a huge way, especially down in that final play.

351
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: All right, give me some give me some background here,

352
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: uh tagify lo It comes in and just he plays

353
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: way beyond his years, shows the poise. The four plays

354
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: that that I was thinking of that jumped out to me.

355
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: The first thing was a third and seven, he spends

356
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 1: out the back door, ends up running for a first down.

357
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: You've got the fourth and four. Um, or you buy

358
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: some time when the initial play breaks down and and

359
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 1: throws a touchdown on that one. Um, you've got the gosh,

360
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: what was the other one? Well, the taking the sack

361
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: was a pretty big play, right, a big mistake. And

362
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: then to come right back after that on second and

363
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: be able to hit the walk off game winner. I

364
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: think those kind of four plays showed you the poise

365
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: of this guy and the ability to bounce back. I

366
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 1: mean it was it was impressive, very impressive, and I

367
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 1: think anyone who really wants to chronicle his journey they

368
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: should go back a year ago. Two years ago, we

369
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: did a thing at Elite eleven where we we built

370
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: out a little documentary called the in Factory, and the

371
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: in fact was that entire Class two was the m

372
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: v P of the Elite eleven finals. He played on

373
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: my seven on seven team, so I was really fortunate

374
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: to be around him, and what I can say is

375
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: we though that term around a lot people having the

376
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: it factor. Uh, the in fact is something that you

377
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 1: can't really describe, but you can just kind of feel it. Insensitive.

378
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: He has that. He is a natural leader. He has

379
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 1: the ability in a room of alpha's, he is the

380
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: biggest alpha, but he does it in a way that

381
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: is unique. Sauce Buck spoken, He's quiet, um, he's devout,

382
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: he's religious, He's very very passionate about his faith. But

383
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: he has a way of being in every man to

384
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: bring everybody in and to get them. And I think

385
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: his humility and his confidence, which kind of sometimes seems

386
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: like something that wouldn't go yeah, but he has that.

387
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,679
Speaker 1: And I think what you saw in a big moment

388
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: to go into the second half of a national championship game,

389
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 1: when you watched him the entire time, it never looked

390
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: like the moment was too big. Even after the game

391
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: and talking about it, he was very reserved, like he

392
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: just kind of had it and was very measured. I

393
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 1: hate to do comparison because I know people hate it,

394
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 1: but if you can just think about the way that

395
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson has been able to be successful, their demeanors,

396
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: their games are very very similar. Very positive, always thinking

397
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: the next thing. I think they're builders. They build people

398
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:57,719
Speaker 1: up rather than tear people down, and I think that

399
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 1: is why they're so beloved. And then the very very

400
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 1: talent one of the one of the things that impressed me.

401
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 1: And obviously haven't interacted with him much like you have Bucky,

402
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: but uh, just watching it on TV and watching his

403
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: interactions with Sabing, he was getting dogs shoot a couple

404
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 1: of times, and he just patted him on the back,

405
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: said hey, I got this kind of thing, and and

406
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: and and he was very calm, cool and collected when

407
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 1: when he was under fire. So I mean, I think

408
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,479
Speaker 1: I think as a freshman in that spot, just just

409
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: watching it on TV, you could tell that that that

410
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 1: guy is a very cool demeanor guy. I thought both,

411
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: to be fair to Jake from I thought he was

412
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 1: the same way. I thought both guys didn't really show

413
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 1: much of a pulse, which is about as high compliment

414
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: as you can give a quarterback on that stage. Absolutely,

415
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 1: I think both of those guys were even killed. They

416
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: handled the situations very well. They're everything that you really

417
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 1: want to see in terms of being like franchise quarterbacks

418
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 1: at that level. It's gonna be fascinating to watch these

419
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 1: guys and the next collection of quarterbacks continue to grow.

420
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: But we've seen we saw two stars go at it.

421
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: It's unfortunately we won't see him on the same field

422
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 1: in in a schedule game unless we see him in

423
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 1: the SEC championship the next few years. Where do you

424
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: put him? Uh when when you're talking about all the

425
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that have won a national title for Saban, where

426
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 1: you're gonna you can kind of reject a little bit here.

427
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,400
Speaker 1: He's played a half. He's played a half where other

428
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: guys played full years. But I mean, look, you're just

429
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: talking about talent wise based and Bucky's seen a lot

430
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: more of him in high school obviously than I have.

431
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 1: But based off one half, when I go through the

432
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: guys that have won championships for him, he's got more

433
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 1: talent than Greg Michael. Roy's got more talent than uh

434
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: oh yeah Coker and Simms was there. I mean, these

435
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: quarterbacks have not been great. Mccaren was probably the best

436
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: of the bunch. Um, this kid is a much better

437
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 1: athlete than mccare, explosive, more talented. The thing is, we've

438
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: only seen a half, and you know, there's some things

439
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: that he was able to get away with like the

440
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: touchdown where he just kind of threw it up his

441
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 1: fourth down, So it was a desperation situation. It looked

442
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: like he was trying to think Harris coming across the

443
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: back cross but you know, Kevin Realley went and got it,

444
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: made a play. But then as much as I say that,

445
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 1: he stepped up in the pocket and kind of made

446
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: a late reaction throw to Jerry Judy on a crossing route,

447
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: there was a dart uh the dart that he threw,

448
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 1: the diamond he threw for the touchdown, the game winner

449
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: after a bad sack. I think I'm more impressed with

450
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: that because look, talk the safety too didn't when you

451
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: have a bad play like that to be able to

452
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:17,399
Speaker 1: bounce back, you just don't see young guys have that.

453
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 1: But I think from did the same thing, had a

454
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: couple of such came back and delivered the time. Um,

455
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: can we play Can we play two man? There? Can

456
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: we play two man? Here's here's the thing, why about

457
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 1: two man? And why you don't. He's an athletic quarterback.

458
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 1: If you play two man and he takes off running,

459
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 1: he could damage it. Really, it really comes down to

460
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: if the corner puts his hands on him, and if

461
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: the safety plays deeper and just pays attention to his

462
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: deal because he ate the cheese. They brought number three

463
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,479
Speaker 1: coming across. Put it just just a little, just just

464
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,679
Speaker 1: just enough, and without the reroute, it just made it

465
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: tough for him to get over. I'm sitting there going

466
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 1: I wish they were two men. You can if you

467
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: want to keep a linebacker in the middle of the field,

468
00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: do it, let the bat go. If you want to

469
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 1: let the bat go, you can rally and tackle. They

470
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 1: could have played soft. They could have played a little

471
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: umbrella cover four something something sink, just something you can't

472
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 1: get beat over the top in that situation. Not not

473
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: not not second rally, look, rally to the ball, and

474
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 1: tackle and forced that kicker to come back out there again.

475
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 1: You know he wanted no part of that thing. So

476
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: did you see my tweet after that? By the way,

477
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: Oh no, I said, Look, the last minute, the last

478
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 1: second practice kick never a good sign. But like, all right,

479
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 1: we're ready to go, hold one, say let me get

480
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: one more, one more practice kick. This never inspires confidence

481
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: when you see that. I didn't see that. I didn't

482
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: see I didn't see that part, but I will say

483
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: the guy for Georgia was a dude with the Charlie Sheen. Yeah,

484
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: Rodrigo Blakinship not that through, but I know, man, that

485
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: is one so much. So what I did do? I mean,

486
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: I guess there's another network. We can't pump it up.

487
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: But I did tape the Mega Cash. Oh how was that?

488
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I haven't watched it off, but you want to.

489
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 1: I can't wait to Coach Coach cut Coach cut called it.

490
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 1: I went back and watched just that little segment and

491
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: cut Cliff said, oh, this this one's decide it. Like

492
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: as soon as he's dropping back, this is it right here? Yeah,

493
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 1: he called it and evidently cut Cliff was was the

494
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: star of the show. Uh. Gundhy was really good too

495
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: as well. So that's I think that's definitely worth going

496
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: back and watch it. I want to see what they

497
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: say and their their reaction because when I saw it,

498
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: because I saw I was like, oh no, no, I

499
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: saw the throw, and I would be honest, he kind

500
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 1: of pulled it in a little bit death row was

501
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: I mean, it was an unbelievable strike, like even if

502
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: the safety is in position, gosh, I wonder if you

503
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: make that play. But that was an unbelievable throw, and

504
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 1: to put it off in that situation, I mean, that

505
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: is just dropping them. Gundy's face too, he was like

506
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 1: looking at the play and did not react, just stone

507
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 1: cold he was. He must have been thinking like, why

508
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: can't I get a freshman quarterback like that? Are you

509
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,199
Speaker 1: kidding me? Unbelievable. He didn't play, He didn't play like

510
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 1: the funny things. He made enough plays, but Jalen Hursts

511
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,959
Speaker 1: has been so bad that they just needed something. They

512
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 1: needed some juice. Here's what I think, because we always

513
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 1: talked about it being trendy and the five things that

514
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 1: you outline. So now if you're some of these programs,

515
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: you'r SC you're Michigan, you're some of these other teams,

516
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 1: and we're looking at what Alabama has been able to do.

517
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: We're looking at what Georgia with doing with freshman. You

518
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 1: gotta play him. The excuses are off. You gotta you

519
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: gotta play. You gotta play him like no matter what,

520
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 1: Like when you bring a dude in, they have to

521
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 1: get on the field. Like the days of oh we're

522
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 1: gonna shorter and nope, yeah, now it's now it's like,

523
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 1: now we're gonna we're gonna ease you in, We're gonna

524
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 1: eat you in. I men, look, I think it's I

525
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: think it's so healthy. I mean some people think, ah,

526
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,239
Speaker 1: they're jumping the line and not earning. No, no, no,

527
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 1: I think it's healthy. You do not assume anything. I

528
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 1: don't care if you started here for two years, you're

529
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: returning starter, You better freaking bust your button the weight where.

530
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: You better get bigger, you better get faster, you better

531
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: get stronger because somebody else is coming. And guess what,

532
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: as soon as they show up on campus, best man wins.

533
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 1: Best man wins, and you better figure it out. And

534
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 1: I just believe that we're gonna see more people kind

535
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 1: of be a little more proactive and getting the young

536
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: guys on the field. And I think today's kids are

537
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: better served to play on the field. You think about

538
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: all the seven or seven, all the football that has played,

539
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 1: all the skill guys they've been doing a year round

540
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 1: since day we're in middle school. They're more ready to

541
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 1: get them to field now than ever. So if you

542
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: go back to the elite eleven, is this I mean,

543
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: you guys had a bunch of guys that have gone

544
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,439
Speaker 1: through there obviously, but in the new era of the

545
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 1: Lead eleven since Trent's kind of gotten involved there with

546
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: Bob Johnson's baby and he kind of wearing it for

547
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: a long time. But right now in this new era,

548
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: is there a chance that the two ends up kind

549
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: of being the poster boy for being able to train

550
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: these guys up and get them ready to step on

551
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 1: campus right away. And I mean, I think right now

552
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: he would have an opportunity to be that guy that

553
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: can be the face. But there's so many guys that

554
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,959
Speaker 1: have come out. I mean, you up there pretty dang

555
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 1: justin Fields, Trevor Lawrence, some of the guys that were

556
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 1: coming through. I think, what is going to do. I

557
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: think it's going to legitimize some of the things that

558
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 1: we've talked about for a long time in terms of

559
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: seven or seven offseason work and playing. I think for

560
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: the skill guys all ball matters, that off season is

561
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: just as important as the season. I think you can

562
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: see some things and do some things that will help

563
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: uh advance your game, develop your game. And I think

564
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 1: if you're not embracing the twelve month a year calendar

565
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: that football has evolved into you're going to get left

566
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: behind now. It's uh, pretty fascinating. Man. It was a

567
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 1: fun It was a fun game to watch. There's a man,

568
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: there's a bunch of college kids I want to get into.

569
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: We probably say that for another day, Buck, but I

570
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: do want to just give you a couple of names

571
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 1: of guys I've watched recently. They're pretty darn fun as

572
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: Virginia Tech linebacker Tremayne Edmonds. Oh yeah, Remami and Jalen

573
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: Smith a little bit. I put a big grade on him.

574
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: That's a big grade, A big big grade. Um. I mean,

575
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: he stands up, he plays on the edge. He also

576
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 1: he plays primarily off the ball. Uh, he can run

577
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 1: all day long. Outstanding blitzer, excellent range. You'll see him

578
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: kind of wrap and fill around blocks inside. He's pulls

579
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: a trigger and goes. He can cover tight ends. You

580
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: see him change the direction against tight ends and backs.

581
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: He's got six five two or fifty pounds with the

582
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: list and I we'll see so I'm guessing what six

583
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:28,479
Speaker 1: four fifty. But he's excellent and coverage. He's he can

584
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: rush off the edge if you want him to. He's

585
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: a big time athlete. He's uh, he's one of my

586
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 1: favorite players I've watched so far. Well, I had a

587
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: peek at him, had a chance to watch him at

588
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: the ball game, so Oklahoma State take on Virginia Tech.

589
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: So I'm running around a little bit and watched him

590
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 1: on tape against Miami, and the thing that stands out

591
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 1: is everything that you say versa the athlete, long range, e, tough, athletic, explosive.

592
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 1: You talked about being able to find these athletes. These

593
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 1: I can't even call him a hybrid, but these avatars,

594
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: these guys that just can do so many different freak

595
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: you things. He is one of those. We talked about

596
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 1: the talent in this draft, and I know a lot

597
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 1: of the conversation that will have in the next few

598
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 1: months will send around the quarterbacks. There's some dudes, man,

599
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: there's some guys in there. And I think the challenge

600
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: for some guys are your position players better players, more

601
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,360
Speaker 1: talented players than some of the quarterbacks that we will

602
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: have at the top of the board. Some of these

603
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: teams are gonna have to make these decisions whether the

604
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: boy pass a guy that we know as a dude

605
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 1: as a position player, to take a chance on the quarterback.

606
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 1: Harrison Phillips from Stanford is Kyle Williams two point Oh.

607
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I've never seen anybody looks more like somebody

608
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 1: physically looks like him. He plays like him. Dominant guy,

609
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 1: not a great pass rusher, but he's uh Kyle kind

610
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: of had that, had quick hands. This kid's got that

611
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 1: and then he'll have some sack production Kyle end up being.

612
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 1: But he's a wrestler. You know. We talked to him.

613
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,479
Speaker 1: When we talked to him at Packed with the Media day,

614
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: he talked about being a wrestler, heavyweight champion, being able

615
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 1: to put people on the back, the toughness to leverage. Um. Look,

616
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: coaches I've worked for always love guys that were wrestlers,

617
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 1: particularly on the d line, because they understood how to

618
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: play with leverage, body control. He's gonna have a chance.

619
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:10,679
Speaker 1: That was a funny dude. Yeah, he's a nice guy. Uh,

620
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: Maybell revisit that later on the spring. Arden Key is

621
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: tough to do, man. He's a heart evaluation man, you know.

622
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: I know there's been a lot of love in the

623
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 1: streets from a lot of people have talked about him

624
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: as a top ten, top twenty prospect, but it's just

625
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 1: hard for me to justify on tape that he merits

626
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 1: or warrants that kind of great talented athlete. But I'm

627
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: a little spooked, and I think I'm spooked and I

628
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: shouldn't hold this against him per se. But I've seen

629
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: a lot of those guys that have come out of

630
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: l s U looking like that tall slender show some flashes,

631
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,719
Speaker 1: but they're not strong at the point of attack. Name

632
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: the barkiebis Mingo kind of haunts me, and I don't

633
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: want to put that on him, but that's kind of

634
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 1: what I see because when I've seen him go against

635
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: real dudes, when you watch him turn on the tape

636
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: against Alabama, I feel like there's some back down in

637
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: him that if he goes against a butt kicker on

638
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: the other side, he shut it down a little bit.

639
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: I watched hard, I watched that one. I watched Auburn

640
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 1: in Alabama, and uh, my thing is he just gets

641
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: he gets blocked by inferior players too much like tight ends.

642
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: Like every d line coach I've ever been around, we

643
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 1: don't get blocked by tighter We don't even look at

644
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: them like, wh who's that? Who's that in front of me?

645
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: Should knock him? Around, but you know, you'll see the

646
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 1: flashes that he'll swipe and dip and rip, and he

647
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: had a nice, nice sack against Alabama doing that, see

648
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: some inside counters. But he's not a great finisher. He's

649
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: got some ankle stiffness and just doesn't play hard all

650
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: the time. So the bigger thing is it's hard to

651
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: fully endure someone that doesn't play hard. That effort. That

652
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: effort is supposed to be something that we shouldn't even

653
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: have to talk about when we when we're doing the evaluation,

654
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have to talk about a guy playing hard

655
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: not playing hard. That should be standing, but when it

656
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: stands out on tape, it just makes me wanted, Like, man,

657
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: what are you about? If you're gonna be a dominant player,

658
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 1: you should be able to play hard right away. He's

659
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: a tough one. The uh, Orlando Brown is that we

660
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: can get in all these guys later. I can probably

661
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 1: stop on this one. Orlando Brown. You know, man, I

662
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: thought was around his dad's zeus with with the Ravens.

663
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: Orlando's listed at six five. His dad was bigger. Um,

664
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: but he is, Uh, he's he's he's interesting to do,

665
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: is what I'll say. Because it doesn't look pretty. He

666
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: does not have a clean set, he does not bend

667
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,719
Speaker 1: his knees, but he's so freaking big. At the end

668
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: of the game, he's got a clean sheet. He'll get

669
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 1: beat and just kind of reach his arms out and

670
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 1: just kind of push a guy down to the ground.

671
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he's not squaring him up. He's not not

672
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: a great punch there, but he just kind of uses

673
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: his length and at the end of the day, you're like, Okay,

674
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 1: well he can lean on you in the run game

675
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: and create some movement, and then the past game he survives.

676
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,959
Speaker 1: It's not pretty, but he's just too dang big, too big,

677
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: too physical. He has all the traits we talked about

678
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: looking for trace of the position he has him and

679
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: there's a place for that in our league. Obviously, also

680
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: starting right tackle. The offensive line coach that is waiting

681
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: to get their hands on a big guy that has

682
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: those he's gonna go He's gonna go high. And I think,

683
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 1: you know, it's one of those things. Can you develop them?

684
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: And that is going to be the trick for all

685
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: a lot of these guys that we talked about, how

686
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: quickly can we develop him to get them on the

687
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: field where they can be a very very productive starter,

688
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: not just oh in a year. So they need to

689
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: be able to play right away because what we're talking

690
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: about in college can accelerate in the pros. Your rookies

691
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: need to be able to get on the field. You

692
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 1: gotta figure it out question. All Right. We got plenty

693
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: more prospects to get into in the spring here, But
