WEBVTT - 02/03/21 DPS Best Of 0:00:00.760 --> 0:00:03.600 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.680 --> 0:00:07.240 Sports Radio George Kittle the forty nine ers tight End 0:00:07.680 --> 0:00:11.479 on the program. And but does it seem like it 0:00:11.520 --> 0:00:13.320 was a year ago you were in the Super Bowl. 0:00:14.080 --> 0:00:17.479 I think it was about a year ago. Yeah, what 0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:19.759 were you doing a year ago on this day, like 0:00:19.920 --> 0:00:22.880 Wednesday of Super Bowl a week? Do you remember? I 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:24.440 was probably talking to you because we had a new 0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:29.520 media every single day. Is that bothersome or how bothersome 0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:33.400 in retrospective? Well, like you know, in a normal game week, 0:00:33.440 --> 0:00:35.199 you only have to like talk to you know, your 0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:38.120 local media like once a week, or they're in the 0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:40.000 locker room two days a week, three days a week. 0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:41.680 We want to talk to them every single day. But 0:00:41.720 --> 0:00:44.560 like going on a podium like four days a week. 0:00:45.120 --> 0:00:46.680 And I mean, you can only get asked so many 0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:50.199 questions during super Bowl week? Right, Yeah? What was the 0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:54.120 strangest question you got? I got asked to swear in 0:00:54.200 --> 0:00:56.920 German probably the same guy like four times, and you 0:00:57.000 --> 0:00:58.880 kept like giving me a piece of paper with swear 0:00:58.920 --> 0:01:00.520 words on it in German, and I was like, I 0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:01.880 don't know what you want going to do with this 0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:06.800 I got. I'm just trying to be nice and polite here, man, 0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:09.000 Can you stop asking me to square on TV? Yeah? 0:01:09.040 --> 0:01:11.600 But see that's where your personality comes back to haunt you, 0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:14.760 because everybody thinks, oh, George Kittle, he'll have fun, he'll 0:01:14.800 --> 0:01:19.360 say something silly. So I potentially would, but not in German. 0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:20.960 I don't. I don't know how to speak that language. 0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:25.240 What do you remember most about the game against the Chiefs? Um? 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:29.319 I mean, I remember all of it. Is there one 0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:33.920 thing that just stands out that you go damn oh? 0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:37.080 I mean after they score to get it like within 0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:39.200 three points, we had a three and out the next drive, 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:42.200 which them can't really do that when their momentum shifting. 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:44.400 That was kind of the that was kind of the 0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:48.280 downhill after that. I saw a special where Peyton Manning 0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:51.600 is breaking down Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady. And if 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:54.400 you look at the Kansas City Chiefs offense, there's so 0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:57.880 many things going on in that offense. Now you're on 0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:00.920 the sidelines watching it. But how different is that from 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:02.840 any other team in the NFL with what they do 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.960 on offense? I mean I think it's both of what 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:07.760 they do, but also who they have. I mean, you 0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:10.600 got weapons all over the field, and they have a 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:13.520 great office coordinator that's you know, getting them in the 0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:16.120 rights positions. And then you got a great quarterback, you know, 0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:18.880 leading the way. So it's their weapons and then also 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:22.000 their scheme. They's Scott guys moving around, Guys are always open. 0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:23.440 And then at the end of the day, they have 0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:25.720 guys that just make the tough play and that's what 0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:28.240 good football is. When did you realize that you were 0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:32.800 going to lose the Super Bowl? When the clock hit zero? 0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:37.040 That was it? I mean, when we let's see, like 0:02:37.200 --> 0:02:39.079 we had an interception at the very end of the game, 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:42.239 so we're down two scores, like thirty seconds left. Yeah, 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:44.920 I mean, that's not a very fun feeling. This is 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:48.920 National Signing Day. You take us back to what National 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:53.120 Signing Day was for George Kittle going to Iowa. Yeah. 0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:54.840 I actually I didn't know I was going to Iowa yet. 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.480 I was probably gonna gray shirt there or my only 0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:01.120 other offers were we were State and Air Force and Navy, 0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:03.400 and so I wasn't there entirely sure what I was doing. 0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:07.079 And then Kirk Ferns called me at like eleven or 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:10.200 you know, eleven AM or twelve, and he's like Hey, 0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:11.919 we have an extra scholarship that has opened up. Do 0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:13.480 you want to come play at IVE? And I was like, 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:17.560 damn straight, I do. So you couldn't even do three 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:21.519 hats in the gymnasium and say I'm going to didn't you? 0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:23.400 You couldn't put two hats out there. You didn't even 0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:27.840 have enough offers for three heads. I had three. We 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:30.760 were state man. That's a Damian Lillard went there. So 0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:35.920 yeah that was for basketball, not at all. But you know, 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:38.200 you look back on that, weren't you destined to go 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:40.960 to Iowa? Yeah? I mean my dad played there, He 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:44.040 coached there. Kirk Ferens was my dad's officive line coach, 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:45.880 So yeah, I mean we had a couple of connections there. 0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:48.160 Uh and just kind of played out the way they 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:50.440 I think they had three guys that declared to go 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.080 to other places on signing day and so I got 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.520 that last and final scholarship. But when did it click 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:58.280 where you go? You know what, I'm pretty good? I 0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:03.120 can I can play in the NFL. Um I don't know. 0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:06.880 When I was like three years old, I mean that's 0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:08.960 what I know, That's what I always wanted to do. 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:11.120 And um, you know I've always done well at football. 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:14.080 I've always been able to make plays. But um, I 0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:16.440 early thing going into my what was that going into 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:19.719 my junior year? I mean, mentally, it just everything clicked 0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:21.000 for him, and I realized that, you know, it's not 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.240 high school. There's not like ten plays that you're running. 0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.320 There's just a lot more to it than just showing 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.560 up and playing football, and kind of clicked for me there, 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.400 and then I had a really good spring ball transition 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:33.400 to a good uh you know, a fall camp, and 0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:35.520 then good season just kind of carried on from there. 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:38.800 Do you think you're always gonna have that comparison with 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:42.480 Kelsey since I think you're both the same, Ay, I 0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:45.159 mean it's not a good thing that, Hey, you know, 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:47.919 you're looking at Kelsey's numbers, Kelsey looking at your numbers, 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:51.080 or we're looking at both numbers here. I mean, I 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:52.960 just show up when I played football, and our numbers 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.840 seem to be sometimes consistent with each other. I mean, 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.479 he's having a hell of a year, breaking records and 0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:00.880 stuff like that and averageing like a hundred and fifty game. 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:04.640 It feels like it's pretty awesome. Uh, But uh, I mean, 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:06.560 like I said, I just show up and play football, 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.960 and people like to compare us. It is what it is. Yeah, 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:11.800 but I think that you you block block like Gronk. 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:16.200 Can you catch like Kelsey? I mean that's I just 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:18.960 that's great. I mean, try to play the ten position 0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:21.000 the way it's supposed to be played. But even with 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:22.960 you're supposed to say thank you for the compliment. That's 0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:26.480 the ultimate compliment. Come on, what's going on George here? 0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:30.000 I mean, I'm I'm throwing out verbal bouquets here. Oh, 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:33.279 I appreciate it, you know, I, like I said, Um, 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:35.080 I don't. I don't take on the most you know, 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:39.000 I don't. I love compliments. I appreciate that, But like 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:41.160 I said, I just like to work hard and as 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:43.240 long as my teammates and then the rest of the 0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:45.720 league respects where I'm playing the game. I'm doing all right? 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:48.560 What's the background there? You've spent no time on the 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:52.960 background there? Don't mean the piece next to me? Oh? No, 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:55.240 you got it? Like the shades are down? Is that 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:58.479 a like something's hanging up over your your shoulder there? 0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:02.799 You're that's my first robow Jersey? Oh little little tilt 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:06.160 tilted a camera that way? Let me see what that? 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:09.440 That's it? Okay? Anything else here? I see that's not 0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:13.800 a virgal compliment. Dan, that wasn't great. I'm moving house 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:15.760 and so I'll have about my jerseys frame. There's a 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:18.719 wall right here full of like twelve jerseys from guys 0:06:18.720 --> 0:06:21.159 I like in the NFL, so all those are all 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:23.640 be framed at some point. Did anybody say no to 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:28.280 you when you asked for a jersey? I don't think so, 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.240 not that I'm aware of. I've actually get a couple, 0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:34.880 so that's pretty fun too. Well, who who did you get? That? 0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:38.600 Mike surprised me? Who did I that might surprise you. 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:41.600 I traded jerseys with Mike Evans at the Pro Bowl. 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:45.360 That was pretty fun. Let's see who else? Adrian Clayborne, 0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:48.400 he's an Iowa guy. And then the wrestaurant were basically 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:51.080 tight ends. I just got a wall of tight ends. 0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:56.119 I got Bobby Wagner, Chrish McCaffrey up top. But uh yeah, 0:06:56.160 --> 0:06:58.320 I mean I have like, yeah, ten tight ends. I 0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:00.040 like to trade with every single tight end that I 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.960 like because I love the position. I love everybody that 0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:04.800 plays it. Where are you going to watch the game? 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:09.240 I think my house, wherever my wife tells me too. 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.680 Is she watching with you? Uh? Yeah, I mean my 0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:15.960 whole family lives in Nashville, so we'll probably watched together. 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:21.600 Does she get nervous? What's she like when you're playing? Um, 0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:24.480 let's see, she's usually very happy and she I mean 0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:26.480 she loves football, she loves watching it, she loves being 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:29.840 in stands. Um, I think I get if I get tackled, 0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:32.000 she yells at me. I can then hear that occasionally 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:37.840 from the stands. She's yelling at you. Oh yeah, yeah, 0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:41.679 what are you doing. I'll try not to get tackled, 0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:44.440 my bad. I know you're making a pitch with Bolt 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:49.480 twenty four by Gatorade. So uh, phillis in who finally 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:52.200 Boult twenty four Gatorade? That got it right here with me. 0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:54.880 You can see it all around. Oh wow, product placement, 0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:59.520 it's natural, right. Yeah. I'm really excited to work with 0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:03.160 Gatorade because it's a product that I've used my entire 0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:04.720 life since being a little kid. You know, I remember 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:08.040 drinking Gatorade after like my little peevie football games and 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:09.880 so being and a chance to work with them is 0:08:10.080 --> 0:08:11.520 it's kind of like a dream come true. Like I 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:14.400 never didn't think that this was a possibility. But the 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:19.120 Bolt twenty four, it's delicious, it's new, it's amazing. But really, 0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:20.960 I think my favorite part of it it's it's healthier 0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:23.440 and it's made with watermelon water and no artificial flavors 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.960 or sweeteners, and so I really like that and it 0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:28.320 allows me to be I could drink it whenever I 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.320 want because it is healthier and have to worry about anything, 0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:33.079 and just allows me to be the best athlete I 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:36.000 can be every single day. And I'll give you another compliment. 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:37.840 I don't think Gronk could have delivered it that way. 0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:40.120 I think you did a great job delivering that better 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.839 than Gronk could have. I appreciate that you can take 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:44.600 that up with him. I don't know if he'll agree 0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:48.160 with you, but okay, but since you love all tight ends, 0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:49.800 you got to pick one tight end to win the 0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.679 Super Bowl? Which tight end do you want to win 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:56.000 the Super Bowl? Which do I want to win? And 0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:57.600 I want them both, and when I want them both 0:08:57.600 --> 0:09:00.880 have one hundred fift yards and two touchdowns, including unlikely George, 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:03.960 it's very unlikely they both will win. I've seen that 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:06.960 is unlikely here, right It is No, that'd be tough. 0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:10.400 But um say, this is my thanking Dan, and you 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:12.600 can tell me if I'm wrong. She's really good. They're 0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:15.520 clicking right now. Offense, Chiefs are good. Hold on, PAULI, 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.280 would you write this down, George is give me some 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:20.240 real deep insights. The Chiefs are really good, and they're clicking, 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:23.800 really good. They're clicking, clicking, And but the Buccaneers that 0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:25.480 Tom Brady, and I just don't know how to ever 0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:27.880 go against Tom Brady in the playoffs and or Super Bowl. 0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:30.640 Have you had a conversation with Tom No, I never 0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:33.959 had the opportunity to play him.

We make way for Chase Young, great 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:29.719 player for the Washington football team. You just reacted to 0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:33.800 that there, Chase. You surprised that Mahomes's dad is fifty 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:39.120 and you know Brady's forty three. Yes, uh, I just 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:42.800 repeated it when you said it. That's crazy. But Tom's 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:50.280 what twice as old as you. Yeah, but how strange 0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:52.719 is that that you're you know, when you faced him, 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:54.760 you're looking at over the line of scrimmage. You're like, 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:58.680 that dude is forty three. That's crazy. I have us 0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:01.400 since you know, I was able to play Madden. Um 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:05.400 he was on the game. So it's definitely it's crazy 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:08.959 to play against it. You know, somebody that's just been 0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:11.760 watching a whole life. I love the confidence you said 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:13.719 you wanted Tom. Of course you want time. I mean, 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:17.080 you're you're you're a competitor. I don't know why everybody thought, 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:19.240 oh be careful what you ask for. I'm like, don't 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:22.520 bring it. Like if you didn't want Tom, I would 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:25.800 have questions about you Chase. Right. Yeah, it's a you know, 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:29.160 you know sometimes the media like to you know, get 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.440 what they can grab. Man. You know, just try to 0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.160 make a big story around the day that to a 0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.160 big game. So I even being a young player, you know, 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:40.320 I know how to uh how that is. Um. But yeah, 0:11:40.440 --> 0:11:42.680 like you said, I'm a competitor and uh, you know 0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:45.520 every quarterback I chase, UM, I chased down out every 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:49.920 quarterback I played. I want to get um. So, uh, 0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:52.920 today's National recruiting Day? Can you take us back or 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:55.800 signing day? H can you take us back to your 0:11:55.920 --> 0:12:00.360 national signing day? Uh? Yeah, it was, it was It 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:02.320 was at h It was at my high school actually, 0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:05.040 um and and uh that's just we kind of do 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:08.079 it after school. UM. And our coach he he went 0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:10.840 from person to person, uh and just tell and tell 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:14.040 everybody where we were going and uh, um, you know, 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:17.400 full rising and just and just talking about the season 0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:19.760 and and just uh you know what we did in 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:22.080 high school. But h, it was definitely a crazy time. 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:24.880 You didn't go to Ohio State where were you going 0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:32.800 probably Obama. Yo? Did you have to tell Nick Saban 0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:36.880 you weren't going to Alabama? M Nah? It was a 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:40.760 it was a it was a it was a family thing. 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:43.200 I chose. I chose, uh the squad I was going too. 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:46.200 I chose with my mom my dad. So, uh, you know, 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:48.480 just what was the best for me, and obviously I 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:51.199 made made the right choice. Yeah, but you don't have 0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:54.720 to tell coach Saban that, Like, does he call and go, hey, Chase, 0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:56.720 come on, what are you doing? You coming with us? 0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:59.760 You're rolling with us? Nah? Nah? No, that's not even 0:12:59.800 --> 0:13:04.000 how really set up over there? Okay, yeah, because Nick 0:13:04.240 --> 0:13:06.400 might have been tough to say no to if he's 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:09.160 calling you on the phone. I'm guess right, yeah, definitely, 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:12.920 definitely definitely. Now was it Urban Meyer who recruited you? 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:18.800 Coach Meyer? Uh? And coach Johnson? Uh? Larry Johnson. Oh okay, 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:21.720 how do you think Urban's gonna do in the NFL? 0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:25.480 Knowing his temperament, how he coached in college, I think 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.959 he's gonna he's so Coach Meyer, he's a winner one thing. 0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:31.360 You know, he's a winner and he hates losing. Um 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:35.880 And you know, I look back now, um, and I 0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:39.880 used to. Well I look back now and just realize 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:42.480 just how great of a coach he was and how 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:46.400 he pushed me and not it really didn't even know. Um, 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:48.920 but I feel like, you know, going to the league, Um, 0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:51.920 he does not want to lose. He wants to win. 0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.480 So I know he's gonna do everything he can to win. 0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:57.920 So whatever that has to, whatever that's doing, UM, I 0:13:57.960 --> 0:13:59.920 know he's gonna take care of it. But I'm I'm 0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:04.480 definitely excited uh to uh you know, watch him on 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:07.120 on on the next level, and I believe we might 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:11.320 play them, uh just coming up season? Does he know 0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:13.040 how to stop you? Does he know the game plan 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:17.160 here to Uh I've been, I've been, I've been punishing 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:23.440 his office. I love it. I love it. He's Chase 0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:27.480 Young of the Washington football team. Uh. This story about 0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:32.040 you working on with Arnold Schwarzenegger before the NFL Draft, Like, okay, 0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:34.160 gim me, how does this come up that your work 0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:36.800 all of a sudden the terminator walks in or you 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:41.520 walk in and the terminators there. Uh it was kind 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.480 of Um I walk in and you know he was there, 0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:47.600 and uh we we we had worked out and uh 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:49.520 it was really a lot of talking, just me picking 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:53.320 his brain. Just asked the question about about everything, and uh, 0:14:53.400 --> 0:14:56.960 you know now we're uh we're we're real good friends. 0:14:57.000 --> 0:15:00.280 And uh, you know, while I'm out here at I 0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:07.880 definitely planning to sing. Who could lift more? Oh? No, 0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:10.120 that ass I mean back then, I don't know. He 0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:15.360 was young. He got me for sure. I'm just curious. 0:15:15.400 --> 0:15:17.720 You know it used to be, you know whatever, mister 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:20.200 Olympia there a few times, so I'm guessing he could 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:23.680 throw some iron around here. Chase. Oh yeah, Uh were 0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:27.440 you you were in the school choir? Yes, Like did 0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:30.560 you take it seriously? So you're pretty serious? I was? 0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:37.000 Or did you go there just to meet girls? Both? Okay, 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:40.320 what should you do better? The girls? You're actually performing? 0:15:41.560 --> 0:15:44.120 I mean, you know with females. I never really had 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:51.240 a super big problem say that. But uh um, now 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:53.800 I definitely want to. I was. Uh. I would leave 0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:57.960 sing um sometimes uh and do little solos um and 0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:01.720 in front of my whole um school. No King, We'll 0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:06.720 go to church. Yeah. Uh my court teacher was miss Lynn. 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:13.240 It was my uh my my fifth grade teacher. Um 0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:15.760 and yeah, so I will go and I will sing 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:18.200 up this sometimes by myseld at school. So do you 0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:22.280 want to sing the national anthem? I probably could? Well, No, 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:24.440 do you want to? Because I can make some calls. 0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:29.680 I know many people. I'm gonna catch you on the 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:32.000 rebound room. Okay, all right, I'm just saying, if you 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:34.560 want to sing the anthem, and you know what, maybe 0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:38.240 you could do it for a Washington Nationals game. Doesn't 0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:40.480 even have to be for the football game. You could 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:45.880 off season. Yeah yeah, I think it'd be pretty good. Uh. 0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:48.880 You face Tampa this year. Uh if you were going 0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:54.560 to give some advice to Honey Badger or Chris Jones, 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:59.080 what would you say? I mean, I'm done two guys. 0:16:59.120 --> 0:17:02.520 You know, I don't even think I have to give 0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:04.840 too much advice to him. I mean, I know, I know, 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:07.960 I know the Honeyman. I know Tarran watching him. Um, 0:17:08.240 --> 0:17:10.359 I know, I know big big Chrisy.

And Brandon Huffman, he 0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:05.840 is the twenty four seven Sports National Recruiting editor here 0:19:05.880 --> 0:19:10.320 to talk about just how good this Alabama recruiting class 0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:14.800 was and is it truly generational? And Brandon joins us. Now, Brandon, 0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:19.680 thanks for joining us. Where does this Alabama recruiting class rank? Well, 0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:22.480 it just clinched the top overall spot in the history 0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:25.280 of twenty four seven Sports recruiting rankings. And they still 0:19:25.320 --> 0:19:27.119 may not be done. They're still in contention for the 0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:30.080 number one player in the country, but as of this morning, 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:34.000 they have already inked with the pen putting paper the 0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:36.800 number one class in the history of recruiting with some 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:39.320 of the most elite talent that you've seen. It's on 0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:41.680 part of their twenty seventeen class that they signed with 0:19:41.920 --> 0:19:45.080 Davonte Smith and Naji Harris. But this class might be 0:19:45.280 --> 0:19:47.800 Nick Saban's best class that he's ever signed, which is 0:19:47.800 --> 0:19:51.159 saying something considering the success he's had in Tussaloosa. The 0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.840 best recruiting class prior to Alabama this year was turned 0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:58.800 in by Florida yeah Port in twenty ten, and you 0:19:58.840 --> 0:20:00.480 could say that might have been the clas sept broke 0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:04.160 urban Meyer at Florida and caused him to eventually walk 0:20:04.200 --> 0:20:06.960 away from that job. This class looks a little bit 0:20:07.040 --> 0:20:09.520 less risky than that Florida two thousand and ten class did, 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:11.120 and a lot of guys that I expect to play 0:20:11.280 --> 0:20:14.360 right away. But it wasn't just guys on the offensive 0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:17.280 line defensive line. As Nick Saban always does, he gets 0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:19.879 players at every key position. And that's why this class 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:23.640 ranked so high. Where did you guys have Patrick Mahomes 0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:25.720 when he was coming out of high school? So he 0:20:25.720 --> 0:20:27.600 was running to the high three star coming out in 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:31.480 that two fourteen class, behind guys like Kyle Allen Keller, 0:20:31.520 --> 0:20:33.480 Chris So at the time was committed to Stanford was 0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:36.200 being tauted as the next Andrew Luck. Mahomes was kind 0:20:36.200 --> 0:20:38.600 of forgotten A little bit. Part of that reason was 0:20:38.640 --> 0:20:40.800 there was still a thinking that he might go to 0:20:40.880 --> 0:20:43.720 baseball route. There wasn't even certainty he was going to 0:20:43.760 --> 0:20:46.840 be a football player. Baseball was still looming there as 0:20:46.840 --> 0:20:48.920 a potential threat for him, but he was a high 0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:51.320 three star and ultimately made a lot of people look 0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:55.040 really foolish with that decision. And Trevor Lawrence was number one, 0:20:55.119 --> 0:20:56.720 and here he is going to go number one in 0:20:56.760 --> 0:21:01.119 the draft. Justin Fields was two in that recruiting class 0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:04.199 and he'll be a first round draft pick. So you know, 0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:07.119 we hit and miss at that position, but you're no 0:21:07.240 --> 0:21:11.439
