60
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 3: feels like a college town because I bade the campuses

61
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,600

62
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 2: So I love it so much.

63
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you're coming up through high school, like what

64
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 1: what made you choose Texas?

65
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 3: Just just a lot of prayer, bro Like, like you know,

66
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 3: my faith is my big it is my biggest thing.

67
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 3: So I just knew like that's where God wanted me

68
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 3: to go. And I mean what three years later, like

69
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 3: he was right. But it was more so like the

70
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 3: coaches there. I mean, I had like my first running

71
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 3: back coach because Drake and he he was like the

72
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 3: best college running back coach in the country. I mean

73
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 3: he had like Ezekiel Elliott at Ohio State, like he

74
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: did so many, he had so many guys. So when

75
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 3: I went to him, it was like a no brainer.

76
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 3: And my first year, like it was hard. It was hard,

77
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 3: bro because I had I had COVID, so it was

78
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 3: a COVID year for me. I came in in the summer,

79
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 3: so I didn't have like that spring that spring development.

80
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it was.

81
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 3: It was a good time, like just going there and

82
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: learning from him at first, and then obviously he got

83
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 3: a head coaching job and then the rest.

84
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 2: Was history because any other school that came close State.

85
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 3: So I hate to hear this, I hate to hear this,

86
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 3: but like so I silently committed to Ohio State for

87
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 3: a week.

88
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 5: Silently committed for the second time we've heard that. I know,

89
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 5: it's like that little yeah for a week.

90
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 2: I'm just letting you know, Yeah, that side girl talk again.

91
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 4: Here, That's what it was. And it was like it

92
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 4: was more so.

93
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 3: It was more so like people and players like in

94
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 3: my ear telling me like you got to go here,

95
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 3: you should go here, like we're gonna build the dynasty here,

96
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 3: They're gonna be amazing, which could have been true, but

97
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 3: I just knew, like, you know, I could I could

98
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 3: really go to Texas for you know, a forty year

99
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,200

Speaker 3: somebody here and always come back here and always like

101
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 3: feel like this is this was always the place for me.

102
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 4: And then I mean that was the main decision.

103
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 3: But yeah for a week, man, And I told the

104
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 3: coaches like that was the hardest conversation in my life.

105
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, how when you decommitted?

106
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,119
Speaker 4: How was it was tough?

107
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 3: It was tough because I called I called the coaches

00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 4: Place for me.

113
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 3: Like having to say that to like a grown man

114
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,119
Speaker 3: and then him be like what are you talking about?

115
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 3: Like I I sent all my running backs away like

116
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 3: you were only one of was getting only guilt trip.

117
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 4: It was man, it was crazy.

118
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 5: It's got to be a heartbreak whenever that. Yeah, because

119
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 5: he's a fire. I mean he was the man.

120
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 2: He is the man.

121
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: Yeah he's continued to stay yeah, man, then they fizzle out,

122
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: still staying the man.

123
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, I appreciate it. Yeah, Like it was just it was.

124
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 3: It was just tough, like to have that conversation as

125
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 3: a seventeen year old kid.

126
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 2: And then him going the ran. You still just be like,

127
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 2: I know, I'm sorry.

128
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 4: I know.

129
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 3: It was like I was with my family and they're

130
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 3: just like like.

131
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: Get him on speakerphone, Yeah, this phone, I know, coach,

132
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, coach.

133
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 4: It was the biggest.

134
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 5: Position coach and knowing like who they've mentored coach, Yes,

135
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 5: what was the big pivotal.

136
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 2: Thing for you?

137
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 3: Was it that it was a position coach because you're

138
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 3: just like you're gonna be with him your whole time,

139
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 3: so I think and he and even just talking to

140
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 3: like other running backs you know before before I got there,

141
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 3: and like Reggie Bush, like his position coach in college

142
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 3: was that was his guy. Like he said, this is

143
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 3: the position coaches was most important because if you don't

144
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 3: agree with him and he doesn't agree with you, then

145
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 3: you're not playing and he doesn't trust you. And then

146
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 3: he's he talks to the head coach like he's the

147
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 3: most important important guy for yourself. So even hearing that,

148
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,679
Speaker 3: I was like, all right, so let me like actually

149
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 3: build a relationship. And then the crazy thing is like

150
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 3: nowadays in nil and stuff. Bro, No, No relationships are

151
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 3: being built like and then that's why you see so

152
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 3: many transfers and so many kids going to other places

153
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 3: because they're getting promised one thing and then they're not

154
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 3: producing on the field. So after one year and not

155
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 3: even after one year, after one some like like spring semester,

156
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 3: like they're leaving and I'm like, bro, Like, first of all,

157
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 3: it looks bad in my opinion, but it's like you

158
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 3: should have been building that relationship with the coach and

159
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 3: knowing you can have that trust with him before you

160
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 3: even get there, so you understand that when you're there,

161
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 3: like you know what's gonna come, you know what's about

162
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 3: to happen beforehand. So I think that's kind of where

163
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 3: college football is changing. And I get it, like you

164
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 3: got to make your money and stuff.

165
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 2: No, not thinking too much long term, thinking like what

166
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 2: did I get here? Now? Exactly did you ever get

167
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 2: tempted by some pre in I l in I l.

168
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: I never did never no once't say names.

169
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 2: Yeah pre and iol.

170
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 3: I didn't have but I didn't have it. I didn't

171
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 3: have an io when I came. I know, so like

172
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 3: even like the under the table stuff like it just

173
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 3: never came across an don't name names. Did anybody ever

174
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 3: try under the table stuff?

175
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 4: And then they tried.

176
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 3: They tried with my coach, my high school coach, and

177
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 3: he was like, nah, like this isn't who like this

178
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:51,640

179
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 3: to come here off of begging or off of trying

180
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 3: to get him with some money, so that he that

181
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 3: that all got sent away.

182

Speaker 4: Like you like I feel like if a s.

191
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 3: U was was a consistently really good team, like they

192
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 3: would get everybody.

193
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: Because the thing that's wild to me about as U

194
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: is like they have all the makings to have a

195
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: good team. They have great weather, beautiful people there, there's

196
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,839
Speaker 1: a lot of nightlife you can just bring like, hey, yo,

197
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: we can create something beautiful.

198
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 2: And you have so much fun. That's to say, so

199
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: much money in Phoenix, so.

200
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 3: Much you have and you have all these different areas

201
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 3: like sponsors that will sponsor you, but I.

202
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: Don't know, it was never you talk about building relationships

203
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: and how it's become way more transactional in college coming

204
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: in the NFL. This is truly where it's a transactional business.

205
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: Like you can what's the phrase you use, you love

206
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: me but don't trust me? Yeah, yeah, I love you,

207
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: but don't ever trust me. Right, that's the kind of

208
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: the mindset of all these coaches. They want to build

209
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: a relationship. At any point. If you're not doing your job,

210
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: we'll see you later, no doubt. Do you Are you

211
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: aware of that and still continue to build relationships regardless, Yeah.

212
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 4: I'm definitely. I'm definitely aware of it.

213
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 3: You know, I've seen that firsthand, Like you know, guys

214
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 3: have been here and then next day, like they're not

215
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 3: here anymore. And like my freshman, my freshman my first

216
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 3: year last year, you know, just just during reco MINTI camp,

217
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 3: like I was with so many guys up to that point,

218
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 3: and then when we start with the team, then a

219
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 3: lot of them are here and it was like it

220
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 3: was like a shock to me. I was like, it's crazy.

221
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 3: I just built a relationship with these kids, Like with

222
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 3: these dudes and then now they're not here no more,

223
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 3: and it's like, okay, so now you kind of see

224
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 3: like where the business is. And then even even like

225
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 3: coaches too, next day they're here, one day they or not.

226
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 3: And I'm like, right, like this whole time we've been gelling.

227
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 3: And but I see it, like like that statement right there,

228
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 3: I feel it's true. But for me, I think it's

229
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 3: still important to you know, build a relationship with those

230
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 3: coaches because you know, like I was just telling him,

231
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 3: like like Lord Willing, I could stay here in my

232
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 3: whole career, but say I'm not, and say those coaches

233
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 3: are somewhere else. Like you built those relationships so like

234
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 3: they trust you, so when you're somewhere else and they're

235
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 3: somewhere else, then they'll then they'll.

236
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 4: Like bouch out for you and pick you up.

237
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 2: Right.

238
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 3: So that's why I think it's like, that's why I

239
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 3: think you should keep keep the relationship out the whole time.

240
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: Talk Talk Talk Us through your rookie year.

241
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 5: I listen to your podcast you did on the Pivot,

242
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 5: which is right before the drafty you do go the

243
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 5: first round, which is awesome, and talk about that process

244
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,559
Speaker 5: getting draft in the first round and then kicking off

245
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 5: your rookie year.

246
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, I mean so so during that process, Like

247
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 3: it's a long process. So just from from when I'm

248
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 3: done with my last year in my junior year and

249
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 3: then up to the draft, Like those five months, five

250
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 3: six months are long, and it's repetitive of talking to coaches,

251
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 3: going doing combined training, doing interview training, Like I'm doing

252
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 3: so many things and.

253
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 4: For me, like I love to do other stuff.

254
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 3: So I want to be an actor when I'm done

255
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 3: playing football one day. And I've been doing like acting classes,

256
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 3: but that's those acting classes have been helping for the

257
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 3: interview training because like it gets you comfortable and talking

258
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 3: to coaches and get you comfortable and being in different

259
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 3: areas with a lot of people in one setting. So

260
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 3: like me having to go through that was was alarm process.

261
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 3: But and then on top of that, like I was

262
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 3: in the controversy of should you take a running back

263
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 3: in the top ten, Like yeah, should you you know, yes,

264
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 3: you know, he might have the talent, he might be

265
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 3: the most talented, but like should you still do it?

266
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 4: Should you invest in it?

267
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 3: So I was like hearing all that type of stuff too,

268
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 3: and like it was It was weird because like some

269
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 3: days I'll be walking walking just on the street and

270
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 3: you see a TV in a restaurant and it's like

271
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 3: your face is the one that's up there on like

272
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 3: should you do this?

273
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 4: Should you do that?

274
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 3: I'm like, and then that's the questions that I've been

275
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 3: getting asked. So like that was like a definitely a

276
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 3: different process for me. But I think when you do

277
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 3: get drafted, like that was, it's like the best frienally

278
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 3: ever obviously, and going to the draft like experiencing that,

279
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 3: you know, if you have the opportunity to do that,

280
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 3: I think you you most definitely should as a player.

281
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 3: But then when I got here, you know, that's when

282
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 3: we started started rookie mini camp and like that's what's

283
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 3: about to happen right now here, and it's crazy like

284
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 3: that was a year ago, but like that was I

285
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 3: think that was like a really great process for me,

286
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 3: rooky mini camp, because for me, like, yeah, I play more.

287
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 3: I played running back, but I play other positions too,

288
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 3: Like I play receiver, play slot. You can line me

289
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 3: up anywhere. So like I really appreciate, you know, Arthur

290
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 3: Smith for doing that to me because you know, with him,

291
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 3: with him doing that for me, like now where I'm at,

292
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 3: the game just like slowed down so much, like instantly

293
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 3: because I'm learning so many different things.

294
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, from linebackers to coverages to everything.

295
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 3: So and then obviously with the season, like yes, it

296
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 3: was definitely a blessing of a season, you know, for myself,

297
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 3: but even just learning, you know, how guys are, how

298
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 3: coaches are, like it.

299
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 4: Was, it was definitely a fun a fun, fun time

300
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 4: for me.

301
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: Was it the hardest thing for you was the speed

302
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: of the game at first? Or what was the biggest

303
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: culture shock for you diving to the NFL your first

304
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: couple of games.

305
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it wasn't really the speed of the game,

306
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 3: because dudes are a little faster than college. But I

307
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 3: think it was more so like dudes are smarter in

308
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 3: the league, so like you're not going to see a

309
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 3: lot of guys like miss their gaps. You're not gonna

310
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 3: see a lot of guys under pursuit, and dudes are

311
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 3: always chasing the ball somewhere somehow. But I think you know,

312
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 3: when you when you get a grasp of it and

313
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 3: understand it, then then y'all you'll start to click. But

314
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 3: when you find your rhythm. Then then it's like you're

315
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 3: playing collegeball game.

316
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, when that camerangle came out, you're shifting around and

317
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 5: that shit was nasty.

318
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and for me, So for me, like in college,

319
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 3: like I would bring out the shifts and stuff sometimes,

320
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 3: but like not a lot. But I think I think

321
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 3: now in the NFL it gives me way more freedom

322
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 3: to do that because dudes are coming from different angles

323
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 3: in different areas and you're always trying to get yards,

324
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 3: but you're always trying to find a way to like

325
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 3: make somebody miss because somebody's always right here.

326
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 4: So I get to like.

327
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 2: Obviously just slow a process down that I can.

328
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 3: I'll feel a defender coming any which way, and then

329
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 3: I know I have to do something real quick because

330
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 3: if I don't, like they're going to make a tackle.

331
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

332
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 3: So like breaking tackles for me is like it's a

333
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 3: fun thing, which is interesting.

334
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 2: Breaking tackle is a fun thing. Absolutely.

335
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 5: It's fascinating to hear him talk about it because it's

336
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 5: it's like clearly he's like, I've added more shift shiftingess

337
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 5: to my game, but basically because the game has gotten faster,

338
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 5: he's developed quicker.

339
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 3: There is That's exactly it so like because the game's

340
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 3: gotten faster, like I have to get faster in my

341
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 3: process and.

342
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: Just set your head, I'm going to get faster and well.

343
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 2: Even his instincts it ends up coming.

344
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like it's like you're in the I don't

345
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 3: even know how to explain it if you could, if

346
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 3: I if I, if I could, It's like you're in

347
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 3: a I haven't seen a John Wick.

348
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you have seen John Wick?

349
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, yeah.

350
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 3: So there's like the scene and like John wait two

351
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 3: and like they were all surrounded him and he was

352
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 3: just like looking around like trying to find anything, but

353
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 3: they were all attacking him. But like that's kind of

354
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 3: like what you're in when you're going up against.

355
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 2: And you're figuring it out.

356
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 3: You're figuring it out, just feeling one thing to the

357
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 3: next and versus fast. But then when it slows down

358
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 3: then it's like then that's when it gets dangerous.

359
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 2: John Wick or Jason Bourne Wick.

360
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 4: Have you seen Jason? I have?

361
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 3: I have?

362
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 4: I have seen them all. I haven't seen him.

363
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 3: But okay, that's right, Okay, I can't say I can't

364
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 3: say that if I haven't seen them all.

365
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 2: You can stand on business. I'm whatever you want.

366
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: I'm glad to have your opinion on busting with the boys.

367
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: Yea who in a straight fight?

368
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 4: John Wick is like never lost to me.

369
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 2: He actually loses frequently.

370
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 4: He does.

371
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: He does frequently gets a lot of help, but he.

372
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 4: Loses in a way that he looked like he won.

373
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 2: Like he does.

374
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 4: He does.

375
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: You got to go back and wants the Jason Bourde movies.

376
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: He never actually gets his ass beat. There's not one

377
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: scene he's like that tactical. He's always one step ahead

378
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: of the game. John Wick. How many times in those

379
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: movies JP was he just his ass was saved?

380
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 2: The last movie he's going up those damn stairs.

381
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: He gets his ass kicks seventeen times and gets his

382
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: ass saved. It's great, but it's a great movie. No

383
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 1: we did it. You talk about like things clicking for you.

384
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: At what point the season last year, we're like, okay,

385
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: like I'm officially finding my speed. Rob is to touch

386
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: above everybody else.

387
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 3: So that first game of the season, I like had

388
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 3: this touchdown and when my first touchdown, like I made

389
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 3: this move and broke a couple of tackles. At that point,

390
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 3: I was like, oh shoot, like I could do this

391
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 3: like at a high level. But then the second game

392
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 3: we played the Packers, and like I walked on the

393
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 3: field and obviously, like God gifted me with talent and everything,

394
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 3: but then it's like you walk on the field and

395
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 3: like everything's just slowing down. It's like slow motion, and

396
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 3: like I'm in the huddle, and when I like break

397
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 3: the huddle, it's like I'm backing up and they're like

398
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 3: moving slow.

399
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 4: It's like some it's insane.

400
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 3: And so when I when the ball snaps, like I'm

401
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 3: anticipating everything like quick quick, and I mean, that was

402
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 3: an awesome game, but it was just like the and

403
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 3: I never even explained this, but it was just like

404
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 3: the process of like what I was processing during that

405
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 3: game and then the rest of the season.

406
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 2: It was something that like I was like, man, this

407
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 2: is pretty cool.

408
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 3: And obviously like you got to watch a lot of

409
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 3: film and that's all that film study and everything like

410
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 3: that to anticipate everything, but actually like feeling it and

411
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 3: seeing it that fast, it was pretty It was pretty dope.

412
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 5: Last year, Like on the outside looking in, I want

413
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 5: to say it was maybe the middle of the year.

414
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 5: Your workload would shift around and I feel like Coach

415
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 5: Smith would get questioned about it and wouldn't say too

416
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 5: much about anything happening behind the scenes or wouldn't really

417
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 5: tip off anything that's going on. Is there anything that

418
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 5: was happening in the middle of the year to where

419
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:49,199
Speaker 5: your workload was shifting or to where you're hearing the

420
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 5: same stuff the external noise and whatever conversations you're having

421
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 5: with Coach Smith's behind closed doors, Like you know, people

422
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 5: who are curious about what.

423
00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,160
Speaker 6: Was going down last year? Is there any insight to that? Yes, Oh,

424
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 6: it was more so of me hearing the external noise.

425
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,360
Speaker 6: And like, you know, fantasy football is a big thing.

426
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 2: It's so like I had you, I had.

427
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 3: So like a lot of people had me on their

428
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 3: fantasy team, so we would get lot.

429
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 2: Of check your dms.

430
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 3: But yeah, like here in the middle of the season,

431
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 3: you know, so so Coch Smith was you know trying

432
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 3: to you know, make me comfortable in the game and

433
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 3: make me comfortable with situations, and you know he was

434
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 3: just you know, trying to protect me and do what

435
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 3: every coach like because what Coach Smith didn't want to

436
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 3: do was was Derrick Henry me year one, like twenty

437
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 3: eight carries, twenty five carries like you're taking all this

438
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 3: workload year one because he was trying to like gradually

439
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 3: get me, get me ready to eventually do all that

440
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 3: type of stuff.

441
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 2: But probably from all over the field.

442
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 3: You're right, and like at the be end of the season,

443
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 3: like those first five games, like it was I was

444
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 3: like rolling, and then like in the in the middle

445
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 3: of the season, it was more so okay, it's like

446
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 3: let's get him, let's get him back to like gradually

447
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 3: kind of you know, getting them right.

448
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,120
Speaker 5: Were you injured, Whe's there stuff going on towards saying, hey,

449
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 5: we want to Okay, I know we're we're picking up

450
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 5: your workload, like let's kind of maybe mitigate some of

451
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 5: the reps in the middle of the year and start

452
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 5: to make a run at the end of the year.

453
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,199
Speaker 3: So yeah, but it was that, but it wasn't like

454
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 3: because of the injury and at the same time, like

455
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 3: my workload was becoming excessive, and you know, I was

456
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 3: I was running go routes, I was motioning, I was

457
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 3: doing all types of stuff, running the football, blocking in

458
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 3: on third down. And you know, for me, like we

459
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 3: have Tyler Algiers, he's the other running back. He's super good,

460
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 3: and you know, we played off each other really well,

461
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 3: and which obviously helped both of us a lot, but

462
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 3: you know, it was more so like doing all those

463
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 3: extra things to to be the decoy for the defense,

464
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 3: you know, because if I go on motion and then

465
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 3: that everybody's up, yeah, then it would shift on the

466
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 3: defense and it could open somebody else up. So like

467
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,200
Speaker 3: that was that was where his thinking was. And yeah,

468
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 3: it you know, my worklow wasn't a lot like it.

469
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,479
Speaker 3: It would decrease in terms of like getting carries and stuff,

470
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 3: but he was just trying to, you know, gradually get

471
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 3: me right in different situations. Because obviously, like towards the

472
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 3: end of the season and then it started picking up again,

473
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 3: but it was just at like the middle point of

474
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:26,120
Speaker 3: the season.

475
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 4: That that's where his and that's where his mind was at.

476
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 2: Now are you guys talking through this wall, it's all going.

477
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 3: Down as Yeah, like we're all we were always on

478
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 3: the same page.

479
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 4: We're always on the same page.

480
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 3: Obviously everybody else didn't agree with it, but we always knew,

481
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 3: you know, what the plan was. And he told me

482
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 3: what the plan was before the season even started, and

483
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 3: I was perfectly okay with it. But and everybody was

484
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 3: but I mean as you start getting questions from the

485
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 3: media and as you start going on like there it is, yeah,

486
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,640
Speaker 3: there it is, And then you have you have fantasy

487
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 3: you know players, you know, and on social media like

488
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 3: what's going on?

489
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 4: What was happening? Like, so it.

490
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 3: All tied in, but we were always like on the

491
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 3: same page. And then towards the end of the season,

492
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 3: that's what everything started to pay back up.

493
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you uh, when this is all going down

494
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 1: and like you're getting this heavy workload. Then towards like

495
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: the middle lull, Yeah, everyone started to ask questions. At

496
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: any point, did you want to be like, hey, this

497
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: is part of the plan. Did you ever want to

498
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: speak up for that situation or you just kind of

499
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 1: had to sit back and let the noise be noise.

500
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 3: I just kind of sat back and let let the

501
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 3: noise be noise, and you know, yeah, I'll get media

502
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 3: questions from the media, and I was just kind to

503
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 3: tell them like like you just said, like you know,

504
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 3: this is all part of the process. You know, this

505
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 3: all guy's plan, like which it was like and just

506
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 3: for me just understanding mentally and physically where where I

507
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 3: was at. But then you know, when when when things

508
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 3: did start, you know, picking up. Then then we saw

509
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 3: the end the vision of it. But that middle like

510
00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 3: three four weeks, it was like yeah, like what's happening?

511
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 3: And but we we knew the whole time, like where

512
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 3: we were going with it.

513
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 5: What kind of jump do you see yourself making going

514
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 5: into year two? Like what are your what are your

515
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 5: goals and aspirations for b Jhon Robinson?

516
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean obviously, Bro like to to elevate as

517
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 3: a teammate. So I want to be like I want

518
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 3: to leave by example in a way that you know,

519
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 3: everybody will be on the same page, you know what

520
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 3: I'm doing, and you know, for me, I think it

521
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 3: was really good to have, you know, the vets that

522
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 3: we did have last year because I learned so much

523
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 3: from them. Like even like Kalays Campbell like Bro, like

524
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 3: he's ultimately he's got that voice too, got that voice.

525
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

526
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 4: Yeah.

527
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 3: He would just sit down with me, Like he sat

528
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 3: down with me at the end of the season and

529
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 3: he was like, yo, be like you can really be

530
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 3: the best running back in the NFL for a long time, Bro,

531
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 3: And he was saying, but you shouldn't go in every

532
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 3: day saying that like you obviously you're very humble, but

533
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 3: you should. You should just do it by your work

534
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 3: and just show everybody because for me, like I'm big

535
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 3: with finishing, so like after a run, I finished always

536
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 3: in the end zone. Sometimes coaches hate that, but you know,

537
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 3: my coaches like are cool, like they love it because

538
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 3: it shows everybody else like that's what we got to do.

539
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 3: And you know, for me, I think just me doing

540
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 3: that type of stuff in practice, and you know, even

541
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 3: just asking questions to other players on what their goals

542
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 3: are and where they want to see each other because

543
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 3: obviously I think as a team, you know, we want

544
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 3: to win the super Bowl, like like but that's what

545
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 3: everybody says, Like everybody's like, we want to win super Bowl,

546
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 3: we want super Bowl. But it's like, what are you

547
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 3: going to do you know as a team, you know,

548
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: and when nobody's watching, And you know, I think team

549
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 3: dinners like stuff like that are always a big thing

550
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 3: because you build.

551
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 4: So much chemistry.

552
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 3: And that's why I appreciate like even Kirk, because we

553
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 3: be out there, you know, grinding every single day on offense,

554
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 3: like trying to just build the most chemistry because obviously

555
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 3: we're on the field. Then that's what what we're trying

556
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 3: to do is be great. And then for me, like, yeah,

557
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 3: obviously I have these goals that I that I set

558
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:02,479
Speaker 3: for myself, and I set stronomical goals, like I think

559
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 3: I even said an interview that I want to get

560
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 3: two thousand yards, but like it wasn't me saying that.

561
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 3: It was just the goal I have to set for

562
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 3: myself because obviously, like we have Tyler al Jerry, like

563
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 3: we have you know, that one two punch, and I

564
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 3: just want us to just kill the.

565
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 5: You're not saying it to diminish anything else. You're saying like, yeah,

566
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 5: I'm trying to get two k facts facts, So like

567
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 5: you can take that and run with that quite a bit.

568
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, with uh you brought up Kirk cousins, like

569
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: what was your reaction when Atlanta signed Kirk and how

570
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 1: has your relationship grown since.

571
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:32,880
Speaker 2: You've met him?

572
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:34,919
Speaker 4: Man? I mean I was happy.

573
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 3: Man, I was happy, you know, just because like, yeah,

574
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 3: I mean I feel like, yeah, he is a top

575
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 3: ten quarterback. But you know, I think because you know,

576
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 3: with his faith, just how good of a dude he

577
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 3: is to other people, to his teammates.

578
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 4: That's why I was excited like I.

579
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 3: Knew he can come in here and you know, Joe

580
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 3: right away with all of us, because you know, I

581
00:25:56,119 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 3: think the cool thing that Terry obviously Raheem, Arthur Blank,

582
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 3: Arthur Smith, what they all did is like they got

583
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 3: really talented dudes, but they got really good dudes at

584
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 3: the same time. And obviously he's a good dude. So

585
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 3: I think he would come in here and you know

586
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 3: immediately like Joe with the team, and that's that's really

587
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 3: what he did. And I mean our relationship is strong already,

588
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 3: and you know, just having talks with him and understanding

589
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 3: like where his his vision is and you know where

590
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 3: he's coming from and how you know he wants everybody

591
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 3: on the offense to you know, have the best seasons

592
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 3: that they've ever had. Like that's that's huge for a

593
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 3: quarterback coming in because obviously, you know, when you're a quarterback,

594
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 3: like you know, you want that like.

595
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 4: Me, me me type of glory.

596
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 3: But with him, it's like it's all of us and

597
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 3: we're off on the eat in this offense. He's a

598
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 3: worker and everything else, even a meeting proven meetings, like

599
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 3: like he's telling you exactly how he how he sees it,

600
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 3: how he wants it how it should be, and I

601
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 3: mean I never had that, so like having that and

602
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 3: even like in practice, he'd be like, this is where where.

603
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 4: It should go. This is where how how I see it?

604
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 3: And he he hits it there every time and it's

605
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 3: like this is the game change right here.

606
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: So seen your facial expression too about Kirk.

607
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's exciting. Seen crypt chains yet, like the change

608
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 2: around No, no, no, does he have the chain? Is locker?

609
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 4: His ultimates.

610
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 2: They came out yet I can't wait to put a

611
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 2: chain on there. You know what, what else do we

612
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:35,360
Speaker 2: have for Bjeon?

613
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 5: I got I got one. Hey, the Bjon Mustards and

614
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,400
Speaker 5: the mustard. Let's talk about the brand of the mustard.

615
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, so the mustard came out like two years ago,

616
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 3: and you know it was all it was all from

617
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 3: like an idea of two guys, David and Craig. They

618
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 3: are the other owners of the mustard too, and they

619
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 3: came with this like whole presentation of like.

620
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 4: What it it's going to become, like what it should be.

621
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 3: This is before anything, and we're like in the top

622
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:07,919
Speaker 3: golf like meeting room. So they came with it and

623
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 3: at first I was like it's kind of cheesy lokey,

624
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 3: like you know that, you know, this is a little weird.

625
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 3: But uh, like they had like billboards and like murals

626
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 3: and they had like it's selling in stores, and I

627
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 3: was like, yeah, this sounds really good, but I mean

628
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 3: I just don't know how it's gonna be, so like.

629
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 2: Is it gonna sell?

630
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 4: It's gonna sell.

631
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:28,679
Speaker 2: Yeah.

632
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 3: So the two months later it came out in that summer,

633
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 3: and you know, it was like a big thing, like

634
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 3: the pr and everything, and people were like like this

635
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 3: dude has his own mustard. Like that's kind of where

636
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 3: it was at first, and so people started buying it

637
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 3: online and then like a whole bunch of people, like

638
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 3: we saw we saw an order cell from like a

639
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 3: little bit to like it just skyrocketed out of the

640
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 3: blue and so we like made merch we made all

641
00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 3: types of stuff, and I think the first six once

642
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 3: it was out and it was during that football season,

643
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 3: it was like the highest selling condiment in the US.

644
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 2: What congrats on that?

645
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 4: It was pretty cool.

646
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 2: That's a big game too.

647
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 1: Some big dogs in that game, Hines, Yeah, big, some

648
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 1: big dogs.

649
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 3: And it's crazy because you know, even even in like

650
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 3: the grocery stores like in Austin. Obviously we're trying to

651
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 3: get it across the country and in every grocery store.

652
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 3: But like every week you'll go to the grocery store

653
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 3: and it's gone, and then you'll have every other condiment

654
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 3: still there and they're just like keep reloading it. So

655
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 3: and it's cool because I mean people like when they

656
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 3: get the mustard, like they'll like take a picture with it,

657
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 3: like they're like happy about it.

658
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 4: Like you don't.

659
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 3: You're not going to hines, you catch up or muster

660
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 3: like settle, you know, and it's like it's not cool,

661
00:29:55,360 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 3: but it about to buy it up. Maybe the probably

662
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 3: they did, like obviously like somebody, you're open for.

663
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 5: Business business, have you done anything creative marketing wise yourself

664
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 5: outside of like marketing planes, Like right now I'm thinking

665
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 5: to myself.

666
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 2: Was pretty creative. He needs to have the mustard, like you.

667
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 5: Know, somebody one of the equipment guys has in the bag,

668
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 5: but he has it out on the field. Not out

669
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 5: on the field, but on the sideline and after he scores,

670
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 5: it's like he jogs over to the sideline and just

671
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 5: takes a shot of the mustard, which that right there

672
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 5: is just I mean, so there's your advertising. Yeah, if

673
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,959
Speaker 5: you have water, just a bottle, you just go right back.

674
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 5: It's like Marshawn eating the Skittles.

675
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 4: That's a matter of fact. Like that one's free.

676
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 3: We've done like marketing stuff obviously with the commercials and stuff,

677
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 3: but that one right there, like after a touchdown and

678
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 3: like somebody just throw it in the like throw it

679
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 3: from the crowd, like throw it at me.

680
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 2: You know, we can do a lot in the sideline. Yeah,

681
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 2: get a couple throw to the fans and let them

682
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 2: do it.

683
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 1: Let them do it, bro keep it under the goalpust

684
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: a hot dog and the mustard score touch down, put

685
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: the mustard on top that that would probably be a

686
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 1: fine though. That's all right, He's fine for sure, right on.

687
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 4: That's it.

688
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 2: It's nothing. It's a long term play you could do.

689
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: So yeah, well one hundred percent has to have the

690
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: design of your mustard and.

691
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,400

Speaker 3: Yeah, your team, your team, I am. I am close everybody.

831
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 5: How about your top three running backs in the NFL

832
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 5: right now? And if you could give a little synopsis

833
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 5: on what makes him great?

834
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,839
Speaker 4: All right, then I'm I'm well, my first one.

835
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 3: Number one is christ McCaffrey just because, like you know,

836
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 3: his his stopping start is incredible, and you know, I

837
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 3: watch this game so much, like I compare my game

838
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 3: to his just the most because I feel like we

839
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,880
Speaker 3: do the most similar of So I'm gonna say, I'm

840
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 3: gonna say him, and then I'm gonna say Brice Hall

841
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 3: is the other one, okay, just because like his patience,

842
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,720
Speaker 3: how he you know, invades, breaking tackles, how he getting

843
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 3: he still has a long speed, He's the other one.

844
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 3: And then my third I'm gonna have to go with

845
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:33,839
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to go with who probably Saquon I mean, yeah,

846
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 3: I know his like his situation has been tough, but

847
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 3: like I think just raw just give the talent for

848
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 3: a running back, I think he got that and his

849
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 3: like lateral movement, how he can bend and make cuts still, like.

850
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 4: How big he is, Like I think he's he's the

851
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 4: other one.

852
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 2: So it's a solid list. That's a good list. I

853
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 2: want to say those three, that's a good list.

854
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 4: Put myself in there.

855
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 2: The boy.

856
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,399
Speaker 1: I know, I was thinking that tale, but I didn't

857
00:38:58,440 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 1: want to be such a home Henery.

858
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 6: Ah see Actually I mean him in his prime, like

859
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 6: you know he's he's Hall of Famer.

860
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:10,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's yeah, most definitely he had two k Yeah,

861
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 2: he did behind this offensive line that year five games.

862
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 2: What's up? I'll take that. Come on, take credit for that, though.

863
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 4: Who's who's your top three?

864
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 2: Just podcasters?

865
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 4: Yeah?

866
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 7: Matter, yeah, podcast podcasters, rogans Rogan's one. But what makes

867
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 7: him the one, Like his ultimate curiosity, he's so present

868
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:44,919
Speaker 7: and he's so his ability to be so curious about

869
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 7: the subject at hand and be able to break that

870
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 7: down and have information about it is. I think that's

871
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 7: a that's a one of one talent.

872
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 2: In his range.

873
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 5: I mean, he can literally crazy range anybody on and

874
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 5: he does his he does his prep work.

875
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 1: He's what what was that supposed to go three first?

876
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 6: But he's yeah, yeah Brogan, God, what about full seeing like.

877
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 4: Boys, Yeah, dogs.

878
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 2: Those guys are awesome.

879
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, But like, what's the category that we're

880
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: talking about when it comes to podcasts like that?

881
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, just whatever the.

882
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: Oh I'm talking about. There's like so many podcasts. And

883
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,279
Speaker 1: then Milk Boys have a massive audience. They do a

884
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 1: great job and their content is amazing. But are we

885
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 1: talking about uh, their interviews, how they approach the interview,

886
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: those types of things, because then I think it does

887
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,720
Speaker 1: change a little bit because their their audience is insane.

888
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 2: Okay, and those guys, they are good dudes.

889
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 4: And then I would say, just like interviews.

890
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 5: Interviews, just being the well, like I would say, you

891
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 5: heard of him, Okay, armchair quarterback, he's our armchair expert.

892
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 5: He's really good man who I found myself listening to

893
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 5: a lot. I mean, THEO there.

894
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 4: So funny.

895
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,319
Speaker 2: And I feel like he's developed over time too.

896
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 5: He's a lot more comedy in the start, because obviously

897
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 5: he's a comedian. But I feel like he's starting to

898
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 5: get he's starting to create a range and a variety

899
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 5: for himself where he's handling himself well in all these conversations.

900
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,360
Speaker 4: I like that is he like in Atlanta.

901
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 2: He's in nae ye, Nashville. I think he's put between

902
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 2: the Nashville maybe l A. I'm not sure. Yeah, he

903
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 2: do Nashville. He was doing the pod with the shop

904
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 2: right for a minute.

905
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, ye, but yeah, that's a solid three. You got

906
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:39,919
Speaker 5: Rogan and Armchair Expert back Shepherd. I've never seen armer

907
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:41,360

908
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 2: What's another? What's to think? Because Shoals has a really

909
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 2: good one. Yeah, yeah, but.

910
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 1: I've seen I've seen his clips. I've never really watched

911
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 1: the show. I think he's really good.

912
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,399
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's hard, I know there's something. Yeah, I don't

913
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 5: digest a whole lot. I mean, and that's based on

914
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 5: like what I listen to, Like we can't we can't

915
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:03,839

Speaker 1: Poppy too.

924
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, they don't see and being at the

925
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 5: top for as long as as long as they have

926
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 5: each other having the same sense of humor, like they

927
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:28,640

00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:52,359

934
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 1: I wish I had a list to look at. So

935
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:08,440
Speaker 1: I'm trying to go through. Okay, Matthews, I think Seattle.

936
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 2: That's West.

937
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,239

939
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 1: I think who's hot, Tunsil, Houston is Tunsil, He's nasty.

940
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 2: Who's saints? They got nobody? Well, no, respective, I'm just

941
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 2: trying to think of names. Yeah, let me do I'll do.

942
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:43,760
Speaker 1: Trent Tunsil. Let me get Dean Dawkins for three. Honorable

943
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,759
Speaker 1: mention to our boy, Jake Matthews. I still hold a

944
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: lot of animosity towards him.

945
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 2: Lass Room.

946
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:54,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, we were sitting like in a room outside of

947
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 1: Radio City and we kind of like started talking because

948
00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: we were both doing the you know, top tackles in

949
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 1: the drive, kind of sizing each other up a little bit,

950
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 1: but like being respectful the same guy. I'm kind of

951
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: both doing the uncomfortable thing together. And so I was like, Hey,

952
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 1: where do you want to go? And he's like, honestly

953
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 1: kind of looks around as if somebod's actually listening to

954
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: us for tackles. He's like, Atlanta would be sick. I

955
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 1: was like, dude, same. And then that Monday before the draft,

956
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 1: Atlanta flew to me and they're like, if you're there

957
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 1: at six, be ready, and I'm like, I'll be there.

958
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 1: I will be there around six. Comes around and I'm

959
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: like fired up, and the phone starts ringing on Jake

960
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 1: Matthew's table and he's like two tables away from me too,

961
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,359
Speaker 1: and his family started celebrating. I was so fucking mad.

962
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 1: I was so tight because that's where I wanted to go.

963
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 1: I was like, al sick flower Branch. I came down here,

964
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: checked it out. Arthur Blank was kind of dope too.

965
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,800
Speaker 1: Seems like a couple of guys not himself personally. I

966
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 1: made the re correct phone calls to get things done,

967
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:47,359
Speaker 1: and I respect that if you're able to get away

968
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: with that, and so for me, I was like, yeah,

969
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: I'd be kind of sick. And then Titans called me

970
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:52,960
Speaker 1: and I was mad about that because they had two tackles.

971
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 2: I was mad as about it.

972
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 4: Wait, so you're with Arthur Smith.

973
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's that's our guy. He was one of

974
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 2: the boys.

975
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:01,080
Speaker 5: Man.

976
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,440
Speaker 2: He was a control guy when I first got there.

977
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, we would do these pursuit drills where they like

978
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,319
Speaker 1: hold up balls in the corner of the end zones

979
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 1: and we would just run and try to punch the

980
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 1: ball out and I would literally beat the ship up.

981
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 2: I would run about, tackling the ground, start punching the ball.

982
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 3: Brother. Think I love about him though. It's like, yeah,

983
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,720
Speaker 3: obviously he's a great coach and like we built the relationship.

984
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 3: But like, bro, his dark comedy hilarious like like if

00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:33,359
Speaker 3: something like that. Bro, you can't handle like coach Smith

987
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:39,279
Speaker 3: because like he'll joke with you and it's hilarious. Quick, quick,

988
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 3: it's hilarious.

989
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:40,239
Speaker 4: Bro.

990
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 2: Like he's got good group chat humor as well.

Speaker 3: He does he does oh my gosh, like he put

992
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 3: he put us in a group chat some of us

993
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 3: off the players and just send the most like crazy things.

994
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 4: But like it was so funny.

Speaker 1: Bro, I love that You've just added one more though.

1000
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 1: Top three coaches you've ever had?

1001
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 4: Top three coaches?

1002
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,360
Speaker 1: This is this has been a fun transition, I guess, yeah.

1003
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:16,839
Speaker 4: Like ever in my life.

1004
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:21,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, well number one, I'm gonna have to

1005
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,359
Speaker 3: go with my high school coach, coach Benet. Then it's Bene.

1006
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:29,960
Speaker 3: He's kind of like Coach Smith just off like like

1007
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:33,000
Speaker 3: he's very he's like the greatest coach in Arizona history,

1008
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 3: high school coach Charlie Rag.

1009
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:40,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, go ahead, all right, just arguing about whatever.

1010
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 3: But you know, even even just him like developed being

1011
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 3: like helped develop me and me to become like a

1012
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:49,759
Speaker 3: respectable man and just like be a great kid.

1013
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 4: He was that guy.

1014
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 3: Uh. But then number two, I'm gonna have to go ahead,

1015
00:46:57,040 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 3: Coach Choice to Shark Choice. He was my coach at Texas,

1016
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,960
Speaker 3: running back coach in Texas. I mean, like his energy

1017
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 3: is like awesome, Like I mean, he brought about it

1018
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 3: every day every day and then watch I bet, I

1019
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 3: bet at the end of all this, like Rahim is

1020
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 3: gonna be my number one. But I'm gonna say he's

1021
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,440
Speaker 3: already like Danner up there, bro, like Rahiem is fun

1022
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 3: for a month and he's already like that guy. I

1023
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:31,560
Speaker 3: mean just his presence and like obviously like he's gonna

1024
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 3: coach you like and get everything out of you, but

1025
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 3: he's gonna do it with you like you be seeing

1026
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,359
Speaker 3: him on the field like in drills, like in the drill,

1027
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 3: and I'm like, I just never had a coach like

1028
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:46,840
Speaker 3: that before. And then even my coach Petriot, he's I

1029
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 3: guess he'd be like my number three and he's my

1030
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 3: running back coach now and like my dog for life,

1031
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:53,880
Speaker 3: that no doubt.

1032
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:55,800
Speaker 2: I hear. I gotta I have a question.

1033
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,880
Speaker 5: People would assume that a cat like yourself, five star recruit,

1034
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 5: best you know, drafted top ten, you're the man even

1035
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 5: currently that somebody like you wouldn't have faced a lot

1036
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,280
Speaker 5: of adversity. What are one of the more trying times

1037
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 5: you've had in your career as a football player.

1038
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, while I faced like I saw.

1039
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,440
Speaker 3: For me, I think I faced a lot of adversity

1040
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 3: just going to Texas and not having a winning team.

1041
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,840
Speaker 4: Like when we would lose, like a lot of.

1042
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 3: It would be on me and you know, like we

1043
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 3: would go eight and five and then it would be

1044
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 3: like nine to four or something like that, like that's

1045
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 3: a bad season, like Texas and for me being like

1046
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,240
Speaker 3: the leader of the team, like who people watch.

1047
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:49,879
Speaker 2: Like you know it was had the guy?

1048
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was.

1049
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 3: It was hard, like and sometimes I would catch myself

1050
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 3: like going to Twitter and seeing what people would say

1051
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:57,760
Speaker 3: and type.

1052
00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 2: In your name's all been there? You shouldn't you know,

1053
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:01,720
Speaker 2: you shouldn't.

1054
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:03,440
Speaker 3: I'm like I should not be doing this, but like

1055
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 3: and I'm glad I did it then because obviously I

1056
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 3: tripled out and now I don't care like care people think,

1057
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,360
Speaker 3: but like then it was like, all right, what's happening?

1058
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 4: Like what did I do? What's the small mess up

1059
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:18,239
Speaker 4: that I did to make.

1060
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 2: This kind of had a nice game with people?

1061
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I had a nice game, But I still

1062
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 3: want to see, like what's it? So it's like all

1063
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,160
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff was was a learning lesson for me,

1064
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 3: But it would be like more adversity of like trying

1065
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 3: to get teammates on the same page as you, and

1066
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:43,280
Speaker 3: sometimes like teammates went to went to the school because

1067
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 3: of just the name, like they weren't invested in in

1068
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 3: the in the in the play, like they just wanted

1069
00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:52,000
Speaker 3: because they want to go to frat parties and say

1070
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 3: I'm a football player, like that's all. And I was like,

1071
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 3: that's cool, but I don't think you're really getting none

1072
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 3: out of it by doing that, Like why don't you

1073
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:02,480
Speaker 3: want to be a great player?

1074
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:03,800
Speaker 4: Didn't do it?

1075
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:06,400
Speaker 2: Like I just didn't know where where the where their

1076
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 2: minds were up. Yeah, they're messed up.

1077
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:13,600
Speaker 3: And then even you know even here, like man, this

1078
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 3: team is is so tight, that we're so close, and

1079
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 3: like just some of those heartbreaking like losses from last year,

1080
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 3: like it was it was, you know, really hard because obviously,

1081
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:25,759
Speaker 3: like those are the ones that you want and those

1082
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 3: are the wins that you want. But you know, with

1083
00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 3: the NFL, like we we would put ourselves in in

1084
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 3: some situations where it was just hard to come out

1085
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,800
Speaker 3: of from from some of those games, and then it

1086
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 3: would end up in a two point loss, three point loss,

1087
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,759
Speaker 3: and it's just like we know, if we won that game,

1088
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 3: like we would be like easily in the playoffs. But

1089
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:48,319
Speaker 3: it's like those little things that I had to learn

1090
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 3: from and come over because I think, you know, God

1091
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 3: plans everything. You know, you have a setback for huge
