1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: And now move the sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. 2 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,240 Speaker 1: What's up, everybody? Welcome to move the sticks. 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:09,719 Speaker 2: DJ. 4 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,399 Speaker 1: Bucky with you on a Friday, Buck. How are you doing? 5 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,320 Speaker 2: Man? Man doing great? DJ? 6 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,599 Speaker 3: I got a big football weekend ahead. We got these 7 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 3: college games that are coming up. You know, the NFL 8 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 3: is in full swing. And what I love about this 9 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 3: part of the year when it comes to the NFL 10 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 3: man down the stretch. This is when the stars begin 11 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 3: to shine. But also when some of those unherlded rookies, 12 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,839 Speaker 3: rookies that we talked about, they begin to play prominent, 13 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 3: prominent roles because injuries have put them into action and 14 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 3: they got to make players or the team won't win. 15 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: I've never asked you this question, but I'm curious. I've 16 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,239 Speaker 1: been around teams. I feel like I've seen this, but 17 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 1: I've not known it for sure. But someone who's been 18 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 1: inside the locker room. You know, you talk about this 19 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: being a long season. We use that phrase all the time. 20 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: Veteran guys. You see, did you scent some of those 21 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: guys that had kind of paced themselves and then now 22 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: you got to this time of the year, and now 23 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,959 Speaker 1: it's like Okay, this is the push. You could kind 24 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,400 Speaker 1: of feel like, Okay, now they're raising it up a 25 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: little bit in terms of everything. 26 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 27 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 3: No, it's funny becausere are a few different ways that 28 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 3: those veterans kind of get it going right. You'll see 29 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 3: the teams try and preserve those players. You'll see them 30 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 3: take days off of practice. They won't work maybe on 31 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 3: Wednesdays and Thursdays. They'll kind of show up on Fridays 32 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 3: and Saturdays and kind of get their work in and 33 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 3: then go play. You'll see them take little leeways when 34 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 3: it comes to Like I remember Marcus Allen, the Hall 35 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 3: of Fame of Marcus Allen. 36 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: We played together in Kansas City, DJ. 37 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 3: He practiced in these old school turf shoes that were 38 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 3: I mean they're basically basketball shoes but on grap and 39 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 3: so he's like, hey man, I had these easy walkers. 40 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 3: Can't have my feet in these seven stuffs wearing my dogs. 41 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 3: I gotta I need them. 42 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: For later on. And it was such a classic Vet move. 43 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, they paced themselves, and the thing about it 44 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 3: and they always cast the young guys. Hey man, it's 45 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 3: a marathon, not a sprint. You got to understand how 46 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 3: to take care of your body. You got to understand 47 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 3: like how to practice, You got to understand how to prepare, 48 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 3: how to work out in the weight room and do 49 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: those things. Because now you're getting down to the make 50 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,399 Speaker 3: the money time, because everyone loves going to the postseason, 51 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 3: because postseason not only chance to chase the ring, has 52 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 3: some extra money, some extra cheese in your pocket. 53 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 2: So everyone is trying to go after it. Yeah. 54 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: I almost wonder though, if you look at some of 55 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: these teams that are right writing, some of these rookies. 56 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: Houston as a team that comes to mind, not just 57 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: obviously the quarterback in CJ. Stroud, but Dell when you 58 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: think about defensive side of the ball, I mean, they've 59 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: got that's a lot of young guys playing that. The 60 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers are playing a lot of rookies. Seattle's 61 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: been relying on a lot of rookies. You know, the 62 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: proverbial rookie wall is a thing, man, I believe in that. 63 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: I've seen that in your history, having gone through it 64 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: as a rookie, Buck, was there a moment where you 65 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 1: were like, dang man, we still got four or five 66 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: six more games to go here? 67 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: Well, think of it this way. 68 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 3: DJ I've always told young players, this is the first season. 69 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 3: The rookie season is the longest season that you have 70 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 3: of your career. Let's go all the way back. So 71 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 3: you finish your college season January. You now got to 72 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 3: get ready for the All Star Games. You gotta get 73 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 3: ready for the Combine. You then got to go from 74 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 3: training from Combine to Pro Days to now, oh I 75 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 3: get drafted. I got to go ready for my first 76 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 3: mini camp, workout off season, and now get in the 77 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 3: training camp all the way through. 78 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 2: When is the break for the young guys? 79 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 3: See veterans that have a little bit of their offseason 80 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 3: to kind of chill, But there's been no chill for 81 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 3: the rookies. 82 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 2: So it's go, go, go, go go. 83 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 3: At some point the wall is gonna hit. And so 84 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 3: all these teams that are playing all these rookies, you 85 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 3: do wonder down the stretch when those older teams are 86 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 3: ratchet it up, they're turning up the intensity and the volume. 87 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: Do the young guys have the capacity to give you 88 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 3: just a little more? Can you squeeze a little more 89 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 3: out of them? Are they completely tap down in gas? 90 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 3: Be a huge difference. It could be decided in fact, 91 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 3: and which teams make the tournament, which teams are on 92 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: the outside looking in. 93 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: Man, we'll be keeping an eye on that. The rookies. 94 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: You think sometimes young fresh legs, that's a good thing. 95 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: But you said, they've just gone through an exhaustive process 96 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: in the last calendar years. There's been no break. So 97 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see how those guys make it through 98 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: the rookie wall here in the next few weeks. Buck, 99 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: We're going to hit on the coach's corner here in 100 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: a little bit, which the word for today is creativity. 101 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: We'll get to that in just a few moments, but 102 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: I want to start out today. We haven't talked a 103 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: ton of college football lately. We've got an interesting slate here. 104 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: It's the last regular season game and we've got some 105 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: huge contests here that have, you know, playoff implications. When 106 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,239 Speaker 1: you look at Oregon Oregon State, that is eleven versus six, 107 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: Florida State Florida, even though Florida's down, Florida State's now 108 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: down a quarterback. You've got Washington Washington State. You think 109 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: Washington that's you know they're going to be in the 110 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: in the Pac twelve Championship game. They're two wins away 111 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: from finding their way into the tournament here into the 112 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: final four, but the big one and where I'd like 113 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: to focus here at Ohio State and Michigan. It's always 114 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: big and now this thing is slanted towards Michigan. Now 115 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 1: you've got with all the Harball and the signe stealings, 116 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: Harball is not going to be in the mix. There's 117 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: all this talk swirling around that, wow, when this all 118 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 1: gets out and in the open, that Harball could be 119 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: suspended for all of next year. Not only do I 120 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: think Michigan is a little better than Ohio State, buck, 121 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: I think that in some ways all this stuff is 122 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: going to work to their advantage of the kind of 123 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: us against the world. Whether you know you agree on 124 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: the severity of what they did, it is it is. 125 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: It is Michigan versus the world. That's that's a fact, Yeah, 126 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 1: Michigan versus the world. 127 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 3: Here, here's the thing, a game where the pressure was 128 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 3: already on Ohio State coming in, there's even more pressure now. 129 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: So now how do you lose this? They don't have 130 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: they don't have Harball over there. How are you gonna lose? 131 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 3: So, now if Harball is down on the sideline and 132 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 3: you lose to them. I mean that egg on your face. 133 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 3: And what I wonder and I'm looking to see how 134 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: Ryan Day does this? How does he take that pressure 135 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 3: off the players, because we all know if players are 136 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 3: super emotional, if they kind of play with the weight 137 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 3: of the world on their shoulders, they're not going to 138 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 3: play at their best. Can he dial it back and 139 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 3: kind of make it I won't see a light week, 140 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 3: but can he make it a lighter week on them 141 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 3: mentally so they can show up ready to play. 142 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 2: The robbery is already the robbery. It was already intense. 143 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 3: It was already the only thing that people of these 144 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 3: two respective fan bases talk about three hundred and sixty 145 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 3: five days a year. But now it is it is 146 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 3: on and popping. You got that smudge of scandals. 147 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 2: And all that other stuff. 148 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 3: To the fact Jim Harbor wouldn't even answer the question 149 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 3: about whether he has respect for Ryan Day in their 150 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 3: higher state programs. You know, it's we're so entrenched in 151 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: preparing I can't even think about what's on the other side. 152 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 3: Me DJ that that says everything. I will say this though, 153 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 3: about Jim Harbrough and Michigan, because I know there's been 154 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 3: a lot of speculation about him maybe going to the 155 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 3: NFL and them doing it. 156 00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 2: I love what he's done in Michigan. 157 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 3: I think college football is better when he's at Michigan 158 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 3: because everyone needs a villain. 159 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: Right now, they're the villain. Yeah, they're a villain. 160 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 3: People don't like them, but the way that they play, 161 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 3: the way they go on the road, the way they've 162 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 3: been galvanized by the stuff that's taking place like the 163 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 3: last couple of years, this is a really good team. 164 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 3: It's a thorough blue blood program. There's just something about 165 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 3: them that you admire. And that's no disrespect to o 166 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 3: Hire staying in some of the other programs. But man, 167 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 3: they try to make themselves or remake themselves into the 168 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 3: big boys. But they can have a seat at the 169 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 3: table with Georgia and Alabama and those teams. 170 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 2: When you watch them play, they play like that. 171 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 3: But now can they play like that without harbought in 172 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 3: the building. 173 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 2: That's what everyone wants to see. 174 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 3: Can they get it done against Ohio State without pig 175 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 3: Jim Harboro on the sideline? 176 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, because everybody said, let's fast forward. 177 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: If Harball you gets suspended, he gets spended for a year. 178 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: Everybody's saying he'll go running to the NFL. Well, first 179 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: of all, that's assuming that somebody wants to hire him, 180 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: can't go if they're not there. And everybody's just kind 181 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: of assuming that would be it for him at Michigan. 182 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: And I'm sitting here going like, wait a second, hold up. 183 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: I saw Sean Payton gets suspended for a year with 184 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: the Saints and they're like, well, we're not going to 185 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: hire a coach better than Sean Payton. Well we'll wait 186 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: it out like this, Go take your year off and we'll. 187 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 2: Be right back. 188 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: But Buck, it would make the kind of the legend 189 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: of Jim Harbaugh and Michigan like he would never be 190 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: he'd be more popular than he's ever been if he's 191 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: stuck around there for a year and then came back. 192 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it would be like the return of a king. 193 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: I mean not saying that's the right thing or the 194 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: wrong thing. I'll tell you that's a fact. That's what 195 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: it would be. 196 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 3: Well, my thing would be if I if I'm him 197 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 3: and them, we saw what it looked like before he 198 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 3: got there, Yes, be sure, we want to see what 199 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 3: it looks like after he departs like they have been 200 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 3: a dominant team to pass three season. If you think 201 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 3: that it was just solely attributed to the signs stilling 202 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 3: thing cool, But I know when I watched him, they 203 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 3: got NFL players, Man, they got NFL players. He got 204 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 3: it pop in there, they have it rolling, they beat 205 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 3: you up. They play a style that's conducive to being 206 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 3: able to play against the Georgia's in the Alabamas. 207 00:08:58,760 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 208 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be so quick to move off of him 209 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 3: permanently unless he's like, oh I'm out. There's something to 210 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: be said for what it looks like. And let's go 211 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 3: back to his previous school, Stanford. They were able to 212 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 3: hold it together for a long time without him, but 213 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 3: each and every year it changed the farther he was 214 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 3: away from the program. I think I would I would 215 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 3: take a lesson from that. Yeah, you can win initially, 216 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 3: but man, for staying power long term success, I think 217 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 3: you have to have the Michigan man there. I would 218 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 3: I was what you said about Sean Payton. I would 219 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 3: make that move. I would say, hey, man, like we 220 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 3: get it. Take a year ago a lot of world, 221 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 3: go do whatever you want to do, but in a 222 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,719 Speaker 3: year this is still yours. 223 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: I mean, would you be surprised they gave him a contract? 224 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's funny to think of, but like, hey, 225 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: you got suspend it for a year. Well, just hey, 226 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 1: don't please take your time. We'll give you a new contract, 227 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 1: ten year contract. You come back in a year, we'll 228 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: pick up right where we left off. But in the meantime, 229 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: your for your troubles, for your vacation. Here's a little extra. 230 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 3: For you extra And that offensive line coach Sharon Moore, 231 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 3: who's taken over man you talk about I just love 232 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,199 Speaker 3: the loyalty and the stuff. How he expressed the gratitude 233 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 3: and the appreciation for Jim Harbaugh. Hey man, this is 234 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 3: yours for a year. Like take this run it. We're 235 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 3: gonna be fine. You're doing great with it. And if 236 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 3: this sets you up for when you do eventually take 237 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 3: it over, you'd be good to go. There's just so 238 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 3: many things that would dissuade me from moving on from him, 239 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 3: despite public pressure. 240 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 2: I don't care. It's Michigan versus everything, you know, Michigan 241 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 2: versus everyone. 242 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: I don't think any of their fans would be in 243 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 1: a hurry to get him out of there. I think 244 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: the fans would be sitting there going like, do whatever 245 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: you got to do, We'll wait a year, Come on back. 246 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, was the last time back to back 247 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 3: Big Ten titles they've been in a college football playoff? 248 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 3: They are, People are talking about it, they're recruiting details off. 249 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 2: Why would you want to move off for that? 250 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: No, no, I'm with you. That'll be interesting. Looking forward 251 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: to that game again, a great slate of games, looking 252 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: forward to the college football weekend. All right, we're gona 253 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: take quick break. We come back. It's Bucky's Coaches Corner're 254 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: gona talk about some creativity next. All right, bock this week. 255 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: We love doing this each and every week Bucky's Coach's Corner. 256 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: We like to take a term, a theme and elaborate 257 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: on a little bit. Today the word of choice is creativity. 258 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, creativity is interesting because this is the fine line 259 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 3: that every coach has to kind of dance with. 260 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 2: How creative do we want to be versus being complex 261 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 2: and complicated. You want to be creative where things are fun, 262 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 2: where you're giving your team new and exciting things. You 263 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 2: want to be kind of on the cutting edge of innovation, 264 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 2: But you don't want to confuse them where it bogs 265 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: them down. And I think a lot of us, in 266 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 2: terms of our creativity, sometimes we're afraid to fully tap 267 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 2: into it because we don't want to know what filure 268 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 2: looks like when we're attempting to kind of push the 269 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 2: envelope or go across that line. When I think about 270 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 2: some of the best teams and coaches at coaches who 271 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: were not afraid to kind of have a blank canvas 272 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 2: and kind of painting the picture the way that they 273 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 2: want it. The great ones are always willing to kind 274 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 2: of go to the line and beyond the line to 275 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 2: see how far they can push it, how great they 276 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 2: can great, How how can they lead and lift their 277 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 2: programs up? And so creativity goes a long way in 278 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: that keeping it creative, trying to keep things new, trying 279 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 2: to be innovative, to keep your players engaged, while also 280 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: sticking to the core principles that you have that have 281 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 2: made a program successful. 282 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would would hear that 283 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: and say, Okay, are they at odds? Is like routine 284 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: and discipline at odds with creativity mmm, Because you sit 285 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: there and say, okay, well you got to have your 286 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: you got to have your values. You got to have 287 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: your beliefs, you got to have you know, we always 288 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: talk about the menu, right if you're putting in an 289 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: offense or defense, we want. We were more fans of 290 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: the in and out menu versus the you know, the 291 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: cheesecake factory. Yeah, there you go, that menu. So it's 292 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: having a core group of things you do really well. 293 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: But I think of to me when I think of 294 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: discipline and and you know, not what we've seen this year, 295 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: but over the course of Bill Belichick's run in New England, 296 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: you would if you're going to say, you know, a routine, discipline, 297 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 1: buttoned up outfit, that would be the example. But I 298 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: can't remember seeing double passes with Julian Edelman. I can 299 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: remember seeing some trick plays here and there. I remember 300 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: seeing game plans defensively get totally shaken up and them 301 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: doing stuff they'd never done before. Go back, and you know, 302 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: watch their Super Bowl against Sean McVay, how they changed 303 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: up their defense in that game. I think they've married 304 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: that pretty well with the discipline and the creativity. 305 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 3: It's funny because a few weeks ago we had Mike 306 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 3: norval On and Florida State coach was talking about a 307 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 3: bunch of things. But I happened to see a clinic 308 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 3: that he was leading and he talked about creativity and 309 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 3: he used two words he said same as So the 310 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 3: creativity comes as we talk about conceptual learning. So there's 311 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,559 Speaker 3: a concept that we like, Well, how many different ways 312 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 3: can we get to this same concept while mixing formations, 313 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 3: mixing personnel groupings. But it's the same as this concept 314 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 3: for the quarterback, but it's for everybody else around it. 315 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 3: I think the key to being creative is trying to 316 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 3: find that that link between this is what we always do, 317 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 3: we just getting to it a little differently. I'm around 318 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 3: Doug Peterson each and every week with the Jacksonville Jaguars, 319 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 3: but I go back to the work that he did 320 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 3: with the Philadelphia Eagles and helping Nick Foles play at 321 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 3: a super Bowl level. He did they ran the same concept. 322 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 3: It was the mess shell across a million different ways, 323 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 3: but every week they just changed the look. To me, 324 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 3: the creativity is not the amount of plays or the 325 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 3: different things that you do, is how many different ways 326 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 3: can we do the same thing, but just change the 327 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 3: picture for what the opposition is looking. 328 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: How about for learning coach in high school, your teacher, 329 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: you're teaching these guys. Is there creativity in the learning part? 330 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: Let's go like off the field install helping these guys 331 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: learn an offense or a defense or scheme. Is there 332 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: a creative way to do that. 333 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 3: I think there's a very creative way to do it. 334 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 3: And I think I've been blessed to be around a 335 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 3: bunch of great teachers, like real high school, middle school, 336 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 3: elementary teachers that kind of help me along the way, 337 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 3: and they're always like, hey, man, it's no different than 338 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 3: when you have kids and your kids are going from 339 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 3: crawling to walking to running. And so DJ I believe 340 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 3: this is applicable when it comes to dealing with pro athletes. 341 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 2: Okay, so first you show it on the board, then 342 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: you show it on tape, and then you go outside 343 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 2: and then you walk through it, and then you run 344 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 2: it on bags, and then you run it again against 345 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 2: live bodies. You have to be creative and adaptive to 346 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: the people that you inherit and that you're teaching. You 347 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 2: have to know where there are and where they're at 348 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 2: and how they need to get the message. So some 349 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 2: years you can do it like hey, I'm gonna tell 350 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 2: you what to do and you guys can go do it. 351 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 2: But other years it's hey, let's walk through it. 352 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 3: Let's walk through it with bags, let's walk through it 353 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 3: with people, let's do it has speed, threequord speed, full speed? 354 00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 3: How many different ways can I show you this until 355 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 3: it finally clicks and you get it? A lot of 356 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 3: what coaching is is being creative to see if you 357 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 3: can meet the kids where they are. That has been 358 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 3: I think the biggest challenge in terms of coaching high 359 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 3: school ball and coaching U sports is trying to take 360 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 3: all this stuff that you may have in your head, 361 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 3: all the complex things that you have in the head, 362 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 3: the stuff you've been exposed to, and trying to whittle 363 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 3: it down to the essence of here are the main 364 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 3: things that you need to know when it comes to this, 365 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 3: I'll try and make it as simple as I can 366 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 3: for you, and so I'm gonna be creative and teaching 367 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 3: it to you so that you can get it. 368 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: One of the things I saw the other day. I 369 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: don't know if you came across us. We have talked 370 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: on here. We talked about it. Gosh, five six years 371 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: ago we talked about virtual reality and how you can 372 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: use that to help in the learning process. Quarterbacks done it. 373 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: They did at Stanford. I think that's actually where it started. 374 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: But at LSU there was a thing on Jayden Daniel's 375 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: little story on him, and it showed I think it 376 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: was Marucci, Jack Mrucci, who's been there at LSU's interesting guy. 377 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: I mean, he's launched the Bat Company, Baseball Bats, baseball bats, 378 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: but he's been he's been on that LSU program forever 379 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: and he I think was key and getting this instituted there. 380 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: But talked about how since jayde Danielis has been using that, 381 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: how much that's helped him. Because you're just getting you 382 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 1: talk about mental reps. Oh, mental reps. Okay, close your eyes, 383 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: you know, put the goggles on. You can get you 384 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: can get. You can sit at home and get hundreds 385 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: and hundreds of reps versus the same plays versus different coverages, 386 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: and where your eyes go, what you see. 387 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 2: You know. 388 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: To me, we've talked about that for a long time 389 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: and I think that people dabbling it a little bit 390 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: here and there, but I've yet to hear somebody say, 391 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: you know, and I did that, it didn't really help, 392 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: you know, it wasn't very helpful. That's another example being creative, no, 393 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:43,360 Speaker 1: being creative. 394 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 2: I was lucky. 395 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,120 Speaker 3: When I was in college there was a sports psychologist 396 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 3: around our program called doctor Richard Coop, and the night 397 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 3: before games on Friday nights we were playing on Saturdays, 398 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 3: he was cittizen in the room. 399 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 2: He would sit a handful of us. I was always 400 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 2: in there with the kickers and. 401 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 3: Punters, and we would go through visualization, right, and so 402 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 3: it's all right. 403 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 2: He was kind of like Lowyer to sleep. But then 404 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,479 Speaker 2: you would visualize how the game would play out. 405 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 3: And DJ I can't tell you how many days y'all 406 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 3: boom moments you have on the field when you kind 407 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 3: of go through that process. And I just remember being 408 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 3: exposed to that stuff at an early age. My dad 409 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: was a big believer in, like, hey, man, play the 410 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 3: game in your head before you actually play the game. 411 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 3: But it actually slowed down and those things and the virtual 412 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 3: reality stuff is just that on ten. It has allowed 413 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 3: players to play the game in their mind without having 414 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 3: to go through the physical rigors. But your mind can't 415 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 3: tell what's real or imagic, and so the reps are ingrained. 416 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 2: It still matters. 417 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 3: You still develop those skills from going through it. It's 418 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 3: something that you would think more people, more teams, more players, 419 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 3: would take advantage of. Because when I look at what 420 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 3: Jaden Daniel's done, there's no doubt he is a much 421 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 3: better and a much different player than he was at 422 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 3: Arizona State. 423 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 2: He's a night and day difference. Brian Kelly. 424 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 3: All the other stuff that they've done as LSU has 425 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 3: certainly helped him become I would say, a very viable prospect, 426 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 3: quarterback prospect for a team looking for a leader. 427 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 1: Then probably gonna win the Heisman Trophy the way he's 428 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: been going here too. Add that to his mantle. But 429 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: I always I've told this story before, but in terms 430 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: of creativity teaching, coaching, I go back to when I 431 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: was a freshman, a red shirt freshman at Northeast Louisiana. 432 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: Our coach was Ed Zombreaker, who'd been around for a 433 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: long time, been the coordinator at the LSU. I believe 434 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: at Florida before that was was it? Where else was? 435 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 2: Yeah? 436 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: I think it was at Purdue. But he would take 437 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks the day before the game and we would 438 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 1: walk onto the field. So say there's five of us. Yeah, 439 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: remember we've told you this we started the We start 440 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 1: the goal line and say, okay, we've just been pinned deep. 441 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 1: We got the ball at our two yard line. What's 442 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: our thought process here? It's a first down. We just 443 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: want to get one first down. Want to give our 444 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 1: punter room. We're gonna be safe with the football. We're 445 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: not gonna you know, we're gonna take what's there, probably 446 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 1: gonna you know, if we throw the ball, probably gonna 447 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: be in the flat. It's gonna be safe to the outside. 448 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 1: Safe throws one first down. That's what we're thinking. Okay, 449 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: let's move on. Okay, we're at twenty. This might be 450 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 1: where we start the game. First drive of the game. 451 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: You know, here's the play here's our play sheet. What 452 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna start off with. Boom boom boom, boom boom. 453 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: Then we get to midfield. Okay, we're at midfield. We 454 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: just got a turnover. We're at midfield. We're gonna take 455 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: shots here. These are the three plays we like. Which 456 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,239 Speaker 1: one do you guys like the best? You know, if 457 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: you're the starting quarterback, we get to make that call. 458 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 1: I prefer this one, this one, then that one. Okay, 459 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: we got them in that order. We're gonna take this 460 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: shot here, and we would march all way down the field. Hey, 461 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: we're in field goal range, no turnovers, we're safe with 462 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: the football. We've got three points, you know, Da da 463 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 1: da da da. I mean it was just and then 464 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: you'd find yourself in the game and you're like, okay, yeah, no, 465 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 1: I've already kind of gone through all this, and just 466 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 1: walking the field instead of just saying it in the classroom, 467 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: it made it sink in. 468 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 2: DJ I'm gonna give you a little secret sauce. Right. 469 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 2: So I've told you before. 470 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 3: That I coached a varsity team, but I also coached 471 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 3: the JV team. So the JV plays right before the varsity. 472 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 3: So I've always coached both units. I have guys that 473 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 3: work with me. They do a lot of the heavy lifting. 474 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 3: But there was a time where I would call it 475 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 3: the offense for the JV and the offense for the varsity. 476 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 3: One of the things that we've always done with the 477 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 3: JV team is, like you know that we practice at 478 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,959 Speaker 3: six am before school, But one of the things that 479 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 3: we've done with the JV program is they. 480 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,360 Speaker 2: Go money through Thursday. The JV is on one side, 481 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 2: varsity on the other, but on Fridays. 482 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 3: It's kind of like the special little walkthrough practice with 483 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 3: me and the JV team and what we do in 484 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 3: the morning DJ where a lot of people go through 485 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 3: a walk through. 486 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 2: We basically have like a real practice at six am 487 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 2: the day of a game. 488 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 3: And that practice not only encompasses like hey, we'll tackle, 489 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 3: we'll do all the other stuff. Now we're not in 490 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 3: pass but we'll go through it, but we'll go through 491 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 3: the entire warm up, like how we're gonna do pregame 492 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 3: warm up, how we're gonna shake hands at the end 493 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 3: of game, how we gonna take a picture at the 494 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 3: end of the game. And so when you are talking 495 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 3: me through that scenario where your coach would take you. 496 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 2: One by one by. 497 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 3: Like down the field and kind of walk through situations 498 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 3: or whatever, there's a scene where people say the game 499 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,479 Speaker 3: is over, coach, but undertaught. What your coach did is 500 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 3: he taught you in a creative fashion how to play 501 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 3: the game. And I remember I'm taking notes here about that, like, 502 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 3: oh man, that's a that's a that's a tactic that 503 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 3: we can use. We can walk to the team through 504 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 3: these scenarios and make sure that everyone is on board. 505 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 3: Because the practice is really a dress rehearsal for what 506 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 3: the game is going to be like. And the closer 507 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 3: you can bring that dress rehearsal to the game, the 508 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 3: more likely your teams are going to respond in the 509 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 3: fashion and the manner in which you want to respond. 510 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: No doubt. I mean again, you can expand up on 511 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 1: beyond the quarterbacks to the point where even like, hey, 512 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: you know this is you've got a fast kid on 513 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: your team, and hey, when we get to this part 514 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: of the field and this part of the game, this 515 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: is when you're coming in. You've got your you know, 516 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: your little package. We're going to use you here. But like, 517 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: just help those kids see it. They see it before 518 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: they do it. It makes it easier. 519 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 3: And the more you do it, man, the more comfortable 520 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 3: they get. And so when you get into games, you're 521 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 3: able to on. 522 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 2: This ode line. 523 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 3: Hey, guys, we talked about this, we did this in practice, 524 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 3: we talked about this morning, and we're just going to 525 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 3: do exactly what we did this morning. 526 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 2: What are we gonna do? Oh okay, coach, we did 527 00:22:58,080 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 2: all yep, here we go. Let's go, let's go run it. 528 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: That's what it is, no doubt, all right, that was 529 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 1: a good one today Bucky's Coach's Corner.
