I 33 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 2: think it's funny that everyone is so up at arms 34 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 2: when he puts it in your face, like you know 35 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 2: what I mean. It's just it's it's a little much, 36 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,199 Speaker 2: but it's, uh, it's kind of fun. So look, Lance, 37 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: So this is the first time you've been on on 38 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 2: a Friday. So today we're gonna do Bucky's Coaches Corner. 39 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 2: We'll talk about, uh, something that is nearing to my heart, 40 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: Like we pick a little topic and talk about that. 41 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: But then it's gonna be a good time for us 42 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 2: to kind of like empty of the notebook on some 43 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 2: of the performances and some of the rookies that are 44 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 2: standing standing out to you. So let's you know, let's 45 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 2: talk about that right. Now, let's talk about some of 46 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: the rookies that are standing out. So you being from 47 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 2: Houston representing Texas, and I know you think everything is 48 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: bigger in Texas. One of the best running backs that 49 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 2: we ever saw come out of Texas has b John Robinson. 50 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 2: Hey man, I start a dude in London and he 51 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 2: certainly didn't disappoint. He is as good as you can imagine, 52 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: even better than averagise. 53 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,239 Speaker 1: You know, when you try to come up with comparisons, 54 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: I struggled. I compared him to Josh Jacobs from a 55 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: standpoint of he's big, he's fast, he's physical, he can catch, 56 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: but that's not really he doesn't really capture it because 57 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: he's a very unique running back. Bucky. He is big, 58 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: but what he's he's got good size, but he's got 59 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: good running back size, right like two point fifteen about 60 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 1: five foot ten, you know, the six one six y 61 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: two you start getting into there's some problems there if 62 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: you get if you're too heavy, it's slow down your 63 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: lateral What Bjeon Robinson has is a low center of gravity, 64 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 1: so he's cut low, he's split low, and then he's 65 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: got a very low center of gravity and then he's 66 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: got a great lateral change of direction with really loose hips, 67 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: so his ability to do two different things, Like when 68 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: he gets up to the second level on you, he 69 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:22,959 Speaker 1: can elude you and maintain his top speed through his cuts, 70 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: which is extremely rare. Most people slow down and defenses 71 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: can rally with Bjeon Robinson. He can cut and go 72 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: so fast that it's one motion and he really doesn't 73 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: lose speed. But the thing that makes him special to 74 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: me is that when he gets up on you, you 75 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: have to make a decision. Now it's like a standing 76 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: in a batter's box and you don't know if it's 77 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: fastball change up because he's got that little side step 78 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: change up that he can wiggle you and make you 79 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: look bad. But I should say a curve ball really, 80 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: because he can buckle those knees and fake you to 81 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: the right and all of a sudden he's juking you 82 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: and you're on the ground, or he can come right 83 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: with the ninety nine mile an hour fastball down your 84 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: face mask. That's the other thing is he's got leverage 85 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: because he's built low to the ground, so he can 86 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: either finish through you or finish around you and That's 87 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: what makes him really really tough to me is that, 88 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: yes he's multi dimensional. Yes he can play in short yardage, 89 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: he can play out of the backfield, he can protect 90 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: the passer. But he can beat you with power and 91 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: yards after contact or with elusiveness. And most guys fall 92 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: into one category or the other. Is that rare guy 93 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: that can do both. 94 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 2: He is unique. The comparison that I had for him 95 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 2: was La Danny and Thomason. And the reason why is 96 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: because I thought I thought he had an opportunity to 97 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: do some of the stuff that else he did early 98 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 2: in the league where he had one hundred catches, went 99 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 2: for over a thousand yards as a rusher, a guy 100 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 2: that was really everything when I talked to the Falcons coaches. 101 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 2: I talked to him on the field before the Falcons 102 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: played the Jags, and he just talked about, man, they 103 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 2: dude catches the ball like a white House, Like you're 104 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 2: like Bucky legitimately catching the ball maybe better than some 105 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 2: of our white House in terms of his hand eye coalition. 106 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: He made a cat on his back, yeah, with one 107 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 1: hand and ran it into dan zone for a touchdown. 108 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: And then he had another one where he made a 109 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: one handed catch way out in front of him on 110 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: a swing pass like we saw those wide receiver hands 111 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: in that in that Texans game. 112 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: So he catches the ball and then look, man, I 113 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 2: didn't know that he had all that extra wiggle. He 114 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 2: has a one on one where he gets the ball 115 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: in space on Chad moment and he hits them with 116 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 2: a crossover and then brings it back. I mean he 117 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 2: rocked him like Alan iverson rock Michael Jordan at the 118 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 2: top of the key. It was unbelievable to watch what 119 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: he's able to do. And the thing about him Lance 120 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 2: is he not only has the shaking, bake and the 121 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 2: wiggle right because normally when a guy has that stuff, 122 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 2: they normally don't want to engage in those power type runs, 123 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 2: like they always want to dip and dap and get 124 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: in and out. But he'll drop his shoulder on you, 125 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: and to me, he is the new prototypical running back 126 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: to every offense must have. When you look at what 127 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey is doing for the forty nine ers, you 128 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: can envision b Jhon Robinson doing the same thing in 129 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 2: a Falcon's offense as it continues to evolve. I want 130 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 2: the running back that Hey, if we need to get downhill, 131 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 2: he can get down here. If we need to get 132 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 2: to the edges, he has the speed and equipments to 133 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 2: get to the edge and we need to use them 134 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 2: in the passing game, he can do all those things. 135 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 2: To me, he is kind of like the ultimate weapon 136 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: in the backfield. And I know we don't like taking 137 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 2: running backs high, but if you don't take one, it 138 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 2: better be one that has those kind of skill that 139 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 2: he displayed. 140 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: The Falcons don't care what you like. Is they'll take 141 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: a tight end high running back high like they'll do 142 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 1: things that are unconventional on But Bjon Robinson is a 143 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: guy that is I don't like to get too caught 144 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 1: up in the running back contract discussions because you know, 145 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 1: the market is the market. But you mentioned this guys 146 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: who can do both but also have I think the 147 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: right size and you have to be able to do 148 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: both now days if you want to be considered a 149 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: premiere back, because if not, then we'll just go with that. Okay, 150 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: we got our banger here, we got our we got 151 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: our juice guy here. We'll get a three down guy here. 152 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: You know, they'll just piece meal it together with the 153 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: old basketball team approach. But when you get a guy 154 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: who's special like Christian McCaffrey, when you get a guy 155 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: who like b Jean Robinson, you know that's that's just 156 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: that's different. That allows you to and I think it 157 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: also allows you to to take a lot of pressure 158 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: off your quarterbacks. Rock Perty is a better player with 159 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey in that backfield. That's not a slam on 160 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: rock Party. It's just an acknowledgement of how important a 161 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: quality running back is who gives you a safety net 162 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: and out of the backfield, but who also takes the 163 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: pressure off of you and puts pressure on the defense 164 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: so that the play action game can work a little 165 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: bit better. And desmel Rindards just came off of a 166 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: really good game. The Texans stopped the run against the Falcons. 167 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: Has been Ritter ended up having a big game. So 168 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: sometimes really good running backs, just them being on the 169 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: field has the impact that you're looking for for your offense. 170 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 2: And I think that's the thing, and I think that's 171 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 2: the thing that everyone has to understand. It's not necessarily 172 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 2: about the running back being the old school running back 173 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 2: that gets it twenty five to thirty Tunds. A game 174 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 2: is how does the defense react to the presence of 175 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 2: the running back in the back, whether it's him as 176 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 2: a runner, him as a receiver. Does that running back 177 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 2: have the ability to change the way that you have 178 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 2: to use your coverage, because if it does, it's worth 179 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: his weighting goal. But it also makes the game so 180 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 2: much easier for the quarterback. Let's talk about somebody else 181 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 2: who's making the game easy for the quarterback. How about 182 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 2: punkin the chul How do we miss him? What do 183 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 2: we miss on what do we miss on the b 184 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 2: while you stand out? 185 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: I had to go back and look at my scatter 186 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: report bucket, and I said, you know, I worried about 187 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: his ability to separate, if he could separate, But I 188 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: remember Darryl Drake, great wide receiver coach pour somehow for 189 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: Darryl Frak who passed away a couple of years ago. 190 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: But Daryl Drake once told me that a really good 191 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: quarterback can create separation for a wide receiver. In other words, 192 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: your wide receiver. If separation you think it's an issue 193 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: for him, just remember that it's not as big an 194 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: issue once they get with an accurate quarterback because those 195 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: guys can throw them open. Those guys can hit short windows. 196 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: Then your question is how good to see with winning 197 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: contested catches. Well, if the coup is not a great separator, 198 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,839 Speaker 1: if I'm going to work off of that, I also 199 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: can acknowledge that in the Senior Ball after watching him 200 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: and I saw his basketball, he was a former basketball player, right, 201 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: so I wrote that up in his notes. You can 202 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: see his basketball background. But the way he controls his body, 203 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: his positioning, controlling the catch space, his hands, and we 204 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: really saw it the Senior Bowl. He was terrific the 205 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 1: first two days of Senior Bowl practices, So that was 206 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: something that really showed up. I just think sometimes, you know, 207 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: you just if all the athletic numbers don't blow you away, 208 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: you kind of forget that being a wide receiver is 209 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: still about being able to win fifty to fifty balls, 210 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: being able to play at a consistent level of energy 211 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: all game long, which he does. You know, he doesn't 212 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: take plays off. And then you stick him with a 213 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: quarterback that's accurate and a good you know, a good 214 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: NFL quarterback who's going to be able to take advantage 215 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: of the windows don't have to be as big, but 216 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: the ball skills matter just as much. Man. I think 217 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: that's why he's really shined. And he was clearly better 218 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: than I gave him credit for coming out. And that 219 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: is interesting that even with Cooper Cup, who had a 220 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: big day last week, who's still got his me still 221 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 1: got his numbers last week, he still is active and effective. 222 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: So here's a funny thing. So I did a thing 223 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 2: where I looked at Pooka the Chewa and actually compared 224 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 2: him to Cooper Cup, and I wondered, man, maybe I 225 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 2: missed out on the tour because I just didn't pay 226 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 2: attention to the trades or whatever early similar to Cooper 227 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 2: Cup in terms of his production coming out of school. 228 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: When you looked at Cooper Cup at Eastern Washington, one size, 229 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 2: while they're identical too, when you look at what Cooper 230 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 2: Cup did at Eastern Washington, he was not only involved 231 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 2: as a receiver, but he touched the ball a lot 232 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 2: as a runner. The Tuer had maybe thirty nine forty 233 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 2: rushes while he was at BYU, not about four hundred yards, 234 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 2: but he was a very credible runner on the perimeter. 235 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 2: And then justin ball skills, over two years, ninety one catches, 236 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: we saw about eighteen hundred yards that he had, and 237 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 2: it was the ability because he was banged up his 238 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 2: last year with his ability to expand the strike zone. 239 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 2: And so even though he doesn't have what I call 240 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: great separation quickness, doesn't create like these huge voids. You 241 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 2: put him with Matthew Stafford, who trusted if I throw 242 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: it to him he can catch it. Well, now it's 243 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 2: next level. I wondered when Cooper Cupp came back how 244 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 2: they were going to reconfigure the offense. Well, we saw it. 245 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 2: The admittedly got Van Jefferson about the paint, brought the 246 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: TUA in and then they got those two big receivers 247 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 2: on the perimeter. They're a little more possession oriented. I 248 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: think if you ask Sean McVay, this is how he 249 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 2: likes it though, because he has two route runner, two 250 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 2: guys that work over the middle of the field, and 251 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 2: he is able to kind of make it happen by 252 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 2: kind of getting the board on, getting the pen on 253 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 2: the white board, and creating these concepts that allow those 254 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: guys to get loose. 255 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: I think the rams wide receiving choices would be a 256 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: fascinating discussion because you got to give him credit for 257 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: not only hitting with Cooper Cup and trusting the scouting 258 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: and trusting the tape. But they did it here with 259 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 1: Puka as well, you know, and you mentioned the same 260 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: kind of guys. They went overboard to me with two 261 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 1: too out well, but to to you know, he's starting 262 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: to come around a little bit. You know, they got 263 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: the but they took a shot was small and fast. Now, 264 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: I didn't love that pick there, and I don't think 265 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: he's been you know, a major factor since they drafted 266 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: him there, other than maybe coming on a little bit 267 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: this year. But I think they took a chance where 268 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: others may not have, which which fascinates me. I think 269 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: Van Jefferson was a great route runner, the guy with 270 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: good hands, you know, had some deficiencies from a speed standpoint, 271 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: but clearly ball skills and football IQ and instincts matter 272 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: a lot to the Rams. Now, the two two was 273 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: just we're gonna go find a burner and we're gonna 274 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: Speed's gonna matter to us. And maybe that's on the 275 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: heels of one of Tyreek Hill's you know, huge seasons. 276 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I think the Rams have an 277 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: interesting way of looking at wide receivers as you know, 278 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: as as proven by the success of Cup and the Chua. 279 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 1: They they understand what they want out of a receiver, 280 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 1: and it's a lot more than just you know, a 281 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: guy does this or he does that. They want guys 282 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: who feel the position, who feel the position, have a 283 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: sense for it and will win contested catches and kind 284 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 1: of are students of the game. You can tell that's 285 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: that's important to them because that's what Van Jefferson was. 286 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: That's what I can't speak for Puka, but I mean 287 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: I would assume he is when they met with them, 288 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: because Van Jefferson's dad, He's got daddy's a wide receiver 289 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: coach in the league. And Cooper Cup. I mean this 290 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: guy clearly when you watch him run routes man, that's 291 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: an important aspect that he works. 292 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 2: A lot on, you know, alas, I think that's one 293 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 2: thing that might be underrated. I think if not only 294 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: like evaluating side speed, all the physical traits, but the 295 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 2: intelligence to IQ the instincts the guys are that you're 296 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 2: looking at that you're considering drafting that you want to 297 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: bring in. Do they eat it, breathe it, sleep it, 298 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 2: Do they love it? Are they willing to do the 299 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 2: dirty work? Have they refined their school, their skills. Who 300 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 2: has been their major influences in terms of you know, 301 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 2: here's the funny thing. Junior Adams, the wide receiver coach 302 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 2: at Washington, coach not only Cooper Cup, but he also 303 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 2: coached Pooka, And so did the Rams get inside information 304 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: when they made those comparisons? You know, like I'm I'm 305 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: doing a comparison, But did they say, hey, Junior, how 306 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 2: close is he to Cooper Cup? Because you know, as 307 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 2: a scout, you're going there, you're always looking for a 308 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 2: comp somebody, and maybe Junior I said, hey, man, this 309 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 2: dude loves it, like he's in here every Monday, He's 310 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 2: looking at tabs, doing all this other stuff. I think 311 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 2: the main thing is when you're scouting, got dig a 312 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: little deeper, dig a little deeper, see how much they 313 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 2: love it, see where it comes from, and see if 314 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 2: they can sustain it. Because in this league, man, it's 315 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 2: not about telling all the guys have talent. It's about 316 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 2: the guys that are able to apply their knowledge and 317 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 2: really develop an expertise that allows them to win over 318 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 2: and over and over again. 319 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: I don't know how to explain this other than you know, 320 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: because having a coach tell you that, or a personal 321 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: guy tell you that, who've hurt from somebody in the building. 322 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: That's a big deal to know that. Stuff like that's 323 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: something that people who like to do this for fun, 324 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: or the Draftnicks, or any of us in this space. 325 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: If we don't hear from people, it's hard for us 326 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: to know that. And those are very important, extremely important 327 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: elements of why a team may pass on a guy 328 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: or why a team may draft a guy that you 329 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: are wondering why. But I do think that when I 330 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: watch tape over and over on a player, it's not 331 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: every player, but every once in a while I get 332 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: a glimpse of somebody that I can until it's important. 333 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: I can tell they love football. I can tell there's 334 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: something about the way that they play, the energy they 335 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: play with. You can you can almost sense level of 336 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: importance for certain players on the field. You can definitely 337 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: see it with linebackers a lot of times with their 338 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: energy on the field. You can see it with with 339 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: safeties for sure. That's another one where where instincts will 340 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: pop up. In instincts now instincts, I think Bucky can 341 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: be confused with with with football with high football character 342 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: because just because you're instinctive, you may say, I mean, 343 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: this guy just sits in there and reads, you know, 344 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: watch his film all day. He loves football. That's not 345 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: necessarily the case. Some dudes just have it. Some guys 346 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: are just extremely instinctive. That doesn't merely mean that they're 347 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: hard workers. 348 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 2: No, they're two completely different things because the work, E 349 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 2: think goes up under your football character. The instincts are 350 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 2: what you see on the field. Like, man, I just 351 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 2: feltter that went for it. I've seen them runners play 352 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 2: a couple of times when a lone in this formation, 353 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 2: I'm going, you know, it's something that's in a Yeah, 354 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 2: film study enhances it, but it's the ability to take 355 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 2: what you're thinking and go and trust it. And it's 356 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 2: the educated guesses that allow you to play a step 357 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 2: faster in those things. It's funny because we talked about 358 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 2: we talked about Alabama, we talked about the Texans. I 359 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 2: felt like Henry Toato I felt like he had that, 360 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 2: you know, and I felt like when you watched him, 361 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:28,919 Speaker 2: you're like, man, this is the linebacker all day. But 362 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 2: in trying to assign a round value or what he 363 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 2: would project as it was the hard thing. But then 364 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 2: you watch him in the league and yeah, I mean, 365 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 2: why wouldn't I think he'd be a pro player. He 366 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 2: played like a pro player at Tennessee and Alabama. That's 367 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 2: what he continues to do. That is the thing. And 368 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,880 Speaker 2: I would say as a scout, trust in your own 369 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 2: gut and your instincts. Man, If guys play and they 370 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 2: played really well, they tend to play really well in 371 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 2: our league well. 372 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,239 Speaker 1: And another instinctive guy that I was a little low 373 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: on you man into was Samuel porter Orta comes from 374 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: tight end you now in Iowa and Sam Laporta, he's 375 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: not a great blocker. I think that he's always going 376 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 1: to have some issues there. But as a pass catcher, 377 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: he has some instincts. He has talent after the run. 378 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: But he is a guy who feels his position really 379 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: really well. He just has a feel for being in space. 380 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: And I think that's really shown. With a creative play 381 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 1: caller in in in Detroit and an accurate quarterback who's 382 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: been around the league for a while and has some success, 383 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: I think that's really helping the rookie Sam laport out 384 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 1: uh in Detroit and he's really me He's proven to 385 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 1: be and look, there's a lot of people who really 386 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: like Sam Laporta a lot. I just felt like there 387 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 1: were guys I liked a little better than Laporta. But 388 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: he's well, he's putting it. He's putting it on tape 389 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: every week. He's putting it on tape that this guy 390 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: is a factor. Now that he kind of understood why 391 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: Detroit felt like they would be okay without Hockinson and 392 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 1: they traded him. Of course, they don't know who they're 393 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: going to get, but it was a deep tight end 394 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: draft and you had to know that when you move Hawkinson. 395 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: Your Scott in the pork department already knew this was 396 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: going to be a really really good tight end draft 397 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: this last year, and they fell into a good one. 398 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. He's a good player, man, he's a good player. 399 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 2: He's a really good player. You talked about Iowa being 400 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 2: ted in you They've had a number of guys come 401 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 2: through there. They're well taught. They understand how to run ross. 402 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 2: More important, they understand how to block. And he's one 403 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 2: man the Detroit Lions have knocked down the park. We 404 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 2: talked about the Rams finding their wide receiver and they 405 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 2: most most I mean, how can we forget b John Robinson. 406 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 2: These rookies, man, this rookie class loaded with talent. So 407 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 2: let's take a break, we'll come back. We'll talking about 408 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 2: coach's corner, talk about my little word for the day, 409 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 2: all Rioz. So we're back. You know, old Bucky Brooks 410 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 2: coaches a little bit. Your dad was a longtime coach. 411 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 2: And what we try and do every week we try 412 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 2: and share like a little nugget. And I am sure 413 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 2: your dad has had this conversation with some of the 414 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 2: players that he played, particularly on the offensive line. And 415 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 2: so our theme for the day is dominating your role. 416 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 2: And so h one of the things that we all 417 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 2: have to do, whether it's playing or being in our 418 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 2: walk of life. Like think about us in the media, 419 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 2: bids us at NFL Network doing all the things. You 420 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 2: got to figure out, You got to get in where 421 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 2: you fit in, and you got to find a way 422 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 2: to thrive in the role that you're given. And so 423 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 2: when I think about it with like young players and coaching, 424 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 2: what you do is you tell young players, hey man, 425 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 2: this game is the ultimate trust game. If I am 426 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 2: a coach, am I going to play you? I got 427 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 2: to trust you? And the only way you can earn 428 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 2: my trust is if I give you a little bit 429 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 2: and you do a lot with it. Meaning maybe I 430 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 2: give you, Hey, here's what I want you to do. I 431 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 2: want to do this on special teams. I'll watch how 432 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 2: you handle that. You show great energy, great dedication. You 433 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 2: then put up performance and production that kind of stands out. Well. Now, 434 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,959 Speaker 2: maybe I'll give you a little more, maybe I expand 435 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 2: your role. But before you can get more things, you 436 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 2: have to take what you're given, and you really got 437 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 2: to crush it. And I would imagine for you last 438 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 2: let's just think about you doing all the profiles and 439 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 2: stuff for the draft. Someone had to say, Hey, Laansce, 440 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you a shot at this. Hey, look 441 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 2: at these guys and get back to me. And then 442 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 2: after you crush the report, it expands. So for me, 443 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 2: much like I'm sure your dad did. Hey, man, if 444 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 2: you can dominate this small role, then it gives me 445 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 2: confidence that you can dominate a bigger role down the end. 446 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. So I've been at radio for twenty six years, right, 447 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: And so I started when I was I was doing 448 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: like a weekend, I was doing this little thing when 449 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 1: I was like twenty four, doing this little weekend thing, 450 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: and it's exactly that, like you've got to so the 451 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 1: phrase the thing is the thing, Well, when you understand it. 452 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 1: If you're worried about where you're trying to get to 453 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: and I don't care if this is a quarterback, a 454 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: head coach, you have to worry about your process. You 455 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: can't just worry about results, or you can't worry about 456 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 1: if you're and you say, well, I want to eventually 457 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 1: become this whatever you are right now, be the best 458 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: at what you are right now, You're exactly right. And 459 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: if if your whole thing is is trying to be 460 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: a starting center and you're a backup center, then what 461 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: do you need to do? You need to lift more? 462 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: Are you going to are you gonna become the is 463 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: your technique going to get better? If you're somebody who 464 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: is trying to become a sales manager and you're in 465 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: sales and you got to just be great at sale, 466 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: what is it in sales that you can dominate? As 467 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: you mentioned dominating your position now, because dominance, when you 468 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: dominate your position, when you when you get to be 469 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 1: the best at what you are, when that's important enough 470 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: that you begin to master it, you're going to move 471 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: up like you're going to elevate. And the same thing 472 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 1: with teams. I've watched it with a bad you know, 473 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: the baseball team we talked about that. I follow the Astros. 474 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: They were atrocious, they were terrible, and they had to 475 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: take little steps. And you have to understand who you 476 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: are and what you are. But then, as you mentioned, 477 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: like you do have control, you don't have control how 478 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 1: fast you you get to some place. But if you 479 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: dominate where you are right now, trust me, the journey 480 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: gets there a lot quicker. 481 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 2: The journey does get there a lot quick. And it's 482 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 2: one of the things that everyone has to understand exactly 483 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 2: how they fit in. You have to be willing to 484 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 2: at times for the team over yourself. But if you 485 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 2: pour all the way into the team, you also have 486 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 2: to trust the fact that when the team gets has success, 487 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 2: everybody individually up under that will also have success. I 488 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 2: think you and I have seen it in our professional careers. Man, 489 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 2: you get with a good team, the team elevates you 490 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 2: and you get more opportunities because of the team that 491 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 2: you're associated with. It is one of those things when 492 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 2: we talk about people getting into the business, you talked 493 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 2: about your story and radio very similar to my story 494 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 2: and media. Man, You're just looking for an opportunity, and 495 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 2: when you get that opportunity, you really got to cherish 496 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 2: the small and then hope that someone recognizes the work 497 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 2: that you poured into that little thing and they decide 498 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 2: to really gamble on you and give you more. So 499 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 2: that's the little coaching corner for the day.
