When I started, I 113 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 2: couldn't do that. So when I started into the sport, 114 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 2: I'm there at five am. He loved nuts, just trying 115 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 2: to get that muscle memory. Uh Now, I would say 116 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,919 Speaker 2: with single lug it's a different little progression, like you 117 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 2: can progress faster, but you still got to get to 118 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 2: the track and learn DB's. You know, you can look 119 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: good in w drill one on ones, but when you 120 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 2: get in the game, you you feel different things, you 121 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: learn different things, and you experience different things. So that's 122 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 2: when they say you need track experience. You got to 123 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: feel that that car rubbing. 124 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 3: Your heels when you're going out like all that makes 125 00:05:54,080 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 3: it difference. How many times you've been here by a card? 126 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 3: Uh what you said? How many times have you been 127 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 3: here by a car?

Imagine going 130 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 6: on seventy seventy seven on the way turn around, put 131 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 6: your heels on that white line, close your eyes, and 132 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 6: let all the cars whisp by you. That's what it 133 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 6: feels like being at the track. And if you can 134 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 6: do that, you got what it takes to be a picture. 135 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 4: Got So was that like, I know there's rookie Hazen 136 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 4: in the league, so it was just like a Marshall, 137 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 4: I know you're not used to this, but I want 138 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 4: you to take your heels. 139 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 6: Close you. 140 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: Don't get hit. Is that like a hazy thing that 141 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 3: you'll have to go through. Nah, But it sends a message. 142 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 6: I would say it sends a message of what you're 143 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 6: getting into because, like Jeremy Kimber said, I got hit 144 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 6: a time.

So kind of when I 175 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 1: go out there, I'm kind of more of an extension, 176 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: you know, as opposed to I got objects outside of 177 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: me with those tires. And so typically when cars are 178 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: coming around, it's all about knowing the scenario situations like 179 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: if we're running eleventh and the team over here they're 180 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: running fourteenth, we know that when we come in that 181 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: they're going to be coming exactly around us. So it's 182 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: like being able to be prepared to all right, we're 183 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: going to stop short. Okay, maybe I might have to 184 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 1: tuck up to you a little bit stay close, you 185 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: know tight the color as far as like football, the color. 186 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 3: That means like staying closer to the white one to 187 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 3: each other. 188 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, staying closer to each other, right, Okay, because the further. 189 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 3: You know, I'm learning, who said that's where the black guy. 190 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, with Marshall being a jack man, he's kind of 191 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: like my reference because, uh, he's going to be the 192 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: closest to the car off the initial because he has 193 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: to jack the car. 194 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 3: He got to get left. So if I know that 195 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 3: I'm tight to him, more than. 196 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: Likely I got myself a little pocket that to let 197 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: that car go around and then I'm able to run 198 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: around and get to the rear. Then I take those 199 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: old tires off, bring them back to the wall, and 200 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: uh I sometimes we have an adjustment. I have a 201 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: sticker wrench in my mouth the hole in the back 202 00:09:58,640 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: of the car. 203 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 3: Did hold on? 204 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:10,439 Speaker 1: I got to show a video with it, your homies, Yeah, 205 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: I'll just you make adjustments to the cars. So it 206 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: depended on That's why you have to pay attention during 207 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: the race. Audio cues is huge force and just hearing 208 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: the information and the feedback that the driver gives back 209 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: kind of give your anticipation of which way of the 210 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 1: adjustment that I'm going to go. So it's it's definitely 211 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 1: like a mental sport on my end, but it's all 212 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: muscle memory, though. 213 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 3: I got you. 214 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 4: You know one thing that I don't think everybody knows, 215 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 4: I just learned today. So that goes into maybe some 216 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 4: of the strategy pieces that you're talking about, which is 217 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 4: you only get to carry you like forty tires into 218 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 4: a race, right, but depending on which red long track 219 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 4: versus s its. 220 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 2: Regulated by that whoever, how do they decide that you 221 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 2: get a certain a lot of amount that you can buy. 222 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 3: How long did it take for y'all to learn like 223 00:10:59,120 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 3: the strategy? 224 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 6: Yes, I still don't know it. 225 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 3: It's yeah, it's ongoing for sure. Yeah, it's it's it's 226 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 3: constant involvement, you know. Uh, how I came in. 227 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 1: I used to YouTube all the races just to learn 228 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: the terminologies and understand how the teams work and look 229 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: at the pit stops overall. So then once you kind 230 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 1: of start doing that and you go to these tracks, 231 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: kind of got a feel of what you're going to 232 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: be getting. Like some tracks we might be have eight 233 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: sets tires. Some tracks you might have three. So it 234 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: just depends on uh, the surface of the track and everything. 235 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: And I kind of just have you know, that's like 236 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: my film. 237 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 3: For the week. 238 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: I'll watch the race, see what happened, what kind of occurred, 239 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 1: and then I'll watched the film from what I did 240 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: in that in that race.

Okay, So that's what I'm like. 367 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 6: What's going to What happens is when you're in the 368 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 6: real the fuel is right here. So you got a 369 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 6: gas that got a a spear shaped for fuel about 370 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 6: one hundred pounds, and so once he engages, if you 371 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 6: don't engage correctly, feel few just gonna splash. So when 372 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 6: the changer engaging and it's it's a spark. 373 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's true. 374 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 4: So that's highly flavorable guy, absolutely. 375 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 6: But the crazy thing about that is I'm watching the 376 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 6: guy on fire. They spray him out, and once once 377 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 6: he was sprayed, he went back to finish his job. Man, 378 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 6: the most impressive thing I've seen to this to the day. 379 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 4: Yet and it's the mob. How it's just that above 380 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 4: this was it ninety three? This is above ninety three. Bush. 381 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 4: I'll ask you, I'll start you. Other guys can chime 382 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 4: into after they hear you. Uh, what experiences in the 383 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 4: NFL helped you prepare you for what you're doing now 384 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 4: as a changer? 385 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 2: People ask that a lot. And for me, man, this 386 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 2: is nothing like it like playing in the NFL. 387 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 3: We grew up doing that changing tires. 388 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,919 Speaker 2: You can't really get YouTube like how to change the 389 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 2: tire and NASCAR like you can watch pit stocks, but 390 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, it's different to me. 391 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 3: There's really no comparison. You got to be it did 392 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 3: not now. 393 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 2: No, I will say there's a certain mentality that we've developed, 394 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 2: you know, through just competition in general, that allow us, 395 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 2: like especially as a dB as a tire changer. Next 396 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 2: play mentality you mess something up, a next pisstop mentality 397 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 2: because you got to do it again. And for me, 398 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 2: that's that's something that I latch onto that that I 399 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 2: translate from football to NASCAR. But outside of that is 400 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 2: to me, it's not the same, Like NFL is way 401 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 2: more stressful, high stress environment. I'm still in the state 402 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 2: of NASCAR where I'm learning a lot. 403 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 3: Right, what year are you in?

Like if you go up on 621 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 1: top of the box during the race and look at 622 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: those guys screens like, I mean, it's crazy.

You know, they do 627 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: a good job, but you know it's a it's definitely 628 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: a different world being the crew chief and making those. 629 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 4: I know, it's heavily regulated too, right, like they checked 630 00:31:59,000 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 4: like everything. 631 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 3: Everything's very very regulated, is what you guys. 632 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 6: Can and so you know, almost like football too. After 633 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 6: the game on Sunday, Tuesday, we come in, we watch 634 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 6: family breakdown what we did wrong. Then we move on 635 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 6: to the next when when we perform on Sunday, they 636 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 6: give us that Monday off and then we come in 637 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 6: Tuesday and we'll go over. You know what we've done right, 638 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 6: what we've done wrong. And once we're doing that, were 639 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 6: are and then we're prepare for the weekend that's coming up, 640 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 6: such as, Okay, we're going to Darlington. It's gonna be 641 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 6: thirteen stops. We can have thirteen. That's a tire Land. 642 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 3: Obviously we're probably gonna hit at this stage. 643 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 6: So we already have an idea already what we needed 644 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 6: was going on into that race, depending on. 645 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 3: What track we is. 646 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 6: But like Kimbro said, the crew chief, he's the man 647 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 6: of the operations and wants the race start. 648 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 4: The ideas, Yeah, that's we think we got this, gotcha. 649 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 4: Then when the game starts, we got to play the game. 650 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 6: Glue to him, Hey, come down, We're gonna do right 651 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 6: with the right side adjustment, gonna do four tires and X, 652 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 6: Y and Z and we just execute. 653 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 3: And I don't think the pick crew get enough credit. 654 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 6: Because a lot you know, wins and fails with us, 655 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 6: you know, obviously getting a car, because this is game 656 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 6: of it's a game of inches. You know, a tenth 657 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 6: of the second can cost you a million dollars, you know, 658 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 6: So as gods, as professionals who go out there weekend 659 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 6: and we count. 660 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: We have to be on us because there's no room 661 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 3: for error. 662 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 6: And I think that's the difference between NASCAR and football 663 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 6: is in football you got ten other people that can 664 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 6: you know, save saving I'm sure day. But in Nascar 665 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 6: is each individual man got to perfect their craft and 666 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 6: if they don't do it, it calls a hiccup, and 667 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 6: we it's muscle memory, so we get one.

He was 919 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,840 Speaker 2: three or four years older than I am, and uh 920 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 2: he always believed in everything that I did, whether it 921 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 2: was football, like doing music or whatever. Like when I 922 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 2: was in college, he connected me with Jonathan Stewart to 923 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 2: make music. So I always thought, when I graduated college, 924 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 2: I'm going to going to LA to produce music. 925 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's always what I believed in. 926 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:52,319 Speaker 2: And uh, I got an injury in college and I 927 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 2: had to sit out for you know, six or eight months, 928 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 2: and just from that aspect of missing football, it was like, yo, 929 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 2: like when I get this back, I'm never gonna take 930 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 2: it for granted again. So then I just worked and 931 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 2: worked and talked to him. He taught me through all 932 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 2: that stuff because at that time he was in the 933 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 2: league already and he was like, bro, like this guy, 934 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 2: like you can play in the NFL just working at it. Yeah, 935 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 2: And it's not that I gave up. It was just 936 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 2: like that I didn't grow up thinking like I'm a guy. Yeah, 937 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 2: like I'm gonna go to the NFL, like because I 938 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 2: knew the odds. I'm an intelligent guy, like I just 939 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 2: always knew, like I produced music since I was twelve, 940 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 2: I can do this for sure. But once I bounced 941 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,400 Speaker 2: back from that, I was an All American and everything 942 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 2: just started clicking. And with his guidance through that, like 943 00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 2: he was teaching me about like finances having having to 944 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 2: do with training camp, just making ross's saying no. 945 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,919 Speaker 3: To people like this, things like that.

But and he was from Sharlie 949 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 2: played for the Panthers actually, so he had a lot 950 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 2: of people reaching out to him asking himself. So for 951 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,760 Speaker 2: him to have those conversations with him, it just prepared 952 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 2: me to have better success. 953 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 3: Do you still produce music? 954 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:11,239 Speaker 6: I do? 955 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,359 Speaker 3: I figured you Yeah, all right. 956 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 4: What you're gonna give us something we take with us. 957 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 4: I mean, like a little you know, something you got 958 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 4: in the works.

I was like, man, but he was 1001 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 6: just like and it's the first time that I knew 1002 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,720 Speaker 6: that I had a possibility to play in the NFL. 1003 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 3: I was looking at. 1004 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. He was like, man, I came here 1005 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:45,399 Speaker 6: just to see you. I was like, yeah. He was like, well, 1006 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 6: just watching, I ain't too many guys that can do 1007 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 6: what you're doing. I think you can be a second 1008 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 6: round draft pick. And after my senior season or whatever 1009 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 6: the case may be, I got injured a lot my 1010 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:00,560 Speaker 6: scene because they granted me another year. Only played like 1011 00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 6: in four games with the injury. I picked up seventy 1012 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 6: pounds in college and went as a dB, came out 1013 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:05,920 Speaker 6: as the middle linebacker. 1014 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 3: Good. Yeah, I didn't even know who starting until we 1015 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 3: got to college. Didn't even know. 1016 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 6: So just banged up with a hamstring injury. With the 1017 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 6: waiting explosive. Y'all know how y'all know. Yeah, y'all know 1018 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 6: how that worked. So man, believe it or not, Man, 1019 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 6: the draft, it was a lock out year. 1020 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 3: I think it was twenty eleven like I, yeah, yeah, 1021 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:26,399 Speaker 3: it was, it was. It was. 1022 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 6: It was a lockout year when everything was when the 1023 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:31,480 Speaker 6: dust settled, I was at home. I ain't get a 1024 00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 6: call from nobody, like nothing. So my agent had moved 1025 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,439 Speaker 6: here to solid the train, so I was training it. 1026 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 6: Eventually I started, you know, helped working there because obviously 1027 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,040 Speaker 6: the season was passing me bar but I kept myself. 1028 00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:48,279 Speaker 6: I kept being grounded and kept working out and you know, 1029 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,319 Speaker 6: staying in shape. And I think the stiller was lost 1030 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 6: against Never in the playoffs. 1031 00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:55,600 Speaker 3: I guess they lost the t Bowl whatever that was 1032 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:56,319 Speaker 3: a t bow game. 1033 00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 6: Absolutely right after that game, man, I got a call 1034 00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 6: from you know who. I mean, y'all know how HBCU 1035 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 6: two seeing any injuries didn't get a call. Yeah, I 1036 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 6: know that one was fast. But after that, after that, 1037 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:13,840 Speaker 6: after that, they lost his playoff.
