1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: And now Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. 2 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,959 Speaker 1: What's up, everybody walking to Move the Sticks presented by 3 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: the Ford f series. DJ Bucky here from the Beast 4 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 1: Quake Conference during What Bucks Man, It's been a good 5 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: day so far. Excited about some of the things we 6 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,439 Speaker 1: got going on. Yeah, today's show. Uh got some cool 7 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 1: stuff going down today on the show. I want you 8 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:23,600 Speaker 1: tell the folks what we got coming up today, Buck. 9 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: Part of my excitement stands from our conversation with Penn 10 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: State HITD coach James Franklin. Were gonna take a look 11 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: at Monday Night Football reviews some of the players, particularly 12 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota. And then we have an offensive line of 13 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 1: the week, a surprise teams. All right, so we got 14 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: a lot to jump into. Let's let's start off, as 15 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: we do every week, with what happened the night before 16 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: Monday Night Football. Big win. Their first time in a 17 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: long time that the the Tennessee Titans have been able 18 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 1: to defeat the Indianapolis Colts. And Buck went back and 19 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: watch this football game this morning. Uh didn't see it 20 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: last night. Watched the tape, especially focused in on the 21 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans. Offense. They win thirty six twenty to A 22 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: couple of those running backs got loose. Derrick Henry big game, 23 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 1: hundred thirty one yards, including a long touchdown at the 24 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: end of the game. I'll get to that playing a 25 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,960 Speaker 1: little bit. But something that you've talked about a lot 26 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: with the development of young quarterbacks and watching this game, 27 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: it was so evident to me that this is how 28 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: they're using Marcus Morito. I want to say the word 29 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: protecting him, but how they're they found a formula that works, 30 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,119 Speaker 1: and a lot of times we look at just number 31 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: runs versus number passes. They were very balanced, thirty four 32 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 1: runs thirty two passes. But to me, when they're throwing 33 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: the football, it's primarily one of three things. One is 34 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: off of off of the run game, off play action. 35 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: It could be r PO or whatever. There's there's run 36 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: action involved. That's number one. Number two, you get five 37 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: out in the route, get five guys out. It's it's 38 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: a quick decision. It's get the ball out of your 39 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: hand right away. You've got a lot of options, find 40 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: find a soft spot, get the ball in your hands. 41 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: And then number three is that want to they want 42 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: to take deep shots down the field. It's eight man protection, 43 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: it's max protection. It's a two man route. They had 44 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: one where they allowed Eric Decker kind of ran a 45 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: little out and up and and came back, turned into 46 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: a comeback, and it was an intricate route that took 47 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: forever to get there. But it's it's max protection, it's 48 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: get everybody out, or it's used to use the running 49 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: it's not. It's not he's just taking a five step 50 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: drop with a six man protection and kind of working 51 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 1: through the field. It's not. That's not what they're doing. No, 52 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: that's not. And I think it's the evolution of the 53 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: quarterback position and how you're having to coach these young guys. 54 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: You have to put him in their sweet spot, put 55 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: him in the comfort zone. We are seeing more these 56 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: young quarterbacks have success when the office coordinator of the 57 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: play caller is designing plays that are very, very similar 58 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: and familiar to them from the college days. Look, we 59 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: never thought that this National Football League would evolve to 60 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: this kind of offense. But the way we're seeing it 61 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 1: and the way we're seeing the young guys respond, I 62 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: think more and more teams are going to continue to 63 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: steal ideas from the college game to have the young 64 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: quarterbacks get going. And then everybody asked the question, right, 65 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: how do you you know a couple of years ago, 66 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: how do these spread quarterbacks transition to the NFL. It's 67 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: a different game. It's not really a different game anymore 68 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: that it's home more and more like Saturday's. We've been 69 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: beating that drum for a long time, but now you're 70 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 1: really seeing it when you study these offenses. Not only 71 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: it's not it's not gimmicky, it's just they found a 72 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: different way to play the position to get the job done. 73 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 1: And it's not even about don't throw the box scores 74 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: out in these football games. I think, Mariota, how many 75 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: have don't here four three of your games in his career, 76 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: including last night. But they've got a formula and they've 77 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: got an offense that fits his skill set and they 78 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: know how to win football games. Yeah, and I think 79 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: that's the main thing the guys that winning. He was 80 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: a winner or again he has coming to the Nation 81 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: Football League, he's kind of figured out what he can 82 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: do well. They put him in the offense. They really 83 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: maximizes his talent um as a dual threat playmaker and 84 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: they're winning games. So as long as everything around him 85 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: is good, the running game is good, the receivers, they've 86 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: upgraded the receiver corps to help him with more dependable guys. 87 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: And look, he continues to grow in this offense, and 88 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: as the offensive coordinated Terry Rubiski, continues to add more 89 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: elements to the offense, I think we'll see Marcus Mariota's 90 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: game continue to take um a step forward. Remember those 91 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: doubters for Derrick Henry when he was coming out. He's 92 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: high cut, he's too big, it's not gonna work. We 93 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: had this discussion. I remember having this this chat. Probably 94 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: don't know if we're on there all, yeah, but I 95 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: remember just saying, look, at the end of the day, 96 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: he's he's I know a couple of things. He's huge, 97 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: he's fast, and he's productive. So that is irrefutable. You 98 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: can't you can't debate that. Now he's he's a slow starter. 99 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: That's that in the other I don't know. He did 100 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: at a pretty high level in the SEC and he's 101 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 1: continued to do it. Big game for him against the 102 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts, very big game. I mean, he saw the 103 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: big seventy two yard run at the end of the game. 104 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: The big thing with Dirrick Henry and we talked about 105 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: this doing to run up to the draft. Uh, he's 106 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: a guy who's going to need a bit of a 107 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: runway to get going. He's kind of a long strider, 108 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: not necessarily a nifty or a quick jump cut guy, 109 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: but he has the ability to make cutbacks when the 110 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: holes present themselves. But he is a load and they're 111 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 1: beginning to give him an opportunity to run the ball 112 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: when it matters, particularly down the stretch. He's showing that 113 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: he can respond. We saw the big run against a 114 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: tired defense. This exotic smashmouth attag that Mike Malarkey promise 115 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: is certainly looking like it can deliver big, big results. 116 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: And it's kind of weird because I remember we we 117 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: I know we had this chat. Because people think about 118 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: how big he is, like, oh, he's just an inside runner. 119 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: He's at his best when he can go lateral, put 120 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: a foot in the ground, and then burst upfield. That's 121 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: where he's hats best because he's not gonna be shifty 122 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: in tight areas, working inside the tackles, being able to 123 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: latterly shift and make people miss. That's not his game. 124 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: But you get him going lateral, find a crease, and 125 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: once he finds a crease, he hits it. And if 126 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: you don't square him up, you've got no shot of 127 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: getting him on the ground. You have no shot. I mean, 128 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: he makes you make business decisions in the back end. 129 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: He's big pounds guy that can run low for four 130 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: forty and he doesn't mind dropping the hammer on you. Yeah, 131 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: it's a tough day when he gets loose in the secondary, 132 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: because I don't think many secondary members, safeties, corners want 133 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: to really deal with a big back like that. Looking 134 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: on the other side of the ball, I thought you 135 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: kind of saw it. Look, I'm the biggest fan there 136 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: is a Mali Cooker throughout the process. Had an outstanding 137 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: pass for up with Delaney Walker down there in the 138 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: red zone, down the end zone where you saw his 139 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: just instincts being able to play the football. Great play. 140 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: But to two touchdowns in this game, you can kind 141 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: of point to Mulley Cooker. Looked in one they were 142 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: in kind of a quarter quarter half. Look, he's a 143 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: high safety, got spun around a long touchdown, and then 144 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: you saw him on the Derrick Henry touchdown. Look, you free, 145 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: you the last man you tell that kid when you're dealing, 146 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: when you're coaching little kids, are safety down. Just get 147 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: him on the ground. I don't care. You know, meet 148 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: some killer out there, just just drag him to the ground. 149 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: He doesn't do it. Seventy two yard run kind of 150 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: the exclamation point in this football game. So making plays outstanding. 151 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: Love that about Mulley Cooker, but he's got to clean 152 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: up some stuff as well. He has to be attackled. 153 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: The biggest issue for him in the draft with would 154 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: he be a solid enough tackler, a guy that would 155 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: come down he'll make big tackles that the line of scrimmage. 156 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: You need a line of scrimmage, and everyone head their 157 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: debase because he's a natural basketball player. He's a terrific 158 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: center fielder. But at the end of the day, there's enough. 159 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: There's a level of toughness and physicality that you have 160 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: to exhibit if you're gonna be a high level safety. 161 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: He has to team to work on that part of 162 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: his game because in terms of past defense, he has 163 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 1: those tools, but he has to be able to come 164 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: down here and bang a little bit if he's gonna 165 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: be a start and saved. No, of course, Uh he's 166 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: uh doing a lot of things really well. Still some 167 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: areas he can improve all right. Time now for the 168 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: offensive Line of the Week, presented by the Ford f series. 169 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: This is uh something our buddy Shanna here does NFL 170 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: dot com slash forward. You can check out the build 171 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: Ford Tough Old Line of the Week. He actually ranks 172 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: the top five. However, I don't know what Sean did 173 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: this week. I don't know who he's got, but we 174 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: get to do our own winner Buck and uh my 175 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: nomination is the Chicago Bears, just because of Baltimore Ravens 176 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: are a defensive oriented football team and playing great defense 177 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,559 Speaker 1: there for a long time. This is the most rushing 178 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: yards they've ever given up. I mean, it's hard to 179 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: knock that when when you look at the numbers, fifty 180 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: four rushing care fifty four rushes, two thirty one rushing yards. 181 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: Being able to run it at will whether they knew 182 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: it was coming or not. They continue to pound the 183 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: ball in between the tackles, running on the edges effectively. 184 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears offensive line des There's a lot of credit. 185 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: I had to Tennessee Titans as a close second, but 186 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: the Bears deserved not because this production is ridiculous. Yeah, 187 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: and to me, you look at Mr Bisku, you do 188 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: not play great in this game. It's eight or sixteen. 189 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: Got sacked four times, um, some of those on him 190 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: holding onto the football. But this is the formula for them. 191 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: Run the ball fifty four times and untell Mitch three. 192 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: I need to make three plays either with with your 193 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: legs or with your arm. And he found a way 194 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: a nice touchdown getting outside the pocket, had a couple 195 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: of big runs. But if you can give you three 196 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: big plays and and they'll throw interceptions. If you can 197 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: do that, will be in football games. Will have a shot. 198 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: You know, I haven't been around John Fox for a 199 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: long time. He's okay with that formula. He believes in 200 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: that we're gonna run it. We canna play a great defense, 201 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: quarterback make a handful of plays. Uh, the game would 202 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: be there to be one in the fourth quarter. We've 203 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: seen Chicago Bears be able to do it. This has 204 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: been a very, very competitive team throughout the season. It's 205 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: just a matter of getting that solid play from the quarterback. 206 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: And it won't be great from a rookie at that position. 207 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: But if he can just avoid the big miscuse, give 208 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: them a little something as a runner, and find a 209 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: way to make those three plays that you allude to. 210 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: Yet Bears can win some games. One more thing I 211 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: want to get to before we have some fun with 212 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: James Franklin talk about s Kwan Barkley a little bit, 213 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: as well as recap last week in the college football 214 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: UH weekend there the New Orleans Saints. But what they've done, 215 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: they made some moves obviously, trade Brandon Cooks in the 216 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: off season, get a draft pick. I want to focus 217 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. Got an upgrade there. 218 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: I think it's safe to say after watching what they've 219 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: done the last couple of weeks, this is a team 220 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,719 Speaker 1: that's it's it's a much improved on the defensive side 221 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: of the ball, much improved on the defense of the ball. 222 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: Just looking at the stats the last three games, they're 223 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: given up seventeen points per game, they produced nine takeaways, 224 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: three defensive scores. And the way they're doing it, they're 225 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: trying to do it really by leaning on the blitz. 226 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: This is a team that blitz from every angle. They're 227 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: trying to bring a lot of pressure, but with pressure, 228 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: he causes chaos chaos for the quarterback, and we're seeing 229 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: the turnovers because they're able to get people around the 230 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 1: bodies of the quarterback. A lot of defenders balls and 231 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: tips over the roome, errant passes, hurry passes. They're leading 232 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: the interceptions, and so the Saints are playing very very 233 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: well on defense, one of the reasons why they're back 234 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: in the race in the NFC staw. Yeah, one other defender, 235 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: Marshawn Latimore, their rookie. Just watched him for for something 236 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: I'm doing, uh for NFL playbook show. But he's playing 237 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: at a high level. Had to pick six in that 238 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: game off of a tip. You always talk about tips 239 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: and overthrows. Gets to pick six, But to me, it 240 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: wasn't even the biggest contribution that he made because they're 241 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: down there in the red zone. It's a fourth down, 242 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: he's in zone. He kind of sinks with the corner 243 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: and then they throw in the flat. He bursts up, 244 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: secures the tackle short of the goal line. That's a 245 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: huge stop. And then even late in the game they 246 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: had they had a turnover, a fumble recovery. After the scoop, 247 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: there's another fumble. He's hustling, he's around the football falls 248 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: on it. So he he had really had his hand 249 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: in three big plays in this ballgame. And from an 250 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: athletic fluid standpoint, and just he's he's a smooth operator. 251 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: He's shot out there. I mean he is smooth. He's 252 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: very natural. He can make all the turns and transitions 253 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: that you want to see. My biggest issue with him 254 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: coming coming out was he going to be dependable enough 255 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: in terms of his durability because injuries had been ishtstrings right, 256 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: and then it wasn't gonna be a tough enough to 257 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 1: come up and smack a little bit on the corner. 258 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: He has shown that he can hold his own and 259 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: when he's healthy and right and on the field, he 260 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,959 Speaker 1: is really an upper echelon player at the position. Last 261 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: nugget here, and then we'll move on to the college game. Um, 262 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: if you're coaching quarterbacks, if you're working with quarterbacks, I 263 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: think an area where you need to spend more time 264 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: watching how the college game has evolved and watching how 265 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: the NFL game has evolved. We spend so much time 266 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: with footwork. You know he's spending footwork. You spend time 267 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: when you're throwing motion. This another ball handling some of 268 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: the ball handling we see on Saturdays and Sundays is 269 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: so intricated, so uh it's so much more involved than 270 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: the stuff that I grew up with, uh simple play 271 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: action and simple boot. Now with all the different RPOs 272 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: and all the different actions you have with the with 273 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: the ghost motion and all these uh r p O s. Man, 274 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 1: it's you gotta you gotta really work on your ball handling. 275 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: If your quarterback right now, you absolutely have to work 276 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: on your ball handling. And I think what's interesting it 277 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: takes me back to a conversation that we had with 278 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: a couple of coaches at the Pack twelve media day. 279 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: Clay Hilton in particular, talked about the quarterbacks that he 280 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: wanted were basketball players point guards. And all I can 281 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: think about now are those drills that you used to 282 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: do in the gym where you circling the ball around 283 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: the figure eight drills with the ball in between your legs, 284 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: um different passing drills that you go back and forth, 285 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: making the ball feel like an extension of your hand. 286 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: The quarterback has to feel the same way when he's 287 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: in the pocket dealing with the ball. UH. Ball security 288 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: ball handle is critical to being able to be a 289 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: successful deceiver at the quarterback position, no question alright buck. 290 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: For decades, one big razor company has relentlessly increased prices 291 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: and reaped immense profits at the expense of its customers. 292 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: So Jeff and Nanny, two ordinary guys were fed up 293 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: with getting ripped off, started Harry's to fix shaving.

UH weekend. We had last weekend. Pickwise, we 313 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: were just average. It was not my best week. But 314 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 1: UH didn't have a chance to go to the USC 315 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: football game and check out Sam Donald. Actually took my 316 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: son it was his birthday. Took him in a buddy, 317 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: went down there, got down there into the field before warmups, 318 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: and UH be able to take in the ball game 319 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: and see him sloppy early on. I'm sure as you 320 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: saw watching the ball game, very sloppy early on ball handling. 321 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 1: We're just talking about Sam Donald's had an issue with 322 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: putting the ball on the ground. A couple of fumbles 323 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 1: in this game, had a couple of fumbles against Oregon State. 324 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: So a lot of the focus has been on the 325 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: interceptions fumbles. He's gotta clean up as well. But as 326 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: we always say, with Sam Donald down fourteen points, money time, 327 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: gotta have it, third downs, fourth down, second half, he 328 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: makes it happen. He does make it happen. I think 329 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: his best quality is going to be his ability to 330 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: find a way to win games. He is the guy 331 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: that understands how to lead his team to the winners circle. 332 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: There's a value in that because it's not always going 333 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: to be clean. It's not always gonna be pretty when 334 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: you're quarterback in the National Football League. But your quarterback 335 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: needs to be able to guide with two minutes live, 336 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: we can handle the ball and he can make everything right. 337 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: That is the one thing that we all know confidently 338 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: that Sam Donald can do. He can make it right 339 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: when it's a critical situation. And then let's go to 340 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: the other quarterback in Los Angeles. Josh Rosen did not 341 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: didn't have a big game. He goes to Arizona, they lose. 342 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: Arizona is running the crud out of the ball with 343 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: Cleil Tate, their their quarterback. But Josh Rosen couple of 344 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: turn a verse, maybe pressing just a little bit. Man. 345 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: It's it's it's gonna be interesting with him because we 346 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: talked about we're gonna talk to James Franklin about it, 347 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: and I'm just a little bit here about what he 348 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: looks for in a quarterback. But now you're kind of 349 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: looking at Josh Rosen's usually a football team. There's a 350 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: lot of challenging games ahead of them on the schedule. 351 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: There's a chance they might not have a winning record 352 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: this year, and how that gets viewed in the draft room, 353 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: I think is is pretty interesting. Isn't critical because we 354 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: had this conversation. We had the conversation about comparing Josh 355 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: Rosen to Jay Cutler, and I think it would be 356 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: a very apt comparison at the end of the season 357 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: if he elects to come out, because j Culer at 358 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt never necessarily had a winning record, and I think 359 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: Jay Cutler's last year at Vanderbilt, we gave him credit 360 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: for leading Vanderbilt to a five and six record in 361 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: the SEC, which was viewed as the best conference in 362 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: football at the time. With Josh Rosen, when you look 363 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: at the individual skills separate and apart from his winning record, 364 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: he has everything I Q arm talent, get through a 365 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: time again, anticipation um has good enough footwork within the 366 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: pocket to escape, but the attitude and the wins. That's 367 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: going to be the big challenge for evaluated is to 368 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: determine whether he can be the face of the franchise 369 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: because he has all the physical traits. But is he 370 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: a winner? Is he someone that you can hit your 371 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: wagon too and say we're going to win a lot 372 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: of games because Josh Rosen is our quarterback. I was 373 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: talking to a scout on the field before the sc 374 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: game and Baker Mayfield's name came up. And they had 375 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: a big win over Texas. Not a huge game from Mayfield, 376 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: three yards too, touches one pick, but it was interesting. 377 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: I said, you know, build wise, does he remind you 378 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: at all of Russell Wilson, because I've heard that comp 379 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: a little bit. People have thrown that around and and 380 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 1: he said, look, he's not as tightly packed as Russell was, 381 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: but he is strong. And he thought from last year 382 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: to this year, he said, watched him over the summer. 383 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: I wasn't really enthused about his NFL prospects, but he said, 384 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: he is a much better football player this year. And 385 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: he's kind of one of those guys. If you're not 386 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: in on the big dudes, which I think are gonna 387 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: end up going high if they all come out top 388 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: ten picks, he's kind of being in that next group. 389 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 1: He's being targeted as Okay, at this point in the process. 390 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: But I would say second round. It's kind of what 391 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: his The chatter is with him, Okay, that's the guy. 392 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: We may be not gonna get in that first tier, 393 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 1: but there's people and he's one of them, believe he 394 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: can be an NFL starter. How about this? So I 395 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: think it. I don't want to put him in the 396 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: same conversation because I know the Twitter versus is gonna 397 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 1: be like, oh, this is crazy. How can you compare 398 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 1: him that Drew Brees. Drew Brees top of the second round, 399 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: because that was my first that was my first draft. 400 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: Michael Vick goes one, he goes thirty two, he comes 401 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,239 Speaker 1: top of the second round, and we've seen the kind 402 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 1: of career that he's had now. He has some struggles 403 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: early in San Diego, but once he figured it out, 404 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: he's been a really, really good player, especially under a 405 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: play call that really understands his game. I think with 406 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield, Baker Mayfield does a great job of what 407 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: I call connecting the dots. He gets the ball out, 408 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: he gets it to his playmakers. At Oklahoma a season ago, 409 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: when he had DDI Westbrook and all the other weapons, 410 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 1: he looked like an outstanding player. He looks really really 411 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: good this year as well. If he goes to the 412 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: right situation, if he goes to a team that understands 413 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 1: how to utilize his talents, I think he can be 414 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 1: a player. And then to comp Harrison did, I will 415 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: make and I'm gonna throw out there early. He kind 416 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: of reminds me of Jeff Garcia. Jeff Garcia was a 417 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 1: little bit of an underside you didn't really know, but 418 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: multiple time Pro Bowl I had a lot of success 419 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: in the league. I think Baker Mayfield can play the 420 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: game in dead fashion. Yeah, it's it's it's fascinting. He's 421 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: gonna be interesting. One another quarterback, a West Coast quarterback 422 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: over the weekend, did not have a good weekend. Was 423 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 1: having a great year. Luke Falk Washington State goes down 424 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 1: to Cal thirties seven to three. He has no touchdowns, 425 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 1: five picks. It was a rough, rough go of it 426 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: there for Luke Falk also fumbled a couple of times 427 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: lost one of them. Talked to Scott was at the 428 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: football game and said, you know, look, I'm not making 429 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: excuses for the kid. I'm not doing it, but just 430 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: it was a bizarre atmosphere at this game. It's a 431 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: Friday night game coming and you're coming off of uh, 432 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: you know, a team that is six and oh, but 433 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: they go on the road. They had the fires up 434 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: in northern California, so there was some doubt about whether 435 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: they're gonna play this football game or not. He said, 436 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,160 Speaker 1: Cal came out there pretty much did their regular warm up. 437 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: Washington State just came out there a little bit before 438 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: the game, didn't get a full warm up in and 439 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 1: it was kind of half speed. I don't know if 440 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,719 Speaker 1: it was I'm sure it's because of the air quality. 441 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: I don't I didn't read anything about this, but he 442 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: said it was bizarre that this team just didn't There 443 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: was no they didn't have their normal routine. They just did. 444 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 1: They came out, they weren't ready to play. They didn't 445 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: show up, and they got whitewashed by Cow in that 446 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: football game. So he wasn't giving Luke Falk a pass. Said, Look, 447 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: he didn't play good, no question about it, but there's 448 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: still a lot of love in scouting circles for him. Now. 449 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: I have people have a prominent uh college football broadcasting 450 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 1: does a lot of these games and we're going back 451 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: and forth via text. He doesn't see it with Luke 452 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 1: Falk questions is his size and questions they're just the 453 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: top end arm strength that he has, which I don't 454 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: think he has a huge arm. I was told, I know, 455 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,199 Speaker 1: over the summer or over the spring, wan Scouts went 456 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 1: through their way to twenty one. I was told he's 457 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: now closer to to thirty. He carries it differently because 458 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: you would never guess that, and looking at him, he's 459 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: gonna be six three and change about two d two 460 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty pounds. I don't think the size is 461 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: gonna get him. I haven't seen him. Have you seen 462 00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: him throw a live? I haven't seen him throw live. 463 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 1: I haven't seen him through a lot. When I watched 464 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: him on tape, I just gave him he's got no jump. 465 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: There's no jump on him, plus B minus. I wasn't 466 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 1: over the impressed with his arm strength in his arms town, 467 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 1: and I felt like a lot of things that he 468 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: did happened kind of in between that box, like inside 469 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: the numbers from that ten to fifteen yard range. Look, 470 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: I think he's a good player. Everyone tells you his 471 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,360 Speaker 1: intangibles off to charts. Um At the quarterback position. Scouts 472 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: rave about him, but I mean, I think he's okay. 473 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:26,880 Speaker 1: He's not someone I would necessarily be fried up about 474 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: if he was a potential franchise quarterback that we were 475 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: looking at. How about him? The interesting debate with a 476 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: lot of people is when you talk about him, um 477 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: and you talk about going down to Mason Rudolph at 478 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State and comparing those two guys, I think they're 479 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: in a competition Joscelyn for position, maybe with a Baker 480 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: Mayfield in that next rung after the big I would say, 481 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see who all ends up coming out. 482 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: But when you look at at Sam Donald, Josh Rosen, 483 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: and even Josh Allen, I think those guys have kind 484 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: of established themselves right up there at the top. And 485 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: then Lamar Jackson being the ultimate wild card man. I 486 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: think he is the ultimately still playing great this year, 487 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 1: He's been great and not very good. Yeah, team is 488 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: not good. He's having to do everything, and Biby Petrino 489 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: quickly abandoned that whole thing. I'm gonna develop him like 490 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: an NFL. I'm gonna let him run around and make plays. 491 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: I think the big thing will be who becomes fascinated 492 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: by the sheer, athleticism and talent that you could work with. Um. 493 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: I think the team that really takes a chance on 494 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 1: the Lamar Jackson is a team that has a quarterback 495 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: already in place, maybe an athletic quarterback already in place, 496 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: where you can kind of have the luxury you're really 497 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: taking your time to develop him. You don't have to 498 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: restaurant to the field. One other point before we move 499 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: on here, talking to another personnel guy, he brought up 500 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: a great point talking about the the process. Now it's 501 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: it's been stretched out, used to be. Okay, let's watch 502 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 1: the seniors and then at the end of the day 503 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: we'll see what juniors come out, and we'll start looking 504 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: at now at the quarterback position. These guys come in 505 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: at freshman, you're taking your notes on him, you're studying, 506 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: you're following them through the entire process to see where 507 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: they are. He brought up a great point. He was 508 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: actually talking about the Oregon quarterback we talked to it. 509 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: Pack told Media Day Herbert, right, Herbert, justin Herbert, big 510 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: kid with huge hands, tall along He said, this is 511 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 1: the problem. You get a guy like that who could 512 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: be developed into being just a pure pocket passer. He's 513 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: got all the ability in the world. But he said, 514 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: because he's mobile enough, they incorporate him in the run game. 515 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: And he said he doesn't know how to protect himself. 516 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: He's getting the crap kicked out of him now, he's 517 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: missing games. He said, So some of these quarterbacks the 518 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: college game because of the run game, they have unnecessary 519 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: mileage on some of these kids. When they get into 520 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: the leak, they're they're already beat up. Yeah, I mean, 521 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: I think it's a dilemma. It's a dilemma for college coaches. 522 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: Um obviously because they're not necessarily developing quarterbacks with the 523 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: game pro game. But you have to sprinkle him in 524 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: enough but not do it too much. And I think 525 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: the NFL has shown a blueprint with these athletic quarterbacks 526 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: on how to do it and protect them. If you 527 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: notice when you watch Marcus Mariota, Deshaun Watson, Dak Prescott, 528 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 1: most of their running occurs in the red zone, so 529 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: they run to score or occasionally on a third down situation, 530 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: they'll pull it to go around the corner and they 531 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: hit right to the sideline. And so I think there's 532 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 1: there's a way to incorporate that. It's you don't major 533 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: in it, you minor in it, and you find a 534 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: way to allow those guys to utilize their ath. So 535 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: the other one he was talking about young quarterbacks was 536 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 1: a Texas kid, Oh Ellinger, who is Sam Ellinger, who 537 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: is a big, strong kid of swag. But he carried 538 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: the ball two times against Oklahoma. He's like, I don't 539 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: care how big you are, they're just getting beat the crap. Yeah, 540 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: funny story about that kid, Ellinger. He was two years 541 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: ago at the opening my team won the championship. I 542 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: was helping out on offense and defense. We played them. 543 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: I forget who their story was. He was the second 544 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: team quarter He comes in the second half. I mean, 545 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: we're blowing the doors. I forgot two or two like, yeah, 546 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: we're smoking him, right. So he comes in the second 547 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: with those couple of touchdowns and after the game, you know, 548 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: when you're shaking hands, he was like, you're gonna be 549 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: glad I didn't play the first half. Oh huh. I 550 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: took note of that because now when I see the 551 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: kid what he has and we'll hear this in the conversation. 552 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 1: He has a little bit of that dude factor. Um, 553 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: there was a post that circulated on Twitter when he 554 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: was going in the tunnel after the game and they 555 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 1: talked about him throwing up to hook him. Horne signed 556 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: after that loss. But it was revealing because he just 557 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 1: gets it. He's a competitive dude. He loves it. It'll 558 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 1: be interesting to follow him. But when we talk about 559 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 1: the in fact and what people have, he kind of 560 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: has some of that that stuff that you look for 561 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 1: at the position. That's Uh, it's interesting that you bring 562 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 1: that up because that's something we're gonna get into here. 563 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: This is our interview we had just a little bit 564 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: earlier with James Franklin, the head coach at Penn State. Bucky. 565 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: One of the cool things we're doing this year nfl 566 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: dot Com. Every week we're profiling a different athlete to 567 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: take one of our talent writers. We sent him out 568 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: to get the goods and get all the background information 569 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: on one of the top players in college football. This week, 570 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 1: Kim Jones went back to Penn State where she attended 571 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: and and did a feature on se Kwon Barkley. That's 572 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: outstanding and I couldn't be more excited than to welcome 573 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: our next guest head coach at Penn State in his 574 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: fourth year, James Franklin chat a little bit about Sae 575 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 1: Kwon Barkley and this and this Penn State football team coach. 576 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: First of all, thank you so much for joining us. 577 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: The first question I have for is is when did 578 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: you know in the process, Maybe it was through recruiting 579 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: or when he got on campus, was sa Kwon Barkley 580 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: that you had something special? Well, first of all, put 581 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: put the graphic of s Kwon back on the modelor 582 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 1: nobody wants to look at my you know Kwon. You 583 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: know what I got the job. Sa Quon was committed 584 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: to Rutgers, and um, you know, we we identified him 585 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 1: as a guy that we didn't really want leaving the state. 586 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: At that time. We knew he was a good back. 587 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: I was gonna have a nice, big ten career. I 588 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: wouldn't necessarily say that, we you know, thought he was 589 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: gonna be what he is today obvious lee. Um, But 590 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 1: then I will tell you this. He committed us and 591 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: then his senior year he had a special senior year. 592 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: You know he started, uh you know the hurdling thing 593 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 1: that he does. Now. It's funny because is after you 594 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: graduating he said, Coach, I'm not I'm not gonna hurdle 595 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,880 Speaker 1: guys anymore. Um, you know, I'm not. I'm not gonna 596 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: do that anymore. I said, that don't really make a 597 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: whole lot of sense to me, because in high school 598 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: in the state of Pennsylvania, it's illegal, and in college 599 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: it's legal. So I'm like, it doesn't make sense that 600 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: you'd stop doing it now when when it's actually legal 601 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: doing college. You know. But um, he's kind of like 602 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: I describe him like, you know, Frankenstein running back, Like 603 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: if you had to choose all the qualities you were 604 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: looking for to build it back, he's got him. He's 605 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: got the body type you're looking forward. It's got the intelligence, 606 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: he's got the leadership. Um, you know, he's got the speed, 607 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: to quickness to power. He can you know, catch them 608 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: all out of the backfield. I think that's what makes 609 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: him special is the combination of traits that he has, 610 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 1: not one thing that you get mesmerized about, but just 611 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: a combination of all the different traits. You know, Coach, 612 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: he can be a one man show at times. His 613 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 1: ability to do so many things as you described, how 614 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: do you harness that as as a play caller, How 615 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: do you get your play caller to make sure we 616 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: want to feature si Quan and so many different facets 617 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: to really maximize his talent on the field. But I 618 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 1: think for us, you know, we're a true RPO team. 619 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: So you know, when he carries the ball in the 620 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: running game, he's carrying it into a pretty good look 621 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: because we're usually reading some defender, whether it's a d 622 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: N linebacker, safety, whatever it may be. UM, So that helps. 623 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: So you know, we're not like a pro style offense 624 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 1: that you see UM, where guys we're just gonna hand 625 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: the ball off to him and run power down people's throats. 626 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: So we've had a bunch of games where you know, 627 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: he doesn't necessarily touch the ball, you know, especially as 628 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: a runner um. You know, maybe in the first you know, 629 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 1: two series of the game. But we also realize that, 630 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: you know, he's a difference maker and we need to 631 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 1: get the ball in his hands. So we have a 632 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: lot of different ways to do it as a receiver, 633 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: as a kickoff return guy in a traditional in in game, 634 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: you know. And I think that's what also helps our 635 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: offense and helps our team is that you know, we 636 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 1: can use them so many different ways, so it's hard 637 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 1: to game plan, you know, to completely eliminate him from 638 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: a game. You can obviously limit his impact when you're 639 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: run of the one back offense that can always overload 640 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: you in the box, but you create other opportunities for us. 641 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: So that's where I would make the argument he's the 642 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: most valuable player in college football. And there's no doubt 643 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 1: he's the most exciting. I mean, he's made some plays. 644 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: I've been doing his twenty three years at every level 645 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: including the NFL, and he's made some plays that just 646 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: you know, even me, my, my my mouth is wide 647 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: open watching some of the things that he's able to do. Yeah, 648 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: I had a front row seat at the Rose Bowl 649 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: last year and saw just what he was capable of. 650 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: He was outstanding and that in that football game. Coach, 651 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: everybody that I talked to that's rolled through their scouts 652 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: and different people close to the program say, as good 653 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: as this kid is on the field, uh, he's exceptional 654 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: off the field in terms of in the locker room, 655 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: his leadership, and just personality wise. Everybody raised about this kid. 656 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: Is there a story about him and you could share 657 00:28:58,080 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: with us that lets us know a little bit more 658 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: about say Kwon Barkley, the kid. You know, I don't 659 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: know if I would say, you know, one specific story. 660 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: It's it's kind of just a combination of examples of things. 661 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: You know, from a football perspective, He's never once asked 662 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: for the ball more. UM. You know, whenever he gets 663 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: an opportunity to praise his teammates, that that's what it's 664 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: all about. It's always about the team, not about him. UM. 665 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: In the community, he's the guy that we have to 666 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: pull away at the end of the game because they'll 667 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: stay out there for an hour and a half. UM 668 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: after the game, signing autographs with kids and taking pictures. 669 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: You know, this weekend, during our bye week, he went 670 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: back to his community and went to elementary school and 671 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: talked to kids. UM. You know, whenever we have any 672 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: community service projects, he's the first one in line. He 673 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: just gets it. He's a guy that's really embraced the 674 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: whole collegiate experience academically, athletically, socially, spiritually, UM, and has 675 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: taken advantage of all the resources and opportunities. So you know, 676 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: he's he's a special guy and I'm really proud of him. UM. 677 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: In so many ways, and and probably more so than 678 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: than what he's been able to do from a football perspective. Hey, coach, 679 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: he came up to the opening which was held at 680 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: Nike Headquarters, and he had opportunity to work out with 681 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: Tom Shaw and a bunch of great UH college athletes, 682 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: and Tom Shaw told me that he's one of the 683 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: most explosive athletes that he's ever seen in terms of 684 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: his strength, of power, his speed. Um, talk about what 685 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: you see when he's away from the field, when he's 686 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: going through offseason workouts are in the weight room. How 687 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: diligent of a work is he, What kind of special 688 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: athlete is he? Well, he sets the tone for our 689 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: whole organization. I mean literally, we stopped kind of testing 690 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: him on testing day because you know, at some point, 691 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: you know how much you're squatting and how much your 692 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: power cleaning and benching. You know you've proven the point, 693 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 1: all right, you know we don't need to do anymore. 694 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: But he's such a competitive guy. He gets in there 695 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: and everybody's you know, Max testing and he wants to 696 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: jump in as well. But you know, um, you know, 697 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing is when you see him 698 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: in person and you look at his lower body from 699 00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: his waist down. It's freakish. I mean it really he is. Um, 700 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: you're talking about a guy who's gonna run, uh for 701 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: three and I don't really believe four three guys exists, 702 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 1: but but he's gonna run for three. Um. You know, 703 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: he's one of these guys. Whatever you put on the bar, 704 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: he'll bench squad or power clean. Um. You know, he 705 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: just he's really really gifted. He really is in so 706 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: many different ways. I mean he's throwing a touchdown pass, 707 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: he's got touchdown receptions. Uh. He's a guy that you could, 708 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: you know, use like a Marshall Falk and line him 709 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: up as a wide receiver in a slot. That's something 710 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: I talked to him about for the last two years 711 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: in the summer that, you know, something that he really 712 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: needed to work on, whether we were gonna use him 713 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: at that or not, because it's gonna be important for 714 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 1: his future. You know, he's just he's a he's a 715 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: hard working guy who gets the big picture and understands, 716 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: you know, what we're trying to do from a team perspective. 717 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: But he also, you know, understands the impact that's gonna 718 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: have on his future as well. Coach. We we got 719 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: plenty there on on Kwan. We can't wait to watch 720 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: him this week. And I want to ask you a 721 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 1: couple of questions as we look at the bigger picture 722 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: here with your foot A program sitting here, a number 723 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: two in the country, and you've got Michigan, Ohio State, 724 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: and Michigan State coming up, does it get any better 725 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: than this life right now for you in college football, 726 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: sitting where you are, the challenges you've got in front 727 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: of I think game days coming out there this weekend. 728 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: Just how cool is your life right now getting ready 729 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: for all these challenges. Well, it'd be a lot cooler 730 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: if the conference broke those three games of it. You 731 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: know that that's why you play big time football. That's 732 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 1: why you know, come to a place like Penn State 733 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: for these challenges. You know. Um, you know, i'd make 734 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: the argument that our division, our side of the conference. 735 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: You know, you can make argument, you know, maybe the 736 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: best in college football. You've got Penn State, Michigan State, 737 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: Ohio State, and Michigan all on the same side of 738 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: the conference. So it's it's impressive. Um, you know, but yeah, 739 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: you know it's funny because we're ranked number two in 740 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 1: the country as a player, as a coach. You know, 741 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: I've never been a part of an organization rank that high. 742 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: And you know, you know, I I guess part of 743 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 1: me thinks, you know, that I would feel differently, but 744 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: I don't. I still wake up every single learning early 745 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: come in the office. I'm concerned about, you know, getting 746 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 1: our guys prepared and eliminating distractions and and and getting better. 747 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: You know. So I don't really feel any different, um 748 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: as an organization or as a head coach. You know, 749 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: in some ways, I think a lot of these things 750 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: are distractions. So I think that's one of the most 751 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: important jobs that a head coach has, is eliminating distractions 752 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: for his staff and for his players. Um. And you 753 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: look last weekend in college football. That's why college football 754 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: is so exciting. You know how many ranked teams got 755 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: upset last week? You know. So, um, you know, we 756 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: want to learn from those things, We want to grow 757 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: from those things. We got a pretty mature football team, 758 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: and the most important thing we can do is go 759 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: out and maximize today and have the best meetings and 760 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: practices we possibly can. So come Friday, we can put 761 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: our head on the pillow and feel really comfortable about 762 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: our preparation. Coach. Last question from mean Bucky and myself 763 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: are renambered with the quarterback position and all the coaches 764 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: we have on we like to hit him with the 765 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: same question. You got a good quarterback there and Trace McSorley. 766 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: But when when you're on the recruiting know you're looking 767 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,959 Speaker 1: at quarterbacks, if you had to just limit it right 768 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: to the very most important thing, the most important trait 769 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 1: you're looking for in that position, what is it for you? Well, 770 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: you know I played the position, I've coached a position. 771 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 1: Coach Moorehead does a great job, you know, for us. 772 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: I think the ultimate thing is a winner. And I 773 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: know that sounds obvious, but you look at Trace McSorley, Um, 774 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: I think his record was something like fifty and five 775 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: in high school. They went to four straight state championships. 776 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,879 Speaker 1: He wanted in ninth grade, one of the tenth grade, 777 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 1: one of the eleventh grade, twelfth grade he took him 778 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 1: to the state championship. I think the status him and 779 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 1: Alan Iverson were the only two quarterbacks in the in 780 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: the history of the state of Virginia to take their 781 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: teams to four straight state championships. So there's just something 782 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: about it. You know. A lot of guys can win 783 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: a state championship maybe one year, uh, for a lot 784 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: of different reasons. But you don't take your team to 785 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: four straight without having something to you. Uh. Tracy is 786 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: gonna walk in the room. He's not gonna pass the 787 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: eyeball test. He's not six three, two hundred and twenty pounds, um. 788 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: But he he's got the it factor, the thing that 789 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: we've all as coaches and as analysts been trying to 790 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: figure out what that is. Um, you know since the 791 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 1: beginning of time. He's got it, you know, UM. And 792 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: for us that that's kind of what I look for 793 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: on the on the trail is is finding a guy 794 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,799 Speaker 1: that has a lot of the traits. I think one 795 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,840 Speaker 1: of the big mistakes that people make is they find 796 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: a guy that is really big or really fast, You've 797 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: got a really strong arm, or one trait that you 798 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: get really caught up in where I think your your 799 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,359 Speaker 1: odds are better if you find a guy that does 800 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: a lot of things well rather than one or two 801 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: traits that just blow you away. And that's that's what 802 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: Trace has. Except for the eyeball test, he's got all 803 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:43,240 Speaker 1: the other things necessary. Coach. That's an outstanding a thoughtful 804 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: answer there. We've collected a bunch of information from coaches 805 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: that might be the best one we've got on the 806 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,320 Speaker 1: quarterback position. Hey, best of luck this week, Best of 807 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 1: luck in the stretch you're getting ready to go on. 808 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: It's great to see Penn State back up there in 809 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 1: the national conversation.

I thought the stuff on st kon Barkley 819 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: was outstanding, but I I took away the biggest thing 820 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: for me. I'm so enamored by what these coaches look 821 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 1: for in the quarterback position, and I thought he was 822 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: very eloquent in describing what he's looking for very eloquent 823 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: in describing what he was looking for.

We need to create a drop for role 840 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 1: play because I want to make this something that we 841 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 1: do every week here. So you don't even know the 842 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: role that I have for every week every week.

We have USC traveling to 850 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: take on Notre Dame. Now, these two programs, buck, as 851 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 1: you know, compete for a lot of the same kids. 852 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: Notre Dame comes to California a lot, and they come 853 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: after a lot of the same kids and they recruit them. 854 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: So this weekend, I'm sure Notre Dame is gonna have 855 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: a bunch of their top recruits in campus to check 856 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 1: out the game, and a lot of these kids are 857 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: gonna also be getting recruited by you to see.

However, 868 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 1: I'm worried about your long term development as a young 869 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: man beyond what happens in football, because look, you can 870 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: be a football player for four years, but that Notre 871 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: Dame family is gonna take care of you for life. 872 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 1: But coach, what about the weather, uh, the weather, cold 873 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,839 Speaker 1: weather and all that, like, it's nice, it's it's gonna 874 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: be great when you think about your parents, your grandparents. 875 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,399 Speaker 1: It is going to give you an opportunity to play 876 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: football the way it should be played. If you go 877 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 1: back and you look at all our greats, if you 878 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 1: go back and you go into our hell old hall 879 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: and you see er Procision and Jerry Faust and Dande 880 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: fine and yeah, I mean, but we're not worried about that. 881 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: We absolutely believe that the way that we played football 882 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:12,280 Speaker 1: here in front of touchdown, hey, sus and we believe 883 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: that this is the best way that you can develop 884 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 1: as a young person, playing the game where it's supposed 885 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 1: to be played.
