33
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: five star recruit, right And was it because other schools

34
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: were offering you as Like, how did that process go

35
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: with considering Purdue as a kid from Texas who's a

36
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: five star crew to I'm sure had offers from all

37
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: the big schools in Texas. You obviously wanted an A

38
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: and M. But what was that initial connection to Purdue?

39
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 3: Man? It was just in triggering man, knowing that Drew

40
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 3: Brees went there being a Texas guy, basically just like

41
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 3: the conversation with the coaching staff at the time, I

42
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,280

45
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: would talk about it and things like that. So it

46
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 3: was real cool interesting to see that, you know, like

47
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,680

50
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 3: that's why, you know, Purdue was on my radar.

51
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: That family feel. Like the game that you remember you

52
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,680

133
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: on the D line. You're you're a defensive back. What

134
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: does his presence do for that defensive unit? Just the

135
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: way that he conducts himself and he goes about his business.

136
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,440

Speaker 3: He really helps his defense, whether his own or off

144
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 3: the field. So it's good to have a guy like

00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,359
Speaker 3: that that you tried onto the field with.

146
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: All Right, last one for you, Let's say the sport

147
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,919
Speaker 1: of football never existed, it was never invented. Yeah, what

148
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,360

149
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 2: Man?

150
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 3: Honestly, like I said, I'm I was a huge basketball

151
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 3: kid growing up. I feel like I would have kept

152
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: developing my skills. I could have had a chance, definitely.

153
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 3: But people don't know. I was a pretty pretty good

154
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 3: four hundred runner. Like growing up, you know, I stopped

155
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 3: like in high school, I was on all like the

156
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 3: relays and stuff just because you know, I played football.

157
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 3: But like growing up, like the four hundred was my race,

158
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: Like from the time elementary to the time, like about

159
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 3: eighth grade, ninth grade, like running summer track, going to

160
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 3: the Jerialympics, competing and things like that. You know, really

161
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 3: really training for, you know, the four hundred growing up.

162
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 3: So I don't know, man, maybe that could have went somewhere.

163
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 3: It would have been fun to see being the Olympics someday,

164
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 3: you know, gold medalist something like that would have been cool.

165
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: So what about that event was like worked for you?

166
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 4: Man?

167
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 3: I feel like, like I love to run clearly, I

168
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 3: mean I do that for a living now, So I

169
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 3: mean just going out there and I feel like the

170
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 3: four hundred is the ultimate like competitive race because you know,

171
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 3: he got the one hundred and two hundred, but those

172
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 3: are so quick it's.

173
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 4: Just a sprint.

174
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, the four hundred is also a sprint, but it's

175
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 3: like who got the wheel to really run a full

176
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 3: lap around that track the fastest you can go, everything

177
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 3: you got. That's the true like competitive race. I mean,

178
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 3: you see guys in the Olympics, Man, I mean to

179
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 3: go out there and run forty four forty three, like

180
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 3: that's insane. Forty two I mean you're talking even seconds

181
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 3: every one hundred meter dash like that's.

182
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: I'm like the one hundred meters dash. If you hit

183
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: like ten, you're like the fastest person in the world.

184
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, Like I think the fastest time ever.

185
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, nine five six, so yeah, and it's.

186
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 3: Like you gotta think them guys are running a second

187
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 3: off of that four times.

188
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the shame.

189
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: That's crazy.

190
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 3: Like when the four hundred, like that's my favorite event

191
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 3: to watch, like whether it's college track, the Olympics pre trials, whatever,

192
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 3: Like I'm tuning in to the four hundred because it's

193
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 3: just like, like I really give respect to you guys.

194
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 3: I go out there and really, you know, go and

195
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 3: get it. It's exciting to see.

196
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 1: Are college learra Overton. It's just geeking out over all

197
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: this track talk here Jalen Jones appreciate the time on

198
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: the podcast, but yeah, thank you. Here with Colts linebacker

199
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: Shai Gua Loubi. You're an undrafted guy. Yeah, how has

200
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: that shaped your career? Having to work your way up

201
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: from you know, not hearing your name called.

202
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's awesome, man.

203
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 6: I get to share the gift of gratitude with all

204
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 6: my teammates, you know, like it's just one of them

205
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 6: things that you understand every day when you walk in here.

206
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 6: It was never something I was a guarantee for you.

207
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: How is this Pacers run? Like, how how is it

208
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: shown you what Indianapolis can be involving like a sports team.

209
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 6: It's amazing to see kind of the fan support, you know,

210
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 6: from a different perspective because obviously when we're in Lucas,

211
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 6: I'm on the field, so I'm kind of locked in.

212
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 6: But getting to be amongst the people in the stadium

213
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,719
Speaker 6: chair for the Sers, you know, and and seeing the

214
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 6: run that they've been on. I mean really since I've

215
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 6: been in the league, they've been pretty good. So it's

216
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 6: kind of one of those things you get to see

217
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 6: how the city and the rest of the team.

218
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: I remember him this conversation with Zire once where like

219
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,959
Speaker 1: he's obviously a big sixers guy and like him being

220
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: a professional athlete, he was like kind of like he

221
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: was struggling to like like he wants to like be like, ah,

222
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: Joel Embiid, like what are you doing? But then he's

223
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: like I kind of know what it's like, you know,

224
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: on the other side, how do you watch a game

225
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 1: as a fan?

226
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, Phantom is kind of tough for me because at

227
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 6: the end of the day, you understand how skilled guys

228
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 6: already even get in a position where they are. But

229
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 6: I think you just kind of take it for what

230
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 6: it is, like, you know, you just measure their their

231
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 6: peers against each other and kind of just take it

232
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 6: for that.

233
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: So are you like when you go to a Pacers

234
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: game in the playoffs? Like what is that experience like

235
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: for you, Like cheering and like being a part of

236
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: the crowd and everything. Do you get kind of like

237
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: caught up in it sometimes?

238
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 2: Sometimes? Yeah, especially when the game gets good. I love

239
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 2: a great game.

240
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 6: I love that environment, whether I'm playing in the game

241
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 6: or just amongst the people. Like being in a really

242
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 6: tight game that suspense that energy, you can almost feeld

243
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 6: electricity in the air. It's some one of those things

244
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 6: that you kind of live for in those ways. So

245
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 6: that's a lot of.

246
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: Fun, same kind of question to you, But just about

247
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 1: like watching football on TV. Like I had this really

248
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: interesting conversation with Justin Wally yesterday where he was talking

249
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: about how Kenny like he studied Kenny in college, and

250
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know if he had like

251
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 1: all twenty two access or not. It turns out he did,

252
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 1: But I was like, that must be impossible to be

253
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: like a cornerback and try to watch another cornerback on

254
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: TV because like the broadcast, they're not like showing everything.

255
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, teas copy, you can't see anything.

256
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: So like when do you even watch like football on TV?

257
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: Or do you just say, like, you know, I gotta

258
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: I would rather see the all twenty two.

259
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 6: I think I do both, right, Like, I mean, I love,

260
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 6: like I said, I love watching good I love watching ball,

261
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 6: So I'll just watch a good game. But then we

262
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 6: have the ability to go on the iPad and watch it.

263
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 6: So there's plenty of times where I'll watch the game

264
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 6: live and then especially it seems that lay some of

265
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 6: the defenses, I'll go on to the iPad and watch

266
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 6: it from the twenty two, watch it from the back.

267
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 6: Do you see what they've got? What they guys are saying?

268
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: When you watch games with like friends or family members,

269
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: do like you kind of drive them nuts sometimes about

270
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: like how because you obviously know more? Yeah, and like

271
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: you know, if they're like why did this guy blow

272
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 1: this coverage? You're not like I was covered too, Yeah,

273
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 1: you know.

274
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 6: I mean I show a lot of grace in those moments,

275
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 6: you know, because I get that I don't. I'm terrible

276
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 6: a lot more, you know than other people do. So

277
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 6: I kind of just explained what's going on. Oh that

278
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 6: actually wouldn't him, you know what I mean? And I

279
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 6: think because it's so much fun for me, I don't

280
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 6: really get tired of explaining things, and I don't do

281
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 6: it in a way that's kind of like, you know,

282
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 6: kind of harsh, you know, so I don't think the

283
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 6: people around me get too mad.

284
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 2: About it either.

285
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: That's great. My wife hates watching football, yeah, because you know,

286
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: why did this guy mean it as well? Probably wasn't

287
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: a signment there. I gotta get better that at that.

288
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 6: I'm really gracious because you know, you can watch a

289
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 6: bad players tape and you end up on the tape

290
00:11:59,240 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 6: if you ain't careful.

291
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: Who is the who gives off the most dad energy.

292
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 2: On this team? Come on, man, you know you know

293
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 2: who it's for. Of course. Yeah, my mom calls the

294
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 2: forest but her dad. I'm telling you, like she say,

295
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 2: you just got you know, dad energy. So it's just

296
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 2: kind of funny to see that.

297
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, how does how does that that energy?

298
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 2: Though?

299
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 1: You know you laughing joke about it, but like, how

300
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: does that energy? What does that bring to the team,

301
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,559
Speaker 1: Like just that like that consummate professional guy's been there,

302
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: done that.

303
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, sability.

304
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 6: You need guys like that that are kind of like

305
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 6: the pillars of your team, you know, for sure, a

306
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 6: guy you can go to, a guy that kind of

307
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 6: winning things are tough. You look at him and see

308
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 6: how he's handling it, you know, and that give it

309
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 6: inspires you to keep going.

310
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: This last one for you kind of off the wall.

311
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: But let's say football never existed as a sport, what

312
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: are you playing professionally?

313
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 2: Soccer?

314
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: Okay? Did you play soccer growing up?

315
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 2: Like one year? Okay, yeah, one year, and I was

316
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 2: pretty decent. Like I think just athletically.

317
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: Would have been all right, But position.

318
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 6: Probably probably would have just been like an effort guy forward.

319
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 6: I mean, like just effort guy. I don't have great

320
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 6: touch on anything. I don't think I'm sitting in a

321
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,680
Speaker 6: midfield bit. I think they just running around people. Just

322
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 6: being aggressive upfront would be.

323
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: Probably maybe like you know, you're maybe like a false nine.

324
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: You're kind of like backing guys down and a little

325
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 1: bit yeah okay.

326
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 6: You know, yeah, probably could have been a pretty decent

327
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 6: defender too.

328
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: Huh.

329
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,079
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, that would make sense playing linebacker in

330
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: the NFL. Yeah, yeah, love it. Cool shagu Alube, appreciate

331
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: your time, man, great talking see here with Colts defensive

332
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,719
Speaker 1: tackle to Forrest Buckner. So I've been asking a couple

333
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,319
Speaker 1: of your teammates who's the most dad person on the team,

334
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: and they all have been saying you. Shagu Alube even

335
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: said his mom calls you dad because but like that,

336
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: there's something to that, Like that just steady professional energy

337
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: that you have. Yeah, over your nine years in the NFL,

338
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: what is how he maybe learned the importance of that

339
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 1: and bringing that energy to a team.

340
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, I would say I learned from one of the best,

341
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 7: Joe Staley. You know, when I was the Niners. He

342
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 7: was actually one of the vets that I even even

343
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 7: though we were in the same position group, I just

344
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 7: from afar, you know what I mean, really paid close

345
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 7: attention to how he carried his business on and off

346
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 7: the field, and you know, I just saw him he

347
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 7: was a true professional and he had a lot of

348
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 7: respect around the building. And uh, those were one of

349
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 7: some of the things that I wanted to, you know,

350
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 7: emulate a little bit and and take what, you know,

351
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 7: what he did on and off the field, and I

352
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 7: wanted to kind of, you know, do the same.

353
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: When you watch football. Let's say it's not not a

354
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: Colts game, but who do you maybe gravitate toward watching

355
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: their game? And it doesn't have to be a defensive player,

356
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: but just when you put on a highlight or you

357
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: get served on Instagram, like, who do you kind of

358
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: gravitate toward?

359
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 7: Honestly, I gravitate towards D lineman Like you know, I'm

360
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 7: obviously I'm a D liman and I love D line play.

361
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 7: So you know, anytime I'm watching the game where it's

362
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 7: a primetime game, I'm tuned into what the d Lin's doing,

363
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 7: you know, just from you know, obviously seeing how they

364
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 7: you know, some of the moves that work for them

365
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 7: and little things like that, or or just in general,

366
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 7: like I love seeing D Lion's take over a game,

367
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying. So I'm always staying tuned

368
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 7: into that.

369
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: When you watch football as a fan, or can you

370
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: watch football as a fan even like when you watch

371
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: it on TV, Like how do you consume I mean,

372
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: it's like a TV broadcast you're not getting the All

373
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: twenty two. Yeah, but like, how do you consume that

374
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 1: as someone who plays the game.

375
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's honestly, it's hard to watch football as a

376
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 7: fan because I just know it's you know, too much

377
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 7: that's going on. Yeah, you know, certain situations what they

378
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 7: should be doing and things like that, and obviously, like

379
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 7: when I'm watching them, like why would they do it?

380
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 2: You know what i mean?

381
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, little things like that or oh he's not he's

382
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 7: not supposed to do that in certain situations where it's like, oh,

383
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 7: you know, there's a great play in that situation. So

384
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 7: I'm always looking at it and watching and watching it.

385
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: Like film, right, Like how do you then when you

386
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: watch another sport? Yeah, you're watching the Pacers, You're watching

387
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: you know whatever.

388
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 7: I'm I'm a fan when it's another sport. I mean,

389
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 7: I'm I feel like a fan watching you know what

00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 7: I mean. I mean, I can like basketball, I can

391
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 7: I can kind of see certain things where, you know,

392
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 7: because I played it growing up, and so I can

393
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 7: see certain things that they do and I'm like, why

394
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 7: would he do that?

395
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 2: You know what i mean? Or But majority of the.

396
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 7: Time I'm just tuned in and I'm sharing like a

397
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 7: whole like a whole fan.

398
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: See, Like I like watching basketball because I can be

399
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: like a dumb fan watching basketball, like I watch football

400
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: and like I don't know as much as you know

401
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: you and the other players do, but like I know

402
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: enough to know, like I can't watch it and like

403
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: really get invested in basketball. I'm like dumb as right,

404
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: why did he miss that shot?

405
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: You know?

406
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 1: Like that, and that's kind of nice to have that outlet.

407
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: But I remember I was talking about this with shit Good.

408
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: But I had this conversation with Zaire. He's a big

409
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: sixers guy, and he's like, I can't get mad at

410
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: the players because I know what it takes to be

411
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: a professional. After Like when you even if it's a

412
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: sport that you don't know anything about, you know, you're

413
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 1: watching baseball or or whatever, do you still have to

414
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 1: like catch yourself sometimes knowing that, hey, these are the

415
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: elite of the.

416
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, you know what I mean.

417
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 7: Like, like I said, I get caught up sometimes like

418
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 7: as a fan, but you put yourself in those their

419
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 7: shoes and you're like, man, everybody has a bad game,

420
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 7: you know what I mean.

421
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 2: I've had bad games, you know, what I'm saying.

422
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 7: It's not that I'm a bad player, it's just it's

423
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 7: one of those It's just one of those days for

424
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 7: that player. You know what I'm saying. He had about

425
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 7: he had off day, and now I want to see

426
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 7: the next game how he responds, you know what I'm saying.

427
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 7: And that's what That's what it's all about. It's a

428
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 7: it's a marathon.

429
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: What is something about playing in the NFL that someone

430
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: who doesn't play in the NFL could never understand?

431
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 7: I would say, I mean they see all the you know,

432
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 7: obviously game days they see, they see the off season

433
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 7: when we're posting on social media for on a nice

434
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 7: trip or whatever it is. But I mean, they truly

435
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 7: don't know what it takes year in and year out

436
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 7: to go out there and perform, you know what I mean,

437
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 7: and perform at a high level.

438
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.

439
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,239
Speaker 7: They don't see the sacrifices that you make, you know,

440
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 7: spending weeks or months away from the family and the

441
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 7: off season, you know, to train and get ready for

442
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 7: the season, you know what I'm saying. So, uh, those

443
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 7: are some of the little things that I always think about,

444
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 7: Like see fans don't they think that I'm just in

445
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 7: the off season just kicking my feet up, trying to

446
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 7: play golf, you know what I mean, or fish or

447
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 7: whatever it is. And and it's the total opposite, you

448
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 7: know what I mean. Like I try to find times

449
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 7: to go do some of the stuff that I like

450
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 7: to kind of get my mind away and get a

451
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 7: little refresher, But majority of.

452
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 2: The time and we're working.

453
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,080

00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

470
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,280

474
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 7: It it's easy to get out of shape. So I

475

Speaker 4: Man, uh.

507
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,959
Speaker 2: Oh man, I gotta go deep in the archives here.

508
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 2: Let's see. Let's see, let's see, let's see. Hold on, Okay,

509
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 2: I got one for you. So this is years ago.

510
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 7: So if you don't know Grove, he lives you know,

511
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 7: down south out you know, South Georgia, and uh, you know,

512
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 7: anytime in the all, in the off season, when you

513
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 7: try to, you know, get hold.

514
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: Of him, it's impossible, you know.

515
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 7: So like you know, if you say you want to

516
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 7: call him, he might not call you back till a

517
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 7: week later, you know what I mean. So there's one

518
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 7: time I need I actually had something on my mind

519
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 7: and I have to ask Grove the question. And so

520
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 7: this is the off season, this is about this around March,

521
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 7: and I call him one day. Don't hear back from him.

522
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 7: So I'm like, oh, man, I really needed to.

523
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:46,360
Speaker 2: Ask gro this question.

524
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 7: Does it go straight to voicemail or sometimes it will

525
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 7: rings sometimes you just go straight to the voicemail, you know.

526
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 7: So I was like, he must be busy, but he's

527
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 7: also he's probably on like his zero turn mower or something,

528
00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:58,880
Speaker 7: mowing to grass or something.

529
00:20:58,880 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know.

530
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 8: And uh So about a week goes by and girls

531
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:05,200

551
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,399
Speaker 1: Though, all right, Okay, question for both of you guys.

552
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: I did this a couple of years ago, but I

553
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 1: want to bring it back. Let's say football never existed

554
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: as a sport. But you guys are great athletes. What

555
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 1: sport are you playing professionally right now?

556
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 2: I've probably be an Olympics for like a shot put discus.

557
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 1: Olympic shot put discus. I could see it, all right,

558
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 1: Did you do that in high school? Okay, you like

559
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: a Georgia like class state champion or anything.

560
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I will. I love it. For me, I'll

561
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 2: probably choose I go golf.

562
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: See you said basketball three years ago. Yeah, I know,

563
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 1: And but you're a stick now. Definitely not a stick now.

564
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: But but if I really really really put the work in, you.

565
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 8: Know, if I if I started from a young age,

566
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 8: I feel like.

567
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 2: I would have been pretty good. Yeah.

568
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, I got that good natural swing. I

569
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 7: got a lot of power behind it. I don't even

570
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 7: have to hit you know, swing that hard when I

571
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 7: do hit it right, you know what I mean. But

572
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 7: majority of the time I am swinging out of my shoes.

573
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 7: So that's that's the part where you know, I don't

574
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 7: get out as much, you know, to get out there

575
00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 7: and play what if I did.

576
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, That's what I just keep telling myself is that

577
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 1: I need to get out more for sure, and that

578
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:05,640

Speaker 7: three and a half. It was actually his idea, which

582
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 7: was great.

583
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:14,600

Speaker 1: what about just maybe like your interactions with people around town,

624
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: like involving the Pacers. Like, I know you've gone to

625
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: a couple of games, Like when they talk to you

626
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,640
Speaker 1: about the Pacers, do they also say like and hey,

627
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: you know we want we want the Colts to hit

628
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: that point too.

629
00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, for sure, you know, just like from fans

630
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 2: run into you know, we just talked about Pacers and

631
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 2: then after that, so I was like, you guys are

632
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 2: up next, you know, like seasons coming up makesure you

633
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 2: guys are ready and you know, and we're we're ready.

634
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 2: We're preparing right now when ready to go?

635
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: I mean asking a couple of guys about this. But

636
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 1: like when you go to a Pacers game, like a

637
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: PACER's playoff game, you know what it takes for those

638
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: guys to get on the court as professional athletes. Yeah,

639
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 1: do you have to like catch yourself like not getting

640
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: like frustrated or like mad at them because you know

641
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 1: they are the elite of the elite, just like you

642
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: guys are as NFL players. And it's just I don't know,

643
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 1: it's a way to kind of ask like how do

644
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 1: you watch a game as a fan?

645
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean, like for me, like I go full

646
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 2: on as a fan, okay to me, like I can't lie,

647
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 2: like I'm cause coming from like a small state, like

648
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 2: I feel like we just were big fans of like

649
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,360
Speaker 2: professional athletes. So I'm not the kind where like I'm

650
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 2: a I'm a pro athlete, where like I can't be

651
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 2: a fan of myself. But you know, I definitely respect

652
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 2: them as far as like, you know, the level that

653
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 2: they're at and stuff like that. It's just fun to see.

654
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,639
Speaker 2: It's fun the route for them. It's fun to be

655
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 2: with the other fans, you know, just be a part

656
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 2: of you know what, una just supporting our home team.

657
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: They also pace for support the Colts pretty well. I

658
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,119
Speaker 1: mean to be like Tyree dancing you know on the

659
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 1: suite with Blue like that. That's a pretty cool like

660
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 1: relationship the two teams seem to have here.

661
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think it's special, you know where

662
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 2: it's a good relationship and you know, like we're in

663
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 2: the same city, you know, not too like the states

664
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 2: are right next to each other, so it's easy for

665
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 2: us to support each other. And yeah, it's great.

666
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 1: What's a piece of wisdom maybe you've like you've gained

667
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: or you've learned or you've realized about like what it

668
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: takes to play in the NFL over your your career

669
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 1: in the NFL.

670
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 2: So Farm, I'll probably say my favorite African proverb to

671
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 2: the patient man will come all the riches of the world.

672
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 2: And that doesn't necessarily have to do with money, just

673
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 2: as far as like, you know, just trusting the process,

674
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 2: you know, sticking to what you know, and you know,

675
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 2: just you know, staying hard at work and being consistent

676
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 2: and you know everything that you want will will be

677
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 2: there for you when it when the time is ready.

678
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 2: You know, when the time comes, you'll be prepared and

679
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 2: you know you'll succeed. But you just have to you know,

680
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 2: be patient, just keep consistent with with what you're doing,

681
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 2: and you know, just trust.

682
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: How is DeForest Buckner maybe like reinforce that kind of

683
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: like when you're talking about there the presence that he

684
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 1: brings to this team.

685
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, anytime buck is out there, you know,

686
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 2: it gives everyone like an extra sense of confidence playing

687
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 2: out there. You know, we have some special players, but

688
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 2: you know, having Big Line nine out there, you know,

689
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,680
Speaker 2: for me, it kind of gives us just a unit

690
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 2: him and Big Rove out there. You know, we kind

691
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 2: of feel invincible, and you know, just seeing how he

692
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 2: prepares every single day, how he comes in, how he's consistent,

693
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 2: you know, usually one of the first in the building.

694
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 2: Attention to detail and practice, you know, and kind of

695
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 2: just instilling the idea of you know, if you're not

696
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 2: getting better, you're getting worse. So every time he goes

697
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 2: out there to practice, he's always looking to improve on something,

698
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 2: and you know he's going to year ten and just

699
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 2: seeing that, you know, because I think especially most vets

700
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 2: me more more. I mean not most vets, but a

701
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 2: lot of vets they kind of, you know, chill a

702
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 2: little bit when it comes to practice and stuff like that,

703
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 2: taking care of the bodies. But when he goes out there,

704
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 2: you know he's going and you know he wants to improve.

705
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 2: So just seeing that, seeing that from a ten year vet,

706
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 2: you know, gonna be a you know, to me, a

707
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: first battle of Hall of Famer speaking into existence. But

708
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 2: you're just seeing that from him and aspires the rest

709
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 2: of us young guys, and it inspires you know, the

710
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 2: whole team in.

711
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 1: General, even like I'm guessing probably too with just something

712
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: as simple as like a basic install on like day

713
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: one of OTA's I know, like, you know, like with

714
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 1: Lou coming in, it's probably different than you've had over

715
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. But he strikes me as

716
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: the kind of guy who, like, even if he's installed

717
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 1: this play for ten straight years, he's still gonna take notes,

718
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna run him down. Yeah, and he's gonna think,

719
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 1: you know, hey, there might be something new I can

720
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: learn from hearing us.

721
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, I would say too, Like one thing I

722
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 2: kind of peeped as we're in like the big unit meetings,

723
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 2: just even when he's talking about coveragers bucks rying that

724
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 2: because he'll know, like, all right, like if we're in

725
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 2: dis coverage, I'll have this amount of time to you know,

726
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 2: get to the quarterback or I could pull out my

727
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 2: best pass rush moved because I know I'm gonna have

728
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 2: a little more could we have sticky coverage in the

729
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 2: back end. So just seeing him have attention to detail

730
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 2: as far as like the whole scheme and knowing what

731
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 2: everyone's doing, it kind of like inspires the rest of us,

732
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 2: you know, kind of follow suit and do the same

733
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 2: as well. Just being smarter on the field, and you know, yeah,

734
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 2: he's he's just a smart dude on the like he'll

735
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 2: just see stuff and he'll help the rest of us,

736
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 2: and yeah, like a real key factor in our in

737
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:36,719
Speaker 2: our in our defense.

738
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 1: So I've asked a couple couple of your teammates, like

739
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: who gives off the most dead energy on the team,

740
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: and they've all said it's Buck.

741
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. I'll probably say Buck, and then right after that,

742
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 2: I'll probably say Grove. Yeah. Yeah.

743
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 1: I mean they're the two experienced guys in the middle.

744
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: We just kind of bring that that steadiness. I could

745
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 1: see Buck is like the Grove is like kind of

746
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 1: the goofy dad.

747
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 2: Oh yeah for sure. Yeah, come in, buzz Joe. It's

748
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 2: making fun of you. But at the same time, like

749
00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 2: he'll show you love.

750
00:29:58,840 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know.

751
00:29:59,720 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

752
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,479
Speaker 1: What's something about playing in the NFL that someone who

753
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 1: doesn't play in the NFL couldn't really understand.

754
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 2: I'd probably say, like, there's off time, but at the

755
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 2: same time, it's not really off time. It's like we

756
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 2: have an off season. But if you want to, you know,

757
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 2: be special, if you want to be elite, you're damn

758
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 2: near training all season long, You're taking care of your

759
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 2: body all year long, and you have you need to

760
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,479
Speaker 2: have to have a routine for in season, off season,

761
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 2: you know, just being attentive to like what you put

762
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 2: into your body, how you're training, how long you're training.

763
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 2: You have to factor into vacation time. Everything has to

764
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 2: be like on a schedule because once the season ends,

765
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 2: like you're on the you're on the clock. You have

766
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 2: so many so much time until we come back to OTA.

767
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 2: You have to make sure you prepare for OTAs. While

768
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 2: we're in we're getting better with the team, learning new scheme,

769
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 2: whatever it may be. And then once we break that

770
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 2: little month and have time, you're preparing again for camp.

771
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 2: And then once it begins to camp, it's like the

772
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 2: grind never stops, you know, so it's like a never

773
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 2: ending cycle. So the sacrifices, I would say first and foremost,

774
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 2: and then just like being like a real person outside

775
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 2: of you know, having the jersey on, the helmet on,

776
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 2: because you know, we have responsibility as far as like

777
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 2: wives and girlfriends and kids and stuff like that, and

778
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 2: you know, this is a real busy job where it's

779
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 2: from you know, sometimes five am to late night.

780
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: You told me your schedule out of like what your

781
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: Friday schedule was once and I was like, I genuinely,

782
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 1: I had no idea.

783
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, you know, and like when I come home,

784
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 2: it's like I go straight to sleep. And you know,

785
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 2: if you have kids, you have a partner or whatever,

786
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 2: you have to factor all that into and it's like, yeah, so,

787
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 2: I mean it's very hard. But at the same time,

788
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 2: we're blessed to be where we are. We're living the dream,

789
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 2: living on our childhood dreams, and you know, just we're

790
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 2: just blessed.

791
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 1: All right. Last one, I asked this question of couple

792
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: of years ago, but I'm bringing it back. If football

793
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: never existed, sport never existed, what are you doing professionally?

794
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: What are you playing professionally?

795
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 2: Like what sport professionally?

796
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 1: Because I mean, you're you're a really good athlete. You

797
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 1: could probably have made it in another sport.

798
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 2: So my first sport was track. I would like to

799
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 2: think I could play basketball, but I'm just I'm too short.

800
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 2: I'm six two and I'm just yeah, I don't like

801
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 2: i'd be I'd be a Josh Hart. I would be

802
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 2: oh yeah, I could be a guard, but yeah, passing

803
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 2: the ball out, I'll give you about ten points, but

804
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 2: I'm a I'm a second after guy.

805
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 1: You Okay, I think I think that would be my

806
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 1: role double yeah.

807
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if not that, man, I ran track all

808
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: the way through high school. You know. My sophomore year

809
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 2: I was drank like seventh amongst all sophomores in the country,

810
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 2: and long jump I jumped twenty two to six. I

811
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 2: was the anchor of my four by one team. You're

812
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 2: the anchor on a four by one Yeah, yes, sir.

813
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 2: And then we went to Nationals every year anchored there

814
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 2: and then yeah, man, like my like, we want to

815
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 2: stay every year. I had points and shot put, long jump,

816
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 2: one hundred meters, dash two hundred meters like I was

817
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 2: you know.

818
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 1: I was like, what do you think you would have

819
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 1: ran at the combine because there was no combining year

820
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: you came out.

821
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, uh combine for forty yard dash. Yeah. So my

822
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 2: pro day I did a four or five to two

823
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 2: at two sixty something. I was like two sixty five.

824
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: Just so our listeners and viewers know that's insane.

825
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. And then I surprised myself with the bench honestly, like,

826
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,479
Speaker 2: going through combine prep, I was only able to hit

827
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 2: like thirty on the bench. But then like pro they

828
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 2: like I just got like a shoot of like adrenaline

829
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 2: and I hit thirty six on the bench and that

830
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 2: was my pr. I was, yeah, I pr that day.

831
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: Didn't you have some legeny like three cone?

832
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 2: My three cone was six three seven, and that's like

833
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 2: that's better than most most dvs.

834
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so if only a chance to pull those

835
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,360
Speaker 1: out pretty pay. Appreciate your time, man, thanks, coming on.

836
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 2: All right.

837
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,799
Speaker 1: I'm joined by Colt's wide receiver Ashton Dueling. What year

838
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 1: is this for you?

839
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,439
Speaker 2: Now? This is year seven.

840
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: You're seven when you came out of Malone University, which

841
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 1: no longer is a football program. And if someone would

842
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: have told you you're going to be seven years into

843
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: the NFL with a very stable career, what would you

844
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: have thought in that moment?

845
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 5: I would have said, I appreciate the compliment and the high.

846
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 5: The high thought of me been crazy to think about

847
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 5: as a kid, you know, as you know, Kay, you

848
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 5: dream of stuff like this.

849
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:52,239
Speaker 2: I'm going to be doing it right now. I know.

850
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 5: I just make my family probably and everybody around me.

851
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 5: So that's that's that's one thing I do it for

852
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 5: is just for them. So I couldn't be more more

853
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 5: proud of myself and my family.

854
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 1: The odds are stacked an undrafted free agent because the team,

855
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 1: you know, they didn't commit a draft pick to you.

856
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 1: You've got to consistently prove yourself. You've done that and

857
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 1: you've earned two contract extensions from the Colts. How do

858
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 1: you kind of continue and keep that mindset, that like

859
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: undrafted mindset even in year seven to kind of fuel

860
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 1: your role and your position on this team.

861
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,879
Speaker 5: I think it just it just makes me feel feel

862
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 5: good the fact that you know, this organization believes in me,

863
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:33,239
Speaker 5: but just believing myself as well. Like you said, undrafted guys,

864
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 5: you know they kind of not to say they're to

865
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 5: behind already, but they have a little bit more, you know,

866
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 5: work to put in as far as earning their their reputation,

867
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 5: earning their role in the team. And I think for

868
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 5: me that was a mindset I kind of had, was

869
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 5: knowing that I got to come in and work every

870
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 5: day regardless of you know, where you come from or

871
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 5: what you do and who's ahead of you. Just got

872
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:51,399
Speaker 5: to put your head down to work.

873
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 1: Do you like look back in it and realize, like

874
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: I could not have screwed up like early on in

875
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 1: my career, because you know, one one mistake for an

876
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 1: undrafted free agent, You're you're out the door.

877
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 5: Sometimes, Yeah, that's that's kind of how it feels. To

878
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 5: say that's perfect is not what the case was. I

879
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 5: definitely made my shared mistakes, but to learn from that

880
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 5: is probably the biggest thing and not make that same

881
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 5: mistakes twice. Grow from them. The mistakes you made, the

882
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 5: failures and nothing but successes. So turn those failures into

883
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 5: success and then you'll you'll see yourself grow.

884
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 1: How have you viewed yourself as like a veteran and

885
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 1: like the experienced guy, whether it's in the wide receiver room,

886
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: the special teams room, you know, guy who has had

887
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: a lot of experiences in the NFL.

888
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 5: For me, I just try to come in and do

889
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 5: my job every day, knowing that more of a lead

890
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 5: by example type of guy, just going on in the

891
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 5: field and working on and off the field, doing what

892
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 5: needs to be done in the in the treatment room,

893
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 5: in the weight room, film you know, because this game

894
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 5: is is more than just just on the field. It

895
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 5: takes a lot of stuff to do outside of the

896
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 5: facility and then taking care of your body and stuff

897
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 5: like that. So for me, it was just being a

898
00:36:58,600 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 5: pro to right way.

899
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: That's something that you know, the the other stuff that

900
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: you have to do. I think it's hard to understand

901
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:08,320
Speaker 1: that if you aren't a player in the NFL. Do

902
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 1: you think do you think people get the full scope

903
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 1: of like all the work you have to put in,

904
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: the hours of treatment, the sacrifices you have to make

905
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: to even just get on the field for a practice,

906
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 1: let alone a game.

907
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 5: I don't think sometimes people don't understand that it's the

908
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 5: full time job. When I explain people that I'm in

909
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 5: the building from some days from seven in the morning

910
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 5: to you know, six o'clock at night, They're like, really,

911
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,200
Speaker 5: I have to just go to practice for a couple hours.

912
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 2: Like, no, it's it's a job.

913
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 5: Like you're there from from sun up to sundown and

914
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 5: even after that when when when you're out the building,

915
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 5: you're still working because you still got to make sure

916
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 5: you're eating right, washing film, getting the proper rest, and

917
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 5: then getting up and doing all over again.

918
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 1: The eating right part, Like, do you do you have

919
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 1: like a week in the off season where you can

920
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 1: like have like a pizza or something or like it's

921
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,919
Speaker 1: just like doesn't have to constantly be a thought of yours.

922
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 5: See, all season is definitely a time where I can

923
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,840
Speaker 5: kind of sit back and unbuckled the belt buckle to

924
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 5: slay the least and just just kind of pig out

925
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 5: for a little bit. But not too crazy though, because

926
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 5: you know, because you have to get back to working

927
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 5: out and and and getting back to that routine. But

928
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 5: there's definitely a period of time where I'm not worrying

929
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:15,479
Speaker 5: about what I'm eating.

930
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 1: Does your like does your body almost like reject it?

931
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 2: Though?

932
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 1: I mean seven years in like, because I think if

933
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,280
Speaker 1: you're if you're if I to guess if your body's

934
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: used to eating you know, lean proteins and veggies and

935
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 1: you know, complex carbs and all these things that like,

936
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 1: once you get away from that for a little bit,

937
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:31,560
Speaker 1: your body's like what are you? What are you doing here?

938
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 5: Like it's it's your body kind of you wake up

939
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,800
Speaker 5: the next morning you're like, oh, I definitely ate you know,

940
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 5: a cheeseburger and some had some French fries with with

941
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 5: with bacon and cheese on it.

942
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 2: But you know, you enjoyed the same time.

943
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 5: Your mentals like, yeah, I kind of needed that just

944
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 5: kind of sit back and relax and kind of just

945
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 5: enjoy the food.

946
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: What do you have to do to take care of

947
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: your mental in the off season, you know, outside of

948
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: maybe just saying hey, I can go out that cheese burner.

949
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 5: You know, I think for me, it's just being around

950
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,800
Speaker 5: my family. That's probably the biggest thing for me is

951
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,320
Speaker 5: I'm a big family guy. So having that time just

952
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 5: to sit back and kind of not worry about football

953
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 5: and just take vacations, go out whatever it is, just

954
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 5: have a good time and kind of just sit back

955
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 5: in the backyard and relax and then just enjoy the weather,

956
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 5: whatever it may be. Where if we're at it's kind

957
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 5: of my my sit back and relax and just enjoy it.

958
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 1: What's your aspirational vacation spot, Like, where do you want

959
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 1: to go.

960
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,800
Speaker 5: I'm a big Arizona guy. I go out to Arizona

961
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,279
Speaker 5: probably every off season, whether it's to train or just

962
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 5: to go out of vacation. Like this pass off season

963
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,840
Speaker 5: with the took some of my friends all took a

964
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 5: little vacation out the Arizona and just just good to

965
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 5: just kind of sit back and there's no beach involved,

966
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 5: but it's always hot, but the weather's not too crazy.

967
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 5: It's kind of like eighty five, nice little breeze but

968
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 5: in the summertime it gets to like one ten. But

969
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,319
Speaker 5: I still love it even though it's still one hundred

970
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 5: and ten degrees. I'm like, give it to me. I

971
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 5: don't care. It's whatever. It's the per vacation spot for me.

972
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: You're more of a mountains guy than a beach guy, I.

973
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 2: Would say, so.

974
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 5: I mean, I enjoy the water, but I'm not gonna

975
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 5: get into the beach all the time, just because you know,

976
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,239
Speaker 5: there's a lot of what they say, sharks, I saw

977
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 5: a lot of stuff. You don't know, a lot of

978
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 5: unknowns out there, you know.

979
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I feel you feel you. So my kids

980
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: take like two steps into the beach and you know,

981
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: it's like a like a like at the lake, and

982
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know.

983
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 5: There's something I don't know. You know what I'm saying,

984
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 5: like is the the ocean is too vastable. Plays we

985
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 5: haven't explored everything, so we don't know what's done at ourselves.

986
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 5: So it's for me, it's just give me a nice

987
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 5: little view atv ride a little bit, and then just enjoy.

988
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 1: It, all right. So I asked you this question a

989
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: couple of years ago, and I've brought it back just

990
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:34,479
Speaker 1: for this podcast. If football never existed, what sport would

991
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: you be doing professionally right now?

992
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 5: I think I have probably the same answer. That'd be

993
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 5: running track. Yeah, I'd be a hurdler for sure. That

994
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 5: was my sport all growing up THEYD in college as well,

995
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:47,439
Speaker 5: so I'll definitely be on the track.

996
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,760
Speaker 1: So the hurdles, what distance are you hurdling at four hundred?

997
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: So I was just talking to Jalen Jones about like

998
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: the four hundred was his event, and he's like, you

999
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:58,800
Speaker 1: got the one hundred and two hundred, those are sprints,

1000
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 1: but he's like, the four hundred, you gotta you gotta

1001
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 1: have like the mental fortitude to push through those last

1002
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 1: hundred meters.

1003
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 2: Absolutely, But he's we.

1004
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 1: Were talking about Sidney McLoughlin like in the four hundred,

1005
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,919
Speaker 1: because she's running the hurdles faster than people are running

1006
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 1: the four hundred. Flash, how do you have to like

1007
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: what is your mentality you have to be to run

1008
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: the four hundred hurdles?

1009
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 5: I mean it's pretty much like a four hundred. You

1010
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 5: gotta attack it like you gotta have the endurance of

1011
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 5: a distance runner. But the sprinter, the sprints of a sprinter,

1012
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 5: it's it's really when you said that last hundred is

1013
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 5: whatever you got left. Uh, you kind of you kind

1014
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 5: of treat that first three hundred like it's all out sprint.

1015
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 5: And then they always say, like the analogy is you

1016
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 5: get to get the monkey on your back for the

1017
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 5: last hundred meters and then just kind of whatever heart

1018
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 5: you got, you know, finish it off.

1019
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 2: But it's definitely it's not for the week, I tell

1020
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:44,360
Speaker 2: you that.

1021
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,240
Speaker 1: But the hurdle aspect of it, I can't even fathom,

1022
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,800
Speaker 1: like running that far and then also you got to

1023
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 1: jump over these things. What technique do you need to

1024
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 1: do that?

1025
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 5: For me, it was just whatever leg comes up that

1026
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 5: has to lead, that's the leg that that leads. Some

1027
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 5: guys like to try to count their steps. For me,

1028
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 5: it was just I just go just run, you know,

1029
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 5: whatever leg comes up, that's the leg I go over with.

1030
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 5: And then I think about it after the fact. I

1031
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 5: failed probably one time in my whole career in the

1032
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 5: four hundred hurdles. Wasn't happy about it, got out finished whatever,

1033
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 5: But some people got technique.

1034
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,040
Speaker 2: I just go out and run, all right.

1035
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 1: So if you're building a team of four hundred hurdles

1036
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 1: on the colts, your teammates. Who are you taking with?

1037
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 1: If you're the anchor, who you taking with?

1038
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 2: Let's see, that's a great question. I think I'll go on,

1039
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 2: why fight Kenny? Be good? Kind of good.

1040
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 5: I think Kenny has had some good injury. I probably

1041
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 5: take Kenny. Kenny my first leg, I go Alec Pearce.

1042
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 5: I know Ale can run. I got a pretty good speed.

1043
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,359
Speaker 5: I go Alec Pierce, and I go add nine. Okay, yeah,

1044
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 5: I think that'd be my three, right.

1045
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 1: I like it three. I mean you gave the DBS

1046
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,240
Speaker 1: a shout there. I did three other wide receivers.

1047
00:42:58,719 --> 00:42:58,919
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1048
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 5: I think I think Kenny will be able to hold

1049
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 5: up pretty well, and he has the endurance for it.

1050
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,720
Speaker 1: I could see that he's got the mental.

1051
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 2: Ford take to keep going.

1052
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,320
Speaker 1: Ashton Dole appreciate your time here on the podcast.

1053
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 2: Thanks m
