That's It's sort of like 15 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 2: how much audio quality is coming in for lack of 16 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 2: a better explanation. 17 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: Correct, for lack of a better explanation correct. 18 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 2: Okay, So I want people to know that if we 19 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 2: are sounding particularly clear and of high quality, that's why, 20 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,199 Speaker 2: and not just in actual tone, but what we're saying. 21 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 2: The quality has to be going up now, right, That's 22 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: how this works. 23 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: I mean we can use that as a talking point 24 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: if we want my understanding is that it all gets 25 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 1: boiled out and post anyway. 26 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 2: But I was gonna say, you're probably compressing it all. 27 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, there are a few reasons why we're gonna give 28 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: it a shot here, but hopefully, hopefully the quality is there, 29 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: both in terms of audio in terms of content. Because 30 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: full disclosure, I have no idea what we're talking about 31 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: on this show. You put a concept together. I was 32 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: doing the mysterious day job thing all day. We were 33 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: barely in communication, and you just wrote to me at 34 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: three point twenty one, all right, I've got the concept. 35 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 1: We are recording this about almost exactly an hour later. 36 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: So I'm generally very leery about you doing this to 37 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: me because we end up talking about our marriages or 38 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: something of that. 39 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: Ill right true, But at least when we do that, 40 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 2: now we music it out, we divorce, shack it out, 41 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 2: and it's only available to patreons on Forballers dot com. 42 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: So at least we set that as a new a 43 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: new template for how that works. Originally, I was going 44 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 2: to do a Q and a situation with older questions. 45 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: It's hard to explain what my plan was, but I 46 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 2: was thinking about it, and actually my middle brother Max 47 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: is in town, and we were talking earlier. He is 48 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: a big fan of the Master Class Theory the series 49 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: Theory Master Class series on. 50 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: I get like a million Instagram and social media ads. 51 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: For that, right, Like, if you want to cross over, 52 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 2: like Steph Curry, you just watch the video and boom 53 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: you have a cross to go, Steph Curry. Yeah, if 54 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 2: you want to watch really lengthy Hallway conversations or write 55 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 2: scripts with them, you just watch Aaron Sorkin and boom 56 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 2: you're able to the. 57 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 1: Two that, for some reason are served up to me 58 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: more than the others. Yeah, there's there's one dude who's 59 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: doing like profiling. I forget what the chorus is exactly, 60 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 1: but like you could tell police filing, like you could 61 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: tell someone's lying to you. 62 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: Gotcha. 63 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: I forget what that what the course topic is. And 64 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: then there's another one, Daniel Pink teaches the art of persuasion. 65 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: For some reason, I keep getting that maybe they know 66 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: how bad I am when it comes to debating you, 67 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: and so they're trying to give me The Internet's trying 68 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: to send me signs or something. 69 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 2: So but it evoked something, It sparked something. There are 70 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 2: embers in my brain now, because what is the off 71 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 2: season for everybody if not a chance for continued learning, 72 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: for self scouting and saying how do we get better 73 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: for the next season? And so Masterclass, as far as 74 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: I can tell, not a sponsor, absolutely not a sponsor 75 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: would be open to sponsorship. You and I are both 76 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 2: working on projects, untitled projects that are analogous to the 77 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: Master Class series. But I was thinking about it, and 78 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 2: I was thinking this, there's something here, as there's spring 79 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: football in summer workouts, and there are there are reasons why. 80 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 2: I mean, the one continued thing in college football is 81 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: the attention that coaches receive because they're you know, players, 82 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 2: transfer players, wash out players, go pro players, exhaustral eligibility. 83 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: But the one consonant in the way that perhaps pro 84 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 2: athletes are in their sports in our sport is coaches. 85 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 2: And I don't want to rank coaches. Everybody ranks coaches 86 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 2: every offseason, and they pretend like, well, we have to 87 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 2: do this, we have to got to we gotta say 88 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 2: Kirk Parents is criminally underrated. You know, every single April 89 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 2: or whatever that these pieces come out, I don't want 90 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 2: to talk about that. I don't want to rank coaches 91 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: because you know, it's all all nonsense. But what I'm 92 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,239 Speaker 2: fascinated to do with you is, there's a reason why 93 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: fair or not good or not whatever, why college football 94 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 2: head coaches have ascended to the position that they have 95 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 2: ascended to, whether it's on field coaching acumen, whether it's recruiting, 96 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: whether whatever it is, or if it's it's more abstract, 97 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: you know, it's an ability to convince the world this, 98 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 2: it's an ability to convince players this. There's a reason 99 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: why these coaches are where they are, good or bad. 100 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:05,679 Speaker 2: What I want to do is I want to review 101 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: a number of coaches and figure out what their very 102 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 2: specific master class topic would be within the world of 103 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: college football coaching. Oh okay, so I'll give you an 104 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: example of what I'm thinking. 105 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: You just came up with this at three twenty one. 106 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 2: Yes, I did. Well. My brother is he's a huge fan. 107 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 2: He watches he watches science ones, he watches sports ones 108 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 2: and cooking ones. And I think he watched a poker 109 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 2: one with Daniel mcgroney. What what's like whatever that guy's are. 110 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: I need to look up this one that I that 111 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 1: I keep getting served so that I'm yeah. So they 112 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 1: we'll get out here on it, but. 113 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 2: It sounds like a cool product. And again they're not 114 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 2: saying a cent. 115 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: Wasn't your dad really into these two? 116 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 2: So my dad is into something similar. My dad's into 117 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 2: something called the Great Courses, in which he watches notable 118 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: college professors teach classes about like art history or music 119 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: appreciation or the Civil War or whatever. So it's it's similar, 120 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 2: but I think Masterclass is more practitioners, and he has 121 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: watched a lot more professors. So instead of Chris Voss 122 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: teaches the art of negotiation, him and Daniel Pink are 123 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: all over my social media feed. I think people are 124 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 2: super into it. As far as I can tell, I 125 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 2: think it's a successful company. But so here's my example. 126 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 2: Like if I were to ask you, like, what is 127 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: the master class that Nick Saban could likely teach? 128 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: He could teach a bunch of them. 129 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: Right, of course he could. But like, I think the 130 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: overarching thing of like, what is the thing that Nick 131 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 2: Saban has mastered, and that is the ability to adapt? 132 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 2: That is the ability to adapt to recruiting, the ability 133 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 2: to adapt to coaches, leaving the ability to adapt to 134 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 2: various styles coming into and out of football. He is 135 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: always sort of he's not all that stubborn he is, 136 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 2: you know, has the ability to sort of go like 137 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 2: microscopic and day by day and pay attention to details. 138 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 2: But I think adaptation, how to adapt to modern times, 139 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 2: how to stay ahead of the curve, how to not 140 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 2: get lazy, how to understand what's happening around you, that's 141 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: Nick Saban's mastery, right. If it were to boil down 142 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: to anything. 143 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, I mean the first thing 144 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: that comes to mind on the field is obviously defense, 145 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: defensive backs, like that's sure, that's that's part of how 146 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: we can think about it more in a more abstract 147 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: way as well. Yeah, I mean that's part of how 148 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: he's made his hay. But with him being the legend 149 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: that he is having had so much success, yeah, it's 150 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: absolutely got to be something broader like adaptation in the sport. 151 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: And look, it's a story every year, it's a theme 152 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: every year. His staff rolls over. It's not like losing 153 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: one or two guys. He loses a lot. Last year 154 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: before the season he was pretty much rebooting. So for sure, 155 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: I think the art of adapt. 156 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 2: Is once again. He lost a ton of assistants this year. Yeah, absolutely, No, 157 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 2: it's adaptation and like and like, we could go to 158 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 2: Clay Helton. What is the master class of Clay Helton? 159 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: I think remaining anonymous submid a very visible profession in sports. 160 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean anonymity is one thing. But Hudson News 161 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 2: test right, Well, it's the Hudson News, but it's also 162 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: Clay Helton has a master class of one hiring an 163 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: agent to negotiate a contract with an enormous buyout in 164 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: uncertain financial times for USC. But also his mastery is 165 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 2: in he's a likable person. He is he is a 166 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: likable person by all accounts that if we don't want 167 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: to pay a buyout, and if he is somebody who 168 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 2: has achieved some level of success at USC, they won 169 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: a rose bull in a memorable game against Penn State. 170 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: It's his ability to put those in charge of him 171 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 2: at ease with him as a human. Because if from 172 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 2: from a business standpoint, sure, we can't put a course 173 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 2: out on our coach masterclass website with how to be likable? Well, 174 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 2: isn't that what's the win friends and influence people? Isn't 175 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 2: that a thing? Isn't that like from the forties or 176 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: thirties or something, It's a thing. 177 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 1: Okay, So when to reboot that with Clay Helton? 178 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 2: I think there is some thing to that, and there 179 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 2: are people what people ascend through every industry. I mean, 180 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 2: there's always going to be the politics of something, but 181 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 2: people ascend through industries. And I thought he was a 182 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 2: pretty good offensive coordinator, and I thought he was a 183 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: steadying hand when things got pretty volatile at USC behind 184 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 2: the scenes, and that's something they needed. But there is 185 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 2: an element to somebody keeps getting promoted, Somebody works their 186 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: way up up a corporation because or the military, whatever 187 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 2: it is, because they just get along with people. They're 188 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 2: just like somebody that you want to be in a 189 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: meeting room, somebody you want to go to an off 190 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 2: site with. There is that element to Clay Helton where 191 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 2: and you know, he fails the Hudson News tests in 192 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: terms of being recognized. But on that flight, on that 193 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 2: ensuing flight, if you happen to sit next to Clay Helton, 194 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 2: he'll be like, what do you do for a living? 195 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 2: Two kids? 196 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: Oh? 197 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 2: That's what an age? He's that guy? 198 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's okay, so this is very intriguing. 199 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: I'm thinking. So we're with me here, Dabo Sweeney subtitle 200 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: the art of building a winning team and this. 201 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 2: Is this is a post colon is what you're doing. 202 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: I'm doing a little subtitle action here. It could really 203 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: be more dramatic with it. Dabo Sweeney has obviously built 204 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: a winning team on the field, built the dynasty with 205 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: his bare hands at a place where there wasn't one previously. 206 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: But one of the most well known stories that we've 207 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: unpacked countless times with our friend Andy Staples is what 208 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: Dabo did when he first took over at Clemson. It 209 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: was not enriching himself. It was taking a little bit 210 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: of a lesser salary to try and surround himself with 211 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 1: really good coaches, really good assistants that could help elevate 212 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: the overall health of the program. He's done that, and 213 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: he has retained a lot of those guys over time. 214 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: In Preventables, right, We've we've talked about that situation countless times. 215 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: I think he could probably bring a really interesting perspective 216 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: on how to assemble the part it's around you to 217 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's targeted at new managers, middle managers. 218 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: How do you build that team around you fill in 219 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: the complementary parts to help elevate a program. 220 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 2: There's something there. There's something there. I think we can 221 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 2: we can drill a little bit deeper than that in 222 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 2: terms of what is the reason that Dabbo has had 223 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 2: the success he's had at a place that traditionally in 224 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 2: the modern era had a clearly capped ceiling. What is 225 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 2: it about Dabbo that I mean, you can go back 226 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: to when he was hired, but there's something about Dabbo 227 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 2: being all things to all people. 228 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: Didn't he didn't he build a ball pit in the 229 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: Clemson facilities with. 230 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 2: His bare hands, Like the ballpit. 231 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: Really does go a long way with today. 232 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe mini golf something, yeah, mini golf. 233 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was something there. 234 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 2: A slide, No, there there is something about being all 235 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 2: things to all people where he is that public aw 236 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 2: shucks guy, and then on the recruiting trail, on the field, 237 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 2: in hiring practices, there is that killer that he also 238 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 2: needs to be. There is that? I mean, it's an 239 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: adaptability in a different way, I would say, because I 240 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,599 Speaker 2: don't think he's built exactly like Nick Saban, but I 241 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: think you remember that old I maybe even references on 242 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 2: the show before because it's such a funny sketch when 243 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 2: Phil Hartman played Ronald Reagan on SNL where when the 244 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: cameras rolling he's he's just like, well, I don't know, 245 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 2: I mean super slick, and then the cameras go off 246 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: and he goes back to the war room. He's like, 247 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 2: we're gonna kill them all. There is something about that 248 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: Phil Hartman Ronald Reagan impression on SNL to Dabbo, where 249 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 2: he is portraying himself as what people want to see 250 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 2: from him publicly, and this is no different than basically 251 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 2: any other coach. He just happens to be exceptional at it. 252 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 2: And then I think behind closed doors there's nothing ah 253 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 2: shucks about. 254 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: Him to clearly say is a two fit. 255 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 2: But I'm not. I'm not doing that in a pejorative way. 256 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,719 Speaker 2: I don't. I'm not attempting to anyway. I think he's 257 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 2: I think that's a very good skill to have. I 258 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 2: think almost like a political skill. 259 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: I think what about the art of compartmentalization. 260 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 2: I think that's something there. I think there's something there. 261 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, being able to segment off different aspects of your 262 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 1: personality and deploy each one you need to. 263 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, that's true, there's something there as well, all right, 264 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 2: He knows his audience. He absolutely always knows his audience. 265 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: You tell me, where do you want to go? You 266 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 2: want to go a lesser name, Well, I want to 267 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 2: go back, I want to go I want to. 268 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 1: Go Matt Campbell. Okay, I think Matt Campbell's interesting because 269 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: Matt Campbell's building it. He's clearly built well, I shouldn't 270 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: say he's building a dynasty, but he's definitely building momentum. 271 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 2: I mean, in terms of clone terms, we're in the 272 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 2: midst he is building serious momentum at Iowa State. He's 273 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 2: perpetually rumored to go elsewhere, but at least up to date, 274 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 2: he's stayed put. 275 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: He's going to continue building what he started. Names I 276 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: could go a number of different directions with him. I mean, 277 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: the thing that, the most obvious thing that I think 278 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: comes to mind when we think of this is Matt 279 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: Campbell knows how to optimize production because he is not 280 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: getting the cream of the crop from a recruiting standpoint, 281 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: yet he is finding a way to be like crazy 282 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: competitive against the best in college football, and he seems 283 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: to get always the most bang for his buck. So, 284 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 1: like an efficiency of productivity, there's something about the way 285 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: that he is going about his business that is just 286 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: squeezing every last drop out of the talent that he has. 287 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 2: I don't know what. Maybe you can come up with 288 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 2: a word for this. Is there something about your excite 289 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 2: bike over Maybe he is just how to excite bike? 290 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 2: How to what he is doing? Right? 291 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: He couldn't hold the B button. That's my big ripe, 292 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: like the B button would overheat the bike. 293 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 2: I think he can ride the B button better than 294 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 2: any coach in America in terms of buy in. Okay, 295 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 2: in terms of maxing out his bike on the whatever 296 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: the track, I think he can he can ride. I 297 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 2: mean in sports games there's that turbo element, right, you 298 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 2: can't hold down the turbo for too long or else 299 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 2: you're gonna have no turbo. I think his ability to 300 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 2: ride the excite bike B button with his roster in 301 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 2: terms of buy in, in terms of caring, in terms 302 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 2: of fully maximizing the ceilings of his players, he does 303 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 2: that better than anybody he brings out like his If 304 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: there were video game meters, his buy in and care 305 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 2: meter in terms of what his player's average seems like 306 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: it exceeds just about everybody relative to whatever the recruiting 307 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 2: talent on hand, which is still really good all things 308 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 2: considered for Iowa State's recent history. So I think that's 309 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 2: the master class there. The master class is to basically 310 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 2: maximize what you have and not to fret about what 311 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 2: you don't. There was a story, remember later in the season, 312 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 2: there was like Texas has five star players, Oklahoma's five 313 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 2: star players. We've got five star culture, and it's totally 314 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 2: cheese ball. It's obviously totally cheese ball. But if the 315 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 2: secret sauce of college football is always acquiring and convincing 316 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 2: talented players to play as hard as they possibly can 317 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 2: and to care about playing hard at all times, that's 318 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 2: that's the secret sauce for Iowa State right now is 319 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 2: riding that BE. 320 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: Button, riding the B button. 321 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: Not pushing it too far, but knowing which literal buttons 322 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 2: to push on that NES controller to get that buy 323 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 2: in he needs to get because you watch Iowa State 324 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 2: play and they're just they just they care fourteen. They're 325 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 2: set more on every play than just about everybody they 326 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 2: line up. 327 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 1: There is that combination of maximizing morale with maximizing you know, 328 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: your productivity on the field. Like sure, in many ways 329 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: he would be the perfect person to give a business 330 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: convention on how to do it, how to get the 331 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: most out of your sales staff. You know that sort 332 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: of thing. 333 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 2: Sure, absolutely, all right, who's next? Give me another name? 334 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 2: Or do you want me to own you? Throw me 335 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 2: Matt Campbell, Jim Harbaugh, give me the master class on 336 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh that Jim Harbaugh is teaching and it doesn't 337 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 2: have to necessarily be positive. We weren't. I think it 338 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 2: was a backhanded compliment to Clay Helton about what his 339 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 2: master class is, just like how to be likable and 340 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 2: keep moving up. 341 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Jim Harbaugh has sort of been the 342 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: master of shorter stints at a place being used to 343 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: like parlaying that into other high paying jobs. 344 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 2: By the way, isn't there isn't there a vorpe element 345 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 2: to Clay Helton. 346 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: There's so much that flows through There's so many through lines. Yeah, 347 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: Clay Hilton, Sorry, continue, but I mean Harball I feel 348 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: when I think horriball, the first thing that comes to 349 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: mind is he. First off, he got a lot of 350 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: mileage out of Andrew Luck. Sure, I think he's a 351 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: great coach, don't get me wrong, but he got a 352 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: lot of mileage. A lot of notoriety out of what 353 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: he did with Andrew Luck at Stanford, and throughout the 354 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: course of his coaching career, he's been able to parlay 355 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: success at one spot over a short haul into a 356 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: job at another spot that would presumably pay him more. 357 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: Is that fair? 358 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 2: I man, I don't know. I think he was a 359 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 2: freaking I'm not saying. 360 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: I'm not saying not saying he wasn't a good coach. 361 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he wasn't good coach. 362 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 2: I don't think that's a short all that was like 363 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 2: seven years, eight years. 364 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he was a bad coach. I think 365 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 1: he's a really good coach. Okay, and I still have 366 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: some bit of faith in him at Michigan though it's dwindled. 367 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 1: That's weird, but continue it's led. Yeah, but I feel 368 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 1: like the guy has just jumped around so much that 369 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: unfortunately that sort of overshadows the fact that he's a 370 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: good coach. He's just been everywhere at this point. 371 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 2: Isn't it a masterclass on like self branding and branding 372 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:29,959 Speaker 2: just in general. 373 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: Maybe he's definitely got a good agent. 374 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 2: There is Well, he's got a good agent, But I 375 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 2: think it's more h totally and completely adhering to an 376 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 2: identity that you build for yourself. Right, It's how many 377 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 2: times has the word toughness been written about Michigan football 378 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 2: and about Jim Harbor and the forty nine ers in 379 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 2: Stanford and all the big offensive linemen and running the 380 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 2: ball in physicality, line of scrimmage, Like, there is an 381 00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 2: element of Jim Harbaugh's repeatability that we criticize programs for saying, 382 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 2: what is the identity? What are they trying to be? 383 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 2: What are they trying to recruit to, what are they 384 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 2: trying to hire to? And although Jim Harbaugh has shifted 385 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 2: Michigan somewhat in terms of I guess offensive identity, whenever 386 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: you listen to him speak, there's a degree of seriousness 387 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 2: and the Michigan man and we are going to play 388 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 2: the right way. And there is that idea of I mean, 389 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 2: he wears khakis, he wears lemon, but I know he's 390 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 2: up to the and I think he switched away from 391 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 2: the last year, right, he didn't wear the khakis, Yeah, 392 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 2: I believe so. I think he went to a darker, 393 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 2: darker pan. I don't know if it was a Chino. 394 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 2: I couldn't tell you the exact cut, but there is 395 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 2: that that seriousness to Jim Harbor, and it can be 396 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 2: whatever it is. But I think the masterclass of what 397 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh could teach is picking a lane and never wavering, 398 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 2: driving from coast to coast on the same interstate. And 399 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 2: there is something that if you can sell a group 400 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 2: of people a like mind, if you can find a 401 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 2: like minded group of people, they're going to buy in 402 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 2: because they're going to aspire to be the same as 403 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh. Jim Harbaugh from day one until this very 404 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 2: second is Jim Harbaugh. The adaptability is not there, but 405 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: there is something strangely impressive about this is who I am. 406 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 2: I'm not wavering, and there's a lot of people out 407 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 2: there who want to not waiver with me. Now, maybe 408 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 2: there are fewer people in the world of Michigan football, 409 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 2: but there is something about branding and identity to Jim 410 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 2: Harbaugh specifically, that is a talent that if you watch 411 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 2: a Jim Harbaugh team at Stanford, and you watch a 412 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh team from the middle era of Michigan football, 413 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: you watch it you know Jim Harbaugh team and even 414 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 2: though it was Colin Kaepernick, and they were running the 415 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: quarterback a lot more. There was still that element of 416 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: knowing what you're going to get from a Jim Harbaugh 417 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 2: team that anybody when I say Jim Harbough team, people 418 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. For better or worse. Sometimes it's 419 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 2: a good thing, sometimes it's not so good thing. But 420 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: there is a talent in stamping your name next to 421 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,919 Speaker 2: an ideal, and that's what Jim Harbor has. 422 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: Well. Well, I mean, look, the guy played in the 423 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: NFL for fourteen years. Played in the NFL for fourteen years, 424 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,119 Speaker 1: and you know, bounced around a bit, but at the 425 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: same time kind of made his mark as a quarterback. 426 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: And I take your point. Sure, this is going to 427 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: be year seven at Michigan, but he was like three 428 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: years at San Diego, four years at Stanford, four years 429 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: with the Niners. This is the longest he's been anywhere. 430 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: So I think I can make the case that it's 431 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: been short stints that got him. Short successful stints, mind you, 432 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: that got him to this stage where now he's with Michigan. 433 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: The branding aspect of this, though, the personal branding aspect 434 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: of this wearing cleats a branding aspect of this, though, 435 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: I think Woomb's pretty large, and I think there are 436 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: probably a lot of Michigan fans who feel like they 437 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: didn't get what they bargained for with him. He was 438 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 1: supposed to be the savior who came in and made 439 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: Michigan football what it's always supposed to be and hasn't 440 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: done that yet. 441 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 2: That's fine, This is not a commentary on that necessarily, 442 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 2: But is there something that, especially if I were to 443 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 2: ask solid wife Kate, like, what is what has Tie 444 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 2: branded himself with that is the most unwavering tie thing 445 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 2: there is? Oh gosh, do you have an answer? Would 446 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 2: she have an answer? Like the way you wire up 447 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 2: a security camera at your house, what you travel with? 448 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 2: Is there anything like that? 449 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: That's probably what we talked about a few shows ago, 450 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: the same jokes over and over again. I'd say, that's. 451 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 2: Hmmm, oh yeah, well that's marriage. That's marriage. 452 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. 453 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I the one thing I can think 454 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 2: of that is and I mean, I admit it's ridiculous 455 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 2: and so aggressive, but I do bring earplugs to it. 456 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 2: That like the old Man branding that I have stamped 457 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 2: on my You're seventy years old secretly is so severe? Yeah? 458 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 2: Is I just I'm not going to blow out my 459 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 2: ears for living on a prayer. I'm just not. 460 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: I want to throw out a Scott Frost. 461 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 2: Scott Frost, Okay, masterclass. It's narrative, right, I think so, 462 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 2: I think so, you know. And the reason I guess 463 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 2: I throw out Frost is because we talked about Jim 464 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 2: Harball and the personal branding and using previous success to 465 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 2: get to. 466 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: It's alma mater. Frost isn't all that dissimilar. It's just 467 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 1: been a shorter road to get back in a brand asca. 468 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: He didn't have quite the success that Harball had obviously, 469 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: just because Harball was doing it longer. But now we're 470 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: in this stage with uh like, shall we call it 471 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: late stage Scott Frost at Nebraska where it does feel 472 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: like the natives are getting a little restless. Initially there was 473 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: an excitement that I think he brought with him to Lincoln. 474 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 1: I worry that that's warn't awful a little bit at 475 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: this point, and it's just a bunch of skeptical fans. 476 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 1: So if you're Scott Frost, if you're making the online course, 477 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: what are you selling at this point? Is it. Is 478 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,239 Speaker 1: it just you know, crafting the perfect narrative? What is 479 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: it to you? 480 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean maybe it's not narrative. I'm trying to 481 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 2: think what it is. Is it that he did a 482 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 2: really good job. I mean, he succeeded at UCF. Is 483 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 2: there an element of drafting off of Chip Kelly? 484 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: Is that? 485 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 2: I mean, that's not really a repeatable. It's not like 486 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 2: you can take a master class on saying I was 487 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 2: Chip Kelly's offensive coordinator or receivers coach, and I'm running 488 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 2: the Chip Kelly offense and succeeded at UCF, It'll succeed 489 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 2: at Nebraska. 490 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: I think there is We can take this one of 491 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:20,120 Speaker 1: two directions. Are we assuming that Scott Frost is going 492 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 1: to be a successful coach or are we assuming that 493 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,359 Speaker 1: he is trading off of his former value at this point, 494 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: because you can go two distinctly different directions. 495 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 2: Right now UCF is too much. UCF is now in 496 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 2: its second coach and second tenure since Scott Frost Gus Malson. 497 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 2: So I think that rear view mirror is probably a 498 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 2: little bit too severe in terms of distance. So right 499 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 2: now Scott Frost is trading on I think the narrative 500 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,640 Speaker 2: thing has probably it's probably a little bit too thin. 501 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 2: So the master class has to be that he is 502 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 2: this young, offensive gu still and maybe it's an element 503 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 2: of the fact that he is like a young in 504 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 2: shape guy, so he gets the benefit of the doubt 505 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 2: of like he's the smartest kid in the room. He's 506 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 2: a wounder. Linder kings that a German thing that you 507 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 2: probably can translate for me. I think he is trading 508 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 2: on that a little bit. That there is still this 509 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 2: element to not just here's what I did at UCF, 510 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 2: but you know I started succeeding at a young age. 511 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 2: I brought this program back, you know, inherited some, recruited some, 512 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 2: and you know, like hired well whatever it was at UCF. 513 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 2: That there is there is a branding element to him 514 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 2: as well, and a lot of it might not even 515 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 2: be his doing. It's just you look at him and 516 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 2: there is that element of I have worked with these 517 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 2: offensive gurus, I have had success offensively, So there is 518 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 2: an element of hope and potential because of age and 519 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 2: vague history. What that master class is. I think that's 520 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 2: where it goes to the narrative, where it's the narra 521 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 2: that's the offensive Wounderkin narrative. I think you got a match, 522 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 2: He'll tell you in his masterclass. Got to strike quickly. 523 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 2: It's gotta happen quickly. If you want to make some cash, 524 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 2: you got to pick the right place to go when 525 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 2: your reputation is at its highest. Because if you are 526 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 2: a hot offensive coordinator, say a Lincoln Riley at ECU, 527 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 2: don't take a big offensive coordinator at a coordinator job somewhere. 528 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 1: Don't go. 529 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 2: Don't take a Perdue job. Don't take an Iowa job. 530 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 2: Don't take even a Texas Tech job. No Texas techs. 531 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 2: That's some huge offenses. I take that one back, But 532 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 2: don't take a job that's going to set you up 533 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: with money but not necessarily clear success. And so Lincoln 534 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 2: Riley making the move to Oklahoma as an offensive coordinator 535 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 2: is the sort of know where you fit, where you 536 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 2: set up best for success. And Scott Frost making that 537 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 2: UCF move was I mean, it was. 538 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: A brilliant that was the master class. Maybe that was. 539 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 2: The master class. And now it's just you know when 540 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,719 Speaker 2: actors get a little bit older where they're like, yeah, 541 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 2: I don't really want to do deep impact, but they're 542 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 2: offering me eight point two million dollars. There is that 543 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 2: element of you sometimes you just you got it, got 544 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 2: to grab the opportunity once you've proven yourself, even if 545 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: that opportunity isn't necessarily set up for just need one 546 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 2: big hit. 547 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: You just need one big hit and then your set. 548 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 2: I'm actually positive Florida is pretty happy they did not 549 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 2: go in this or Scott Frost did not want to 550 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 2: go in the Gator direction. 551 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: All right, well, I was gonna say we could go 552 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: Dan Mullen. Actually I want to go Kirby Smart, Kirby Smart. 553 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 1: I want to go Kirby Smart. So Kirby Smart. 554 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 2: It's pretty similar. 555 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: Actually yeah, Kirby Smart for a long time was with 556 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: Nick Saban. Of course left took over it. Georgia is 557 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 1: I think, trying to build a similarly fashioned minded program 558 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: and is obviously having some early gains here. He's been 559 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: a huge success. Georgia, I think, is pretty happy with 560 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: with what they've gotten out of him thus far. Kirby's 561 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: kind of a low key guy, like I think generally 562 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: when when you see him into interviews and stuff, kind 563 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: of a madman on the sidelines. Not not dissimilar from 564 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 1: many coaches on the sideline's kind of kind of a madman, 565 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: to be clear. 566 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 2: To be clear, when you say early gains, he's entering 567 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 2: his sixty year it happens. 568 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:41,239 Speaker 1: Right, But had some success very quickly, sure, definitely, So 569 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: there is that component of cashing in on your name. 570 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: But he was at Alabama for a while, right, and 571 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: he waited for the job that was best for him, 572 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: that gave him, you know, the best chance of success 573 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: at Georgia, job that he cleared al the water. Right. 574 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: So it's not quite the same degree as a Scott Frost. 575 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: It's much different in that aspect. When I think of 576 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: Kirby Smart, I think I think defense. I think defense. 577 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: He was a defensive minded coach. He came in right 578 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: away at Georgie put together just a baller defense, and 579 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: now they're trying to build that offense up around him. 580 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:27,959 Speaker 1: They obviously have parts that you know are exciting and excitable. 581 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: But I think defense. I think the art of defense 582 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: as the first thing when I think of Kirby Smart. 583 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: So how do we extrapolate that out, unpack that skill 584 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: into another masterclass? 585 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 2: It might just be defense, I mean it's defense and 586 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 2: recruiting it's how to be Diet Saban, because he has 587 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 2: been quite adaptable on defense, the way that even his 588 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 2: defenses at Alabama and now his defenses at Georgia have changed. 589 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 2: I mentioned that I had watched one of his clinics 590 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 2: and he talked about, you know, moving away from the 591 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 2: sort of war daddy nose tackle types into getting much 592 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 2: smaller and being able to go sideline to sideline and 593 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: be able to run various defenses with you know, three 594 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 2: down linemen and four down linemen and be able to 595 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 2: adapt to any offense. And I think there's a certain 596 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 2: degree of you look at any successful coach and they're 597 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 2: able to adapt and they're able to see, you know, 598 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 2: which way the wind is blowing. The problem is with 599 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 2: Kirby Smart is the Diet Sabin element. With the way 600 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 2: the quarterback room has been managed these past few years. 601 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 2: You know, the sort of debacle with Justin Fields and 602 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 2: Jake fromm and this past year. I mean, I excuse 603 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 2: a lot with twenty twenty actually, but the offense was 604 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 2: it got to be a pretty stale offense under Jim Cheney, 605 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 2: especially in bigger games. So in terms of masterclass with 606 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 2: Kirby Smart, I would say it would be Kirby Smart 607 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 2: Colin putting most of it together, putting putting most of 608 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 2: it together, and maybe it's put build most of your 609 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 2: project and maybe call it a task rabbit. 610 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: A Have you ever done a task rabbit? 611 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 2: I think Jody did when she was living alone in 612 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 2: New York for building some furniture or something like that 613 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 2: before I knew her. 614 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: I don't think I have, And I wish they had 615 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: a better name for it. I feel like a task 616 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 1: rabbit is such a demeaning title. It is like a 617 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: door dasher is like dashers are reindeer, you know, like 618 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: you can feel good, but a task rabbit just feels 619 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: so demeaning. And it isn't. It isn't at all. But 620 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: I just I wish they had better branding. Maybe they 621 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: could take the Jim Harbaugh course. 622 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I oh man. There is an element of Kirby 623 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 2: Smart is it's just how to raise expectations and coast 624 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 2: for as long as possible, Because he raised the expectations 625 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 2: in George after taking that team to an SEC title 626 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 2: in a national championship game and getting to what overtime 627 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 2: an overtime period away from winning the national Championship. And 628 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 2: now they've just sort of plateau the art of the plateau. 629 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 2: Kirby smarkhole in the Art of the Plateau. 630 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 1: All right, your turn. Where are we going next? 631 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 2: Uh, let's do. Let's do James Franklin master class. CA. 632 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: Okay, good one, good one. 633 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 2: Jimmy Franks. 634 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: Jimmy Franks slate game, James near win jim Yeah, definitely 635 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: not clock management. This is we know clock management will 636 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: not be his master class, James frank The people who 637 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: really dislike James Franklin, I think he's a snake oil salesman. 638 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: He's a snake oil salesman. That it's I don't believe that. 639 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: I don't believe that to be the case either, but 640 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: I am. I'm going somewhere with this, so just hang 641 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: with me. The people who really don't like him think 642 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: he's a snake oil salesman and that when the rubber 643 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: really meets the road, he's all hat, no cattle, it's 644 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: just all bark, no bite. He's he's a snake oil salesman, right, 645 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 1: He's he's a wizard of oz. 646 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 2: Well, he's he's very charming, right in his press conferences 647 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 2: and his quotes. Yeah, yeah, you're inspiring, he's charming, he 648 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 2: appears to be a good dude from afar publicly. 649 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: I yes, And I know people in media who felt 650 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 1: similarly about Franklin, that he was snake oil salesman, that 651 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: it was it was inauthentic, and that you know, eventually 652 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: that will come back to bite him. A lot of 653 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 1: those folks have actually changed their tune on him. 654 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 2: Interesting. 655 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I don't know if it's success. 656 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's you know, just getting to 657 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: know the guy better over the years. But I have 658 00:35:55,840 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: been I've been pleasantly surprised by some of those folks 659 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: who have told me that they change their tune on him. 660 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 1: And it's more than one, it's a couple. So with 661 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: that said, I don't think that's an angle, but I 662 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 1: do think it's notable because that charm is real, and 663 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 1: I think something of like maybe he steals away the 664 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: art of persuasion away from Daniel pink On, the actual master. 665 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 2: I mean, does it also fall under how to win 666 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 2: friends and influence? 667 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: But it does, it does. He's just a master recruiter. 668 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: He has very quickly built Penn State back up into 669 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,839 Speaker 1: a regular conversation piece in the Big ten, what he 670 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: did with organizing the parts around trades, Bic Sorely and 671 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley, bringing in defensive talent, like he has absolutely 672 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: infused that program with talent. You know on the line, 673 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 1: they've gotten better tight end tight end, tight end has 674 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 1: been a thing, Like they really have just gotten just 675 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: a different order of magnitude better under his tutelage. So 676 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: I think, more more than anything, it's around the recruiting game. 677 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: It's about going into living rooms. It's about winning over 678 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 1: hearts and minds and getting people to commit to Penn State, 679 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: winning the state, dominating the state. As he said in 680 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,799 Speaker 1: his introductory press conference, that above all else is what 681 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: he is best at. So however we package that into 682 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: part of this offering, we can discuss. But that is 683 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 1: his thing, that is what he is best at. 684 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 2: I think there's an element of surrounding himself with the 685 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 2: best he possibly can and I know your boy, Kirk 686 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 2: Shiaka this year didn't necessarily fall into that category in 687 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 2: terms of how the offense produced in a very strange 688 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,280 Speaker 2: twenty twenty. By and large, he's done since his early 689 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 2: days a pretty good job of hiring coaches and coordinators 690 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 2: and finding the best fits. I think what Bob Shoop 691 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 2: did a pretty good job for Penn State. Brent Prye 692 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 2: has done a pretty good job for Penn State. Ricky 693 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 2: Ronnie was not amazing after Joe Morehead, but Joe Morehead 694 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 2: was incredible for Penn State. And I think expectations are 695 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 2: pretty high for Mike. You're sick. I think there is 696 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 2: that ability. I think how to surround. I think there 697 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 2: is a talent in building up the people around you, 698 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 2: building up your circle, and recognizing and knowing what you 699 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 2: don't know. There are a lot of coaches who have 700 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 2: an offensive background. What James Franklin was what the Maryland 701 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 2: coach in waiting for alf Regent, And he could have 702 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,800 Speaker 2: just as easily said I've got this background on offense. 703 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,839 Speaker 2: I could be Chip Kelly or Tom Herman or any 704 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 2: of these guys that came into these head coaching jobs, 705 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 2: Gus Malson or saying I'm calling plays. I got here 706 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 2: because of my offensive acumen. But James Franklin, after you 707 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 2: know the was it. Bob Donovan was his first Excuse me, 708 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:56,919 Speaker 2: not Bob do Ye, John Donovan. Yeah, They're sorry. There 709 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 2: is that element to James Franklin and saying I'm always 710 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 2: going to have a list of guys who are impressing 711 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 2: me elsewhere, and when a position opens up, I know 712 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,879 Speaker 2: who I'm calling. I know this seven calls I'm going 713 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 2: to make on any level. There is that element to 714 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 2: James Franklin I think has really helped, and it's that 715 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 2: people person element to him. It seems that has convinced 716 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 2: these guys because you can look at a number of 717 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 2: huge schools that have made these like really questionable and 718 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 2: sort of LIMP coordinator. 719 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:29,360 Speaker 1: Hires, limp coordinator hires where it just sort of leaves 720 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 1: you like again we come back to John Donovan. 721 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 2: John Donovan. Yeah it's not John Donovan, but there are 722 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 2: places everywhere you're just like, man, I just what, my god, 723 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 2: Kansas is hiring who. It's just there's just that element 724 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 2: to it. Cal is hiring who, like USC is hiring who. 725 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 2: Minnesota is hiring who. And by and large, I want 726 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 2: to say I'd give him credit for saying, this guy 727 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,360 Speaker 2: has produced everywhere he's gone. This guy is in intriguing, 728 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,400 Speaker 2: this guy resonates with people. He's creative, His defense or 729 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 2: his offense is creative. I think that's probably the genius 730 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 2: of James Franklin is surrounding himself with smart, capable people. 731 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: So there's a Dabo Sweeney component to this. Sure, absolutely 732 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: if we assume, if we assume Dabbo is doing the 733 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: people pleaser type course, how to you know, compartmentalise I 734 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 1: think we agreed on. 735 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 2: I think Dabo has done worse in that department publicly 736 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 2: this past year than James. 737 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:36,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure. But I think the 738 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 1: Dabo Sweeney course is one that you give to perspective 739 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: coaches or politicians. I think the one that I mean 740 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,480 Speaker 1: James Franklin could absolutely be a politician, that's part of 741 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: the job. But for sure, I think James Franklin's course 742 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 1: is targeted more at like HR professionals building the winning 743 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: team for both from the outside and within. 744 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 2: What about coach ol Oh? 745 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 1: God? 746 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 2: What is the master class of Coach Oh? Is it 747 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 2: him selling himself as a local? I mean, it's it's branding, 748 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,399 Speaker 2: you know, it's the relentless, it's the sort of you know, 749 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 2: his voice is different, there's a certain amount of charm 750 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 2: to you know, Tagos every single interview he does. What 751 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 2: is it about coach O that differentiates himself. Now you 752 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 2: can use the adaptability as well. Obviously, you know with 753 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,719 Speaker 2: his low points at Ole Miss and you know how 754 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,439 Speaker 2: down he was personally after not getting the USC job 755 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 2: when he was the interim twice. 756 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:42,839 Speaker 1: I think I have one for. 757 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 2: Him moving to the spread. What is it? What is 758 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 2: the coach oh master class? 759 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: Coach oh masterclass is the art of admitting defeat. It 760 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,959 Speaker 1: is the art of admitting defeat. Because Coach Owe's most 761 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 1: successful season are you will be his most successful season 762 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,240 Speaker 1: in his entire career was what he did with Joe Burrow. 763 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,800 Speaker 2: And of course, I mean it's the most successful season 764 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 2: of yeah right, for sure. 765 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 1: But what he did before that season was he completely 766 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: nuked the offense. They went with that Joe Brady system. 767 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 1: I mean, it revitalized Joe Burrow, It turned him into 768 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: the first overall pick. He really did an about face 769 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: and got away from the old ushered in the new. 770 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: It worked really, really well. But there have been times 771 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: throughout the course of Coacho's career as a coach where 772 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: you know, maybe they didn't have quite that level of success. 773 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: There was a USC thing, right, I mean, he came in, 774 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 1: he made his mark, the team loved him and he 775 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 1: made a strong case to stick around. It didn't work out, 776 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: but he was able to build from that on some level. 777 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,760 Speaker 1: Admit defeat, move on, move back up through the ranks, 778 00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 1: and eventually eventually get this job with Elis You again 779 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 1: on the ropes at LSU, had to reinvent himself, was 780 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,279 Speaker 1: able to go out, change that offensive system, have a 781 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 1: general once in a generation season, win a national championship, 782 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: and now he's going to be forced to do it again. 783 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,279 Speaker 1: In some sense. Last year was not a good year 784 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 1: for multitude of reasons. The lost a ton of guys 785 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,399 Speaker 1: at injuries, that guys opt out, pandemic, blah blah blah, 786 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: you know the drill. But he's again trying to retool 787 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 1: that offense, trying to start anew in the SEC West. 788 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 1: We'll see if he can do it. He did do 789 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: it once. But I think the story of Coacho has 790 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: been finding ways to basically reinvent yourself. First off, admit defeat, 791 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 1: reinvent yourself and rebrand and just make it happen. 792 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, strictly in terms of football, because obviously there have 793 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:56,840 Speaker 2: been some concerns surrounding co Show recently with how he 794 00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 2: has conducted himself as like a CEO of human within 795 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 2: the LSU program, but strictly within football. There is an 796 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 2: element to the way LSU has improved. Now we are 797 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 2: in the shadow of him making two kind of disastrous hires. 798 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,879 Speaker 2: Now the quarterback injuries aside, because that played a huge 799 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,360 Speaker 2: role in the offensive struggles thet least part of the 800 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 2: back half or the majority of the season when Miles 801 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:22,760 Speaker 2: Brennan went down, but a completely disastrous defensive coordinator higher 802 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 2: that is at odds with me saying relentless attention to 803 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 2: improving LSU's program, whether it's you know, raising money or 804 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 2: getting what is the corporate term when you want to 805 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 2: add people to a team, like you want to get 806 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 2: more bodies? Is that a thing you want to at 807 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,239 Speaker 2: you want to have you heard that terminology like I 808 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 2: need more bodies in this department or something like that, 809 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,319 Speaker 2: Like he has in terms of like the analysts, in 810 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 2: terms of the guys in the program bringing in advise augmentation, yeah, 811 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 2: staff augmentation, that kind of thing. There is an element 812 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,240 Speaker 2: to ed Orgeron looking around on the college football landscape 813 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 2: and saying, if LSU wants to compete at the highest level, 814 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 2: we need a B and C. And I think his 815 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 2: relentless sales job to his bosses and to the money, 816 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 2: the money connected to LSU, the money, the people. Yeah, 817 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 2: please do. I think there's a relentlessness to ed Orgeron 818 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 2: when it comes to that football program that has served 819 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 2: him and that program extremely well. But also it has 820 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,799 Speaker 2: served the program, as we're finding out, somewhat to the 821 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 2: detriment of the program. That there's a relentlessness that is 822 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 2: generally controlled but not always controlled. And if you read 823 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 2: Bruce Feldman's meat Market, there's relentlessness to his recruiting and 824 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 2: his drive and the red bulls, and you know, just 825 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 2: the constant pressure he puts on himself to secure commitments 826 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 2: from prospects that I think in terms of again that 827 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 2: our word relentlessness might be unmatched in the sport. 828 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 1: That. 829 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 2: Does that strike a chord with you? 830 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:02,920 Speaker 1: Think? So? 831 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 2: Okay? 832 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:05,840 Speaker 1: I think you do. 833 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:12,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, hasn't always served him well, or that program well, 834 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 2: or his players well, or the LSU campus well, but 835 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 2: there's a relentlessness. 836 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 1: To I agree with that. Okay, you want one more name, 837 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:22,720 Speaker 1: I'm named out. 838 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:29,720 Speaker 2: You're named out. Okay, let's do have we done? Anybody 839 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 2: in the Big twelve. Yet, oh yeah, we did Matt Campbell. 840 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 2: You just give me a conference that we haven't hit 841 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 2: hard enough. We did Penn State and we did Michigan. 842 00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:44,239 Speaker 2: We haven't done anybody in the Oh No, we did 843 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:45,680 Speaker 2: Scott Frost as well in the Big ten. So we're 844 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 2: tapped out Big ten. ACC. We did Dabbo, anybody else 845 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,239 Speaker 2: in the ACC you want to Hell. 846 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 1: We could do Justin Fialente. But I don't know if 847 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 1: that's high profile enough. I had him on the show. 848 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 2: It doesn't need to be high profile. 849 00:46:57,560 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what that course would be that he 850 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 1: would teach. At this point. Mac Brown could be interesting. 851 00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's do masterclass mac Brown. 852 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 1: Mac Brown checks a lot of these boxes, actually, a 853 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 1: lot of these boxes adaptability. When I think of mac 854 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 1: Brown now, I think of a second wind. I think 855 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,360 Speaker 1: of a guy who was out of the game for 856 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 1: a while. There was a lot of skepticism on him 857 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: coming back after all these years to coach at North Carolina, 858 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,880 Speaker 1: a place where he had previously been. Thus far that 859 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:35,920 Speaker 1: has yielded great results. There's no other way to look 860 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,479 Speaker 1: at it. So I think what I'd like to tap 861 00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:42,359 Speaker 1: into here is and there may actually be a masterclass 862 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 1: about this, but sort of the artist staying current. You know, 863 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 1: there is an adaptability aspect to this, for sure, but 864 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 1: you also need to be plugged in constantly if you 865 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: want to be able to relate on the same level 866 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: as your players, players, as he would say, plurers. So 867 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 1: there's something there. There's some aspect to Mac there that 868 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 1: we could unpack. Of course, there's a whole politician side 869 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:10,520 Speaker 1: of Mac. 870 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 2: I was gonna say the gubernatorial drive I think might 871 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 2: be the answer. 872 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:17,759 Speaker 1: The gubernatorial drive. 873 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 2: Where it's memorizing every name you've ever come across, figuring 874 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 2: out the degree of folksiness. And I mean, you're right 875 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,319 Speaker 2: that it does combine a number of the traits that 876 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,719 Speaker 2: we've identified in other coaches, where it's the adapt bit 877 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 2: about Mac Brown's subtitle weaponizing your folksiness, that's pretty good. 878 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 2: But it also I think is genuine from what I 879 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 2: can tell from people who have spent time with him 880 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 2: behind the scenes, that there is no I don't think 881 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:57,360 Speaker 2: there is that Phil Hartman Reagan dynamic. I think it 882 00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,400 Speaker 2: has served him extremely well that he's so comfortable in 883 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,760 Speaker 2: his own skin. Maybe that's the masterclass, is skin comfort. 884 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 2: And when I say that out loud. It does sound creepy. 885 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,360 Speaker 2: It's a little weird, but I think it is. I 886 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,120 Speaker 2: think it's a masterclass skin comfort, and I think that 887 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 2: resonates with people on the recruiting trail. I think it 888 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:16,839 Speaker 2: resonates with media. Obviously he's played the media game. I 889 00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:19,360 Speaker 2: think there is a certain degree and the reason why, 890 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 2: you know, eventually it didn't work out of Texas just 891 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:25,759 Speaker 2: because it's a results oriented business. But the reason he 892 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 2: got the time he got and the reason the patience 893 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 2: was dealt to him by the broader Texas administration whatever, 894 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 2: is because everybody loves him. And so there is that 895 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:43,760 Speaker 2: that skin comfort that mac Brown has used to navigate 896 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 2: the sport that might even be unmatched in the sport, 897 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 2: and the way that some other guys have these like 898 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:49,720 Speaker 2: top tier traits. 899 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 1: Well, it's been funding skin comfort, skin Comfort saverbogmail dot 900 00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,399 Speaker 1: com is the email address.

So 914 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 2: that aside, those were the traits. 915 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 1: Okay, well, fun show.
