Speaker 3: So we moved from the west side Annapolis to the

34
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 3: south side, you know, just so a little bit safer,

35

125
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 2: That explains your success on the football field because you're

126
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 2: a visual guy. You're seeing holes, you're running back, you

127
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 2: can see okay, switching gears just a little bit. You're

128
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 2: communications major in college. Is that like in your future?

129
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 2: Do you want to be in media? Like talk to

130
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 2: me about your love for that. Are you coming to

131
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 2: take my job? Because I just got this one, so

132
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 2: I need to keep it.

133
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 3: Okay, man, I understand maybe we can you know duo,

134
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 3: So you know what I'm saying, like that something like this,

135
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 3: you know, but yeah, I want to do something like this.

136
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 3: I had actually the Tyrone Tracy Show when I was

137
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 3: at Purdue. Obviously, with football, you only see us on

138
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 3: the football field, so it's kind of hard to understand

139
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 3: us as people if you don't get to see that side.

140
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 3: So that was the main thing, you know, from it,

141
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 3: asking questions allowing you know, some of my teammates to

142
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 3: show their personality in different ways. So that was that

143
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 3: was pretty dope. And then, like you said, communication majors,

144
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 3: I want to like be able to give off my

145
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 3: knowledge to really anyone who's willing to listen. I've been

146
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 3: through a lot, you know, throughout you know, my twenty

147
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 3: four years, through just life in general. So I feel

148
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 3: like it'd be dumb on me to not, you know,

149
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 3: give off my knowledge and wisdom that you know, God

150
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 3: has given me. So yeah, that's you know, really after this,

151
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 3: that's probably you know where I'm headed.

152
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 2: Incredible good luck in that and if I could help

153
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 2: in any way, you know, I'm here all right.

154
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: I want to go back a little bit.

155
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 2: I want to go back to Tyrone when he was

156
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 2: in eighth I heard a story that you went out

157
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 2: to football practice. I guess your coaches brought you out

158
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: the football practice and brought you out there and like

159
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 2: put you at running back, probably gave you the ball,

160
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 2: and you just sast everybody up, like you just did

161
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 2: your thing out there for the first time out there

162
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 2: in the football.

163
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: I need that story. I need I need it from

164
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: your mouth.

165
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, So it was really it was an I want

166
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 3: to say I want to say eighth grade. I want

167
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: to say it was ninth grade. It was in ninth

168
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 3: grade because when I first when I first got to

169
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 3: high school, I really I knew I wanted to be

170
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 3: a running back, but like it really wasn't the opportunities

171
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 3: for varsity. So I was really just you know, freshman JV,

172
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 3: and but I knew I was good enough for varsity,

173
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 3: but I just never had no opportunities. And it was

174
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 3: like really crazy, honestly, just because how everything kind of

175
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 3: played out.

176
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 1: You know.

177
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 3: They was all, yeah, You're gonna play on JV this weekend,

178
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 3: and I'm mad, I'm hot. I'm telling my MoMA, I

179
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 3: can't believe they got me on JV.

180
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: Because to play varsity.

181
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, I'm ready. I can do it.

182
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 3: I can do it. She's like, you know, look, just

183
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 3: go out there, do your best on JV. Make them

184
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 3: put you on varsity. My dad say basical saying the

185
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 3: same thing, like like, ain't nothing given you feel me,

186
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 3: make them put you on varsity. So I went out there.

187
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 3: I'll even remember the numbers. I just remember every time

188
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 3: I touched that ball. It was a touchdown all I remember.

189
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 3: And then that next game, they were like, Okay, we're

190
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 3: gonna we're gonna put you on varsity. Were gonna see

191
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 3: what you can do. I didn't start, but first play

192
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 3: it was like a sixty yard touchdown. Ever since then

193
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 3: they were like, oh yeah, we're gonna keep you up here.

194
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 3: And then like that, next like two games, started playing

195
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 3: a little more. Y'all started starting as the freshman, and

196
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 3: then after that it was just you know lifestyle.

197
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, now you started as a receiver, right.

198
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 3: No, so I was a running back in high school,

199
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 3: converted to receiver. One of my my officer coordinator, we

200
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 3: went from like a wing tea to a spread and

201
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 3: it was like, you know, we think, you know, you

202
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 3: can be a good receiver. And I love the idea

203
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 3: of using my abilities in space and making people miss

204
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 3: in space. So that was when like I was okay, yeah,

205
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 3: I can do this receiver stuff.

206
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 2: Okay, And then you went back to run because like

207
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 2: you got some hands. I didn't see you catch at

208
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 2: the backfield and seen you. I think, how does that

209
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 2: help you help your game on the football field as

210
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 2: a running back, having that wide receiver background.

211
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it.

212
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 3: Helps a lot a lot. Man, Like you get to

213
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 3: the point to where you're comfortable enough to you know,

214
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 3: catch the ball. You comfort them up to run deep routes,

215
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 3: you know, medium short routes. It helps out a lot,

216
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 3: not only on my end, but like the quarterback end,

217
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 3: Like he should be comfortable enough to throw me the

218
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 3: ball and know that I'm going to, you know, do

219
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 3: my best to either it's me or nobody. You know

220
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, I'm gonna catch it or nobody's gonna

221
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 3: catch it. I want to give the confidence of the

222
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 3: coaching staff to be able to put me in slot,

223
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 3: put me outside, put me anywhere, you know what I'm saying,

224
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 3: have me run routes at the backfield, and that gives

225
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 3: you know, versatility for usban then not only for me,

226
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 3: but for the offense as well. So I think, you know,

227
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 3: with me having that background, it definitely you know, allows

228
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 3: me in the offense to do different things, you know,

229
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,119
Speaker 3: and use me in different.

230
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: Spots as well. Yeah.

231
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 2: I think there's a term in football called the more

232
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 2: you can do. Oh yeah, So the more positions you

233
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 2: can play, the more you can add to it to

234
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 2: a football team, the absolute better. Now, I was a

235
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 2: guy that wore number three, and I wore number three

236
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 2: because I think that it was just a number that

237
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 2: resonated with me. It was a number that gravitated to me.

238
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: I would see that number all around my life, whether

239
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,559
Speaker 2: it was my room numbers in college or phone numbers

240
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 2: that I've had. There was always threes and nine somewhere

241
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 2: in there. And I know you wore three at Iowa

242
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 2: and Purdue with that a special number for you.

243
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: Why did you wear three?

244
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 3: Well, really, I was really a number eleven in high

245
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 3: school because of Tevon Dawson. He was my favorite player.

246
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 3: And I love how he played ball, you know what

247
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 3: I'm saying, Like play with passion all I love that.

248
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 3: So he was my favorite player. So I were number

249
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 3: eleven because of him. And then my senior year, one

250
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 3: of my friends passed. He was on my seven or seventeen,

251
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 3: Dejon Anderson. He was, like I want to say, like

252
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 3: my close friend. But he was someone that always brought

253
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 3: light to every situation, like no matter if he was

254
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 3: losing and winning, like just talking like whatever it was,

255
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,839
Speaker 3: he was always laughing, having a good time, and that

256
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 3: really just hit home, you know what I'm saying. So really,

257
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 3: just for me to him, I was like, man, I'm

258
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 3: about to wear number three, you know, because of you.

259
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, just really just do everything

260
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 3: in your name. And after Iowa, I was number three there,

261
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 3: I came to Purdue and I was, you know, blessed

262
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 3: enough to be able to wear number three there as well.

263
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 3: And then I came here and I wanted to wear

264
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,199
Speaker 3: number three. And then Tate Banks, you know, he got

265
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 3: number three. You know, I went up to him and

266
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 3: asked him, but you know, he he was talking some

267
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 3: part some money that.

268
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 2: I could, I could, I could start trying to trade

269
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 2: numbers and get in and out of numbers.

270
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: Now I remember his stories back and do that.

271
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 2: Eli Manning and some guys Jeff Fiegel's actually are old

272
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 2: our former punter uh and kicker. He pretty much got

273
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 2: like his backyard paid for a patio because he was good.

274
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 2: So one year Plexicco Burds had his number. He went

275
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 2: up to him and was like, y'all need that number.

276
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: Or Plexico went up to him, like y'all need that number.

277
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 2: He was like, well, I need my back patio done.

278
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 2: He's like, okay, cool, got his patio done. And then Eli,

279
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 2: he was wearing ten. Eli comes, He's like yoa, I

280
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 2: need that number. He was like, well, I could use

281
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 2: furniture from my patio. So he gave him fast. So

282
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 2: he was literally getting his house done because he had

283
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 2: all these numbers.

284
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: Joe.

285
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 2: It's hilarious and uh okay, So you mentioned Tavon Austin.

286
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 2: Give me your top five running backs in the league

287
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 2: right now, of all.

288
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 3: Time, of all time, Martiall Faulk definitely in there. You know,

289
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 3: Colts Anneapolis. You know that's how we do. Damn Thompson,

290
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 3: Adrian Peterson had some good running backs. But I ain't

291
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 3: gonna lie. I love Derrick Henry.

292
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: I like to watch.

293
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 3: I love like I look. I love how he played

294
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 3: man like, he played hard and then man twenty nine

295
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 3: every day.

296
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: Come on, now, I ain't know he's gonna go back

297
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: that far.

298
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 2: You a little you're a little wet behind the ears now, Yeah,

299
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 2: he was like that. He was probably the first like

300
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 2: running back. His style kind of changed the game for

301
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 2: running backs right thing exactly one hundred and he was

302
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 2: the one catching ball out of backfield, which obviously changed

303
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 2: the game as well in a different aspect. So I

304
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 2: also heard you play basketball too, a little bit a

305
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 2: little something, okay, So who is your If you could

306
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 2: compare your game, see me, I like to compare my game.

307
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 2: I was a little bit of I was a mix

308
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 2: of Steve Francis and Baron Davis. You know what I'm saying,

309
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 2: Just a mix between those two. I didn't go to

310
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 2: the league because I was like, I'd rather play.

311
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: Football, you know what I'm saying.

00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: Like, you know.

352
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:25,160

00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 3: I don't know, I gotta feel the same way with you.

354
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 3: It's just it's just like, yo, my dog was iron Man.

355
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: That's the thing.

356
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 3: If you was watching, Like if you haven't watched, you

00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 3: watching this movie, like it's gonna be cool to you,

358
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,200

Speaker 3: he just he just died.

361
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 2: But there is no Marvel without Robert Downey. So I

362
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 2: think that's what they lean. That's what they leaning, which

363
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 2: I understand. I guess all right. Game day superstitions, so like.

364
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 3: I don't want to say I'm superstitious because then like

365
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 3: if it doesn't happen, I feel like something bad going happen.

366
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 3: I don't like say that, but like things that I

367
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 3: do all the time every game, and I always wake

368
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,560

369
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 3: me down. Like my energy is always already high. Like

370
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,160
