41
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: College Football Playoff. Oregon's head coach Dan Lanning. We went

42
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: to Eugene this past summer, and I will say it

43
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: is not an easy trip to get there.

44
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 9: No, it is further than I thought. It's a lot,

45
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 9: but it's beautiful out there.

46
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: It better be because it's not even it's not even near,

47
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: like you go to Portland and you gotta drive a

48
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: couple hours. Sure, but yeah, but he was awesome. The

49
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: facility amazing. I mean, they have Nike money and they

50
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: went Amazings and so now they have a shot at

51
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: finishing the season undefeated, win a national championship. So big

52
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: thanks to University of Oregon and coach Landing for having

53
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: us out. Here's about ten minutes of my favorite part

54
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 1: of that conversation. Coach, thanks, appreciate you being here.

55
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 3: Actually we're here. I guess you're already here, so I

56
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 3: appreciate us to be in here, right, Yeah, yes for coming.

57
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: I got a couple questions for you when I was

58
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: looking at kind of your history. You went from being

59
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: a GA obviously to a position coach, but then back

60
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: to a GA at Bama. Was that a tough call

61
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: for you to take a step back, but the program

62
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:36,399
Speaker 1: was a step up?

63
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, it really wasn't. I knew I had more to learn.

64
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 10: Certainly financially it didn't make a lot of sense, but

65
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 10: from a professional development standpoint, it was definitely the right move.

66
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: How much do you say when it comes to what

67
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: uniforms are going to wear or what uniforms are going

68
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 1: to be created. Do you ever see one that doesn't

69
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: even get to the player's eyes because you're like that

70
00:02:58,840 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 1: one is not good?

71
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 10: Sometimes there's a no, but but once once we have

72
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 10: the go, that's kind of where I step out, right,

73
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 10: so I get to see him in advance.

74
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 6: But our creative team, our design group, uh.

75
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 10: They do they do an unbelievable job and then they

76
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 10: get a lot of feedback from our players. Right, Kenny

77
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 10: Farr does a great job working with Nike and you

78
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 10: know those guys that create some some awesome get ups.

79
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 6: For our guys.

80
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 10: But a lot of times we get to the game

81
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 10: on Saturday, when I walk out the tunnel, that's when

82
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 10: I see.

83
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 6: It the first time.

84
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 10: No way, not not the very first time. But like,

85
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 10: but I'm not that week. I'm a lot more.

86
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 6: Worried about the opponent than what we're gonna work to

87
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 6: the game.

88
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 3: I feel like my party jerseys.

89
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: So do you have like a guy that will say

90
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: to you, hey, this looks great? This does it? Is

91
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: there a an aesthetics head of aesthetics here?

92
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 10: No, we have an equipment manager, you know, and he's

93
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 10: on top of it, he does as good job as

94
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 10: anybody in the nation. In fact, I think he's the

95
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 10: best in the nation. When it comes to piecing this together.

96
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 10: It's Kenny farr H. And again he does a great

97
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 10: job of meeting with our players, collaborating with them, collaborate

98
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 10: reading with.

99
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 6: Nike to create some really cool setups for our guys.

100
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 5: Coach of the network loves highlighting your excitement and you

101
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 5: pumping up the team. And there's always a video montage

102
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 5: of somewhere during the game. Do you sometimes go home

103
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 5: and watch and be like, oh, man, like went too hard?

104
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 5: I went way too hard.

105
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 11: You know.

106
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 6: I don't normally watch the TV copy.

107
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 10: You know, at times we might go back and like

108
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 10: peel through it for you know, to to make sure

109
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 10: we don't putting any signals on film or things like that.

110
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 10: But I don't spend a lot of time watching that.

111
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 10: And I'm never gonna be I'm never gonna apologize for passion.

112
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 10: I think the players are going to match your energy

113
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 10: and enthusiasm, So that's something I always want to carry

114
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 10: on the field.

115
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 3: You mentioned you're not gonna watch signal, possibly because signals

116
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 3: could be out there that that's not really a thing anymore.

117
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 10: I think it'll still exist in college football just because

118
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 10: there's still gonna be some teams that carry tempo, and

119
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 10: if you're you know, reliant to just giving the call

120
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 10: and when to one guy in the field, you're probably

121
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 10: going to be short. You know, you want eleven guys

122
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 10: playing the same call on both sides of the ball.

123
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 10: So at times, I think signals will still exist.

124
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: Are you advocating now that every player has communication to

125
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: their helmet because that's what I hear.

126
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, i'd be, I'd be. I'd be great with that.

127
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 10: There's probably some guys that there's such thing as too

128
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 10: much information too. When you get on the field, your

129
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 10: best players, you just wanted to be all play. But yeah,

130
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 10: I think there's probably a benefit to just to where

131
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 10: everybody can hear the call, and that would.

132
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:19,559
Speaker 6: That would certainly help things.

133
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 1: What if everybody else could talk back? Because I worked

134
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: at Hobby Lobby for a while and they gave me

135
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: a speaker. I was on the thing all the time

136
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 1: and I didn't need to say anything.

137
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 10: You ever been on alwaukie talkie where the other guy's

138
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 10: always talking and you can ever.

139
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was me and hobby lobby. They'd be like, hey,

140
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: go down and set up this display. And I was like, hey, guys,

141
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: if you look at three like I out three like

142
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: she's got to you know that kind of stuff.

143
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 3: So, yeah, that probably wouldn't be good right and not

144
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 3: be a good thing.

145
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: Do you ever feel like you you'll change your offense

146
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: or defense based on personnel that comes in if the

147
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: talent is so strikingly Let's say, you know, you run

148
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: wide open, but let's say the guy comes in and

149
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: is a straight ahead runner and maybe doesn't need it

150
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: as well open, Will you change your offense at all

151
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: for that?

152
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 6: Absolutely?

153
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 10: I think a coach's job is to match the you know,

154
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 10: the talents of his personnel, and that's, you know, going

155
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 10: back to being a high school coach, I think you

156
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 10: have to look and see what your players do.

157
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 6: Best and try to make sure you're utilizing their talents.

158
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: When you were your first GA job, what was the

159
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: goal for you there? Was it to be a head

160
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: coach at a major university?

161
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 6: Yeah? I mean that that was a goal early on.

162
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 10: But you know, early in my career, I think I

163
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 10: figured out just be the best at where I'm at

164
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 10: and try to do jobs that nobody else wants to do.

165
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: When you're defensive cornator Georgia. I hated you, man, I

166
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: hated you. Who's your team Arkansas?

167
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 12: Yeah?

168
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I hate you.

169
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 9: Get that coach?

170
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know, not every O C or d

171
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 1: C is known, especially when you' under somebody like a

172
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: Kirby Smart or a Nick Saban, two guys that you've worked.

173
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 3: With, right, both those guys.

174
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: I hated you because there was there was no opportunity.

175
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: It was ugly when you have the players like that

176
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: and you're playing I don't know, let's let's just make

177
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: up a team Arkansas and they're week do you know,

178
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: like this game all we have to do, If we

179
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: do exactly what we've set forward, it is.

180
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 3: Going to be over. They are not going to get anything.

181
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 13: You know.

182
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 10: The great thing about football is you never really feel

183
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 10: that way. And I get nervous before every single game.

184
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 10: Certainly we have more talent than Arkansas when we played them.

185
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 3: But Arkansas, No, No, we're talking about hypothetical.

186
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 6: How's the talent for Arkansas?

187
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 11: No?

188
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 3: No, no, no, it's better. Is that a better coach?

189
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 14: Yeah?

190
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I mean I think anytime you go in

191
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 10: there knowing that if you don't, if you don't accomplish

192
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 10: your goals and really, you know, operate on the same page,

193
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 10: you got an opportunity to lose in college football, and

194
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 10: that's part of what makes the game so great. So

195
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 10: we try to prepare for every game the same and

196
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 10: and hope that we go play our best and the

197
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 10: result hopefully takes care of itself.

198
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: When you walk into a mom or a dad or

199
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 1: a grandma who remember raises the athlete that you're trying

200
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: to recruit, What do they know about you? Once you're gone?

201
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: That makes them want to come here? Once I'm gone, Yeah,

202
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: once you leave the room, once you leave the house.

203
00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 10: Just then I'm authentic, Like I'm the same guy today

204
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 10: that I was, you know, twenty years ago. I hope

205
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 10: that's what people can always say about me, that just

206
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 10: because positions have changed and situations changed, that I'm the

207
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 10: same person and that family.

208
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 6: Matters to me.

209
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 10: I think if you're in the room with me for

210
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 10: ten minutes, you're probably gonna hear about my boys and

211
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 10: my wife, and that's something that's important to me. And

212
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 10: that we treat the players on our team the same way.

213
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 3: Sometimes I'll see and I have a little warehouse. We do.

214
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: I have a little clothing line. It's we do a

215
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: lot of charity work with our clothing line. And we

216
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: have one of those little machines that Prince Olta shirts.

217
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: I feel like here there's like a one of those,

218
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: you know, apparel printing machines.

219
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: You just get anything you want printed.

220
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: Is it on campus or do you have to have

221
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: a ship to you because it's NonStop everything's Nike, Oregon everything.

222
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's a good setup. You know, we've got an

223
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 10: awesome relationship with Nike.

224
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 3: I don't know about that's the White House here though,

225
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 3: right I couldn't.

226
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 6: I couldn't answer that.

227
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 3: That's a secret.

228
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 6: I know this when I show up to my locker and.

229
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 10: I open it up, there's there's a stuff, and that's

230
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 10: it's pretty awesome. Like I said, Kenny Fard does a

231
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 10: great job of taking care of our staff.

232
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 6: And our players. Yeah, we don't run out of gear.

233
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 10: I didn't used to consider myself a shoe guy, and

234
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 10: now now I got too many.

235
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 3: Shoes without identifying anyone.

236
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: Were there ever colors that you just didn't like wearing

237
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: because you didn't like the colors? Not here, not Oregon

238
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: in other schools you've been at, because some if I

239
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: had to wear orange, I'll be honest with you, burnt

240
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 1: or Tennessee orange, I might quit just for that.

241
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 10: Yeah, I guess color never been that. I've never been

242
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 10: that much of a fashionista. I'm not a big fan

243
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 10: of purple, but beyond that, I'm pretty good with any color.

244
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 3: I guess, so light purple probably wouldn't be your jam.

245
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 6: Not m cham like the U c.

246
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 3: A Bears, you wouldn't go coach at UC.

247
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:27,559
Speaker 6: I would go.

248
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 10: I'll coach where there's a job. I'm not going to

249
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 10: make my decisions based off of color.

250
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 8: But luckily for me, I found my last job you

251
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,480

259
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,839

261
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 6: my family.

262
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 3: Then I'll run through a couple and then coach, what

263
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 3: did you learn from him?

264
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 6: Consistency? You know, the guy's a robot.

265
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 10: He Uh, every morning he's rolling in the office the

266
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 10: exact same time.

00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 6: You know.

269
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 10: His his routine was really impressive to see, whether it's

00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 10: what he's eating every morning or every lunch, the way

271
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 10: he operates day in and day out was was really impressive.

00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 10: Coach smart, yeah, just uh, enthusiasm, passion, intelligence, ability to adapt.

273
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 10: Always thought he was on the cutting edge of things

274
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 10: and always looking for an edge.

275
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 5: I mean, bones is rolling through all these great coaches

276
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 5: that you worked with, the schools, but he's forgetting Sam

277
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 5: Houston State, we're probably the best school in America.

278
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 10: About the donut shops in Huntsville, Oh, the best, the best,

279
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 10: And I think her cap at a donut shops per talent,

280
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 10: I think it's gotta be one of the hut.

281
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 9: What was your I mean, what was that experience? Like

282
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 9: a lot of people are gonna want to hear about this.

283
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, for social Yeah.

284
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 10: So I worked with Casey Keeler was the head coach there,

285
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 10: and that was that was a great coach to be under.

286
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 10: He really gave you an opportunity to figure out how.

287
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 6: You want to do things. You know, he let his

288
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 6: coaches coach.

289
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 10: He'd push you, he'd questioned you, but he gave you

290
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 10: an opportunity to go, you know, make it what you

291
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 10: wanted to make it. So your dB meeting that day,

292
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 10: your corners meeting that day, it was, you know, how

293
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 10: do you want to build it?

294
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 6: What do you want to look like? The drill work

295
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 6: you did.

296
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 10: On the field, and you make some mistakes, but you

297
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 10: also learned a lot in the process. So I love

298
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 10: my time there at SAM and it's you know, it's it.

299
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 10: It wasn't the bus league at that time, but you

300
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 10: take some long road trips, you know, you do hop

301
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 10: on a charter bus from time to time.

302
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,119
Speaker 6: To get the places.

303
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 10: And you know, that's something that I think everybody should

304
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 10: experience in their coaching career.

305
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 3: Going to Sam Houston, keeping it real. I think everybody

306
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:36,719
Speaker 3: should go to SAM.

307
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,719
Speaker 9: That's at some point, That's all I says.

308
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 8: Everybody must go to Sam Houston State to coach at

309
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 8: some point. Now, I think you know, my wife and

310
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 8: I have this discussion too. We met at a restaurant

311
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 8: we worked at out back steakhouse together. And I think

312
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 8: the other thing that everybody should do is some point

313
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 8: you should work in the service industry. You should get stiffed,

314
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 8: at some point, you should get an unbelievable tip, at

315
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 8: some point you should, you know, learn how to you know,

316

00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 3: Out and it's not even waiter's fault, but sometimes you

320
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 3: have to be.

321
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 1: Sometimes like the head coach, like it an't always your fault,

322
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: but you got to take it and go and take responsibility.

323
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 10: Can you solve a problem? Yeah, can you solve a problem?

324
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 10: So that's something else that you know. I'm a big

325
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 10: believer in that everybody should have to do that at

326
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:14,960

Speaker 1: as a GA in twenty seventeen, so he's been there

334
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,880

336
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,199
Speaker 1: got a bye. It's pretty awesome. We really enjoyed Coach Danielson.

337
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: Here he is coach Spencer Danielson. What is your man

338
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: cave like at home or your office? You know, because

339
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 1: a lot you probably have a lot of screens and

340
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: you can easily just say it's an office, like, what

341
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: is your place like at home?

342

Speaker 3: Coach?

343
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 15: I'll be honest, guys, I don't have a man cave.

344
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 15: I got two little girls, a three and a half

345
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 15: year old and a two and a half year old.

346
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 15: So the spare room we have is filled with dressed

347
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 15: up elsa from Frozen. There's a little kitchen in there

348
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 15: with a bunch of fake food. So when I come home, man,

349
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 15: I joke with people that the beautiful thing about being

350
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 15: a girl dad is you know how much those.

351
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 4: Two little girls care about football? Not one bit?

352
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 15: You know when I come home. Literally last night, I

353
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 15: came home and my wife bought this t Rex dress

354
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 15: up costume that my three year old was ready to

355
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 15: scare me when I walked.

356
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 7: In the door.

357
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 15: So it's you know, it's so cool to be able

358
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 15: to blend those things, especially as a coach. You have to,

359
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 15: I mean my girls come to practice a ton. I

360
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 15: want our coach to bring their families around. So at home,

361
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 15: I don't really got the bad caveto my wife. I'll

362
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 15: put whatever game's on in the in the living room

363
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 15: and I'll be, you know, watching the girls, and then

364
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 15: this out this side of my as.

365
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 4: I'll be watching some football. But it's my wife's a

366
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 4: rock star.

367
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 15: I mean we met in college at a Zuza Pacific,

368
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 15: which I'm sure you guys have never heard of.

369
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 4: It's okay, it's the Harvard.

370
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 15: Of the West, and you know, it's just it's been

371
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 15: an awesome just experience for us through the year. This

372
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 15: is year number eight for us at Boise, So this

373
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 15: has really become home. Like it's a great place to

374
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 15: live and thrive. And everything I do is to impact

375
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 15: these kids. And I'm open about my faith. I talked

376
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 15: to our players about loving Jesus a lot, and some

377
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 15: people don't like that. I'm like, well, this is me.

378
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 4: It's my foundation, and so just so hombled and blessed

379
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 4: to be here and be a part of it.

380
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: How do you find time to be a good husband

381
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: during season? I travel a lot. If I'm either doing

382
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: stand up or whatever, project. I'm on the road a lot,

383
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: but my wife and I really have dedicated like Tuesday

384
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: evenings even for like four hours, we specifically have that time.

385
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: Now for you, it could possibly be different during the

386
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: season than not, But how do you make sure you

387
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: can still dedicate some time to your wife and family

388
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: during a football season.

389
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 15: Yeah, so much of it is just and I'm working

390
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 15: on it every single day. I'm not gonna sit here

391
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 15: and say that I got to figure it out by

392
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 15: any means.

393
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 4: We're going on year ten of marriage, and first off

394
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 4: is a testament to my wife. She's a rock star.

395
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 15: But I mean Coach Pete's a huge mentor of mine.

396
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 15: And you know something I've took it from him is

397
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 15: just blending your home life with you do it with football,

398
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 15: and then you just got to be intentional. So like

399
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 15: even in a game week situation like Sundays, I try

400
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 15: to make sure I get home Sundays, make sure I

401
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 15: get dinner with the family and put our girls to sleep,

402
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 15: like that's a non negotiable. Tuesdays after practice, me and

403
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 15: my wife outside.

404
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 4: Of Boise, we gotta right our outside of our facility.

405
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 14: There's a river.

406
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 15: Me and my wife on Tuesdays after practice, will go

407
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 15: on a thirty minute walk and just talk about life,

408
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 15: how the girls are doing, how she's doing. We have

409
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 15: a we're expecting another baby in March, so kind of

410
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 15: going through how she's feeling. And then on Thursday night

411
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 15: is date night for us. And then depending if it's

412
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 15: home or away, kind of going through those things. And

413
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 15: then so much of it is trying to get our

414
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 15: you know, my girls and my wife in the facility,

415
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 15: around around our players, because not just for the connection

416
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 15: with me and my family, but I think one for

417
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 15: our kids to see us working, because even as a

418
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 15: young kids, they just you're either home or you're at work, right,

419
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 15: there's not sometimes they can't even calculate why is my

420
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 15: dad not here? Or I want them to see what

421
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 15: their dad's doing, and I want them to see there's

422
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 15: quality and hard work, like hard work means a lot, like.

423
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 4: There's no substitute for it. And I also want our players.

424
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 15: A lot of our players come from home situations where

425
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 15: they didn't have a dad. I mean they're raised by

426
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 15: their mom, their auntie, their grandma, maybe a coach. So

427
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 15: I want them not that we're perfect examples. We're working

428
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 15: our tailoft always improved, but I want them to see

429
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 15: what a husband and a father looks like.

430
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 4: We got players in our team that are dads. Want

431
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 4: them to see what this looks like.

432
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 15: Not perfect, it's not about perfection, but seeing us in

433
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 15: that space. For our players to be around, those things

434
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 15: are huge. So try and be very intentional with the

435
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 15: time we have, especially in season, and make sure that

436
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 15: it's on my schedule. This is my time with my wife,

437
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 15: or this is the time that I'm doing this.

438
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 4: And try to stick to as much we can.

439
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: We have a lot of parents that will listen to

440
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: the show and talk about and ask questions about.

441
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 3: Their kids playing sports.

442
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: Would you prefer a kid play a bunch of sports

443
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 1: or really dedicate themselves to one.

444
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 4: I would love.

445
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 15: Someone to play as many sports as they can. I'm

446
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 15: such a firm and just playing as many sports as

447
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 15: you can from the youngest age you can play them.

448
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 4: And I just think being able to build the overall

449
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 4: athlete is such a big deal.

450
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 15: And I see all the way through high school, like

451
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 15: I love like we I want to recruit guys that

452
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 15: run track, play basketball, baseball because it just shows the

453
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 15: different skill set that they're into and especially even more

454
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 15: college has become college footballs becoming even so much more specific,

455
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 15: and they are recruiting where guys are getting offers as

456
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 15: freshman high school. We don't do a lot of that

457
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 15: because we're a developmental program. I got to see how

458
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 15: you're developing from fourteen to fifteen to sixteen years old,

459
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 15: to see what that fit is. And I want to

460
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 15: see someone you know, running track playing basketball, because I

461
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 15: think there's you're building an overall athletic skill set, not

462
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 15: maybe just so specific to what you're doing on the

463
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 15: high school football field.

464
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, coach, he's talking about parents, you know. So at

465
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 5: the middle school level, high school level, you're dealing with

466
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 5: a lot of parents is getting involved with their kids,

467
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 5: and the coaches have to deal with that. What about

468
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 5: the college level, do you have to deal with parents

469
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 5: of players and tell them like, whoh, I got this.

470
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 4: I'd say a little bit more of the door. I

471
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 4: mean so for me, I mean just and.

472
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 15: Once again I say this stuff by no means that

473
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 15: I got to figure out. It's just my heart and

474
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 15: it's who God made me. When I say we're a

475
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 15: developmental program, you need to make sure everybody's involved in

476
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 15: developing these kids. So when when with our players, I

477
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,159
Speaker 15: zoom with our parents once a month. So once a

478
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 15: month there's a zoom set where every parent will get

479
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 15: on a zoom we'll talk about our team, where we're at.

480
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 15: Every week, my assistant will send out a weekly newsletter

481
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 15: kind of like.

482
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 4: Hey, these are some highlights from the week. These are

483
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 4: some guys that are you know, doing some really good things.

484
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 4: Blah blah blah.

485
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 15: And then I'm involved with our parents like and I

486
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 15: don't I don't talk much about playing time, but I

487
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 15: tell me, if you are concerned and you're frustrated, I

488
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 15: want you to call me and not sit on those

489
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 15: things because I want to be able to be real

490
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 15: and open with them. I believe in truth, and so

491
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 15: if a parent is frustrated that their teams should be

492
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 15: or their sons should be playing more, I want them

493
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,679
Speaker 15: to call me because I'd rather tell you this is

494
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 15: why your son is not These are the things that

495
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 15: he's struggling in because they're only getting one side of

496
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 15: the story. They're getting the story that you know. I'm

497
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 15: not playing because of these things. I want to give

498
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 15: them the truth of this is where we need your.

499
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 4: Son to grow.

500
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 15: And so I want to keep the lines of communication open,

501
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 15: and especially in this you know, new landscape of college

502
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 15: football with the transfer portal, is I want our parents

503
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 15: to know exactly what we're doing and how we're developing

504
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 15: their sons. And I believe that we're going to develop

505
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 15: their sons better than any other school. Maybe other schools

506
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 15: can offer them other things, but there's not going to

507
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 15: be a place that they're going to develop more.

508
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 4: And I think being.

509
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 15: On the same page with these parents and just being

510
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 15: intentional to be upfront with them, and that's where that's

511
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 15: why I zoom with them once a month so they

512
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 15: can know my messaging.

513
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 4: This is what when.

514
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 15: We talk about practice performance like, this is what I mean.

515
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 15: So if your son is performing in practice, you're going

516
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 15: to see him play more in the game. If your

517
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 15: son is not playing in the game, you know that

518
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 15: that's probably because he's not performing.

519
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 4: The way we need him to in practice.

520
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 15: So I'm intentional to be truthful with our parents to

521
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 15: know the landscape so then they can filter through some

522
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 15: of the information they're maybe getting from their sons.

523
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: If there's a concert coming to Boise and who is

524
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 1: it that you will not miss?

525
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 15: Oh, good question, I'm probably more on the on the

526
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 15: country side of things. I don't listen to a ton

527
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 15: of music. I listened to a lot of worship music.

528
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 15: I like Elevation Maverick City are two of my favorite

529
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 15: worship band. But I'd say like country artists. I'm a

530
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 15: huge Luke Holms guy. He came to the Blue a

531
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 15: couple of years ago. Didn't miss it.

532
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 4: Who else would I say? I like Morgan wall And.

533
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 15: If there's a if there's a country concert coming to

534
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 15: boise Ido and we're not doing football, I'm gonna I

535
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 15: finally got some cowboy boots this offseason, so you better

536
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,120
Speaker 15: believe that I'm gonna be I'll be rocket those.

537
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 1: To final question, do you ever just want to give

538
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: yourself the game ball in front of everybody?

539
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 4: Give it to me, boys, look at me. This is

540
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 4: what I got going up. I mean, I'll be honest, No,

541
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 4: i'd either's.

542
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 15: I mean, I just I'm one of those guys that's

543
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 15: probably overly emotional, Like every time I talk to our team,

544
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 15: I gotta fight crying because I just love these kids.

545
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 4: I mean, I see the work they put in, the

546
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:23,679
Speaker 4: grind they do.

547
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 15: I mean, when it's January, Ashon gent's doing up downs

548
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 15: in the snow, and then you see them do what

549
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,479
Speaker 15: they do. That's why I mean after these games, I'm

550
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 15: emotional because you know, I I just am so respectful

551
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 15: of our players not running from hard work, not taking

552
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 15: the easy road, doing you know, really enjoying hard stuff.

553
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 15: And I think that's uncommon in college football right now.

554
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 15: And I'm not saying that makes us better perfect by

555
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 15: any means, but I do think. You know, Boise State

556
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 15: is built on this blue collar mentality, and our players

557
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 15: do that every day. That doesn't mean that we're gonna

558
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 15: win every game. It means that we're gonna give ourselves

559
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 15: a good shot. So I could say after the games

560
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 15: that I haven't had that fight in my heart. I've

561
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 15: been giving a couple and I'm like, man, give this

562
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,479
Speaker 15: to the guy that just score five touchdown.

563
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 4: I didn't do anything. I'm a I'm a glorified cheerleader.

564
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 1: Coach, we really appreciate the time we're rooting for you.

565
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 4: I appreciate you.

566
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 1: Moving on to Marcus Freeman, he's the head coach at

567
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 1: Notre Dame, and he made me feel like I could

568
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 1: go play at Notre Dame right now totally. I probably

569
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: wouldn't because it's cold. And that's the only reason I

570
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: could for him. I can play linebacker. I'm not going

571
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 1: to play that anywhere. It's freezing cold there. But man,

572
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: this dude he played linebacker at Ohio State.

573
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 3: He was the.

574
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: Defensive coordinator, and then when Brian Kelly left to go

575
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: to LSU, he became the inne Roman, then the head coach.

576
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he still looks like he can go right now.

577
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: So Marcus Freeman from Notre Dame. Here is Coach Freeman. Hey, coach,

578
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: thank you very much for the time.

579
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 7: We really appreciate it absolutely, man, glad to be on here.

580
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 1: Question number one, when you're recruiting a kid, do they

581
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 1: ever say it's just too cold up there?

582
00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 3: Coach?

583
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,200
Speaker 12: If they say that, I probably turn away as fast

584
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 12: as I can. You know, I let them know that. Listen, man,

585
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 12: we got jackets, we have indoor stadium, an indoor practice facility.

586
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 12: I'm from the north, I'm from Ohio, a Midwest guy,

587
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 12: and so listen, cold is cold, and you don't ever

588
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,199
Speaker 12: get used to it. You just got to put on

589
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 12: more clothes and at some point you'll you'll figure it out.

590
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 12: But you know, most kids that say, coach, I can't

591
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 12: play in the cold. You know right away you're not

592
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 12: going to get them.

593
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 3: What's like the trick to catching balls in the cold.

594
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: I know you look at me and you go, that

595
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: guy was a heck of a high school receiver, and coach,

596
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: I accept that. Thank you for saying that in your mind.

597
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 1: But I always struggle catching balls in the cold. I

598
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,439
Speaker 1: catch balls in the warm, but catching balls in the cold, like,

599
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 1: what is the key to catching a ball in cold weather?

600
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 12: You know, I think you've got to try to keep

601
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 12: your hands warm, Like, if your hands are frozen, you're

602
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 12: not going to be a great pass catcher. And so

603
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 12: you know, obviously hand warmers, they have those, the handwarmers

604
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 12: that you were outside of your uniform. But in between plays,

605
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 12: it's really important to keep your hands warm, and so

606
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,919
Speaker 12: you have to use different things to make sure that happens.

607
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 12: That that might be handwarmers inside your glove, that might

608
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 12: be a couple of different things. But if your hands

609
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 12: are frozed, you're not gonna catch that ball.

610
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 3: Can you wear doctors gloves inside of a glove?

611
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, there's some players that do that. There's some coaches

612
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 7: that do that.

613
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: Dang that's what I would do, because we'd be in

614
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 1: the deer woods and I wear doctors gloves underneath gloves,

615
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: and I was made fun of. Do you guys make

616
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: fun of people who do that? Because if so, I

617
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: take offense.

618
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 13: Not.

619
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,360
Speaker 12: As as long as you get your job done, nobody's

620
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 12: gonna make funey. You always say there's no there's no

621
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 12: such thing as a cold tough guy. And so you

622
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 12: know if you're if you're cold, you're cold. You're not

623
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 12: being a tough guy. So do whatever it takes and

624
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 12: make sure you're warm.

625
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 1: Now you're gonna be humble here. I would prefer you not,

626
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,439
Speaker 1: but maybe we can meet somewhere in the middle. Do

627
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 1: you think you could play a solid two to three

628
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: minutes a game right now you've said enough.

629
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 3: Enough?

630
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 12: Yeah, it depends on what the offense is doing. But yeah, listen,

631
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 12: I mean, my pride is telling me I could give

632
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 12: you two to three minutes. The outcome might be something

633
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 12: that the offensive defense doesn't want, but you, my pride

634
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,959
Speaker 12: tells me, yeah, I could play a couple of plays.

635
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: If you win a big game, how quickly do you

636
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,360
Speaker 1: go home? Do you have a bit of family time

637
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,640
Speaker 1: at home or do you get right to film that

638
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: evening depending on who the next opponent is.

639
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, I go right away. That's just who I am.

640
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 12: If it's an away game, I make sure I evaluate

641
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 12: the game on the plane as we come back. If

642
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 12: it's a home game, I come right into my office.

643
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 12: For me, it's hard to go home and have family

644
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 12: time when I haven't evaluated the previous game. So I

645
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 12: evaluate that game right away and take some notes and

646
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 12: then go and have a little bit of family time

647
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 12: and come in on Sunday, and now you can be

648
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:46,880
Speaker 12: ready to move on to the next opponent.

649
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,880
Speaker 1: Tell me about Riley Leonard as a dude.

650
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 12: He's awesome man. He is just a great human being.

651
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 12: He's a great teammate. There's not enough compliments that I

652
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 12: can give him, but he is a wonderful for individual.

653
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,159
Speaker 1: So after the loss at Northern Illinois, what was the

654
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 1: big takeaway that has changed this team for the good?

655
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 7: I think it's just the mindset that we have to have.

656
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 12: And I said this to the media on the Monday

657
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,640
Speaker 12: after that game, is that this is the first time

658
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 12: for me as the head coach of my three years

659
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 12: that we won that big game early. You know, we

660
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 12: lost to Ohio State the past two years early in

661
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 12: the season, and it was kind of like you were

662
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 12: humbled and you got to make sure you're getting ready

663
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 12: for the next opponent. But this time we won the

664
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 12: big one early over Texas A and M. And I

665
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 12: think as we look back, we didn't have the right mindset,

666
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,880
Speaker 12: the mental approach to this game. And I don't think

667
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 12: anybody in this program believed that we could lose the

668
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 12: Northern Illinois. And you know, sometimes you have too much

669
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 12: pride and you get humbled, and we were humbled. And

670
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 12: I think I often tell this group in this program,

671
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 12: like we have to keep that pain and we have

672
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 12: to remember what it was like to lose that game.

673
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,199
Speaker 12: And so we can never lack in the mental approach

674
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 12: to the preparation. It's not just a physical approach, it's

675
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 12: a mental approach. And we know if we don't prepare

676
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,919
Speaker 12: the right way and respect our opponents the way we should,

677
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 12: then we can be beat by anybody in the country.

678
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 12: And so that's what we got to understand. And it's

679
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 12: you know, easy at first to have that mindset. And

680
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 12: now you've had a couple of wins, and you know

681
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 12: people are telling you how good this.

682
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 7: Team is, but we got to keep that same mindset.

683
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,680
Speaker 7: It's just this is who we are.

684
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 12: We're not going back to who we used to be,

685
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 12: and we got to approach every week with the right mindset.

686
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: I feel like once in Churchill's pretty cool when I

687
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: like read what he had to say. I feel like

688
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 1: sometimes I listen to Gary Vee and let's talk about

689
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: sports cards. Who is it that you can listen to

690
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: talk and it can really fire you up or kind

691
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:41,959
Speaker 1: of reset you.

692
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,439
Speaker 12: Oh man, you know there's a couple of people, you know,

693
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 12: every once in a while, listen.

694
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 7: To a motivational speech.

695
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 12: You know, we played a Kobe Bryant video the other day,

696
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 12: just talking about the mindset. I might listen to a

697
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 12: sermon by TD Jakes or something like that. I'll listen

698
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 12: to a coach. I talked to my college coach, Jim

699
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 12: Tressel often, who helps, you know, with my mental approach

700
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 12: as the head coach and the leader each week. But

701
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 12: I think you can grab wisdom from anybody, and it's

702
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 12: all about you know, are you humble enough to accept

703
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 12: the wisdom that's out there?

704
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: Do you still call coach Tressell coach?

705
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 7: Absolutely? I always will and.

706
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 1: That's pretty cool. What about your high school coach, You

707
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: still call him coach?

708
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 7: I call him coach.

709
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 6: That's right.

710
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 12: I think once you have a coach, like especially somebody

711
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 12: that's older than you and that's impacted you in a

712
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 12: strong way, like they're always coach to you, and no

713
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 12: matter how long or how old you get, you know

714
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 12: they're always going to be coach.

715
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 1: Notre Dame known for their traditional uniforms. We know who

716
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,479
Speaker 1: it is when we see it immediately in the land, though,

717
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: of everybody wanting ten thousand uniforms, any idea to put

718
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: like a couple of hearts on the side of the helmet,

719
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: or like just like one game, like switch it up

720
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: a couple of lightning bolts like or is it just.

721
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 3: We are who we are, We're not changing.

722
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 12: Listen, there's a little bit of both, right, the the

723
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 12: old traditionalists. You know, every year we wear green jerseys,

724
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 12: and I don't have to be on social media to

725
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 12: hear sometimes the complaints.

726
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 7: Sometimes even within this building.

727
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 12: We have some guys that played here that just love

728
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 12: the tradition Notre Dame, and I can tell it kind

729
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 12: of turns their stomach when they see us in green

730
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 12: or wear a different combination. But I think part of

731
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 12: it is that we have to remember what our tradition is.

732
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 7: Like those gold.

733
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 12: Helmets, the normal home and away uniforms is something that

734
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 12: makes us unique. But the young people like a little

735
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 12: bit of flavor, and so I think you can be

736
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 12: somewhere in the middle where you let your your players

737
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 12: and your captains kind of determine what they want to

738
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 12: wear for that week. But at the same point, let's

739
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 12: not get too far away from the tradition.

740
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 3: What about people not wearing knee pads?

741
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 1: Do you ever like put pads in?

742
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 7: No?

743
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 12: I mean, listen as you looking in NFL, some of

744
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 12: those guys don't wear knee or dipads, and.

745
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,239
Speaker 7: You know, it depends on what position you are.

746
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 12: If you're a ball carrier, uh, you probably should have

747
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 12: knee pads in. But a lot of guys on defense,

748
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 12: you know, there's not a whole bunch of cup blocks

749
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 12: anymore unless you're playing Navy and Army. Knee pads can

750
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 12: be overrated at times, but it's all based on the

751
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 12: position you play.

752
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: What if one of your guys want to wear like

753
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: the old school single bar, like Dick Bucke's helmet is

754
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: like coaches, would you allow that?

755
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 7: The only things you better be tough.

756
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 12: Now, if you're gonna wear one of those homes, you

757
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 12: better be tough and represent what that means. But as

758
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 12: long as you go do your job and you're tough,

759
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 12: I'm good with whatever you wear.

760
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 1: I would play for you. I say this all the time.

761
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: I know you're not here, but I would play for you,

762
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: even though you would never let me. But like, I

763
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: watch you and I'm like, that's a dude that I'm

764
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 1: not like at all because I'm not near as tough

765
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: or cool or good looking.

766
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 3: But I would like to play for him. So congratulations, coach.

767
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 7: That means a love.

768
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 3: I appreciate you.

769
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 7: I love to host you here anytime.

770
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 13: Man.

771
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 3: All right, long as it's not cold. All right, coach,

772
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 3: see you money?

773
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 7: All right, brother, take care?

774
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: All right, let's pick our parlay of the week NFL. Okay,

775
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: here's the deal. I'm gonna do money lines. We're doing

776
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: four money lines. And some of these money lines might

777
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: seem a little easier than others and some will not be.

778
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: But I'm going all money lines. I'm feeling pretty good

779
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 1: about these, and we're gonna go first jets at bills

780
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: which is probably the easiest. If I'm money lining it,

781
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 1: it's probably the easiest money line ever. Or is it

782
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: You ready to be shocked? Naw, you shouldn't be. All right,

783
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: Bill's money line easy. They're still trying to get that

784
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: buy over in the AFC. We're going Bill's money line.

785
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 1: Now we're gonna go Packers money line over the Vikings.

786
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: So you heard what I said. Okay, and it's in Minnesota.

787
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: Like I said, the Bills one was easy, that was

788
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: the one, no problem. Packers money line over Vikings.

789
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 9: This was a little scary. Bones, of course, some.

790
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 3: Gotta be scary.

791
00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: We're going Colts money line over the Giant, and you go, well,

792
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: that can be pretty simple. But Anthony Richardson, he's a

793
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: different person every game. And then finally Raiders money line

794
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: over the Saints.

795
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 9: I think about that. Oh gosh, what a toilet bowl?

796
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: What a toilet bowl?

797
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 9: That's why, Hey, you know what, dude, if you believe

798
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 9: in it, do it.

799
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: We did a four gamer because I think that's that's

800
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,840

822
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: and just hadn't beat Bamman forty years. But we love

823
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: Coach Lee. We had spent time with him in the past,

824
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 1: got to know him a little bit. He had come

825
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: to one of my shows before my comedy shows, came

826
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: on stage, talked a little bit. It was really great.

827
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: We were super pumped too, because this was right after

828
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: Bama and everybody was trying to get him on and

829
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,560

00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 3: What do you even say? Coach come on?

833
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 13: Oh man, I've had to fight and move past that.

834
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 16: You could relive that night, you know, every day for

835
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,359
Speaker 16: the rest of your life, if you if you had

836
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 16: your choice.

837
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 13: But we got to move on now.

838
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 3: I hear you.

839
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 1: But okay, well before I move on, let's have ten

840
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: minutes with us.

841
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 3: What does your phone look like after that? Coach?

842
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 1: You go to your cell phone, you finally get to

843
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 1: it after everything, and what.

844
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 3: Does it look like?

845
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:22,840
Speaker 13: You know?

846
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 16: I changed my number in May, so over the years

847
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 16: kind of it made the rounds too many times, I think,

848
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 16: And so I was starting to get some kind of

849
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 16: odd ball texts in the springtime and I think changing

850
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 16: my number probably saved me another five hundred texts, you know,

851
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 16: but it was look you for all the for all

852
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 16: the times that you come back to your phone and

853
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 16: it's there's nothing there.

854
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 13: You know, you just you appreciate people wanting to celebrate

855
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 13: with you.

856
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 16: And I think there's there's so many people that you know,

857
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 16: over the years have like falled alongside me or supported

858
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 16: me in some way.

859
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 13: It's special to hear from them. You know, youppreciate that.

860
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: Okay, so what matchups did you say leading into that

861
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,360
Speaker 1: game that you felt like there was a chance you

862
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: could exploit or at least have advantages.

863
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:11,360
Speaker 16: You know, there weren't a lot of I mean, you know,

864
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 16: that's a tough game of tough matchups for us.

865
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 13: I mean, you know, that's a really skilled team.

866
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 16: I think, you know, offensively, we were just trying to

867
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 16: find the space to stay on schedule, and we knew

868
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 16: that if we could possess the ball that we were

869
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,839
Speaker 16: going to get a chance to get the ball up

870
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 16: and over the top. You know, they were going to

871
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 16: be opportunities for us to hit some shots, and we

872
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 16: were able to do that.

873
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 13: We missed on some too, but on the whole.

874
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 16: Offensively, it was about staying on schedule and a lot

875
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 16: of that channels obviously through our quarterback run and you know,

876
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 16: our run game is is pretty multiple. So I felt

877
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 16: like we were able to win physically at the point

878
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 16: of attack on offense and create the space we needed

879
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 16: to stay on schedule and that allowed us to extend

880
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 16: drives and have opportunities to puncture the end zone.

881
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:58,959
Speaker 13: Defensively, you know, this.

882
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 16: Was a game where we were we were really interested

883
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 16: in and stopping the quarterbacks ability to extend the plays

884
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 16: with his feet. Obviously, we knew that the explosive passing

885
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 16: game was going to run through number two and you know,

886
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 16: we were just trying to a limit their opportunities by

887
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 16: possessing the ball with our offense and then be you know,

888
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:24,919
Speaker 16: absorb some of their plays without allowing to score explosive touchdowns.

889
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 13: We we did that well enough, you know, to end

890
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:29,879
Speaker 13: up winning the game.

891
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,919
Speaker 16: I think there's a few a few we went back,

892
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 16: specifically the third down that they were able to get

893
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 16: the ball over top of us, and again credit to them,

894
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 16: they made the play they needed to make. But you know,

895
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,320
Speaker 16: we we we got some things to tighten up defensively,

896
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,919
Speaker 16: but what we needed to have happened was we set

897
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 16: a ten possession game, which it ended up being nine

898
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 16: possessions for their offense, you know, we needed to be

899
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 16: able to punch and counter punch, so you know, we

900
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:59,240
Speaker 16: needed to sync up at the right times with with offense,

901
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 16: defense especial teams. We did that, you know, created a

902
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 16: couple of turnovers that were that were huge for us

903
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 16: one including the pick six, and then we needed to

904
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 16: win on special teams and we needed to create a

905
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 16: fuel position advantage, forced them to go to the long field,

906
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 16: try to get us on the short.

907
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 13: Field, and then again we were able to accomplish that

908
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 13: as well.

909
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:22,479
Speaker 16: That's kind of the makings of, you know, what would

910
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,919
Speaker 16: be a winning performance for us against anybody. Certainly when

911
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 16: you're playing a team like Alabama, you can't you know,

912
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 16: you can't miss on your strategy and think you're gonna

913
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 16: have a chance to win it.

914
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: When you go on at halftime, did you make macro

915
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 1: adjustments or did you just reinforce what you had already

916
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: set pre game.

917
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 16: A lot of it is just kind of looking at what,

918
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 16: you know, what is the plan that they had for us,

919
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 16: and let's make sure we're clear on what those things are.

920
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 16: You know, Defensively, it's like the special formations that you're

921
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 16: seeing that they know.

922
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 13: They're going to come back to.

923
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 16: Offensively, it's you know, how are they defending the option,

924
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 16: how are they defending your replays? And what are they

925
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 16: what are they doing in their box that tells you

926
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 16: this is kind of their plan moving forward. And then

927
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 16: to the team, you know, it really was to me

928
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,920
Speaker 16: about kind of almost kind of taking some of the

929
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 16: emotion out of the moment, which I.

930
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 13: Know sounds weird.

931
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 16: I mean, look, I'm a I get excited and fired

932
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 16: up and can get emotional in the game. I just

933
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 16: felt like we needed to focus on the fact that

934
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 16: we've been in this situation before that you know, it's

935
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 16: not going to take anything extra from us to close

936
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:33,799
Speaker 16: the game out. You know, we needed to come back

937
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 16: out and focus on again our strategy, playing the cleaning game,

938
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 16: you know, and just stop by stop possession by possession,

939
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 16: you know, closing the game out. So we took our

940
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 16: time before we left the locker room just to kind

941
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 16: of like everyone settle, focus on what we want to

942
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 16: accomplish here in the next thirty minutes and a credit

943
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 16: to our team.

944
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:55,840
Speaker 13: You know they did just that.

945
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 3: Is Diego just like a dog. He seems like a dog.

946
00:38:58,160 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll watch him. I'm just like that dude

947
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 3: goes home.

948
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean it's a He's a unique competitive personality,

949
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 16: Like there's not another one that I've ever come across

950
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 16: that is as you know. I think the one thing

951
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 16: that can get a little misunderstood about him is like,

952
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 16: this is a really serious.

953
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 13: Guy who is such discipline in his process.

954
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 16: I mean he's so steady and consistent in our building

955
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 16: and day and day out, you won't even.

956
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 13: Know he's around.

957
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 16: I mean he's it's not like he's the loudest guy

958
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 16: in the room. It's not like he's looking for the attention.

959
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 16: I mean he just he.

960
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,720
Speaker 13: Sits front and center of every team meeting.

961
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,320
Speaker 16: He's right in front of me every time after practice

962
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 16: on a knee, locked in and focused.

963
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,280
Speaker 13: He carries my message to the team.

964
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,840
Speaker 16: He builds confidence in the locker room by making subtle

965
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 16: connections with players and creating closeness that way. But when

966
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 16: he crosses the lines, he just has a swagger about

967
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 16: him and it's infectious. Everyone sees it and believes in it,

968
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 16: and you use the word dog, like he's a dog

969
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 16: you want the ball on his hands in critical moments.

970
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 16: He's proven throughout his career and certainly in his time

971
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,879
Speaker 16: here that every time he takes a.

972
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 13: Snap, you have a chance to win. So we're glad

973
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 13: he's on our team.

974
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 16: And for me personally, I mean, this guy represent everything

975
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 16: I want this program to be about. And he's helping

976
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 16: us put a product on the field that's fun and

977
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 16: exciting and and you know.

978
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 13: He gets a lot of credit and he should. I

979
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 13: think that.

980
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 16: You know, the other guys that are playing alongside him

981
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 16: have done a really good job, especially in our front,

982
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 16: to open up space receivers, blocking down field. We just

983
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 16: have such a different competitive makeup offensively and defensively right now.

984
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 13: That's helping us find ways to win.

985
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: Only got a couple of minutes love with you, and

986
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 1: we appreciate you fitting a sin because everybody wants to

987
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: talk to you.

988
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,480
Speaker 3: Bell of the ball is what I would say. Got

989
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 3: you are the bell of the ball right now. How

990
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 3: in the world.

991
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: And I know you're going to find a way to

992
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: do it. But Kentucky, you have Kentucky coming up. I mean,

993
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 1: this is the big subs that I've seen in maybe

994
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 1: my life one of them. But how in the world

995
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 1: do you get your guys to forward face now after

996
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 1: being celebrated like so mightily over the last couple of days.

997
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think the real challenge is that the celebration

998
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,720
Speaker 16: won't stop. You know, we internally we've turned the page.

999
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 16: Yesterday we got to work on Kentucky. So now we

1000
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,439
Speaker 16: took time to enjoy in the team meeting, just kind

1001
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 16: of the fruits of our labor. You know, put some

1002
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 16: clips on film that I felt like showed the toughness

1003
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 16: we played with, celebrated players of the game, so on

1004
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 16: and so forth. But you know, we've we've made it clear,

1005
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,919
Speaker 16: and by the time we were leaving practice last night,

1006
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 16: you know, there's no room internally for us to you know,

1007
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 16: we you know, we burned the game and release it

1008
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:44,920
Speaker 16: to our past.

1009
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 13: It's over. Every ounce of our mental.

1010
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,239
Speaker 16: Energy needs to be focused on our next opponent, which

1011
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 16: is Kentucky, which is a really good SEC team.

1012
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 13: It's a tough team on defense.

1013
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 16: It's a team that knows how to run the football

1014
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 16: and has exposive playmakers on the perimeter. And you know,

1015
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:05,280
Speaker 16: Mark Stoops is the consummate program builder, and they've always

1016
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 16: been a tough out and they are going to be

1017
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 16: ready for us. I'm sure you know they're talking about

1018
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,840
Speaker 16: the last time we went up there, which was twenty

1019
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 16: twenty two, and we were able to pull off a win.

1020
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 16: Last year at our home stadium, we spotted them twenty

1021
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 16: one points all turnovers, which is a brutal way to play,

1022
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 16: and you know, we have a lot to prove in

1023
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 16: this game. I think inevitably, right our kids are going

1024
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 16: to class today and they're going to meet high fives

1025
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:39,240
Speaker 16: and congratulations on campus. Inevitably, there's going to be positive

1026
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 16: noise surrounding this program, which I think certainly can be

1027
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 16: a great thing. But we have to maintain the mental

1028
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 16: focus and discipline to realize that we can be respectful

1029
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 16: to all the people that are again celebrating the You know,

1030
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 16: what we put on film on Saturday and what we

1031
00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:02,280
Speaker 16: put on display, But Saturday only matters now, and we'll

1032
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,840
Speaker 16: only understand the meeting of Saturday from reflection at the

1033
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:06,919
Speaker 16: end of the season. It only matters if we're able

1034
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 16: to leverage it and pull momentum from it, and that

1035
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 16: means that we have to get back in our process

1036
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 16: and attack this process with commitment and energy so that

1037
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 16: we can be ready to play a good game against

1038
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 16: a really tough opponent on Saturday.

1039
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 1: Last ten seconds of this interview, we're gonna clap for me.

1040
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 3: Yes, how we end it right here, let's go.

1041
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,479
Speaker 1: I'm super happy for you, coach, super happy to see

1042
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 1: like the culture. I mean, it's a Cultures are like

1043
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: humongous boats. It doesn't matter the industry. It's like, yeah,

1044
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 1: it takes a while to turn it. It's not like

1045
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 1: a little car. It's a big old ship. And watching

1046
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 1: what you're able to do and what you're doing is

1047
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 1: really really been fun and motivating, even for myself. So

1048
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,919
Speaker 1: congratulations coach Man, thank you for the for the time

1049
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:49,400
Speaker 1: this morning.

1050
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 13: A great to be with you. Bobby always Man coach.

1051
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 1: Next up is Eli drink Witz from the University of Missouri.

1052
00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 1: Coach drink was a season ticket holder at the University

1053
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 1: of Arkansas and now just enjoys trolling the University of Arkansas.

1054
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 1: And I'm an Arkansas fan and had not been able

1055
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 1: to spend a little time with coach drink Witz and

1056
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: talkt to Coach drink here, I would be annoyed too,

1057
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: but I respect the troll game. But I love who

1058
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: he is. I'm a big fan.

1059
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 9: That was a fun interview, just that's the way you

1060
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 9: guys interact with each other.

1061
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 1: We also had to cut the first part of it off.

1062
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 1: If you guys remember he said some stuff at the

1063
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,360
Speaker 1: very beginning. Yeah, he didn't ask us to remove it,

1064
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:23,719
Speaker 1: but I felt it was better for all instead of

1065
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 1: a few clicks that we just eliminate that because he

1066
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 1: went after another SEC coach and I thought, I don't

1067
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:35,240
Speaker 1: know if he knew we were recording, but just in case.

1068
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, Coach Drink's awesome. Zara had a pretty good year.

1069
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: Didn't meet the expectations I think that they had on

1070
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 1: them at the beginning of the year as they were

1071
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 1: you know, I thought to be putting the CFP, but

1072
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: here he is coach Drink from Missouri. Let me ask

1073
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,840
Speaker 1: about bye weeks because I know what why players like

1074
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:52,320
Speaker 1: bye weeks?

1075
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 3: Why do coaches like bye weeks? What will you do differently?

1076
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 17: First off, you get to just take a deep breath.

1077
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,880
Speaker 11: You don't have this constant churning in your stomach like

1078
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 11: you know you got something on Saturday. It's going to

1079
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,320
Speaker 11: determine the happiness of about six and a half million people,

1080
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 11: including yourself, and you get to kind of be normal.

1081
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 11: Like my daughter had a volleyball game last night, and

1082
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:14,759
Speaker 11: so I got to go pick her up from the game.

1083
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 11: When the bus got back. I'll get to go watch

1084
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:22,280
Speaker 11: my daughter's T ball games on Thursday night. Saturday, another

1085
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 11: daughter's got two volleyball games in the morning, so you

1086
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,239
Speaker 11: got you just kind of get a sense of normalcy,

1087
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 11: and it's just a little bit of.

1088
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 17: A time to take a deep breath.

1089
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 11: I think from a football standpoint, you can actually work

1090
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:37,160
Speaker 11: on things.

1091
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,080
Speaker 17: You know, it's easy to say.

1092
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,359
Speaker 11: Hey, we got to get better this week, but when

1093
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 11: there's a game coming and you have all this game

1094
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 11: planning stuff you have to do, there's not a whole

1095
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 11: lot of just moments where you can focus on fundamentals

1096
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 11: and improvement because you've got to get the schemes in

1097
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 11: for that week.

1098
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 17: You've got to get the preparation in.

1099
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 11: But in a bye week, again, you don't have an

1100
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 11: opponent on Saturday, that opponent yourself, so there's really more

1101
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 11: time to focus on on Hey, this twenty minutes of

1102
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 11: practice is going to be specific to getting better. Five

1103
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 11: minutes on third downs, five minutes on team run five

1104
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 11: minutes on motion adjustments.

1105
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 14: So that's probably the best thing about it.

1106
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 3: Are you the bell of the ball in Columbia? Can

1107
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:14,879
Speaker 3: you grocery shop?

1108
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:17,319
Speaker 13: Yeah?

1109
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,440
Speaker 17: I can grocery shop. You find it funny?

1110
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,760
Speaker 11: The other day I was driving my car to stop

1111
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,319
Speaker 11: light and there were two college aged students who had

1112
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 11: their phone up next to the window taking a picture,

1113
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 11: and I just looked at him and was like, if

1114
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,879
Speaker 11: you'll just tell me, I'll smile for the picture. I'm

1115
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:36,840
Speaker 11: always worried that they're going to catch me picking my

1116
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,800
Speaker 11: nose or something while I'm driving or singing to myself

1117
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 11: in the car, but I'll say this, I don't let

1118
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 11: it affect me one way or the other. I just

1119
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:48,239
Speaker 11: know I got to wear a hat when I go

1120
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 11: to the grocery store instead of going all wild and free.

1121
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 1: I had a call or call the show and they

1122
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: were doing a paper on grit and she was like

1123
00:46:57,719 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 1: she got through the phone lines and she said, hey,

1124
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,400
Speaker 1: would you talk about what you think grit is? And

1125
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 1: I think my career has been mostly based off perseverance, right,

1126
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: like not doing a very good job and getting up

1127
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 1: again and doing it a little better and a little

1128
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 1: better because I've naturally not been that gifted at anything.

1129
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 1: How would you define grit and who are a couple

1130
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: of your grittiest players?

1131
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:18,359
Speaker 6: Man?

1132
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 11: I love that you asked this question. Gritz the stubborn

1133
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:22,839
Speaker 11: refusal to quit. I mean, that's all it is. It's

1134
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 11: just you refuse to give up, and it's passion plus

1135
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 11: perseverance over time, Like what are you willing to endure

1136
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 11: to accomplish what you want to accomplish. I think Brady

1137
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 11: obviously is a great example of grit. I think Cody

1138
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 11: Schrader last year was an extreme example of grit. I

1139
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,239
Speaker 11: think when you look at this year's running backs, Marcus Carroll,

1140
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,839
Speaker 11: Nate Noel, those two guys are really gritty players who

1141
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 11: had to overcome a lot and bet on themselves, refuse

1142
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 11: to give in to the outside noise to achieve what

1143
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:55,359
Speaker 11: they want to achieve. I think Johnny Walker defensive end

1144
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:58,280
Speaker 11: for me, came in at one hundred and ninety seven pounds,

1145
00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:01,319
Speaker 11: had four wisdom te t taking out within the first

1146
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 11: week of him being here, and now he weighs two

1147
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:04,280
Speaker 11: hundred and fifty six pounds.

1148
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:05,760
Speaker 17: Was the MVP of the Cotton Bowl.

1149
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 11: It took him four years to really earn significant playing time.

1150
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,879
Speaker 11: But instead of pouting, instead of trying to go into

1151
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:17,120
Speaker 11: a different situation, he just said, I'm going to sustain

1152
00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 11: excellence every day, and that's really what.

1153
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:21,239
Speaker 13: You have to do.

1154
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:22,400
Speaker 14: You know, we have.

1155
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 11: We had a group of Navy Seals come in and

1156
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,799
Speaker 11: they said winning is reserved for those who are willing

1157
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 11: to pay the price. And that's kind of our thought

1158
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 11: process this year, like what price are we willing to

1159
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 11: pay to win? And you've got to be willing to

1160
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:40,359
Speaker 11: outlast people. You've got to be willing to sustain it

1161
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 11: even when it's not going your way.

1162
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 5: Coach, at the end of the game, you know, I

1163
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 5: see the two coaches go and they meet each other.

1164
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 5: What can you possibly tell each other, especially if you've

1165
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 5: lost the game, Like what's that conversation like? Or do

1166
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 5: you are you thinking? Like what am I going to

1167
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 5: tell him? As I walk up there?

1168
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 11: You know, I've had some awkward conversations with the head

1169
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:06,840
Speaker 11: coaches across the deal. Honestly, you know, when you're the

1170
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 11: winning coach and you're going across the field to the

1171
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 11: guy who's lost, you realize and know.

1172
00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 17: How much pain they're in right then, and really.

1173
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 11: All I'm trying to do is give them some some

1174
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 11: sort of like comfort or something, because man, the hardest

1175
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 11: thing to do is to swallow all your emotions and

1176
00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 11: then go in there and address your team. So that's

1177
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:33,240
Speaker 11: really what I'm doing. Whenever, whenever they're they're saying something

1178
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 11: to me after they're whipping my butt, it's usually as

1179
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 11: quick as I can just shake their hand and try

1180
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,120
Speaker 11: to gather my thoughts and emotions before I address the team.

1181
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,520
Speaker 11: But you know, I have such a tremendous amount of

1182
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,880
Speaker 11: respect for the head coaches in this league. You know,

1183
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 11: it's a it's a fraternity of really good men, and

1184
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 11: you know, we don't always get along, we don't always

1185
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 11: agree with each other, but there is a level of

1186
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,279
Speaker 11: respect there. And so you know, when you get a

1187
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,800
Speaker 11: chance to visit with another SEC head coach, you always

1188
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,320
Speaker 11: treat it with a little bit of respect.

1189
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:06,640
Speaker 1: I think a bit the pre game would be awkward

1190
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 1: if you're expected to talk and you don't really like

1191
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,080
Speaker 1: them or know them. Like we have guests in studio

1192
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,960
Speaker 1: and there there are you know, celebrities that either I

1193
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:14,239
Speaker 1: don't like or I don't know them. We have to

1194
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,920
Speaker 1: like do small talk for like six minutes before this,

1195
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:21,040
Speaker 1: and that's torture for me, and I got to imagine

1196
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,560
Speaker 1: just the human nature of it there. That's probably the

1197
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:25,799
Speaker 1: same situation. So the pre more than the post. The

1198
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 1: post you can get out over. But the do you

1199
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 1: have to go talk to the other head coach before

1200
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 1: the game?

1201
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 14: Well apparently you don't have to.

1202
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:33,719
Speaker 11: Ed Or Doron didn't come shake my hand before the

1203
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 11: first time we played them, and that was really the first.

1204
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,359
Speaker 17: Time and only time I've ever had that happen, So.

1205
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:39,239
Speaker 14: I guess you don't have to.

1206
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,359
Speaker 1: Are you're supposed like that's the thing you're supposed to like.

1207
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,239
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean it's kind of a you know, it's

1208
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,520
Speaker 11: kind of a sportsmanship deal. I tell you when I

1209
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 11: come into that the most is when you have to

1210
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,759
Speaker 11: do the Friday pre game media because there are some

1211
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,319
Speaker 11: media that you know, have been taking shots at you

1212
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 11: or you know, shots at your team, and then you

1213
00:50:57,600 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 11: got to go sit there and act like you're going

1214
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:01,799
Speaker 11: to be anybody and give them all the information that

1215
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 11: they want to ask. So that one's always the one

1216
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 11: that you're like.

1217
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:12,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, final question, coach, if you're struggling emotionally mentally,

1218
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 1: who professionally can you call who's your mentor.

1219
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 11: Well, you know, there's a couple of different people that

1220
00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 11: I can reach out to.

1221
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:23,320
Speaker 17: From a spiritual standpoint, there's.

1222
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:26,200
Speaker 11: A guy in Boone, North Carolina named doctor Dick Furman

1223
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 11: who's been a really a person of great character and

1224
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 11: integrity for me for the last six years, and.

1225
00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:36,880
Speaker 17: The highest of highs I can expect to get a

1226
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 17: text from him that says.

1227
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,360
Speaker 11: T y L which stands for thank you Lord, or

1228
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,360
Speaker 11: the lowest the lows I can get a text from that.

1229
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 11: It's going to say thank you Lord, because you just

1230
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,600
Speaker 11: realize that you're blessed to get the opportunity to do this,

1231
00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:49,320
Speaker 11: and you realize that your future is in his hands

1232
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:52,279
Speaker 11: and not to get caught up in the anxiety of it.

1233
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:56,080
Speaker 11: From a coaching standpoint, you know, coach Malson's obviously a

1234
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 11: guy that I can reach out to that we exchange

1235
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:01,719
Speaker 11: ideas back and forth from.

1236
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:03,759
Speaker 14: So there's just different people like that.

1237
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,399
Speaker 11: But in the but in those two situations, those would

1238
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 11: probably be the first two phone calls. You know, sometimes

1239
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:13,560
Speaker 11: I'm not quite as quick to call Gus because you know,

1240
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,359
Speaker 11: he's still the guy that I ga Ford, So he'll

1241
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 11: tell me that that's pretty dumb.

1242
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 14: What is your problem here?

1243
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:20,759
Speaker 7: Man?

1244
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 14: But that's good to keep me humple.

1245
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 3: Coach, good to see you.

1246
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,080
Speaker 1: We talked about coach drink Fro Missouri being like hey,

1247
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:29,799
Speaker 1: and he's saying all this stuff and we edited him out.

1248
00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 1: Brett bielamaf Milanoy, who also is right on the verge

1249
00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:35,799
Speaker 1: of making college football playoff like he got in the

1250
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 1: mix with Lane Kiffin when Kiffin was like, we're nine

1251
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 1: and three, we should get in and Bilama wasn't serious

1252
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 1: about them deserving a shot in, but he's like, if

1253
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,440
Speaker 1: that's your logic, well here's ours, and it's better than yours.

1254
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 13: Love it.

1255
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 1: And so coach Beelam was awesome. I know coach Bilama

1256
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 1: a bet from when he was at Arkansas. Now, what

1257
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:53,839
Speaker 1: happened with this one was he did not know we

1258
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,200
Speaker 1: were recording. But because we don't have good radio voices,

1259
00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:58,920
Speaker 1: no one ever knows we're recording that. They were just

1260
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:00,840
Speaker 1: talking to them and he did I'd say some stuff

1261
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:03,560
Speaker 1: and they reached out and said, would you guys mind

1262
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:05,839
Speaker 1: removing that He didn't know you're recording, and we were

1263
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,560
Speaker 1: like one step ahead of you once they're already on it. Yes,

1264
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,719
Speaker 1: made his name at wisconstantly crushed, went to Arkansas, has

1265
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,879
Speaker 1: turned the Illinois program around, big contenders. Coach Bilima one

1266
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,920
Speaker 1: of the bigger personalities. Really great guy here he is

1267
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,120
Speaker 1: from University Villinois. Coach Brett B.

1268
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,799
Speaker 3: Lama, Hey, coach, how you doing, my friend, coach?

1269
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,000
Speaker 1: If you found it to be most effective to get

1270
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 1: your guys used to loud cheering or music, because you've

1271
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: done this a while, Like what's most effective in practice.

1272
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:33,600
Speaker 14: Still by far just the crowd noise in the stadium,

1273
00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,799
Speaker 14: you know, just just putting it out there. I mean today, now,

1274
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:41,160
Speaker 14: what we do do here is I removed my defensive

1275
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 14: coaches and players because I want it to be so

1276
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,879
Speaker 14: loud you can't really conduct the practice for the other

1277
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:48,640
Speaker 14: side of the ball because on offense, when we run

1278
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 14: to play, we crank it and then we'll turn it down,

1279
00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 14: you know, in between while we want to correct it

1280
00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:54,920
Speaker 14: and then they'll crank it way back up.

1281
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: So is it ever so loud you cannot hear in

1282
00:53:57,719 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 1: the in helmet communication?

1283
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 14: Does you know? It does get loud?

1284
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:02,160
Speaker 7: Now?

1285
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 14: We actually not a lot of teams are using them,

1286
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,239
Speaker 14: but there's actually muffs that you can put on your

1287
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 14: helmet that our quarterback. You'll see our quarterback doesn't have

1288
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 14: ear holes because we put a canceling device over his

1289
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,040
Speaker 14: ear hole. You'll see a lot of quarterbacks going like this,

1290
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 14: that's because they don't have that device. But it really

1291
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:22,839
Speaker 14: for me, I've always wore double ear muffs. It's kind

1292
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:28,279
Speaker 14: of kind of like the movie Old School, Old Cool

1293
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:32,160
Speaker 14: ear muffs, earmuff Like, I always wear double ear muffs

1294
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 14: because I just want to hear the voices that I

1295
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 14: need to hear. But yeah, for a quarterback, it definitely

1296
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:37,200
Speaker 14: can be that way.

1297
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 3: Coach, what's all my like in the locker room? What

1298
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 3: kind of leaders?

1299
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 13: You know?

1300
00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:41,399
Speaker 14: What?

1301
00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:42,240
Speaker 13: Bobby?

1302
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:44,839
Speaker 14: First off, you know, his dad was a team doctor

1303
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:48,440
Speaker 14: a Mississippi State, so he's been around college football his

1304
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:52,640
Speaker 14: whole life growing up, been around it, seeing it, lived it.

1305
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:55,800
Speaker 14: So his awareness to the to the world and college

1306
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:59,760
Speaker 14: football is really really high. His football IQ extremely gifted

1307
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,279
Speaker 14: ball awareness. He's also a tremendous kid of faith, so

1308
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 14: like he's very fade driven. But it's not like these

1309
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 14: guys that you know, come across preaching and teaching everything.

1310
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 14: Like he's just a normal guy. He's very empowering, but

1311
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,799
Speaker 14: a and He's very deliberate in his relationships. He it's

1312
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 14: not a guy that he's out in front screaming and

1313
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:18,759
Speaker 14: you own, like some quarterbacks.

1314
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:18,880
Speaker 7: Like.

1315
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:23,320
Speaker 14: He's a very relationship driven guy and just really exudes

1316
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:25,600
Speaker 14: confidence that carries over to every position.

1317
00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:27,719
Speaker 1: I'm want to ask a really dumb question because I

1318
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:30,120
Speaker 1: just don't know the answer. Is there food at halftime

1319
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:30,719
Speaker 1: in the locker room?

1320
00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:31,440
Speaker 9: A good question?

1321
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:32,799
Speaker 14: Oh yeah, yeah?

1322
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:34,759
Speaker 3: Like and how much did someone eat?

1323
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 14: Well? Even even going back to my time at Arkansas.

1324
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 14: You know, so Ben Herbert, who was my strength coach there,

1325
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 14: we kind of developed it when I was at Wisconsin.

1326
00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:45,120
Speaker 14: He's done with the Chargers out there with hardball, but

1327
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,200
Speaker 14: we do a lot of PB and j's to do

1328
00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:50,160
Speaker 14: anything that has a high nutritional value to give energy.

1329
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 14: You know, some kids just really don't want to eat

1330
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,759
Speaker 14: on game day. So what we try to do is

1331
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:59,240
Speaker 14: override any issues we might have with high energy protein

1332
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,040
Speaker 14: content in shakes and snacks.

1333
00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:03,279
Speaker 13: Right.

1334
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:07,000
Speaker 14: So there's there's also a lot of gummies like good gummies, right,

1335
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 14: gummies that are for the purpose of nutrition and anything

1336
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 14: that can peak their performance. We actually have a nutritional

1337
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:20,640
Speaker 14: crew that will pre make and set up maybe probably

1338
00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 14: about half our roster at halftime where they'll slam a

1339
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 14: shake that they pre ordered, they love, and we just

1340
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 14: want to get calories in them. So it's a it's

1341
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 14: a very specific thing. Yeah, it's a lot different. Back

1342
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:32,680
Speaker 14: when I was in school, we had chicken broth that

1343
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,800
Speaker 14: was our high heightened during the cold games once in

1344
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:40,719
Speaker 14: a while. But yeah, the nutrition factor into performance is

1345
00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 14: at a it's and I'm sure it's soon. It's going

1346
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 14: to continue to get better, but it's at a high

1347
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,680
Speaker 14: level now that that's the way. I'm not exactly a

1348
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:49,920
Speaker 14: walking dictionary of nutrition. So like that that's in their world.

1349
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,680
Speaker 5: Coach, you fly off for your job, What kind of

1350
00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 5: flyer are you? You put headphones on, you listen to music,

1351
00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:57,360
Speaker 5: you do work, you read, Like, what do you do

1352
00:56:57,400 --> 00:56:57,839
Speaker 5: on a flight?

1353
00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:00,480
Speaker 14: Yeah, you know, we got a pretty long flight going

1354
00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:03,759
Speaker 14: out here to Oregon. So we'll actually practice Thursday morning

1355
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 14: and leave Thursday afternoon, so I'll watch Thursday's practice. I

1356
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 14: actually got it one of if you've seen them, but

1357
00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:11,120
Speaker 14: it's the there are glasses that you plug into your

1358
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:13,919
Speaker 14: computer and then they I don't have to be looking down.

1359
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:17,080
Speaker 14: I can lay back and I've had the video and

1360
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 14: it's I got to remote in my hand, I can

1361
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:21,200
Speaker 14: watch that. It's just like I'm in front of a

1362
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,760
Speaker 14: big screen. It's it's I can read emails that way,

1363
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 14: I can read articles, I can watch film. It's it's

1364
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 14: and now I usually got a pair of headphones on,

1365
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,600
Speaker 14: listen to a little little country, little little R and B,

1366
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:33,800
Speaker 14: little little reggae. Kind of depends on.

1367
00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 3: The mood before a big game or any game.

1368
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 1: Do you like your guys to be like right on

1369
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:40,840
Speaker 1: the edge, fired up or And we've had fighters that

1370
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 1: we've talked to who will tell us they do not

1371
00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:44,960
Speaker 1: like to be fired up because they're not thinking as

1372
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:48,400
Speaker 1: clearly that if they're calm, they're actually able to take

1373
00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:50,919
Speaker 1: and navigate through their thoughts. Right, And there's a fine

1374
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:53,520
Speaker 1: line somewhere that's correct. Where do you stand on the

1375
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:55,800
Speaker 1: psychology of that going into a game or going into

1376
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:56,360
Speaker 1: a big game?

1377
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,360
Speaker 14: Well, I think first it's culturally based by what you

1378
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 14: do kind of throughout the year, right, Like if you

1379
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:04,160
Speaker 14: try to go to uh, you know, the gate the

1380
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 14: day of the game and try to figure your crew out,

1381
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:08,360
Speaker 14: you're going to have a long time coming, right. So

1382
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 14: we try to get a pulse on this we build it.

1383
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,000
Speaker 14: I really call it that flip flop Friday. I kind

1384
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 14: of relax on Fridays because I want to put our

1385
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:18,840
Speaker 14: guys at ease. I'm more comfortable, they're more comfortable, you know.

1386
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:21,200
Speaker 14: We do little things like we call we'll have a

1387
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:24,280
Speaker 14: lot of mandatory dinners, but we'll call it. We'll call

1388
00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,440
Speaker 14: it mandatory flow, which means just kind of come and

1389
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 14: go as you want. But then the last meal, we

1390
00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 14: have our last pregame meal, which is always fours out

1391
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:34,080
Speaker 14: four hours out before pre before the game. So if

1392
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,560
Speaker 14: we're playing at two o'clock, the meal is at ten o'clock,

1393
00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:38,840
Speaker 14: we're at six o'clock, it's at two o'clock, and that

1394
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 14: is everybody comes in mandatory seeded. We'll start off with

1395
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:45,080
Speaker 14: the prayer, you know, we have it regimented away. We

1396
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 14: eat just to kind of begin to lock them in,

1397
00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:50,160
Speaker 14: you know now. But then they'll go to their rooms

1398
00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,000
Speaker 14: and I'll say, hey, go call text, FaceTime, whoever you

1399
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:54,520
Speaker 14: got to do. Let's get it out of the way.

1400
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:56,400
Speaker 14: So when you come down here two and a half

1401
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,000
Speaker 14: hours before kickoff, we know what we're doing, right, and

1402
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:02,480
Speaker 14: then we kind of a gras transition to being ready

1403
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:05,320
Speaker 14: to go. I think game day is totally different, Bobby

1404
00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:08,920
Speaker 14: than practice. You know, in those moments, it's about it's

1405
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:11,040
Speaker 14: not what happens, it's how you react to what happens.

1406
00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 14: So if you have kids that are on edge because

1407
00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:16,000
Speaker 14: they think they're going to be, you know, handled in

1408
00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 14: a way that's combative on game day, you're going to

1409
00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:20,600
Speaker 14: have usually a bad result. So we're kind of a

1410
00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:23,440
Speaker 14: kind of a in the moment, let's let's learn from

1411
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:24,280
Speaker 14: the moment, but move on.

1412
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 1: Are you ever internally so emotional? But you're able to

1413
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:31,960
Speaker 1: have the thought I should not be outwardly emotional because

1414
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:34,720
Speaker 1: of how we'll make others feel A react like a kicker,

1415
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,560
Speaker 1: miss the kicker you like mother, But you've got.

1416
00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:39,160
Speaker 3: To really dial it in and keep it in.

1417
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 14: So true story. I think you evolve in time as

1418
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 14: you get older, right, you learn more from your failures

1419
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 14: than your successes. But I've always been a guy that

1420
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 14: really just believes the teaching moments are all around us.

1421
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:53,120
Speaker 14: It's just a matter of what you want to teach, right,

1422
00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:56,440
Speaker 14: And I came full circle. I was a young coach.

1423
00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,880
Speaker 14: I'm probably in my second or third year. I've recruited

1424
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 14: a kid by the name of James I, who was

1425
01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 14: a running back out of Saint Thomas Aquanas in Fort Lauerdale, Florida.

1426
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:05,440
Speaker 14: He went on to play for the Patriots for about

1427
01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 14: ten years, won several Super Bowls. He was a true freshman,

1428
01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:12,000
Speaker 14: really good player for US. And he was making a

1429
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:14,439
Speaker 14: run and he reached the ball across the end zone

1430
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,440
Speaker 14: and I got punched out and created a touchback scenario.

1431
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:21,560
Speaker 14: And I literally was on the headset and everybody was like,

1432
01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:23,160
Speaker 14: you can't do that, and I heard it. I said,

1433
01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:26,600
Speaker 14: I told everybody, hey, shut up, I'll handle this moment right.

1434
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,479
Speaker 14: And I went over and he was on the bench

1435
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:31,320
Speaker 14: and I just put my hand on his head and

1436
01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:33,000
Speaker 14: I leaned down by his knee and I said, hey,

1437
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:36,360
Speaker 14: my friend, you are such a great player. You are

1438
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 14: going to score so many touchdowns in this stadium and

1439
01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:43,120
Speaker 14: in your career, and you'll play beyond here. But just

1440
01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 14: know we're brought you here to run the ball, not

1441
01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:48,000
Speaker 14: reach the ball. Right, There's three occasions that you can

1442
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,000
Speaker 14: reach the ball. Fourth down, two point plays in the

1443
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:53,120
Speaker 14: end of game. Right, Otherwise they're always staying and we'll

1444
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:58,520
Speaker 14: play the next down. And it came full circle. His dad,

1445
01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 14: I went on to the coach of the Patriots, and

1446
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:05,560
Speaker 14: his dad told me he watched it on TV. Right,

1447
01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:09,280
Speaker 14: And then lo and behold his dad was killed in

1448
01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 14: a car accident, like a number of two years later, right.

1449
01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:17,600
Speaker 14: And I think about the profound effect of that moment,

1450
01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:21,479
Speaker 14: that teaching moment with that kid, to have a dad

1451
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,600
Speaker 14: witness it on TV and the life lesson that was

1452
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:27,520
Speaker 14: taught is truly why you do this job.

1453
01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:30,360
Speaker 1: At what point in your career, coach, did you realize

1454
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:32,320
Speaker 1: And I say this as someone who my high school

1455
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:34,200
Speaker 1: football coach, I didn't have a dad, was a big

1456
01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 1: part of my understanding of discipline, right, Like, because I

1457
01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:40,640
Speaker 1: had no mal influence, I had no one.

1458
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 3: At what point in your career did you realize that

1459
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 3: you were going to be that?

1460
01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 1: And that was a real responsibility for a lot of

1461
01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 1: these kids.

1462
01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:48,560
Speaker 14: It's a great point. I say it all the time.

1463
01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 14: We do a little presentation when I have a kid

1464
01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:52,440
Speaker 14: come in my office that we've offered a scholarship to

1465
01:01:52,560 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 14: or a visit. We talk about a timeline on this earth. Right,

1466
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,120
Speaker 14: we all start at zero and average age goes to

1467
01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 14: seventy two. Hopefully we all go beyond that. But we

1468
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 14: talk about during that window. You know, I usually get

1469
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,680
Speaker 14: a kid when he's eighteen years old, right, And if

1470
01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:09,880
Speaker 14: you just do the math, that's a twenty You know,

1471
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,880
Speaker 14: twenty five percent of your seventy two year lifeline is

1472
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 14: already done before I got you. Right, So I'm going

1473
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:18,720
Speaker 14: to get you from eighteen twenty one twenty two, And

1474
01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:21,640
Speaker 14: during that four year window, it's the first time you're

1475
01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:24,880
Speaker 14: out of your environment that you've known your whole life. Right, Like,

1476
01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:27,520
Speaker 14: whether it's a parent, an uncle, a coach, a grandpa,

1477
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:30,480
Speaker 14: I get everything right, like I have step parents, whatever

1478
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 14: it is. And I always tell our kids, like, listen,

1479
01:02:34,400 --> 01:02:36,040
Speaker 14: I don't want to be your dad, you already got one.

1480
01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:37,560
Speaker 14: I don't want to be your uncle or your brother,

1481
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 14: your cousin, your friend, or your high school coach. I

1482
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,080
Speaker 14: want to be the best college coach you could ever have.

1483
01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 13: Right.

1484
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:45,720
Speaker 14: And because of that, I'm going to at times sound

1485
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 14: like a parent. I'm going to at times tell you

1486
01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:50,600
Speaker 14: things you don't want to hear, right, And I would

1487
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:53,280
Speaker 14: tell you the more I tell you things, especially if

1488
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:55,040
Speaker 14: you don't agree with them, it's because I love you,

1489
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:58,040
Speaker 14: not because I hate you. Too many people in this world,

1490
01:02:58,120 --> 01:02:59,440
Speaker 14: like try to tell them the things they want to

1491
01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:01,680
Speaker 14: hear and avoid to the things they need to hear.

1492
01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:04,760
Speaker 14: So I think that's a really big part of coaching

1493
01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:06,480
Speaker 14: is you're going to sound like a parent a lot.

1494
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:10,040
Speaker 14: The good news is they're not right. But the part

1495
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 14: that is real is that you can affect their life

1496
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:14,240
Speaker 14: for a long time and probably in a time in

1497
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:15,640
Speaker 14: their life where they need it more than ever.

1498
01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:17,360
Speaker 3: All right, coach, good luck, We love you, buddy, take care.

1499
01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,320

Speaker 1: knew he he probably knew we wouldn't hurt Cooper BB. Yeah,

1533
01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:45,800
Speaker 1: of course, like these idiots, but yeah, I know Kansas

1534
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:49,800
Speaker 1: State like Perennial in the mix. Now, we love Coach Climbing.

1535
01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:52,480
Speaker 1: And here's our talk with him. His dad was a coach.

1536
01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 1: We talked about that a bunch two with him in

1537
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:55,880
Speaker 1: the full interview. So here he is from Kansas State.

1538
01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 1: Here is coach Chris Climbing. Hey, coach, good to see you.

1539
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:02,720
Speaker 1: Thank you for the time. How you doing, Hey, pretty good.

1540
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:05,720
Speaker 1: I do want to go back a year or so

1541
01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:07,400
Speaker 1: we were working out with Cooper BB when we were up

1542
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:08,040
Speaker 1: there with you guys.

1543
01:05:08,280 --> 01:05:10,080
Speaker 3: You keep up with Cooper at all with Cowboys.

1544
01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:16,000
Speaker 18: Absolutely, he's come back for at least two games, but no,

1545
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:19,439
Speaker 18: probably weekly. We send a text back and forth. Super

1546
01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:21,840
Speaker 18: proud of him being the starting center in the NFL.

1547
01:05:22,080 --> 01:05:24,360
Speaker 1: Man crazy too because and Cooper and I follow each

1548
01:05:24,360 --> 01:05:27,720
Speaker 1: other on Instagram since then, and when he was drafted, obviously,

1549
01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,920
Speaker 1: super pumped for him. But the transition, and maybe you

1550
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:32,880
Speaker 1: could add a little of this, the transition because he

1551
01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:35,000
Speaker 1: did not play center for you, but now he's playing

1552
01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:38,120
Speaker 1: center with the Cowboys. How hard is that to do

1553
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:39,200
Speaker 1: on the offensive line?

1554
01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:43,959
Speaker 18: It's really hard. But the fact that he played all

1555
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:49,920
Speaker 18: four positions, but that I think lent himself to understanding

1556
01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:53,320
Speaker 18: all the positions and knew that he could because he

1557
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:56,960
Speaker 18: was the guy that communicated all of our checks and

1558
01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:02,480
Speaker 18: adjustments and IDs and stuff. Anyway, and all along when

1559
01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:04,800
Speaker 18: he was here and continue to get better and better,

1560
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:06,920
Speaker 18: people kept asking us, do you think he can be

1561
01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 18: a center? Do you think he can be a center? Well, yeah,

1562
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:11,320
Speaker 18: we did from a mental side of things. Now from

1563
01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:13,600
Speaker 18: a physical side of things. He just had to put

1564
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:17,000
Speaker 18: the time into it. And obviously he did that because

1565
01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:19,400
Speaker 18: to make that transition and be the start, be named

1566
01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:22,640
Speaker 18: the starter by week one was pretty remarkable.

1567
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:25,520
Speaker 1: So teams were reaching out to you to ask if

1568
01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:28,520
Speaker 1: they if you thought, like his mental capacity was that

1569
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:31,480
Speaker 1: of a center. Some more so, was it his size?

1570
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:34,320
Speaker 1: Like why were teams looking at him as a center.

1571
01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:37,360
Speaker 18: All the fact that he's not six foot six and

1572
01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:39,520
Speaker 18: six ' five and stuff. He's a you know, I

1573
01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:40,919
Speaker 18: don't know what is he six three and a half

1574
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:45,120
Speaker 18: six ' four. And they knew he would be an

1575
01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:49,280
Speaker 18: interior guy somewhere. And the center position is so valuable,

1576
01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:52,800
Speaker 18: so hard to find that when you have somebody with

1577
01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:55,680
Speaker 18: the acumen that he has of understanding the game and

1578
01:06:55,840 --> 01:07:00,439
Speaker 18: understanding defensive fronts and being able to communicate. I thought

1579
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:02,200
Speaker 18: it was going to be a natural for him to

1580
01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:04,280
Speaker 18: be able to move inside there. Then he just had

1581
01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:07,520
Speaker 18: to work on the physical side of getting the snaps

1582
01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:10,880
Speaker 18: and movement, and I knew he could do it because

1583
01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 18: he's such a great athlete too.

1584
01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:16,480
Speaker 1: Is there ever a time with a player when you

1585
01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:19,000
Speaker 1: will modify a bit of how they play or what

1586
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:21,400
Speaker 1: they do for the next level, even though it may

1587
01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:25,080
Speaker 1: not be completely advantageous to what you're doing right then.

1588
01:07:25,480 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 18: Not completely, But I also have a responsibility to give

1589
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:34,480
Speaker 18: these guys the best opportunity to have success at that

1590
01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:37,000
Speaker 18: next level and if it can fit with what we're

1591
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:37,920
Speaker 18: doing as a team.

1592
01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:39,120
Speaker 7: Yes.

1593
01:07:39,240 --> 01:07:44,360
Speaker 18: Absolutely. We had a guy that actually started for the

1594
01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:47,960
Speaker 18: Bucks the other night named Josh Hays. He's a safety

1595
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:51,680
Speaker 18: slash corner and I had him at North Zakota State

1596
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:54,600
Speaker 18: and he was a corner and then we got him

1597
01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:57,440
Speaker 18: out of the transfer portal to come here and he

1598
01:07:57,480 --> 01:07:59,320
Speaker 18: assumed he was going to play corner and I said, Josh,

1599
01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:02,360
Speaker 18: we're going to play you safety here. A. It's going

1600
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:04,840
Speaker 18: to help us be a better team, but B, I

1601
01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:07,240
Speaker 18: think it's going to market you better in the NFL

1602
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:10,560
Speaker 18: because you're not a six foot three guy that's two

1603
01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:12,760
Speaker 18: hundred and fifteen pounds. That's a corner that a lot

1604
01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:15,919
Speaker 18: of the teams are looking for. Josh is a six foot,

1605
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,320
Speaker 18: one hundred and ninety five pound kid. And I said,

1606
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:20,559
Speaker 18: if you can cover slot guys, you're going to have

1607
01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:22,880
Speaker 18: a place in the NFL. So it's not only going

1608
01:08:22,880 --> 01:08:25,040
Speaker 18: to help our team, but it's going to help your

1609
01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:26,040
Speaker 18: draft status.

1610
01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 14: And they up getting.

1611
01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:29,200
Speaker 18: Drafted maybe in the fourth or fifth round by the Bucks.

1612
01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:32,080
Speaker 18: And I think he's in his third year now and

1613
01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:36,000
Speaker 18: now he's a starter for him. But his ability to

1614
01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:39,280
Speaker 18: move and showcase what he could do as a safety

1615
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:42,040
Speaker 18: rather than a corner helped us as a team and.

1616
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 13: Helped him in the draft.

1617
01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:45,920
Speaker 1: What's Avery Johnson like as a dude?

1618
01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:50,919
Speaker 18: Gosh, A, he's awesome. He's so much fun to be around.

1619
01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:57,360
Speaker 18: He's the unquestioned leader on the offense, but he's very confident,

1620
01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:01,599
Speaker 18: has some swagger, but he's not a cocky kid. He's

1621
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,880
Speaker 18: a guy that you know the room lights up when

1622
01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:10,160
Speaker 18: he comes in, but he doesn't want that, if that

1623
01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:12,960
Speaker 18: makes sense. He doesn't want to be the center of attention.

1624
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:14,720
Speaker 18: He's just always going to be Some of it is

1625
01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:16,240
Speaker 18: his hair, right, He's going to be the center of

1626
01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:22,000
Speaker 18: attention because of his hair. But he's a very humble,

1627
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 18: driven kid that what people don't see about Avery is

1628
01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:30,280
Speaker 18: all the things that he does in our community for youth,

1629
01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:37,360
Speaker 18: for disability, children, for people in need. I know he's

1630
01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:40,839
Speaker 18: helping a principle back home that was diagnosed with cancer,

1631
01:09:40,840 --> 01:09:43,680
Speaker 18: of raising money. Those are the things that he's not

1632
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 18: putting out on social media, but maybe should be emphasized

1633
01:09:47,400 --> 01:09:48,759
Speaker 18: a little bit more because it's.

1634
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:49,799
Speaker 14: Not just about the football.

1635
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:52,920
Speaker 13: The football is just a very small part of his life.

1636
01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:57,640
Speaker 1: When you look for a leader, like what are those qualities?

1637
01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:01,680
Speaker 1: And the leadership qualities can be very different. I mean

1638
01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:04,200
Speaker 1: we have them even here amongst this organization. Like what

1639
01:10:04,240 --> 01:10:07,479
Speaker 1: are the qualities that you see in leaders that you

1640
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:10,240
Speaker 1: feel like go best with your program?

1641
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:13,920
Speaker 18: For starters that have to be able to hold themselves accountable,

1642
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,160
Speaker 18: it's always easy to say the best player and the

1643
01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:20,840
Speaker 18: work ethic and his last one off the field and

1644
01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:22,840
Speaker 18: the first one on the field. You know, those are

1645
01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:25,960
Speaker 18: the things that people I think think about, but I

1646
01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:28,919
Speaker 18: think of it as one he's one that holds himself

1647
01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:34,040
Speaker 18: accountable and he's not going to talk to talk unless

1648
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:37,320
Speaker 18: he can walk the walk. And we have a kid

1649
01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:41,360
Speaker 18: named Austin Moore that's one of our captains that epitomizes

1650
01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:43,960
Speaker 18: what a what a leader is and what I call

1651
01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:46,719
Speaker 18: when I say a leader, he's a servant leader. In effect,

1652
01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 18: he makes everybody around him better because of his presence.

1653
01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:58,479
Speaker 18: And the best leaders are ones that really don't care

1654
01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:00,880
Speaker 18: if at the end of day, we're going to be

1655
01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:03,720
Speaker 18: best friends for the next forty years, you're going to

1656
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:07,040
Speaker 18: respect me because I'm going to hold myself accountable, but

1657
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,320
Speaker 18: I'm not going to be afraid to hold you accountable.

1658
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:14,160
Speaker 18: And you know, in our sport, in college, kids have three,

1659
01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:18,040
Speaker 18: four or five years to make a legacy, and you

1660
01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:20,120
Speaker 18: can make a ton of friends, and you're already going

1661
01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:21,920
Speaker 18: to make a ton of friends. But the only way

1662
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:24,640
Speaker 18: you're going to make a legacy is if you have success.

1663
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:27,200
Speaker 18: And the only way you're going to have success is

1664
01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:32,679
Speaker 18: by holding your peers accountable. And that's what I find

1665
01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:35,760
Speaker 18: in the best leaders is they can hold themselves accountable.

1666
01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:38,759
Speaker 18: They can walk the walk, but they are not afraid

1667
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:41,320
Speaker 18: to call out their best friend, not afraid to call

1668
01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:45,760
Speaker 18: out a teammate that is maybe equally as talented. It's

1669
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:47,680
Speaker 18: easy to call out the guys that maybe aren't as

1670
01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:48,920
Speaker 18: good or don't do things.

1671
01:11:48,800 --> 01:11:49,360
Speaker 13: The right way.

1672
01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:52,240
Speaker 18: But when you can call out the other best players

1673
01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:54,320
Speaker 18: and they respect you for it, that's the best sign

1674
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:54,879
Speaker 18: of leadership.

1675
01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:56,680
Speaker 1: I'm going to get in the weeds a little here

1676
01:11:56,720 --> 01:12:00,200
Speaker 1: because I respect your entire career as a coach, what

1677
01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:02,320
Speaker 1: you've built at every level. But I want to talk

1678
01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:06,760
Speaker 1: about practice tape. So you're a practice, You're doing what

1679
01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:09,639
Speaker 1: you do, you're ceoing, you're making sure that the macro

1680
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:11,880
Speaker 1: things are done right. Do you ever get on and

1681
01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:14,519
Speaker 1: watch some tape and see somebody that maybe you did

1682
01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:18,519
Speaker 1: not know was competing at a higher level than maybe

1683
01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:20,639
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have caught if you didn't see it on tape.

1684
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:25,920
Speaker 18: One hundred percent. I do it every day, And not

1685
01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:28,720
Speaker 18: only do you do, you have to do it, but

1686
01:12:28,800 --> 01:12:34,519
Speaker 18: you have to recognize that individual or those individuals for

1687
01:12:34,560 --> 01:12:38,360
Speaker 18: their efforts. And a simple thing would be we have

1688
01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:41,200
Speaker 18: our Scout team Players of the Week every week, the

1689
01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:44,400
Speaker 18: guys that aren't playing but gave us a chance to

1690
01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:47,880
Speaker 18: be successful by the look that they gave us each

1691
01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 18: day that week that maybe we're down a defensive tackle

1692
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:54,439
Speaker 18: and he had to take every rep in practice for

1693
01:12:54,520 --> 01:12:57,880
Speaker 18: the scout team or a linebacker whatever, maybe as well

1694
01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:01,400
Speaker 18: as special teams. And I think it's important that not

1695
01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:07,160
Speaker 18: only myself, but some of our best players thank those

1696
01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 18: guys and recognize those guys.

1697
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,559
Speaker 13: We have a neat deal that we do after wins in.

1698
01:13:11,520 --> 01:13:15,800
Speaker 18: The locker room where we hand out a hammer because

1699
01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:17,439
Speaker 18: we talked about pounding the stone all the time. We

1700
01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 18: hand out a hammer to somebody and then they get

1701
01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:24,479
Speaker 18: to recognize somebody, and oftentimes it's a defensive lineman that

1702
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:27,720
Speaker 18: is recognizing Hey, Scout team offensive lineman so and so,

1703
01:13:27,960 --> 01:13:31,439
Speaker 18: or Scout team wide receiver as a defensive back. Thank

1704
01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:33,759
Speaker 18: you for pushing me this week, man, you made me better.

1705
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:36,800
Speaker 18: But I think you have to recognize those guys and

1706
01:13:37,160 --> 01:13:40,160
Speaker 18: they have to know that they're a valued part of

1707
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:41,639
Speaker 18: your organization and program.

1708
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:43,400
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about your dad for a second.

1709
01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:45,559
Speaker 1: What do you think you've taken from him, even if

1710
01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:47,760
Speaker 1: you don't realize until you got older, that you had,

1711
01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:49,040
Speaker 1: like as a.

1712
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:53,599
Speaker 18: Coach, competitiveness and toughness not even in question. My dad's

1713
01:13:53,640 --> 01:13:59,320
Speaker 18: the toughest man I know. He's still at five years old.

1714
01:14:00,280 --> 01:14:01,320
Speaker 18: Armchair quarterback I have.

1715
01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:03,960
Speaker 3: Does he text you at all? And does he use emojis?

1716
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:07,880
Speaker 7: No? No, my dad wouldn't use an emoji.

1717
01:14:09,360 --> 01:14:12,080
Speaker 1: All right, Coach Sea, thank you, hey, thanks for listening.

1718
01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:13,880
Speaker 1: One of the really cool things about the show is

1719
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:16,800
Speaker 1: we can't believe people will agree to talk to us

1720
01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:19,439
Speaker 1: that are like head coaches and major programs.

1721
01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:21,760
Speaker 9: It's pretty amazing, pretty amazing. I know, do you think

1722
01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:24,120
Speaker 9: we had anything to do with getting some of those

1723
01:14:24,160 --> 01:14:24,800
Speaker 9: teams in there?

1724
01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:27,960
Speaker 1: I really think we had maybe things to do with

1725
01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:30,479
Speaker 1: some of the teams not getting in there, like, if anything,

1726
01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:33,439
Speaker 1: we maybe hurricanes and stayed a little bit. Maybe let's

1727
01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:37,559
