Speaker 4: you know, and I appreciate the reach for our program

40
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,559
Speaker 4: and our university because it's it's a big time for us.

41
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 2: Well I tell us about the EKU season, how you

42
00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 2: guys have been doing so far.

43
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 5: We are we're doing okay. We we just won We're

44
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 5: two and oh at home.

45
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 4: So we beat Houston Christian who is used to be

46
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 4: Houston Baptist, famous for Bailey Zappey, and uh so we

47
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 4: played them, and then we beat Nicols State last week,

48
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 4: who is a team that has you know, done a

49
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 4: great job in the Southland Conference. And then we played

50
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,679
Speaker 4: Louisville obviously and didn't win that game. Lost A one

51
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 4: game that we lost that we are disappointed in is

52
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 4: against West Georgia, who's a ranked team in FCS and

53
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 4: in our conference. And so, uh we were playing well,

54
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 4: had a touchdown called back and kind of we're a

55
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 4: named young team right now growing up and we lost

56
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 4: twenty seven seniors, which is rare in the world. And so, uh,

57
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,119
Speaker 4: you know, we kind of grew up on the road

58
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 4: down in in Carrollton, in Carrollton, Georgia, and then we

59
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: played Marshall.

60
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 6: You open the year at Louisville, as you mentioned, what's

61
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 6: the importance of a game like that, kind of punching

62
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 6: up going to a power for school for a team

63
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 6: of your level. And have you ever had any success

64
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 6: in one of the those games over the years.

65
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 5: Well over the years.

66
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 4: Definitely as a player, I was at Austin p when

67
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 4: we beat Kansas State nineteen eighty seven. I don't know

68
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 4: who was worse than or us, but we won the game,

69
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 4: which was incredible. Then as a coach at Western Kentucky,

70
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 4: obviously we came in here I think that was twenty twelve,

71
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 4: Willie Taggers last year and upset Kentucky.

72
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, we don't talk about that.

73
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 4: And then you know, we actually at EKU beat bon

74
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 4: and Green State, and so it was a year that

75
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 4: I actually had my cardiac arrest.

76
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 5: It was my first game.

77
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 4: Gary mcpeete was the acting coach, but I was back

78
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 4: on the sidelines that game. So you know, we every

79
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 4: now and then you can sneak in and get one.

80
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,119
Speaker 4: But you know, it's obviously financially, it's big for our program,

81
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 4: and you know that goes to all athletics, not just football.

82
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 4: And then and then it gives our guys an opportunity

83
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 4: to step up and see where they're at, Guys that think,

84
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 4: you know, and then guys that are on the radars

85
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 4: of the NFL scouts. I mean, we'll have every NFL

86
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 4: team into our practices this year, just like in the

87
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 4: last that you know, they get a chance to watch

88
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 4: them against those type players and see how they fit.

89
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 4: You know, basically they know that those are one and

90
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 4: two game tests for them. You know, they're still gonna

91
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 4: watch every game, you know, at our level, but they

92
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 4: want to see how they play against you know, Isaac

93
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 4: Brown and all those dudes, and they get in the

94
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 4: hole with them one on one and can they make

95
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 4: the play and different things like that depending on who

96
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 4: they have. So, you know, two years ago, we came

97
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,359
Speaker 4: in here and played Kentucky and it was it was

98
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 4: a good game for a while, Yeah, I was.

99
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: It was a scary game for a while. You guys

100
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 2: came in here.

101
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 4: I remember that, and so it you know, it's our

102
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 4: guys get up for a big time.

103
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 5: Sure, they love it.

104
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 4: Our coaches love it because they want to prove who

105
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 4: they can, you know, coach against.

106
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 6: Sometimes you mentioned the NFL. I wasn't gonna go this direction,

107
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 6: but I'm a long suffering Titans fans. We've had some

108
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 6: Eastern Kentucky colonels recently. I believe they played for you.

109
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 6: I mean Tim Boyle is still on a roster out there.

110
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 6: I think he was before you were a coach. But

111
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 6: what's the sense of pride when you have a guy

112
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 6: go from Eastern and get to the league.

113
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 4: Well, I'm born and raised Nashville too, so I'm a

114
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 4: Titan fan. And so when we get through it. When

115
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 4: Matt and t K were down there, they both stayed

116
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,239
Speaker 4: for a year, year and a half or two years,

117
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 4: and uh, you know that's match from Nashville too, Matt

118
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 4: Jackson was so that was really prideful for me. And

119
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 4: you know, my best friends, one of the media guys

120
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 4: down in Nashville does radio show, does all this, and

121
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 4: so he would get them on and talk to him

122
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 4: and do everything.

123
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 5: So it's really prideful.

124
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 4: But you know, I hate to see I mean, I'm

125
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 4: a Steve McNair fan, have been for a long time.

126
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 4: I think he's one of the best quarterbacks to ever

127
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 4: played NFL. Of course everybody thinks I'm an idiot when

128
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,559
Speaker 4: I say that, but he was tough. He carried that town.

129
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 4: I it's kind of funny. Me and my brother, my

130
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 4: dad bought us PSLs. So when they brought the Titans,

131
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 4: and that means you had preferred sea license for two

132
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 4: seats in the end zone. And the year they came

133
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 4: is a year I got into college coaching, and so

134
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 4: my brother was a longtime high school coach down there,

135
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 4: so I never got to sales and uh, and so

136
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 4: I eventually I just said, hey man, you got him.

137
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 4: You you've been paying for him the whole time. You

138
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 4: take them and uh. He passed a couple of years ago,

139
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 4: but his family still has them, I think. And so

140
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 4: you know, we've been that long in Nashville and we

141
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 4: love it and I'm for him. They were just asking me,

142
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 4: these young guys with me. They were like, who'd you

143
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 4: grow up liking the Titans? I liked, well, no, because

144
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 4: Titans didn't come till I was in you know, probably

145
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 4: my thirties. You know, I said I was a Raiders

146
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 4: fan because the Raiders was my high school nickname.

147
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 5: So I want the Raiders.

148
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 2: So you mentioned that game you came into over here

149
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 2: to Kroger Field a couple of years ago, kind of

150
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 2: put a little scare in Kentucky a little bit. You

151
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 2: guys are on the schedule again on the next coming years,

152
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 2: aren't you.

153
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 5: I think it's twenty eight or twenty nine.

154
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 2: I saw I think they had the future schedules and

155
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: I saw uku on there. I mean, it's a big

156
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 2: deal for a program like you guys, and you get

157
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 2: to go into a big SEC program and play him.

158

00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 6: these connections.

00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 6: I'm like, I'm here to ask him about the Colonel's

348
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 6: but I did not expect so many Madisonville connections. During

349
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 6: the break, we talked all the way through it. We

350
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 6: were late getting back to join you.

351
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 2: Drew's path, Andy's chest. The Maroons six and.

352
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:25,800

353
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 4: Oh, I mean the Madisonville Maroons. I used to go

354
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 4: to the Pirates Cove.

355
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 6: Oh you know Pirates Cove. We could do a whole

356
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 6: show at the at the mall there.

357
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 4: We Oh yeah, they would. My parents would drive me up.

358
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 4: I would think it would be the worst week of

359
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 4: my life. I always thought that when I first started,

360
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 4: because I'm coming from Nashville. So I'm sitting here thinking,

361
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 4: all right, we got this, we got that, we got

362
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 4: Coppery Land, we got the Wlavepool, we've got the river

363
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 4: behind this. We can go fit. We can do all

364
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 4: this stuff. But we're going to Hanson. What the heck

365
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 4: am I gonna do? You know, Hanson's out of Walmart.

366
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 7: Now.

367
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 4: They hey, let's call them right there by the convey center,

368
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 4: which they called it a convenience center down there, and

369
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 4: I was like, what is a convenience center? And it's

370
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 4: basically where you take your trash and uh.

371
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 5: But it's a great town. I loved it. Every time.

372
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 4: Every week I'd go up there and spend with my

373
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 4: aunt and uncle and my.

374
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 5: Cousin that was my age.

375
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 7: You know.

376
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: We'd always end up at the Pirates Cove and I'd

377
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 4: have to take a you know, a wide full of

378
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 4: quarters and and go over there and we play games

379
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 4: and then we'd need it. I think there was a

380
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 4: pizza hut or something in there.

381
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 5: Godfather's Godfather. Yeah.

382
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 6: I got to pick my jaw off the floor with

383
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 6: him name dropping Pirates Cove.

384
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 2: I know that.

385
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 6: You know, everyone's not here to just hear our Madisonville references.

386
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 2: But what's the restaurant you say is the best restaurant

387
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 2: in town, the Mexican restaurant Oversero.

388
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 6: But we're going way back before all that. Pirate's Cove

389
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 6: is a deep cut for Madisonville.

390
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 4: I mean, Pirates Cove was That's where all every I

391
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 4: mean when you went back, when I went back, when

392
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 4: I was in high school, that's where you went. You

393
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 4: cruised them all there, and you stopped off into Pirates

394
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 4: Cove and played some games.

395
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 6: Guy knows Madisonville.

396
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 2: Now you know that, we've seen how the transfer portal

397
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 2: has affected, you know, the power for schools of Kentucky.

398
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 2: They plucked guys from like e K You. How do

399
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 2: you guys at EKU combat that?

400
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 4: Well, we just continue to rec I mean, the thing

401
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 4: about the transfer portal is that it makes Recruiting is

402
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 4: always twenty four to seven, three sixty five, always, but

403
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 4: now it's even more so because you have to be

404
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 4: critical in your decision making.

405
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 5: We lost.

406
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 4: We've got a line Our starting All Conference linebacker last

407
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 4: year is planning at Virginia right now. He starts on

408
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 4: special teams and he plays a lot at linebacker. Our

409
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 4: freshman All American offensive guard is it went to Purdue

410
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 4: and they plucked him out of here, you know, and

411
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 4: so you just got to I mean, it hurts you.

412
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 4: It hurts your depth, It hurts what you do because

413
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 4: you put the two years of development or what you're

414
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 4: development into them. But you can get mad about it,

415
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 4: or you can just I tell our coaches and this

416
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 4: is our philosophy right now it seems to be working decently.

417
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 4: Is like, hey man, you're the head coach of your position, okay,

418
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 4: and you have to understand that what we want and

419
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 4: the link, the size, all the different things that we want.

420
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 4: But you have to be ready to go. And we

421
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 4: can't replace a starting sophomore or starting junior or you know,

422
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 4: with a true freshman. You know, we're still going to

423
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,679
Speaker 4: recruit high schools. That's what we do. That's who we

424
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 4: think we can develop, and that's who's been our best players.

425
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 5: Uh, but we're gonna.

426
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 4: Have to go into portal and find guys that can

427
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 4: come in and help us win. Like our outside linebacker

428
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 4: is playing really good for us. Is a uh cam junior.

429
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 4: Cam originally signed and played for Cincinnati and then he

430
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 4: came down and he's had success with us. He got

431
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 4: a lot of scouts looking at him, Jahane Ward. I

432
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 4: recruited both his brothers. One of them was Jay Ward,

433
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 4: who was committing walking to to commit to Kentucky when

434
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 4: I was there. Uh, and Matt House was recruiting him

435
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 4: and somehow put a L s u hat on that

436
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 4: day and you know, between the parking lot and the table,

437
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 4: he put the lsu hat. I know what happened there,

438
00:17:55,320 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 4: but that was il exactly right. And then uh, and

439
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 4: and so Jaheim came from Austin p and came to

440
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 4: play for us when they had a coach and change.

441
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 4: And then uh, you know, we've got Veto Tisdell, who's

442
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 4: playing extremely high.

443
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 5: Level right now.

444
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 4: Every scout that comes in the first person they talk

445
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 4: about is is Vito Vido has got a pick six.

446
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 5: He's got three or four picks already. Uh.

447
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 4: He is really really matured and really really come around

448
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 4: and and he's been nothing but great for us. And uh,

449
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 4: and then we got Tommy Zezmer, you know who used

450
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 4: to play gear, who's starting noseguard for us and and

451
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 4: really making a name for himself. And so you know,

452
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 4: I there's a lot of Kentucky connections there, obviously because

453
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 4: of my relationships up here, and I can call and

454
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 4: check on people. But I know Veto since he was

455
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 4: a ninth grader. So when he was leaving, Uh, when

456
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 4: he left here, we tried to get him, but he

457
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 4: wanted to go to Colorado. And when he left Colorado,

458
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 4: I I had been the first one to offer him

459
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 4: when I was at Tennessee and anh grade. And then

460
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,679
Speaker 4: my chief of staff Jeff Griffith, who's a long time

461
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,560

Speaker 4: So Vito's dad called him and here we go, you know,

465
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,439
Speaker 4: and and UH, Veto didn't look anywhere else. And you know,

466
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 4: for all the things that have gone wrong for Veto,

467
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 4: he's been nothing but great for us ten years and

468
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 4: and uh and he's a high level player. And I

469
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 4: think he'll get I'll be shocked if he didn't finish

470
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,479
Speaker 4: the way he's playing right now that he won't get

471
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:36,959
Speaker 4: an opportunity to play in the NFL.

472
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 6: His pick six was against Louisville, right, yeah, one A

473
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 6: little extra to him on that one.

474
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 4: Right before halftime, and so uh he had two right

475
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 4: before had me back to back series. He had two picks.

476
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 4: He had, uh the one pick six and uh that scored.

477
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 4: And then Jaheim broke up a ball and it and

478
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 4: he was covering the guy and they kind of broke

479
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 4: it up and the ball just popped up and he

480
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 4: was right there and took it and went. He had

481
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 4: one last week force that kept them out of the

482
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 4: end zone. And uh, you know, like I said, I mean,

483
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 4: he's very very intelligent football player, and he's got three hours.

484
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 4: I'm gonna put it out here that he's gonna be

485
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 4: an EKU graduate just to keep him, keep his nose

486
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 4: to the focus. But he was on our three point

487
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 4: oh board too, So I mean he's doing great. He's

488
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 4: doing really good, and I'm.

489
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:20,400
Speaker 5: Proud of him.

490
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 6: You're talking about losing guys to other schools, other opportunities

491
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 6: and kind of tying in with veto here, how often

492
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 6: do you get the balance where you're able where a

493
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 6: kid was stuck at a big school and didn't get

494
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 6: as much of an opportunity there do you get to

495
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 6: see a lot of times you're able to, even though

496
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 6: you don't love losing a player to those schools, that

497
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 6: you're able to get something in return.

498
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 4: Well, the thing the most the attitude you have to

499
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 4: take is if you keep the old attitude that we

500
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 4: all had as coaches, then you're gonna be miserable. And

501
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 4: I mean because you're gonna sit here and you developed

502
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 4: this kid, you do everything you can for him. I mean,

503
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 4: Jaden Higgins is a prime example. I don't know if

504
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 4: y'all know who Jaden Higgins is.

505
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 5: He was he was.

506
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 4: The first overall. He wasn't he was in the second round,

507
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,120
Speaker 4: but he was the first pick for the Houston Texans

508
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 4: last year in the NFL Drafty Jaden Higgins is from

509
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 4: down around Miami. He had one offer coming out and.

510
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 5: That was US. Wow, one one committable offer.

511
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 4: And uh he came and played for US for two

512
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 4: years with Parker McKinney and did a great job. All right,

513
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 4: comes in, coach, I'm going into portal, all right. And

514
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 4: of course that was right when the portal was kind

515
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 4: of new. So I'm sitting there, like, man, this kid is,

516
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 4: you know, he just I think he had like nine

517
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 4: hundred yards receiving for US and ten touchdowns and I'm

518
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 4: like he's six three, you know, two hundred pounds and

519
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 4: can run like a Gazelle.

520
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:45,120
Speaker 5: I get it, but you know, I'm a little upset,

521
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 5: you know.

522
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 4: And uh, And so he goes and he goes to

523
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 4: i was you know, he had all these other offers.

524
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 4: He goes to Iowa State, and which was smart on

525
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 4: his part. He needed to go somewhere where he could develop.

526
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 4: He developed there, and like I said, he's the first,

527
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 4: the first pick for the Houston Texas this year. He's

528
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 4: starting for him and uh and so you know that

529
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 4: crushes you, right because you're sitting there, like, we put

530
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 4: two hard years of development into that young man and

531
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 4: you can't just you just can't replace that. You know,

532
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,360
Speaker 4: I don't care if the kid's dropping down from Alabama,

533
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 4: if he's I don't mean this to sound as bad

534
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 4: as this sounds, but if he's dropping all the way

535
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 4: down to us, he's probably not as good as Jayden Higgins's.

536
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 4: There's issues, whether it's talent or whether it's off the field. Academically,

537
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 4: he can't learn from something is wrong and you got

538
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 4: to figure out what's wrong and try to fix it

539
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 4: and grow him up. And you know that that's what

540
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 4: you do is when you get guys from bigger schools

541
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 4: to drop down and give him opportunity like Tommy's Seismer.

542
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 4: Tommy's phenomenal young man. I mean, one of the best

543
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:51,640
Speaker 4: kids you'll ever be around, and he needed some opportunities.

544
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 4: He came in and played in the spring, and you

545
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 4: know he's done. You know, he's been nothing but great

546
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 4: for us, and he was a boundary for us. But

547
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 4: we had to move him to We needed a noseguard,

548
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 4: so we moved him to the nose guard.

549
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 5: And he's playing well.

550
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 4: So yes, it's you just got to give up the

551
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 4: attitude of what you're losing these guys and it's everything's

552
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 4: a yearly deal. Now that's the negative of it all.

Speaker 8: Now, well again, thanks for having me in. Buck and

601
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,439
Speaker 8: I really had a good time. We always enjoyed that.

602
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 8: And I think that I really think that he gets

603
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 8: a lot of feedback on.

604
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:27,719
Speaker 7: His social media from all of that.

605
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 8: So so anyway, we had a good time. But you know,

606
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 8: really practice, what I saw was encouraging because it didn't

607
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 8: change my mind any that's for sure. You know, I

608
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 8: don't know that there was anything crazy that I can

609
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 8: tell you that that a lot of folks may or

610
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 8: may not know. But you know, getting to see some

611
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 8: of those guys for the first time was good.

612
00:25:55,560 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 7: But I think Drew may like to hear this.

613
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 8: Uh you know, I've been I've been a fan of

614
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 8: this guy all along, but I really like the way

615
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 8: uh Colin Chandler looks, you know, he he was shooting

616
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 8: the ball.

617
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 7: And that was the other thing that I you know,

618
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 7: that I took away.

619
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 8: I was a little bit worried about, you know, are

620
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 8: we gonna have enough shooters with the guys that we lost,

621
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,199
Speaker 8: But I was I was very encouraged by what I

622
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 8: saw because there were several guys that made a lot

623
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 8: of shots. But but Chandler, you know, he looked really good.

624
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 8: They they were They didn't do any real scrimmaging or anything.

625
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,360
Speaker 8: It was more of a teaching day and they were

626
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 8: working on you know, different grills and different things. But uh, beforehand,

627
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 8: before practice started, I got a chance to watch Jadon Quaintin's.

628
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 7: Worked out for a little while and.

629
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 8: My goodness, uh, if he if he gets when he

630
00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 8: gets healthy. Uh, he's he's a beast and can do

631
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 8: a lot of things. And but down low he's he's unbelievable.

632
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 8: Uh and he's he's just he's he's a monster.

633
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,160
Speaker 7: Do that. But I liked what I saw there.

634
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 8: But the other guy that I was really impressed with

635
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 8: was Yellow Itt.

636
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 7: Uh.

637
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 8: He he's a really good shooter, you know, and he's

638
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 8: every lid of sixteen. I don't know what they list him,

639
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 8: sixteen or uh six eleven maybe, but he's every bit

640
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,199
Speaker 8: of that, and he can step out and shoot the

641
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 8: ball and and he's he's powerful down on the block

642
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 8: as well. So Aberdeen looked really really good. My buddy

643
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 8: Trent Noah from Eastern Kentucky. I mean, you know, everything

644
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 8: they were saying about is shooting. He's he's shooting the

645
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 8: ball great and he looked great. So, you know, and

646
00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 8: and one guy that nobody ever talks about that I thought,

647
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 8: what really good yesterday was uh.

648
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 7: Uh let's see here, I'm Cam william Cam Williams, you know,

649
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 7: Cam Williams. Uh. He that we've got a lot of

650
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 7: link this year.

651
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,719
Speaker 8: We're we're going to be long and uh you know

652
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 8: that's where that's where I was a little.

653
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 7: Bit concerned about the shooting.

654
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 8: But you know, Cam Williams, Colin Chandler, Trent Noah, Denzel Aberdeen, uh,

655
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 8: every Jalen Lowe, everybody that I watched yesterday modea baute

656
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 8: can shoot it a little bit. He you know, he

657
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 8: looked good. But and j uh you know that's what

658
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 8: that's gonna be. The key to our team is how

659
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 8: good is he going to be, you know when the

660
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 8: chips are down, because.

661
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 7: Uh, he's he's quick as.

662
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 8: A cat, he's crafty. You know, he's a lefty and

663
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 8: he does a lot of things well. And you know,

664
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 8: my my point and all saying that I wasn't disappointed

665
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 8: is you know, I kind of felt like when I

666
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 8: saw all the pieces that I felt like we had

667
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 8: a chance to make a make a run up the

668
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 8: final four and and maybe a championship.

669
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 7: And uh, you know I didn't.

670
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 8: I didn't see anything that discouraged me. But of course,

671
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 8: all that is going to be based on the fact that,

672
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 8: you know how he puts all the pieces together, and

673
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 8: you know how everybody jailed together, and you know, all

674
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 8: all of that is based upon you know, a lot

675
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 8: of things going well. And then obviously us getting better

676
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,479
Speaker 8: as the year progresses, you know, that's uh, and I

677
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 8: think we will because when you have that many players

678
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 8: to play against, you know, every day in practice, you're

679
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 8: going against somebody that that you know is as good

680
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 8: as you are and can play the same thought you can.

681
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 8: So you know that that that brings out the competitiveness

682
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 8: in you and it makes everybody better. Uhciate, Yeah, yeah,

683
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 8: I'm I'm really excited about it.

684
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 7: I mean I was.

685
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 8: I saw what I was hoping to see and that's uh,

686
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 8: that's a good thing. And and they kind of answered

687
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 8: my questions about you know, shooting.

688
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 7: We've got a lot of guys that, uh that can

689
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 7: shoot the.

690
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 8: Ball really well, so you know, hopefully that will carry

691
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 8: over to games this year.

692
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 7: But but I'm really excited.

693
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 6: So it was a way of full participant. He's working

694
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 6: his way back from he's been in a boot all

695
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 6: summer with a toe, and I know that he's almost

696
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 6: back to full of full speed. But was he was

697
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 6: he out there with everyone?

698
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 7: Yeah? Well he was out there. He didn't take part

699
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 7: in uh in a future drills.

700
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 8: Wasn't there if there was any contact or anything, but uh,

701
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 8: he did do a lot of things. You know he

702
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 8: he's uh, he looked really good. Old ways gonna be

703
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 8: He's gonna be fine. I think they're just being cautious

704
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 8: right now, not trying to push anything and let him

705
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 8: get completely back.

706
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,920

Speaker 2: have exhibition games and a couple of weeks against Purdue

723
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 2: coming up. I mean, we're right here on it.

724
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, the Purdue, what is that three weeks from tomorrow.

00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 6: rapp Arena in three weeks play Kentucky three weeks from tomorrow.

728
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 6: That is just a crazy thing to say out loud.

729
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 2: Well, you have to hopefully they got to.

730
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 6: Figure it out. But you know, the Blue White stuff's

731
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 6: ramping up. Yeah, it's on sale. But the fact that

732
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 6: madness is eight days away and then Blue White didn't

733
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 6: Purdue all within the next few weeks and saying that

734
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 6: it's right up here on this but cannot wait to

735
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 6: get it started.

736
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 2: And he didn't say anything negative at all. Everything was

737
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 2: positive about every player. Everything he saw was like positive

738
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 2: enough to where he feels like he could support his

739
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 2: thought they could go to the final four, maybe make

740
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 2: a running a national championship.

741
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 6: Now, I'd like to get the Buck version, you know, Richie.

742
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,479
Speaker 6: You know Buck knows ball too, Richie the former player.

743
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 6: That's an opinion we take, you know, we trust more

744
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 6: than others. But I'd like to get Buck's thoughts on

745
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 6: Trent Noah looking good and how Buck was acting in there.

746
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 6: I'm sure he was fired up.

747
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 2: And at of Richie's top three guys you've been on

748
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 2: the Chandler Colin Chandler bandwagon. I've been on the Andres

749
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 2: yellowch bandwagon. Yep, he said, both those guys look good.

750
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 6: Well, some people that listen to this show for a

751
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 6: long time, we know Ball well that, but they know

752
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 6: I don't just start making crazy predictions. But Nick Richards

753
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 6: I kind of went out neck out there a little

754
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 6: bit for Nick. Richards said, y'all need to calm down.

755
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 6: This guy's gonna be Fineomnick almost one sec Player of

756
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 6: the year, if not for Manuel quickly they finished one two.

757
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 6: Now Chandler, I don't think that there's people that were

758
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 6: as negative towards him as Richard's, but similar circumstances. He's

759
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 6: a little late getting getting going, getting the groove of

760
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 6: college basketball. He's he's my next breakout star.

761
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: Well he's gonna come off the bench. But the thing

762
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 2: is good about that he could play the point, or

763
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 2: the two, or the three whenever you need him. He

764
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 2: can back up Otega, Lowe or Aberdeen whoever. Those three

765
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 2: guys are out there.

766
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,239
Speaker 6: And you know, Richie said, he looked good. We've heard

767
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 6: he's been a vocal leader. Yeah, I mean you want

768
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 6: that out of him. We saw a couple of dunk

769
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 6: highlights that they put in these short clips. He's gonna

770
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 6: dunk on someone's face this year.

771
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:42,479
Speaker 7: Uh.

772
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 6: I thought we'd get one last year after he did

773
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 6: it in the Blue White game when he dunked on

774
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 6: Brandon Garrison. I think, but Colin Chandler has a poster

775
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 6: in the making, sooner than later.

776
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,880

824
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 2: Well, we're talking about Draft Kings. Let's go to make

825
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 2: our picks for the baseball games. There's three wild card game,

826
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 2: three deciding games today. The Tigers, the Guardians, the Padres

827
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 2: and the Cubs and the Red Sox and the Yankees.

828
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 2: Of course, the Dodgers eliminated the Reds last night Summer

829
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 2: of la has come to a close. So who you got? Tigers? Guardians?

830
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 2: The Tigers had a fifteen game lead over the Guardians

831
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 2: going into September, and they collapsed. Guardians got hot, and

832
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 2: here they play each other in the first round of

833
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 2: the wildcard playoffs. So who you got?

834
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 6: I have already placed a bet on the Guardians. Turns

835
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 6: out I'm probably gonna jinx myself right now. I've done

836
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,240
Speaker 6: really well on DraftKings. With Baseball's baseball, this is easier.

837
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 6: Am I just getting lucky?

838
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 2: You're just a brilliant baseball mind.

839
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 6: I didn't lock in until this week. I'm a playoff guy.

840
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 6: But so far, so good, and I'm on the Guardians

841
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 6: in the in the early game today, Shannon.

842
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,240
Speaker 3: The Tigers collapsed in the regular season, They're gonna collapse

843
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 3: again today. And Withdrew, I'm taking the Guardians to win.

844
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: I'm the same way is that they've been playing horrible

845
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 2: baseball the whole month. They're not all of a sudden

846
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 2: gonna get good, good Guardians. We're all on the Guardians bandwagon.

847
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 6: Although I hate calling them Guardians, They're still not used.

848
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 2: To They're They're the Cleveland Indians. They are away Commanders.

849
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 6: I got used to I say it, but I still Guardians.

850
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 6: I have to like pause and think of what I'm talking, Like,

851
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 6: what is it?

852
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 2: Washington should have discne with the football team. Yea, they

853
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 2: went the Washington football team. That's what they should have

854
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 2: stuck with.

855
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 6: Guardians.

856
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 2: I'm not used to carry on Padres Cubs. I'll go first.

857
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 2: I hate the Cubs. I'll never pick the Cubs and

858
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 2: win anything. So I'm going Padre. The Cubs could play anybody.

859
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 2: I'm picking against the Cubs, so I'm going to all

860
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 2: Padres today.

861
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 6: I'm not a I'm not a Cubs hater. All side

862
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 6: with the Cubs. A big cat finally won his fifty

863
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 6: to fifty raffle after ten years of trying. Oh did

864
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 6: earlier this week, So well, there's there's magic in Wrigley.

865
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 6: I am going to go.

866
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,239
Speaker 3: I think with the Padres gonna be tough being on

867
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 3: the road, but I think San Diego is the better team.

868
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 3: I think they win today.

869
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 2: When the winner of this Padre Cubs series gets the Brewers,

870
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 2: I believe that's correct. Because the Dodgers are gonna play

871
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 2: the Phillies. That's gonna be a great series. Dodgers Phillies.

872
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 2: So then the last game, the big one, Red Sox Yankees.

873
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 2: Not a lot of love lost when these two teams

874
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 2: get together, Drew, they can play Tidley Winks, and then

875
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,839
Speaker 2: they can play whatever they hate each other. So Red

876
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 2: Sox Yankees, who you got?

877
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 6: I'm torn. I've watched every pitch of the first two games.

878
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 6: I love this rivalry, even though I really don't care

879
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 6: about either side. I like any one. I just love

880
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:16,799
Speaker 6: how nasty it is.

881
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 2: I kind of the same.

882
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 6: Uh. I'll say the Red Sox get the upset, just

883
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 6: to add some spice to the rivalry.

884
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,879
Speaker 3: Shannon, it is the greatest rivalry in all of Major

885
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,400
Speaker 3: League Baseball. I hope the Red Sox win, but I

886
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 3: think the Yankees win at home tonight.

887
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's at home. That's the thing that Yankee magic there.

888
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 2: I'm a big Aaron Judge fan because he's an adopted kid,

889
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:39,919
Speaker 2: so he's not a kid any more than a man.

890
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 2: But I want to pick the Yankees as well. Of course,

891
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 2: all these can be found on Draft Kings. Go to

892
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 2: DraftKings dot com and make your bets. There is one

Speaker 2: nine Ers.

902

Speaker 6: Rams are gonna win. It's a huge spread though, it's

903
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 6: like eight and a half. I'm not gonna touch that one.

904
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,479
Speaker 6: The forty nine Ers injury report is ruthless. Like every

905
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 6: the other day or last Sunday, they couldn't even get

906
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 6: into the medical tent because there were too many people

907
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,359
Speaker 6: already in the medical tent. They're they're beating up pretty bad.

908
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 6: I'll say the Rams win, but I have no idea

909
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 6: about the eight and a half points spread. That's a

910
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 6: big that's a bit a lot of numbers in the

911
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 6: NFL prime time game. Yeah, but Rams win this one.

912
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 2: Shannon Yep, I agree. Give me the Rams on this one.

913
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 5: Ram.

914
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 3: I'll even take the points on it.

915
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 2: I am too Rams and they cover, Yeah, because the

916
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,319

Speaker 2: But it involves you. Oh, you've told me this story.

932
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 2: You've never told it on the air. It involves ate

933
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 2: off for up a cat and the Lexon Cemetery. Do

934
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 2: we have time for you to tell it?

935
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 6: I can tell it, but it's some outrageous no one believes.

936
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 6: If I'll tell it, it's one hundred percent true. I

937
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 6: used to live over near Lecxenon Cemetery. Yes, and occasionally

938
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 6: like on a on occasionally did it once, but on

939
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 6: a Sunday, Abby and I went and got coffee, and

940
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 6: we're just driving around Lexington Cemetery because it's really pretty in.

941
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 2: There is a nice, very beautiful in there.

942
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 6: There's some famous, famous headstones in there. We were looking

943
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 6: for Rupp's grave and we couldn't find it. We were

944
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 6: in there what felt like forever, and finally I'm like,

945
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 6: let's just let's head back. I can't commit a whole

946
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 6: sunday to just driving around looking for RUP's headstone. This

947
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,319
Speaker 6: is a big place you get lost in there. We're

948
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 6: heading to the main gate. We've given up where I

949
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,879
Speaker 6: am looking anymore, and a cat runs across the road

950
00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 6: right in front of us.

951
00:40:58,960 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 2: Is it a black cat?

952
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,720
Speaker 6: I think so. This is where it's a little foggy

953
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 6: because it was a holy crap moment in the day.

954
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 6: I do think it was black though, And I jokingly said, well,

955
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 6: we should follow the cat at saganus Rupt's grave. And

956
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 6: I make a hard right on the road that I

957
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 6: was about to pass to go back towards where we

958
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 6: were in the cemetery, and I swear on everything, this

959
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 6: cat ran right up and set on.

960
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,280
Speaker 2: Adolf on the grave.

961
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 6: Yes, And we had like a moment where neither one

962
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 6: of us spoke for like five minutes, like did we

963
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 6: really just see that? Because I mean I don't even

964
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 6: couldn't begin to guess how many graves are there. It's huge.

965
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,359
Speaker 6: I mean we've spent forevery mask for it, and I

966
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 6: was just kidding about following this cat. But everyone, I

967
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 6: know you're rolling your eyes saying this is made up,

968
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,720
Speaker 6: ran right up and set on his headstone.

969
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:43,839
Speaker 2: I got chili bumps right now.

970
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,240
Speaker 6: I know it was very, very very freaky.

971
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 2: That was the ghost of Adolf Rupp leading you to

972
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 2: his grave.

973
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know what it was, but that's exactly

974
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 6: how it happened. We were on our way out and

975
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 6: I jokingly did a hard right to follow this cat,

976
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 6: like maybe he'll take us, you know, just being silly.

977
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 6: And then if you step out.

978
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 2: Of all the graves at the cemetery, it's set on

979
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 2: Adolf rope.

980
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 6: But that's the one you wanted me to get out

981
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,240
Speaker 6: in the final moments before Matt returns.

982
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 2: I thought we'd get to it on day one. It

983
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 2: made it all the way till day twenty one.

984
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 6: I thought we'd get to this big comment spaceship heading

985
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 6: towards Earth, and we're not sure if it's a comet

986
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 6: or a ship full of aliens. But well maybe Matt's
