We should also mention we have a starting 0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:02.760 next week, do we not? Are we are we announcing 0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:06.320 this today? I think so? We already put it up online. 0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:09.680 Oh okay, go on, I'm listening. Yeah, yeah, So we 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.079 are starting a mini series. In years past we've done 0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:14.959 coach months where we've had a few coaches on or 0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:18.760 scheme themes. We are doing a series we're producing and hosting. 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:20.720 I mean, it's sort of an extension of the Solidverbal 0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:24.359 and it's on this feed starting next week called So now, 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:28.840 what about everything that we've forgotten about twenty twenty, the 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.720 most ridiculous year and recent memory of college football on 0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:34.360 and off the field, and what it all now means 0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:38.880 moving forward. So, you know, we're talking about conference power 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:42.480 and hierarchy and decision making and off field stuff and 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:46.959 player health and safety protocol and how the social world 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:50.680 has intertwined with the college football world, and we are 0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:54.359 quite excited to just with the benefit of time, unpack 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:58.959 and figure out what it all might mean moving forward. 0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:02.720 Does that all make sense? Yeah, we're excited about this. 0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:06.400 Actually, we came up with this idea kind of in 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:09.840 the throes of the pandemic towards the end of last season, 0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:12.120 when it was unclear you'll remember, for a point in 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:14.120 time whether or not they were going to finish this 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:18.079 thing out. We were recording shows wondering behind the scenes. 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:20.800 They even gonna finish this season out? Where is this 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:21.320 thing heading? 0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.560 We came up with this idea. We're excited about it. 0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:27.679 First installment of that is going to drop next week. 0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:30.560 So stay tuned to your podcasting app of choice, to 0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:33.240 our RSS feed, and of course to all of our 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:36.080 social channels for more information about what's to come. But 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:41.080 y gonna step away from the normal silliness of the 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:43.880 off season here. By the way, if you go on 0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.480 out to verballers dot com the Patreon, you can find 0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:50.160 the official announce video. We are going to be posting 0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:53.280 some bonus content from this mini series out there at 0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:56.119 for ballers dot com, so go and check it out. 0:03:57.080 --> 0:03:59.320 I should also add, just in terms of news, we 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:02.320 have the sc FCS playoffs happening and they're down to 0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:06.560 what the semi finals, semifinals. First time in nine years 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:08.800 that North Dakota State will not be in the semifinals. 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:12.040 Did see that? So we have what Sam Houston State 0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:16.360 taking down, I mean they took down the Bison right 0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:18.680 twenty four to twenty. It was a good game. Yeah, 0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:21.040 the number two seed facing off against number three seed 0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:25.279 JMU James Madison. On either side, We've got South Dakota State, 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.960 that's what the Jacks yep, No Rabbits, yes, yes, yes yes, 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:33.320 and your Delaware blue Heads fighting blue Hens, baby fighting 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:37.120 blue Hens who are not seeded. So we've got the one, two, 0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:39.839 and three and then Delaware looks like it was a 0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:42.880 crazy game and an upset against Jacksonville State. I'm going 0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:44.920 to try to watch these. I didn't really watch much 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:46.520 of the playoffs, just here and there when I would 0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:50.279 throw on the ESPN app. But I'm I'm kind of 0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:53.640 excited for this. Is that okay? Of course, it's okay, Yeah, 0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:58.359 I should think that happening Saturday are the semis, Yes, 0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.200 the eighth of May and then yeah, so three, four, five, 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:02.919 sixteenth will. 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.040 Be the championship game at two pm in the afternoon. 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:07.120 A lot of fans, Yeah, a lot of fans are 0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:10.760 watching this as you might expect. The one other note 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.080 I'll point out in North Dakota State, though they have 0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:16.640 been like the eight hundred pound gorilla in this room 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:19.000 for many many years running, now, they actually were not 0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:21.160 one of the top four seeds going into this snow 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.080 which is important context here. A great win for Sam 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:26.640 Houston State twenty four to twenty. Sam Houston was the 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:29.440 number two seed headed into that game. Now moves on 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:31.839 to face to face off against JMU. 0:05:32.600 --> 0:05:34.839 I will be watching, and I think they're playing in 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.839 Frisco once again, so goodbye me. Is there anything else 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.880 going on in the world, Dan, There is one other 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:45.000 thing that just jumped out to me, Utah and Wisconsin 0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:47.440 announced Home and Home in Madison in twenty twenty eight, 0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:50.839 and when you are fifty two years old Salt Lake 0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:56.800 City in twenty thirty three, A fifty two year old tie. 0:05:57.040 --> 0:06:00.480 Thank you. That's great. Yeah, that's all. That's all. 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:02.919 I thought you wanted to go into a long, exhaustive 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:06.600 breakdown of Tyler Buckner's breakout performance in the Notre Dame 0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:08.599 Spring Game, but we can save that for another show. 0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:13.440 Is that true, Tyler the Day, Tyler the Creator. 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.640 I'm coining it right now. I'm ready, true freshman, true freshman. 0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:20.360 Look, the part looked very, very promising, maybe as Notre 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:24.920 Dame's best quarterback. So your new maleigue Zayira, the new 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:26.080 Zaira is upon us. 0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:28.680 Yes, all right, okay, So so as we play our 0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:30.840 it's not even a game, it's our sort of an 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:32.679 early evaluation period. 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:35.839 Here is what cracks me up about the quote unquote 0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:37.200 early evaluation period. 0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:38.520 M hm. 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:41.960 We did this on the last show where we were 0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.600 looking ahead at twenty twenty one mock drafts, and then 0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:48.640 we said, oh, well, let's click into the future, and 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:51.680 then you get to twenty twenty two and twenty twenty three. 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:53.760 I was on Walterfootball dot Com. 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:54.840 They've been doing this forever. 0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:57.679 They've got guys in their twenty twenty four mock draft 0:06:57.680 --> 0:07:00.520 who aren't even on college teams yet haven'ty decided what 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:02.520 team they're going to play for, So this is what 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:05.960 they do. They look way out in advance. I'm sure 0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:09.520 they wouldn't even attest to the accuracy of those very 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:13.600 early evaluation periods. But nonetheless, we're looking ahead to twenty 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:17.680 twenty two, and we pulled out some names from was 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:18.720 it the Bleacher. 0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:23.120 Report mock draft? It was the Bleacher Yes, it was 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:24.000 Bleacher yep. 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:27.320 The twenty twenty two NFL mock draft that Bleacher put out, 0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:30.520 and we each grab five guys. We're going to break 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:33.040 down whether or not this is legit, whether or not 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:35.840 it's something we can get behind, whether or not it's 0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:40.000 something that we feel needs a little bit more research. 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:43.920 Where we stand on ten players that are listed prominently 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:45.920 as part of this twenty twenty two mock That sound. 0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:48.400 Right, Yeah, I have no ideas, That's absolutely true. I 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:52.480 have no idea about NFL destinations and making sense like, oh, 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:54.240 this guy should go to the Browns, He's a perfect fit. 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:56.680 I have no idea about any of that, but yeah, 0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:59.160 it's looking at where we've selected five guys and we 0:07:59.200 --> 0:08:02.600 want to give further context to their I suppose careers 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:06.440 thus far, and then they're twenty twenty one seasons and 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:09.920 the position groups they're in, and you know their coaches 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:12.720 and what they might need to prove and tough opponents, 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:16.120 and just sort of evaluate these players within the context 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.920 of how they'll be playing in their careers thus far. 0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:21.120 And I guess what they could do to move up 0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:22.800 in the mock draft for a lot. I don't know. 0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:25.280 That's something I probably can't cover with a certain degree 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:28.040 of accuracy. But we've selected five and I tried to 0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:31.680 go across the country and various conferences and such, so 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:34.240 you can you can start if you'd like. Well, I 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:37.040 want you to start with Spencer Rattler. Okay, let's do it. 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:41.400 So Spencer Rattler. He is going to be a what 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:46.320 red shirt sophomore correct going into the twenty twenty one 0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:49.600 season starting quarterback for Oklahoma. 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:51.559 Depends where you look. 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:54.720 I've seen some of the really early mock drafts who 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:57.800 have Spencer Rattler off the board before Sam. How I 0:08:57.840 --> 0:09:00.880 will do CM, How you can do. Spencer Ratler. Let's 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:02.960 talk through a little bit more about Spencer Rattler. He 0:09:03.120 --> 0:09:06.880 was you know, he waited his turn at Oklahoma, finally 0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:09.520 got the gig. I thought looked very, very good. The 0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:13.000 one thing you always hear about Spencer Rattler is, and 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:15.360 it's cliche at this point, can make all the throws. 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:17.920 This is a kid who has an incredibly live arm. 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:21.480 I joke about could really spin it. He can really 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:23.960 spin it. If you ever watch him throw, it's effortless, 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:26.320 and that's got to be something that NFL guys are 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:27.480 just loving drooling at. 0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:30.760 Yeah. I mean, he's the clear arm talent winner of 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.600 the twenty twenty one crop of quarterbacks, which doesn't look 0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:35.200 to be that strong and that deep in the way 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:37.400 that you know they lived last I mean this year 0:09:37.400 --> 0:09:40.520 and last year I suppose were. So he has that 0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:42.920 going for him in terms of draft position. If he's 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:45.959 not clearly the number one overall pick, he'll probably be 0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:48.880 drafted pretty highly just because it seems like a shallow class. 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:51.520 Here's the thing with Spencer Rattler. He's following up dudes 0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:54.560 who led more productive offenses and Jalen Hurts, Kayler Murray 0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:58.080 and Baker Mayfield, but in terms of pure armability, he 0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:01.400 is ahead of those dudes, and what he has around 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.760 him this year is encouraging. Creed Humphrey obviously is gone 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:07.040 up front at center, but he has his guards back 0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:10.520 left tackle. I mean, they have returning guys at tackles, 0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:15.200 but Janya Morris, the Tennessee transfer who was a big 0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:17.760 time recruit, he enters into the fold, so they've got 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:23.400 guys competing at left tackle. His receivers should be improving studs. 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.319 I mean Theoez Jaydon Hazelwood flashed in the spring game. 0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:30.560 Marvin Mims was very promising last year. They lose Charleston Rambo, 0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:35.440 but they have Wes Welker type and Drake's dooms. I 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:39.240 guess that's where we are right now. And I dug 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:41.800 into some of the advanced numbers which are not which 0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:44.360 I don't think tell anywhere near a complete story because 0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:46.360 there are always going to be variables involved. He was 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:49.920 slightly better throwing into zones than he was against man coverage, 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:53.480 but I don't at all doubt the strength of his 0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:57.520 arm to squeeze passes into two spaces, and then his 0:10:57.600 --> 0:10:59.400 touch was very good. He had some brutal drops if 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:03.000 you remember it, key moments last year, and so really 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:05.920 in terms of what you want from him is you know, 0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:11.400 continually flashing, throwing on the run and just looking like 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:14.400 he does on his fourth throw and his thirty fourth 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:16.760 throw throw. Excuse me late in games. Those late in 0:11:16.800 --> 0:11:19.880 game moments were really tough early on against Kansas State 0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:24.199 and Iowa State. And I mean skill wise, I mentioned 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:27.400 the receivers. No Ramandre Stevenson, but Eric Gray transfers in 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:30.640 Kennedy Brooks set out twenty twenty and he's back and 0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:33.480 it's the usual suspects. In terms of who you want 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.959 to see Spencer Rattler popping against, it's at Kansas State 0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:40.240 Texas on the neutral site in Dallas, TCU. They're at 0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:43.040 Baylor this year, which I think should be tough. You know, 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:46.240 David ran against another year with that defense, Iowa State 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:49.120 once again and Oklahoma State should be pretty good on 0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:51.160 defense this year. And that's bedlam on the road. So 0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:56.000 Spencer Ratler has every opportunity with who he has returning 0:11:56.040 --> 0:11:59.040 from a coaching perspective and from a player perspective, and 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:02.960 that there's no obvious killer defense on his schedule. Every 0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:06.400 opportunity to put up absolute cartoon numbers this year. 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:10.599 Yeah, and which Oklahoma quarterback over the last couple of 0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:15.000 years hasn't done that? He will do incredible numbers again 0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:17.199 this season. Not the biggest guy six to one to 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:20.440 two of five, bigger than Kyler Murray, right, but not 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:23.800 the biggest quarterback who's presumably going to be in the 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:25.079 twenty twenty two class. 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:25.400 Right. 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:27.800 The arm strength is off the charts, He's very mobile, 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:33.000 He's got a ton of poison the pocket. Sometimes gets 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:36.400 a little yippie with his throws, and sometimes trust the 0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:39.600 arm a little bit too much, throws into triple coverage. 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:43.080 But other than that, that's all stuff that can be corrected. 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:45.400 There's a lot to love about this kid was a. 0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:48.400 Fing You remember, we're talking about a twenty twenty quarterback. 0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:50.560 So in terms of his training in the off season, 0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.120 some aer yeah, some of the workouts of all camp 0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:56.520 like his, I would imagine we're going to see also, 0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:58.920 like just improvement across the board on both sides of 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:02.240 the ball the sport. I think tackling will be better. 0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:05.320 I think under fundamental understanding of offenses will be better 0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:08.959 from quarterbacks and coordinators alike. So I think Spencer Ratler 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:11.760 is going to be a big winner of a quote 0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:13.240 unquote more normal year. 0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:17.120 Yeah, okay, let's go to where we're going for we 0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:18.160 gotta go to Kyle Hamilton. 0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:21.079 Kyle Hamilton safety No. 0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:24.800 Tre Dame, six', four two, nineteen going to be a 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:28.800 true junior fifty one solo. Tackles last year he had 0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:32.199 sixty three in total per our friends over AT. Pff 0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:35.439 he hasn't given up a touchdown in five hundred and 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:39.040 ninety four covered. Snaps so what you like about, him 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:43.240 just from like an unscientific and completely biased, perspective please 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:47.200 grant me that. Always he's six,' four he's an. Imposing 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:49.920 presence he can do just about anything on defense anywhere you. 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:52.240 Need him if he needs to come up and, stick 0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:54.520 somebody if he needs, to blitz if he needs to 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:56.839 cover a tight end or even a, slot receiver even a, 0:13:57.640 --> 0:13:58.520 zero receiver he can. 0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:00.319 Do it he can. 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:04.640 Do it he's, also everywhere all. At, once Yeah You're 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:05.640 Michelle branch player Of. 0:14:05.679 --> 0:14:06.320 The year he. 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:11.960 Is everywhere his new, Defensive Coordinator, marcus freeman has made 0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:14.160 it known that he's not Coming To notre dame to 0:14:14.160 --> 0:14:16.800 make any. DRASTIC changes i think you're going to see 0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:19.760 a lot of the same stuff that we've seen over 0:14:19.760 --> 0:14:22.560 the last couple. Of years, if anything because there is, 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:26.880 some turnover especially In The notre, Dame Secondary marcus freeman 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:30.080 may lean a little bit More On kyle hamilton to 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:32.800 step up to make, that impact to lead the charge from. 0:14:32.840 --> 0:14:33.600 THE back. 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:37.080 I just don't think we're going to see anything drastic 0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:40.160 that's going to alter. His output the Schedule For notre 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:43.280 dame in twenty twenty one. Is ideal i'm not going 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:46.280 to Say That kyle hamilton will have an opportunity against 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:49.920 a bunch. Of killers, he won't but he is going 0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:54.800 to have an opportunity to set things up from the 0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:58.280 defensive side of. The football he's got some big games against. 0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:02.240 Top talent right you may not be the best team in, 0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:06.400 the world but there's. Always Talent wisconsin cincinnati is an. 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:11.680 INTERESTING one Usc Certainly sam HALL and Unc on halloween 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:15.120 weekend will be an Opportunity For kyle hamilton to showcase 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:17.960 what he can do. Out there he's gonna have to 0:15:18.040 --> 0:15:21.160 be the top safety off, the board may not be 0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:24.240 the top defensive back off. The board with Guys Like, 0:15:24.320 --> 0:15:27.440 derek stingley Junior who i'm going to talk about momentarily 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.840 also in the. Draft Class But KYLE hamilton i think 0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:34.760 sets up as a surefire top, ten pick barring any 0:15:34.800 --> 0:15:38.360 kind of injury or anything just going, you know in an. 0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:42.080 Unforeseen Direction kyle hamilton is about as close to a 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:44.920 lock as you're going to get in the defensive backfield 0:15:44.960 --> 0:15:45.480 coming out of this. 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:49.440 Next class definitely on the. Tall, side right he's listed at. 0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:54.360 Six force maybe he's, six' three so i wonder at six, 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:58.520 FOUR two twenty i wonder how he's used potentially as 0:15:58.520 --> 0:15:59.960 a hybrid because you mentioned that you can play in 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:02.440 the box and he can. PLAY in coverage i wonder 0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:05.400 if he's going to start getting looks, at outside Linebacker 0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:07.960 Perhaps in marcus, FREEMAN'S you know i don't know if 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:09.880 he's gonna, put on weight but, in his defense just 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:13.080 because you look at safeties who are drafted and generally SUCCEED, 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:16.320 in the nfl and it's, a little taller six to 0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:18.120 four is a little taller than what you're. Used to 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:20.960 seeing just because of change of, direction in coverage you 0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:22.880 like to get guys who are perhaps sixty one sixty. 0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:26.440 TWO at safety i don't know what those the difference 0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:29.920 in six' two and, sixty four really means but there 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:33.400 seems to be somewhat. Of A proto type so i 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:36.480 wonder if he's not that guy who every team actually covets, 0:16:36.520 --> 0:16:39.160 because he, can play you know he, can rush, the passer, 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:41.120 he can you know. Take a tight end he can 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.920 line up against a Receiver In that almost. Isaiah simmons 0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:46.400 type role that's that's going to, be fascinating to me 0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:49.560 just how he's used now in His Final year at 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:52.000 notre dame and MOVING. Forward in the nfl. 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:53.920 I'm excited to see what he does. AT the next 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:56.640 level i think he'll be highly coveted because of that 0:16:57.240 --> 0:17:03.480 ability to break out and not so much be pigeonholed 0:17:03.520 --> 0:17:05.560 into the normal. Role of a safety he can just 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:08.840 DO so much that i think there's a lot of 0:17:08.920 --> 0:17:11.879 value on, guys like, that nowadays especially nowadays. 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.560 There's a certain, joy By the way and i'm positive 0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:16.800 you Feel This way about kyle hamilton and have since 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:19.040 he became a rotation player almost right. Out of the 0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:22.359 gate when you root for a team that has a 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:26.199 safety who's just more advanced than everybody else on, the 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:28.919 field pretty much and you have that confidence that he's 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:31.320 going to make tackles, in the open field that he's 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:34.040 not going to bite on play action and get completely 0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:38.520 burned deep and just is that full on leader behind 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:41.880 that defense getting. Everybody lined up there there's a certain 0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:44.200 amount of comfort as a fan knowing that. Dude is 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:45.760 back there i've had a Couple, of Those At oregon 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:48.400 including javon holland who just got drafted i think early. 0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:51.600 In The second round so i'm sorry for you that 0:17:51.640 --> 0:17:54.600 you're not going to have that presence in your life. Probably, 0:17:54.720 --> 0:17:55.680 after this year. 0:17:56.040 --> 0:17:58.200 Yeah, and you know what let me stick with The 0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.800 Defensive Backfield, into derek stingley junior because he's another one 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:07.000 listed in this mock draft six' one one ninety. Good 0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:10.720 size for a cornerback he's been the nation's highest rated. 0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:14.000 Corner ever since twenty nineteen again PER, our friends over 0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:17.360 at Pff That's even higher than pat sertan junior Who. 0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:20.320 Just got picked on thursday so that's the. Caliber we're 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:24.600 talking about here playing against top flight talent to showcase 0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:26.840 what he can do is NEVER An issue, in the 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:30.480 sec west schedule is not goun in. Practice against his 0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:33.399 own teammates he's going to have plenty of opportunity to. 0:18:33.480 --> 0:18:37.199 Showcase what he Can do his freshman season dan in 0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:40.520 twenty nineteen was regarded by many as one of the 0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:44.080 greatest freshman campaigns of all. Time at the cornerback position 0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:46.320 he was out there a couple games and he had 0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:50.120 scout scrolling pretty much plug and play wiped out one 0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:51.800 side of the field the, second he went out there, 0:18:52.480 --> 0:18:55.720 just knows what he's doing knows has has the awareness 0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:59.000 to know where, his teammates are around him, to play 0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:01.679 off their strengths. To play to his, own to my, 0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:06.640 untrained eye very untrained eye it does not look. 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:07.040 Like there are too. 0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:11.040 Many holes in his, GAME before doing this show i 0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:14.160 went back and did a little research to. Read what other, People, 0:19:14.200 --> 0:19:17.560 thought it turns out nope no one. Can find any 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:21.320 holes either he's just about as close to a lock 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:23.919 at corner as you're going to. Find coming out of 0:19:23.920 --> 0:19:27.480 college somebody's going. To take him top five he's easily the. 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:31.160 Top corner off the, board he's a shutdown corner and 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:34.800 you know they've scouts have felt as much since the 0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:35.600 moment he stepped. 0:19:35.600 --> 0:19:39.400 OUT there as a freshman i will point out one, 0:19:40.359 --> 0:19:44.920 glaring flaw of His Game and that is DeVante. Smith 0:19:44.920 --> 0:19:49.480 turned him into ash he got Beat up really bad 0:19:49.600 --> 0:19:53.680 by Alabama's Receiving cor and, specifically DeVante smith last year 0:19:53.880 --> 0:19:56.800 and so that is going to. Be on, film for. 0:19:56.880 --> 0:20:01.280 Anybody and look everybody did every single human who Has 0:20:01.320 --> 0:20:04.720 tried to hang. With smith was Completely Torched, but THAT 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:08.480 includes derek stingley Who I don't remember what DeVante smith finished, 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:10.639 with in the first half but. It wasn't one hundred 0:20:10.720 --> 0:20:14.040 yards it was over too and Many Of. Those came 0:20:14.080 --> 0:20:18.040 against derek stingley so in terms of cleaning, up, some 0:20:18.240 --> 0:20:21.680 of his game, yes whether it's you know not being 0:20:21.720 --> 0:20:24.200 able to jam, a smaller receiver, like That there are 0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:27.439 elements but stingley to come onto the scene like. He 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:29.720 did as a freshman and granted you Also have to 0:20:29.760 --> 0:20:32.200 remember with stingley last year was what Hospitalized The night, 0:20:32.240 --> 0:20:35.000 Before the mississippi state game so he had he had 0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:37.439 some sort, of was an allergic reaction, don't hold me 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:39.280 to that but he had some, sort of, reaction to 0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:42.760 something was hospitalized and so we don't know how off. 0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:45.879
