And 33 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 3: as a competitor, that's what you look for in a coach, 34 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: especially a guy that you're gonna be around the majority 35 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 3: of the time. I'm gonna work with this guy. That's 36 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 3: what I bring to the table as a player, things 37 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 3: that you can't coach. And obviously the athletic skills that 38 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 3: I have as a player, but aside from that, the 39 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 3: passion and grant all of that. Just have a coach 40 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 3: with that same mentality that's gonna push you. You know what 41 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 3: I'm saying every day, that's. 42 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,119 Speaker 2: What you need. Exactly. 43 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: When we hired him, I normally sit in Cleve brownd 44 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: Zaly I said, in that chair, Yeah, and do sat 45 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: in that chair and it was just like electric yes, 46 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: electric intensity, magnetism, all of it. And at the end 47 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: we're like ready to run through a wall. For I 48 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: would say the only person that kind of match that 49 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: natural charisma intensity it's ever been in this studio with 50 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: Stone Colts Steve Austin, who is a professional wrestling legend 51 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: and oozes that. But it's going to be a lot 52 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: of fun for you come from a situation you and Travion, 53 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: You guys go two picks apart in the draft, but 54 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: it was that one two punch. And then today we 55 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: see the Browns in the fourth round, get Dylan Sampson, 56 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: who's the sec offensive player of the year. Kind of 57 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,359 Speaker 1: that thunder and lightning combo again one two punch. And 58 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: I don't know how familiar are with Brown's history, but 59 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: in the eighties when Bernie Cozar as a quarterback, it 60 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: was Kevin Mack and Ernest Byner won two punch right 61 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: before you guys got here, that guy right there, Nick 62 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: Chubb and Kareem Hunt were that one two punch. What 63 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: is it about that as a running back that appeals 64 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: to you? And obviously everyone wants to be the bellcout 65 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 1: give the ball thirty times a game. But when you 66 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: get to have that complimentary piece where you can always 67 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: be fresh and keep defenses guessing. 68 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 3: I think that's a major thing in today's game, the 69 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 3: way the game and what is changing to you can't 70 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 3: beat a bell cow anymore. I don't think a lot 71 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 3: of teams find that very useful. I think, you know 72 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: the system of using two backs is it works. So 73 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 3: it's something I've done in my career, got to stay fresh, 74 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 3: played with alongside great place and be able to you know, 75 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 3: have the same mindset and continue to motivate a guy 76 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 3: in the same room as me and go help the 77 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 3: team win. 78 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 4: So when we made the pick and we talked about 79 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 4: your skill set after we made the pick and selection 80 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 4: of you, one of the things that I said was 81 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 4: I love the fact that he is comfortable in that 82 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 4: role far as any changing, because a lot of times 83 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 4: you need a guy who says, feed be feet be 84 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 4: feed me, I'm not ready to go. But in your case, 85 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 4: it's not the case in that you give you the 86 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 4: rock and you make it happen. How did it work 87 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 4: for you that you were able to make that transition, 88 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 4: Because I know there are some guys who do need 89 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 4: a steady feeding of the football in order to get 90 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 4: that motor running. 91 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 3: Just really, man, just making the most out of my players, 92 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 3: you know, production on less carriage. You know, my high 93 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 3: average of yards per carry, those things that, So I 94 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,839 Speaker 3: don't need the ball a lot to be productive. So 95 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 3: I think I've been a bell cow playing in old 96 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 3: miss offense. Get them all a lot and seventy carries. 97 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so fifteen yards. 98 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 3: I've done all that stuff and then going to a 99 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 3: higher state where it's cutting half and still having the 100 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 3: same amount of production. I think it just speaks on 101 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 3: who I am as a player. But like I said, 102 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 3: I enjoy, you know, being a selfish guy and putting 103 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 3: the team first and do whatever to take to win. 104 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: Nice. 105 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: Great was it to win the National Championship? 106 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 2: Awesome? Bro awesome? 107 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 3: Like I think, you know when I came there to 108 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 3: win the National Championship, but to actually get to see 109 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 3: the confetti fall down and like everybody's screaming, and it's 110 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 3: just so much like different emotions and so much that 111 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 3: went into it, you know, the wins, the losses, all 112 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 3: the things that go into that moment. 113 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 2: That's what really mattered to me. And it's just like, man, 114 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: it's crazy. 115 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: Did you learn something and as being a part of 116 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 1: a team and also as an individual where look after 117 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: that Michigan game and you're gonna have to see Mason 118 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: Graham again in practice now. But after that Mission game, 119 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: it was dark. It was a dark period in Columbus. 120 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: The future of Ryan Day was called into question, all 121 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: of that. But you guys then rallied and went on 122 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 1: a historic run of dominance to the National championship. The 123 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns are down right now, tough year last year, 124 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: but you've been a part of seeing, Hey, we can 125 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: doesn't matter, we can turn this thing around. How can 126 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: you help kind of bring and infuse some of that 127 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: success and also that mindset here to a team and 128 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: an organization that is down and needs to come back up. 129 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's up? Mayby? Yeah? What's up? Yeah? 130 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 1: He's responding to Kevin's fancy and very flexing at him. 131 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: That was right there from the head coach. 132 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 3: But man, I just feel like that's that's just who 133 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 3: I am as a player, you know, bringing that passion, grit, 134 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 3: that mentality. I know what it takes to win a 135 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 3: national championship. I know what it takes to to be 136 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 3: you know, successful at a school and what it takes 137 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 3: to hold each other accountable. 138 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 2: And that's what I'll bring to this organization. 139 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 3: You know, that mentality, being positive in locker room, that 140 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 3: grit because it's contagious players they bunted at naturally, and 141 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 3: he had that right mindset. 142 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: Other players are going to do the same. 143 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: I just love the fact that you guys are coming 144 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: in kind of as a rookie fraternity.

On the offense side, You're 147 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: gonna be dealing with the linebacker Sweessinger. You're gonna be 148 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: dealing with Mason like every day. And I think that's 149 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: going to build a little iron sharpening iron, a big, 150 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: big bond. We are so happy for you.
