During these minutes, I got a 63 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: couple of really fun stories that I would obviously love 64 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: to share. But you know when you ask coaches why 65 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: do you get into coaching, like why why do you 66 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: do it? Um? You know, some do it for for 67 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: the thrill of being around the game of football, the 68 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: excitement of Saturdays, the grind all of that which he does. 69 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: But him, like most great coaches, they get in it 70 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: because because the impact, the impact that they that they 71 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: have on the student athletes, these young eighteen the two 72 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,839 Speaker 1: year olds, UH, that they get to be around every 73 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: day to mentor to teach the guy to be that 74 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 1: that father figure. Um. And and continue listen, when you 75 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: take over, you tell these parents because you and I 76 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: were both in the living rooms, Hey, your son when 77 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: he comes to Mississippi State or when he is at 78 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: Washington State or Texas Tech, I'm gonna take care of him. 79 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: And and he truly meant that, and he touched so many, 80 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: so many lives and in that fashion. So I'm just 81 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm I'm loving the day right now of celebration of 82 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: seeing again his student athletes and people that know him 83 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: that were touched by him. It's just been awesome to see. Yeah, 84 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: it is, Um, it is one of those days wherein 85 00:04:54,960 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: you can quickly flip back and forward between being kind 86 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: of being saddened to the point of tears almost and 87 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 1: then just chuckling or laughing to yourself because of some 88 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: anecdote or some classic Mike Leach clip or tangent or 89 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: diet tribe that popped up.

He 94 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: was able to participate in organ donation at U m 95 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: MC as a final act of charity.

It 101 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: is unbelievably tragic, but the joy of his life is 102 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: also oh readily apparent. And I'm I'm with you, Aaron, right, 103 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 1: I've I've thoroughly and I've had a couple of interactions 104 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: with him, um that we're all very positive, right, but 105 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: but more so I know him through anecdotes and hearing 106 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: others stories with him, and the thing that always stands 107 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 1: out to me and then I really appreciate her. I 108 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: love all the stories where it's like like there's one, Um, 109 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: I can't remember who told it, but uh oh Lincoln Riley, Uh, 110 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: they're they're they're in meetings and we get to call 111 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: on his flip phone and he ends up talking to 112 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: this person for an hour, the call drops, he calls 113 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: the person back. Finally at the end of it, Riley's like, 114 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: who was that? And he goes, oh, it was a 115 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: wrong number. Right. There's like other ones about like this 116 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 1: guy who was like a dad at practice, and they 117 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: end up hanging out for an hour talking about anything 118 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: and everything. What I love most about Mike Leach is 119 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: that he just had an incredibly inquisitive and curious nature. 120 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: And I love to read biographies right of um of 121 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: of just kind of famous thinkers, people whatever throughout history. 122 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: And one of the common traits that you see in 123 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: a lot of these people are they almost have a 124 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: childlike curiosity. They can see something mundane, but instead of 125 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: just being like, oh, I'm an adult, understand it because 126 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: it works, because that's how it works, and say no, no, like, actually, 127 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: why does that work? How does that happen? And and 128 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: and he was insatiable. It didn't matter the subject. He 129 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: could talk to people about. Things are so long and 130 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: feel so connected with people and dive in with people 131 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: on so many different subjects because he was genuinely curious 132 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: about everything in the world and how everything in the 133 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: world worked around him. And I've always viewed that as 134 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: the hallmark of an incredibly intelligent person. And I think 135 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: his impact on the game of football and then others 136 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: speaks to that. I also love that in a game 137 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: that can be so rigidly defined as x's and knows 138 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: and um trying to say, Okay, what route combination is 139 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: gonna work here, whatever, that he was able to draw 140 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: from other sources and other avenues of like like philosophy 141 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: and then apply that on the football field. I mean, 142 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: my favorite Mike Leach tweet ever is right here. It's 143 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: his pin tweet from ten on his Twitter page, and 144 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: it says air raid offense philosophy, and it's a quote 145 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: from sun Zoo The Art of War and he says, 146 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: and tell me that this isn't the air raid, like 147 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: literally drawing from the military wisdom of the agents and 148 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: bringing it to football to revolutionize the game. And then 149 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: I sails the quote from sun Zoo is if he 150 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: the enemy is superior and strength, evade him. If his 151 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,599 Speaker 1: forces are united, separate them, attack him where he is unprepared, 152 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: Appear where you are not expected. Um, that's incredible that 153 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: he was able to make that a reality and had 154 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: so much success and touched so many lives, and it 155 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,599 Speaker 1: sounds like he touched yours as well. And and so 156 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: what are what what are these some of these kind 157 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: of stories that that you had with coach Leech? Well, 158 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 1: first off, like I listened to a I listen to 159 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: a lot of radio and shows and podcasts and have 160 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: worked with various hosts in my life. I will say 161 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: this like I would listen every day to a podcast 162 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: if you and him were the co host. I think 163 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: you two are some listening, entertaining people that I've ever 164 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: been around, and and just know so many things that 165 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: aren't just that that aren't football focused, uh, that are 166 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: just kind of you know, out there at times, but 167 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 1: I think are very fascinating and I think that's one 168 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: thing that we should all learn. And I feel like 169 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: I need to do better in my life. And I 170 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: think you do it well. I think he does it well. 171 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: Is um expand your your knowledge but beyond kind of 172 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: your comfort zone. Like I love football and I study, 173 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 1: I listen, I watched film, like I'm so focused on football, football, football, 174 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: well what and and obviously in my life with my 175 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: kids and my wife and my dogs, and I love 176 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: that too. But he's someone that will push the limits 177 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: and he will go out there and like you said, 178 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: read books on pirates to Geronimo and this and then 179 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: the other, and really you know, push his his essentially 180 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: his brain cells to the limit of of of learning 181 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: as much as he can and taking that all in 182 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: and just making him a very interesting person. So um, 183 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: I feel like it's for me as someone who's been 184 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: around him, I feel like that is something that I 185 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: can be better in my life. And then he's he's 186 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: taught the world of of you know, Yes, I could 187 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: be a coach at a very high level. I could 188 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: be one of the best offensive minds in college football, 189 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: but that's not my life, that's not who I am. Um, 190 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: and even talking to one of my co hosts that 191 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: that I work with say that all the time, like 192 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: you know, when he'll talk radio. When he was doing 193 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: the serious sex job job with with with Chris Childers, 194 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: who's my co host in the afternoon, they would rarely 195 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: talk about football, and Childs was like, you know, we're 196 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: we're getting paid to talk about football, and he's talking 197 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: about this and that and all these other hobbies. I 198 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: just think it's absolutely incredible. So yeah, I think you 199 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: two have been a hell of a show, like not 200 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: football but other interesting topic. It's it's wild because the 201 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 1: only so I only have two run ins with coach 202 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: Leech and one of them was back when I was 203 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: a player inn that SEC media days and he was 204 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 1: doing that x M show and I remember doing an 205 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: interview with him and I've never met Himore and just 206 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: being blown away. I had never done such a fun 207 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: interview in my entire life. And then sure enough, um, 208 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: ten years later, a decade later, it's COVID. I'm at 209 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: the movie theater Mississippi States about to hang like fifty 210 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: points in six hundred yards on defending national champion l 211 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: s U. The next day, no, I didn't know that 212 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: at the time, right, We never knew that kJ Costello 213 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: was gonna go for six hundred yards to get benched 214 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: two weeks later. Um but whatever. I'm at the movie 215 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: theater and I see coach Leach and the and the 216 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: Mississi State team there, and I like went up to 217 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: him and I introduced. You know, I was gonna like 218 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: pretend like we knew each other anything. And this man 219 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: starts talking about the fact that I'm Georgia and was 220 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: like bringing up these details. Me in his mind was 221 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: just razor sharp. And as I like how you put it, Aaron, 222 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: he did not waste that mind. He he pushed it 223 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: to its absolute limits. He stretched it out. He get 224 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: his tin drils in a little bit of everything. I mean, 225 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: this man caught taught a college course while being um 226 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: on on history and military tactics while being a a 227 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: big time football coach. So it's an absolute tragedy. But 228 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: it is interesting to see how already um he is 229 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: continuing to inspire and continuing uh to to encourage people 230 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: to spread out even here after his passing. So so, so, 231 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 1: what were your what were your experiences? Yeah, so, so 232 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: I'll go to my very first one. So this was 233 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: my my rookie year, uh calling, rookie year in broadcasting. 234 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: So I had a Washington Sake game. So we do 235 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: coaches calls during the week, and we're doing our first 236 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: coaches call. It is my first real interaction with him 237 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: as an announcer and with a co coach, and he's 238 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: walking around the town. So he's on his phone, he's 239 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: walking around the town and we got nothing out of him. 240 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: I mean nothing. He's like in the coffee shop and 241 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: I asked him a question, and all of a sudden, 242 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: he's ordering a coffee. I'm like, okay, I'll let the 243 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: order a coffee. So then he gets his coffee. So I, 244 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: you know, like, hey, coach, talking to tell me about 245 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: your offense. Oh hey, Joe, how's it going over here? Yeah, 246 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: you know, just getting ready for the game. I'm on 247 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: with CBS right now. You know, this is the production call, 248 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: And like, oh my, my goodness. So then he finally, hey, guys, sorry, sorry, 249 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: is my buddy? You gotta you know, he wanted to 250 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: know what's going on, and like the whole thirty minutes 251 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: was like that. He was walking around the town talking 252 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: with fans about whatever, and I literally did not get 253 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: anything out of him. So I'm like, Okay, this man 254 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: does not want to talk about football. So I learned 255 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: that really quick. So fast forward the next year at 256 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: another game with him and a man Amanda Balionists, who 257 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: who was our you know, superstar on does all the 258 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: Golf Network golf you know, uh broadcasts and does some 259 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: football sideline reporting. So I was like, Amanda, she had 260 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 1: all these questions like you're not gonna get shipped from him, 261 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 1: just like I don't even think about it, Like so 262 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: like this is just like a fun chat, like you're 263 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: not We're not getting any here. So she's trying to 264 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: do the same thing, like ask all these questions and 265 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: she's getting nut that out of him. I'm just dying 266 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: laughing the entire time. So that was funny. And then, um, 267 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: my last two you know exchanges was with him was 268 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: this this past summer as you see me d days. 269 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: So it's me, it's Cole Cublic and it's your boy 270 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: Hester or our boy Hester here and here in Atlanta. 271 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: I think you may have been in the room. I 272 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: don't know if you're in the room or not, because 273 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: you were there hanging out with us. Um, and we 274 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: got up talking about ties, like wearing a tie, like 275 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: a fancy tie. And he went on a whole tangent 276 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: about like if if he can go back in time 277 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: and uh, take care of the guy and tell him 278 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: he's a complete idiot, the guy who invented neck ties, 279 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: because he thinks it's the stupidest thing in the world, 280 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: you know, like like like that, like we didn't talk 281 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: any football, like we were talking about that is God Bowl. 282 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: That is the exact curiosity that I'm talking about, right, 283 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: because most people see a tie and you just accepted 284 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: because your cynical, you're an adult. This is just the 285 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: way it is, because it's always been this way. But 286 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: what the fuck I've never thought about this before. Who 287 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: actually admitted the tie? And how and how did it 288 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: suddenly become the accepted, Like you cannot be a serious 289 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: individual unless you put this thing around your neck underneath 290 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: the colored church. That's borderline absurd, Like it just makes 291 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: no sense. And and and that's something that I've never 292 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: said down and thought about. But he questions that, But yes, 293 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: he thinks about that. He questions that he researched it. 294 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: So like we had a whole conversation about the the 295 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: evolution of the time, why do we wear and where 296 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: it came from? Like that was our Yeah, because we 297 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: have Kirby and we have Saban, and we have this 298 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: coach and that coach. We're talking balls and x and 299 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: no's and players. We spent our fifteen twenty minutes with 300 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: him talking about the next time and I learned more 301 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: in that twenty minutes and I probably did the entire day. Uh. 302 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: And then you know my last interaction. I had a 303 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: missing State game earlier this season. It's the same thing 304 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: coaches called didn't get anything, just fun. And then we're 305 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: on the field and um, you know, I went up 306 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: to him and we're chatting and um, same thing. We're 307 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: literally thirty minutes from kickoff, minutes from kickoff, and he 308 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: was giving me on the field a breakdown of the 309 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: movie that they watched the night before as a team, 310 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: like giving it like his like rhyme tomatoes review of 311 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: like okay, you know, hey, Aaron, like we went and 312 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: watched I forgot what the movie was when we watched 313 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: this movie last night. You know, I gave it like 314 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: a you know, B minus like Ron's man, I was 315 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: like this, I like this, I like that, Oh my coach, 316 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: we're literally thirty minutes before Kikoff. Just give me something 317 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: that I can use on air that's relevant to the 318 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: football game. Like I'm trying to do my job and 319 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: he's gonna be a rhyme tomatoes review of the movie 320 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: they watched the night before with his team. But like 321 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: it's just he's such a fascinating with such a fascinating man, 322 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: and and just loved every moment that I got to 323 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: to to experience interacting with him as a coach. And 324 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: he's one of the one. He is one of one. 325 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: There will never be anyone. And that was also kind 326 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: of the genius of coach Leach in a lot of 327 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 1: ways when it came to football, is he didn't over complicated. 328 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: I mean, we see we talked about during the year 329 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: this season, we see Jimbo out with a spiral notebook, 330 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: like flipping through a million pages. Mike Leaches out there 331 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: with a note card just kind of glancing at it, 332 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: calling something every now and then, um yeah, he he 333 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: It's It's almost like I feel like when it comes 334 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: to design, I always feel like the Japanese have been 335 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: the master of mastering simplicity, right It's something that I 336 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 1: find is I get older, I appreciate more like yeah, 337 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: well it's like it's like it's like I don't like nowadays, 338 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: Like I don't want a meat lover's pizza. I want 339 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: a pepperoni, but I want the pepperoni done to perfection, right, 340 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: Like I don't care what kind of odd ingredients you 341 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: can combine. I want you to do. I want you 342 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: to make the best vanilla ice cream that I have 343 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: ever had. And that's what Mike Leach did a lot 344 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 1: of ways with the air Raid. Is he boiled this 345 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: thing down for years and years like some sort of 346 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 1: master artisan chipping away here, a couple of brushstrokes here. 347 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: He boiled down this offense, kept it relevant, kept it 348 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 1: um threatening for decades and and just continue to simplify 349 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: and simplify and and it's fascinating. And just look at 350 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 1: all the coaches and players that he had that are 351 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: now spread all throughout UM college football, the NFL. I mean, 352 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: it's like you said, Aaron, he touched lives and that's 353 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 1: why he got into it, and that was probably his 354 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: main biggest accomplishment. Do you have a favorite Mike Leach 355 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 1: play or game that stands out to you above all others. 356 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 1: I mean I enjoy every every time I had the 357 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,479 Speaker 1: opportunity to watch them. I mean I watch a lot 358 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: of tape on them, just covering that sec and just 359 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: you know, I've really loved these past three years him 360 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: and Will Rogers. I think that's been a very you know, 361 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: talking about all the time, like what what those two 362 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: have done together? Um, And he's just been to some 363 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: unique places. I think that's that's what. He's taken non 364 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: traditional teams and made them exciting from you know, Texas 365 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: Tech to Yeah, like like these places are not supposed 366 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: to be relevant or good or exciting, and he's made 367 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: them exciting and and a talking point. And you talk 368 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: about just the type of offense he runs, it's it is, 369 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: it is. It's a note card. But he will spend 370 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: an entire practice running one concept and and just four verts. 371 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: For example, Hey, we're we are only going to run 372 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 1: four verticals today in practice. That's it, and we're gonna 373 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 1: run it first every every combination of defense, every coverage. 374 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: And you're as a player, you're going to learn how 375 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 1: to win when you're not supposed to. Like you may 376 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: draw it up on the car and defense. Oh, there's 377 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: no way that he will find a way to make 378 00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: that work. I was funny. I was listening to Digna, 379 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: was listening to you know, Urban Meyer. I thought had 380 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: a great um talk this morning. Him and Urban were 381 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: down and flour He brought Urban, Urban brought him the 382 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: Florida and they were talking about certain concepts, and you know, 383 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: Urban was like, Okay, you know a corner route, so 384 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: you take it high angle to the corner. You hate 385 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: it versu outside leverage it sucks or so outside leverage 386 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: it's it's awful. You know, if I'm a I from 387 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,360 Speaker 1: a quarterback, I see outside leverage, like, okay, the play 388 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: is dead. And he said, no, no no, no, no, no no, 389 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 1: it can still win. I can take it high. I 390 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: can break it across the corner's face. I could take 391 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: it below him. I could throw a back shoulder from 392 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: a quarterback standpoint and keep it on the inside. And 393 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: so like he was always finding ways like I can 394 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 1: make this play work. Give me a player, give me 395 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 1: enough reps, and he will learn that no matter what coverage, 396 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: whatever it is, there is always a weakness in the defense. 397 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: And well that's it. Like I don't I don't need 398 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: to change the play and create five different plays because 399 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: of what the defense. No, No, We're gonna find a 400 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: way to within the play, adjust to bend yes and 401 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 1: your weakness. Yes, designed a concept to take on all 402 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: comers in one like it's it's it's genius. Uh. And 403 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: it reminds you of my favorite play, which I'm not 404 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: exactly I guess I thought it was four verds. Maybe 405 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: it was a corner, but it should have been dead 406 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: either way. My favorite player I ever remember exactly was 407 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: remember hold I was. It was that Michael Crabtree, cratch dude. 408 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: I was watching it. I was at the lake up 409 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: Atalina be in Louisiana watching with my old man. Now 410 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: I remember Texas being really good, but I was shocked 411 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: today when I rewatched it seeing that Texas Tech was 412 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: seventh in the country at the time. I mean, Mike 413 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: Leech and the Texas Tech Red Raiders beating the number 414 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: one team in the country while rang seven with Michael 415 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 1: Crabtree catching balls. I mean West Welker came out of 416 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: there right. The list goes on and on and it 417 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: um who was Washington What was Washington State his last 418 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: year or second last year? I mean they were, I 419 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: mean the problems. Yeah, the problem with Wahington State was 420 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 1: he just struggled in the Apple Cup and he had 421 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: some inexplicable losses, but then would have the classic Mike 422 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: leach Um inexplicable win where he beats the enemy that 423 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: is superior in strength Washington eleven wins. Holy shit, And 424 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: I know we gotta go here, but this, this is 425 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: arguably really dumb, and I can understand if somebody doesn't 426 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,199 Speaker 1: feel the same way, but there is a part of 427 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 1: me that is very happy that he went out a winner. 428 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 1: Like I know, in light of the greater tragedy that 429 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: it means nothing, but I know rivalry games meant something 430 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: to him. He knew what it meant to the community. 431 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,479 Speaker 1: As you said, he was such an active part of 432 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: the community. And so for him to get that win, 433 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: to beat a favorite, a favorite Old Miss team on 434 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 1: the road when they weren't supposed to, to to then tie 435 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: and finish ahead of Ole Miss in the standings, it 436 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: kind of encapsulates what his entire career was about, which 437 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 1: was punching up overcoming expectations. And again it's I'm not 438 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: saying like it's not where the focus should be, but 439 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,880 Speaker 1: it does make me happy that, um that he went 440 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,360 Speaker 1: out on top like that. Yeah, I had, I had 441 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: a heck of a season. Um.
