- 1:19Speaker 6: you doing man?
- 1:19Speaker 7: Always a pleasure, Yeah, man, thanks for having me on. Guys,
- 1:23Speaker 7: I hope you're having a starting a good week and
- 1:26Speaker 7: pretty good weekend. One baseball game in the books.
- 1:30Speaker 5: Uh, the weekend was fantastic. Guys.
- 1:32Speaker 6: Look, when you play against one of your rivals in Omaha,
- 1:35Speaker 6: you win the game like LSU did. That's up a
- 1:38Speaker 6: nice matchup tonight against UCLA. But CBU have certainly been
- 1:43Speaker 6: to Omahall before. You've called the Tigers games there. What
- 1:45Speaker 6: is it like this year, maybe even compared to twenty
- 1:49Speaker 6: twenty three, because the crowd looked electric the other night
- 1:53Speaker 6: against Arkansas. Certainly we see all the different scenes from
- 1:55Speaker 6: all the different bars there in Omahall, it certainly looks
- 1:58Speaker 6: like LSU as well represent it.
- 2:01Speaker 7: Oh yeah, no doubt about it. I mean, I think
- 2:03Speaker 7: you know, I learned both in seventeen and twenty three
- 2:06Speaker 7: that there's kind of waves of the purple and gold
- 2:10Speaker 7: that that that make their way here to o mah
- 2:11Speaker 7: which I certainly understand, and you know you're kind of
- 2:15Speaker 7: you're almost there to the second wave again. The Tigers
- 2:18Speaker 7: played later tonight take on a UCLA team which I'm
- 2:20Speaker 7: sure we'll talk about. But you know, if suddenly you're
- 2:23Speaker 7: able to kind of stay in that winner's bracket in
- 2:26Speaker 7: that road to the Championship series gets a little clear, yeah,
- 2:31Speaker 7: I think you'll have another way. But yeah, there's tons
- 2:34Speaker 7: of Tiger fans here, and you know, it's like everybody
- 2:37Speaker 7: else has probably said that you've talked to. I mean,
- 2:40Speaker 7: we got here with the team on Wednesday, and everywhere
- 2:43Speaker 7: you go, it's immediate like, oh, we're so thrilled unless
- 2:48Speaker 7: you made it again. Uh so glad to have you
- 2:50Speaker 7: guys back and U And that goes for every place,
- 2:53Speaker 7: not just the place with the jello shots.
- 2:56Speaker 6: Oh there's yeah, there's no doubt about that. Rocos is
- 2:58Speaker 6: one thing, but there's plenty of bars that are filled
- 3:01Speaker 6: with purple and goal. The other night, we were expecting,
- 3:05Speaker 6: you know, Ace on ace, and we got the the
- 3:08Speaker 6: Kate Anderson version of what we thought we were going
- 3:10Speaker 6: to get from LSU. But I just assumed, Look, zach
- 3:14Speaker 6: Rut's going to be in there. He's going to go
- 3:16Speaker 6: six seven innings, and it is going to be ace
- 3:18Speaker 6: on ace. It's going to be this lefty duel. But
- 3:20Speaker 6: Arkansas and Da Van Horne, they pulled zach Rude after
- 3:23Speaker 6: thirty eight pitches, and look, it makes all the sense
- 3:25Speaker 6: for you know, after you hear him talk about to
- 3:27Speaker 6: explain it. Now you know, obviously they saved a lot
- 3:29Speaker 6: of their bullpen when you know a guy comes in
- 3:32Speaker 6: and does exactly what Arkansas was looking to get done.
- 3:35Speaker 6: But how surprised were you that zach Rute only lasted
- 3:38Speaker 6: thirty eight pitches and they did make the move in
- 3:40Speaker 6: the moment.
- 3:41Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I think we all kind of understood,
- 3:44Speaker 7: you know, kind of what he was looking at. Although
- 3:47Speaker 7: I mean you either have to believe Dave Van Horne
- 3:51Speaker 7: has seen so much baseball that he literally knew what
- 3:54Speaker 7: was going to happen, which again, it ended up being
- 3:57Speaker 7: a three run ball game. So I mean, it wasn't
- 3:59Speaker 7: as if, you know, the wheels completely came off, and
- 4:02Speaker 7: you also understand, okay, you know, to get through the
- 4:05Speaker 7: long haul. His stuff in working tonight, he doesn't look comfortable.
- 4:09Speaker 7: Let's go ahead and go to Gackle, who I'm you know,
- 4:13Speaker 7: was was ridiculously good. But still, I mean that being
- 4:21Speaker 7: that early is the only reason it really kind of
- 4:23Speaker 7: surprised me. I mean, I understood the zach Rup was
- 4:27Speaker 7: you know again, you don't know what would have happened
- 4:29Speaker 7: if he stayed in a couple more you know, pitches.
- 4:31Speaker 5: But I mean it.
- 4:32Speaker 7: Didn't look good. That's awfully early to run up the
- 4:35Speaker 7: white flag. And I'm not and I'm not accusing him
- 4:38Speaker 7: of giving up the game, don't get me wrong. It's
- 4:40Speaker 7: just it did surprise me.
- 4:42Speaker 4: I gotta admit boys, what's happening, is Flynn?
- 4:46Speaker 7: What's un man?
- 4:48Speaker 4: Man, it's been a long time. Good to talk to you.
- 4:50Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 4:51Speaker 4: Uh So, looking ahead a little bit to the night's game,
- 4:53Speaker 4: would you s l A, how do you see the
- 4:55Speaker 4: how do you see Jay shaking up the lineup? If any,
- 4:58Speaker 4: how do you see the lineup playing out after the
- 5:01Speaker 4: former from the other day?
- 5:03Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I think he I think you know again,
- 5:06Speaker 7: Derek curryel and Jay has said this. This is not
- 5:09Speaker 7: me coming up with this. I mean he said, this
- 5:11Speaker 7: is the engine that gets LSU going. And again, you know,
- 5:15Speaker 7: Hunt and I talked about it on the broadcast the
- 5:17Speaker 7: other night. When you look at when Curriel plays well,
- 5:20Speaker 7: what LSU's record is, and when he struggles, and that's
- 5:23Speaker 7: a lot of pressure to put on a young man. Uh,
- 5:26Speaker 7: you know, whether he's a true freshman or not. At
- 5:29Speaker 7: this point of the season, that's still a lot to
- 5:31Speaker 7: put on him. However, it looked. It looked pretty good
- 5:34Speaker 7: and looked pretty successful, you know, down in the order
- 5:37Speaker 7: a little bit. But I don't know, you know, we'll
- 5:40Speaker 7: see I mean, obviously, I think it's always dictated on
- 5:43Speaker 7: pitching matchup and and so it wouldn't shock me to
- 5:48Speaker 7: see this the lineup be a little similar. But then again,
- 5:53Speaker 7: it wouldn't shock me with the with the analyzation of
- 5:57Speaker 7: of all the data and how they try to line
- 5:59Speaker 7: it thing up, wouldn't shock me to see something totally
- 6:01Speaker 7: different than what we saw on Saturday.
- 6:05Speaker 6: Now, Chris, we fully expect Anthony Iinson to be out
- 6:07Speaker 6: there and to be the guy and to do Anthony
- 6:10Speaker 6: Ironson things. But such a luxury for what Kate Anderson
- 6:15Speaker 6: did for you the other night, in the fact that
- 6:16Speaker 6: you only had to use Chase Shores for an inn,
- 6:19Speaker 6: you only had to use Cason Evans for an inning,
- 6:21Speaker 6: and so like having everybody available. It look even if
- 6:25Speaker 6: Anthony Iinson doesn't have his best stuff, which you look
- 6:27Speaker 6: last time out, he was barely missing some of his spots,
- 6:30Speaker 6: but he was missing and LSU had to find a way.
- 6:33Speaker 6: But saving that bullpen in game number one, even if
- 6:36Speaker 6: Anthony Iinson doesn't have his stuff, is obviously a big
- 6:39Speaker 6: deal for LSU.
- 6:41Speaker 7: Oh one hundred percent. I mean, that's that's kind of
- 6:44Speaker 7: you know, I was kind of thinking about it once
- 6:46Speaker 7: the game went final. You know, Jay was kind of joking,
- 6:49Speaker 7: but I think serious. You know, the day that Tigers left,
- 6:53Speaker 7: when he talked to the media about, hey, it would
- 6:55Speaker 7: be great to go up there and you know, start
- 6:58Speaker 7: the World Series with a win and kind of make
- 7:00Speaker 7: that path a little bit shorter to the Championship Series,
- 7:05Speaker 7: which obviously was thrilled to see him get and his
- 7:08Speaker 7: Tigers get Saturday. But again, to me, the biggest takeaway
- 7:12Speaker 7: was in a game where runs were at a premium,
- 7:15Speaker 7: you were able to keep Kate Anderson in there. Your
- 7:18Speaker 7: young man goes very deep for you. Chase Shores didn't
- 7:21Speaker 7: have to labor very much when he brought the flamethrower in,
- 7:24Speaker 7: and then Casean Evans and suddenly now you know, with
- 7:28Speaker 7: this intimidating gauntlet that the College World Series can be.
- 7:32Speaker 7: I mean, I don't think LSU could ask to be
- 7:34Speaker 7: in a better shape to have won that game one
- 7:37Speaker 7: against Arkansas and to have the pitching staff, and I mean,
- 7:41Speaker 7: I don't know how you make it. I don't know
- 7:42Speaker 7: how you come into the second game in the winners
- 7:45Speaker 7: bracket not feeling as good as you possibly can based
- 7:48Speaker 7: on what you still have available. Again, knowing that you
- 7:51Speaker 7: have Anthony Hynson to start your second game here at Omo.
- 7:57Speaker 6: Now one of the things is probably gonna get lost
- 7:59Speaker 6: a little bit. And look, I did it earlier this morning.
- 8:02Speaker 6: You're talking about all the things that you know attributed
- 8:04Speaker 6: to the win against Arkansas, and you kind of forget
- 8:07Speaker 6: about how good defensively LSU was. Some of the double
- 8:10Speaker 6: plays that they were able to turn, even the play
- 8:13Speaker 6: to finish the game, like, that's not routine by any means,
- 8:17Speaker 6: and Steven Milin goes, you know, and finds a way
- 8:19Speaker 6: to get it out and makes it look more routine
- 8:21Speaker 6: than it should. But the defense was so big for LSU,
- 8:24Speaker 6: and it's been good all year long.
- 8:25Speaker 7: Yeah, it really has. I mean they're on pace again
- 8:28Speaker 7: to be one of the best, if not the best,
- 8:30Speaker 7: statistically defenses in the program's history, which is again you
- 8:34Speaker 7: can go through the entire list of the players that's
- 8:37Speaker 7: one of the Purple and Gold and been great, great defenders.
- 8:41Speaker 7: So yeah, I mean, and you know, you think back,
- 8:44Speaker 7: that's one of the things that Jay just kind of
- 8:45Speaker 7: quietly talked about is this season went on, you know,
- 8:48Speaker 7: because everybody wants to talk about, you know, his offense
- 8:51Speaker 7: or you know, how's the pitching staff coming along. And
- 8:54Speaker 7: while both of those have had really great moments and
- 8:57Speaker 7: then they've had not so great moments, the one consistency
- 9:00Speaker 7: has been defensed defensively.
- 9:02Speaker 8: And you know, you.
- 9:03Speaker 7: Look at a team like Arkansas, I think they've been
- 9:07Speaker 7: held under two runs once this year. The other night,
- 9:12Speaker 7: it's a team that gets runners on. They're not the
- 9:15Speaker 7: most aggressive team as far as stealing bases, but they
- 9:18Speaker 7: get traffic on bases and then they seem to be
- 9:22Speaker 7: able to find the key hits. And for them to
- 9:25Speaker 7: have one base runner reached second base the entire game,
- 9:29Speaker 7: a handful of hits given up, I mean, it's just
- 9:34Speaker 7: I mean, wow.
- 9:35Speaker 4: I mean, and.
- 9:36Speaker 7: Again, some of those plays you talked about, that double
- 9:39Speaker 7: play early, the first double play of the ballgame, couldn't
- 9:41Speaker 7: have come at a better spot where all of a sudden,
- 9:43Speaker 7: it kind of looked like the strike zone was getting
- 9:45Speaker 7: a little elusive up. You give up the single and
- 9:49Speaker 7: then suddenly boom there's a strikeout and then he gets
- 9:51Speaker 7: the double play. But yeah, you're right. I mean, I
- 9:54Speaker 7: think defensively is probably something of all the things people
- 9:57Speaker 7: talk about for LSU from a Nash you know, media perspective,
- 10:02Speaker 7: probably the least they talk about is how solid this
- 10:05Speaker 7: team is defensively.
- 10:07Speaker 5: Chris.
- 10:08Speaker 4: You you mentioned earlier that Jay had said that Curie
- 10:12Speaker 4: El is kind of like the engine that makes the
- 10:14Speaker 4: roster go. But talk to us about what Mylin's doing
- 10:18Speaker 4: right now and kind of what he means to this
- 10:20Speaker 4: LSU lineup in this team.
- 10:22Speaker 7: You know, it's crazy, Matt when you think about it,
- 10:24Speaker 7: because I've had to stop myself a couple of times
- 10:26Speaker 7: from saying, hey, you know, if you're getting offense like
- 10:28Speaker 7: this from Stephen Mylin, you know that's kind of land
- 10:30Speaker 7: yapp because that's that's I mean that that that really
- 10:35Speaker 7: doesn't tell the whole story because we all know what
- 10:37Speaker 7: Stephen mylm is able to do at the bat, which
- 10:40Speaker 7: is nothing more impressive to me is just the way
- 10:43Speaker 7: he goes as a switch hitter from from left to right.
- 10:46Speaker 7: So that's let's give him prop So it's not as
- 10:49Speaker 7: if suddenly out of nowhere Steven Mylem's producing. But it
- 10:51Speaker 7: had been a tough season as solid as he's been
- 10:54Speaker 7: at shortstop, and now all of a sudden, where he's
- 10:57Speaker 7: spent most of the season, or at least the back
- 11:00Speaker 7: half of the season towards the back of the lineup,
- 11:02Speaker 7: he's starting to see him move up a little bit
- 11:05Speaker 7: and contribute. And you know, again, in a game like
- 11:08Speaker 7: Saturday's game where base runners ready to premium and runs
- 11:12Speaker 7: are ready to premium, I mean, you get a night
- 11:14Speaker 7: like that out of Stephn Milem that makes a difference
- 11:18Speaker 7: in the ball game.
- 11:21Speaker 6: All right, there, he is the voice the LSU Tigers.
- 11:24Speaker 6: Chris Blair, good enough to join us from Omaha. Chris,
- 11:27Speaker 6: we appreciate the time, enjoy Omaha, and good luck on
- 11:30Speaker 6: the call tonight.

- 11:45Speaker 6: makes it to the Championship Series, like can we find
- 11:49Speaker 6: a way to.
- 11:50Speaker 5: Be there and also do the show some way somehow.
- 11:52Speaker 4: Yea, we probably maybe we probably run a little van
- 11:57Speaker 4: well church fan to have power, like, oh we need
- 11:59Speaker 4: to like plug in. Oh you can bring U do.
- 12:02Speaker 5: It in a van down by the river.
- 12:07Speaker 4: Here we are by the river here in Omaha OTB.
- 12:11Speaker 5: I mean that would be on brand for us.
- 12:13Speaker 4: It would be actually pretty good.
- 12:14Speaker 5: I know, I know.
- 12:15Speaker 4: There's pretty pretty famous uh pretty famous podcast people doing.
- 12:19Speaker 6: Some stuff in Blessing with the Boys. Oh yeah, yeah,
- 12:23Speaker 6: shout out Will, shout up Taylor trying to think you
- 12:28Speaker 6: didn't you didn't cross paths with either one of those. No, okay,
- 12:31Speaker 6: make sure it's like six degrees of Matt Flynn.
- 12:33Speaker 5: Just trying to make sure.
- 12:34Speaker 4: I was teammates with a lot of people. Uh kind
- 12:37Speaker 4: of I could have been actually kind of hard to
- 12:39Speaker 4: keep up with it.
- 12:41Speaker 5: Maybe it's off maybe a couple of.
- 12:43Speaker 4: Teams that I knew exactly like five people's names on
- 12:46Speaker 4: my team.
- 12:46Speaker 5: There you go, that's all right, you knew those five.
- 12:49Speaker 6: Those five meant something to you, all right when we

- 16:54Speaker 6: Fifteen of them. What a lot of strikeouts. Almost set
- 16:59Speaker 6: the franchise record. I believe it's sixteen. So he strikes
- 17:03Speaker 6: out fifteen Rockies. Well, the Braves won obviously, they lost
- 17:08Speaker 6: ten to one.
- 17:11Speaker 2: Oh, how do you score ten runs?
- 17:14Speaker 6: Grand Homes struck out fifteen Rockies and they lost the
- 17:18Speaker 6: game ten to one.
- 17:21Speaker 1: Oh, was it just like strike out home run?
- 17:24Speaker 2: Strikeout home run?
- 17:25Speaker 4: Like what appen?
- 17:26Speaker 6: The wheels came off after they took out Grant Homes completely?
- 17:31Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 17:31Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, it gave up ten a season high for
- 17:35Speaker 9: the Rockies, and runs gotta.
- 17:37Speaker 5: Be probably.
- 17:40Speaker 6: Series high just from the one game that's probably probably. Yeah,
- 17:44Speaker 6: Rockies been strike out fifteen and lose ten to one.
- 17:47Speaker 5: It's hard to do. It's impressive.
- 17:48Speaker 4: Actually, the Rockies kind of went a little run there after.
- 17:52Speaker 6: We a little bit after we poopoo on.
- 17:55Speaker 4: Yeah, we can winner here. This is like one of
- 17:59Speaker 4: the big I guess winners probably of the year. Mister
- 18:03Speaker 4: JJ spawn JJ spawn rallied held off in an absolutely
- 18:10Speaker 4: diabolical golf course to win the US Open yesterday. It
- 18:14Speaker 4: was absolutely We can get into more about the details later,
- 18:19Speaker 4: but yeah, holds on to win his first major, only
- 18:21Speaker 4: a second PGA tournament victory in his career, and he's
- 18:25Speaker 4: been at it for quite a while. But yeah, takes
- 18:28Speaker 4: home four point three million dollars.
- 18:31Speaker 6: I mean, I'm sure Sam Burns took home a pretty
- 18:33Speaker 6: good purse as well.
- 18:34Speaker 4: He took home a good purse and he is probably
- 18:40Speaker 4: very upset about making that money.
- 18:41Speaker 5: Yeah, I know it.
- 18:42Speaker 4: Was a tough It was a tough last twelve holes
- 18:45Speaker 4: for that guy. Yeah, but we can get into that.
- 18:47Speaker 4: But yeah, JJ spawn, we're all about the weekend winners
- 18:50Speaker 4: right now. Held it off and jumped on the scene,
- 18:53Speaker 4: absolutely exploded onto the scene. Most people hadn't heard of
- 18:57Speaker 4: this guy who's a casual golf fan, but it really consistent,
- 19:01Speaker 4: good player, I guess on the PGA for a long time.
- 19:05Speaker 4: Has really popped off this year. He got in a
- 19:07Speaker 4: playoff with Rory at the Players Championship earlier this year.
- 19:11Speaker 4: But before that it only won one time at the
- 19:14Speaker 4: Valero Open in twenty twenty two. So JJ Spaine US
- 19:18Speaker 4: Open can't ever take that away from him.
- 19:21Speaker 5: Last forever bet they do moves. She got a weekend winner.
- 19:24Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, he kind of talks about him earlier
- 19:27Speaker 9: in the first time we were talking College World Series.
- 19:29Speaker 9: But Jacob Borson summed up pitching the deer from coastalth Carolina.
- 19:34Speaker 5: Awesome last night.
- 19:35Speaker 9: Man to be on that stage, winner's bracket, take control
- 19:37Speaker 9: of the thing. He just goes a cool seven and
- 19:40Speaker 9: a third, no big deal against the program like Oregon
- 19:43Speaker 9: State and punches out of them.
- 19:44Speaker 4: Leave.
- 19:45Speaker 9: It was seven that he punched out, just gave up
- 19:47Speaker 9: the one run. Catter was filthy.
- 19:49Speaker 4: He's got a shanz two and oh two days off.
- 19:53Speaker 5: All right, Hey, he's a large human being as well,
- 19:56Speaker 5: giant man. Yes, my god.
- 19:57Speaker 6: Chris Buden was interviewing him after the game. I was like,
- 20:00Speaker 6: how's the air up there, fella, Jesus te.
- 20:03Speaker 1: Yeah, first weekend winning for me. We had already talked
- 20:06Speaker 1: about this previously as well. Louisville Cardinals, I mean it
- 20:08Speaker 1: looked like their season was over. They looked dead in
- 20:11Speaker 1: the water. They rally get a big time win over
- 20:13Speaker 1: Arizona to send them home. And I'll pair this with
- 20:17Speaker 1: my weekend loser, the NCAA, because when Arizona went home,
- 20:22Speaker 1: you know they put up a picture of the Arizona
- 20:24Speaker 1: baseball team saying thank you for your good season. Well
- 20:27Speaker 1: they did that, and here's the Arizona baseball team. The
- 20:30Speaker 1: only problem is when I scroll up in the tweet
- 20:33Speaker 1: they tag the Arkansas Razorbacks baseball team, and you can say, okay, Arizona, Arkansas. No,
- 20:41Speaker 1: this is Razorback Baseball not even close to Arizona. So, uh,
- 20:45Speaker 1: good for you, NCAA, you got you got Arizona right here,
- 20:49Speaker 1: and then you.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Tag the Arkansas Razorbacks. Stay hot.
- 20:52Speaker 4: They're just used to doing that this time of the year.
- 20:54Speaker 4: I was, I was trying to look that up earlier.
- 20:57Speaker 4: What is their tag arkanasa or whatever it was? You know,
- 21:04Speaker 4: I get it.
- 21:04Speaker 6: Maybe it's a little slept now now and it's like
- 21:06Speaker 6: a Razorback like wrong in turn got fire. Probably probably
- 21:13Speaker 6: somebody somebody's heads got a roll unfortunately.
- 21:17Speaker 5: Immediately, Yeah, that happened. Uh weekend winter, the box office
- 21:23Speaker 5: is back.
- 21:25Speaker 6: I love going to movies, Doug, don't you know, don't
- 21:27Speaker 6: get to do it often with you know, uh all
- 21:29Speaker 6: the the youth sports and such. Love going to the movies.
- 21:34Speaker 6: One of my favorite things that I've ever done in
- 21:36Speaker 6: this profession. So I used to travel to uh the
- 21:39Speaker 6: games for Cox Sports and on Fox Sports Radio. I
- 21:43Speaker 6: would do a hit for the SEC but also at
- 21:46Speaker 6: the end of it, I'd go see a movie on
- 21:48Speaker 6: the road because I was by myself and it was
- 21:50Speaker 6: like I'd give a movie review on Fox Sports Radio.
- 21:53Speaker 6: Used to love it, right, So the box office for
- 21:55Speaker 6: a while went away.
- 21:56Speaker 5: I think it might be back.
- 21:58Speaker 6: How to Train Your Dragon made a eighty four million
- 22:00Speaker 6: dollars on opening weekend. Leelo and Stitch made to this
- 22:04Speaker 6: date three hundred and sixty six million, Mission Impossible one
- 22:09Speaker 6: hundred and sixty six million. Now the worldwide gross is
- 22:13Speaker 6: like over four hundred million, so I don't know. I mean,
- 22:16Speaker 6: even Karate Kid Legends, they keep squeezing that in forty
- 22:20Speaker 6: four million. Final Destination, Bloodlines one hundred and thirty one million.
- 22:27Speaker 4: Right, hold on, you're telling me right now, there's a
- 22:31Speaker 4: Final Destination, a Karate Kid, Leila and Stitch, a Mission.
- 22:36Speaker 5: Impossible, and How to Train Your Dragon?
- 22:38Speaker 4: And this is not nineteen ninety eight.
- 22:40Speaker 6: Yeah, all of them, all of them a sequel or
- 22:44Speaker 6: a remake. Yes, So the box office numbers are big.
- 22:49Speaker 5: We love that, No, they are.
- 22:51Speaker 2: We went to the movies on Friday and like, it was,
- 22:53Speaker 2: what did you say? You saw? How I Train Your Dragon?
- 22:56Speaker 2: Not my choice, Victoria's choice?
- 22:57Speaker 5: Well, how was it so you and your wife?
- 23:00Speaker 4: No, we met with.
- 23:01Speaker 2: A couple that has like a kid, and they picked it.
- 23:04Speaker 5: So was a child with y'all.
- 23:06Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, all right, all right, I.
- 23:08Speaker 5: Say if you if y'all went and there was like no, no, no, no,
- 23:11Speaker 5: we got it.
- 23:12Speaker 6: We got ceial lists came out as well. Rom Com
- 23:14Speaker 6: made twelve, so it was good.
- 23:16Speaker 1: I obviously went in completely blind, didn't know anything about
- 23:19Speaker 1: it and never saw the animated so.
- 23:21Speaker 4: It was pretty good. But you can make you can
- 23:23Speaker 4: make a billion people. The point was like the theater.
- 23:25Speaker 5: Like I'm just saying with the other options, like there's
- 23:27Speaker 5: some really.
- 23:28Speaker 4: Good, good options. But I've been known to sit there
- 23:31Speaker 4: and watch a movie with my kids at home or something,
- 23:34Speaker 4: and everybody's already left the room or falling asleep, and
- 23:37Speaker 4: I'm sitting there just this is into it, not even
- 23:40Speaker 4: noticing they're gone. Oh.
- 23:42Speaker 6: I had never seen the movie, Luca Disney movie, and
- 23:45Speaker 6: I put it on for Harlow. She was interested for
- 23:47Speaker 6: like thirty minutes and so, which is a long time
- 23:50Speaker 6: for a two year old. And I sat there and
- 23:51Speaker 6: I looked up after thirty more minutes like, oh, yeah,
- 23:54Speaker 6: been here anymore?
- 23:56Speaker 5: You're they were running that invest But at the end
- 23:58Speaker 5: of these sea monsters.
- 23:59Speaker 4: They were riding that vespa, riding that downhill bicycle.
- 24:04Speaker 5: I'm like, I'm I'm pop committed at this point. I
- 24:06Speaker 5: never tell you before.
- 24:07Speaker 4: I mean, go to the movies these days. It ain't cheap.
- 24:10Speaker 5: Uh tell me more.
- 24:12Speaker 4: Oh and one of those like movie themed popcorn buckets. Yeah, oh,
- 24:18Speaker 4: but I mean we're looking at twenty five thirty bucks
- 24:21Speaker 4: for that thing. Yep, but nothing hits like a movie
- 24:24Speaker 4: theater popcorn.
- 24:25Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure the Mission Impossible one has like a
- 24:29Speaker 6: set of keys that you have to put together and
- 24:31Speaker 6: unlock the top to get the popcorn.
- 24:35Speaker 5: I take that one.
- 24:36Speaker 4: See the one for Dune too, kind of weird looking, Yeah,
- 24:39Speaker 4: I want to google that one.
- 24:40Speaker 5: Keebob Black that one? Sure he did. Any more weekend
- 24:44Speaker 5: winners or losers? You want to talk about the red
- 24:49Speaker 5: Sox trade? No, I do not want to talk about
- 24:51Speaker 5: the red Sox trade at all.
- 24:52Speaker 9: Don't know they really ruined the great weekend of sweeping
- 24:55Speaker 9: the Yankees, didn't they.
- 24:56Speaker 5: I thought it was gonna be a weekend loser for you.
- 24:58Speaker 5: It's why I gave you the floor.
- 24:59Speaker 9: I mean, it is weekend loser, but I figured.
- 25:04Speaker 4: I mean, I don't want to because he's lush talking
- 25:07Speaker 4: about don't want to do it to Sam Burns. So
- 25:08Speaker 4: I'm just gonna say that golf fans in general that
- 25:12Speaker 4: were locked into the US Open having to come back
- 25:15Speaker 4: after the rain delay yesterday in an absolute just pile
- 25:19Speaker 4: of wetness on that golf course and watching the best
- 25:23Speaker 4: golfers in the world go for this title in that
- 25:25Speaker 4: kind of environment, most people struggled. Now a couple people
- 25:28Speaker 4: rallied and played great in it, but goodness, it was
- 25:31Speaker 4: a wet mess. I would have I think a lot
- 25:33Speaker 4: of people out there might have liked to see that
- 25:34Speaker 4: kind of good delayed to Monday.
- 25:36Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd give weekend loser golf fans. It's like, sure,
- 25:39Speaker 1: it's the US Open.
- 25:41Speaker 4: Nine of the.
- 25:42Speaker 1: Big name players were in contention, like Sam burn is
- 25:45Speaker 1: probably the only name you know, and then he collapsed.
- 25:49Speaker 4: Yet Scott, you had some people up there, but it
- 25:52Speaker 4: looked for a long time like we were going to
- 25:54Speaker 4: see somebody win by default because everybody else lost it. Yep,
- 25:58Speaker 4: thank god that jaspont I actually kind of went out
- 26:00Speaker 4: there and won it, so it kind of gave us
- 26:02Speaker 4: something to cheerful. But man, that course, with it being wet,
- 26:06Speaker 4: it was eating him up already, but with it being wet,
- 26:08Speaker 4: it might have been nice to see this that thing
- 26:11Speaker 4: get kind of pushed to Monday. I agree with you
- 26:13Speaker 4: on that. Of course, two golf takes getting of course
- 26:18Speaker 4: looked awful. I mean, what would you've shot on that
- 26:22Speaker 4: course after the rain seven hundred seven hundred lease and
- 26:27Speaker 4: then Jase's fund and then it started raining. He had
- 26:29Speaker 4: this the shot of his life walking up to the
- 26:32Speaker 4: green on eighteen. He had to make a tuput from
- 26:35Speaker 4: like god knows where, other side of the earth and
- 26:38Speaker 4: it starts raining on him hard.
- 26:43Speaker 5: Got a boy, all right, We got Shaye Dixon.
- 26:47Speaker 6: Now Shay, he's got some scheduling, so we'll probably have
- 26:49Speaker 6: a quick segment and then get to Shay around eight
- 26:52Speaker 6: point forty. But obviously some big LSU recruiting news to go. Look,
- 26:57Speaker 6: I mean they right now looks like they could have
- 27:00Speaker 6: the number one class in the country when it's all
- 27:02Speaker 6: said and done.
- 27:03Speaker 5: So a lot of recruiting news to go over.
- 27:05Speaker 6: A five star receiver that's committed to LSU was in
- 27:09Speaker 6: a full Tennessee uniform on an official visit over the weekend.
- 27:12Speaker 5: So we'll get to all that with Shadez when we

- 28:37Speaker 3: the bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.
- 28:44Speaker 6: H right, Welcome backan O TV one four five ESPN
- 28:47Speaker 6: Baton Rouge Tata. You are certainly the member of the
- 28:51Speaker 6: team that keeps up with recruiting the most. Tristan Keys
- 28:56Speaker 6: is somebody that is a five star player committed to LSU,
- 29:00Speaker 6: one of the top receivers certainly in the country. This
- 29:04Speaker 6: last weekend he was seen in a Tennessee uniform and
- 29:08Speaker 6: enjoying himself.
- 29:09Speaker 5: And it's not uncommon for us to see that.
- 29:14Speaker 6: Well, what are your thoughts if you're an LSU coach
- 29:18Speaker 6: or if you're somebody that has this kid committed and
- 29:21Speaker 6: you see that, you get a little worried there.
- 29:22Speaker 2: Tite No, Okay.
- 29:26Speaker 1: So the last time I filled in for you guys,
- 29:28Speaker 1: right after Memorial Day, he had taken a trip to
- 29:32Speaker 1: Miami on official visit. So I started reaching out to people,
- 29:35Speaker 1: and Bryce Coon for go to Verse seven hopped on
- 29:38Speaker 1: with me.
- 29:39Speaker 4: He actually went to.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Mississippi, visited with him, visited with the coaches and everything,
- 29:43Speaker 1: and his take on it was kind of, Look, he's
- 29:46Speaker 1: fully committed to LSU, but he's a guy that wants
- 29:49Speaker 1: to get out, wants to see the sites, wants to
- 29:50Speaker 1: take his visits. I mean, he didn't seem overly concerned
- 29:53Speaker 1: with like, hey, this guy might be a flip risk,
- 29:56Speaker 1: and obviously that can change.
- 29:58Speaker 2: But the word now is like he's committed. He just
- 30:01Speaker 2: kind of wants to take his visits.
- 30:02Speaker 4: Now.
- 30:02Speaker 1: Obviously, if you're LSU, you don't want that, but you
- 30:05Speaker 1: kind of can't tell them not to do it. Like
- 30:07Speaker 1: he's gonna the kid's gonna do what he wants to do,
- 30:09Speaker 1: but not overly concerned. But I mean, it's it's something
- 30:12Speaker 1: to keep an eye on, all right, I.
- 30:17Speaker 4: Think you said. I mean we don't. I don't follow
- 30:20Speaker 4: the recruiting as much as I probably should, but seems.
- 30:23Speaker 5: Like the game's change. I mean, all of us in
- 30:25Speaker 5: this business.
- 30:26Speaker 6: It used to be something that was like Tier one
- 30:31Speaker 6: what we followed, and now through guys leaving after a
- 30:34Speaker 6: year transfer portal, it's just not.
- 30:37Speaker 4: It's a little watered down now because they most people
- 30:41Speaker 4: are worried more worried about recruiting the guys that are
- 30:44Speaker 4: already on your roster, right, make and making sure that
- 30:47Speaker 4: they stay there. But I tell you, one of the
- 30:50Speaker 4: trends that I hate in recruiting is the photo shoots
- 30:55Speaker 4: in uniforms. I think it's cringe worthy. I don't know
- 30:59Speaker 4: what it does for anybody, because you see one recruit
- 31:03Speaker 4: it's got ten different uniforms on and he's posting about it.
- 31:08Speaker 4: What good is that doing to anybody? I don't know.
- 31:10Speaker 4: I just think it's cringe worthy. It's an old man take.
- 31:13Speaker 4: I got it like, I just don't see the point.
- 31:16Speaker 4: I don't understand it. I just think it looks dumb, Like.
- 31:20Speaker 5: I don't know this is going to sound old man
- 31:23Speaker 5: as well.
- 31:24Speaker 6: There was something, I am god, there was something about
- 31:29Speaker 6: putting on an LSU uniform for the first time, no doubt.
- 31:35Speaker 5: Once I was an LSU Tiger.
- 31:36Speaker 6: The first time I ever put on the game uniform
- 31:38Speaker 6: was to get ready for Oregon State in two thousand
- 31:41Speaker 6: and four.
- 31:42Speaker 4: It's an incredible feeling. Yeah, And I'm sure like when
- 31:45Speaker 4: they started this trend in the recruiting world, whoever started it,
- 31:50Speaker 4: it was awesome at that point. But if you're recruiting,
- 31:53Speaker 4: you're going on ten different visits, butting on ten different
- 31:55Speaker 4: uniforms just to take a picture for social media.
- 32:01Speaker 6: What are we doing If Huck is getting recruited for
- 32:04Speaker 6: any sport and he goes on a visit and they're like,
- 32:07Speaker 6: all right, uniform time.
- 32:10Speaker 5: You can be like, m actually, let.
- 32:13Speaker 4: Me help you get dressed. But okay, well, I'm not
- 32:19Speaker 4: telling anybody not to do it, because that's the thing
- 32:21Speaker 4: to do.
- 32:22Speaker 6: I just when you're thinking, like I want to I
- 32:24Speaker 6: want to act like all the masters. Man, they'd be
- 32:27Speaker 6: out there hitting the poses up, they'd be doing the
- 32:29Speaker 6: like I just think they.
- 32:31Speaker 5: I just don't think.
- 32:31Speaker 4: It's like I don't maybe maybe, but I get that,
- 32:35Speaker 4: I get the I get why you do it because
- 32:37Speaker 4: it's the thing to do. I just don't like that
- 32:39Speaker 4: it's the thing to do because, like you said, it's special.
- 32:42Speaker 4: When you get to put on that uniform for the
- 32:44Speaker 4: first time, that is an unbelievable feeling. It makes you like,
- 32:49Speaker 4: it's like it's a it's kind of a culmination of
- 32:52Speaker 4: the work you put in to get to that point.
- 32:54Speaker 4: Oh well, it's just watered down. Like if if so
- 32:57Speaker 4: you go play at l s U, those pictures are
- 32:59Speaker 4: going to live forever of you. At a Tennessee uniform.
- 33:03Speaker 5: So you're saying you would not, as Abbo sends me
- 33:06Speaker 5: a reminder here in.
- 33:07Speaker 6: The chat, you would not be the dad of the
- 33:10Speaker 6: Florida recruit that also put on the full uniform in
- 33:14Speaker 6: the picture, saying you wouldn't be.
- 33:16Speaker 4: Too serious a dad.
- 33:19Speaker 2: Yeah, this is about I've never seen what I'll find it.
- 33:23Speaker 5: Okay, this is what parents. This is one of the

- 36:10Speaker 8: I better have to bet right now for the National
- 36:13Speaker 8: Letter uh Letter Winners convention. As a couple of former
- 36:17Speaker 8: players here, I'd assume your l club status.
- 36:19Speaker 7: Is up today.
- 36:20Speaker 4: Boys, probably is.
- 36:25Speaker 8: Actually we've got a confirmation that.
- 36:28Speaker 4: Yeah with Emily uh her first year. Last year, I
- 36:33Speaker 4: jumped in with that lifetime membership.
- 36:34Speaker 5: You did OLK club?
- 36:36Speaker 4: All right?
- 36:36Speaker 5: You want to give me one why we're teammates. I
- 36:40Speaker 5: blocked for you like I kept you safe.
- 36:43Speaker 4: Uh, it's your own l You have your own letter.
- 36:46Speaker 4: I have my letter, you have yours.
- 36:48Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, Well, I am going to eventually get
- 36:52Speaker 5: on that soft guarantee.
- 36:54Speaker 6: There you go, all right, Shay. So we were talking
- 36:58Speaker 6: before you hopped on. There's a couple of guys I
- 37:00Speaker 6: want to ask you about. So Tristian Keys is probably
- 37:03Speaker 6: something that you've had to answer a lot already. He's
- 37:06Speaker 6: going on his official visits. There's videos and pictures of
- 37:09Speaker 6: different uniforms, but the one obviously with him in the
- 37:12Speaker 6: Tennessee uniform going down the orange runway there with a
- 37:16Speaker 6: crowd is certainly making its wave on social media status
- 37:20Speaker 6: with him and his LSU commitment.
- 37:24Speaker 8: Still committed, which as you if people don't know what
- 37:29Speaker 8: you're referencing, the entire Tennessee staff and personnel all did
- 37:32Speaker 8: kind of a tunnel cheer and forum and I think
- 37:35Speaker 8: it kind of brought out in a lot of people.
- 37:37Speaker 8: I'm glad I'm not a college football coach right now,
- 37:40Speaker 8: but that's how you entertain and wine and dine in
- 37:44Speaker 8: the new era of five stars. But look, Tristan Key
- 37:47Speaker 8: is coming out of my alma mater, Hattiesburg High End
- 37:50Speaker 8: phin belve They Lshue recruited so well there and I
- 37:54Speaker 8: guess most people know this, but look Batton Ruge to
- 37:57Speaker 8: Pattisburg and Laurel Oak Group. All that is toloyser than
- 38:01Speaker 8: it is to Startville or Oxford or tuscaloosas. So even
- 38:06Speaker 8: being Mississippi kids, we've seen them have a lot of
- 38:08Speaker 8: success in that area. Recently in Tristan being committed out
- 38:12Speaker 8: of Hattiesburg High, he was always going to make these
- 38:14Speaker 8: visits Miami, Tennessee this past weekend. A and M was
- 38:20Speaker 8: in the mixed two weekends ago, but his final visit
- 38:23Speaker 8: of a month this weekend LSU, and it will be
- 38:25Speaker 8: kind of a who's who of guys on campus with
- 38:29Speaker 8: camp official visits. The Biden splashes this weekend, so a
- 38:34Speaker 8: jam Pig weekend and Keys will be there as the headliner,
- 38:37Speaker 8: one of the headliners.
- 38:39Speaker 4: See what do you think the opening line is for
- 38:42Speaker 4: LSU coaches on recruiting wide receivers? Did they just basically
- 38:45Speaker 4: look at what we've done over the last decade in
- 38:48Speaker 4: wide receivers, because it's if anybody should be able to
- 38:52Speaker 4: recruit wide receivers in the country, it should be LSU.
- 38:57Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 38:58Speaker 8: I think I remember that Tristan and committed and it
- 39:01Speaker 8: was kind of turning that way, but he committed the
- 39:02Speaker 8: day after Jamar Chase when we did this new contract.
- 39:05Speaker 8: So aren't overseeing overlooking what the guys like Jets and
- 39:11Speaker 8: Jamar and obviously into Malik and Brian here recently have
- 39:16Speaker 8: done in the NFL. So uh, really, it's the same day.
- 39:20Speaker 7: It's that pitch.
- 39:20Speaker 8: It's hey, look, always gonna have talent. It's the same
- 39:23Speaker 8: picks they give quarterbacks, which you know, we all lived
- 39:27Speaker 8: through the less arrow. I'll want to nady so but
- 39:31Speaker 8: you know, not knocking you, mat you you're the goat, right,
- 39:34Speaker 8: But no one is looking at these kids look at LSU.
- 39:37Speaker 8: Think about it that when they were fourteen, maybe they
- 39:39Speaker 8: started really knowing they had a chance to play college football. Well,
- 39:43Speaker 8: well she's went two heismans of quarterbacks. Since then, every
- 39:46Speaker 8: receiver is gone on to immediately set these NFL records.
- 39:49Speaker 8: So I think it's kind of most LSU fans are
- 39:53Speaker 8: over thirty are kind of wake me up in my
- 39:56Speaker 8: dreaming type, Like every top quarterback looks at US, so
- 39:59Speaker 8: do all the top receivers. Bo Bentley, a top five
- 40:02Speaker 8: quarterback coming out of Texas, is down to LSU and ouh,
- 40:06Speaker 8: And it's kind of a reverse. It's like not the
- 40:08Speaker 8: Lincoln Riley days anymore. LSU's more of that team. So
- 40:12Speaker 8: I think the pitch to Tristan Keith is the same
- 40:14Speaker 8: as quarterbacks as Look, we've had one of the top
- 40:16Speaker 8: ten offenses, a peen offense in the country year after
- 40:20Speaker 8: year now, and once again that's my odds on Davor
- 40:23Speaker 8: Jeen the Heisman. You'll have quarterbacks and you get to
- 40:25Speaker 8: the ball.
- 40:27Speaker 4: Now, Shay, Sorry, Louise translation of the word goat.
- 40:32Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely means something else when
- 40:35Speaker 6: he's talking to you, Shay. Another recruit that l Hue's
- 40:39Speaker 6: been certainly heavy on for a long time, Lamar Brown,
- 40:43Speaker 6: who's on lshu's campus.
- 40:45Speaker 5: I mean he goes to U High.
- 40:47Speaker 6: There was word that he is not going to have
- 40:49Speaker 6: his official visit at LSU. What's kind of the read there.
- 40:56Speaker 8: I'd be a bit surprised if he doesn't.
- 41:01Speaker 4: Sh o he left us on a cliffhanger.
- 41:05Speaker 5: Oh my gosh. I don't know if he did that
- 41:08Speaker 5: on purpose, but if he did, it's genius.
- 41:12Speaker 3: That was.
- 41:14Speaker 4: Yeah. When you go to that bridge at one ten
- 41:17Speaker 4: on the way to the airport, a little hit a
- 41:18Speaker 4: dead spot right there.
- 41:20Speaker 5: Do you a little bit Oh, well, he's got me
- 41:25Speaker 5: on the edge of my seat.
- 41:27Speaker 6: I'm trying to wonder committee come out lamar and Brown
- 41:31Speaker 6: high school.
- 41:31Speaker 4: High school kid's got you on the edge of your seat.
- 41:34Speaker 6: Well, yeah, like I mean, this is my son's teammate.
- 41:37Speaker 6: My son plays right next to him on the defensive line.
- 41:40Speaker 6: So you know, I'm intrigued by it, and you know,
- 41:43Speaker 6: I don't want to ask my son like, hey, how's
- 41:46Speaker 6: the recruiting going.
- 41:47Speaker 5: Uh, shay, we got you back. He left us on
- 41:48Speaker 5: our cliffhanger there.
- 41:52Speaker 7: My bad.
- 41:52Speaker 8: I thought. I thought I spoiled the start of it,
- 41:55Speaker 8: and then you said give us a cliffhanger. I didn't
- 41:57Speaker 8: realize nobody heard me. I do think vid he ends
- 42:01Speaker 8: up visiting LSU this weekend, that's my guess they have.
- 42:04Speaker 8: It's way too big of a weekend. But Jake, you
- 42:06Speaker 8: said it easy, you high kid. These kids, they I
- 42:09Speaker 8: don't think people outside of Louisiana maybe or even Batteries
- 42:13Speaker 8: get when we say they go to the lab school
- 42:16Speaker 8: like they're playing football next door to the ops building.
- 42:18Speaker 8: They are on campus every day. So when you get
- 42:22Speaker 8: the chance to go to Miami and Texas and A
- 42:26Speaker 8: and M has always been the other team outside of LSU,
- 42:28Speaker 8: You're going to have a blast and seeing something new
- 42:30Speaker 8: for the first time with a red carpet rolled out
- 42:33Speaker 8: for he as a five star, but he ended up
- 42:36Speaker 8: visiting A and M as playing this weekend. Then said hey, look,
- 42:39Speaker 8: I mean not not going to visit LSU and going
- 42:42Speaker 8: to go back to A and him again. And there's
- 42:45Speaker 8: five days in between now and the weekend. I'll be
- 42:47Speaker 8: surprised if that holds up. And if it does, and
- 42:50Speaker 8: then it's quite telling of where he sits with LSU.
- 42:53Speaker 8: And I think LSU would receive that message loud and clear.
- 42:56Speaker 8: But again with between official visits and the splash this
- 43:00Speaker 8: weekend in camp, I uh, I think they hope. Odds
- 43:03Speaker 8: are he'll probably show up.
- 43:07Speaker 4: Say, let's look ahead a little bit. I'm always gonna
- 43:09Speaker 4: talk quarterbacks, ask quarterbacks, and just a real general question
- 43:13Speaker 4: about uh in town guy Elijah Haven Like, any any
- 43:17Speaker 4: new updates on him with going into I know he's
- 43:19Speaker 4: not this coming year, but uh, we kind of gotta
- 43:21Speaker 4: look look ahead with him. Any any updated news, right,
- 43:26Speaker 4: I mean for.
- 43:26Speaker 8: This cycle it's been Bo Bentley. Uh, And then you
- 43:29Speaker 8: look ahead because there's so many guys in next year's class.
- 43:33Speaker 8: Even a couple in Louisiana and a couple that have
- 43:36Speaker 8: offers one out of evangel uh and then obviously went
- 43:39Speaker 8: out have done him here. And I look at Haven,
- 43:42Speaker 8: Michigan's been on him, m Baylor, a couple of schools
- 43:45Speaker 8: in Texas pretty heavily since early on. And then LSU.
- 43:49Speaker 8: I do think LSU takes two quarterbacks. I just get
- 43:52Speaker 8: a feeling that there's too many guys out there and
- 43:54Speaker 8: that had interest that if the dominance fall that way,
- 43:57Speaker 8: they would take two. And and he's firmly in that
- 43:59Speaker 8: big I don't think he's in a rush to make
- 44:01Speaker 8: a decision anytime soon. But the other one I would
- 44:04Speaker 8: watch is another border state kid and coming out of
- 44:07Speaker 8: Texas and Colton dus Meyer, who it's already taller than
- 44:12Speaker 8: not just Garrett but also Dog so he's got the
- 44:15Speaker 8: height and Yank he's a southball, so a little bit
- 44:18Speaker 8: of a mix up there from Garrett. But that's kind
- 44:21Speaker 8: of two names I have Wright, or at least you're
- 44:23Speaker 8: looking at the end state guys that I've offered those
- 44:26Speaker 8: two out of Donomit evangel and then you're looking into
- 44:29Speaker 8: East Texas and saying all right, how can we get
- 44:31Speaker 8: enough Meyer on board?
- 44:33Speaker 6: All right, there he is, Shade Dixon good enough to
- 44:36Speaker 6: join us. While driving to the airport and tell Emily H.
- 44:40Speaker 6: Mattlin's going to play. Pay for my ELK Club membership,
- 44:43Speaker 6: lifetime membership. He's going to pay for it, and I'll
