  Speaker 1: Yeah, CJ Wilson here with Dope Talk. Florida State played
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Central Arkansas this weekend. The league game starts at 3 p.m.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: on ACC Network. I want to get into some things
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: I would like to see from FSU this Saturday going
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: into the Central Arkansas game. It should be a dominant
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: performance by FSU, but there still are a few things
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: I want to see within the dominant performance from the
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: team that we can, I guess, build upon or create
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: opinions about for the rest of the season. Before we
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: get started, got to give a shout out to our
• 0:30

  Speaker 1: the channel if you haven't already. All right, Central Arkansas,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: let's go ahead and get right into it. A few
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: things I want to see or touch on for this game.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: I want to play a complete game, right? A complete game,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: a clean game, no quarter laps like we've seen in
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: past games, that type of deal.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: I can't remember. I could probably count on one hand
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: if that, how many.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Clean and complete games FSU has played under Mike Novell's tenure.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: So again, I would like a clean and complete game
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: from start to finish, come out of focus, stay on
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: top of those guys.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: What's the, Saying that you hear, kill a fly with
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: a sledgehammer.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: I would like FSU to do that and to keep
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: hitting those guys with the sledgehammer throughout four quarters. So, again,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: play a clean, complete game with no type of quarter
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: laps and that type of deal. My second point, and
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: this kind of ties into the first one because if
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: the first one doesn't happen this way, we may not
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: get to see this. We're hoping we'll see it a
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: little bit against Southern Miss. Sorry, New Mexico State. I
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: don't know where the hell I get Southern Miss from.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: First game in the season, New Mexico State was hoping
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: to see this a little bit more, but I wanna
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: see Malachi Marshall. I wanna see what he brings to
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: the table. We heard all the things as far as
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: the arm talent he brings to the table, right? So
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I'd like to see it in live action, let me
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: get live reps. Was the number one quarterback in JUCO,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: led his team to the JUCO National Championship. And just
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the film we saw, that's why a lot of FSU
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: fans are so excited about his potential.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: What he could bring to the table.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: He can make every damn throw based upon what we saw,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: literally every throw. Amazing arm talent, great accuracy, just a
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: dynamic playmaker who I think can change the trajectory in
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: certain areas of a team due to what he brings
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: as being a dynamic pastor. I've been on record in
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: saying that I felt like if he, which I'm not
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: sure what the issue was, but I felt like he
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: would have been the starter for FSU. If he enrolled
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: during spring, was able to go through spring practice, go
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: through getting classes for the winter or the spring semester,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: spring practices, the 15 practices, be there the entirety of the.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Summer and leading into fall camp.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: It would have been no doubt in my mind that
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Malachi Marshall would have been the starting quarterback for FSU.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: But as you guys know, he did get in. He
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: did arrive at the campus over the summer. And within
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: that summer, you're kind of behind the eight ball. But
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: at the same time, he still did a good enough
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: job in fall camp to impress a little bit to
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: get the nod. Well, it's not officially the nod, but
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: quote-unquote the nod of second-string quarterback. We'll see for sure
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: once the game comes about. But I have good authority
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: that Marshall will probably be the second quarterback we see
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: within the game. So, again, with that being said, he
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: was able to do that within that short time period.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I do think from an on-talent standpoint, he does have
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: the best on-talent on the roster, regardless of all the quarterbacks,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Daniels included. So I really would like to see us
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: get to a certain part of the game where we're
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: comfortable enough to put certain guys in. And one guy
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: I really want to watch for is Malachi Marshall. Let's
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: stick with the quarterbacks a little bit. I want to see,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: and this is on Ashton Daniels specifically, I want to
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: see Ashton get the ball out quicker, right? Get the
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: ball out quicker. I believe, I saw a tweet, I
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: forget who posted it, posted this down the third, but
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I think he is, at three seconds, he has the
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: slowest trigger rate in college football. And I say trigger rate,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: snapping the football, dissecting the play, going through your progressions
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: and letting the ball go. He holds the ball entirely
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: too long. I think it's like three seconds before he
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: actually makes a decision to throw the football. Have to
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: be a lot more decisive in our decision-making and more
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: quicker in our.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Reads, right?
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Because, one, it makes the offense line look worse than
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: what it is, right?
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: You take these unnecessary sacks, unnecessary pressures.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: By holding on to the ball too long, going through
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: your progressions way too long and that type of deal.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: It makes your offensive line look worse than what it is.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: And Mike Novell's offense is not a bunch of, you know, progressions, read, hear, read,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: that type of deal, scan the fields. It's more quick
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: reads and that type of stuff. A lot of plays
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: we missed going back to Alabama, SMU, and I guess
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: you could say a little bit of New Mexico State
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: as well from the passing game standpoint. We've left a
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: lot on the field. Our receivers are really good. They
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: can create separation, get open, and make plays. We just
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: have to give those guys the chance to make plays. So, again,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: holding on to the ball is a little bit too long. Well,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: holding on to the ball too long has been an
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: issue thus far at Asheville. like him against a team
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: like Central Arkansas to get the ball out quicker and
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: try to build those realms, muscle memory, this, that, and
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: the third, and carry.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: That for the rest of the season. I would also
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: like Ashton to pull out, right? Pull out. Pull out.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I think James Colvin, former FSU fullback, saying he thinks
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Ashton has about four, five, six kids running around because
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: he refuses and hates to pull out. And he's absolutely right.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: If you look at The film, SMU, look at some
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: of the film against Alabama. They do not respect him
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: as a runner. And I guess right from the start,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: we've seen some of the runs he's done, right? But
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: at the same time, he's capable and it's open. If
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: he just pulls and gets five, six, seven, whatever it
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: may be on that pull, maybe even more, more yardage,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: teams start to respect that, right?
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Teams start to respect that instead of crashing down.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Defensive end slash linebackers crashing down to tackle whoever the
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: running back is in the backfield. If they respect that pull,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: if he makes the team respect the pull out, they
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: will be a lot more slower to make the play
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: on the running back on the back end, on the
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: back side rather, and that just makes the play, the offense,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: more fluid and more open to where you have a
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: threat at the quarterback running the football.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: You have to be honest and with being honest, the
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: running back.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Will be able to do what he do and create
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: the type of plays that we've seen our running backs create, right?
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Chrome on how good they are. If you get those
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: guys in certain situations, they can make players miss. So
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: the more you keep the defense honest, the more opportunity
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: for those plays to happen. And at the same time,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: it gives Ashton the opportunity to make those plays as well, too.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: So last thing that ties into him pulling out, when
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: you make a decision to run, make a decision to run, right?
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: There's so many times where he makes a decision to
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: run when he's still hesitant to actually go and run.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Put your foot down.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Go.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Put your head down. Make the play.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: You're a 225, 230 quarterback. You're bigger than most players
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: on the field as it is. Go ahead and do
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: your thing. If you guys remember the Alabama, the game
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: against Alabama, the touchdown run Daniels had on the sideline.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: I think it was the last touchdown of the game,
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: if I'm not mistaken. Forgive me if I'm wrong.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: But that play specifically got to the sideline, was able
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: to make it athletic, put the tightrope on the sideline,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: and get in for the touchdown. He went.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: He didn't hesitate.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Ashton just went. I'm not saying he's a player. He
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: doesn't have to be a 4'2, 4'3, Lamar Jackson type
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: of guy, but he's a very capable runner when he runs,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: and that play showed it. So, again, once you have
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: an opportunity to run and you decide to run, run.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: That's what I want to see out of Ashton Daniels.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: As you guys know, Sam Singleton got injured against Alabama.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: He's going to be out for an extended period of time,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: so we need more reps at the running back position, right?
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Trey Wiseman.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: I would like to see Trey get a lot of
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: reps going into this game. He's been banged up a
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: little bit in spring, practice, fall, camping, that type of deal.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Got a few reps against New Mexico State. Didn't really
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: play at all against SMU. Got a few reps against Bama.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Now it's mainly because Sam got hurt, like we stated.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: So this is the time, right? You paid a decent
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: amount of money from the NIL standpoint to land Trey
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Wiseman from Texas out of the transfer portal. Now it's
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: time to cash in on those Time to cash in
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: on those investments, right? We need to give him a
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: lot more reps, get him comfortable within this game against
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Central Arkansas, get his feet wet. So going into the season,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: he could be a guy that we could count on.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I do like Trey Wiseman a lot. I think he
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: has the best patience on the team, has the best,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: I guess you could say, he can make guys miss, right?
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: His second-level moves in regards to getting to the linebacker,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: deep safety, whatever it may be, he can make that
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: guy miss easily. So I'm really interested and want to
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: see what Trey Wiseman can bring to the table with
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: more opportunities being allowed to him. Defensively, I want the
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: guys to play more aggressive in coverage. Play more aggressive
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: in your coverage, right? Play more aggressive in your coverage.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: And I've kind of been saying this, and I don't
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: know if it could be a coach thing. I know
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Tony White has these guys playing off in a certain
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: yards and that type of deal due to zone coverage
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and his schemes, right?
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I get it. But at the same time, you can
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: still play a more aggressive.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Type of coverage. Whenever we're in a zone, I would
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: like us to actually zone match, right?
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Zone match.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: When I say zone match, match guys that's in your
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: zone instead of just covering grass and covering space. Match
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: guys that's in your zone. It seems like we're in
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: no man's land for the majority of the time when
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: we're out covering.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Guys and that type of deal. And it's an issue.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: I really don't like that.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: And, of course, third down situations and that type of deal.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Understand situational football and what type of yardage you're getting, right,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: whether it's third and short, third and long, whatever it
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: may be. Understand the sticks and what route combinations you're
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: going to be getting from the receivers and what you
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: need to do as a defensive back to combat that.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Prime example, New Mexico State, I'm talking about a third
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: and five, whatever, where eight, nine yards off and backpedaling.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: SMU game, third and six, we're 11 yards off from backpedaling,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: pretty much giving up the first downs. Be aware of that.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: You have to feel on third and long, man, like
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: third and long. I say this all the time, like
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: the longer the third down conversion is, the more nervous
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: I get as a fan that the opposite team is
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: going to convert because we've given up those ridiculous third
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: downs multiple times over and over, over and over again, right?
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: So... Third and long, we didn't get off the field.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: If you guys remember, and I think this was the
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: play of the game against Alabama, the play of the game.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: This play here literally shifted everything within their favor, in
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: my opinion. If we get this stopped, I believe that
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: game is over. I'm not going to say it's over.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: I believe that game is close to being over, close
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: to sticking a fork in them, and close to making
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: those guys call it a day and actually quitting, right?
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: I really believe that. It was third and 17. Third
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: and 17-14.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: Second quarter right before halftime, third and 17. We get
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: off the field there, get the ball back, possibly score.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: We could take Alabama's period, right? I really believe this
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: is the play of the game. Third and 17, we
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: give up 15 yards on the third and 17. Even
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: though they didn't technically convert, that's a conversion in my book.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: If you give up 15 yards on the third and 17,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: that's a conversion. And rightfully so, with getting X amount
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: of yards on that third and 17, Alabama went for
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: it on fourth and two and converted that fourth and two.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Long story short, that drive there ended up being a
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: touchdown for Alabama, which was the start of their run.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: To come back in the game.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: If we get off the field on third and 17,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: third and 17, right?
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: There's no way in hell they should get 15 on that.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: If we.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Do our job on third down and don't make that
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: fourth down manageable, I really think we win that game.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: So I want to see us play more aggressive coverage.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: understand down and distance, and get off the field on
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: third down, especially third and long situations. When you've got
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: a chance to put a team away, you've got to
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: put a team away. And I really think that part
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: and that part of the game was a chance to
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: put Alabama away, but we failed to do so. Lastly,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: the last thing I want to see, I want to
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: see the young guys get some action, right? Again, that
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: ties back into my second point about Malachi Marshall. I
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: want to speak on him specifically, but overall I do
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: want to see a lot of the young guys we
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: have on the roster get more reps. Jason Lopez is
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: an exciting guy to receive. We want to see him
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: get his feet wet against a team like Central Arkansas.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Amari Thomas, a very talented running back that was committed
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: to South Carolina. I believe to send him in camp
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: in the scrimmages I went to, I really think he's
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: an SEC type of back, big-time player. We want to
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: see him get some reps as well, too. Again, we're
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: down a running back with Sam Singleton, so it could
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: be a point in time where that third or fourth
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: running back could be needed. With Trey Riser pretty much
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: stepping into the second Barbie within the second running back spot.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: So Amare Thomas is a guy I want to see
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: within this game, Central Arkansas, get some reps and that
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: type of deal, as it can be good for FSU
• 14:15
