1:29
But this how I get to wrap up my city life for the week
1:32
is talking to one of our favorites with Kendall A Dooby and and if you
1:37
love kend Adobe, you're on board. If you don't know, do was
1:40
basically the MVP of I think of all sports this year based off of the
1:45
banquet, So I'm excited to hear a little bit more about that. Yeah,
1:48
yeah, let's light lead off with that. Man, talk to us
1:49
about these awards you got, man. I heard that you was walking out
1:53
of it, which is about everything, right. Yeah, I got a
1:55
couple of ward I can't remember which one I get out. I remember I
1:59
got the Defensive Rookie of the Year award, and that was just for you
2:01
know, coming in being a new guy, you know, tripping into the
2:06
team. So that meant a lot to me, to be honest with you,
2:07
I really didn't expect that one. And then I had got two other
2:10
awards and it was just you know, being tough, you know, gritty
2:14
and just you know, give them my own the field. So it felt
2:16
really good to get them award. And Jay, I'm going to read it
2:21
off because like Rookie of the Year, you hear that and you're like,
2:23
oh, that's pretty dope. He's one of the you know, the new
2:27
guys there. And then the defensive Championship strain. So like when I was
2:30
listening to Gabe and Teddy talk about it, they were talking of how like
2:34
this was like you showed just the ability to push through and just fight through.
2:38
And uh, I want you to talk about that one because that has
2:43
a lot to do with you coming in and you know, they're like,
2:46
hey, play corner, hold on to play safety, hold on, play
2:50
cheetah. And so tell us a little bit about how that went, because
2:53
we talked to Harrington too and he kind of got the same situation. So
2:57
I'm interested to kind of hear how both of you guys's story is kind of
3:00
you Yeah, it's actually crazy. So I came in. I was at
3:05
corner. You know, all spring ball, I was at corner. The
3:07
whole summer. I was at corner. And then obviously y'all know justin got
3:12
hurt. I think it was second game s m U. And like I
3:15
said, I didn't practice no Cheetah. I didn't take any reps at Cheetah,
3:20
uh, spring ball in summer, nothing. Nothing. So they came
3:24
to because but had came to me and all the other coaches and they told
3:28
me, you know, we just we want to try you at Cheetah for
3:30
this week. H you know, get in with the gas, you know,
3:34
try to learn the plays and everything like that. So they kind of
3:38
just threw me in there against Cincinnati and then you know, I was studying
3:40
all week for it, and I feel like I played a pretty good game,
3:44
you know, my first time doing it. And then they realized that
3:46
I put a lot on tape, and you know, they just kept growing
3:49
with me after that. So it was actually crazy. I ended up being
3:52
in the Cheeta road. So that's what's ubs and it's O Katie. You
3:57
you had an interesting journey. Of course, you came from Juco up there
4:00
to up and you was a norsement up there in Miami, Oklahoma. Tell
4:04
us about what it was like being there, because I asked that specifically because
4:10
when I saw your tape and saw that you were someone that we were going
4:12
after. I was like, Oh, that dude likes to hit people.
4:15
You probably should get him. How how how did that? What was it
4:19
like being up there in Miami, Oklahoma playing Juco? Uh, to be
4:25
honest, it was weird. This is in the middle of nowhere. You
4:28
know, it ain't nothing to do out there. Uh, first time in
4:31
Oklahoma, so you know that was my first impression of Oklahoma. It's just
4:34
okay, we tumbleweedze all that calvoy all that. So, but yeah,
4:40
it was, you know, it was it was kind of weird being there.
4:43
Uh. I feel like I had a great experience going JUCO. Learned
4:46
a lot in JUCO. I met a lot of good people, a lot
4:49
of good coaches. So, like I said, it was a weird situation,
4:51
but it was definitely a situation that I'm really thankful for. And and
4:57
now this year, you've already experienced the Oklaho home, like the four different
5:00
seasons in like forty eight hours. So so you're like a weathered Oklahoma now
5:06
because you've been through an entire cycle. Yeah, I got it down now,
5:11
I got it. I know how it worked now, you know it's
5:14
when it turned. Yeah, first it was crazy my first time up.
5:16
And I kept getting sick too because I wasn't used to one day cold one
5:21
hundred degrees and it's going back to thirty degrees is crazy. So so the
5:28
other the other one award you got was the Grit Award, and I don't
5:31
think we got to go too far into that because if you're going to come
5:34
to Oklahoma and be a cowboy or a sooner or whatever we are planesman,
5:41
you got to have grit. And so, uh that's the one thing is
5:44
when when we were seeing your name pop up as a as a potential last
5:47
year, that's what Jay and I when we see people we see Champ Sanders,
5:51
you know, talking about like this is the goal line and I promise
5:55
you you will not get through me. We see how you were just laying
5:58
it down on some people, and uh so, I mean we both love
6:01
that. So tell me a little bit about how you Uh when they explained
6:04
the Grit Award, Yeah, was there like a special play or like a
6:08
special circumstance where like you're like, all right, this is where Katie wins
6:11
it. Are you are you asking me if they picked one or you saying
6:15
that I have like a specific one specific play for that. I think you
6:18
have either one. Well we'll do I'd rather hear what you what you thought,
6:23
Like when did you really just look up and you're like, I'm kind
6:26
of bowling out right now, like I'm doing it. That's a good question,
6:30
I would say. The third game. Uh, now, the second
6:35
game, yeah, Tosa, it was a Toasa game. Yeah, and
6:38
you know I got my I got my feet with a little bit, you
6:40
know, got the pick or whatever, and like in my head, you
6:43
know, my head, you know, I'm always I think I'm the big
6:46
I think I'm ana be able to make this play, this play and this
6:47
play. Uh. But yeah, that game kind of like started it for
6:51
me, and then I started building my conferences. And then when they put
6:55
me in a Cheetah, I felt natural in that position because that's what that's
6:59
what I played in. I was in the slot, like most of the
7:01
time I was in the slot, So I felt really comfortable in that position.
7:04
So, you know, games kept going on, you know, I
7:06
keep getting a couple of tackles, and then I feel like when I really
7:11
realized I was bowling was that West Virginia game. Like I feel like I
7:14
was everywhere that game, and you know that's when I was okay, you
7:16
know, I'm doing a little sun, making a little name. So that
7:18
was definitely the game right there. Yeah, because I'm looking at the grades
7:23
and stuff, that was your highest graded game too with the West Virginia when
7:25
you were all over the place up there in your snaps you know, I
7:28
mean you had like fifty something fifty nine snaps, but you had seventy something
7:31
in the TCU game. But yeah, that game, you were all over
7:33
the place. And so I want to talk about that first interception, right
7:36
that felt like the coming out party for you. Do you you agree with
7:41
that? Because when you came out of nowhere on that pick, I was
7:44
just like, oh oh oh, yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
7:46
That's what we're looking for. Did that make you feel like, yep,
7:49
I've arrived. Uh. To be honest, it was a complete opposite for
7:55
me. Like I was happy that I got Yeah, it was. I
7:57
actually was happy I got the pick. You know, I celebrated. But
8:00
for me, I'm always a guy like I want more, Like I just
8:03
want more. I want to do more, you know, contribute more.
8:05
So it was obviously somewhere to start and I was happy I got that pick,
8:09
but it was just like I was more hungry after that. That makes
8:13
sense. Yeah, so thanks good. You're sitting at Juco obviously you're right
8:18
down the street from Norman, So that's that, you know, and it's
8:22
an obvious opportunity if given to you. But like, are you aware that,
8:28
like you're part of this turning of the tide in the defensive backfield for
8:33
our defense, because I mean it's been a while since we've had like dudes
8:37
bawling out in the secondary and now we look at it as a potential strength
8:41
of the entire team. So you know, can you talk a little bit
8:45
about you know, knowing the tradition of Oklahoma but then knowing the traditional defense
8:50
wasn't super strong, So like, did you take that as a challenge.
8:52
It's like, all right, i can go in there and I can make
8:54
a difference or I'm starting to see it with Bowman and with Peyton and all
9:00
the seniors in front of you. Yeah, ask me. So, Yeah,
9:03
I definitely took it as a challenge because the live will say it all
9:07
the time, you know, he would say, you know, in the
9:09
past, Oklahoma DB's weren't known to he wi really say that we want the
9:13
why, Like he would always challenge us to be the wild, like when
9:16
we go out, there were the reasons these picts are happening. These we're
9:20
the reason we're making all these tackles, you know. So he challenged us
9:22
every day to be the wild on the team. And so I feel like
9:26
all of us in the corner room and even the secondary, like everybody,
9:28
you know, the Safeties, Cheetahs, you know, whoever it was,
9:31
we took that as okay. Like you know, bring Vinables wanted to known
9:33
as want the best deepens of coordinators, uh if not the best deeps of
9:37
coordinator in the nation. So having a coach like that and the coaches that
9:39
he brings in around them to instill that into you, we definitely, you
9:43
know, we definitely bought into that. And I feel like buying into that.
9:48
I feel like we made a lot of players to show that we bought
9:50
into what the precinting to be the wise, So we definitely buy in that's
9:54
what's up. So, speaking of which, we got a question from the
9:58
audience. Him asked a question, how long did it take for you to
10:01
truly grasp Bv's defense because we know that it's a very complex defense. And
10:07
the fact that you were able to go in at Cheetah from corner slash nickels
10:11
slash safety. That's that role is the one role. It's like the quarter
10:15
his quarterback quarterback right like your middle livee, your MIC is your quarterback of
10:20
the defense. But the cheating to him is like everything. How hard was
10:22
it grasping not only just the defense itself from corner, especially going into Cheetah.
10:28
Yeah, I come in here to be really honest, it was.
10:31
It was hard. To be honest, it yes, it was hard.
10:35
It was hard to learn the playbook. First couple of weeks, I said,
10:37
the first three weeks, I really like I knew what I was doing,
10:43
but I'm not going to be like I was one hundred percent shore on
10:45
what I was doing. So first three weeks and then it was like I
10:48
got to know where I said, Like the fourth week, it just clicked
10:50
for some reason. It just clicked, like, uh, you know.
10:54
And the thing that helps, like in that defense is a lot of the
10:58
plays are the same, just different rules in a way or like a different
11:03
name. So what you gotta do is you just category like you categorize display
11:07
with display, display mass with display, and you categorize it and if you
11:11
just study it. And I feel like that helped me. Once I learned
11:13
how to do that, it helped me so much more than I was able
11:16
to pull the grassical defense, so I could go from corner to Peter,
11:20
you know, if they need me at safety'all, go to safety. And
11:22
then also just being in the film room and uh, you know goonwell like
11:26
gas like RC and being in the film with roof him. But lie,
11:31
it helped me a lot. So okay, let me add to that real
11:35
quick. So we had Reggie Pearson on before the season started, and I'm
11:39
gonna keep it honest. He was hyping you up. He was like,
11:43
all I need is Kdie to do is get out of his own head,
11:45
and that dude's gonna be a monster out there. Sure enough, Bile,
11:48
you said the third fourth game, you just turned turned into a different person.
11:52
Or you didn't turn to a different person, You just you came out
11:54
right. So when the season started, how did y'all. Let let me
11:58
phrase it this way. Last season the defense was not all that good,
12:03
but you could tell that it was. Everybody was really trying to figure out
12:05
this BB defense this season, y'all moved. The team moved from like in
12:09
the sixties and seventies and advanced metrics to like thirties and tens in a lot
12:15
of the rankings, which is a massive jump. How did you feel about
12:18
coming into this defense this season? How do you feel like y'all performed throughout
12:22
the year? For the most part, I feel like we performed really good.
12:26
Like you said, from you know, the previous year, it was
12:31
obviously a big jump, and I feel like that's just you know, most
12:35
of the reasons like grasping like you said, grasping BB's defense. You know,
12:41
I feel like that was a reason why guys were able to jump,
12:43
because you know, they was their second year into the system, and then
12:46
those guys did a good job of teaching the new guys like me, you
12:48
know, what they wanted, what we needed on defense. So yeah,
12:52
I feel like we performed good as a defense. You know, obviously there's
12:54
plays and games that we wish we would have performed better, But you know,
12:58
for the most part, feel like, uh, we met a big
13:01
jump from the first year BV got there, and I feel like it can
13:05
only go up, you know. It can't get work, get better.
13:07
So that's how I feel about it. Yeah, the foundation is setting with
13:11
all. With all, now you be, like I said, you be
13:13
an old head. Now you're a veteran out there. So me, there's
13:16
a lot of y'all returning next year. I'm excited to see what it looks
13:18
like. Go ahead, yeah, all right, So you are coming into
13:24
this year. Next year, you're going to be one of the old heads
13:26
like you were. We're gonna take a look at this secondary and legitimately,
13:31
from top to bottom, we could have one of the best secondaries in the
13:35
entire nation. Give me somebody who who who is on the team and played
13:39
this year that you're that you're like, watch out for them next year because
13:43
I think they're gonna be there. They're gonna launch. And then somebody coming
13:46
in that you got your eye on. Uh, guys, I've been here.
13:50
I would definitely say Payton bowing, Hey, y'all, gotta y'all got
13:52
a little glimpse in. But he's a bather for real, man, he's
13:56
gonna he's definitely gonna take off. I would say Desia Wagoner. You know,
14:01
he's dog like, you know, he just got to like a gritty
14:03
mindset, like you know, he might not make every play, but he's
14:05
gonna go hard on every play. So I would say those are the two
14:09
guys who've been here, and then guys coming in I would say, I
14:15
would say Eli Bowman, which is Peyton's little brother. He's a bother too.
14:18
He works hard. And then I would also say, right now,
14:26
I think that's the guy I got the most, you know, because he's
14:28
in my group of workouts and stuff like that, so I'm always able to
14:31
see him work. So yeah, he's gonna be a bother. I love
14:33
to hear that. All right, got a question from the audience, I
14:37
like this one who hits the hardest on the defensive side in your opinion?
14:41
The hardest hitter? Right now, I'm must say me, I almost stay
14:46
me like that. Hey, they're gonna get their reasons why they the hardest
14:50
hit or this and that, but I feel like I come with a different
14:52
type of Regression'm gonna save me. But we really got a lot of guys
14:56
who like to hit. We've got a lot of guys who aren't scared of
14:58
it plays. But I'm gonna have to go with me on that. So
15:01
if an my teammates see that, then it's just I make sure to put
15:07
it on social media so you can let them know. He just let y'all
15:09
know I'm the hardest hitter out here. All right, Just keep hygie.
15:15
Reggie was in there. Reggie was in here to thank your Reggie was definitely
15:18
a hit or too. That that all right? So do you do they
15:26
do check downs or are you guys free to do stuff on your own on
15:28
the defense. How do you guys kind of map out what's going to happen,
15:33
especially when it comes to changes. Oh yeah, we definitely got like
15:35
checks to certain stuff or if they line up in this formation or they most
15:39
of the disformation and shift. Uh So there's definitely like a blueprint on what
15:45
we're supposed to do in those situations. But I feel like for the most
15:48
part, Coach V wants you to you know, be you while you're doing
15:52
it, like keeping it in the scheme. But it could be different things
15:54
like if they most of the this side we call it taxi, you know,
15:58
show that you're or you know, show that you're playing off or showing
16:02
that you're playing man just switching it up. So the defense really can't get
16:04
a grasp of what you're trying to do. I like that. I like
16:08
that. In Sooner History we had Brandon Shelby, and I don't know if
16:12
you've got a chance to see him in any tape or whatever, but he
16:18
was a nickel kind of like a blitz specialist and man like he just showed
16:25
up in times so you're like, we just need something big. And then
16:27
he would hit a sack or he would rush the path and he would tip
16:30
the ball, something with chaos would happen, and we saw you do that.
16:34
So you've made it home a few times and I think at one point
16:37
you caused an interceptions. What's the most exciting like thing for you? Is
16:42
it? Is it taking the corner blitz and just seeing like I got him,
16:47
like nobody's gonna stop me. Or is it like seeing the ball coming
16:49
at you and you're like, all I gotta do is catch it and I
16:52
can take off. Have a good question, guys. I feel like getting
16:56
a stack is way, like way better feeling than getting a pig. It
17:00
feels good to get a pick, but you know, just getting a sack,
17:03
like when you feel like you timed up the blitch right and you feel
17:04
like you got home if it's a different type of feeling. So I said,
17:07
that's sack Okay, I can see that. And this season man,
17:12
numbers wise, dude, you kilt it right, like coming in learning a
17:18
whole new scheme and set up. You had like forty something tackles on the
17:21
season you finished with the two interceptions. What five tackles for loss? You
17:26
were all over the place. You were getting hurries, you were getting hits
17:30
on the quarterback. You was doing all of it. So from your Tulsa
17:33
interception, I think you were part of You were part of two iconic interceptions
17:37
this season, right, Not only was it the tip one against TCU that
17:41
let it was it was it TCU that they let the bowman's uh to Billy's
17:47
a touchdown that that was not have one against TCU. The one where Billy
17:52
got a pick was against Kansas. Out of the Kansas one that's right at
17:55
the end of the game. Yeah, that that should have ended the game
17:57
anyway. But the Texas one. So, first, Billy set you up
18:03
for interception? Do you set him up for How did it feel getting that
18:07
pick at red River? Also, how did it feel going into Red River?
18:14
How was that experience. Yeah, so getting the pick it felt like
18:18
a dream. And this is gonna tie into the experience in general, like
18:22
everything that the you know, the players that was that's been there, the
18:26
coaches, the fans wherever, it was, everything that they said that game
18:30
was going to be. It was literally like how it was going to be.
18:33
Like you know, from pulling up to the to the to the stadium,
18:37
like you know, you're gonna have Texas fans on this side screaming as
18:40
you saying whatever, then you gonna have all you fans on this side.
18:42
And then just to defending you itself, the stadium itself, there's only one
18:47
tunnel, so Texas Texas players are walking out while we're walking out. So
18:51
and then just the energy around the game, Like like I said, everything
18:53
that everybody said that it was going to be, it was exactly that.
18:56
Like that game was crazy. And then getting that picking that game, man,
19:00
I had so many people from back home texting my phone. They couldn't
19:03
believe it. I couldn't believe it at first, but it was definitely a
19:06
great balding. Hey, yeah, so you you guys got free you guys
19:11
got free time. What'd you go eat? I didn't eat nothing to ask
19:14
because you got to like you got to like buy tickets or something like that.
19:17
Yeah, the food look good, though, I will say that it
19:18
looked good. I saw a few I saw a few players while out and
19:23
they were getting mobbed, and so I thought, man, it's just tough
19:26
to walk around normal if you're just a dude. So if you pop out
19:30
there, especially after winning, I mean that that'd be that'd be a tough
19:33
to get some You might have just got some free tickets. Yeah, respect
19:37
to the n TA. Crazy when we was able to go to the fair
19:40
after the game, because uh, the Texas fans were actually like respecting us,
19:45
like, you know, good game. I think they're gonna cuss it
19:47
out say this, but they were like, good, y'all played a good
19:48
game this and that. So yeah, it was crazy. Yeah, a
19:52
lot of them, they they they lose their mind on you during the game,
19:56
but afterwards they're typically pretty cool, which is kind of shocking, especially
19:59
with the way that goes. But I know, leading into that, did
20:03
you hear stories about it? Were were you surprised when you actually pulled up
20:07
to the stadium or were you surprised when you heard the stories and then you
20:10
actually got there, it felt like it was a different experience, well different
20:12
setup. I wouldn't say I was surprised because like, in a way kind
20:18
of was all surprised because you know, like people are telling you these stories,
20:22
they are telling you these games like that, and you know you and
20:25
you have never experienced this, so you're like, Okay, I'm gonna take
20:27
it for what it is if that's what they say. So I feel like
20:32
what surprised me more is like a year ago I was in JUCO and now
20:36
I'm playing in one of the biggest, if not the biggest rivalries in college
20:38
football. So I feel like that's what surprised me more. Yeah. So,
20:45
so now you get to be part of the team that ushers uh,
20:48
the University of Oklahoma into the SEC. So SEC obviously the greatest conference,
20:52
most competitive conference top to bottom. You bring the Oklahoma brand in, So
20:59
it kind that ties into the question, like I know that the coach would
21:03
tell you like, hey, we're gonna go one to know, but how
21:07
do you see going into this season, like what mindset changes now going from
21:11
because we'll be honest, like the Big twelve to the SEC. Right,
21:15
you're saying what's the you're saying, what's the mindset going to that? Yeah?
21:18
Like what like, do you guys change anything or is it just get
21:22
better? Is it? Is there some more intensity that you can notice in
21:26
the workouts? Uh? I would say, you know there's gonna be there's
21:32
more intensity. But I feel like there's more intensity because the guys in the
21:36
room we believe in us. And I feel like you don't really change anything
21:40
because in the room, we know what we got, Like, you know,
21:42
going to you know, one of the or the best conference in college
21:45
football, but we know what it takes. You know, somebody let us
21:49
know every day what it takes to get there, and it's all about buying
21:52
in. So I feel like we keep the same identity, you know,
21:56
just tweaks some things, you know, work on what we did wrong last
22:00
year. Uh. Like how I feel is okay, SEC It's the biggest
22:06
conference, So I got to perform at a high level every week and that's
22:08
my mindset. And I feel like all the other guys on the team think
22:11
the same way. So yeah, I don't think we really just changed.
22:14
I don't think we really changed anything. We just you know, keep it
22:17
the main thing, the main thing, and that's get a championship, win
22:19
every game. That's just how that's our mindset. I like that. Keep
22:22
the main thing, the main thing. I like that. So I'm gonna
22:25
hold your feet to the fire real quick on this one. Right, So,
22:27
how long did y'all know that Stutsman and Billy was coming back? He
22:32
said, how do we know? How long did y'all know that they was
22:34
coming back? Or did y'all? Were y'all just as surprised as everybody else.
22:38
Danny, we was all surprised. We was like, yeah, because
22:41
Danny, Danny cleared out his locker, like his locker was cleared out.
22:45
Yeah. They took the picture down, and uh, I had seen I
22:48
had Yeah, I seen Danny one night and I asked him, man,
22:52
Uh he said that he was leaving. So I'm like, Okay, he's
22:53
leaving you know, respect, you know, go do what you do.
22:56
You know, I'm happy for him. And then the video drops and I
23:00
said, and then oh, he's coming back. Like it was kind of
23:03
crazy now with Billy Billy. I remember asking Billy the TCU game and uh,
23:10
you know, I told him, I'm like, man, you got
23:11
a crazy season, bro, like you could you know, you could declary
23:14
right now. I don't know what around you're gonna go, but you're definitely
23:17
gonna get some money, man. So uh, he just wasn't sure though.
23:19
He just kept saying like, uh, you know, I'm a prayer
23:22
about it. You know, I'm not really rushing anything. So when Billy,
23:25
it was still a surprise that Billy came back, but it wasn't as
23:27
as much as a surprise as Danny Becausedanny. We all figured out, well,
23:30
at least the majority of the guys figured out once the video dropped.
23:34
Okay, so it was a surprise and shot for y'all too. Okay,
23:37
Well, I guess this all checks out to all the stories we're hearing that
23:41
he kept changing his mind, So yeah, go with that. So how
23:44
excited were y'all now that you got both of them back? How excited are
23:48
y'all going into this coming season having both of the I guess you could say
23:52
your your your your captains, and and your elderly guys coming back to play
23:56
with y'all? Very excited. Those are two big main pieces of this defense.
24:02
And I feel like going into the conference that we're going into, you
24:04
know, we got to have the leadership that's number one, and then we
24:08
got to have guys that know that they know what they're doing. And I
24:11
feel like this is year three for them with BV, but your two for
24:17
me. So I feel like now we all got chemistry. You know,
24:18
we're all really close, and I feel like it's a big year. Definitely
24:22
a big year for it. Yeah, when we're talking about you know,
24:27
twenty five, twenty six and beyond, guys, one of the things that
24:30
Jay and I have kind of agreed upon is you you got to be somebody
24:34
special to come play the secondary at Oklahoma now. And so now you have
24:38
taken we talked about that a little bit earlier. How you took you know,
24:41
a struggling defense to a strength new guys coming in. What do you
24:48
guys try to do to kind of keep that culture to make sure that,
24:49
like hey, going forward, like this is going to stay a strength at
24:52
Oklahoma from this point on. Like what are you trying to you know,
24:56
pass down to the younger guys, just what it takes, you know,
25:00
the mindset to because I mean, for the most part, everybody will say
25:03
the same thing that Oklahoma's strength has always been the offense. You know,
25:07
the hot, flying offense and the quarterbacks and uh on the deep so side,
25:11
you kind of feel disrespected when people don't feel like you can go and
25:14
win games. So insteading the younger guys, it's a big thing. And
25:18
if you get the biggest thing to get somebody to do what you want them
25:22
to do is to you know, get them to buy in, and not
25:25
only get them to buy in, but give them the reason. It's like,
25:26
okay, like we don't want to be the butt. We want to
25:30
be the wild we want to be the reason this happens. We're going to
25:32
be the reason we can go in there and win a game for us,
25:33
you know if offense is doing this or you know what I'm saying. So
25:37
yeah, I feel like that's what we use. That's what we do to
25:38
the younger guys, and they're really good at buying in. And the guys
25:41
that just came in have been very good at buying there. Like you know
25:45
it don't. I mean, it's a new team, but it feels like
25:47
these guys have been here forever. That's awesome. Oh yeah, I love
25:51
that. I love I love the mindset. Peece. So you've got the
25:53
earlier row leadues. I know you said, Eli is one of the dudes
25:56
that you that's been that's been in your group or whatnot? Looking at other
26:00
positions of the deepest side. Who's jumped out to you all in the spring
26:04
workouts so far? Because I know y'all have been y'all been getting it.
26:07
Like you said, you're sore, You're you're recovering today with these spring workouts.
26:12
Man, who's jumped out to you in the earlier rollees? The young
26:15
pups that that that makes you think, Yeah, outside of Eli, we
26:19
know Eli's and your group, outside of your group, who when you look
26:22
to the side, you're like, oh wow, that dude might be something.
26:26
Are you saying as far as like the freshman or you just saying freshman?
26:30
Yeah, a freshman. Yeah, I want to know about the freshman
26:32
real quick, and we'll talk about the other guys that's been stepping up.
26:36
Uh. I think Jadon and Jackson is that his last name? Yeah,
26:38
j Jackson. Yeah, I'm still getting to know guys, so, but
26:41
yeah, Ja and Jackson. Uh. There was a lot of hype about
26:44
him, Like I didn't even know as far as like what he could do.
26:48
But when I started hearing the coaches, you know, speak highly on
26:51
him. I really start He's in my workout group too, so I started
26:55
to really paying, like pay attention, and his work ethic is crazy.
26:57
I feel like he's definitely gonna be He's gonna be a dude for sure.
27:00
Okay, we're gonna one more for you real quick too. On that.
27:04
I've been hearing some legends around Reggie Powers the other Ohio kid, and talk
27:10
to me, how you feeling about young Reggie the third Reggie's a dog,
27:15
he works hard too, and me from Ohio, so you know, he
27:18
gets a get a lot of praise for me. That's that we do it
27:19
in Ohio. So but not he's a dog, he works hard too.
27:25
I feel like he could definitely come in and make an impact. And uh,
27:29
he's gonna be. He's gonna be a dog for sure. He's gonna
27:30
have a great career. I like that. I like that all right.
27:33
So going into this year again, we were kind of looking at like could
27:38
the defense be like could the secondary be a strength? And then we looked
27:41
at the wide receiver and like, please Jesus, just something work out correctly
27:45
there. You guys were both like, that's two positions that are that obviously
27:51
go up against each other all the time. So you got a little iron
27:53
sharpens iron. Who's a receiver that when you're when you're playing with or when
27:59
you're going up again, that you just it's just a challenge every single time.
28:03
Uh Well, for me, I would I must see I'm gonna get
28:07
both because I've played outside and I played in the slot too. But Drake,
28:11
Drake stoops at the time. He's a definitely guy that made me better.
28:18
Nick Anderson on the outside was you know, he's always a battle going
28:22
against him. But another guy who I feel doesn't get enough praises, uh
28:26
Jadon Gibson, And he's just he has like a certain swag. He has
28:30
a certain swag dam that not a lot of guys have, you know.
28:33
And he's a dog and going against him, going against him because he's gonna
28:37
make a play and he's gonna let you know. And then if you're a
28:38
competitor that just wants to make you go harder, like no, I gotta
28:41
get my one up on him. So it's going back and forth with him,
28:45
for sure. And Drake's working some folks at the senior ball I don't
28:48
know if you've seen some of the videos, that's what he does. That's
28:52
how he practiced, Like Drake is just being is doing what he always does.
28:56
Like he's really that guy for real. So his route running is really
28:59
the pristine where he's shaking you up with is just his head on accident.
29:03
Yeah. Nah, he's not the most athletic god, the fastest god,
29:06
but he's just so technical in Christ and his routs like yeah, he's a
29:10
dog. See now, I love hearing that. I love hearing that.
29:12
Okay, so we got some questions coming in from the people you told you,
29:17
you know, in the green room. Got to ask, so,
29:21
where did you hear about Schmidti? Who told you about Schmidty? You told
29:23
me already, but I want you to tell the audience who told you about
29:26
Schmitty. You got to give us your first story or a story of something
29:30
that went down when you when you met him. Yeah. So I actually
29:33
heard about Simody through Twitter, like all the fans popping about that. That's
29:38
where I found out about all the things people were saying about him. But
29:44
when I really feel like realized, okay, this is what they were talking
29:48
about is it was our first week of summer training and my group was the
29:55
first group. I think we was what seven fifteen, I forget what time
29:57
it was, but he was the first group to work out. And we
30:02
do our workout. We lift our waist first and then we run to the
30:04
grass field and we go do our conditioning. So we're doing our little conditioning,
30:08
you know, running back and forth, running back and forth, and
30:11
you know, Smitty, he's not liking what's going on, and we just
30:15
got back so he in his eyes, we wasn't given the best that we
30:18
could give. So we're running. We're running. We get to our last
30:22
sprint, supposed to be the last one. We run it and we come
30:26
back and we all think he's done. He's like, come on, everybody,
30:27
come up. So we come up and we're thinking we're about to get
30:30
Okay, y'all are done. Now he said, now y'all walk in and
30:33
y'all come back. At twelve or whatever time he was, he made the
30:37
whole group come back, and that's when all he made the whole group come
30:41
back. Yeah, we was on our last one. So that's when I
30:42
was like, okay, this is legit, Like he's a real deal.
30:45
Like whatever he's seen that he didn't like is it was obviously enough to make
30:49
us come back. So we came back that afternoon. We everybody you know,
30:53
realized like, oh yeah, he ain't playing around. So we finished
30:56
the run. Yeah we all learned from that. I learn today. Oh
31:04
my gosh, that's tough, especially, I mean, that's just the mental
31:08
anguish that you have to just go through to be like all right, we
31:11
done and that wasn't too bad, or I'm gonna hurt and then no,
31:17
no, no, no, it's it's it's you guys. It's game over.
31:19
We have to start over. So I don't know if if it was
31:25
been spoken, but we made a joke. Obviously. The buzzwords in the
31:29
off season before the year was competitive depth, and so we started a little
31:34
contest or a little game to wor any time somebody says that you got to
31:37
take a drink. So, uh, when you hear competitive depth in the
31:44
in the media, is do they also kind of preach that on you guys,
31:48
you know, into feeding into the person next to you because we're here
31:52
as a team. Next person up, Like how is that? Because I
31:56
mean that's always one of the biggest things for me, is like how do
31:59
the player handle that because like you want to start and then everybody else could
32:02
come in once you guys have you know, torn it up. But like
32:06
how do you push a guy to be better to potentially maybe potentially take your
32:12
job? But how does that work out? Yeah? So competitive death it's
32:16
a real thing for sure. Like that's a real thing. Real quick,
32:21
there you go, But yeah, it's a real thing. You know.
32:25
I feel like worst is just you know, if all the guys in the
32:30
room want it, Like, there's nobody on this team who doesn't want to
32:32
go on the field. So whether it's a young guy, what if a
32:36
guy who's never played, he wants to get on the field and feed his
32:38
family just as bad as you do. So if he's grinding and you're grinding,
32:45
your mindset is what can I do to get one up on him?
32:46
Not in a bad way, it's just like we all want to be great
32:49
and I want to be greater. So when you get that going back and
32:52
forth from the teammate to teammate, it makes the whole room better because everybody's
32:57
working and giving their maximum effort on every play, every workout. So I
33:02
feel like we got that in this room a lot, and I feel like
33:06
it's making us great. And we go into every workout with the mindset like
33:09
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna miss a day, Like I'm gonna do every
33:12
day the same way, and that's to work hard. So that's a real
33:15
thing though, if you gotta keep pushing each other man, and I love
33:21
that, y'all. The sermon that's preached to everybody is that this team is
33:25
a family, right, and then every time I see a recruit say something
33:29
about the team, they feel like it's a family environment. And as you're
33:31
making mentioned now, it feels like a family environment when you first got there.
33:36
Man who embraced you first and basically took you under their wing and helped
33:39
you get going as a sooner, Uh, I would say Woody Washington,
33:45
but that was Woody was my host on my OV and my unofficial But yeah,
33:50
for me, I'm gonna it takes me a while to warm up to
33:52
people. Like once I warm up to you, then like you know,
33:55
we locked in. And so at first I wasn't really warmed up to anybody
33:59
like I was to call you God, But you know what you like,
34:02
I said, I knew him, so he started bringing me around the guys
34:06
and started to get to know them. And then after that it's like it's
34:08
a true family in this locker room, Like we got so much love for
34:10
each other. Nobody has any issues with anybody else. So now it's definitely
34:15
a true family. Love to hear that, all right. I got a
34:19
couple of questions coming through going into the SEC. What game coming up?
34:23
Get you're the most excited? What's we'll make this a two for four you
34:29
right, what stadium was the coolest stadium you went to this past season?
34:32
And what stadium are you excited about going to our game to play against next
34:37
season? The SEC this season, I would say definitely the Combo, that
34:43
would be number one. Good but yeah, definitely the Combo. But when
34:47
we went to Cincinnati, Cincinnati, I don't know what it was. I
34:50
think that stadium on your whole holds like thirty yeah, nothing like that.
34:57
But for some reason that stadium was rocking, like yes, I don't know
35:00
if it's because they had the little clap thing. I don't know what it
35:02
was, but they had a nice stadium. And then my third, I
35:07
would definitely say playing the Alamodom it was that was a cool experience. Ok,
35:10
yeah, But the the stadium that I'm most excited to go playing too
35:15
is definitely Death Valley. I'm ready to go to Death I can't wait.
35:19
I can't wait for that game. But we got a lot of great games
35:22
this year and a lot of great venues that we want to go to.
35:24
So I'm excited because it's new to everybody. Whether it's your third or fourth
35:29
years, this is all a new experience for all of us, So I'm
35:30
excited for it. That's a good point, yeah, because ain't nobody really
35:35
been to Jordan here to see Auburn before. Ain't nobody been to the Grove,
35:37
which I can't wait to go to that as a road game. I
35:39
heard the Grove is dope. I've been to Death Valley before. Death Valley
35:44
is flames. It is you feel it? Yeah, yeah, you feel
35:47
it when you walk in there, man, like it's the Cotton Bowl.
35:52
Is a different world. And I think because the fact that y'all come down
35:54
the same tunnel, you're literally being busted into the middle of a of the
36:00
freaking fair So it's just weird. It's just like, this is not normal,
36:05
right, you go to Death Valley, man, not only crazy,
36:09
but one hundred and like four thousand folks. They'd be rocking it. So
36:14
yeah, yeah, yeah, I think the only the only guy on the
36:17
team who's been in the SEC Stadium is de Jon Terry and true play Tennessee.
36:22
Yeah. He tells the stories all the time like it's legit, it's
36:27
real. So I'm excited. So so you got to Okay, so you
36:31
said Death Valley. You know I've I've been a big proponent on. You
36:36
know, you've got like Tennessee, who's going to be trotting out a rookie
36:39
or a first year quarterback South Carolina a new quarterback. You know, lsu
36:45
is gonna be trotting in a new quarterback. So you guys got some You
36:47
got some young pups that you guys can feast on. You know, what
36:52
would be the I mean obviously if you want to go to Death Valley,
36:55
but what would be like would it be like a game ceiling pit? Cool
37:00
to be like a game selling sack? What? You know, if if
37:01
you could just sack the quarterback, look up at Death Valley and just give
37:06
them a nice little like what what gets you pumped up about playing in front
37:09
of these big crowds? Uh? Yeah? Definitely making plays and just what
37:15
we call standing on business like and like this year is gonna be something means
37:21
so much more, just because let's be honest, you know, like outside
37:22
of you know, the old U family, the fan base, they don't
37:27
believe that we're gonna come in there and make any noise, like you know
37:29
what I'm saying, Like, they don't believe that. So this year is
37:31
definitely it's always it always means a lot, but this year it's gonna mean
37:35
a lot more. And uh, I'm gonna have to do that now.
37:37
So if I make a player, I'm definitely to Sister Crawd for sure.
37:40
Just I love it. I love it. And you're right because everybody is
37:46
starting up, you know, say walk to the sec. You're gonna learn
37:51
what it's really like. Even though we're not playing Georgian at Alabama every single
37:53
week, right, you know, right, you're gonna play teams in the
37:57
conference that we beat in years past. So that that to me is uh
38:01
gets me excited about what you're gonna look like. So going from there though,
38:10
playing in Cincinnati that game, you you mentioned how the stadium there was
38:15
rocking, and it was it was small going into from forty thousand to one
38:21
hundred thousand. Man, Like, what in your mind? How does that
38:24
make your mind feel that you're gonna be jumping that big when it comes to
38:28
the crowds. That's crazy, to be honest, when you like that.
38:31
Yeah, going from forty thousand to one hundred thousand, that's that's crazy.
38:36
But like I said, I'm excited for it. You know. I feel
38:38
like that's gonna make their games more intense. They say, the SEC is
38:42
that real ball? So I can't wait. Okay, okay, I got
38:46
one, not another one. We got the new coach in, you got
38:49
coach Ali joining Zach Ally joined the staff recently. You've got somebody asking is
38:53
he bringing the juice in practice? Is he crazy? Is he a little
38:59
bread venables? Yeah? Yeah, Like we have skills and drills basically where
39:05
we just go in and we do uh uh position drills and stuff like that.
39:08
I'm with the corners when I do my position drills and stuff like that.
39:10
Sometimes I go with the safety. But actually I was talking to the
39:14
Sign of Color and he's obviously with the linebackers when they do India and he's
39:17
they said, like he's a young dude. So he has so much energy,
39:22
so much juice. He's definitely been bringing that juice for sure. He's
39:24
definitely, Uh, that's spending the image of coach v see there we go.
39:30
That's exactly so when you see when you see somebody who's only two or
39:36
three years older than you as a coach with that much energy, it's got
39:38
to keep you going, right. Definitely, definitely a couple off topic ones
39:45
will jump in real quick, all right. Lastly, Harrington, when just
39:50
Harriton was on there, he's a food critic, right, he's pretty particular
39:52
about his foods. We're gonna ask you, what's your favorite food that you
39:57
have here in Oklahoma that you now enjoying it overall? What's the favorite food
40:00
that you like to eat if you had a choice right now? My favorite
40:07
food? Let me think I got one. I never tried chicken fried stak
40:10
till I came to Oklahoma. I don't even know that was a thing,
40:13
to be honest with a word. Yeah, I from Ohio, that's true,
40:16
the South. Yeah, I ain't know nothing about that. But when
40:20
I tried it for the first time, it was it was good. And
40:22
then what you said the second question was from home, like what what's something
40:27
that you would love to have here to eat? If you if you got
40:31
a choice from from how from home? What would you bring here to eat?
40:35
Oh? We got these things that's called their chips back home. I
40:38
don't know if you know about their probably so you probably don't know about it.
40:40
But they're called gripos and they're like these barbecue chips and they're like soft
40:45
and they're they're good, and uh, i'll be I asked my mom to
40:50
send me something, but she never had, so it would definitely be it
40:53
would definitely be the the grip. Okay, I like that. I like
40:59
that all right. So being from Ohio and I know that you're not from
41:02
Cincy, but it's Skyline chili, really chili. I've never tried it,
41:07
to be honest. Yeah, I heard. I heard it's big up there,
41:10
especially Cincinnati's big. But I've never tried it. But everybody says that
41:14
it's good. But I need to try it, you know, being from
41:16
hardly need to, but I've never got the chance to. It's a sauce.
41:20
I'm standing on it. I'm standing on that business. It's a sauce.
41:22
It's not chili. It's a sauce. You tried it? Oh yeah,
41:27
yeah, yeah, no, no, no, I got family to
41:30
live up I used to live up there in cincinnat Mason and uh and so
41:35
we would you know. So I've been up there a few times. In
41:37
the first time I had it, I didn't know anything. I just thought
41:39
I was eating chili and spaghetti and I took a bite and I was like,
41:44
what in the elf is going on here? Because it was so sweet
41:46
because of the cinnamon. So yeah, yea though, that's funny, that's
41:52
funny. All right, So we got somebody when I got another question for
41:54
you in here, which I really liked. All right, what's the biggest
41:59
thing you learn when you was playing at Aneo? And food place? Where
42:02
did you eat? If there was a spot there that you would go to
42:05
on a regular basis the biggest team that I learned playing Uh, I would
42:10
say, uh, chicken fried steak. Yeah. As far as the food
42:19
spot, there was a little food truck in Miama and it was like it
42:22
was like haibachi food and it was actually really good. We used to go
42:25
there all the time. Yeah, it was good. But the biggest thing
42:29
that I learned that Neo would probably just to work hard and grind you know,
42:35
that juke of life is real. And I feel like that there was
42:38
a lot of things that tested my character, but I feel like it made
42:42
me a stronger man, especially because I was miles and miles and hours away
42:45
from home. You know, Mom couldn't just come and save me, you
42:49
know what I'm saying. So I feel like that's definitely what I learned,
42:52
is to, you know, push through adversity whenever it hits so. Right,
42:59
that's a good one. That's good. Got another one here, Uh,
43:04
Brian, I'm done with you. Uh did anybody convince you to do
43:07
some cow tipping while you was up there in Miami or if you heard a
43:10
cow tip? Yeah, I heard of it. If somebody would have convinced
43:15
me, will be honest, I would definitely have. I would never do
43:16
nothing like that. Those they're too big. I would never do that.
43:22
Yeah. Man, they got a little bit too much weight on them.
43:24
Man, that's not something that you want to try to bench press, right.
43:27
I mean, I know you probably can hit you in a quarter with
43:29
no problem, but that, but those things are six and seven. That's
43:31
a My back hurts thinking about it, all right, what's getting you hype
43:36
on game day? What music is in your headphones that's getting you pumped up
43:39
prepare for the game. I listened to NBA Young Boy, Okay, little
43:45
Baby, I'm from I'm from So we listened to a lot of Detroit music
43:52
on how Michigan's right there. So I have Detroit music in my ear,
43:55
but sometimes I like little soft music, you know, just give me relaxed
44:00
it up. I definitely switch it up. Okay, okay, all right,
44:04
give me. I don't know if you've got any season goals, but
44:07
do you have any any personal goals for you specifically for this coming season?
44:14
Definitely? Definitely my goal is to be first team All Conference, first team
44:19
All American. Like I said, really big goals for myself, but in
44:22
my eyes, I can accomplish all of them. So definitely, uh,
44:25
first team All American. And then this goals. You know that me and
44:30
my teammates, you know that we have a great season that to go to
44:34
accomplish what we set, all the goals that we set. So I feel
44:37
like if the whole room's happy and we're doing our thing, you know,
44:40
that would be the bigges accomplishments to go in there and make some noise and
44:45
you know, showing what old your foot goal is about. I like that.
44:49
I like that, So okay, I gotta ask this. I mean,
44:51
I don't want to throw no shade that nobody don't. But was the
44:53
fields really that bad at b y Uh? They were? I'm sorry,
45:00
but they were terrible. They were terrible because I usually I usually wear these
45:04
red cleats, uh for every game that we play, and UH for that
45:08
game they told us, they told us all we can practice that they're going
45:12
to give us these other cleats with studs on the bottom of them that like
45:15
can screw in on the bottom. So we get to BYU and we go
45:20
out to the field and I'm in my red cleats. I'm like, nah,
45:22
like I like the way the red cleats look like. I'm not wearing
45:24
the other cleats. So I go out there and we're doing warm ups and
45:28
I'm flipping everywhere and sliding. It was just it was bad. So I
45:31
went back in changed my cleats and with the studs the whole game. But
45:36
yeah, I'm sorry, BYU, but the field, the field was terrible.
45:38
Field was terrible. Yeah. That's all I've heard is I've heard about
45:45
BYU's field is just off of them in Iowa State. It's like as the
45:47
season gets progressive, it's just the field gets worse and worse. It was
45:51
a great environment. It was a great environment. And then the scenery you
45:53
know with the mountains. Yeah, it was beautiful to be in Utah.
45:58
That was my first time in Utah, and then my birthday was the day
46:00
before that game, so so yeah, it was it was nice to be
46:05
able to go out there. Definitely had a great experience and the fans were
46:07
nice and it was a great experience though, but that field was just not
46:12
it. That wasn't it at all, Not at all. Oh man,
46:19
cool? All right, So what's give me a prediction for for your you
46:25
guys as a team something you don't have to do a record or anything like
46:29
that, but give me a prediction something that you guys will accomplish as a
46:31
team this year. Uh. I would say on the defensive side, I
46:37
definitely feel like we're going to lead a few categories in the nation whatever it
46:42
is. You know, it might be picks, uh, you know,
46:44
picks, PBUs. I feel like we're definitely going to get better on defense,
46:47
and then I feel like offense, I feel like they're gonna do their
46:52
thing and take care of business. And you know, I predict, I
46:54
just predict this to have a good season. In general. I like that.
46:58
I like that I got a good quest. Came in here and this
47:00
is what I was thinking about. Is coach be intense? Like when the
47:06
first impression when you first met him, how did that go? Well,
47:09
the first impression is smooth because we're not out of like, we're not on
47:13
the field yet, so he's very nice. But when it's time to go
47:16
to work, I don't know what he does, but he flips the switch.
47:19
And once he flips that switch, he's definitely intense. But you know
47:22
he's coming from a good place. You know, anything that he might say,
47:25
I practice or you let you, you know, he doesn't mean it.
47:28
He just wants you to be a great player. And not even it
47:30
is a great player. He wants you to be a good man, so
47:32
a great man. So when he puts that fire on you, it's not
47:36
just him putting the fire on you. Uh, and practice is for football.
47:39
He's putting pressure on you and to see how you're gonna respond as a
47:43
man. So yeah, the first impression is great, But when he gets
47:45
out on that field. You're gonna feel the man, no way, for
47:47
sure. That's what I'm talking about. All right. So Reggie's dad is
47:53
in Hereggie Junior. Reggie's dad is in here, and he said that your
47:58
little brother is out here getting you got to pick six against uh Reggie this
48:04
past year. So talk to you about your little brother. Man. We're
48:07
trying to bring him down to Norman. What's going on? We get another
48:10
U. Yeah, yeah, I'm trying to When the camp start in the
48:15
summertime, I'm definitely gonna have my little brother come out here. But yeah,
48:19
my little my little brother. He's a dog. He's a dog.
48:22
Yeah, that's really like. He's a dog. And I hope that his
48:27
recruitment hasn't really tooken off yet, but you know, he's staying down,
48:30
staying patient, and hopefully it goes up soon. But yeah, he did
48:32
have a he did have a pick against Centeville, and I was excited to
48:35
see that play. Nice. Nice, Okay, let me see, I
48:42
know We've got a couple more questions in here. That's gonna be good,
48:45
all right. Who's the biggest prankster on the team, Who's the one that
48:47
that you gotta watch out for they be doing stuff. Uh, the somber
48:52
color you definitely one. Or yeah, Denny Stetsman, She's definitely one.
48:58
You gotta watch out for him. Those are like the biggest two that I
49:02
can say right now. So yeah, they definitely gets you. You gotta
49:06
watch up with them. When you see Danny and Kannick tweet stuff out,
49:12
they're doing their crazy stuff. Do you doesn't even like phase you anymore.
49:15
You're just like, yep, she said, does it phase me? Yeah,
49:20
it doesn't even It doesn't even surprise you anymore. You're just like,
49:22
of course in the middle of the snow. Yeah, No, that's just
49:25
them being At first, I'm like, they're doing all these things. I
49:29
don't really know them like that, so I'm like, yeah, they're crazy,
49:31
but like but now it's like it's normal. They're just being them having
49:35
fun, so I respect it. I like that. I like that.
49:39
All right. I got a couple more questions. We're gonna let you enjoy
49:43
the ratio eating you need to recover. I know that body is hurting.
49:45
Wings or burgers, Which one do you prefer? Wings? Definitely? I
49:50
love wings, flats or drums. It depends on my moods. Sometimes I
49:55
want strictly flats and then sometimes I want both. So yeah, of my
50:00
move though, So what you're telling me is is not a moment that you
50:02
want only drums? Yeah, not never, So it's either both a flat.
50:09
So it sounds like flast is winning this one. If they got that.
50:14
Okay, that's good. That's good. I'm gonna go get I'm gonna
50:19
go get some wings tomorrow now I'm hungry. Uh No, man, hey,
