- 2:49yeah I don't know who needs more of a recovery.
- 2:51You were the 4x4 or 4x4, pay their fine.
- 2:55Don't don't jump the gun. They're fine.
- 3:00Well, well, let's go ahead and just attack that that elephant
- 3:05in the room. But if I bite, that's how we get
- 3:08it done, right? Well, if we're going, track is
- 3:11back first, I have to start with a retraction.
- 3:15Oh, during heartbeat during rapid fire.
- 3:19Last week, I was put on the spot and asked to pretend like I was
- 3:24the real, a coach, a very Petty question and it can give you
- 3:30know, and Snapshot of my men's and women's 4 by 1.
- 3:35And if the audience will remember, the men's team that I
- 3:39laid out in order was Michael Norman to Fred Carly.
- 3:48Now, I'm going to put two grand Holloway and to know a Lyles,
- 3:52and I'm here to retract that statement because USA Track &
- 3:57Field. Let me make this very, very
- 3:59simple. Retro leave Flamingo on three
- 4:03and let the baby run anchor and figure the rest of it out.
- 4:09Just leave those two alone and you are more than halfway to a
- 4:15world record. Don't screw it up.
- 4:20Oh, and by the way, the handoffs already work, and they train
- 4:24together. Just be smart about this.
- 4:26It's a lot easier. Ding.
- 4:31It's with the retraction. I mean that was right.
- 4:55Okay. Listen what what you sh EF does
- 4:59actually need to learn from this weekend, right?
- 5:01Is The right for win. It's just that simple, it
- 5:11doesn't have to be, it doesn't have to be the four fastest
- 5:15necessarily but the right for will definitely win.
- 5:22So, since we're being petty, I know what that was about.
- 5:27I mean, Lamar four minutes ain't fast witness the practice
- 5:33session that was all about 25 minutes to put the relay
- 5:36together. Maybe we'll start in five
- 5:40minutes. I don't know.
- 5:40But like the total thing, but it's okay.
- 5:43So let's just call it 30 minutes and it definitely wasn't.
- 5:46But let's call it 30 minutes. Yeah.
- 5:48You know, like it was just four guys and me and no conversations
- 5:54and, you know, some small minor adjustments and it works that
- 5:59it's not that hard, wait, time out, I need, I need, I need
- 6:03American understand something. What you call the minor
- 6:06adjustment Is like a six-week like real a project for USA
- 6:11Track and Field because the minor adjustment was look, the
- 6:15minor adjustment was Ariane shouldn't be on two after like
- 6:20150 percent sort of passion, I have.
- 6:23No, I don't like that one sends. It sends Ariane to Grant work
- 6:28that out. Ronnie.
- 6:30You come over here. All right, now we have 26
- 6:34minutes left in our 30 minutes. Go be great.
- 6:38Bob's your uncle. You listen, if you know what
- 6:41you're looking at it only takes one or two reps to look at it
- 6:45and be like, oh yeah now move. So just leave it alone.
- 6:54I mean so know that I think it was a great relay they were
- 6:59hyped you know, Tumbleweed had a very good team but Marvin Bracy
- 7:03and the grass. And I'm not sure who the third
- 7:05leg is. I I know him but I don't I can't
- 7:08pronounce his name, he's a Chinese Sprinter.
- 7:12Yeah, Brunel was younger. So you know they they had a very
- 7:15good team and it was great race. It was a great way to pop off
- 7:18the weekend for me and they did that.
- 7:22I think North County and run 40 to 80 something and the relay on
- 7:27the women's side and the meat just went crazy after that.
- 7:29But I think, well, let's pop off with what popped off the weekend
- 7:32was women's 200. And no flavor of feeling.
- 7:36I mean, it's like, you know, being in this field being in the
- 7:39state, right? And it's like the gun goes off.
- 7:41And she breaks the Staggering like five steps.
- 7:43And I'm like, whoa, you know, it's not like she's breaking a
- 7:46staggering, Rosa running 24 24 seconds and she just kept
- 7:50rolling and, you know, No, you can run two very fast 200 on our
- 7:56track, especially when the winds, right?
- 7:57And the wind was. Right.
- 7:58You know, that now both Collegiate record in the 200 for
- 8:02set one on the perceiver track last, I love watching, there's a
- 8:07fun fact for you. What is mind-boggling is how
- 8:13little this country is talking about that.
- 8:17Yes, mind-boggling to me. Literally not at all mean, it's
- 8:25got it all. There were attempts, let's be
- 8:27fair. It's not like the coach's
- 8:29Association. Didn't tweet it out.
- 8:31It's not like it didn't go out in social media it did but it
- 8:35has no traction and you know, high-level minded.
- 8:40Track people us included have been having this debate.
- 8:46There's a there's a pocket of people out there that are
- 8:50calling it. You know, either.
- 8:52Outright or Shadow racism. I'm not on that page, it's
- 8:58nationalism at the end of the day Miss Ophelia is not an
- 9:01American athlete and therefore the Americans don't really care
- 9:06to talk about it that much. It sucks.
- 9:08Because listen, that's the first time, a woman's been under 22
- 9:11seconds in Collegiate history and she deserves listen to what
- 9:15you're saying. She's not the first one to go
- 9:20under in the Collegiate history, she's gone.
- 9:22Go under two, 21 seconds, 22 seconds, and during the regular
- 9:26season. Because both naevia battle, any
- 9:31young lady from Alabama, did it last year?
- 10:11Right? I don't care if she's an alien
- 10:13with three heads 2196 is a very, very special and incredible
- 10:17effort, it should be treated as such and then them just tweeting
- 10:21it once or whatever. No I mean listen I want I had
- 10:27the this is not a flex, this is just the truth.
- 10:30I had the pleasure of standing on the track to watch the
- 10:33women's 200 in between area night and Noah Lyles and
- 10:39Flamingo. And three steps into the race.
- 10:43All three of the young'uns say, whoa.
- 10:50How special the Run was cuz you got three people who really know
- 10:53what fast looks like? Who were impressed before?
- 10:57She got off the turn. Yes.
- 10:59And and look Do I think Abby Steiner is probably going to
- 11:04clap back and get the Collegiate record back.
- 11:06Yeah I do think that I don't necessarily think she's gonna
- 11:08ask, I don't necessarily think she's going to own it, right.
- 11:12I think those two are going to battle and not trying to be
- 11:15funny. I think a Navy a battle is also
- 11:17going to be involved in that battle but it is wild to me how
- 11:24little it was talked about on has no it has no traction.
- 11:29Nobody and and and you know of course, What what people will
- 11:33say was well it got overshadowed by the 4x4 and I call BS on that
- 11:38because that was a whole 24 hours late.
- 11:41Now I was like 26 hours later. Yeah right like she should have
- 11:46owned the headlines in the internet the first night.
- 11:49The next morning when we came to the track, everybody should have
- 11:52been talking about the internet Buzz that that favor got from
- 11:56her 200 from the night before and nobody was talking about it
- 12:00and it might have stopped little People myself included, we're
- 12:02talking about the fact that nobody was talking about because
- 12:05I know that's that's what the conversation was was, was the
- 12:07fact that nobody was supposed to know about it, all right?
- 12:10It's it's, it's one of those moments in our sport where
- 12:16there's a lost opportunity, right?
- 12:18Because in that moment, in that moment, I mean, everybody should
- 12:23have been making a big deal about it.
- 12:25That could it should have been on ESPN.
- 12:28It should have been kicked up by World Athletics.
- 12:31It, You know, there's so many things that I was actually
- 12:34surprised that world Athletics didn't give it the pub, it
- 12:39deserved because she is an international athlete, right?
- 12:43So I'm disappointed that it, that it didn't have more
- 12:48traction, but I'll say this, Miss Ophelia dropping that Mark
- 12:54where she did and when she did might have just thrusted the
- 12:58women's 200 into the top spot, Pot for best race of the year at
- 13:04Nationals because they're, it's not indoors.
- 13:07Yeah. The lanes don't matter anymore.
- 13:10And we all assumed that we were going to get an epic battle
- 13:14between Steiner and miss battle. Well, now, the Collegiate record
- 13:20holder, then thrown down a marker and made a statement.
- 13:23So now it's a three-way race in it.
- 13:25I mean, honestly we're going to get 321 second races, I think.
- 13:30Head head was not right. I receive a favor it.
- 13:35No I can't say that Abby's the favorite, okay?
- 13:39Okay, yeah, well we will quit. So here's what I'm going to tell
- 13:43you. First of all, I told sir Lucius
- 13:45that I thought she was going to be not me I saw soldiers.
- 13:48I told them our I've got that. Favorite was gonna break it
- 13:51before. Abby.
- 13:52Did I told him that he did he did he said those words.
- 13:56So I'm going to tell all of you this you do.
- 13:59Do a couple things going to pray for a very good weather in three
- 14:03weeks in Oxford, Mississippi, hmm, and if you are in the
- 14:08neighborhood, you might want to stop by for that one.
- 14:11Because that's the first time they will, they will lock horns
- 14:14horns, okay? Yeah.
- 14:17And it's going to be special because he, I can see I called
- 14:20Lemar after the hundred because everybody's talking about 1092,
- 14:24which was spectacular, but nobody noticed that the other
- 14:26one ran 11 flat, right? Am I talked about that?
- 14:31You know and you know I get me wrong though.
- 14:35They're doing some very special things with Abby and Lexington
- 14:38Kentucky but no people want faster than 100 200 every year
- 14:42in Baton Rouge but new, right? So you get you got to give
- 14:46dinner shaver and his crew. They are going to have a ready.
- 14:49So I'm looking forward to it. It's going to be quite the show.
- 14:53No, but I mean they look so congrats to favor.
- 14:56Aye, it's shame on. D, for not talking about it more
- 15:01because it's not, it's not just, you know, whether it be
- 15:04Facebook, or Twitter or Instagram or whatever, you know,
- 15:08the the people that are always out there making predictions,
- 15:11none of them are talking about, you know, it's not, it's not
- 15:14just the media, paid media, I'll call him.
- 15:18It's just the talking heads up there.
- 15:20The track people that are always got something to say.
- 15:22They're not talking about in here in shame on them shame or
- 15:26not trying to be funny. That's that's why we that's why
- 15:29On the show, right? Everybody expects us to not miss
- 15:32anything. Just not tell me.
- 15:35Find my true. I'd let you you don't you don't
- 15:37miss 2196, I'm sorry Mom. No, I agree.
- 15:40You know, we wasn't gonna miss it but anyway, I mean like, you
- 15:45know, that that kind of got the ball rolling.
- 15:47I mean, you know, great me at all.
- 15:49I'm going to give a shout out to a guy.
- 15:51I work with mr. Quincy Hall dropper, 48 5 before
- 15:54the hurdles. You know, we're working really
- 15:57hard and we were starting to iron out some things and but as
- 16:01we know forty eight five and four dollars in fast anymore.
- 16:03So Still got a lot of work to do, but you know what, a great
- 16:08way to start the season. I must say that it's not fast
- 16:12anymore, but for that dude and if you study his history and
- 16:16know from whence he came and all the issues that he's been having
- 16:19just him getting himself together to put that race
- 16:21together as an opener is a big deal because it really big deal.
- 16:26I'm just going to say this like there were so many marks and
- 16:31we're going to deal we're going to dive into it, right?
- 16:33But there was are so many marks from Tom Jones that were not
- 16:37ballyhooed that were truly special because of the
- 16:41Ridiculousness that happened at the meat that like if you
- 16:45weren't at the meet you just you missed crazy things like 11,
- 16:49flat women's hundred, yes I Collegian by the NCAA Champion
- 16:53North Carolina, Alyssa Jefferson.
- 17:04It was Levin flat into a very slight head wind.
- 17:07Yes, the whisper, but it was the way she did.
- 17:11It. No was very controlled.
- 17:13It was very technically, right. You know?
- 17:15And it was nice to watch and hey, the performance of the
- 17:20hundred for me was Shania. College went tonight, right?
- 17:23Hey, that's a Resurgence for you and see and and I think Clyde my
- 17:33text about this, This me, I'll he's real, he's a problem.
- 17:36Folks, she's a huge. And somebody was asking me what
- 17:54I thought about the women's hurdles and I left Nia Ollie off
- 17:58of the podium. And of course you want them near
- 18:06Ali. She may never break the world
- 18:10record though. I think she could nyali is just
- 18:14one of these just intensely competitive psychotic people
- 18:19that I'm telling you. I don't know how and I don't
- 18:23care what like Nia. These gonna make the team.
- 18:27And if you give her this much of an open and she's going to fuck
- 18:30around and win the World Championship again, just because
- 18:34that's what Nia does. Like it used to be Dawn.
- 18:38Who was always going to find a way on the team and you better
- 18:41not let Don be near the Finish Line in contention because he's
- 18:44gonna figure it out. Nia is that way.
- 18:48But way more psychotic like, in a positive way like me as a
- 18:51monster and she's absolutely back.
- 18:56Fresh off, whatever. Baby.
- 18:57Number three and step it out there.
- 18:59Running 12/5. People and correct me if I'm
- 19:04wrong, she doesn't even need to be ready at the trials, because
- 19:06she is the defending champ. Yes, exactly.
- 19:10So it's a whole problem and I'm telling you right now, whatever
- 19:15your predictions about worlds, and Eugene are a better include
- 19:18nyali on the podium because there's no way she's not going
- 19:22to be there. All right, I put it like this.
- 19:26And and answer Lucius has been through it.
- 19:30Lamar you've been through a cloud.
- 19:31I'm sure you've been through it, but in the professional ranks,
- 19:36right coming off your third kid. Right?
- 19:41Yeah. You know what the feel is going
- 19:43to be right? And you're going oh hell yeah.
- 19:51And that was the beauty of so Ruiz and Mike Weir we see
- 19:58Camacho Quinn. Yes.
- 19:59And then Rana Rana of calls and goes hey can you enter Nia?
- 20:05You know I left deals with. She didn't get it I didn't left
- 20:08out something like sure, right. So then why not
- 20:44Still the coldest game on the planet.
- 20:46It still is yes. And since last year Camacho
- 20:51Quinn has literally dismantled everyone in the race, everybody.
- 20:55Yep, but not me, Ali. Right in her own right?
- 21:01Right? In her opener.
- 21:03Off the third kid, didn't dismantle me Ali.
- 21:06I'm, I'm listen, I'm stuck. I'm telling y'all, she's gonna
- 21:10be right there. And then and then on the
- 21:14Collegiate side he goes 12-8 1261 to 1216 three.
- 21:19All right. Right?
- 21:20Wow. Wow.
- 21:22Another just an outstanding race crazy.
- 21:25I mean, I mean, the beauty of that race was like, I think
- 21:30coming into the meat, like five of the girls Five of the women
- 21:35that were in the NCAA indoor final work in that race, right?
- 21:40And it was just, it was a great competition, they lined up and
- 21:43they got it done. If I did the best part of that
- 21:46race was like, the wind had been blowing in the opposite
- 21:49direction all day long. And literally, as they put the
- 21:52hurdles on the track, it changed, it changed.
- 21:56And so, I'm standing there and I look at dinner, shaver and I go,
- 22:02we gotta change it. Don't we go?
- 22:03Those, we got to we can't we can't make the run into this
- 22:05wind and literally we I just turned around and go flip it and
- 22:09everybody. So at one point in time there
- 22:12was Dennis shaver rain, a writer at myself.
- 22:15All working on the same row are hurdles one rain or water goes
- 22:19this has to be the highest-paid hurdle crew in history of man
- 22:24that's funny but we got it done the race started on time and
- 22:30they rocked it was wonderful. Let that be a lesson to all meet
- 22:35directors and folks. Hmm, it just takes the will to
- 22:40do it and it's what you're supposed to do.
- 22:44And I mean everybody chipped in, you know, I'm not sure if four
- 22:49minutes were you out there. Yes, sir, we got me.
- 22:53I know I saw you but when it combines, by the time I saw you,
- 22:56we were all walking towards their, you know?
- 22:58So but he was there. What I mean, is I mean lineage G
- 23:01from from Clemson? Are not just paper.
- 23:05Yeah, what I, what I want people to understand, right?
- 23:07It's like, listen, a lot of times high level head coach that
- 23:13power 5 to become presidential, right?
- 23:16They are hands off on a lot of things and I want, I know he's
- 23:20my guy. I know I'm going to sound like a
- 23:22homer, but I want everybody understands after like four
- 23:26events. So lucious says, to me, I got to
- 23:31get all my starter and my officials because we're a whole
- 23:35minute behind a fight. No, no.
- 23:39These are exact his exact words. He said we were five minutes out
- 23:41minutes behind, but we got them back on track and now they're
- 23:44going backwards again. That is attention to detail that
- 23:50people need to understand about putting on track meets like this
- 23:56is what I want everybody to understand, right?
- 23:59It is very difficult to put on a track meet it is damn near
- 24:02impossible to coach some of the people that sir Lucius has
- 24:05coached this year to do both simultaneously.
- 24:10Is next-level stuff folks. And I want people to start to
- 24:16not just be fans of the sport but to start to learn about your
- 24:20craft, right? Learn how long hundred meter
- 24:25Heats, an 800-meter Heats, a 1500 M heat stake.
- 24:27So when you put together a schedule, there's some science
- 24:30to it and there's some you know, you know and you know who to
- 24:34push and prod to make sure that everybody gets what they get.
- 24:39It look, here's small nuances. That people weren't paying
- 24:42attention to. There were some events where the
- 24:45pros went before the collegians and there were some events for
- 24:48the collegians went, before the pros.
- 24:49Every single one of those events was done properly.
- 24:55People people need to pay attention.
- 24:58This stuff doesn't happen by accident.
- 25:02Oh man. So we're not swinging away from
- 25:06Gainesville until we address the pure ignorance that is to 5853.
- 25:15I have I have the list, the national list pulled up in front
- 25:19of me and I'm just going to tell you it looks disrespectful on
- 25:21the top then it doesn't it looks funny.
- 25:26Okay sir. The floor is absolutely yours
- 25:33will wait. Before we give him the floor, I
- 25:34just want to give a small backstory The Adidas crew - TV
- 25:40and the Florida Gators crew have been jaw-jacking at each other
- 25:44since September. Yes.
- 25:47Right. So we were just all privy to
- 25:49like a Collegiate programming War.
- 26:07In all of your 302s that weren't in the picture like that, got
- 26:11disrespected on all the internet, you know, versions of
- 26:15the video because they weren't in the screen and they ran 30 to
- 26:20yes, you got caught in crossfire of, you know, the the Hatfields
- 26:25versus The McCoys and I heard tale of disrespectful things
- 26:30being said like all y'all are old and y'all are washed up but
- 26:33y'all can't run fast. No more.
- 26:36I mean we're talking. About 20.
- 26:38Something's being talked bad about.
- 26:41Well, I mean, the whole floor is yours.
- 26:43I think it was gone that relay Stevie because Gil grants, 24
- 26:47areas haryana calls everybody old.
- 26:49You think it's do that and I think, I think Quincy might be
- 26:5425, right? So yes and that area.
- 26:58So I mean, like again, that's it was a phenomenal run.
- 27:02I honestly there was a point in time where I wasn't going to
- 27:06allow that to happen because As a lot of all the chatter and I
- 27:11kind of got, you know, somebody asked me if I was scared so they
- 27:14know that changed everything right there.
- 27:15So I think the beauty of it was because of all the trash talk is
- 27:25always the somebody's going to go out and try to do too much
- 27:28thing, right? And because nobody did that
- 27:31everybody just wanted their job at like I told him for the rest
- 27:34of like look make him reach it, right?
- 27:37But make Them beat you by doing it the right way.
- 27:39Don't go out here and go out too fast, because none of them are
- 27:42going to do that, right? I got, I got told Jacory of the
- 27:46top. I know who he is, you know who
- 27:48he is. But you gotta run it, right?
- 27:50Just do your I seen you before I respect.
- 27:52That was a beauty about it. Exactly, right.
- 27:56Okay, that's that's what I know you have the numbers because you
- 28:04were there and she'll crew. Corey Patterson out.
- 28:09Split the Olympic champion, did he not know, they were equal?
- 28:15They were equal or even. Okay, great.
- 28:17So you random even 40 42 lat. Okay, so like, so, let's talk
- 28:27about you, Cory Here For a Moment, Like, You Corey
- 28:29Patterson is one of those very Unique Individuals that can just
- 28:34do about anything he wants. And Everybody knows Jacory as a
- 28:40form of M guy, but you Cory ran 10 for and 2065 in high school,
- 28:45right? So Jacory is really, we're
- 28:48really exploring your koi Sprint, Sprint, promise, promise
- 28:55you, we're exploring that and the great thing about that is,
- 28:58as we kind of delve into that, you know, you know, opens up at
- 29:0210:00 11:00. Now his confidence in the form,
- 29:05just gone through the roof because he because he He said to
- 29:07me he's like well I can go out as fast as I want now you right.
- 29:11Yeah it does hurt me anymore. Ya know.
- 29:14So like when you know he just follows TV around the track in
- 29:23the beauty of that race was that, you know, I da said to me,
- 29:27he goes man, like, I'm looking at the Gap and I think my guys
- 29:30are running like crap and I stopped to watch my gospel at
- 29:3445, too exciting. But yeah, it wasn't even this.
- 29:37I'm very cold, you know? Sometimes sometimes you ride
- 29:40that wave, you just catch a wave when you just, you know, I want
- 29:46to say this to all the assistant coaches out there, right?
- 29:49Sometimes your boss, and this case my guy, but sometimes your
- 29:54boss gives you a job and just says it offhandedly.
- 29:57Hey, I need you to do this and you walk away.
- 29:59You're like this. You understand like how
- 30:01important in like wildly like significant a job.
- 30:05He just gave me so before 4x4 solution says to me, hey I want
- 30:11you and Coach man to split the Adidas team in the 4 by 4.
- 30:17And I just said, okay, and I keep walking in like 10 steps
- 30:20later. I'm like what?
- 30:24So I got to contribute. Yes, you do.
- 30:47They come to me. No, they don't run.
- 30:48But that, that group was like, we're running and Ike Grant had
- 30:52watched Champion, do some 450 the earlier in the week and he
- 30:57said, we said I'm watching this dude do these four friends.
- 30:59He said I gotta get away from this dude.
- 31:02You're not always going to be coming, right?
- 31:04You just do you watch crazy gravity just takes off?
- 31:07Yeah, that's a gap Point yet right away.
- 31:09So, I mean, that sounds like to the chatter, it was a good chat.
- 31:12And, you know, obviously it's a special group of young men and I
- 31:17I told them are probably a month ago after Texas.
- 31:20Realize I thought we could run to 57 and I still think we can,
- 31:26you know, until and I will see that we know that in favor,
- 31:30would, you know, the big big runs but it's got then.
- 31:34The guy throw the discus like 212 feet or more?
- 31:38Yes, yeah, and there was a 143. Yes.
- 31:42Yeah. 143 800. Mystery guest and the number for
- 31:49400 on the women's side of Allah with my side.
- 31:53Yeah, okay. So here's the thing, if you
- 31:55weren't, if you weren't in the building, I promise you the 143
- 32:01happened and the 49 8 happened, and literally five minutes later
- 32:06everybody in the entire place was like, all right, what's
- 32:09next? We got listen, we got so
- 32:12spoiled. Yeah, I the meat that we were
- 32:16like Literally gluttons for more greatness.
- 32:19Yeah. The 143, the 143 got no love.
- 32:28We're all super nerd track fans. Right?
- 32:32But I don't think any of us have the stomach to put a track meet,
- 32:37a Collegiate track me on television, hit play and sit
- 32:41there. I watched the replay
- 32:46wire-to-wire and for the most part, this was my posture.
- 32:53Like I had a face on the whole time is that it was just one
- 32:59after the other. Was it a perfect day?
- 33:02She lucious was it? Like it started on Friday
- 33:05because like and we call it the Walter dicks win, right?
- 33:09Where we were monitoring 1960 windpipe, they cut is coming
- 33:12across. Yeah but the turn right?
- 33:16And so on the straightaways like you know, one point this.
- 33:20But on this turn, Because we don't know how bitchiest report
- 33:23of the dirt, right? Especially if you're in the
- 33:25outer Lanes, where it's a little bit.
- 33:28So that's what you got on Friday.
- 33:29And then it wasn't like scorching hot but it was hot.
- 33:34And then you had just like every event had special people in it
- 33:40and it right? And and they took yeah, that's
- 33:44what can I cocaine in the women's 800.
- 33:46The top two girls are in 2001, you know, they and they both
- 33:49like the girl from Old West went out and see. 60.3 and came back
- 33:52and 60.76 and it was just crazy stuff like that, you know, and I
- 33:57in the anything was in the men's 800 when the guy from Texas Tech
- 34:02went in, when he like, you don't know.
- 34:04Nope. You don't want anybody break
- 34:05Brandon Miller, right? He just broken and kept going
- 34:09and we are standing here like this is what I'm really fast or
- 34:14they're not just Brandon. They're all really slow and he
- 34:17was running really fast. So here's the question.
- 34:21Radius one day, nor our meat, on your track, you've put together.
- 34:29Regulars. You with this stack up, that's a
- 34:31man is. I mean we've had some Florida
- 34:33relays I've to go back and look historically.
- 34:36But yeah, I mean when you have to Collegiate records, that the
- 34:40to Collegiate records and all the other stuff, we just talked
- 34:42about the do 212 feet and 143 is the best type of their a try
- 34:46campus. Because that's good.
- 34:47Let's just stop right there. Yeah, I mean we like your two
- 34:53guys jump 73 in the high job. Young lady from Texas A&M 6:40
- 35:00or something like that. That is magically.
- 35:02It was it was a pretty big win behind her but she still did it.
- 35:05I mean me, Jasmine more jumped, 46 and some change it to into a
- 35:10headwind, right? Heard a tricky over the Tricia
- 35:12super broker countries. Country, rare Nacional record in
- 35:17the triple jump. No.
- 35:18It just would just like, in the neck in the men's hundred like,
- 35:22okay, let's address it. Matthew bowling 1998, as we
- 35:25said, we haven't mentioned that 21.
- 35:59I was, I was highly disappointed in the time, not him.
- 36:03But I also see, I tried I tried to warn you.
- 36:06I told you what it was. You did, you did you see?
- 36:09Is he because he, he, he's been doing starts with Ariane like
- 36:14all week, and he's been beating Ariana.
- 36:17So when he watches area around 10:00 for in the heat before
- 36:20him, he's like, well I'm gonna run 99, right?
- 36:23But you don't want 99 by over competing, you know you execute
- 36:27right? And so and so trust me like it
- 36:31took a couple days to get get his rhythm back between hurdles
- 36:33this week because under the Masters driving in the hundred
- 36:41and I don't I don't want to hear anybody eight weeks from now
- 36:47talking about out loud or in the background or behind closed
- 36:51doors. I don't want to hear anybody
- 36:53talking about will grant ran the hundred-year intend to shut the
- 36:56hell up? Yes, please.
- 36:58Watch the video, the turn. I don't want to hear it.
- 37:04There is no better third leg in this country probably in the
- 37:08world than that man. Leave it alone.
- 37:12Yep. And look just to your point
- 37:16earlier under to your point earlier about leaving the young
- 37:20and on anchor. Listen, this is not a shout at
- 37:23Trayvon, I need to put that disclaimer out there, but I just
- 37:27want to say this, you are At your PR still, you are right.
- 37:31Man's PB is 977 and he got dismantled by Ariane.
- 37:36It's not a shot against Ray Vaughan, it's a reason to lie
- 37:39very out on a, that's my point. Okay.
- 37:41So can we can we hold here for a second because this people jump
- 37:45on me when I make these type of points your your ability to come
- 37:50out of blocks and run a straight line over. 100 meters has
- 37:54absolutely nothing to do with your skill set to be in.
- 37:58Anchor or to be a third leg would be a pop off or do
- 38:01anything else. I'm sorry.
- 38:04Ariane destroyed the anchor so badly.
- 38:07I forgot. It was Trayvon.
- 38:08He was running against like, it wasn't closed and it went
- 38:14missing worse, as they got closer to the Finish Line area
- 38:18all night and was a running start.
- 38:21Might be faster than everybody. He is well there's still a
- 38:26Joseph humbly on this planet. Okay let's Big Joe runs for a
- 38:31foreign country so that's not even an option.
- 38:34Yeah. But in the United States Ariane
- 38:37might be faster than everybody with a running start.
- 38:39Yeah, I would Reserve judgment to see him and Noah get the
- 38:44stick at the same time and see what happens then because oh,
- 38:48trust me, I wanted to see that. Weekend.
- 38:52Yeah, yeah. Because I wasn't reading that
- 38:55and everybody else. And that was the talk in the
- 38:57infield. After, you know, because three
- 39:00of the guys on the floor by one we're truly Adidas in the one is
- 39:03not truly Adidas but so there's like what happens if you put no
- 39:07on that team? Yeah, yeah, whatever.
- 39:11Well, send back stretch because three and four are done.
- 39:17Let me tell you something. Listen, if you run, if you pop
- 39:20off Ronnie Baker, And Ronnie Baker to Noah Lyles to Flamingo
- 39:24to Ariane. Listen, pick a country.
- 39:26Oh my pick a country. I'll take those four against any
- 39:29country including the remainder of the United States.
- 39:35I'll take those four Dudes to give any other four Dudes in the
- 39:38world. So, can we address the other
- 39:45meat, Robinson?
- 40:05Jones, ran, 50, 89 at Tom Jones for a PB and a monster run by a
- 40:14Collegian and she got beat by a second by Michael teammate.
- 40:21Yes, our team, right? Like, look, let that wash over
- 40:24you, folks. You're on 50 point eight and you
- 40:26might not be the fastest person sitting in your bus seat, back
- 40:29to the hotel. You you're not, okay.
- 40:44And we talked about little bit on the show, right?
- 40:46But we're sitting in the office and I'll send me to realize,
- 40:49okay? You got, you know, Florida,
- 40:51Florida, State Texas Tech TCU Texas, A&M cleansing LSU, North
- 40:58Carolina A&T, the North Carolina's, bringing people in
- 41:00the north, and all kind of States bringing people, and then
- 41:03a wide awake, mr. Jefferson's coming, right?
- 41:06And and and then quiet as it's kept, let me give a shout out to
- 41:09somebody data. Bun is coaching for Yes, you
- 41:12always get it done down to you. Yeah, you know, she's got these
- 41:17people, nobody ever heard of, you know, run a 52 flat running.
- 41:21Yo, 12, sevens. And you know, her Relay Team ran
- 41:24331, all by themselves, you know, just out there getting it
- 41:27done and out of the slower heat, you know?
- 41:30So no, I mean, I, it was just a phenomenal competition.
- 41:33But when you have that kind of group here, that's what you
- 41:37expect and that's what we got. And I'll say this, it was said
- 41:42at the meeting, random spots and various terms because at one
- 41:45point, whatever day was that, I was there all day long.
- 41:48Right? Example, X is that that meat was
- 41:52better than photo relays, it was just crazy, been better in Texas
- 41:57realize you know, what's funny. I'm not telling you how long
- 41:59we've been talking about this 13:22.
- 42:04Just just like I guess the point is Is like, listen, I do feel
- 42:11incredibly fortunate that I was, I was blessed enough to be there
- 42:14for the whole meat but I promise you folks, we're forgetting
- 42:18something. That's what I'm trying to world
- 42:20the world into a champion in the 400 open at the 2012 and to 200,
- 42:24made it look real easy. There you go, Linda look really?
- 42:28Yeah. Oh hey a redheaded Ginger from
- 42:32Great. Britain ran, 2019, I don't even
- 42:34know his name. Dobson Dobson, And I'm standing
- 42:39that were being with. I'm standing there.
- 42:42Adoption is his name, I'm standing there with the British
- 42:44record holder. John Regis.
- 42:47Mmm. And he's like, did I just see a
- 42:51ginger run 2019? I said yes he did.
- 42:55Yes. He's all right.
- 42:58It's coasting. It, we're me.
- 43:00Me, me and the governor were out on the west coast.
- 43:03Yes. And nothing tote in totality
- 43:08will talk Tom Jones. Been no Mount Sac and Bryan.
- 43:12Clay were epic in their own, right?
- 43:15Yes, they were Let me start with what I thought, might have been
- 43:21the most impressive. Michael, Williams, dismantled,
- 43:26all the pros. I mean, dismantle, 983.
- 43:33Yep. And yes, it was slightly windy
- 43:37but I do mean slightly. Hey, are again, that kid got his
- 43:46nose right in there and made the Olympic trial finals, last time.
- 43:52Uhm. So there's nobody that he is
- 43:55worried about concerned with or scared of and I'm sorry 1983
- 44:00right now. He's problem.
- 44:03Yep. Very serious problem.
- 44:07I mean, I think we also have to understand that When you watch
- 44:10the race, you're like he was never like, you know, most times
- 44:15people get in that Arena and they're like, you know, panicky
- 44:18and tight do stood up from that about 20 meters, like I'm out.
- 44:22Yeah, you know, like, is acting like this is my playground and
- 44:28I'm tired of dealing with job out, and it was a great was a
- 44:30great run. I'll always do the line.
- 44:33It was very, very nice. How much.
- 44:35I think we look stalker. We putting into Miss Miss to to
- 44:39Terry's race. Nice.
- 44:40I mean, how long has it been since we've seen that?
- 44:46Well, I mean it's only been a year.
- 44:48She went 2010 70-something last year, I get the Pac-12 or
- 44:51something. I think, you know, this is
- 44:53right. So I was super impressed with TT
- 44:58simply because coaching changes are often difficult and yes,
- 45:03they are made a drastic one. Yes.
- 45:06And so for her to seem to be in a place where it's working, And
- 45:10she's figuring things out. Early is a great sign for TT and
- 45:15honestly, a great sign for for American, you know, American
- 45:19women Sprint's because we have a void in the hundred meters right
- 45:23now. Yep.
- 45:24I mean, you know and let's be real.
- 45:28The Jamaican came out Flew all the way out here and this this
- 45:33is the psychology of this. I love it.
- 45:35Oh man. Okay Elaine Thompson has nothing
- 45:38to prove. Nothing.
- 45:40Arguably the goat, by all accounts.
- 45:44She's never been to Mount Sac and there's no reason for her to
- 45:47be there. She got on a plane and flew all
- 45:49the way out to Cali wanting the smoke.
- 45:51And no one gave it to her. So she chucked the Deuces and
- 45:54didn't show up for the finer. He's like y'all wasting my time
- 45:57out here with his bitch. Loved it.
- 46:00Loved every minute and we rarely see you.
- 46:05And the story, but what about Miss Thomas running?
- 46:09When running the 100 and coming back, 30 minutes later on 22
- 46:12flat. Hey listen.
- 46:14Yeah, and you know what I saw I heard on the replay broadcast
- 46:21that the Tanja was in the hospital for something.
- 46:24I don't know anything about that.
- 46:26Tanja, I hope you're good. I hope everything is okay.
- 46:29Anton just coaching her ass off. Yeah.
- 46:32She's like, Gabby was incredible.
- 46:35That was just that she brought up Tonya, that has been
- 46:38Hospital. Never put a business streets,
- 46:39but she is back home. Now, she's recovering.
- 46:41Well as I spoke with her yesterday, so yeah, she's doing
- 46:44better. Yeah.
- 46:47I mean if you saw the interview with Gabby, she said, you know,
- 46:52they were treating it, like practice.
- 46:53She knew that that was the schedule but she didn't realize
- 46:58that it was as tight as it were. Yes, yes.
- 47:01So I was I was shocked and pleasantly surprised that she
- 47:05didn't dip out on it, but it was literally, you know, I don't
- 47:09even think it was a full 30 minutes like it was back-to-back
- 47:13basically. Yeah.
- 47:14And for her to come out there and on the tail end of that drop
- 47:17of 2222. Oh, Man.
- 47:24So, what do we think about the curly Norman matchup?
- 47:29It didn't disappoint. Oh, that all.
- 47:35I want to start this banter by saying this I said to Sir,
- 47:42lucious somewhere between four, six, four and six weeks ago, I
- 47:46think the men's 200 of the US championships is going to be the
- 47:49best of that other than the women's hurdles and I said, I'm
- 47:54deathly afraid. We're going to leave somebody
- 47:56who runs 19:7 home. It probably sounds like
- 48:00hyperbole when I said it but let's just think about it to
- 48:03quarter. Mile is just ran 1988 and their
- 48:05openers is slow for that wasn't Fred's opener.
- 48:08Was this everyone's afraid of opening?
- 48:11It was it was a second 200. Yeah.
- 48:15They ran 80 and 83 area looks like he's going to run, I don't
- 48:18know. 11 seconds to the 200, right?
- 48:22And Noah hasn't run yet, right, right.
- 48:25And we're not even talking about anybody else.
- 48:27There's a lot of Truth. That get left at the house for
- 48:52sure. That's very, very much 7x.
- 48:56What, what makes that intriguing to me is?
- 48:59It's a world championship year. It's not an Olympic year but so
- 49:02ain't no, I'm going to do the hundred on opening weekend and
- 49:05then come back. 10 days later and figure it out.
- 49:07No, no, no. It's all in the same weekend so
- 49:11you better be very strategic. You can't just go out and run
- 49:15hundred and think the 200 going to be cake because it's not I
- 49:20just I just love that. We're seeing two Meats, where
- 49:26money isn't on the table, and these folks are laying it on the
- 49:30line like this. This is stuff that, you know,
- 49:35Lamar and I Clyde you went through this, you chased the
- 49:40competition, like you wanted to be there.
- 49:44You wanted to go line up with the best, because that's how you
- 49:48figured out where you stood. That's what you eat.
- 49:51This is how, you know, where you're at.
- 49:53And we haven't seen very much of that outside of, hey, here's a
- 49:58Payday. You know, let's let's do it
- 50:01because we're Pros to see this at Tom Jones and to see this at
- 50:05Mount Sac phenomenal. Absolutely phenomenal.
- 50:09I hope it continues, because this is, this is, this is a
- 50:12weird year. I mean with World Championships
- 50:15being in July, like there isn't going to be much room to be over
- 50:19in Europe. You know going back and forth
- 50:22like you're probably going to make one trip.
- 50:24Never be it. That's right, I love it.
- 50:28Absolutely. And you getting back to the
- 50:32Mount Sac stuff. Look, some things are obvious
- 50:35and, you know, at this point everybody's expecting obviously,
- 50:40USC is USC and Jet is coaching her ass off.
- 50:43Devante Burnett ran 999. USC, women were, you know, very
- 50:49impressive as we expect. But there's some underrated
- 50:52things that went on out there that definitely caught my
- 50:57attention because I've been kind of waiting on it.
- 51:01And and I root for these people. Ronnie Harrison is doing an
- 51:05excellent job at Cal Berkeley. And you know, there's a place I
- 51:11left and the team that I left young lady as an a towel is
- 51:17currently sitting number 10 in the country and she beat Kemba
- 51:20Nelson head-to-head in Hungary. This past weekend, straight up
- 51:23to her face. Hey, Beetle Now understand a
- 51:27year ago at NCAA regionals, this young lady runs her lifetime
- 51:33best 11:30 in the first round in the next round.
- 51:37Head to head with these I am, people couldn't handle the
- 51:41moment around, 1180 mmm-hmm, so fast forward a year later.
- 51:45Ronnie is doing a hell of a job, not just with her with the whole
- 51:49crew, but she is stepping in to what many of us always believed,
- 51:55she could be, and it's fun to watch.

- 52:39this is always close. We're just what happened?

- 54:03Yes, Love it man. Love it and he's and he's locked

- 54:18last year. He ran 40 40.
- 54:20Hmm, right. His first race of this season.
- 54:22He ran 40 42 or too low. I need everything.
- 54:26S is coming baby 43. As just listen, write it down in
- 54:30pain coming. Yes, absolutely.
- 54:36And the phenomenon continues another week.
- 54:41Another meet another complete replacement of the top 10 marks
- 54:46in the country in the distance race.
- 54:49I mean he's taught about my man at Alabama, yes, different
- 54:57competition. He was one of the hundred and
- 55:02twenty six guys that ran fast. Than 350 in the 1500 this
- 55:05weekend. Hence, my name for the show.
- 55:08Right. So third 10:30 guys, 30 guys
- 55:11were in 340 or faster in the 1500, right?
- 55:14The tenth best Mark in the race in the event.
- 55:18The 10th best marking, the event is 338 05 which is currently
- 55:23number ten in the country. That sub 4 minutes, folks.
- 55:29That's why I said, four minutes ain't fast.
- 55:31They out here killing it. Huh.
- 55:34Yelling it. So you're trying to you're
- 55:36basically traipsing around the country, trying to find
- 55:39lightning and bottling. Okay, where is everybody?
- 55:41Okay, that's where we're going and it and it's happening,
- 55:45right? And it's so if you're if you're
- 55:50unfamiliar with Mount Sac weekend, as we all refer to it
- 55:55on the West Coast because of the oddness of the schedule, that is
- 56:00Mount sac. Relays.
- 56:02Bryan clay and Long Beach kind of serve as these.
- 56:06What used to be overflow means. Yes, satellite now, right?
- 56:11But now Brian is other me Distance Carnival joints.
- 56:18Yep. The night before or the night of
- 56:21everything popping off at Mount Sac and it's close enough that
- 56:24everybody can get away with it. Yeah, like that's that's turned
- 56:27into mid-distance meet its Bryan, clay now.
- 56:31Yeah. Yes.
- 56:34Pretty phenomenal. So, I got to say, being being in
- 56:39that Stadium for the first time I am full stand, fully
- 56:46understand that is where the Olympic trials need to be at
- 56:51some point. Should have been that.
- 56:56That is a yeah, they did an amazing job with that Stadium.
- 57:00I'm glad the governor is one of us here.
- 57:05They got to see it in person. Now the next time when I say
- 57:09it's the cathedral, yes Mount Sac and everything else, no one
- 57:14looks at me like I'm crazy. Oh, it's a Juco.
- 57:16I don't give a damn about to be in the Juco.
- 57:18Listen to me know. Well, here's a little, here's a
- 57:24little bit of trivia for the rest of the country who thinks
- 57:28they have certain pictures in their head about junior
- 57:29colleges. Listen to me carefully, I'm
- 57:32going to say this and you're not going to list.
- 57:33You're not going to understand Mount San.
- 57:36Antonio College has the largest enrollment of any institution in
- 57:41the state of California. It is a new year.
- 57:44School is a two-year school as almost 60,000 students.
- 57:50Wow. Oh, they got money.
- 57:53So they have money, always have money to do whatever they need
- 57:59to do. But again, I think this is also
- 58:02hilarious. How long have we been talking
- 58:03about Mount Sac? I don't know 20 minutes.
- 58:06Haven't mention, Aiden Owens. I was about to the deck itself.
- 58:12A nose was phenomenal. Yeah, the whole deck competition
- 58:15was fired up the deck. What here's what?
- 58:18People don't get the Bryan clay deck.
- 58:21Was phenomenal. Yes, nobody even saw that
- 58:26because Aiden Owens didn't break the Collegiate record.
- 58:30Yep, I said it at Mount Sac, but he scored 85 hundred and
- 58:36twenty-eight points. Yes.
- 58:40That's a lot of points. So that is a ridiculous amount
- 58:44of points for a Collegiate. Yes, it is.
- 58:48Yes, it is. And as a ridiculous number of
- 58:50points, I know, you know all of it but let's run through.
- 58:54It tend to in the hundred 40 60 in the quarter.
- 59:00Yeah, 13:13 46 like twelve twelve or thirteen.
- 59:05Yeah. And then like for 12 or for 1304
- 59:1213 the 1500. What their team?
- 59:15Yes. Wow, shows running events are
- 59:18pretty good. There's seven other events in
- 59:23there, too. So will he represent Puerto
- 59:31Rico? Yes okay yes.
- 59:36Okay and he is now qualified for World Championships, he will be
- 59:40there another race that we cannot we cannot miss from Mount
- 59:50Sac. Miss Courtney way meant ran nine
- 59:542688 in the Steeplechase. Really.
- 1:00:00Yeah, I want to I want to say this.
- 1:00:02So people understand this, I was at the University of California,
- 1:00:05I was ahead track and field coach.
- 1:00:06And we had a guy on money that ran that no, no, listen, no, I'm
- 1:00:12being serious like and I wasn't mad that he was all money.
- 1:00:15He wasn't on a lot of money, but I'm saying, it's like he ran
- 1:00:18that as a high school, senior, you know, first race.
- 1:00:21As a Collegiate freshman, right? I wasn't upset about that.
- 1:00:24You know I'm saying like that's not terrible, he's a Dude, the
- 1:00:29number two time in the country. Was set this last weekend at
- 1:00:33Bryan, clay, by a sophomore. Miss Thorne Ur from New Mexico.
- 1:00:39So number two, Is nine 4098 his way Brad 926.
- 1:00:50Yeah. What what is?
- 1:00:51What does that look like on TV, right?
- 1:00:53Good Lord. And then I'm not sure where she
- 1:00:59was but I'm she was out there somewhere.
- 1:01:00The young lady from LSU had had when we got there she wants
- 1:01:03that. She meant for 13 and too flat.
- 1:01:07Yeah, yeah. A lot to digest.
- 1:01:13This is not the weekend. I have a really good
- 1:01:17performance. Because nobody knows Shadow and
- 1:01:21they didn't only still only seriously, I'm 75 this weekend.
- 1:01:2476, something like that. No, I just don't like that is 36
- 1:01:32and a half. Tough times.
- 1:01:39But on schedule, right? Yeah, right about time.
- 1:01:45Good planning on everybody's part.
- 1:01:48Now you got to maintain and do it again.
- 1:01:52Yeah. And that's the beauty of it.
- 1:01:53I mean, I think that we witness it indoors.
- 1:01:55I still think that if the national be had been in a
- 1:01:59different facility, we'd had, we had seen better marks but you'll
- 1:02:04it was what it was. But I think that this year get
- 1:02:08your popcorn ready, it's gonna be good.
- 1:02:12It's going good. Oh man.
- 1:02:17Chase, do we dare get off this cart and go into another cart?
- 1:02:23Let's go. I'm sure we do.
- 1:02:26Right? So we miss some things, I know
- 1:02:29and we will and oh no who get killed for this work.
- 1:02:33Will get killed for its hold on Clayton.
- 1:02:39I can't say it. Clayton from Sam, Houston,
- 1:02:42jumped 19 2 of 19 and a quarter. Not 580 at Mount Sac in the pole
- 1:02:49vault Just cause it's Thursday world.
- 1:02:58Leader world leader. Yeah.
- 1:03:05That's nuts. All right.
- 1:03:09Well, now let's I don't even know if we can say, if I can say
- 1:03:13it like this, get off of the stats and go over to something
- 1:03:19that that it encompasses. The question, the topic that we
- 1:03:22just had, who do you all, think, is the greatest combo Sprinter,
- 1:03:29meaning, 100 200, 400 out there, both male and female.
- 1:03:35Wait out there, or all time. I guess it's a great question.
- 1:03:39I didn't clarify that are we going all time for all time.
- 1:03:42Okay. My bad, my bad.
- 1:03:49This feels like something the governor should open.
- 1:03:53Well, some stats Burleson's. Jess.
- 1:03:57Well can we can we start with the woman?
- 1:04:01Yeah, because that's place. So, I think I think obviously
- 1:04:12this is a subjective question because you have the statistics,
- 1:04:17right, let's start with Marita cock.
- 1:04:21Okay, 1083 2171 and 4760. Okay then we go to Florence.
- 1:04:34Griffith Joyner. 1061 21, 34 55, 89.
- 1:04:40We know what that could have been.
- 1:04:41We know if what you said 1061 huh?
- 1:04:45You stealing the world right now it's right there. 49 9, you said
- 1:04:5060 1961? Okay, sorry, then you have
- 1:04:56Marion Jones 1065 2162 cannot finish 5036.
- 1:05:05Okay, so now we enter this reality show named a little bow.
- 1:05:121098 2174 4836. Next cherica Jackson, 1076 2182
- 1:05:2549:47. That's the one that most people
- 1:05:28wouldn't have guessed mmm-hmm, and then we get to Allyson Felix
- 1:05:341089 2169 4926. Okay, after that, you talking
- 1:05:44about Gwen Marie Jose a prereq Briscoe privalova.
- 1:05:49I mean this this list is just ridiculous.
- 1:05:54Just take your pick. Okay.
- 1:05:59I'll take my pick. Okay, let's go since I'm going
- 1:06:02to instantly disqualify the first three.
- 1:06:06Oh my God. This guy instantly disqualified.
- 1:06:14The conversation for me starts with the Bahamian.
- 1:06:19Jamaican and Alison. Okay.
- 1:06:22Now it's from like you said it is subjective and it's really,
- 1:06:27really interesting. Yep, because Alison is obviously
- 1:06:31at the tail end of her career yet still in a position where
- 1:06:34she's collecting Metals. Hmm.
- 1:06:38And then the sherita's I should Rica and Shawn are kind of in
- 1:06:43the early Ages. You know, they're young enough
- 1:06:45that they could do a lot of things, right?
- 1:06:50I think by the end of this year, I will change my mind and Crown,
- 1:06:55Sean a caring. But She needs another metal
- 1:07:00before I can do that. So, right now, I'm going to go
- 1:07:03ahead and say that it's Allison because the numbers are close
- 1:07:07enough and she has the hardware. Yes.
- 1:07:13But Shana is one individual gold away from me.
- 1:07:16Just handing his her because who's gonna stop.
- 1:07:21What's the okay? So let me do as I do and stir
- 1:07:24the pot with you. Yes, I am here for this.
- 1:07:29Here we go on, man. Shawn is one the 400, correct?
- 1:07:34She remembered in the 200? Yes.
- 1:07:36Yeah, she met on a 200. Yes, his sheer Milton 100.
- 1:07:42No, no, no, she will never melt. So you talk about, see this
- 1:07:48time, disrespect Allison. I mean, come on the woman's
- 1:07:51metal and been in World Champs file and Olympic finals in the
- 1:07:55hundred, she hasn't melted under but she's a big files about you,
- 1:07:59right? She did, she had to go to
- 1:08:00Claremont, 110 not she goes to Libya games runs today, right?
- 1:08:05So for me, I don't even want to have a discussion.
- 1:08:09I mean, well maybe I'm not one to waste my words.
- 1:08:11I mean it's Alison this. In Columbus.
- 1:08:13No, that's so if we're going to eliminate the first three, is
- 1:08:16you way for what we are doing that.
- 1:08:19He's okay. He's okay.
- 1:08:21So, so guys, okay, so I don't know how you like, you discount
- 1:08:27what cokin and what she did either, right, but for me,
- 1:08:31regardless of whether she was having assistant or not, I'm
- 1:08:35still riding with hours after right without where he doesn't.
- 1:08:42How I discount it? Well, I'm saying is that she
- 1:08:55brings to the table. But Allison just brought a
- 1:08:59different different flavor meant.
- 1:09:01No. And and she done it for such a
- 1:09:03long time and she's the most decorated when a woman of all
- 1:09:07time. And again she's 10 8 and 20 16
- 1:09:11and 48 seconds, I believe. So the awesome train so let me
- 1:09:19cuz I think we're all going to pick out certain but you said
- 1:09:22no, no, no we're not well, the Marjorie you're going to be
- 1:09:25silly and pick one of the disqualified but I'm not going
- 1:09:28to be silly. I'm going to make it legitimate
- 1:09:30justification but God will, then I'll bring I'll wait, I'll wait
- 1:09:33to answer Lucius my question. Go ahead ahead, an alarm.
- 1:09:36Okay, listen. I understand that there are
- 1:09:43drugs and drug culture and things that we have to Take at
- 1:09:47face value, right? I think we all agree with that.
- 1:09:51Here's the thing. I'm older than you and I watch
- 1:09:56this happen real, and then I washed it on video several
- 1:10:00times. And I'm going to say this I've
- 1:10:04seen some incredible things in track and field, the gun went
- 1:10:09off in the 400. 27 minutes before the gun went off for the
- 1:10:19800 final at 83 World Championships and your army look
- 1:10:22correct view of around 47 99 in the 401 53 in the 800.
- 1:10:28I'm going to say this again, those two races are 27 minutes
- 1:10:32apart at a major championship not where it's not a Tom Jones
- 1:10:36Invitational where you could just like go get an ice bath you
- 1:10:39know maybe find a cryo and like jump back out there like you got
- 1:10:42to like go through press and blah blah blah.
- 1:10:46And then go back and attempt to get checked back in and conjunct
- 1:10:50rated out. They had drug testing in 83.
- 1:10:56And she passed. I'm not saying she's clean.
- 1:11:00That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is this drugs
- 1:11:04are no drugs if you run under 11 seconds and under a under 154 I
- 1:11:11don't care if you were on rocket fuel.
- 1:11:15You have the greatest range of any female has ever walked this
- 1:11:19planet. And what is it about?
- 1:11:23The question sir, right? So the question question was a
- 1:11:26question about raise? The question is, who was the
- 1:11:30greatest combo Sprinter? Right?
- 1:11:32So okay, so the 800 this print now, you know, some I'm going to
- 1:11:39pick. Yarmilla because sometimes you
- 1:11:44get extra credit for other. Shit you do oh wow.
- 1:11:48See listen. Okay, I'm listening issuing this
- 1:12:07and I love you today. Yes.
- 1:12:11Today. S your me.
- 1:12:15Look, I'm sorry her 10. A was windy.
- 1:12:20Yeah, yeah. Sorry, wind doesn't cause I
- 1:12:23think has no, I because I'm older than you knew.
- 1:12:28She knew that was her only assist Legally Legally.
- 1:12:34Yes, 2197. 47 99 and 150. Three and then and it still give
- 1:12:45her the wind. No.
- 1:12:47It's the least of the assistance she had was the win.
- 1:12:51Anyway. Mainly to be different.
- 1:12:56Yeah, somebody else I love Allison, don't get me wrong, but
- 1:13:01like at the end of the day, if we're just doing combo
- 1:13:03sprinters, it was between Alison and Sean, a outtake Shana every
- 1:13:06day. He said, who before we went down
- 1:13:12this road and I had why, because I think you they raced in if
- 1:13:15they raced it all three, she would lose it.
- 1:13:17All three, that's why I prime. Yes here we go.
- 1:13:23Yes I think Prime Allison loses two, prime shot, a in the 1 the
- 1:13:282 and the 4. I know she loses in the one in
- 1:13:31the for I know this. How do you know that?
- 1:13:38Beating her in the 404. No, in a major championship.
- 1:13:42Yes no yes no. She's over came up short.
- 1:13:47Did I miss? That's real.
- 1:13:49That's real. That's real.
- 1:13:52But but wait a minute, but wait a minute.
- 1:13:54We can't let him get away with that because you just said, In
- 1:14:00the four Prime Sean a beats Prime Allison, that is an
- 1:14:04Allison. Never ran the 400 in her prime.
- 1:14:07Seriously, not my problem, what you doing?
- 1:14:13Hypotheticals what exactly, you can't make something happen that
- 1:14:19didn't happen, right? Well, he can, do you really
- 1:14:22believe that? So you really believe Shawn is
- 1:14:25going to be 100 and the 200 Yes. No no guys.
- 1:14:34I understand. We don't all have to be clear.
- 1:14:37You donut. Clearly you don't understand why
- 1:14:39you would be making sure that we don't have to agree.
- 1:14:41I love Allison. This isn't about a Love Fest.
- 1:14:44This is just what I think. I'm ready.
- 1:14:46It's my opinion, right? So we all we all love you, too,
- 1:14:49and you're entitled to your opinion, it's wrong this time,
- 1:14:51okay? I mean, listen, y'all can say
- 1:14:53what you want to say. So, as hen you asking you,
- 1:14:57right? Exactly.
- 1:15:00So I had I had a very similar mindset as Lamar did when when
- 1:15:08this topic came up because I cannot let go of the fact that
- 1:15:14Miss pretty Bulova completely cleanse herself in Sydney.
- 1:15:22Comes out of seemingly nowhere and wins the for hurdles like
- 1:15:28her aunt. I mean, so you're talking about
- 1:15:33world record in the 60, right? It left, 10 2010, 77 and 120,
- 1:15:41187, and 49 89 in the quarter. Like And what 52 something in
- 1:15:47the form of hurdles? Yes.
- 1:15:51I mean stupid, what? Allison's ago?
- 1:15:57Stay right there. This this to me is a LeBron MJ
- 1:16:05conversation. It is all in most cultures what
- 1:16:09in almost all go conversations, are they are.
- 1:16:11Thank you so much. Let me let me ask Lucius.
- 1:16:17Is there anything? Since since we're making that
- 1:16:20reference, is there anything that Sean a could accomplish?
- 1:16:26That would make you get off of that hill?
- 1:16:31Or when I see Shaunie, make major major championship final
- 1:16:34and 100 consistently run fast on because I thought, okay, Allison
- 1:16:39didn't just show up at random meter, but fasten a larger
- 1:16:43Allison was in the major final. Mm-hmm.
- 1:16:46That's that's my thing with Alice.
- 1:16:47Like she lined up in the major final and did this now, right?
- 1:16:51That is true. But correct, phone number, That
- 1:17:00that that that would that might lean leave me or what but she
- 1:17:05might think I think with Alison is ABC.
- 1:17:07Talents has won the for she's wanted to and she was in a final
- 1:17:11of the hundred 100. Yes, yes.
- 1:17:13That's right, baby. That's what, that's what put us
- 1:17:16over the top for me because again, you do, I think Shawn a
- 1:17:19can run 10 8, I absolutely do have watch her in tonight,
- 1:17:24right? Or you have no.
- 1:17:24Right. So so the thing is, is like, but
- 1:17:27can she do it in the mail? Major, you know this is not like
- 1:17:30you said, it's not a distance on a at all like Sean.
- 1:17:32A is just right incredible but this think that Alison's overall
- 1:17:37body of work for me but I now have shown a run wins a double
- 1:17:42that moves up for sure but I bet if she wants to be the all-time
- 1:17:45go to as far as all three or concern, even let me unless you
- 1:17:49decide to go run the 800 and then I still won't care.
- 1:17:56That's want one, two, four, one, two.
- 1:18:01Switch lanes. Yes, the man beside gender.
- 1:18:06All right, so we should know this by Heart by now.
- 1:18:11I mean, we do. We do, it's stupid.
- 1:18:17It's just Absolute craziness, you know, when you just think
- 1:18:23this conversation boils down to what you think?
- 1:18:27Yes, Fred Curly, Michael Norman. And if he gets back, Wade, van
- 1:18:34niekerk will do Michaels, doesn't?
- 1:18:38I mean, I don't like, it's done, right?
- 1:18:42Yeah, I mean, listen, bold is clearly number one, it ain't
- 1:18:46close. Hmm, Michael Johnson.
- 1:18:49The early. Number two, statistically
- 1:18:52whatever. It ain't close.
- 1:18:56You know, so what's bolts for what is actual legal for
- 1:19:00ordinary 28? So you say bolts one and I it's
- 1:19:07at least a conversation. Not if you take into not if you
- 1:19:11put accomplishments into it. I mean, well obviously not if
- 1:19:17you could if you included funny part is going to go and that is
- 1:19:24that boat had the advantage that worlds were run a lot more than
- 1:19:28one might be worth a lot more. Hmm, right.
- 1:19:31So Michael had the opportunity to run the world's every year
- 1:19:34like bolt did. What would his record be?
- 1:19:36Oh okay. Okay.
- 1:19:37Hypothetically hypothetically standpoint.
- 1:19:39Fine. So so great because someone said
- 1:19:42this earlier in this is exactly my Snappy retort to that.
- 1:19:45Cool. Let's take all of bolts World
- 1:19:49competitions out. He won the Olympics three times.
- 1:19:52Yeah, yes, it's still in close. Nope.
- 1:19:58Nope. Like how many times am I
- 1:19:59pointing twice twice twice. Okay to agrees not close.
- 1:20:05Uh triple triple. Well you could get the relay out
- 1:20:08of there. You.
- 1:20:09Okay. Triple-double and and so.
- 1:20:13Okay hold on. Sit again, see again I see that
- 1:20:20you don't look there's some there's some, some significant
- 1:20:24nuances to this, right? Michael ran. 43 for and 1932 in
- 1:20:31the Olympics, right? In his fourth race in his eighth
- 1:20:35race. Uh-huh.
- 1:20:38When bolt ran and was three races of the one and three races
- 1:20:42of the to write those two things are not comparable sir.
- 1:20:46Yeah. So Mike had to jog an
- 1:20:48opening-round, right? It's still a traces.
- 1:20:59I would run in the first race. 20, 20 15.
- 1:21:05No. Look, you can try to do the
- 1:21:10trying to belittle things as my grandma watching and the point.
- 1:21:15Some dude don't know where to waste.
- 1:21:18The point to it, is you still got more races, you still got
- 1:21:21more rounds, he's still got fewer opportunities to roll
- 1:21:24worlds. So like it is actually a
- 1:21:26conversation, okay? And and and let's be clear,
- 1:21:29right? Like let's not belittle the
- 1:21:33monumental. The difference between their
- 1:21:35400-meter PVCs. True.
- 1:21:38Right? The difference in their
- 1:21:40Foreigner. Pdes is similar to the
- 1:21:41difference in their hundred PVCs 10:00 and 95 and 43 and 45.
- 1:21:46Yeah, those are, those are gigantic, like, King Kong size
- 1:21:50gaps. All right?
- 1:21:51But, but, yeah, and always, when I say all that, right?
- 1:21:53Is like, look, if you, if you just talk on numerical, which
- 1:21:57obviously, none of us are going to do like Fred and Mike have
- 1:22:00the chance. No, that's that's where I was
- 1:22:03gonna go with this because you're the multis guy and we
- 1:22:06know you respect the school tables.
- 1:22:09More than any of us. Okay.
- 1:22:11Yeah. So let's be You know about the
- 1:22:14numbers? Yes, Michael Johnson's number is
- 1:22:173815 and Michael Norman's. Number is 3813.
- 1:22:22Hmm. No, Michael Johnson's number is
- 1:22:2510 or more and Michael. None of them are 0.
- 1:22:31I'm talking about the wrong. I know, I know, I know exactly
- 1:22:35what you in my raw numbers is about Metals.
- 1:22:37Okay, I'll stop this type of Michael Johnson talked about
- 1:22:40this nonsense, about Michael enormous.
- 1:22:42Begin could go Oh, look going to Mount San Antonio running for
- 1:22:46three things in April means nothing.
- 1:22:48Sure. Listen to exactly where you were
- 1:23:16going with this to. Yes, I did.
- 1:23:19This is awesome. No, sir, that this is for Lamar
- 1:23:24where I was going with this unfair where I was going with
- 1:23:28this. Did you remember what I first
- 1:23:30said, is the real conversation here?
- 1:23:33And we got distracted is bolts. Number one and Mike is number
- 1:23:37two. The real question is, who's
- 1:23:40holding the bronze medal, not who's the best?
- 1:23:42Because we know who the best Estes is bold.
- 1:23:45So for me the third place, who's the third best of all time is
- 1:23:50the convo between Mike Fred and Wade.
- 1:23:54And I was going to point out that the raw numbers have Norman
- 1:23:59way ahead. Yeah.
- 1:24:01Way ahead. That's where I was going for the
- 1:24:06raw numbers are my in having way behind because the other ones
- 1:24:09have metals and he has done. Okay.
- 1:24:12So then between those three. Who would you give it to?
- 1:24:15I'm not, that's not a discussion for me.
- 1:24:20They don't know. Way.
- 1:24:50It's about some people that did all three and also metal stuff,
- 1:24:53right? But the other two have mental
- 1:24:55sir. They have one.
- 1:24:59Yes, but it's a metal. Okay.
- 1:25:02I said medals, you said memo, they have one.
- 1:25:07I love this show. Let's not put the cart.
- 1:25:10Before the horse, the Gracie, he's doing this on purpose.
- 1:25:12It's all for you to not bite it. So we can get you on with the
- 1:25:20current debate, which is between those three.
- 1:25:22That's what that's what the people are.
- 1:25:25So, so here's what Sit down. Okay, wait is hurt and we may
- 1:25:30never hear from him again. Right unfortunately, he's not
- 1:25:33unfortunately yes, okay, Michael Norman is a tremendous Talent,
- 1:25:38as is Fred Curly, right? But until they line up and get
- 1:25:44Metals, they're just potential and potential.
- 1:25:48Simply means you haven't done anything yet.
- 1:25:49Yeah. yeah so it's a great thing until you get
- 1:26:13to the point where and then it becomes an albatross around your
- 1:26:18neck and the unfortunate part is Michael Norman is a non-metal
- 1:26:25performance in this world championship from that, being an
- 1:26:28issue. Yes, like like this is, if this
- 1:26:32was like a game of ball sport, like this is a must with.
- 1:26:35Yes, you know what I mean? Like, he has to leave this
- 1:26:37Championship with at least one, individual metal, be it for be
- 1:26:42a, to be at one. Nobody cares.
- 1:26:45But given his talent, he has to leave this world championships
- 1:26:50with a metal. No, some sort, absolutely.
- 1:26:54Michael Norman is too talented to be the, the most talented
- 1:26:58real a bandit of all time. That can't be it.
- 1:27:02He's got to pick an event and get it done.
- 1:27:05And on that same token, can we all sit here and see that exact
- 1:27:11thing playing out where he does not do this?
- 1:27:16Listen, if sure if he if he picks the 100-200 he might not
- 1:27:20make the team. He might have asked me to
- 1:27:28potential. I like, Kenny.
- 1:27:32Mmm. He's probably top 10 on that
- 1:27:36list at this point, he's got to be somewhere, but yes.
- 1:27:46I mean, I think I think anybody behind Xavier Carter a 1/8 right
- 1:27:55now and can Kenny's right underneath him.
- 1:28:00I think anybody might have that he might have the highest
- 1:28:03ceiling of anybody in the sport, the sport who.
- 1:28:09So let me say the teenager might have the highest ceiling.
- 1:28:15Anybody in the sport. So thank you for reminding me of
- 1:28:18that Lamar. Because nobody and I asked, sir
- 1:28:23lucious what mr. Knight and split was on that
- 1:28:29four by four. Because did he talk do done on
- 1:28:34his leg did were they were they conversating or something?
- 1:28:38Was it look like they were just kind of going for a stroll.
- 1:28:42Well, like Jacob Jacob. Jacob didn't know what to do.
- 1:28:45Like, he was like, he was frozen.
- 1:28:47I didn't know, I didn't know what to do because I tried to go
- 1:28:51up on her, maybe speed up and slow down.
- 1:28:54And he said that I figured, I'd take off at 200 and he took off
- 1:28:57before, I did. Right?
- 1:28:59Because like so everybody's all you should have run his legs off
- 1:29:02of him when they know you shouldn't have.
- 1:29:15Was, he did? He did is actually needed it.
- 1:29:18No, there wasn't when Ariane took off.
- 1:29:20He just did his best to sit close to me with.
- 1:29:22With also do with all due respect to mr.
- 1:29:25Miley who did a phenomenal job in that position?
- 1:29:29He's right. Yeah, no matter what he did, it
- 1:29:32was the wrong answer. No matter what he did, nitin was
- 1:29:36going to light his ass up. Regardless, so yeah, just sit
- 1:29:40there and follow it. We all we all agree that like,
- 1:29:44you know, rattlesnake Us are poisonous and dangerous, right?
- 1:29:47But what do you do with a two-headed rattlesnake that has
- 1:29:50Talons and and like Jaws for teeth like, listen area, nitin
- 1:29:56literally is a teenager, folks. Yeah, like I said this to him,
- 1:30:04If you just keep going to practice and doing what you're
- 1:30:07told to do, you're going to get better because God's making you
- 1:30:10better every day because you're only 18.
- 1:30:14Like all of us were better at 18.
- 1:30:15We were 17 as long as you don't get hurt.
- 1:30:17Alright, that's still filling your body with testosterone,
- 1:30:21wow, why we're talking about splits.
- 1:30:24And, you know, we don't we don't have Andy on the show because he
- 1:30:28could just tell me right now. So I'm relying on the governor
- 1:30:31to know, this may be one of y'all do.
- 1:30:34At the World level, there are ways to decipher, you know,
- 1:30:39flying 100 splits in the 4 by 1 and bolt.
- 1:30:43I know has the fastest ever and what was it?
- 1:30:48Was it ate and they ate something.
- 1:30:50I just don't know how low it was.
- 1:30:52Yes, but understand if you take the, the proper format of video
- 1:30:58from the tip television broadcast of the four.
- 1:31:01By one in Gainesville this past weekend and you shoot it and you
- 1:31:05put it into dartfish, you will find that mr.
- 1:31:07Nitin was 88 on the Fly. So, both clocked 879.
- 1:31:15So, like I said, leave mr. Nitin on the anchor because it's
- 1:31:2088 and it's April. Yeah, leave it alone for me.
- 1:31:28Go on three night and on anchor. And all you have to do is figure
- 1:31:33out the first two pieces. You're halfway and world record.
- 1:31:38Listen, the young and can still fit in an adult small T-shirt.
- 1:31:41Okay, folks, he he, he is only going to get better and the dude
- 1:31:48is already not already Run 10 0 and 9 8 1988.
- 1:31:54Like, listen, the smartest thing to do is like not run the event,
- 1:31:58he runs that's, that's the smartest thing to do because
- 1:32:02he's, he's not a problem. He's the answer.
- 1:32:04Yeah. He-Man times, man.
- 1:32:13In this variation of the riches for the, you know, you see let's
- 1:32:18see who gets lit up and motivated by this conversation.
- 1:32:23Hmm, because there's going to be a trickle.
- 1:32:25We just dropped the pebble now, the ripples or happen.
- 1:32:28So let's see. Let's see, I mean Milan, Serie
- 1:32:33Lucius, I feel as I consciously not writing notes right now,
- 1:32:38just waiting. He's not going to give away the
- 1:32:41secret. Nope.
- 1:32:44I will not well with that. We will go ahead and segue our
- 1:32:50way into rapid fire and the governor Europe sir.
- 1:32:56Here we go. So, all right.
- 1:33:01Hopefully, hopefully get you out with some fun stuff.
- 1:33:06Where is your dream vacation taking place?
- 1:33:13She's a somebody who's from the Cayman Islands.
- 1:33:23No, it's no kid line to Georgetown Grand came in,
- 1:33:31putting off the plane, going to the grocery store.
- 1:33:34Getting my, my nourishment, for the week, heading, up to came
- 1:33:40and Kai staying at Island homes, and just vegging out for an
- 1:33:47entire week. Not a care in the world watch
- 1:33:51comes off. Phone is turned off.
- 1:33:56That's it right there. That sounds like a mission.
- 1:33:59I just want the entire world to know what a ridiculously,
- 1:34:02massive Flex. All of that was, what is your
- 1:34:11astrological sign? Aries Aries.
- 1:34:18Does it match your personality in some respects?
- 1:34:23Yes. Stubbornness stubbornness
- 1:34:26absolutely. No way.
- 1:34:29No. Oh yeah, the reoccurring
- 1:34:32question. What?
- 1:34:32When is your birthday sir? March 30th?
- 1:34:38So, for those of you who dig deeper into the astrological
- 1:34:41signs understand this, that that the governor and I are both
- 1:34:45Aries, but he's like more cherries, and I'm an April
- 1:34:47Aries. And all of the subtleties
- 1:34:49between those two things are exhibited in our personalities.
- 1:34:55That's funny. Yep, the question that is
- 1:34:59reoccurring, where will you never go again, think you're the
- 1:35:03last one to get it. Utah is to Utah right now.
- 1:35:18If I can help it, I will never go to Moscow again.
- 1:35:22Oh Joe. Listen, we're going to come get
- 1:35:29me at some point. I'm sure that's so funny.
- 1:35:36Mr. Fire 11. A few places on this planet
- 1:35:41where I'm walking down the street and I'm just uneasy and
- 1:35:46happen. I mean I've Been Everywhere just
- 1:35:50saying What is your go-to TV show?
- 1:36:00It's in the world of streaming and all of that.
- 1:36:04I mean we're so far past The Cosby Show and all of that.
- 1:36:09Now that's, you know, now it's like things pop up.
- 1:36:15So, right now, my, my cheap Thrill is Moon night.
- 1:36:19I'm enjoying that show. I've heard good things.
- 1:36:22Yes, I have a funny story to fun fact.
- 1:36:26After this, what was your first? Or what would watch, or who was
- 1:36:32on your first poster? Goodwin the first poster.
- 1:36:40Right on magazine LL. Cool J.
- 1:36:45So sorry with a red kengo. Yes.
- 1:36:50And I think he had red suede, Pumas around his neck, sitting
- 1:36:55like this. Right on magazine, buddy.
- 1:36:58I may have had, I may have had that picture that and that that
- 1:37:03turned into an entire wall of just hip-hop and m.j.
- 1:37:09Wow, did you have a Blockbuster? Card in your wallet.
- 1:37:16Right now. No before at any point.
- 1:37:19Oh yeah. If you do right now, I'll be
- 1:37:22laughing. In fact, I do I bet you if I did
- 1:37:27in my garage I could find my Blockbuster card absolutes
- 1:37:30hilarious. I was I mean think about this I
- 1:37:32had a Blockbuster card up until I left Gainesville and moved to
- 1:37:36Tallahassee. I had a Blockbuster card.
- 1:37:43All right, gentlemen, your questions please. so I got, I've
- 1:37:51got a good one for you, so you can go back to any of the jobs
- 1:37:57you had before, where you going back to This is what happens
- 1:38:06when you hang around with. That's funny because I almost
- 1:38:15wrote this question down and I deleted it. that's, that's a
- 1:38:22two-fold question because On 11 situation there was an
- 1:38:31opportunity and then there's another situation where the
- 1:38:35opposite I was in the opportunity and I decided to
- 1:38:39take another one. And I was already on my way to
- 1:38:46solidifying myself in the history books of that one place.
- 1:38:51And so I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna, I'm gonna get
- 1:38:56away from hypotheticals, you know, I mean we all have been
- 1:39:03through situations like this but I feel like I could have done
- 1:39:08some amazing things in Missouri. And and sometimes you kind of
- 1:39:14have to take a step back and go, wow.
- 1:39:17Okay, you know, it's, it's you sometimes it's right in front of
- 1:39:23you sometimes, you know, it's not just that simple to have a
- 1:39:29freshman win, 60 at scc's, right?
- 1:39:33And, you know, I look back on that now and I'm like, man, I
- 1:39:37mean, it doesn't matter who was in the picture or who wasn't
- 1:39:42running or whatever, that is something that very, very few.
- 1:39:46People can say that they have on their resume.
- 1:39:50Yep. So lesson learned and and those
- 1:39:55for those out there, listen close to what I just said. so,
- 1:40:07where we going clad I want to ask you this.
- 1:40:15But it almost feels wrong because there's a very
- 1:40:18significant reason why they're why this dysfunction ultimately
- 1:40:23was happening, but I would, I would like you since we're
- 1:40:29talking about things from this past weekend and Lamar open the
- 1:40:33door with how well, Tom Jones was run.
- 1:40:39Hmm, what was the What was the most interesting screw up?
- 1:40:50Mount sac relays this weekend and there's the delay of just
- 1:40:56off the ball out. Let me jump up and get it.
- 1:41:01Bring it to look sir. Looses doesn't know what I'm
- 1:41:03talking about. So Lamar you don't know the
- 1:41:07story. Do you don't big lie, you don't
- 1:41:10know the story. So so lucious.

- 1:43:04No consequence whatsoever. And then, you can turn around
- 1:43:10and run it again on Saturday. The choice is yours.
- 1:43:15Have at it. That is how Mount sacrilege, or
- 1:43:25we know Logistics matter. Hello now, listen.
- 1:43:34So so here's, you know, my situation, my athletes are
- 1:43:39looking at me. We're seeing people hightailing
- 1:43:42it out of the warm-up area. I'm like, okay.
- 1:43:45What's going on folks? Start putting their shoes on it
- 1:43:48walking out. So my kids have already put
- 1:43:52their sweats back on everything then I find out that only three
- 1:43:57teams decided not to run guys. I might guys this is a cluster
- 1:44:05already. We are going to run this race
- 1:44:08and they're looking at me like coach like I'm like no because I
- 1:44:13knew I knew that the odds that these folks are going to come
- 1:44:19back on Saturday. Yeah Seminoles let's go ahead
- 1:44:25and run it. We might not be as hyped up as
- 1:44:28we were and we ran the race. You know, I think we got third
- 1:44:32in our heat and sure enough. The next day that four by one
- 1:44:38was a shadow. No taxes.
- 1:44:41No, I mean, it was it was nobody showed up.
- 1:44:45So to that point I'm on the opposite end, mmm-hmm because As
- 1:44:54the schedule changed prior to the announcement.
- 1:45:00They had what was put into the schedule was?
- 1:45:05And it didn't make sense to me, when it, when it was put out
- 1:45:10Friday, there were the elite four by one prelim.
- 1:45:18Mmm, You Were Meant to run on Friday.
- 1:45:22Yeah. And come back.
- 1:45:23If you made the final and run again Saturday.
- 1:45:26However, There were other for by ones on Saturday who just got
- 1:45:34put in yes, and didn't have to race on Friday.
- 1:45:37Now, in my world, the elite people should only have to run
- 1:45:42one. Run runs.
- 1:45:43Yes, right. My men's 4 by 1 which all due
- 1:45:48respect to my crew because I know some of them watch the
- 1:45:51show, they know this will not be a surprise to them, we ain't
- 1:45:54Elite. So When I see the schedule and
- 1:46:00I'm like, wait, we're only running on Saturday?
- 1:46:04Well, hell that's a problem because the beach on Saturday,
- 1:46:09So I tell my kids, I guess we're not running the four by one at
- 1:46:12Mount Sac, my girls are racing on Friday, the loud speaker
- 1:46:16comes and I'm like, so wait, so my man can run today.
- 1:46:20Yeah, the hotel. Yeah, we're home schedule.
- 1:46:23Yeah, so, I'm like, Ernie. You think we can get them up?
- 1:46:28Here is my hell? Nah.
- 1:46:32So it was this guy and we were all very happy to be back at
- 1:46:38Mount Sac. It's beautiful.
- 1:46:40Hmm. And I think the untimely and
- 1:46:45unfortunate passing of Ron kamaka.
- 1:46:47Absolutely did a lot to lead to this kind of stuff.
- 1:46:50Yeah, Ron Walker ran. He ran outside for more than 20
- 1:46:55years. Yes, it is exact.
- 1:46:56I'm certain that this will not go on in the future but it was
- 1:47:00the craziest. Yeah.
- 1:47:02I think I've ever said, I've never been a part of anything
- 1:47:05like this. How do you not know what's
- 1:47:09happening at the? In the the first event like it
- 1:47:14was lit? They literally said on the
- 1:47:15loudspeaker. I mean you can run or not run.
- 1:47:19It's kind of like whatever. What does that mean?
- 1:47:23Yeah. This that would have been
- 1:47:25solution that we've been Solutions.
- 1:47:27His head splitting open in his brain just popping out.
- 1:47:31You know. It.
- 1:47:34Oh my goodness, my ears question.
- 1:47:38Well, I always struggle when I have to ask the governor
- 1:47:42questions because he's, like, my brother.
- 1:47:44And I've asked every question on the planet in private, in most
- 1:47:47cases, you know what, I'm gonna ask Simple and complicated
- 1:47:53question at one time. Who is the best athlete you have
- 1:47:57ever competed against? Wow man you got you got Reggie
- 1:48:14Jones. Eric Walder Festus acquittal
- 1:48:17Gainey Carl Lewis Mike Conley? Yeah Devon Pedrosa.
- 1:48:24So Mike Powell. so, so that's that's Yep, it is.
- 1:48:41That's very difficult. And I say that because so, you
- 1:48:51know, from when you talk about the eyeball test watching Carl
- 1:48:59was like watching poetry it was Technically efficient, it was
- 1:49:07easy. It looked just effortless,
- 1:49:11right? But some of the things I've seen
- 1:49:16James Beckford do I mean, right? I mean, let's think about what
- 1:49:25his stat line is. Okay.
- 1:49:29Like we're talking Mike Conley never did what James Beckford
- 1:49:35did in terms of both, in terms of eight.
- 1:49:40What do you jump? 864. 86, is 64 6 is right around
- 1:49:45your PB. No, disparate rights, almost the
- 1:49:47same. But what I'm talking about is
- 1:49:53I've seen James Beckford run down the runway, check up speed
- 1:49:58up checkup. Speed up again and gently 20.
- 1:50:03And it's just like see that that's this, just not.
- 1:50:08This is not fair it. See that's not supposed to do
- 1:50:10that and Joe 17 m +. Yeah, same way.
- 1:50:15Yeah. Um, one of the by far, one of
- 1:50:18the most Carla's a goat. Let's just call a spade, a
- 1:50:25spade. It is what it is, but in terms
- 1:50:28of just raw ability and I don't think he ever truly refined
- 1:50:34himself, like, I mean, James backward, is this is one of the
- 1:50:39all-time just stupid talented kids I've ever seen in my life.
- 1:50:48Bet you didn't. I didn't, I was going to go
- 1:50:50there, did you? I thought he had a shot.
- 1:50:53I mean, James Beckford is he's top three all-time combo
- 1:50:57jumpers, yes, by PBS. Yeah.
- 1:51:04He survived, he survived another round.
- 1:51:08They just think a little bit but that's okay, too.
- 1:51:10Yeah, Solutions threw a curveball that man and I yeah,
- 1:51:17we'll keep that one in the books so many.
- 1:51:24All right, so time for heartbeat props, who do we want to
- 1:51:27recognize and lift up this week? I think sir lucious you know
- 1:51:37speaks for me as well. I'd like to keep tons of beer
- 1:51:41for Bailey in our in our prayers.
- 1:51:46Very just out of the blue situation and you know I can I'm
- 1:51:55just praying that everything goes well for her.
- 1:52:01Yeah, I know, I know we talked about it earlier but she'd Mark,
- 1:52:04we pops today as well. Yeah, she's a phenomenal young
- 1:52:06person. Young lady, that that's doing a
- 1:52:08phenomenal job and she got some health issues.
- 1:52:12So we just ask your by to keep talking ginger prayers, and
- 1:52:16we're praying for you. I'm girl you hope you get better
- 1:52:19soon. Indeed.
- 1:52:27I real quick, I'm going to do one that we've actually said
- 1:52:29before and only because I got to connect with this person.
- 1:52:34Micah Peary, I got to have a short conversation with him on
- 1:52:38the phone before bed time, the other night and it was amazingly
- 1:52:42awesome to hear the excitement in his voice to say hi.
- 1:52:46And he says, hi to the rest of the tiles.
- 1:52:49But it was it's awesome to know that we have an influence even
- 1:52:52on that young of a crowd to wear.
- 1:52:55They may not understand what they're learning, but they're
- 1:52:58learning something and they'll take it with them along the way.
- 1:53:00So, hello, mr. Mica, stop jumping off beds with
- 1:53:04your brother's, please. I'm going to be I guess somewhat
- 1:53:14selfish like I'm going to give a heartbeat props to one of my
- 1:53:19clients and an incredible young man who is doing something
- 1:53:24that's very difficult to do which is just progressing in his
- 1:53:28fledgling baseball career and my heart be props go out to one mr.
- 1:53:34Spencer Packard who is a member of the Seattle Mariners High a
- 1:53:39team the Everett Aqua Sox. Shout-out to the aqua Sox who is
- 1:53:48making a very difficult game, seemed relatively easy, and he
- 1:53:53is doing the thing. We tell little kids that do
- 1:53:55which is see ball hit ball. You know, he's he's from Arizona
- 1:54:00been open. Warm all his life he's playing
- 1:54:02in Everett Washington. I was lucky enough to go out to
- 1:54:06a game and game time. It was 55 degrees and raining.
- 1:54:13And for arizonian, that's pretty much the frozen tundra.
- 1:54:17And all he did was produced two for two, two walks, and the
- 1:54:22player of the game. So I wanted to be a little light
- 1:54:28this evening II to him, a friend of coach before Bailey's and
- 1:54:34obviously she is in my prayers. But tonight, my heart be props,
- 1:54:39go out to somebody who doesn't watch this.
