• 0:58
  Speaker 3: How you doing this morning, Teal?
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: What was going on?
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: Man? Not a whole lot? You know, you and I
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: we were talking back and forth the other day and
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: you told me about all these camps you guys were
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: having over a grid iron football time. Tell me about
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: the camps, man. You've got a number of these things
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: going on.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we usually play on about two camps per month,
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: and anybody's really not familiar what we do. We host
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: a bowl game at the end of the years for
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: seniors after their senior seasons or or overwhip. They get
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: to go to LSU Louisiana Christian University and perform in
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: front of college coaches. And we've had a pretty good
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: success and saying it's been a while guys to play
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: at the next level. And we recruit a lot of
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: the guys for the bowl game from the camps, these
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: all season camps, and that's going pretty good. We've had
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: a kid at one of our camps earlier this off season.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: He actually ran a four to nine at their camp.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: That's pretty that's pretty fast.
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's pretty fast. I mean, if you compare them
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: with everybody else in the NFL combine now probably put
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: them the four fastest, which is pretty crazy for high
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: school kid. But he I entered that camp with one
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: offer and one d one offer and now he's up
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: to sixteen after the video was posted at Settember one
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: in the forties. He's from Grant High School. AMoD zikes,
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: I think he's ranting now as a three star with bruits,
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: so he's definitely a guy who's on the ride. He
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: was at Elvis Sho's junior and day as well, so
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: he's actually on Elvis Shoes radar as well. So trying
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: to help a lot of kids the exposure and get
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: their name out there, and that was definitely a big
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: success story for us this offseason.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Absolutely. I mean that that's what you guys do over
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: there at Gridlind Football, which is why I always love
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: having you on Jason, moving from the high school ranks
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: over to the guys that are already on college campuses.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: LSU spring football last a media availability was actually yesterday,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: so that is the last we will get to see
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: of the Tigers here in the spring off twenty twenty six.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: So you know, let me ask you this. I understand
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: you've been busy with camps and stuff, but the time
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: you were able to get out there, you know, it
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: seemed like earlier in the spring practice it was really
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: tilted toward the defense, the offensive struggle the times. I mean,
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: you know that first scrimmage you and I got to
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: go to out at Tiger Stadium where the media was
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: fully involved, like the offensive looked, I mean they looked
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: flat out that. Well, they've gotten better since then, Landon
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Clark looks more comfortable. Who's on long streets taking a
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: big step forward as well. So like in your opinion, like, yes,
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: those guys are essentially battling for QB two, if you will.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: How big of a deal is it that LSU doesn't
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: have Sam Levitt out there in the spring?
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean I asked Wayne Kiffin about that was
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: the first time really had really be available with him,
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: and he was talking about that. Really, I was asking
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: about chemistry, you know, with the team, and how important
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: is that to really install this early, and he said, really,
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: I mean spring is really more about fundamentals, if anything,
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: just trying to really start over because he's starting with
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: the whole brand new team basically, so you really really
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: putting in the fundamentals. So when you go to ball camp,
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: I mean that's really more about you know, the summertime,
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: that's really more about chemistry. And you talked about Trendad
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: Chambliss that he really didn't come over until the summer.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: So I don't think it's such a big deal that
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: Sam Levitt has not been getting the snaps in spring
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: hasn't getten the reps. I think it's like Laane Kiffin said,
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: I think it benefits we both parties. I mean, Sam
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: gets a chance that he'll continue to heal and recover
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: from surgery, and he also ha the other two quarterbacks
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: see what they can do and get them a lot
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: of reps in Kiffin's scheme.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm actually with you, Jason from the start. My
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: opinion has always kind of been I don't think it's
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: a huge deal of Levitt's not out there. He's He's
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: a guy that's played a lot of college football, right,
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: he could take the mental reps. He can still throw
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: to receivers off to the side. I mean, he's just
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: not going to do any full contact drills, which I mean,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: let's be honest, Clark and long Street aren't going full
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: contact either, So I don't think it's that big of
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: a deal. But as far as outside of the quarterback position,
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: like we've seen long Street and Land and Clark both
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: make some good plays, both make some mistakes, but like
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: top standouts for you, maybe guys you're hearing a lot
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: of buzz about guys you've seen in person, who are
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: some top standouts for you? For the Tigers here in
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: the spring.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: Really, I look at the secondary, I mean I think
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: they really won won the spring for me. I mean
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: Tamarcus Cooley, you know, he was really good. He was
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: pretty solid last year, but really he's had himself an
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: outstanding spring and uh, every time we're out there, he's
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: making plays. He made every time you're out there, he's
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: making picks. And he made a pick in that scrimmage too.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: But Todd Bennifield, TJ Woindewan's making plays. You know what
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Dj Pickett can do. Man, this secondary has a chance
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: to be really special this year. And you know, try
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: and get back to l U Dbu and in the
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: Shawn Spears kind of playing that star role. Man, the
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: secondary is looking really solid. Dylan Jones at the running
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: back position. I mean he's a guy that really, you know,
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: just stood out, you know, just seeing him for the
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: first time. And he's taking a lot more reps with
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: the Ones and uh when he walk int as far
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: as a receiver, I thought he's had a really good
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: spring as well. So a lot of new faces, definitely
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: a lot to really get used to with a whole
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: new team, you know, a whole new regime when they're
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: laying kipping, but weal a lot of guys.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Really like, yeah, I'm glad you mentioned the secondary. Jay.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: It's like, you know, I've only got to go out
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: there two or three times, just because normally we are
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: on air on this show when unless she's out there practicing.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: But you know, from what I've been able to see
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: when I've been out there, Secondary kind of looks like
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: the best group on this team right now. And that's
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: why I was so excited when a guy like TDD
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: Benfield came in. My thought was, Okay, it may not
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: be the biggest need for you in safety, but it
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: allows the show and spears to go down in the star.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: It just gives you so much versatility. An another veteran
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: body back there, love what I've seen from the secondary,
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: So okay, maybe outside of them that kind of leads
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: into the next thing, like a position group you're excited
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: to watch in twenty twenty six. Like we know, we
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: know secondary kind of seems like the most polished group
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: right now, but is there a group that intrigued you
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: going into the season.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I really like, really like the linebackers as well.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: Maybe talking just kind of staying on that side of
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: the football too. I mean you heard coach Kiffin talk
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: about it. But the defense is gonna be a defensive
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: team and we starting off and you see it, right,
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: I mean you see the secondary of the linebackers. You
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: know when what Weeks is is fully read to go.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: I know he's back with the team the last last
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: week at spring, but when he's fully out there at
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: one hundred percent, you know what kind of linebacker he is.
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: They get TJ.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: Dotterery.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: I thought he was all over the field making plays
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: two that's that scrimmage us all and you know, pair
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: him with von Keys. I like that group. And you
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: know the Titans too. I think the Titian's been pretty
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: sneaky as well because we know about trade as Green,
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: but Malcott Tomas making some plays too, so uh, I
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: mean as far as a good one to two points.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: So that's definitely a position group. Obviously everybody knows about
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: trade as Green, but as as a whole with the
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: that position group, something that we not sleep on.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: All Right, We've been pretty positive so far through this interview,
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: were we're gonna go a little bit more towards the
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: negative side. So if spring basically wrapped up up. Now,
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: what is your biggest concern for this team heading into
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: the vault.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: Well, with just seeing them in the spring, I mean,
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: I feel like the offensive line, I mean, there's only
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: one way to go up. But just from what I
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: saw just from the scrimmage, I mean I still think
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: that's a work in progress, and but you feel like
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: you have some pieces though. I mean obviously with Jordan,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: I left tack but yeah, Jordan step but yeah, I
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: mean there's just a lot of things you can really
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: try to see boat border onside a good spring, but
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: you just don't really know. I know, the defensive line
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: really gave offensive line a lot of fits from the
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: scrimmage I was at, and just really the overall depth, Taylor,
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: to be honest with you, on the defensive side, I
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: really love the starters the defensive A front two. I
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: think you just I like the starters there. I just
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: think depth is kind of the biggest thing really all
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: three levels. So it's really important I think for this
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: defense really to stay healthy. So I think it's just
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: trying to really continue to developed. The depth defensively is
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: my thing.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: You know, this is always an underrated portion off Spring
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: practice because it's not the flashiest spot. But to me,
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: one of Brian Kelly's biggest achilles heels when he was
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: here was the special teams union and the punning game
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: in general. Like you know, when we've been out there
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: a couple of scrimmages, we've got to see the punt
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: union a little bit. I don't both guys kind of
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: struggled with consistency. Actually thought Hayden Craig was probably the
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: better of the two out there. Obviously the transfer coming in.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: We've seen Scott stars that hit some long ones. We've
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: seen him miss some long ones. What's gonna be your
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: thought on special teams? Like I kind of thought that
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: was a big weakness under Brian Kelly.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: I agree and just and really through the scrimmage, U
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: saw like that was a little bit of an issue.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: I mean we talked about the inconsistency they are punting
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: but kicking. I mean we talked about the kicker transfer
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: from ropinsof Scott, I mean he missed. I think he
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: attempted like five kick and missed like three. So and
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: that's like no rush going at the special teams. So
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: I think special teams is definitely a concern leaving the
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: spring as well. I mean as far as that too,
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: we don't really get to see a whole lot of
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: that during practice because you're so focused. You only have
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: maybe twenty minutes the first couple of weeks to really
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: look at everything. But just seeing the scrimmage and seeing
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: how how that was orchestrated, I can see that those
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: special teams is a concern as we ahead the fall.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, Jason, as we approach the summer months,
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: you know it's gonna be list season, as we say,
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: you know, projection season. As we as we head into
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: SEC media days, a lot of talk about like let's
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: use win total as a playoffs are bust, Like in
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: your opinion, what record like what would be considered a
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: failure for Kiffing here in your one, I.
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: Would say in year one, obviously, anything less than eight wins.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, I mean, that's that would be that that's
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: the bottom, right, that's the bottom right. I mean right
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: now you're kind of looking at them through spring, and
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: you know, you don't really incorporate Sam eleven because you
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: have ever we've seen Sam with with the team, Uh,
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: you probably think that this is you know, with so
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: many new offensive pieces and that's really gonna real. We're
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: going to tell the tail of this season, Taylor. I mean,
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: I think the defense is going to be as good
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: as can be across the across the country. This defense
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: is going to keep this team in games. The question
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: is with all these new pieces on offense, how does
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: this offense gel? I mean that that is gonna be
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: that's going to really determine the season for l Shoot,
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: how these all these new pieces gel will determine the season? So,
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: I mean, I think going in and you're looking at
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: a nine and I think nine and three team. I mean,
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: this is this is a also a very tough schedule
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: too off the bat first year, so you're looking at
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: the at the nine maybe ten wins range is what
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: I'm looking at.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: R Jay, Before we get you out of here. What
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: you guys got going on? A great iron?
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we have a camp coming up to tomorrow. Actually,
• 12:01

  Speaker 3: with you, Jacobaster, Matt fled Landre all out. Today they
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: left me by my lonesome. You know, that's what I
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: got to take, three days off, a little bit of
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: me time, little little baby moon with me and the
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: wife's last vacation before the baby comes. And what did
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: they do? They have a remote yesterday, so I'm sitting
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: in studio and then today, well we got Jordan and Braxton.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: We're hanging out. We're having a good time. But uh well,
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: guys leave me my first day back. It's a little
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: did they didn't spend the whole week with me, which
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: I get, I totally understand.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: No, no, it's Friday, man, come on, man, Yeah.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: We book, We're good, Vibes are high. We're gonna fil
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: draft where we're good to go. Speaking of NFL Draft, look,
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: we've talked a lot of draft right Like, we broke
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: down in detail the Jordan Tyson pig at eight. Overall,
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: we talked about what the Saints we're gonna do with
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: two and three, as far as the second and third round,
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: corner edge guard. I think all of that is in
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: play for New Orleans here in day two. What I
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: want to do right now is go back and look
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: at the first round as a whole. Maybe some winners
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: and losers. Every year, somebody comes out looking like a
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: genius for a trade they made. Somebody comes out kind
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: of looking like a donkey. That's kind of where we're at.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Every year you see winners and losers of round one.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: I got a lot, so I'm gonna let these two
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: guys go first. Jordan, give me a winner, all.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Right, winner?
• 17:33
  Speaker 9: Obviously, what I said earlier man Cowboys getting Caleb Downs.
• 17:35
  Speaker 9: Getting Caleb Downs to fall two at eleven, basically you
• 17:38
  Speaker 9: didn't have to make no moves. You got one of
• 17:39
  Speaker 9: the best players in the draft, a guy who I think,
• 17:42
  Speaker 9: in my eyes, is gonna be a perennial pro. Forget
• 17:45
  Speaker 9: Pro Bowl, All Pro. Thing's on change Dallas defense.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: They need that.
• 17:49
  Speaker 9: Dallas definitely needs some defense, how especially in the secondary.
• 17:52
  Speaker 9: I'll say, Caleb Downs is my first winner of the night.
• 17:54
  Speaker 9: So Cowboys, I'm in total and that edge rush of
• 17:57
  Speaker 9: y'all got.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: To whether it was winner or loser. I'm glad you
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: brought them up. I didn't include them. I didn't want
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: people to being one, oh you picked. I didn't want
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: to include. There's been a lot of people asking me, like, hey,
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: what do you think about the Cowboys trading up one
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: spot for a player that was probably going to be
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: there at twelve. First off, I don't think he was
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: going to be there at twelve. Miami loved Caleb Downs.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: There were a lot of people that had had Caleb
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: Down to mock that. The Dolphins also, I followed the Cowboys,
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: you know, decently close a little bit. You know, they
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: loved a man sword Lane, and I think that was
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: going to be the pick if he was going to
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: be there at twelve. So if you're in the Cowboys position,
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: like look, I criticized Jerry Jones probably more than anyone
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: in this.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: State, as you should, though he deserves it.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: I don't necessarily hate moving up one spot because all
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: you did you gave up two fifth round picks both
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: this year you had two fifth rounders. You gave him
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: up to move up one spot.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Who cares.
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: But in the eyes of the Cowboys, let's say you
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: loved Mansword de Laane and Caleb Downs, you already missed
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: out on one because the Chiefs jumped up. They were aggressive,
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: they grabbed Aga and sword Lane. You missed out on that. Yeah,
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: you're sitting there thinking, Okay, there's a chain. The Dolphins
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: don't take Caleb Bownce. There's a chance that they do.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: I can give up two fifth round picks, move up
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: one spot, take a player that I know is a
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: Day one starter. I don't actually hate it, Like normally
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: when I see a team move up one spot, I'm like,
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: come on, what do you do? Like for the Dolphins,
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: I don't know why they traded the pick. I wouldn't
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: have traded the pick. I would have stayed right where
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I was and taken Caleb downs. They didn't, though, they
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: moved back. They don't even go safety at twelve overall.
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: But I don't like you know in the move. I'm
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: like Jerry, you're jumping up one spot. But again, he
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: gave up two fifth round picks. You got a guy
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: that you know is instantly going to make at least
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: some part of your defense better.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: Yes, I'm okay with.
• 19:36
  Speaker 9: Yes, I'm okay with I didn't follow that back with
• 19:39
  Speaker 9: Malachi Lawrence. Yeah, pretty good.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: Malaca Lawrence got some juice to him. I mean Malaca Lawrence,
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: big physical guy off the edge. He can play the run,
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: he can play the pass. Yeah. I like that as
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: a win. I like Broxton first round winner.
• 19:50
  Speaker 10: Yeah, so I got the Chiefs. I like how they
• 19:53
  Speaker 10: traded up and got monster Land. They got there hopefully
• 19:57
  Speaker 10: no one corner, and then they see they got twenty
• 20:01
  Speaker 10: ninth bake.
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: They got Peter Woods.
• 20:02
  Speaker 10: I like that too, just because I know you have artists,
• 20:07
  Speaker 10: pretty stead defensive line. But Peter is a guy who
• 20:11
  Speaker 10: can really I guess put you in, like help you
• 20:14
  Speaker 10: with the run defense. He's a big body exactly, and
• 20:21
  Speaker 10: with them losing McDuffie and who else was it Watson?
• 20:24
  Speaker 10: I really think Monster can really help fulfill that spot
• 20:27
  Speaker 10: in the secondary.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: So love that as well. And you had to jump
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: to six because there was a chance Washington takes them.
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: At seven, there's a chance to Saint Stigma and eight.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: You're sitting there at nine. You had to jump to six.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: You don't give up a ton draft capital to jump
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: up to six. You desperately needed a corner. You just
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: traded Trent McDuffie to the Rams, and you lost Jayalen
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: Watson his counterparty. You lost both of your starting corners
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: actually ironically both of them with the Los Angeles Rams.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: Now you had to have a corner that was a
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: glary need for this team. You got the best corner
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: in the draft. Love that pick. My winner actually happened
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: before the draft even started. Okay, I think the Giants
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: trading Dexter Lawrence and getting two top ten picks. They
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: got the number ten pick from the Bengals. I think
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: that's a win. And yes they take Rvil reason. Some
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: people were looking at that as kind of a head scratcher, saying, hey,
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: you got Brian Burns. You got Cavon Thibadeau and you
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: have Abdul Carter. Why are you gonna take rvil Reese.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: I understand that, like maybe the player fit wise need wise,
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: but you've got a versatile defensive player in the top
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: five and you were able to get that second pick.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: With the tenth pick, they take Francis Mauinoa, who a
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: lot of people thought could be the best all around
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: offensive lineman in this draft because of his ability to
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: play guard and tackle. They need help on the O line.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: Jackson Darer got hit a lot last year. They gotta
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: have some running room for Kim Skataboom. You gotta protect
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: the future of that franchise. I actually like that pick
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: rid of Dexter Lawrence. He wanted out of there. You
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: got a top ten pick four him.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I do love that.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: On the flip side of that, and then also Brax
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: and I have the Chiefs written down and as my
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: as my second winner, I wrote down two winners. I
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: do have them written down for it. I'll go ahead
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: and kick us off with the losers because it kind
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: of ties in directly to the Giants. I know they
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: needed help on defense. I'm not trading the tenth overall
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: pick for Dexter Lawrence. If I'm the Cincinnati Bengals, I
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: did not like that. I love the move for the Giants,
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: which means I hate the move for the Bengals. Like
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: you needed edge more than interior anyways, Like Dexter Lawrence
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: is not an ed drusher, you still have trouble there.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: You also need a ton like you need secondary help,
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: you need ed drusher help, you need offensive line help.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: You had a top ten pick, boom, Now you have
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: no first round pick, and sure you pick up Dexter Lawrence.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: Like good players still twenty eight years old, but like,
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: let's be honest, you go look statistically, he's coming off
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: the worst season of his NFL career. He had half
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: a sack, lowest than his NFL career, thirty one tackles combined,
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: lowest than his NFL career. He did have four tackles
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: for a loss. That's that's what he did. And he
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: played an all seventeen games, so it's not like he
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: was hurt in his production dip because he wasn't on
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: the field. Thirty one total tackles, half a sack, four
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: tackles for a lass. She traded a top ten pick
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: for that gap. I'm not saying Dexter Lawrence has lost
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: the step. He's only twenty eight years old. He makes
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: Cincinnati's defense better. There is no question about he does.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: And maybe you're looking at ten.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: And put him over the top, right, And maybe you're looking.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: At ten you're like, okay, we also need a guy
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: like a man sword de Lane. We couldn't find anybody
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: that wanted to trade up with us. Let's go ahead
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: and trade for a guy that makes your defense better.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: I can understand that it's just trading for an interior
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: defensive lineman. But don't think you had bigger needs elsewhere
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: for a guy coming off the worst season of his career.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: I just tends a little rich for me. Give it up,
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: Give it up. If you're Cincinnati and you're sitting at
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: nineteen twenty, good with it, no problem. You have a
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: chance to get an elite player in the end the
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: top ten on a rookie contract, right on a rookie contract.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: You didn't do it, Dexter Lawrence. Also, big contract attached.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: That's what That's what I was confused about.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: That I don't I don't love that pick or that
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: decision to trade that tenth pick for Dexter Lawrence. Either
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: you guys got any losers.
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: I would say my loser would have to be the
• 24:16
  Speaker 9: Steelers man, just the optics behind them calling Makai Lemon,
• 24:20
  Speaker 9: just for the Eagles to come and jump ahead of them.
• 24:22
  Speaker 9: I mean, yeah, I guess they could use tackle help.
• 24:24
  Speaker 9: But the Steelers, you don't have a quarterback. You have
• 24:27
  Speaker 9: Metcalf and.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Didn't get Pittman. So they got Pittman now too. Yeah
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: they got Pittman, all right.
• 24:31
  Speaker 9: But it's just like just the optic, the good you
• 24:33
  Speaker 9: got two good receivers with nobody like. I don't I
• 24:36
  Speaker 9: don't know what exactly is going on in Pittsburgh. It's
• 24:39
  Speaker 9: just it's confusing me because I have a friend as
• 24:42
  Speaker 9: a Steelers fan, and he was confused of him taking
• 24:43
  Speaker 9: a tackle. So I don't know what's going on in
• 24:46
  Speaker 9: Pittsburgh right now, especially because it's Aaron Rodgers playing football.
• 24:49
  Speaker 9: We're going on the round two or three, and you
• 24:51
  Speaker 9: don't have like yeah, so it's like are they taking
• 24:54
  Speaker 9: a quarterback today or like what's going on? We literally
• 24:57
  Speaker 9: have no idea, I guess, but we might be sitting
• 24:59
  Speaker 9: here Monday being like, yeah, Gary Nuttmeyers of Pittsburgh Steeler, I.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: Mean you might actually be like, I mean that that
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: that's a legitimate possibility. I'll smier Carson back literally these
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: guys like, dude, we're.
• 25:11
  Speaker 9: Going to season with becon is too old? Even about
• 25:15
  Speaker 9: the old thing because I'm quarterbacks quarterbacks old.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: Guess they played the quarterback position.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'm tired of this.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: I have gone on this spield. People probably tired of
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: hearing him. I have gone on this field about Tyler Shark.
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: Tyler Shark was drafted at twenty six years old. Correct, Yes,
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: if he is your starting quarterback for the next ten years,
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: you nailed the pick and he's thirty six years old.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: And I don't care if a quarterback is old coming
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: down of the draft. They play well into their thirties.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Now, doesn't matter how Stafford right now thirty eight.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: Yes, Stafford just won the MVP last year. You have
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: your starting quarterback potentially for the next six years and
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: the next ten years, and he's thirty six years old
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: at that point. At that point, it doesn't matter.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: You had your franchise ten years at a NFL career.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: That's exactly blessing.
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: Exactly a blessing any other position, receiver, running back, corner,
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: I get it. The show flight is not as long.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: Quarterback be as old as you want be thirty years
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: old coming out of the draft. If you're gonna do,
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: I'm taking you, and you know what, You're gonna be
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: my quarterback for the next seven years and I'm gonna
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: win a lot of games.
• 26:08
  Speaker 10: I don't think he's a quarterback that can run the
• 26:11
  Speaker 10: show when he has people to give the ball to.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Back.
• 26:18
  Speaker 10: If he's a right system, he'll be fine. But if
• 26:21
  Speaker 10: he is, the more he has to run the show.
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: They they ain't got their staring quarterback. And this year's
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: drafting Pittsburgh, So.
• 26:28
  Speaker 9: We'll tell you know. McCarthy was the was the Cowboys
• 26:30
  Speaker 9: head coach. And you're a Cowboys fan. Can you feel
• 26:32
  Speaker 9: like McCarthy can elevate like a nut smile or like
• 26:35
  Speaker 9: a Carson Becacine that type of quarterback coach.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: Or I like McCarthy and the guy who normally sits here,
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: Keen is today he could speak on Mike McCarthy a
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: lot better than me. I know how Matt feels about
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy. That told me he likes Mike McCarthy, so
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna take his word for it. I liked McCarthy.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: I don't think McCarthy was a problem in Dallas, Like
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: maybe a problem, not the main problem. I didn't hate
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: the shake up, but he kind of took the fall
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: for a lot of things in Dallas. Like I'm I
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: like Mike McCarthy. I just I don't. I don't know
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: what Pittsburgh is gonna do. They're gonna have the bag
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers to come back again at this point. But
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: you know, you guys were mentioning the Jets. You guys
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: like what the Jets did?
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: No bras and likes. I don't, I don't, I do not.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: Yeahon Taylor, if it.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: Was another team, I would love it. But you got
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: Kenyon Sadik, you grab Omar Cooper Jr. You have three
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: first round picks in total. It was awesome you traded
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: back up to get that third first round pick. My
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: problem is, look at what you have, Like, yes, you
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: have Mason Taylor, but Kenyon Side can play on the
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: outside like he's he's a hybrid. Anyways, when I look
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: at the Jets, you now have Garrett Wilson, Omar Cooper, Junior,
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: Kenyon Sadik, Mason Taylor, Breise Hall awesome excellent playmakers and
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: Geno freaking Smith at quarterback with no one to get
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: them the ball. You drafted to win now, you don't
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: have the quarterback to win now. You traded future draft
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: capital up to get that third first round pick. Again,
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: that's that's like a team that is drafting to win now,
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: but you're not in win now. Moodie of the New
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: York Jets. I like the picks, I like the players.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: I don't like that the Jets were the ones making
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: those picks because you're not ready to contend, and that's
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: what a contending team does.
• 28:19
  Speaker 9: I just think they're in a tank for arts, man
• 28:21
  Speaker 9: like I think they'll full Like you don't pick up
• 28:23
  Speaker 9: Gino Smith, who just blessed the Raiders with the number
• 28:26
  Speaker 9: one pick and thinking that is gonna flip a switch
• 28:28
  Speaker 9: in you're the Jets. It's not like you're going into
• 28:29
  Speaker 9: the steel like if Gino went to the Steelers, okay,
• 28:31
  Speaker 9: like maybe he might have a little bit of juice
• 28:33
  Speaker 9: in the tank, but just that putting on that Jets
• 28:35
  Speaker 9: jersey just brings your overall down about fifty percent.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Like you just already you dreamed. I mean, you think
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: they're gonna have draft a quarterback probably today?
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, probably today? What tomorrow?
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: Also, I hate to just stay his negative Nancy. Apparently
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: I hated the draft. I got two more losers here.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: I only really had two winners. I got two more losers.
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: First one is the Years and the Cardinals. Oh yeah,
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: talked about this a little bit in the first segment.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: I think Jeremiah loves Awesome. I'm not as necessarily one
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: of those people that's like, you can't draft to running
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: back in the first round if it's your final piece,
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: And like, Okay, when the Lions did this with Jamiir Gibbs,
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: they already had a David Montgomery to take a little
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: bit of the pressure off of him. They had Jared Goff,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: they had am and Aral Saint Brown, you had the
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: O line fix. You're like, I need one more weapon,
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: one more playmaker, a versatile guy like a Jamier Gibbs.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: I'm good with it. And they've won a lot of
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: games with Jamier Gibbs. They've been real, real close to
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: make it a run there in Detroit. You are so
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: far away from contending if you're Arizona, you need help
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: all across the offensive line. Jacoby Brissett's your quarterback, which
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: means he's probably not your long term answer. I think
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: Marvin Harrison Junior is underachieved. I think you need help
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: outside your defensive line. Like, you don't really have a
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: premier pass rusher at this point, and you drafted a
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: running back third overall great player. He doesn't have an
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: offensive line to lean on. What's Jacoby Brissette going to do?
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, he was actually decent last year, but can
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: that continue? Your defense is a mess. You're gonna be
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: playing from behind him a lot of games, so that
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: you're in a negative game script. How much is Jeremiah
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: Love actually even going to get the ball again? Love
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: the player, hate the team that made the pick? Like that,
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: just that doesn't make any sense to me. I'm the
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: Arizona Cardinals. I'm either trading back or I'm I'm grabbing
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: ed rusher offensive line right there, and you can say, oh,
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: that's high. Look on r VL Reeves was there for
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: the taking. That's a guy you could have grabbed like
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: Caleb Downs was there. That's a guy that's gonna make
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: your defense better. I just Jeremiah Love, I think was
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: a pick two years from now for Arizon. Give him
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: year three. Maybe that's a team you can build around him.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: I just I don't think running back is ever your
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: first piece. If you're drafting them in the first round,
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: it's your last piece five. If you're like, hey, a
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: Bjon Robinson, a Jamir Gibbs, a Saquon can really put
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: me over the top one offense and everything else is
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: in place, take it other than that, I just I
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: don't like it, especially a team like the Cardinals probably
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: playing from behind in a lot of games. Also, the
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: Tennessee Typs like that to me, that screamed panic pick
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: you grabbed Dwandel Robbin in the offseason. You actually have
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: some decent young receivers, Like, yeah, I'm all about getting
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: kim Ward some more weapons. But if I personally believe
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: the Titans pandaged because they were going to take Jeremiah Love,
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: didn't think the Cardinals were going to do it, I'm
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: either going Love. If not, I'm gonna show up that
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: defense a little bit more. I mean, I think you
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: did a good job in the secondary. Need a little
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: bit of help on defensive line. Maybe help out Jeffrey
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: Simmons try to free him up a little bit more.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: I don't love what they did with carnal tate one.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: I think that's too high. Also, I just gut feeling,
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: I don't think that was the pick that they wanted
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: to make. I think they panicked and they were like,
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: you know what, we'll just go value here. See we
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: can get something out of carnal Tatega and good player
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: don't like to fit there with Tennessee. All right, we're
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: gonna take a quick time out. We get back talk
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: a little bit more spring practice. Some things that I
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: think need to be a lot better for LSU football
• 31:50

• 33:28
  Speaker 3: Welcome back in hour number two. Here on a Friday
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: edition of Off the Bench, Taylor Sharp is sitting in
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: for Jacob Eser and Matt Flinn, who will be back
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: both of them on Monday. Look, we have talked a
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: lot of NFL Draft. We've talked a little bit of
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: spring football. Real quick here, we got a few minutes
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: before we need to go to break ran long. In
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: that last segment of my apologies there, I want to
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: mention a little bit of spring practice. So yesterday on Thursday,
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: was the last day of media availability for spring practice.
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: So that's it. Not really gonna get to see anything
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: until fall camp rolls around. And I was unable to
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: make it out there because look a lot of times,
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: like during the week, I can go to the Saturday scrimmages.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: During the week, it's it's hunting Matt like they're out
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: there because we're they let you in at like ninety five.
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: We don't get done un till ten. Oh, she really
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: doesn't like when you show up late. I'm not going
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: to do that. I'm not gonna be that guy. So,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: you know, it's been limited what I could see during
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: the week. But they have a pretty detailed practice report,
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: the Final Spring Practice Report. You can read it on
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: Louisiana Sports dot Net. They've done a great job all
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: spring long keeping you updated and you know, over overall
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: takeaway like if if you want to go read the
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: detailed report of the one on ones the eleven on eleven,
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: you can certainly do that. My overall takeaway is, I
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: think when spring started, Land and Clark kind of seemed
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: like the more ready of the two quarterbacks, kind of
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: seemed like the more polished. And then you know, when
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: we all went out there during that first scrimmage in
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: Tiger Stadium, I thought Who's on Long Street had the
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: better day? However, I thought both really struggle. Really since
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: that point, going forward, you've seen more and more who
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: saw on Long Street running with the Ones. It was
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: almost exclusively Land to Clark for the first like week,
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: week and a half of sprint, Like the first two
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: days was kind of split reps. Then it was Clark
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: for like a week strip and after that you've seen
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: more and more who's on Long Street with the Ones. Now,
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: keep in mind this is the battle for QB two,
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: because make no mistake about it, Sam Levitt is going
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: to be your starting quarterback when you kick things off
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: against Clemson coming up here in the opener, like that's
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: that is going to happen. But Long Street maybe his
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: passed Land to Clark. I think there's a role for
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: Clark because I think he's such a good runner. I
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: mean on the inside run. Yesterday Matt reports that he
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: had a sixty yard touchdown run on inside run, like
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: and that's that's something that it's not out of the
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: ordinary for a guy like land of Clark. The scrimmages
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: we've been able to go to, he's he's busted some
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: runs there as well. And I understand you're gonna say, well,
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: hell Taylor, they can't touch him. Of course, he's busting
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: long runs. Yeah, but I mean, like before he's even touched,
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: he's nine ten yards down the field, So the guy
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: could run, make no mistake about it. But you know,
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: long Street a little bit more consistent here the past
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: few weeks. It'll be interesting to see, you know, if
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: by any chance Sam Levitt does go down in the season,
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: who goes in. Is it Clark who started a lot
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: more games at a little bit of a lower level
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: like Elon, or is it whusaw on long Street, the
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: former five star, even though he only played in four
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: games last year USC so a lot less experience, but
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: he has done it at a higher level of football.
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: So it'll be interesting to see, Like as an insurance
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: policy to Sam Levitt, who Lane Kiffin would actually turn
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: to That's something that to be watching, you know, kind
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: of as we get into fall camp and obviously as
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: the season goes along. But the big thing for me,
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: the special teams has got to be a lot better.
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: Jason jern On earlier, and look, in my opinion, that
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: was one of the big achilles heels of the Brian Kelly.
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: I don't think he ever figured out his special teams.
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: Like Damian Ramos was steady, he was consistent as your
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: field goal kicker. Outside of that, I think you've struggled
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: your returning game. I mean, you know, we were begging
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: for somebody to just go back there and fair catch.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: It had not dropped the ball Kelly's last two years here.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's how bad it got. Kelly's first two
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: years here. And then punter's been been very shaky. You've
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: kind of had a turn style of punters going through
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: this program. All of them have been shaky. Grant Chadwick
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: does return. You bring in Hayden Craig from Florida. They
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: were both punting. You know, we got to see a
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: little bit of the punts in both of the scrimmages.
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: And while I thought both of them were shaky, yell out.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: Hayden Craig was probably a little bit better than Grant Chadwick.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: I mean, and it's it's kind of splitting hairs. I
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: just I thought his good kicks were better. That's what
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: I should say both of them. Both them have their
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: struggles with consistence the other other Craig's good punts were
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: better than that of Grant Chadwick. Also, punt return needs
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: to be stable. Like on this practice report, special teams
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: is mentioned, and look, the punt returners that we've seen
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: back there has been kind of the same. Jason Brown,
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: Trey Wilson, Winston Watkins, and Dylan Jones, Jabari Mack. Those
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: five guys have been kind of rotting from what I've seen. Again,
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: it's been limited on my part. Jason Brown's maybe been
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: the most consistent. Like Matt and Hunt put in this
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: article of note, Wilson muffed another punt. He's done that
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: four of the five times in media availability. If you're
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: gonna fumble the punch, you can't be back there. Think
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: about two years ago, we were so excited when Aaron
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: Anderson and Savion Thomas joined this program because we were like,
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: hey can you get any sort of thing in the
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: return game. And you know, at the end of the year,
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: Aaron Anderson had a kickoff return against Oklahoma, Savion Thomas
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: had won in the bowl game against Baylor. Then you
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: paired that with bringing in a Barrying Brown his past year.
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: Now it wasn't necessarily bad, Like Baron Brown had the
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: kickoff return for a touchdown against Houston in the bowl game,
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: and you know there were two or three times Zavion
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: Thomas looked like he was close to breaking one. It
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: needs to be, however, this offense is gonna be good
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: enough to where it's not gonna have to rely on
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: punt returning. In my opinion, like I kind of think
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: it's just can you get a steady guy back there
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: that's going to catch the ball, that knows when to
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: call for a fair catch, knows when to try to
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: return it. That's all I ask for. Like last year,
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: you wanted so much more out of the return game
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: that it almost felt like they underachieved, even if they
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: didn't like raw numbers wise, because your offense was so
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: stagnant that you needed a defensive turnover, you needed a
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: big play in the return game to kind of flip
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: the field, get you and plus territory. Help out this
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: stagnant offense. With Lane Kiffin coming in, I don't really
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: see that being an issue because I think Kiffin's gonna
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: have a really good offense, not a hot take or anything.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: He's had a good offense everywhere he's been. So can
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: you just get a little bit of stability back there
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: in the returning game. If you can do that, I
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: think this team's gonna put up a lot of points. Look,
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: whether it's Levit, whether it's Clark, whether it's long Street,
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: these guys are getting more and more comfortable in this
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: offense as spring went along, Like first GrimAge I went to,
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: I came back up in here Saturday and I was like, yeah,
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: it was ugly. The offense was terrible. Well, since that
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: point on, they they've gotten a little bit better. Each
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: time the reports have come out from spring practice. It's hey,
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: the offense looks a little bit better. They're yelling a
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: little bit. That's without your starting quarterback even in there.
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: All I ask on this pervent turn unit, don't fumble
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: the ball. That's it. If you make smart decisions, you're
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: sure handed, you're back there.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: I'm good with it.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: I just don't need anything disastrous, because again I think
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: this offense is going to put up a lot of points.
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: All right, we're going to take a quick time out.
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: We get back. We're wrapping up our number two. Then
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: in hour three we'll have Devin snow aka hold de Mayo.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: He'll jump on with us. We'll look at LSU Tigers
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: remaining in the NFL draft, where when they can maybe
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: potentially hear their name called, what kind of pro prospects
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: they are. And then at nine thirty we'll get a
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: baseball preview in Mississippi State LSU out there in Starkville.
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: That's all coming up. You're on, off the bench, off

• 41:28
  Speaker 7: their owners are involved in it. It's not this big company.
• 41:30
  Speaker 7: We used to work with a company that was so corporate.
• 41:33
  Speaker 7: I had to call an eight hundred number. Like the
• 41:35
  Speaker 7: people that came out there, they didn't know my name. Like,

  Speaker 3: We'll talk about the remaining LSU Tigers in the draft

  Speaker 3: in Starkville for the baseball which we will break down
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: at nine thirty. Just a few more minutes here before break.
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: We got two guys back there that are just itching
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: to go. I mean I heard them this morning arguing
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: about this before the show we even started. We got Jordan,
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: We got Braxton. The dudes loved basketball. Braxton is such
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: a good athlete. He blew out his knee last night
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: in a pickup game. I mean, these guys are these
• 43:23
  Speaker 3: guys are all about ball, like they are the definition
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: of ball is life. Guys. We got some NBA playoff serieses,
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: some of them, in my opinion, a little bit surprising.
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: Maybe not even you know where the series stands, but
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: how the games have gone so far. Are the Denver
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: Nuggets cooked?
• 43:42
  Speaker 9: There are definitely cooking. They're in deep doodo. You don't
• 43:45
  Speaker 9: you don't respond like that. After Jaden McDaniels calls out
• 43:48
  Speaker 9: the whole team, basically says we're gonna go out them,
• 43:50
  Speaker 9: Jop's candefend Jamal Murray Candefan calls out the whole team
• 43:54
  Speaker 9: and then on back of that, he drops twenty one
• 43:56
  Speaker 9: to ten and they smoke you, guys.
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: They it was. It was like a thirty five point
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: lead at halftime.
• 44:01
  Speaker 9: Literally smoked them. So I think the Nuggets are definitely
• 44:04
  Speaker 9: in deep doodo. That's That's never a good sign. That's
• 44:06
  Speaker 9: never a good sign for a championship caliber team to
• 44:09
  Speaker 9: respond like that.
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: Keep in mind, like you got smoked last night about
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: the Timberwolves and Anthony Edwards scored seventeen points, six of
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: fifteen shooting. Literally, Anthony Edwards wasn't good last night and
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: he got just two for eight from three, and the
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: Timberwolves handled that game. Anthony Edwards isn't going to do
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: that night in a night out anthy Otheritord is gonna
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: give you twenty five thirty next game, and he's not
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: even healthy right now, and you're really gonna be in troump.
• 44:30
  Speaker 10: If you would have asked me who were the highest
• 44:31
  Speaker 10: scorer for the timb Wolves last night, if I didn't
• 44:33
  Speaker 10: watch the game, I would have said easy, Like I
• 44:36
  Speaker 10: could say j mc daniels, I could say and I
• 44:38
  Speaker 10: could say Julish Randall.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: But obviously it's perennial All Star au de soon move. Obviously, Yeah,
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: I mean obviously everybody had that on their bingo card.
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: He was gonna lead them in scoring. H Look, Timberwolves
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: lead that series two games to one right now, but
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: it doesn't look great. And then another team that people
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: had high expectations were This is a team that won
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: fifty three games in the regular season. Stop me if
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: you've heard those one before. The Knicks are probably not
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: going to live up to everyone's expectations. Shocker, Some things
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: in life never change. They looked really good in Game one,
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: but the Hawks have came back got game two. In
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: Game three, they narrowly get it last night one oh
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: nine to one O A CJ. McCollum. Actually pretty big
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: game for the Hawks. So games, are the Knicks done?
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: Nicks are definitely.
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: I don't think they're not done. I think I think
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: the I think out of the two teams that Knicks
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: have a better chance of winning that series one. I
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: think the Knicks are a more talented team than the Hawks.
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: They're not playing up to the standard right now. Nicks
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: have a roster. The Nuggets are gonna match up nightmare
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: right now. Like we we just talked about that. So
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: it'll be interesting to watch a lot of teams that
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: people thought were maybe finals contenders could be out here
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: pretty early here in the NBA playoffs. All right, that's
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: going to do it for hour number two coming up.
• 45:53
