Speaker 3: These moments, there's also something we don't do. We don't
0:36
Speaker 3: act based on how they look, who they love, where
0:41
Speaker 3: they're from, or what they believe. We just act because

1:26
Speaker 8: Here on a Tuesday afternoon on the Zone eleven fifty
1:30
Speaker 8: am ninety three point seven FM. Kayleb Rapley here filling
1:33
Speaker 8: in for Chip as the summer rolls on.
1:38
Speaker 7: And we still have.
1:40
Speaker 8: SEC Media Days going on. Day two has concluded halfway through.
1:46
Speaker 8: Heard some great voices today. Today's group of coaches included
1:54
Speaker 8: Shane Beemer of the South Carolina game Cocks. He's in
1:58
Speaker 8: year six, which is, you know, kind of surprising when
2:02
Speaker 8: you think about it doesn't feel like that long ago
2:04
Speaker 8: that he was hired, but he's been there. I think
2:06
Speaker 8: he said he's now the third longest tenured coach in
2:10
Speaker 8: the SEC, which is pretty wild. We'd gotten used to
2:14
Speaker 8: having some elder statesmen around, like Nick Saban, but a
2:18
Speaker 8: lot of those guys have retired or been fired or
2:23
Speaker 8: let go for many reasons. So it's pretty much Kirby Smart,
2:30
Speaker 8: Shane Bieber, and I think Clark Lee is the other
2:33
Speaker 8: one that's been there for a while. I guess Steve
2:36
Speaker 8: Sarkesian has been at Texas for a while, but some
2:39
Speaker 8: of that was in the Big twelve, so I don't
2:40
Speaker 8: know if that really counts. Leading off today at SEC
2:44
Speaker 8: Media Days was Kirby Smart of the Georgia Bulldogs, and
2:46
Speaker 8: we will hear from him in the next segment, so
2:49
Speaker 8: stay tuned for that. We've got a lot of coach
2:52
Speaker 8: audio for you to hear. We're gonna hear from Kirby Smart,
2:57
Speaker 8: first year head coach of the Auburn Tigers, Alex Golish,
3:01
Speaker 8: and coach Shane Biemer, as well again Caleb Rapley here
3:07
Speaker 8: filling in for Chip Chip Howard Sports Talk on the Zone.
3:11
Speaker 8: Before we get into all of the SEC football preseason hype,
3:15
Speaker 8: I want to talk a little bit of baseball. Any
3:18
Speaker 8: All that have here heard me before on here know
3:20
Speaker 8: that I am a big baseball guy, whether it's Astros
3:23
Speaker 8: or Aggie baseball. And I came across a Triple A
3:29
Speaker 8: starting lineup on Twitter earlier before the show started that
3:32
Speaker 8: just had me absolutely baffled. So the Atlanta Breys Triple
3:36
Speaker 8: A team is the Gwinnett Stripers, and Ronald the Cunya
3:42
Speaker 8: Junior is there on a rehab assignment right now, so
3:45
Speaker 8: he's leading off for them tonight playing right field, but
3:48
Speaker 8: also in the lineup for them batting second. The shortstop
3:52
Speaker 8: Ha Song Kim, formerly of the San Diego Padres major leaguer.
3:56
Speaker 7: For three or four years.
3:57
Speaker 8: I think he's rehabing, not one hundred sure they might
4:00
Speaker 8: have just sent him down. Batting third is Carlos Santana,
4:03
Speaker 8: the first baseman, not the guitarist, longtime first baseman for
4:09
Speaker 8: the Cleveland Indian Slash Guardians and a lot of other
4:13
Speaker 8: teams as well. He's, you know, one of the big
4:16
Speaker 8: on base machines that kind of really really benefited from
4:21
Speaker 8: the whole moneyball mindset. But he's just hanging out in
4:26
Speaker 8: Triple A with the Stripers along with Rowdy Tlez, another
4:30
Speaker 8: longtime major leaguer. He's dhing tonight, and then Andrew McCutcheon
4:34
Speaker 8: is playing left field and batting sixth. So I'm not
4:38
Speaker 8: really sure what the Iowa Cubs pitching staff is going
4:41
Speaker 8: to make of this when they have to go up
4:43
Speaker 8: against all of these big league bats, but good luck
4:47
Speaker 8: to them because they're gonna need it. Six thirty five tonight,
4:50
Speaker 8: the Cubs take on the Stripers in.
4:52
Speaker 7: Gwinnett, Georgia. I believe that's Georgia, so that's just wild
4:56
Speaker 7: to me.
4:57
Speaker 8: The Astros finally, bro they're losing streak, and yes it
5:03
Speaker 8: was only four games, but it felt like a month.
5:06
Speaker 8: They got the eight to five win over the Marlins
5:09
Speaker 8: last night. In I think this was the second series
5:15
Speaker 8: of this home stand for the Astros, after getting swept
5:17
Speaker 8: by the Orioles at home, which was that was rough,
5:22
Speaker 8: but eight to five win over the Marlins, which you know,
5:25
Speaker 8: normally you'd say all the Marlins is the bottom theater team,
5:27
Speaker 8: but they're you know, in the playoffs right now. They're
5:29
Speaker 8: fifty two and forty nine now after the loss to
5:31
Speaker 8: the Astros. It was the first start back for Renel Blanco.
5:36
Speaker 8: I think it was just four hundred and twenty nine
5:38
Speaker 8: days is the number since the last time he was
5:41
Speaker 8: on a big league mound, so really great to see
5:44
Speaker 8: him back. A little bit of a rough start for him,
5:46
Speaker 8: but you know, when it's your first time pitching in
5:50
Speaker 8: the big leagues and over a year, you can't really
5:53
Speaker 8: expect too much. He went four and two thirds innings,
5:57
Speaker 8: only two hits, but those were both home runs, walks
6:00
Speaker 8: eight strikeouts. Ended up giving up four earned runs, but
6:06
Speaker 8: you know, kept the Astros in the game for long
6:08
Speaker 8: enough that the bullpen was able to lock it down
6:10
Speaker 8: and take it to the finish. In Yell, Delo Santos
6:14
Speaker 8: got the win. He was the first out of the
6:16
Speaker 8: pen and inning in a third no runs, two strikeouts,
6:19
Speaker 8: and then Steven Okert, Brian abre You and Josh Hater
6:23
Speaker 8: with the seventh, eighth and ninth innings. Hater did give
6:27
Speaker 8: up one run and I guess it wasn't a safe
6:30
Speaker 8: situation because it was eight to four when he came
6:32
Speaker 8: in the game, but you know, still closed it down.
6:37
Speaker 8: The offense was pretty much carried by Jeremy Pena and
6:42
Speaker 8: yard On Alvarez in the top two spots in the lineup.
6:45
Speaker 8: Pania with a grand slam in the second inning to
6:50
Speaker 8: give the Astros that early lead, and yard On Alvarez
6:55
Speaker 8: with two homers of his own numbers thirty two and
6:58
Speaker 8: thirty three on the season. Yordon leading the American League
7:05
Speaker 8: in each of the Triple Crown stats. Those are home
7:10
Speaker 8: runs he has thirty three and that is tied for
7:12
Speaker 8: the league in all of baseball batting average, He's hitting
7:16
Speaker 8: three twenty four, which is first in the AL, second
7:20
Speaker 8: in MLB behind Otto Lopez of the Marlins, and then
7:24
Speaker 8: seventy five RBIs is first in the AL, second in
7:29
Speaker 8: Major League Baseball by only one RBI to Jordan Walker
7:32
Speaker 8: of the Cardinals and absolutely insane season for Jordon this
7:39
Speaker 8: this year, he just continues to, I mean really be
7:45
Speaker 8: the only reason the Astros are anywhere close to the playoffs.
7:49
Speaker 8: Without him, I think we probably would be one of
7:52
Speaker 8: the worst teams in the league right now. A one
7:56
Speaker 8: dot zero eight to three OPS.
8:00
Speaker 7: No Astro.
8:01
Speaker 8: According to the Athletic, no Astro since two thousand and eight,
8:05
Speaker 8: has ever finished their first one hundred games in a
8:07
Speaker 8: season with a batting average higher than three hundred, and
8:10
Speaker 8: on base percentage higher than four thirty and an OPS
8:14
Speaker 8: higher than one thousand. Until Jordan Alvarez has drawn more
8:20
Speaker 8: intentional walks by himself than twenty six teams. He has
8:25
Speaker 8: been intentionally walked sixteen times sixteen. This is getting to
8:32
Speaker 8: be Barry Bond's territory. He's five ahead of the next
8:37
Speaker 8: most intentional walks by a single player this season.
8:40
Speaker 7: That's shoeo Tiny with eleven sixteen intentional walks.
8:45
Speaker 8: And if I'm a pitcher facing the Astros, I don't
8:48
Speaker 8: know why you would ever pitch to Jordon. Nobody else
8:51
Speaker 8: in the lineup has shown anything anywhere close to what
8:54
Speaker 8: he's done this year. Panya has looked pretty good as
8:57
Speaker 8: of late. Christ Walkers had solid power numbers, but his
9:02
Speaker 8: bat to ball luck and batting average has kind of
9:07
Speaker 8: fallen off over the last couple months, so I don't
9:10
Speaker 8: really know why anybody is still pitching to jord On.
9:13
Speaker 8: He has thirty three homers through one hundred games. That's
9:16
Speaker 8: video game numbers right there. Very very special year for Yordon.
9:25
Speaker 8: I mentioned Ronelle Blanco coming off of the sixty day
9:28
Speaker 8: injured list to make his first start. Bennett Susa was
9:31
Speaker 8: also activated yesterday, So the Astros sent down Raynell Delgado
9:36
Speaker 8: and Brian King down to Sugarland, the Triple A team
9:41
Speaker 8: and the Brian King one kind of.
9:42
Speaker 7: Confused me a little bit.
9:44
Speaker 8: And I know that sometimes you just send down whoever
9:47
Speaker 8: still has minor league options so that you don't have
9:49
Speaker 8: to cut them. But King had been one of the
9:51
Speaker 8: most reliable relievers we've had this season, one of the
9:55
Speaker 8: few reliable relievers.
9:57
Speaker 7: We've had this season, to be honest.
9:59
Speaker 8: He had through forty five innings this year forty two appearances,
10:05
Speaker 8: only struck out thirty five, So not great strikeout numbers,
10:08
Speaker 8: but a three four zero era for King, which puts
10:12
Speaker 8: him near the top of the bullpen. Now, his last
10:15
Speaker 8: seven games have been pretty rough. Seven appearances, eight innings,
10:19
Speaker 8: eight runs, zero in two record, so I guess they're.
10:24
Speaker 7: Just sending him down.
10:27
Speaker 8: Maybe just get his head right, go down to Triple A,
10:30
Speaker 8: have some clean outings, and then I'm sure they'll bring
10:32
Speaker 8: him back up soon, just because he has been so
10:35
Speaker 8: good throughout his career with the Astros, to be honest,
10:37
Speaker 8: and he has a career two point nine to one RA,
10:40
Speaker 8: one hundred and thirty nine innings across three seasons, all
10:44
Speaker 8: with the Astros, only twenty nine years old, and he's
10:48
Speaker 8: somebody that you know, you don't really hear a lot about.
10:50
Speaker 8: I think he's mostly just because he's not really been
10:54
Speaker 8: used that much in high leverage situations except for last
10:57
Speaker 8: season when the Astros obviously weren't near as relevant, so
11:02
Speaker 8: people forget how many high leverage situations he was used in.
11:06
Speaker 8: He ended up with twenty seven holds and two saves
11:09
Speaker 8: two seven eight eer and in sixty eight innings last year.
11:13
Speaker 8: So he's been, you know, pretty reliable throughout his Astro's tenure,
11:19
Speaker 8: and I hope that we get him back up soon.
11:22
Speaker 8: King's one of those guys that kind of just snuck
11:25
Speaker 8: into the league. He was drafted in twenty nineteen by
11:28
Speaker 8: the Cubs in the thirtieth round. That's a round that
11:31
Speaker 8: doesn't even exist anymore. The MLB only goes to twenty
11:34
Speaker 8: rounds now So, but I'm sure he will be brought
11:37
Speaker 8: up soon. Just sent down yesterday. We will see what
11:43
Speaker 8: happens there. Trade deadline is almost here. It's just another
11:48
Speaker 8: couple of weeks before the August third trade deadline, and
11:54
Speaker 8: rumors are starting to heat up. Rusty and I talked
11:57
Speaker 8: about it yesterday. He wants Luisa Rise on his team.
12:00
Speaker 8: I want him on my team. Personally, there are three
12:03
Speaker 8: active players in the MLB right now with a career
12:06
Speaker 8: batting average over three hundred, and two of them are
12:09
Speaker 8: on the Astros, Josel Tub and your Don Alvarez. The
12:12
Speaker 8: other one is Arias, So I would love for us
12:14
Speaker 8: to acquire another left handed bat and go ahead and
12:18
Speaker 8: have all of the players with the career batting average
12:23
Speaker 8: over three hundred. That'd be pretty cool, and Arias would
12:25
Speaker 8: be a really, really good ad. I'm not one hundred
12:29
Speaker 8: percent sure how he would fit in Positionally, he's been
12:33
Speaker 8: playing second base this year for the Giants and played
12:35
Speaker 8: really good defense at second base, and.
12:38
Speaker 7: Obviously that's where Josel Tube plays.
12:40
Speaker 8: So I don't know if this would if we acquired him,
12:43
Speaker 8: involve Altuve going to the outfield or maybe a Rise
12:49
Speaker 8: going to the outfield. I've heard that thrown around a
12:50
Speaker 8: little bit. He will be a free agent at the
12:53
Speaker 8: end of the season. He's only twenty nine. He's only
12:56
Speaker 8: owed four million dollars for the remainder of the year
13:00
Speaker 8: and three twenty six batting average overall this season, but
13:04
Speaker 8: since May twenty seventh that number is three thirty seven,
13:07
Speaker 8: so he's been really solid over his last forty ish games.
13:11
Speaker 7: He's on pace.
13:12
Speaker 8: For his third career two hundred hit season, which is
13:15
Speaker 8: not something you say very often in this modern era
13:18
Speaker 8: of baseball. He's probably the best pure bat to ball
13:22
Speaker 8: skills player in the MLB right now, and has been for.
13:25
Speaker 7: A few years now.
13:28
Speaker 8: Another guy that I'm pretty interested in and the Astros
13:32
Speaker 8: should be if they are serious about adding at the deadline,
13:37
Speaker 8: is Jake McCarthy of the Rockies, and that's a left
13:40
Speaker 8: handed bat, left handed outfielder. He plays mostly center field.
13:44
Speaker 8: That would be a perfect fit for the Astros if
13:47
Speaker 8: they can pull it off. But he does still have
13:49
Speaker 8: two more years of control, so I think the Rockies
13:53
Speaker 8: probably will have a pretty high asking price, but he's
13:56
Speaker 8: been really, really solid this year.
13:58
Speaker 7: I think this is pretty much a career year for him.
14:00
Speaker 8: Him ten homers, fifty five RBIs eight six zero ops
14:05
Speaker 8: in eighty six games, and just in the last month
14:08
Speaker 8: he's hit six of those homers and has an OPS
14:10
Speaker 8: over one thousand. So he's really hot right now as well.
14:13
Speaker 8: So trade stock is definitely going to be at an
14:15
Speaker 8: all time high for him. But if the Astros want
14:19
Speaker 8: to add at the deadline, and Dana Brown has said
14:21
Speaker 8: that they do, I think McCarthy would be a really
14:24
Speaker 8: good fit. And I don't know if he'd be I
14:27
Speaker 8: don't think he'd be that expensive. But the Astros outfield
14:32
Speaker 8: depth has been pretty much non existent this year right now.
14:35
Speaker 8: The starters or we can just you know, look at
14:38
Speaker 8: the example of yesterday's game, we've had We've had some
14:45
Speaker 8: really interesting, really interesting outfield alignments this year. We've we've
14:51
Speaker 8: played a lot of natural infielders out there, like Bryce Matthews.
14:55
Speaker 8: We've played some a lot of glove first guys out
14:58
Speaker 8: there like Jake Myers. Yes, the outfielders were Taylor Tremmel,
15:02
Speaker 8: Zach Dezenzo, another natural infielder, and then Cam Smith came
15:08
Speaker 8: in for Dezenzo late in the game, and the center
15:10
Speaker 8: fielder was Lucas Spence, who was just called up. I
15:13
Speaker 8: think it was five days ago now. So he's had
15:15
Speaker 8: a total of fourteen major league at bats and three hits,
15:20
Speaker 8: and I don't think Spence was one of our top prospects.
15:22
Speaker 7: He's been playing center field.
15:24
Speaker 8: I think he's pretty solid defensively, but we really don't
15:27
Speaker 8: know what his bat's going to be like, especially since
15:30
Speaker 8: it's only his fourth career major league game.
15:34
Speaker 7: We will see where that goes.
15:36
Speaker 8: But yeah, Jake McCarthy I think would be the I
15:38
Speaker 8: think he's pretty much the number one name I have
15:41
Speaker 8: on my list of wants for the trade deadline for
15:45
Speaker 8: the Astros that are realistic anyway. I mean, obviously you'd
15:48
Speaker 8: love to have a Hunter Goodman or some of those
15:52
Speaker 8: other big names like Trek Schuebel, but as far as
15:55
Speaker 8: realistic options, I think McCarthy would be a really good fit.
15:58
Speaker 8: And then one more MLB story before we get to
16:03
Speaker 8: our first break. The Boston Red Sox have been on
16:07
Speaker 8: an absolute tear, a fourteen game winning streak. They are
16:13
Speaker 8: only one away from tying the record or tying their
16:18
Speaker 8: franchise record of fifteen, which was back in nineteen forty
16:21
Speaker 8: six when they won the Al Pennant, and last night
16:25
Speaker 8: was another electric victory for them. Caleb Durban hit a
16:30
Speaker 8: solo homer in the bottom of the eighth to snap
16:32
Speaker 8: a five to five tie, and the Red Sox ended
16:36
Speaker 8: up walking down that victory six to five over the Orioles.
16:40
Speaker 7: The MLB has seen just seven.
16:43
Speaker 8: Win streaks of fifteen or more games in a single
16:46
Speaker 8: season in this expansion era, which is since nineteen sixty one.
16:50
Speaker 8: The most recent of those streaks was in twenty twenty one,
16:53
Speaker 8: when the Cardinals won seventeen in a row. So the
16:56
Speaker 8: Red Sox are looking to do something that's only been
16:58
Speaker 8: done once this decade, and only seven times in.
17:01
Speaker 7: The last sixty five years.
17:04
Speaker 8: And they've just felt like a team of destiny over
17:06
Speaker 8: the last honestly, the last almost month now June twenty fourth,
17:12
Speaker 8: so nearly a month ago, Boston was thirty two and
17:15
Speaker 8: forty six, fifteen and a half games behind in the
17:18
Speaker 8: ALS East and six games out of a wildcard last
17:22
Speaker 8: place in.
17:23
Speaker 7: The American League.
17:25
Speaker 8: Today, they are fifty one and forty eight, only six
17:29
Speaker 8: games behind the Rays for the division and one and
17:31
Speaker 8: a half games ahead of the Rangers for the final
17:34
Speaker 8: wildcard spot. Nineteen and two in their last twenty one games.
17:40
Speaker 8: This is one of the best hot streaks we've seen
17:42
Speaker 8: in baseball in a long time. It goes obviously beyond
17:47
Speaker 8: the fourteen game winning streak. If you look at the
17:49
Speaker 8: twenty one games, it's nineteen wins, two losses. They are
17:53
Speaker 8: firmly back in the playoff picture. And keep in mind
17:56
Speaker 8: they fired Alex Cora like right before this hot streak started.
18:00
Speaker 8: I think it was back in May that they did that.
18:02
Speaker 8: Interim manager Chad Tracy is looking really good right now.
18:06
Speaker 8: Be interested to see if he gets to keep that
18:10
Speaker 8: job full time for next season instead of being the
18:14
Speaker 8: interim I'll be very very interested to see where that
18:17
Speaker 8: ends up if the Red Sox do indeed make the
18:20
Speaker 8: playoffs and sustain this these good vibes that they have
18:23
Speaker 8: right now. But with that, we're gonna take our first
18:25
Speaker 8: break when we come back. We're going to hear what
18:27
Speaker 8: Kirby Smart, head coach of the Georgia Bulldogs, had to
18:30
Speaker 8: say at SEC Media Days. But right now it's time
18:34
Speaker 8: for this from Chad Jones Law.
18:38
Speaker 5: Because life is so much more than just sports Jickles Pickles,
18:42
Speaker 5: I'm not Peoples John Chip Powered Evenings forty six on
18:47
Speaker 5: his own.
18:48
Speaker 9: I'm Chad Jones. We know sports injuries hurt, and so
18:51
Speaker 9: do injuries from car res. But you didn't sign up
18:53
Speaker 9: to being a carreck with someone who wasn't paying attention.
18:56

19:26
Speaker 10: teams are eager to thank and eager to go to
19:28

19:34
Speaker 10: I recognize that, but I also want to say, you

22:02
Speaker 13: we've had over the last two years has BEEN kJ
22:04
Speaker 13: bowlden on, defense and he's done a really good. JOB
22:06
Speaker 13: i think back to a play he made on The
22:09
Speaker 13: texas overtime game that people don't talk about where they
22:12
Speaker 13: ran a cross screen to the back and he came
22:14
Speaker 13: out of the. Top one of the most instinctive Plays
22:16
Speaker 13: i've seen a player, make and he made that as
22:18
Speaker 13: a true. Freshman So i'm.
22:19
Speaker 12: Excited. NOW i know that's not your, question.
22:21
Speaker 13: Because you want guys that aren't household, names and those
22:24
Speaker 13: guys have got to earn, it and you earn it
22:26
Speaker 13: by what you do in the, fall not what you
22:27
Speaker 13: do in the. Spring So i'm excited to see those guys.
22:30
Speaker 12: Grow, Coach we'll go to right down the Center Aisle,
22:33
Speaker 12: Barry Barry trammell toss the.
22:35
Speaker 14: World they'll have my hide In. Oklahoma IF i don't
22:38
Speaker 14: expound on the thunder. Stuff two, Questions how does a
22:42
Speaker 14: football coach At georgia have time to even know what
22:44
Speaker 14: somebody like The thunder's?
22:46
Speaker 12: Doing number? Two are their?
22:47
Speaker 14: Similarities and that you had a powerhouse going sort of
22:51
Speaker 14: that college football was hit with a rampant change three
22:54
Speaker 14: or four years. Ago you've stayed, great but your dominance
22:58
Speaker 14: has slipped just because of so much. Parody how difficult
23:02
Speaker 14: is it to maintain what you want to do with
23:05
Speaker 14: the changing landscape of what's going on with, Parody, Vanderbilt
23:09
Speaker 14: Old Miss Texas, tech all kinds Of New, indiana all
23:12
Speaker 14: kinds of new people are able to compete at a
23:14
Speaker 14: very high.
23:14
Speaker 12: LEVEL i think it's great for the, sport you.
23:17
Speaker 13: KNOW i think having everybody competitive and having everybody to
23:19
Speaker 13: have more guys can be invited to the party and
23:23
Speaker 13: get to the, party mainly through the portal in a
23:26
Speaker 13: lot of, ways BECAUSE i, mean let's be, honest there's
23:27
Speaker 13: some footprints in some states that don't support their program
23:31
Speaker 13: through their own. State they have to go find other
23:33
Speaker 13: ways to do it. Right they've got to be great
23:35
Speaker 13: in the. Portal they've got to be able to recruit,
23:36
Speaker 13: nationally and we're very fortunate in our state that we
23:39
Speaker 13: can still stay within our. Footprint but each, team it
23:42
Speaker 13: finds a way it seems to Be, okay they did
23:45
Speaker 13: it through, Age, okay they did it through quarterback, play
23:48
Speaker 13: they did. It everybody finds a way to what's their
23:51
Speaker 13: niche and that makes the stories more interesting for you. Guys,
23:54
Speaker 13: right it's not a one team dominant. Program it's surely.
23:58
Speaker 13: Everybody and then to your question about The Oklahoma City
24:01
Speaker 13: thunder and the abilities that we study successful programs all the,
24:03
Speaker 13: time so if you're not studying how other people are
24:06
Speaker 13: doing it and you're just fixated on your own team
24:08
Speaker 13: and your own, ROSTER i think you're missing. Out you,
24:11
Speaker 13: know we're always trying to grow in our. Program we
24:13
Speaker 13: don't want to stay the, Same so you need to
24:15
Speaker 13: study how other people are doing it and maybe the
24:18
Speaker 13: ways they're doing it and creating roles for. Players it's
24:21
Speaker 13: very unique what The thunder was, doing especially when they
24:24
Speaker 13: won the, championship in terms of leading in so many,
24:26
Speaker 13: categories the most importantly, selflessness and that's what we try to.
24:30
Speaker 12: Emulates we'll go in the section in front of, me
24:33
Speaker 12: right in the. Middle, kirk it's coming from your, Right.
24:37
Speaker 7: Kirk bowls from The Houston.
24:39
Speaker 15: Chronicle, kirby you talked, about you, know want to talk
24:42
Speaker 15: about how to. Win are y'all a little bit of
24:45
Speaker 15: the exception or outlier and the way y'all stress the,
24:48
Speaker 15: DEFENSE a more running. Game it's such a passing game
24:53
Speaker 15: trend now in college football running back head and won
24:55
Speaker 15: The heisman Since Derrick henry in twenty. Fifteen do you
24:58
Speaker 15: feel like in some ways you are an outlier against
25:01
Speaker 15: that Trop.
25:03
Speaker 13: Those would be your, words not, mine BECAUSE i like
25:06
Speaker 13: to think that we play good, defense we play good. Offense,
25:08
Speaker 13: statistically over the last five, years we've got the second
25:11
Speaker 13: most explosive plays in all of college, football and that's on. Offense,
25:14
Speaker 13: so you, KNOW i think there's a, misnomer probably because
25:17
Speaker 13: of the POSITION i coach in my history and the defensive,
25:21
Speaker 13: philosophy that it is like, This, oh, okay we're just
25:24
Speaker 13: going to run, now we believe you have to run
25:26
Speaker 13: the ball in the fourth. Quarter there were probably four
25:28
Speaker 13: games last year that if we didn't run the ball
25:30
Speaker 13: for a first down and they knew we were going
25:32
Speaker 13: to run the ball because of the clock, management that
25:34
Speaker 13: you lose games or you give them another. Possession and
25:38
Speaker 13: we're going to Be our identity is going to be.
25:40
Speaker 13: Physical you can be physical in the past, game you
25:42
Speaker 13: can be physical on the. Perimeter we pride ourselves in
25:44
Speaker 13: those things as. Well BUT i don't think that we're
25:47
Speaker 13: an anomaly or an. Exception we just follow the rule
25:51
Speaker 13: of the book that when you have to run the,
25:53
Speaker 13: ball you have to be able to run the ball in.
25:55
Speaker 12: Games there's going to come a time.
25:56
Speaker 13: Where every team has to Do that doesn't mean you
25:59
Speaker 13: can't be, explosive and we certainly need to be more.
26:01
Speaker 12: Explosive but when you.
26:02
Speaker 13: Do a five year study for year, study you look
26:04
Speaker 13: at the, Numbers george has been in the top five
26:06
Speaker 13: of all those. Categories SO i like to think that
26:09
Speaker 13: our success has come from both, offense, defense and special.
26:12
Speaker 12: Teams we'll go back down that CENTER ol five rows
26:15
Speaker 12: back COACH.
26:17
Speaker 7: Nicolasa wog And, Athens.
26:18
Speaker 16: Georgia has there been a moment this, offseason whether on
26:21
Speaker 16: the field or off the, field that you think is
26:23
Speaker 16: a reflection of this team as a.
26:24
Speaker 13: WHOLE i wouldn't say one, Moment, NO i would say
26:30
Speaker 13: a collective group of. Practices you, know we have fifteen
26:33
Speaker 13: tough practices in the. Spring we have really good offseason,
26:36
Speaker 13: workouts conditioning early in the. Morning i'm proud of what
26:40
Speaker 13: those guys and leaders have stepped forward and put out.
26:42
Speaker 12: There we've got a lot of.
26:43
Speaker 13: Guys in new, positions a lot of guys on defense
26:45
Speaker 13: having to step up and take on new, roles with
26:48
Speaker 13: a couple of defensive players that left that were maybe bigger.
26:51
Speaker 13: PERSONALITIES i think, offensively we've got a good core group
26:54
Speaker 13: back and the best part is the continuity we were
26:57
Speaker 13: able to keep through our retention and people say We're
27:00
Speaker 13: are you just a retention team and you don't.
27:01
Speaker 12: Believe in the?
27:02
Speaker 13: Portal, Absolutely our most explosive offensive player last year was
27:05
Speaker 13: out of the. Portal our second most explosive player on
27:07
Speaker 13: offense was out of the. Portal so we still have
27:11
Speaker 13: guys that we. Need we still believe in the high school.
27:14
Speaker 13: PHILOSOPHY i think when you look across the state Of
27:16
Speaker 13: georgia and you look across THE nfl per, capita you,
27:20
Speaker 13: know the state Of georgia is by far and away
27:23
Speaker 13: the greatest producer OF nfl, talent in my, opinion in
27:25
Speaker 13: really a five hour radius of our, university which includes
27:29
Speaker 13: some other. States SO i don't think we have to
27:31
Speaker 13: go outside that all the time to get it until
27:33
Speaker 13: we need a special player or we have a special
27:36
Speaker 13: player who has.
27:36
Speaker 12: Interest we'll go over to our far right section on
27:39
Speaker 12: the front.
27:40

29:55
Speaker 13: very unique, scheduling looking forward to the new format and
30:00

30:09
Speaker 12: patrick if you go back and get that on the
30:11
Speaker 12: right hand side on the.
30:12
Speaker 19: Eye, hey, Coach Eddie pel's FROM. AP i know you
30:16
Speaker 19: said you don't want to talk about the, landscape but
30:20
Speaker 19: given the, landscape how that impacts program building and? Predictability
30:27
Speaker 19: does that make your what does that do to your?
30:30
Speaker 12: JOB i guess.
30:31
Speaker 13: YEAH i want to be, Clear i'm not avoiding the
30:34
Speaker 13: talk about. Landscape i'm only saying THAT i think it's
30:37
Speaker 13: the Position i'm. In it's the veteran sec remaining. COACH
30:41
Speaker 13: i don't mind talking or speaking to. It All i'm
30:44
Speaker 13: saying is at events like, this it eats the air
30:47
Speaker 13: and takes away from what actually.
30:49
Speaker 12: Wins and loses football.
30:50
Speaker 13: GAMES i respect the fact that the landscape, matters AND
30:53
Speaker 13: i do think that it matters the position that the
30:56
Speaker 13: senior veteran coaches across the country. Take, okay now with,
30:59
Speaker 13: THAT i need that question.
31:01
Speaker 19: Again, well talk about the landscape however you, want but
31:08
Speaker 19: how does it impact a head coach's ability to produce
31:15
Speaker 19: a program, basically you, know especially when you don't know
31:18
Speaker 19: what's going to be going on in three years or three. Months,
31:23
Speaker 19: YEAH i don't know.
31:23
Speaker 7: That we knew that ten years.
31:25
Speaker 13: Ago we didn't know what was going to be going
31:26
Speaker 13: on three it's changing more, rapid, yes, okay but what
31:30
Speaker 13: wins football game has not. Changed has the role of
31:33
Speaker 13: the head coach changed if you want it to it
31:35
Speaker 13: Can you can be involved in, offense defense and coaching
31:39
Speaker 13: and remove yourself from all this changing. Landscape or you
31:42
Speaker 13: can dive over here and spend your time over here
31:45
Speaker 13: in the changing landscape and try to navigate it better
31:47
Speaker 13: and let your coaches. Coach each coach has to decide
31:50
Speaker 13: within their own program what they want a major in
31:54
Speaker 13: because you cannot sit. Back let's call it eight years,
31:56
Speaker 13: ago six years, ago pre, COVID i would say and
32:01
Speaker 13: say That i'm just gonna do. This, Okay i'm gonna
32:04
Speaker 13: focus on this and just do. This you've got to
32:06
Speaker 13: be able to wear multiple, hats more THAN i ever. Imagined,
32:09
Speaker 13: okay but you got to choose which hats you want
32:11
Speaker 13: to wear the, best and maybe that's dictated by the
32:14
Speaker 13: strength of your, staff, right like you've got really strong
32:17
Speaker 13: continuity and coaches AND x and o's and schemes and.
32:19
Speaker 13: Recruiters then you go focus on the relationships with the,
32:21
Speaker 13: players you go focus on maybe raising money and doing
32:24
Speaker 13: things with. Donors you have to choose what you want
32:27
Speaker 13: to AND i think that's the strength of our. Program
32:29
Speaker 13: i'm not afraid to change what we need to change
32:33
Speaker 13: to be. Successful and IF i need to spend more
32:35
Speaker 13: time with one player because he plays, harder and less
32:37
Speaker 13: time with the offensive staff or the offensive, coordinator the
32:40
Speaker 13: defensive staff or the, Especially i'm willing to do. THAT
32:43
Speaker 13: i don't have an ego that says you have to
32:44
Speaker 13: do it my. WAY i want to hear how you
32:46
Speaker 13: want to do, it and let's find the best. Way
32:48
Speaker 13: but WHAT i am worried about is what kind of
32:50
Speaker 13: product do we put on the field in terms of, physicality,
32:53
Speaker 13: toughness all those. Things how we practice that's not negotiables for.
32:57
Speaker 13: Me the landscape piece over here on the. Side and
33:01
Speaker 13: if you get really lost and caught up in landscape
33:03
Speaker 13: and you're constantly arguing and fussing and complaining and tweeting
33:07
Speaker 13: and doing all, that guess what you're not worried about what,
33:10
Speaker 13: matters and we're gonna worry about what matters first at our,
33:13
Speaker 13: place all.
33:14
Speaker 8: Right that Was Kirby, smart the head coach of The Georgia,
33:17
Speaker 8: bulldogs the longest tenured coach in THE. Sec right, now
33:22
Speaker 8: his bulldog's in a really great. SPOT i personally have
33:27
Speaker 8: them picked as my choice to win THE. Sec we'll
33:31
Speaker 8: get into that a little bit more in the second.

Speaker 8: Kirby smart what he had to say AT Sec Media,
36:28

36:32
Speaker 8: the coaching security spectrum to the. Other Shane biemer is
36:36
Speaker 8: going to be our next listen in here in the next.
36:37
Speaker 8: Segment but before we get to, THAT i just want
36:40
Speaker 8: to take a look at some of these rumors have
36:44
Speaker 8: been saying that this is a make or break season
36:47
Speaker 8: For Shane. Beemer Andy staples ofon three released his list
36:53
Speaker 8: of coaches who are on the hot seat for the
36:54
Speaker 8: twenty twenty sixth. Season Lincoln riley at Usc Bill belichick
36:59
Speaker 8: A North, Carolina bill O'Brien At Boston, College Mike norvel
37:03
Speaker 8: At Florida, State Luke fickle At, Wisconsin Mike loxley At,
37:07
Speaker 8: Maryland David randa At, Baylor Scott saderfield At, cincinnati And
37:11
Speaker 8: Shane beemer At South. Carolina how how Can beemer save his?
37:18
Speaker 8: Job what does he have to do this year to
37:20
Speaker 8: not get? Fired SO i want to look at what
37:23
Speaker 8: happened With Will, muschamp the Last South carolina head coach Before.
37:27
Speaker 8: Beamer so he was hired at the following the twenty fifteen.
37:32
Speaker 8: Season Must champ was announced as the thirty fourth head
37:34
Speaker 8: coach That. December he inherited a team that went three
37:38
Speaker 8: and nine in twenty. Fifteen he took them to A
37:41
Speaker 8: bowl game six and six and then lost The Birmingham.
37:45
Speaker 8: Bowl but you, know that's definitely an improvement from three
37:49
Speaker 8: and nine and then two straight winning. Seasons twenty seventeen twenty,
37:53
Speaker 8: eighteen Mush champ led the Game cocks to a nine
37:55
Speaker 8: and four record and then a seven and six, record
37:58
Speaker 8: and that was kind of the start of the. Downfall
38:00
Speaker 8: they won The Outback bowl in twenty, seventeen but then
38:02
Speaker 8: lost The Belk bowl in twenty. Eighteen twenty, nineteen the
38:05
Speaker 8: Game cox went four and, eight tied for fourth in
38:08
Speaker 8: The Eastern, division and then twenty twenty started off two
38:12
Speaker 8: and five and he was let. Go so how does
38:18
Speaker 8: that compare to What Shane biemer has? Done beamer has
38:21
Speaker 8: honestly had some really really solid. Seasons twenty twenty, one
38:25
Speaker 8: first season at The, helm won The Duke's Mayo, bowl
38:28
Speaker 8: went seven and, six twenty twenty, two finished the year
38:32
Speaker 8: ranked at number twenty, three eight and five, record lost
38:35
Speaker 8: The Gator. Bowl twenty twenty three a little bit of
38:37
Speaker 8: downfall five and, seven and then twenty twenty four a
38:41
Speaker 8: big bounce.
38:42
Speaker 7: Back that was a season that included.
38:45
Speaker 8: A win OVER a AND m that kind of Derailed
38:47
Speaker 8: Mike elko's first year at The helm for The, yaggies
38:51
Speaker 8: but really helped out the Game. Cocks they ended up
38:53
Speaker 8: nine to four and finished the season ranked number, nineteen
38:59
Speaker 8: and then this past year four and, eight only one
39:02
Speaker 8: win in conference, play AND i think that there's just
39:06
Speaker 8: a little bit of recency bias going, on and that's
39:09
Speaker 8: that's what's you, know bringing about all this talk about
39:13
Speaker 8: him being on the hot, seat because, honestly outside of last,
39:17
Speaker 8: year he's done a really good. Job South carolina's had
39:19
Speaker 8: some really good seasons and there was a lot of
39:22
Speaker 8: hype going the last year that they were going to
39:24
Speaker 8: be a possible playoff team and then going four and
39:27
Speaker 8: eight was a big.
39:28
Speaker 7: Disappointment so it does make sense as.
39:30
Speaker 8: To why he ends up on this hot seat list
39:36
Speaker 8: just because of the. Disappointment but one disappointing year at
39:40
Speaker 8: a you, know middle of the PACK sec, PROGRAM i
39:44
Speaker 8: don't know that that's enough to get you. Fired so
39:45
Speaker 8: what does he have to do this year to keep his?
39:49
Speaker 8: Job it's definitely not.
39:52
Speaker 7: Gonna be any.
39:53
Speaker 8: Easier South carolina still plays in THE sec and now
39:57
Speaker 8: it's nine game conference, schedule so it's a tougher.
40:00
Speaker 7: Schedule it's they're THEY'RE i think they're pretty.
40:06
Speaker 8: High, yeah they're number one in THE sec as far
40:09
Speaker 8: as returning, production goes fifth in the nation. Overall so
40:14
Speaker 8: bringing back a lot of. Experience Lenora sellers comes back
40:17
Speaker 8: for another, season and that's gonna give them a really
40:21
Speaker 8: big leg. Up he's one of the most.
40:23
Speaker 7: Experienced quarterbacks in the nation this.
40:26
Speaker 8: Year so, HONESTLY i think as long As South carolina
40:31
Speaker 8: makes A, bowl they start off with two pretty much auto,
40:36
Speaker 8: wins Kent state and Then, thousand both at. Home so
40:39
Speaker 8: then THE sec schedule first four Games Mississippi, State, Alabama,
40:43
Speaker 8: kentucky And. FLORIDA i think that as long as they
40:46
Speaker 8: can win half of those games they should they should
40:50
Speaker 8: be all. Right and the schedule is gonna get tougher from,
40:54
Speaker 8: there but they need to find a way to win. Especial,
40:58
Speaker 8: yeah they're probably gonna Lose alabama it's on the, road
41:01
Speaker 8: but you've Got Mississippi state at, Home kentucky at, Home.
41:03
Speaker 7: Florida on the. Road you've got to win two out
41:04
Speaker 7: of those three.
41:05
Speaker 8: Games and then if they, don't it'd be really easy
41:09
Speaker 8: for them to just slide through the rest of the
41:12
Speaker 8: season because they Have, Tennessee, OKLAHOMA a and M, Arkansas
41:15
Speaker 8: georgia and Then. Clemson so if this, stretch if this
41:19
Speaker 8: opening stretch OF sec play doesn't go, WELL i think
41:24
Speaker 8: that's when we're gonna. Know so that's going to be
41:26
Speaker 8: pretty much the second week Of october when they Play.
41:28
Speaker 8: FLORIDA i think that's when we'll know whether or Not
41:30
Speaker 8: Shane biemer is going to keep his. JOB i think he.
41:32
Speaker 8: WILL i think he will find a way to have
41:35
Speaker 8: another solid. SEASON i think they'll definitely be better than
41:38
Speaker 8: four and, Eight.
41:40
Speaker 7: But we will.

Speaker 8: sec media days earlier, Today robert The.
45:09
Speaker 27: Bryan Colley Station, eagle speaking of That TEXAS a AND m, Game, shane,
45:13
Speaker 27: evidently can we Not, yeah evidently you did immediately flush
45:19
Speaker 27: it and forget. It but have you come back and
45:21
Speaker 27: maybe used that since you do PLAY a AND m
45:23
Speaker 27: game again as a learning.
45:25
Speaker 2: Experience, YEAH i think you, know that was one of
45:28
Speaker 2: three games last season that we led going into the fourth.
45:32
Speaker 2: Quarter so for, ME i look at, it why did
45:34
Speaker 2: we not play better in the fourth? Quarter because we
45:37
Speaker 2: in previous years we won a lot of close games
45:39
Speaker 2: in the fourth.
45:40
Speaker 23: Quarter in twenty twenty, four SO i look at.
45:42
Speaker 2: It you know what happened in twenty five that we
45:44
Speaker 2: didn't play better in the fourth. Quarter that's obviously the
45:47
Speaker 2: case study because.
45:48
Speaker 23: Of the lead that we had and.
45:52
Speaker 12: How we.
45:52
Speaker 2: Finished we'll really dive into that game specifically more we
45:56
Speaker 2: do a summer scouting report on every. Opponent so we've
45:59
Speaker 2: all already done our summer scouting report ON a AND,
46:02
Speaker 2: m and you look at, that and then when we
46:04
Speaker 2: get to that game later in the, season certainly we'll
46:06
Speaker 2: really dive into that more. Strategically but immediately after that, Game,
46:11
Speaker 2: yeah you look at you know what. Happened, why you,
46:15
Speaker 2: know for you give them, CREDIT i mean so much
46:17
Speaker 2: respect for Coach elko and their team to be able
46:19
Speaker 2: to come back from that in the second.
46:21
Speaker 23: Half you give them.
46:22
Speaker 2: Credit but then for me as a head, coach you
46:24
Speaker 2: look at our place and you, say you, know, why
46:27
Speaker 2: why did we not make those plays in the second
46:29
Speaker 2: half that we made in the first. Half why did
46:31
Speaker 2: we make those mental errors in the second half that
46:33
Speaker 2: we didn't make in the first.
46:34
Speaker 23: Half and that's WHAT i. Do and you, know that
46:37
Speaker 23: was a tough.
46:38
Speaker 2: Day you give them, credit but you, know got another
46:41
Speaker 2: opportunity against them this upcoming.
46:43
Speaker 12: Season, yeah we'll go to the center al for Throw.
46:46
Speaker 14: Ary, Yeah Barry, Trammel Tulsa, World. Shane we're two years
46:49
Speaker 14: Into oklahoma And texas being in the. League what are
46:52
Speaker 14: the pros and cons of the EXPANDED?
46:56
Speaker 12: Sec?
46:57
Speaker 23: YEAH i think for the fans it's.
46:58
Speaker 2: AWESOME i know when we went out To norman a
47:00
Speaker 2: couple of years, Ago, barry how many of our fans
47:02
Speaker 2: went out there and just had an amazing experience and
47:06
Speaker 2: they got to visit a place that they hadn't been.
47:08
Speaker 2: To we haven't Played texas yet In colombia Or, austin
47:11
Speaker 2: but when we, DO i know that'll be a great
47:13
Speaker 2: trip for The texas fans that come To, columbia and
47:16
Speaker 2: it'll be a great trip for The South carolina fans
47:18
Speaker 2: that go To.
47:19
Speaker 23: Austin so that's one thing is just for the.
47:21
Speaker 2: Fans the opportunities it presents to the geographic footprint THAT
47:26
Speaker 2: i think.
47:26
Speaker 23: It opens up for school.
47:27
Speaker 2: Schools Peyton williams FOR us is from rock is from Rock, Wall,
47:31
Speaker 2: texas but we really didn't have a reason to go To,
47:35
Speaker 2: texas And texas is not going to be a primary
47:38
Speaker 2: recruiting area FOR. Us but it allows us the opportunity
47:42
Speaker 2: to maybe get in some doors and some schools that
47:45
Speaker 2: maybe we did it before Because oklahoma And texas were
47:48
Speaker 2: in The big. Twelve you, know we've got somebody committed
47:50
Speaker 2: from the state Of texas right. Now we've got a
47:52
Speaker 2: couple other guys on our team from the state Of.
47:54
Speaker 2: Texas SO i think it opens up more geographic opportunities
47:58
Speaker 2: or opens up more of a geographic footprint for all
48:00
Speaker 2: schools in THE.
48:00
Speaker 23: Sec but then it also does a great.
48:03
Speaker 2: Job it's a great opportunity for the fans to be
48:05
Speaker 2: able to experience new. Places and then those are two
48:10
Speaker 2: premiere athletic, programs not just. Football but you look at
48:14
Speaker 2: What oklahoma just did in, baseball you look at What
48:16
Speaker 2: texas did in.
48:17
Speaker 23: Softball it's just.
48:18
Speaker 2: Bringing more championship pedigree teams to this, league WHICH i
48:23
Speaker 2: think is.
48:23
Speaker 12: Awesome coach will go on the section in front of
48:26
Speaker 12: me about midway.
48:27
Speaker 23: Back, Hey, Sha Nick douglas With Elite Media.
48:29
Speaker 2: Network in twenty twenty, four you had a mediocre start
48:33
Speaker 2: and the team really came alive down the.
48:35
Speaker 23: Stretch twenty twenty, five different.
48:37
Speaker 2: Story what are you doing to proactively prevent the same
48:40
Speaker 2: story as last?
48:41
Speaker 23: Year and what did you think caused? That, yeah good.
48:44
Speaker 23: QUESTION i think for, us we've got to start. Better.
48:47
Speaker 23: Period you mentioned that start in twenty, Four you're. RIGHT i,
48:52
Speaker 23: mean we.
48:52
Speaker 2: WERE i think three and three at one, point and
48:56
Speaker 2: we we didn't play great in the two close, losses
48:59
Speaker 2: but then we we had a lopsided loss To ole.
49:01
Speaker 23: Miss as one of those.
49:02
Speaker 2: Three so we've got to play better In september And,
49:04
Speaker 2: october or Particularly september and Early october getting. Started we
49:09
Speaker 2: look at that every, season you, know how do we start?
49:12
Speaker 2: Better that's always the. Case and then we've always been a.
49:15
Speaker 2: Team last year we, weren't but we've typically always been
49:17
Speaker 2: a team that has gotten better as the year went.
49:20
Speaker 23: On that we're a better team week twelve than what
49:22
Speaker 23: we were week.
49:23
Speaker 2: One but you're always looking after a good, season after
49:26
Speaker 2: a bad, season after every. SEASON i as the head
49:29
Speaker 2: coach and the people in our, building we're always looking
49:31
Speaker 2: at how do we be better next? Year you, know
49:33
Speaker 2: what do we need to tweak and change and adjust
49:36
Speaker 2: to better fit you know kind of where we are right,
49:38
Speaker 2: now and this year is no different with some of
49:40
Speaker 2: the you, know tweaks and changes that we've made going
49:42
Speaker 2: all the way back To.
49:43
Speaker 12: January, Coach we're going to go over on to our
49:46
Speaker 12: right side along the wall over to the. Right how you,
49:50
Speaker 12: doing coach Members Steven Bernard league.
49:51
Speaker 1: Winners you talked about accountability and being intentional two close,
49:55
Speaker 1: games close, losses particularly in the playoff. TEAMS i know
49:58
Speaker 1: you've brought us some coaches on the staff and that's
50:00
Speaker 1: going to make a huge. Difference but when you look
50:01
Speaker 1: at yourself in the, mirror what's something that you told
50:03
Speaker 1: yourself this offseason that you could kind of change to
50:06
Speaker 1: improve this roster in twenty twenty.
50:07
Speaker 23: Six, yeah we need. To we needed to get.
50:10
Speaker 2: Older if you look back at that twenty four, team
50:12
Speaker 2: we had a lot of older guys on that. Team
50:14
Speaker 2: we had a lot of seniors that played had played.
50:17
Speaker 12: A lot of football for. Us if you look.
50:19
Speaker 2: Back at last year's, TEAM i think a. MASSACRE i
50:23
Speaker 2: think we only had four seniors that started FOR us
50:25
Speaker 2: total on last year's. Team so for me as the head,
50:28
Speaker 2: coach it was making sure that we got. Older we
50:32
Speaker 2: brought in some transfers that have played a lot of
50:34
Speaker 2: football at a lot of, places so we increase the.
50:37
Speaker 2: Experience that was one thing THAT i as a head
50:39
Speaker 2: coach can. Control you, know we've tweaked some things with
50:41
Speaker 2: how we do things in the, offseason practice things like,
50:44
Speaker 2: that but you do that after every, season your introspective
50:47
Speaker 2: and look at how you can be. Better but we've
50:50
Speaker 2: been very intentional about getting. Better we've gotten, older LIKE i,
50:54
Speaker 2: said and certainly when you had the season that we,
50:56
Speaker 2: had that's on me AND i did not do it
51:00
Speaker 2: enough job last year to say the.
51:01
Speaker 23: Least so you're always looking at every, game how can
51:04
Speaker 23: you be better the next? Week every? Season how can
51:06
Speaker 23: you be better the next? Year and last year to

Speaker 12: side second.
52:41
Speaker 28: Row, hey Coach Bruce marshall from W hb here In.
52:45
Speaker 28: Memphis quick question about recruiting the portal at THE acc last.
52:52
Speaker 28: WEEK a couple of the coaches were talking about one
52:55
Speaker 28: of the challenges, there and it's that since the players
52:58
Speaker 28: don't it's not like a real estate listing where they
53:01
Speaker 28: have a. Price they just don't know what other people
53:04
Speaker 28: are bidding on, them and they know what they can,
53:06
Speaker 28: spend but they're just not sure what the marketplace is
53:09
Speaker 28: doing At South. Carolina how do you guys approach the?
53:12
Speaker 23: Portal you?
53:14
Speaker 28: Involved is It Darren usher? Involved is he the one
53:17
Speaker 28: handling a lot of? That but there seems to be
53:19
Speaker 28: a lot of dynamics that are much different these days
53:21
Speaker 28: recruiting a.
53:22
Speaker 2: Portal, Yeah, No i'm absolutely. Involved there's not a player
53:27
Speaker 2: that we recruit That i'm not aware of who we're,
53:31
Speaker 2: recruiting why we're recruiting, him or what they may be
53:34
Speaker 2: getting from a rev share. Standpoint i'm aware of all.
53:38
Speaker 2: That Darren usher is certainly heading that up for us and.
53:42
Speaker 2: Does he's really passionate About South carolina and does a
53:45
Speaker 2: great job of that along with the other people in
53:47
Speaker 2: our personnel, DEPARTMENT i would agree with THOSE i mean you,
53:51
Speaker 2: said acc other. Coaches it's a challenge because there is no.
53:55
Speaker 2: Transparency so all you can go on, is, well an
54:00
Speaker 2: agent tells you that his client is GETTING x amount
54:05
Speaker 2: from this. School, now don't get me, WRONG, i along
54:08
Speaker 2: with a lot of, coaches got great relationships with other,
54:11
Speaker 2: Coaches So i've been known to pick up the phone
54:14
Speaker 2: and call coach so and so and be, Like, hey
54:16
Speaker 2: are you really paying so and so this amount of?
54:19
Speaker 2: Money And i've gotten those calls from other coaches. Too
54:24
Speaker 2: that happens. Regularly so we're all talking in some. Ways
54:28
Speaker 2: but then if you're at whatever you're would.
54:32
Speaker 23: You say you're From.
54:33
Speaker 2: Memphis so if you're At Old miss And i'm At
54:36
Speaker 2: South carolina AND i Know i'm competing for a kid
54:39
Speaker 2: With Old, Miss i'm not going to call Up Pete
54:41
Speaker 2: golding and ask him what he's. Paying but in other,
54:45
Speaker 2: Instances i've been known or we've been known to do.
54:47
Speaker 2: That it's, tough the lack of, transparency there's no doubt about.
54:50
Speaker 2: It but to answer your, question for, us it's like every,
54:52
Speaker 2: school we have a. Budget we have this amount available
54:55
Speaker 2: to give from a rev share, standpoint and then you've
54:58
Speaker 2: got to make hard decisions and you've got to say
55:00
Speaker 2: that here's what we're gonna spend at the running back,
55:03
Speaker 2: position and here's what we're willing to spend on the offensive,
55:06
Speaker 2: line and you've got to be able to stick to
55:07
Speaker 2: that and make some hard decisions and be able TO
55:11
Speaker 2: i don't ever want a player to Choose South carolina
55:14
Speaker 2: because of, Money because if the only reason they come
55:17
Speaker 2: To South carolina is, money they're going to be in
55:18
Speaker 2: my office Every january threatening to go in the portal
55:22
Speaker 2: because of.
55:23
Speaker 23: Money so there's money an aspect of. It, Yes i'm not.
55:26
Speaker 2: Naive it better not be the only, reason Otherwise i'm
55:29
Speaker 2: going to be having the same conversations with guys every.
55:31
Speaker 2: Year we're going to be, competitive there's no question about.
55:35
Speaker 22: It but.
55:37
Speaker 2: We've got to be able to make tough decisions and,
55:40
Speaker 2: frankly let a guy go somewhere else if that's going
55:43
Speaker 2: to be the deciding. Factor somebody else has given him
55:45
Speaker 2: a lot more money if it doesn't quite fit with
