  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: LSU football had a scrimmage over the weekend, and our
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: investigative reporter Taylor Sharp was out there for the full scrimmage.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: He did not leave early.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: He didn't Christian Bale like Handy did, and he just
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: leave early, gonna miss something.
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: In fairness, I wanted to, but you didn't. I didn't well,
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: I didn't know if they were gonna let us out,
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: and I got scared for a little bit.
• 1:40
  Speaker 6: But you didn't.
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: I like to watch this.
• 1:43
  Speaker 7: Lane insists that you stayed for the last drive by
• 1:47
  Speaker 7: insists it means we're gonna lock you in.
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: No, it was uh not a great day for the offense.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Guys.
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: They have seen better days. Five interceptions between Who's on
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: Long Street and Land and Clark and uh for the
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: first time, I actually thought long Street played a little
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: bit better than Land and Clark. Just neither of them
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: were great, just less less mistakes, I guess overall for
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: long Street, out of the five interceptions, Clark did throw
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: three of them.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: You were a little bit more passionate about this at
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: commercial break.
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: Well, sure, I mean, you know, there's there's certain FCC
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: violations that don't apply during break, but you know, just
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: a bad day, sloppy day. They did have officials out
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: there because it was a you know, technically a scrimmage,
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: so a lot of holding penalties. And that might be
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: my biggest negative takeaway as the offensive line is still
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: kind of bad, Like they're bad, especially against that first
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: team unit. Like the second team out line wasn't quite
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: as bad going against the second team defense. But that
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: first team out line couldn't run block. I mean, and
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: you'd seen it the receivers on the outside when they
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: were trying to pitch the ball on the outside, they
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: kept run block. I mean, it's it's something that is
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: definitely a work in progress. Like it looked pretty similar, is.
• 3:04
  Speaker 7: That from the offensive pl When you say the offensive
• 3:07
  Speaker 7: line play wasn't very good.
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: That like their past blocking was better than their run blocking,
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: but not great, but better there there wasn't a ton
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: of room to run between the tackles and and really
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: on the edge as well. So that's that's a negative
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: for me. Positives this defense is really good and the
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: defensive secondary is is really good. I mean, you got
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: Woodland picket on the outside. I could I don't know
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: if they got a d ball completed on them all afternoon.
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: And then you know, Cooley's great. Benfield looks like a
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: stud at safety. We talked about him a ton. Your
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: favorite spot, the star Deshaun Spears looks right at home there.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: I mean this was like the first like how could
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: you tell us a star because.
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: He was lined up inside in the in the slot. Okay,
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: and it's not a nickel, it's it's a star. In
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: Blake Baker's defense. Uh, he looks great there. It was
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: our first like you know, extended like two hour window
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: we got to see of him there. He looks great.
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: I mean he's flying down, making tackles at the line
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: of scrimmage. Was everywhere on the defense. So that's probably
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: my biggest positive and negative. Defense definitely won the day.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: Only concern for the defense. Second team secondary is a
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: work in progress. So like you're you're starting four or
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: five everyone to everyone to put it looks really really good.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: There's a there's a little bit of a drop off
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: behind him, but overall they were really good.
• 4:26
  Speaker 7: I think at this point of the year. I think
• 4:32
  Speaker 7: you it'd be very strange if the defense was not
• 4:36
  Speaker 7: well ahead of the offense. The defense should be, they
• 4:41
  Speaker 7: should be crushing.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: In most football situations that's the case, but in this one,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: when you have basically your entire defensive staff back missing
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: like one person from a year ago, and you have
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: a bulk of your defense back that was here as well,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Like you did a really good job of retaining those players.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the offense, Now, if the offense is going down
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: there and lighting it.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Up, I'd be a little worried.
• 5:08
  Speaker 7: I'd be more worried than I am now, Like there
• 5:10
  Speaker 7: are zero alarm bells sounded in my head from here
• 5:13
  Speaker 7: in a practice report where the offense that now, I
• 5:17
  Speaker 7: don't know the specifics, like if I specifically go The
• 5:20
  Speaker 7: biggest thing that concerned me when you were talking was
• 5:23
  Speaker 7: the offensive line. So I kind of asked you, like
• 5:25
  Speaker 7: what specifically about it. Run blocking, I'm okay with it
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: not being real clean. You never really run the ball
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: great in a scrimmage anyway. The defense is seeing the
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: same running plays every single day, right, It's not like
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: you're going to scheme up against trying to install.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Something for a scrimmage. So that's okay.
• 5:45
  Speaker 7: Like if now, if they were losing a bunch of
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: one on one pass rush battles a bit, all right,
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: well that's got to get fixed. But I got no
• 5:53
  Speaker 7: alarm bells. From an offensive standpoint, the defense should absolutely
• 5:57
  Speaker 7: be ahead. They're usually always are ahead in a spring
• 6:00
  Speaker 7: or a training camp, but specifically in a situation where
• 6:03
  Speaker 7: you're installing a completely new offense, You're you're doing something
• 6:07
  Speaker 7: that probably none of these guys have ever done before,
• 6:10
  Speaker 7: which is go at the speed of which Lane Kiffen
• 6:12
  Speaker 7: likes to go. And then and of course the defensive
• 6:16
  Speaker 7: there's the defensive staff, there's you know, there's a lot
• 6:19
  Speaker 7: of consistency there, there's a lot of consistent players from
• 6:22
  Speaker 7: last year.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: It's they're gonna be ahead.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's I was talking about one of the
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: offensive coaches the other day when I went over had
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: to go to the building for something.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: I just hey, how's it going. He's like, well, you know,
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: it's new.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: It's new for the they have to embrace the suck
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: of how fast they go and then thrive in it.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: He said, that's what we're working on right now. That's
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: the part of it that we are hammering home right now,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Like right now, you're gonna be tired.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: That's gonna get fixed.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: And the more we do this, the more you know,
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: we implement all of our things, but also like you
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: have to thrive.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: That's why we do it.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Like you got to thrive when you're going fast and
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: you're a little tired, they're worn out. Said, that's the
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: process that they're in right now is trying to get
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: them up to speed with the speed of this offense.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: And if you ever go back and watch old mess,
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: there's no celebrating first downs, there's no talking trash after
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: the play. Go watch their receivers. They'll catch one on
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: the sideline, end up in like the gatorade section, my
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: high section, and then they'll like quickly like run the
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: ball to the official.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: That that's kind of how it was on Saturday. That's
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: a part of it.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: And to y'all's point about you should be concerned if
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: the offense is ahead of the defense. This is my
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: fourth off season going to Lash practices. The only one
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: where the offense was ahead of the defense was Jaden Daniels,
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: my league neighbors and Briant Thomas and you had the
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: best offense in the country and the absolute worst defense.
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: So that was the only time that the offense was
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: ever ahead of the defense.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: I don't really ever remember any team I really was
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: on now. I don't know.
• 7:57
  Speaker 7: You know, there's certainly a lot of times where they're
• 7:59
  Speaker 7: went like a big gap between it was pretty evenly matched,
• 8:02
  Speaker 7: but where the offense just goes out and dominates. I mean,
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: don't you gotta think like you are on a defense
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: You're seeing for five straight days, you're seeing the same.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Plays over and over and over and over and over,
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: and then.
• 8:16
  Speaker 7: You go to scrimmage and you're seeing the same plays
• 8:18
  Speaker 7: that you just saw the five days before that.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: So it's not like you should win a lot of it.
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 8:24
  Speaker 7: The things that concern me are how why they struggled
• 8:28
  Speaker 7: or why the defense was better. That's why we asked
• 8:32
  Speaker 7: about the offensive line. Are they just getting beat one
• 8:33
  Speaker 7: on one? I get it. If you can't run the
• 8:35
  Speaker 7: ball whatever, that's fine. Like the defensive line, they know,
• 8:38
  Speaker 7: they know where to fill, they know the reads and
• 8:40
  Speaker 7: all that stuff.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Some of the things you were telling me about the quarterbacks,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: we're a little bit concerning.
• 8:47
  Speaker 7: Overthrows, just like physically misted, like missed opportunities or misthrows.
• 8:54
  Speaker 7: That's one of those things you're like, well, we got
• 8:55
  Speaker 7: we gotta clean that up. That needs to get better.
• 8:57
  Speaker 7: Like you're talking about they look good stepping up in
• 8:59
  Speaker 7: the pocket, but airmailing some throws, which it's going to happen,
• 9:04
  Speaker 7: especially when you're playing at a really fast pace. But
• 9:08
  Speaker 7: certainly a lot of things that cleaned up. So like
• 9:11
  Speaker 7: let's specifically go You said that Hassan had the better
• 9:14
  Speaker 7: day probably the first day he's outplayed, Landed less less less.
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: Really bad throws from long Street, Like long Street looked
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: really good outside the numbers, like throwing a fade. He
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: was bad in the middle of the field. Okay, kind
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: of flipped for Land and Clark the middle of the field,
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: Like it's weird. Clark almost seems comfortable in chaos when
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: the pocket breaks down, he can get out of the pocket.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: I thought he did great stepping up in the pocket.
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: He air mailed two bad interceptions to a crossing route
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: that was it was open. Then he tried to squeeze
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: in one it wasn't there. He airmailed that one as well,
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: So like he did good avoiding the rush. It was
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: just he almost rushed his throat after that. He didn't
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: need to. So, just some things to clean up. But
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: I mean, you can playing a little fast, huh. The
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: the athletic abilities there, he can run a little bit too,
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: Like that's that's not the concern. It's just yeah, slowing down,
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: you know, calming down a little bit. But he looks
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: comfortable out there. He just he could have rushed the
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: throw a few times. But he'll get it cleaned up
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: as far as receivers go.
• 10:14
  Speaker 7: Wait, he took a little bit too much pre work out.
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: He may have may have may have been a little
• 10:18
  Speaker 7: bit juice. You know, Lanta Clark's a pre workout guy.
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: He looks like a pre workout guy. Definitely looks like
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: arm sleeve. The look he swagged out out there. Man,
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: no lack of slide.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: I don't make creating to sit on the shelves, Bud.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, no doubt.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: We've talked a lot about the top three receivers. Hey,
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: it was the same on Saturday. It was Winston Watkins,
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: Jackson Harris, who I think is going to be really good. Uh,
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: and Malik Elsey who did drop a few balls. I
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: thought Jason Brown rotating in maybe was a little bit better.
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: But Roman mother Shed is gaining some ground. Like they
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: threw his way a walt lot. He ran mostly with
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: the twos, but on the roster he is six five
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: two ten. You don't have another guy like that. He
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: looked good in his one on ones as well. He's
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: gonna play a little bit. He's the trolley transfer. Just
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: you don't have a guy with a body like that
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: outside of him, So I thought, I thought he stood
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: out a little bit.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: I think the receivers need to continue to go up
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: a bit.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: I mean last year again we talked about it like
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: you had a really good group that you didn't maximize
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: and this is a different group. That group is got
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: different skill sets in the group you had last year,
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Like it'd been interesting to see if you had the
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: group last year. This year you got a lot of
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: bodies though, And we talked about the other day like
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: at some point you got to start to figure out
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: who can help you, who can play, And you know,
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: it's got to go down to six, and then it's
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: got to go down to five, and then it's got
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: to go down to four.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: And I look, more than four are gonna play.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: But I'm saying of guys that you can count on,
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: Guys you can trust when you call eleven personnel, I'd
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: like to know who that's going to be when you
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: get ready for the first game. So you got a
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: lot of time to get there, but so many different options.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: You do want to kind of start to hone in
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: on who you think can help you.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: Trey is gonna catch a lot of balls in this offense,
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: a lot of passes he went to him a lot.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: You'll start whittling those reps down. But it's not gonna
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: be till through.
• 12:00
  Speaker 7: Training camp, no doubt, no doubt. I mean maybe a
• 12:02
  Speaker 7: little bit towards like second week of training.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: Camp and then game. You know, ten days out of
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: come so and you're all right, here's our eleven person.
• 12:10
  Speaker 7: Yeah, we talked about this tailor and I did I
• 12:12
  Speaker 7: think when I think it was last Monday, when y'all
• 12:14
  Speaker 7: were out, we talked about how it was just like
• 12:16
  Speaker 7: you don't want it was like a month ago. We
• 12:21
  Speaker 7: talked about how equal reps for everybody in spring, equal
• 12:26
  Speaker 7: wraps for everybody in summer, and at the beginning of
• 12:28
  Speaker 7: training camp, because you don't really know how somebody is
• 12:32
  Speaker 7: going to perform in a brand new offense with new
• 12:35
  Speaker 7: terminology until they completely learned that brand new offense.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: It become fluent within that system.
• 12:41
  Speaker 7: Like one kid can be ultimately talented, but he doesn't
• 12:45
  Speaker 7: show that talent because he's thinking so much. But once
• 12:48
  Speaker 7: you get him past the thinking of overthinking portion, then
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: his talent can really shine. You might have somebody that
• 12:53
  Speaker 7: can handle the thinking and playing a little bit better,
• 12:57
  Speaker 7: but it might not be as talented or as good,
• 12:58
  Speaker 7: so he looks better early on. So you really have
• 13:01
  Speaker 7: to wait in this offense to see who's going to
• 13:03
  Speaker 7: thrive in a lane Kiffen offense. Once everybody's fluent in
• 13:08
  Speaker 7: talking to talk, walking the walk, and you're not going
• 13:10
  Speaker 7: to know that right now quarterback standpoint, from a receiver standpoint,
• 13:14
  Speaker 7: from like everybody on offense, you're just not going to
• 13:17
  Speaker 7: know that, so you don't make decisions right now. And
• 13:19
  Speaker 7: we talked about like coming out of spring. It's all
• 13:22
  Speaker 7: about it's all about your pole position. All you're trying
• 13:24
  Speaker 7: to do is this is a qualification round just for
• 13:27
  Speaker 7: the real competition that's ahead. This is not the competition
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: right now. They're just they're vying for pole position going
• 13:33
  Speaker 7: into summer, and that.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Is absolutely it.
• 13:36
  Speaker 7: But until everybody gets ingrained in this new system in
• 13:40
  Speaker 7: the terminology, you're not going.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: To see a clear cut start.
• 13:43
  Speaker 7: Besides tradees, you're not going to see a clear cut
• 13:46
  Speaker 7: starter that is going to go out there and be like, yep,
• 13:48
  Speaker 7: that's our guy.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: Now, you might have a.
• 13:50
  Speaker 7: Really good idea about some people, but you might have
• 13:52
  Speaker 7: a guy that didn't make a play in spring and
• 13:56
  Speaker 7: all of a sudden he feels better in the offense.
• 13:59
  Speaker 7: He's not over thinking it, he's not thinking about five
• 14:01
  Speaker 7: different things before every before the quarterback says hut or
• 14:04
  Speaker 7: claps or whatever that they're.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Going to be doing, it's a it's a it's a clap.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: It's a clap, and it's awful.
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: You ever watched Jackson Darts Gruden QB camp last year.
• 14:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it was a clap for him. And I just
• 14:17
  Speaker 7: watched Carson Becken.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: Goes, what do you do when you're going on too,
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 14:24

• 23:08
  Speaker 3: Mental, you know me, Like the only thing that I

  Speaker 3: ever get is like mental like things that you've gone
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: over a hundred times and you just like, are not
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: in it. If you're in a day, if you strike out, Yeah,
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: a lot of people in the big league strike out.
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: And it's the one thing about coaching kids or parenting
• 23:29
  Speaker 7: kids that drives me crazy. And it's indifference. That's the
• 23:34
  Speaker 7: one thing I'm gonna get upset. Okay, I'll tell you
• 23:37
  Speaker 7: I've got two things, indifference and lack a hustle. Oh,
• 23:40
  Speaker 7: I can't take a kid walking meek dug out. I
• 23:44
  Speaker 7: can't take it.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: I can't. I can't stand it. I can't take it.
• 23:47

• 23:54
  Speaker 2: They're nicer than me.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't like, uh you will I say, They're
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: like you yeah, something, I'm like that, dude. If you're
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: if you're sprinting, if you're running, if you're engaged, if
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: you if you take a hack and you strike out,
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you an ad a.
• 24:08
  Speaker 9: You know what drives me kind of crazy?
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: I mean, hell yeah, they.
• 24:12
  Speaker 9: Do it in college base so I'm like in the
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: MLB two and I get it. But we were always
• 24:17
  Speaker 9: taught to like run the ball out, no matter if
• 24:19
  Speaker 9: it was a ground ball, if it was a pop out,
• 24:21
  Speaker 9: Like why are you not full sprinting to the bag
• 24:23
  Speaker 9: because like on a ground ball it happened to myland
• 24:27
  Speaker 9: this weekend, Like on a you can beat it out
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: if they bobble it, and like he saw that they
• 24:31
  Speaker 9: bobbled it and he hit the Jets after that, and I'm like,
• 24:34
  Speaker 9: why weren't you doing that to begin with? Like I
• 24:36
  Speaker 9: don't know that kind of bothers me. Or when they
• 24:39
  Speaker 9: strike out, when they strike out and they would like
• 24:41
  Speaker 9: walk back to the dugout, I'm like, you are a
• 24:44
  Speaker 9: put a little.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: Peppy or so like our high school coach used to
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: be like Fellaws, it's okay to Barnick callery, Yeah, that's
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: that's where I'm at.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: To Launch's point, though, like Curiel, like when he hits
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: it on the ground, he hits a second base, that
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: sound of a gun is going to try to beat
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: it out.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: Right, He knows he ain't going.
• 24:58
  Speaker 9: To Yeah, he tries.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: Hey, guess what sometimes it we're going to be drafted
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: before anybody else on this baseball team. If he can
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: do it, you for sure can do it. I'm talking
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: to the rest of the team right like that ad And.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: It's so simple. It is efforts free.
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: Yes, And it's like in baseball. It's baseball.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: You're not going to run another nine route on the
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: next play.
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: Baseball is in like a a hustle batspot in professional baseball.
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: When players are getting praised during the World Baseball Classic
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: for running hard to space, this is so different.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: Are you serious?
• 25:35
  Speaker 7: Look at this guy's hustle. I'm like, what he's running,
• 25:37
  Speaker 7: he's trying to beat out the what you should do?
• 25:40
  Speaker 7: That is, yeah, like a hustle. That's so like the
• 25:43
  Speaker 7: only time I ever get like when I coach kids,
• 25:46
  Speaker 7: the only thing I ever yell at and get upset about.
• 25:49
  Speaker 7: And I tell like if I'm coaching team, I tell
• 25:51
  Speaker 7: the parents on the front end like expectations are and like, wow,
• 25:55
  Speaker 7: the only reason I would ever try to teach a
• 25:58
  Speaker 7: kid a lesson is something that it's like a lot
• 26:00
  Speaker 7: like I call it like a life lesson. Like less
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: than just your attitude. Yeah, hustle, listening, respect, like all
• 26:07
  Speaker 7: that stuff. But like to get mad at a kid
• 26:10
  Speaker 7: for striking out, missing a ground ball, yeah, catching a
• 26:13
  Speaker 7: pop fly.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, unless you run up first on a flatball.
• 26:20
  Speaker 7: Unless they're teenagers, then then you get them. There is
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: at a certain point you gotta point you flip the
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: switch a little bit.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Ten and under.
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, just a pitch down the middle and the
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: guy loads up level, swing, takes a hat.

  Speaker 6: All right, good swing?
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: Don't you don't do that as an eleven year old though?

  Speaker 6: It is.
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: It is baseball. Bad weekend for the Tigers.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: You were hoping to go and an Ole Miss team
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: that was right where you were in the standings and
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: go be competitive, which you know at times you were
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: outside of the second game of the series. But right
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: now there's a lot of things that LSU has to
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: do right that they're just not getting done.
• 29:31
  Speaker 10: Yeah, it's just kind of all over the place a
• 29:33
  Speaker 10: little bit. For the most part. You look at it
• 29:36
  Speaker 10: and you have the defense, the offense, and you know
• 29:39
  Speaker 10: the pitching side of it. Those are the three things
• 29:40
  Speaker 10: in baseball, and one game it's there for one and
• 29:43
  Speaker 10: the other two it's not.
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: So you're kind of.
• 29:45
  Speaker 10: You're functioning on one thing, whether it's offense, defense, are
• 29:48
  Speaker 10: pitching and sometimes none of them, you know, And so
• 29:51
  Speaker 10: that's why you see these ups and downs and ups
• 29:53
  Speaker 10: and downs and late in the innings, and you know,
• 29:56
  Speaker 10: there's just a lot of things going wrong. It's you know,
• 30:00
  Speaker 10: it's a fact. You know, baseball's hard. You know, you
• 30:03
  Speaker 10: hear that all the time. And I've said that, you know,
• 30:05
  Speaker 10: many many times. It's just it's a difficult thing and
• 30:08
  Speaker 10: a lot of things got to go right, you know,
• 30:11
  Speaker 10: it's and it's tough and nothing, you know, it seems
• 30:14
  Speaker 10: like nothing's going really right for them right now, and
• 30:17
  Speaker 10: it's just makes it ten times harder.
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: You know, you got to play.
• 30:21
  Speaker 10: It comes down you have to play fundamental baseball, like
• 30:23
  Speaker 10: you can't. You got to do the fundamental things right,
• 30:27
  Speaker 10: the things that you've been doing since eight years old, right,
• 30:29
  Speaker 10: you know, And that happened to them a lot this weekend,
• 30:31
  Speaker 10: you know, where something you know, you know, and.
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: Not just specific plays.
• 30:36
  Speaker 10: You have a lot of specific plays that you can pinpoint,
• 30:38
  Speaker 10: but if you look throughout the entirety of the game,
• 30:41
  Speaker 10: it's just not there like the fundamental things like you know,
• 30:44
  Speaker 10: watching third pitch strikes like right down the middle, yeah,
• 30:47
  Speaker 10: you know, and swinging you know, striking out looking like
• 30:51
  Speaker 10: a lot of different things, and you can go back
• 30:53
  Speaker 10: and look and they got to do the fundamental things
• 30:56
  Speaker 10: right and they're just not right now.
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: We talked about a little bit about this earlier. It's
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: like cures everything right.
• 31:02
  Speaker 7: Winning solves a lot, but it also hides a lot.
• 31:05
  Speaker 7: So being a former player, do you like even even
• 31:08
  Speaker 7: in the wins, the winds are fun and we celebrate
• 31:10
  Speaker 7: them and like heroic efforts when when you do win
• 31:13
  Speaker 7: and ls you certainly has done that the last couple
• 31:16
  Speaker 7: of weeks leading up into this past week. Uh, but
• 31:19
  Speaker 7: like watching it, have you been like, Okay, the win's great,
• 31:23
  Speaker 7: but they still got to do that? Like what are
• 31:26
  Speaker 7: the consistent things that you've seen kind of all year
• 31:30
  Speaker 7: that they just have not been able to clean up.
• 31:33
  Speaker 10: I think a big part of it is from the mound.
• 31:36
  Speaker 10: I think you've seen a lot more walk like and
• 31:38
  Speaker 10: and I like to look back at other years, you know,
• 31:41
  Speaker 10: and you don't want to do that, but you know,
• 31:43
  Speaker 10: when when you win, you want to look back at
• 31:45
  Speaker 10: Like when you win a national championship, that's you want
• 31:47
  Speaker 10: to repeat that. And so when you look back at
• 31:49
  Speaker 10: those two years, the past three years, they're walking so
• 31:53
  Speaker 10: many guys this year, and they're putting guys on base,
• 31:56
  Speaker 10: Like if you go back to a certain series, you know,
• 32:00
  Speaker 10: say they walk I don't know, sixteen guys in a weekend,
• 32:02
  Speaker 10: which just happened. You know, in three games, they're walking
• 32:05
  Speaker 10: sixteen guys, which is four runs for a team, you know,
• 32:09
  Speaker 10: four or five runs for a team.
• 32:10
  Speaker 6: And that's just on walks.
• 32:12
  Speaker 10: You're putting free guys on base and letting them have it,
• 32:15
  Speaker 10: you know, and teams in the SEC take advantage of that,
• 32:17
  Speaker 10: and they're going to capitalize on your mistakes. And that's
• 32:20
  Speaker 10: what a lot of teams are doing to them. And
• 32:22
  Speaker 10: you know, on the flip side of that, they're not
• 32:24
  Speaker 10: doing that, they're not capitalizing on runners on.
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: Base, you know.
• 32:29
  Speaker 10: And then look at the defensive side of things, it's
• 32:31
  Speaker 10: they're making they're making errors like more than any pretty basic,
• 32:35
  Speaker 10: pretty basic plays and plays that are controllable. Look in baseball,
• 32:40
  Speaker 10: you got to control the controllables, you know, and you know,
• 32:43
  Speaker 10: fielding is a pretty controllable thing. You know, it's a
• 32:47
  Speaker 10: very repetition based, practice based thing. And they're just not there.
• 32:51
  Speaker 10: They haven't gone over the edge of being that great
• 32:53
  Speaker 10: defensive team like you've seen in the past. You look
• 32:56
  Speaker 10: back at the air count this year, it's way sky
• 32:58
  Speaker 10: high as opposed to other years, and last year was great.
• 33:01
  Speaker 10: It's great, you know, and so that's a huge thing.
• 33:04
  Speaker 10: Like they're just the free runners and that goes you know,
• 33:06
  Speaker 10: theirs too. You know, you're putting guys on base that
• 33:09
  Speaker 10: shouldn't be there. Those are sixteen or seventeen more outs
• 33:12
  Speaker 10: in a weekend. Yeah, that are just there for the taking.
• 33:15
  Speaker 10: So and they're doing great things too, like you look
• 33:19
  Speaker 10: back at last weekend and they hit the ball great. Yeah,
• 33:22
  Speaker 10: there's spurts of you know, super high high highs and
• 33:25
  Speaker 10: then there's the low low lows. And so they got
• 33:28
  Speaker 10: to find that that middle spot which is tough.
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: Well how tough is it too? And we were talking
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: about this a little bit before we came on. You're
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: down a starter, you had an injury. You'd like for
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: somebody to step up and take that over. But now
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: it's a it's a Johnny whole staff situation on Sunday,
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: which okay, else you's been there before, they've done that.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: But when your guy goes out there to start the
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: game and it's a third of an inning, like when
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: when you're knowing that you're gonna throw a lot of
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: arms probably that day anyways, but the guy off the
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: top only gives you one out, Like that's got to
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: be just a devastating for the coaches and the players,
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: and then the players are probably like, oh man, how
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: are we going to do this? We're probably gonna throw
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: a bunch of guys today, Like luckily, like Gidry went
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: in there and he just had to kind of take
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: one on the chin.
• 34:10
  Speaker 6: For the team, right, That's part of it, you know.
• 34:12
  Speaker 10: It's those Sunday games are like that, especially when you
• 34:15
  Speaker 10: don't have a third starter. It's going to be that
• 34:18
  Speaker 10: kitchen sink kind of day where it's just like throw
• 34:21
  Speaker 10: it in there, you know, like see what happens. And
• 34:24
  Speaker 10: you know, they they battled, you know, at the end,
• 34:26
  Speaker 10: and I think Gavin did a great job coming in
• 34:29
  Speaker 10: and just kind of settling things down and it sparked
• 34:32
  Speaker 10: back up again in the fourth. But you know, it's
• 34:35
  Speaker 10: just tough, man Like, baseball is tough, especially those Sunday games,
• 34:40
  Speaker 10: like you know, and you got a lot of younger
• 34:43
  Speaker 10: guys going out there and guys who aren't has experienced
• 34:46
  Speaker 10: in the SEC going out there and trying to you know,
• 34:50
  Speaker 10: find their way, and it's tough, like Ole Miss is
• 34:52
  Speaker 10: not an easy place to play it and not an
• 34:54
  Speaker 10: easy place to figure out what's going on, like you know,
• 34:57
  Speaker 10: and and so you're walking guys, and that's.
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah, exactly. Now it's a real hate fest over there.
• 35:06
  Speaker 10: You know, I didn't get to play when it was
• 35:07
  Speaker 10: really I would have loved that. But you know, Ole
• 35:11
  Speaker 10: Miss is a tough place to play, and trying to
• 35:14
  Speaker 10: figure it out there as a team is not easy.
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: Well it's not gonna be easy coming up. I mean,
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: you got trips to Georgia. You welcome A and M
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: in Florida to town, but you got to go to Startville.
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, no, this is outside of South Carolina.
• 35:28
  Speaker 10: Look, they're past the easy part of their schedule, you know,
• 35:31
  Speaker 10: which is it's you know, it is what it is.
• 35:36
  Speaker 6: You know it's coming like it or not.
• 35:38
  Speaker 10: They got you know, two more home series or three
• 35:40
  Speaker 10: more home series left, and they got to capitalize on those,
• 35:44
  Speaker 10: you know. And and then they go to Georgia. The
• 35:45
  Speaker 10: best team in the SEC right now in Mississippi State
• 35:48
  Speaker 10: right behind them. You know, it's as a great team
• 35:51
  Speaker 10: the SEC and an even tougher place to play. They
• 35:55
  Speaker 10: got to take advantage of it, you know, and accept
• 35:58
  Speaker 10: the energy that's coming with it and just play with
• 36:00
  Speaker 10: some fire.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 36:01
  Speaker 10: It's kind of look around and that energy is a
• 36:04
  Speaker 10: little down right now, and you can see it even
• 36:06
  Speaker 10: as a fan and a former player, Like the energy
• 36:09
  Speaker 10: is just a little down, Like he need some just
• 36:11
  Speaker 10: you know, they need a little kick in the teeth.
• 36:13
  Speaker 10: Maybe they might have needed this this weekend and just
• 36:16
  Speaker 10: go back and.
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: Because like Matt, like Matt to your point, like they
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: won two series in a row, and maybe you know
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: it did hide some things. Will's point got exposed, right
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: And if you don't if if this.
• 36:28
  Speaker 10: Doesn't, yeah, exactly, like there's nothing you can do if
• 36:32
  Speaker 10: they like if this doesn't fire you up a little bit,
• 36:36
  Speaker 10: like man as a player, former player, like something's got
• 36:40
  Speaker 10: to change in that locker room a little bit, you know,
• 36:42
  Speaker 10: as a as a thing where it's like like this
• 36:45
  Speaker 10: is time, Like it's like nobody's doing anything for us,
• 36:48
  Speaker 10: you know, Like you can only be coached so much.
• 36:50
  Speaker 6: Coaches can only do so much.
• 36:51
  Speaker 10: The players have to go out there and execute and
• 36:53
  Speaker 10: find the energy and be able to execute, like that's all.
• 36:57
  Speaker 10: That's all baseball is, in any sport, anything in life,
• 36:59
  Speaker 10: you know, you got to go out and execute. And
• 37:01
  Speaker 10: so people, you know, coaches can only do so much
• 37:04
  Speaker 10: for you, like you know, and it's not like these
• 37:07
  Speaker 10: they don't.
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: They want to win just as bad as everybody else,
• 37:10
  Speaker 6: you know.
• 37:10
  Speaker 7: And to your point, who's the leader on the team?
• 37:13
  Speaker 7: I think there's I mean, I don't have to be
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: just one like it can It can be a lot
• 37:17
  Speaker 7: of guys. Every team's different. It can be a couple
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: of guys, but somebody if you ever want to hope
• 37:24
  Speaker 7: to change anything, and certainly throughout the year, it's the
• 37:27
  Speaker 7: same issues all season long. Right now, It's been hidden
• 37:30
  Speaker 7: a few times because of great offensive production, yeah, and
• 37:33
  Speaker 7: maybe a great pitching out in here or there, But like,
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: the same issues have been prevalent all year long and
• 37:38
  Speaker 7: they haven't changed. If you want any hope for the
• 37:41
  Speaker 7: rest of the season, those things have to change. But
• 37:43
  Speaker 7: it's got to come from internal, yeah, internal, it has to.
• 37:46
  Speaker 7: So who are the leaders on this team? I think
• 37:48
  Speaker 7: there's multiple guys.
• 37:49
  Speaker 10: You get a guy like Gidury, who's an advanced, you know,
• 37:53
  Speaker 10: you know, fifth year guy who's been through two national championships,
• 37:56
  Speaker 10: like he knows the recipe, knows the formula, and a
• 37:59
  Speaker 10: lot of those guys do, like Cason Evans now all
• 38:02
  Speaker 10: those guys last Milo, Yeah, I mean they know the
• 38:06
  Speaker 10: recipe and I don't. I don't know, you know, And
• 38:10
  Speaker 10: that's such a an internal thing, Like for for me,
• 38:14
  Speaker 10: it was me like me and some guys who weren't
• 38:17
  Speaker 10: as prevalent, like it wasn't like you know, guys who
• 38:21
  Speaker 10: are always in the lineup or whatever.
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: So it may be like that for them.
• 38:25
  Speaker 10: I think it's probably Guidry, Jake Brown, you know, those
• 38:28
  Speaker 10: guys who have who've seen it, who've you've been through this,
• 38:31
  Speaker 10: Like those guys are there in twenty twenty four when
• 38:33
  Speaker 10: we kind of sucked, you know, in the season and
• 38:35
  Speaker 10: figured a way out and figured foind out we're into
• 38:37
  Speaker 10: a regional and then into a regional championship, Like you know,
• 38:40
  Speaker 10: it happens in weird ways, and you know, you I
• 38:45
  Speaker 10: don't know exactly who it is. And it may be
• 38:48
  Speaker 10: guys who were not even talking about, you know who
• 38:51
  Speaker 10: who need to step up and need to say something,
• 38:54
  Speaker 10: you know, because only so much Jay can say, and
• 38:57
  Speaker 10: you know, Gavin can say and Jake can say, and
• 39:00
  Speaker 10: maybe another guy who needs to really you know, fire
• 39:02
  Speaker 10: guys up and let it rip on somebody.
• 39:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah, let me ask you this from like a specific standpoint,
• 39:07
  Speaker 7: And I kind of gave you like a metaphorical question,
• 39:10
  Speaker 7: and let me ask you some they're real specific about,
• 39:12
  Speaker 7: like some of the issues, some of the issues that
• 39:16
  Speaker 7: we thought you thought you just talked about, like control
• 39:18
  Speaker 7: and not being able to walk guys, what if? Like
• 39:21
  Speaker 7: how has pitch selection been to you in your opinion
• 39:25
  Speaker 7: on different bat Has pitch selection been an issue on
• 39:28
  Speaker 7: some of these walks?
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: You think you mean pitch calling?
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay?
• 39:31
  Speaker 6: From uh, I don't nothing.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: Stood out to you?
• 39:35
  Speaker 10: Nothing stands out to me. Yeah, no, And I don't
• 39:39
  Speaker 10: know these like everybody's different. You know, some guys change
• 39:41
  Speaker 10: up works in a two to one count for whatever reason.
• 39:43
  Speaker 10: And there's so much date it's so data driven now
• 39:46
  Speaker 10: based off of what this hitter swing does versus my slider,
• 39:50
  Speaker 10: And it's like and sometimes it gets a little wacky,
• 39:53
  Speaker 10: like let's go out there and pitch a little bit,
• 39:55
  Speaker 10: you know, like I'm let me let me beat you
• 39:57
  Speaker 10: with my fastball, Like let's go back to the the
• 40:00
  Speaker 10: good old days of baseball where's just me versus you,
• 40:03
  Speaker 10: you know, and and there's that that hasn't been lost.
• 40:06
  Speaker 10: But I think the pitch going has been fine. And
• 40:08
  Speaker 10: I know that it's you know, just from knowing Kochiesky
• 40:12
  Speaker 10: and you know Jay like there's so much data behind
• 40:15
  Speaker 10: it and Jamie Tutco like they do this all week
• 40:18
  Speaker 10: long and figure out what's best. And it's not like
• 40:19
  Speaker 10: it doesn't work, but if you don't execute your pitch
• 40:23
  Speaker 10: the way it's called, then it's not gonna work. And
• 40:26
  Speaker 10: so you know, it's just back again. It comes down
• 40:29
  Speaker 10: to execution, you know.
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: All right, let's end this on a high note. That
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: was not very uplifting. No, what do you have going
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: on coming up? Louisiana Loaded?
• 40:38
