  Speaker 1: Well, this sweat just goes because I'm out in the
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: field and will he wants to walk on the field.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I got the game.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: Of football between the white line.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: You no, I know walking between the light lines. I
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: had to get a couple of your players and hey,
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: come on, let's go.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: If you're walking, find anybody to walk. You were going
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: right outside the stadium. You see people walking all the time.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: It's disrespectful.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: You were chirping me a little bit about Oklahoma.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: You were chirping me about Nebraska, but then quickly remembered
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: the heartbreaker at Memorial Stadium. That was an incredible game,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: an incredible atmosphere. I would love for you to speak
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: on how high in all time the energy was at
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: the University of Nebraska.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a great game, a huge win for
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: you guys at that time as you guys were kind
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: of rebuilding it and coming up at that time. And
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: defensively had a huge, huge day. Quarterback right, I was
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: the QB coach that day. Quarterback had a rough day
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: thing through four picks Landry. It was buzz Landry. But
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: we found a way to rebound and you know, had
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: a great day in Dallas and conference championship game.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: We didn't talk about that off air. Yeah, yeah, we
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: were up the whole bro. We were up seventeen and nothing.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: Number one.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: The year before is when we lost to Texas by
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: that one second. I talk about it all the time.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: He says that they don't deserve at all.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: And the whole next year, we're wearing these bracelets. Right,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: that's back when the bracelet fad was happening and we
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: had still one. We had a one second bracelet we
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: had to wear the entire year because it was all
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: about that one second. We make it all the way
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: back to the Big Twelve Championship, our last year in
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: the Big twelve. So I think that there was some
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: stuff that play there, hard feelings.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and already out or has break that you were
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: going to the Big ten?
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: What's up?
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: When did you all break that you were going in
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: to the Big ten?
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: That before the later that spring?
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Okay, so everyone knew. Yeah, oh so the whole Big
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: twelve pa, y'all.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and we were up seventeen nothing, bro, and they
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: come back and beat us, what twenty four to seventeen?
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Like we went scoreless, like we stopped, like yeah, we stopped,
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: uh mess with Burkehead.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: We stopped running him for whatever reason.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: We put the game in Taylor Martinez and his I
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: love ted Taylor, I love you brother.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: But he was young.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: Then he was young then turnover machine though, but he
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: cost Yeah, I think so. Maybe this was the year
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: before the second year.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: But Nebraska loves to come back. Yeah. The reason why
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: you don't. You should always win Burkehead, especially in college.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Guys have studies still grinding to this day.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he is getting after it. Just a salty white dude,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah he is. But obviously enough about my old glory days. Dude,
• 3:35

• 3:37
  Speaker 2: pig skin. I would love to hear about like you

• 4:00
  Speaker 3: I'm the probably field. Every once in a while, do
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: you mix it up out there with them? Not when
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: it's live action, certainly not. But uh, Thursdays for Fridays,

• 4:08
  Speaker 3: catch with those guys. Do a little fat and slow,
• 4:11

• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Fridays and nights.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: You've got to give the big guys a chance to
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: catch the ball.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: I have a little fun. They got the ball too.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Right now, do you guys have anything to playbook right now?
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: For those big guys.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't have the tackle screen in right right now,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: but you and I can talk about off air.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: I'll give you a couple of things close to the
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: get on the goal line to make it make a
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: tackle when you know you can't report eligible in college, right.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I know, but you can be in an eligible position absolutely.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I got a couple of things for you now.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: A couple of things from the Titans. We never we
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: never brought out of the books.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: I like it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I give you a couple of things.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: I don't know what's up for me, but I'm curious.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: I would like you to talk about because as somebody
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: I was coming out of college, fortunately I've got I've
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: I've had a career that I feel like I've been
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: lucky to have. But my mindset coming out of college
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: was I wanted to be a coach, and you went
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: from college to uh, you had a little stint in
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: the NFL, and then you transitioned into coaching.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: Did you go from playing to a GA? Did you
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: get right into a coaching position?
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Talk to us through that, because you went from all
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: American opportunities in the NFL and then you become a
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: coach right when you've quickly climbed the ranks as like
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: a head coach of a prestigious huoter.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I sure.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: I actually grew up around the game.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: My dad was a small D two head football coach,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: and whenever playing was going to be over, you know,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: it felt like that was where I was gonna gonna
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: head And and uh, it ended a lot quicker than
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I wanted to. Had an injury, couldn't pass any physicals
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: on the back end of it, and opportunity came up
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: to to GA. You know, worked with quarterbacks, spent some
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: time with the offensive line, which actually was one of
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: the best things that I ever did. Just understood the
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: schemes and and uh, you know, targets and the fundamentals,
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: but just really diving into it. I think it's helped
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: me as as a full time coach and as an
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: offensive coordinator. And I was a head coach understanding the
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: game from a different perspective than just playing quarterback.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt. What was your what was your mindset
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: like when you were when you get drafted in the
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: six round, when you go to the Miami Dolphins. It
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: was my right, Yeah, you go to Miami and then
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: when did you sustain that injury you were talking about?
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Was that in Miami or is it the next year
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: in Green Bay?
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah? In Miami. In Miami, I might have had a
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: little bit of it. Uh, you know on the back
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: end of the college career. Oh really?
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: And uh anyways, you know, you go in compete. I
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: don't think you know, as a competitor. You know, my
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: road just through college was a junior college player and
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: then then went to Oklahoma. You're fighting and competing every
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: single day. And that's true no matter what round you're
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: drafted in. Right, you got a little bit of security
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: if your first second round pick, but man, you got
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: to go in and earn it and learn it and
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: take jobs.
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: And uh you know, so for me, that that's the
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: mindset that I was going to have always had a
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: coach's perspective, a little bit smart, cerebral control, things at
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: Thought that was a.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Big part of who I was as a player. All
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: those things transitioned into into the coaching world. And all
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: the skills that you learned while you're playing football, man,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: they become a piece of you when you're when you're coaching,
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: and and truly, you know, we talked to our players about, Man,
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: you get out in the real world and when you
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: guys are done playing, it's all things and traits that
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: you've learned life skills to go be successful in life too.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: And when you go from winning national championship Oklahoma being drafted,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, you're you're probably walking to Oklahoma and catch
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: a free mill wherever you go. Right now, still to
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: this day, Donoville too, Let's go, dude, let's go. The
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: players can now legally, I'm sure before you know where
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: it goes down.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Out here, dude, I'm uh, I'm curious because I agree
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: with you one hundred percent. All the things you learn
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: of football, like it's the best game right to transition
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: into life and everything else you learn about, all the
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: characteristics you need to kind of transition to the real world,
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: so to speak. But I'm super curious, like, was that
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: frustrating when you're going through injury having a decorated college
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: career because you don't you don't have this mindset that
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: you have now that you're able to give to the
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: young guys that you're able to carry as.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: A coach, Like absolutely everything's bigger, right, It's mountains, mountains,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: And what I was gonna say in the from the
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: last question is when you go through those things, is
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: going back to Oklahoma and having to go and now
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: do a ga job where like your mindset is that'skind
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: of where you're going with that.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yea, I mean you hijack the You just hijacked
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: my question.
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: Question that was actually gonna be my question, that's gonna
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: be I'm just curious, like I would love to know
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: about the hardship of that transition because as somebody like
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: being undrafted, being a lower round guy, right, low round
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: undrafted and you're going through injuries and there's a lot
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: of fear and anxiety.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Is am I gonna make this fucking team? And you
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: got a lot of people, right, I'm sure for you.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: I wasn't an All American. But I'm thinking I can
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: only assume you feel pressure from being an All American
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: and feeling like you have an expectation and the way
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: people look at you. Can you talk about the hardships
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: of the transition for a.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Little bit, Yeah, I think the outside perspective of you know,
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: what people think you should be doing, there's some of that,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: But I think as an elite competitor, right and somebody
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: that reaches success, I don't care if it's college football
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: or the NFL. Man, you're so driven inwardly that that's
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: the pressure that you feel more than anything else, is
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: the expectation of yourself because of the work that you've
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: put into. But it certainly felt that when I got
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: drafted where I went, you know, you're going through rehab process.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: I think the transition to the NFL similar but different
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: than you know, transition from high school to college. There's
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: so many unknowns right in that first year, like you're
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: trying to figure everything out, and the anxiety that comes
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: with all the nervous energy because of the unknowns makes.
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: It a really difficult year.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: When you go through the transition of injury, having to rehab,
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: man that weighs on you in a completely different way
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: than people can understand unless they've been through that process.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: So you feel all that. Absolutely. It's a really unique
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: and hard time in life. I think when you get
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: done playing, and it's not that you solely identify yourself
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: as a player, but man, there was a purpose and
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: a goal and really a schedule laid out for you
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: every single day and what you had to do in life.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: The next day you wake up and you're like looking around, man,
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: who's going to help me figure this out out?
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: And how do I get going? And what's next?
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: You know, you guys haveured out kind of what's next
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: for you guys, you know. And I think that's the
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: unique thing for some guys that play a long time, right,
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: that are still in their careers, is they can start
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: planning that transition while they're still playing.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, do you think the NIL stuff might help with
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: that too, as guys when they're getting paid to do
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: certain things and realizing you can kind of make money
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: outside of football, because when you're in college, I mean
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the big ted, not in the SEC, you're just trying
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: to make it. You get only your rent checks, you're
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: not getting paid by boosters or nothing, so you're kind
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: of just.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: Living your life. You know what I'm saying, You're just living.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: But I'm saying, do you think it gives these kids
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: an opportunity to kind of see, Okay, there are other
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: avenues that can take other than football, to make relationships
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: and get jobs, and kind of shrinking that anxiety that
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: you kind of get when you have to transition.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: I think one of the great things about NIL is
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: that it is forced kids to understand that they have
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: a brand and image, and the choices that they make
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: transitioning into college football, you know, have a huge impact
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: on their future and potential earning power.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: The issues that.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Maybe I've had to deal with previously as a head
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: coach man, very few of those things are showing up
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: right now because they are so understanding and have a
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: global view of what they're trying to accomplish. It changes
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: the mindset, it changes the opportunities.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: So you know, like ten, I mean ten or so
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: years ago, when I was in college, back in our day,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: back in our day, it was kind of like social
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: media was kind of coming out, Like when I was
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: like Facebook was a think, Twitter wasn't really a thing yet,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden allly social media counts
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: are coming out and these players are like trying to
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: establish themselves their personalities on stuff, and a lot of
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: coaches look at us and go, well, what the fuck
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: do you guys doing? You should be focused only on football,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: like you don't need this stuff, And now it seems
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: like like your your review on it. Has your view
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: always been like the same as it is right now
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: with nil stuff? Have you always like encouraged players to
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: kind of be who they are or is.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: It I play the game and I was as competitive
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: as anybody I still am today. I was as focused
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: on being successful in the field as anybody in the lock.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: I never felt like I gave an inch in any area.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: But man, there's still a balance to your life, right
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: And you know, in college there's an academic.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Portion of it, but there's a social portion of it too.
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: What happens is that takes up some of that social time.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: There's less dead time because they are interested in different
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: pursuits outside of football. At the end of the day,
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: the football and the brand and your name on your
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: jersey and the power of how you play is the
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: most important marketing tool that you have. Don't lose sight
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: of that it's okay to have those other other interests
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: and keep it within the scope of the team.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: What's what's it been like stepping into this job, because
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: over the past, like I'm not a diehard Tennessee guy,
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: but over the past several years there's been like a
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: it's been shuffling in coaches out left and right. What's
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: it been like for you stepping into a job like
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: this at a prestigious program, having a year kind of
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: you know, label whatever you want, rebuilding whatever, having some success.
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: But how has you.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Backed by a lot of the fans too? You know,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Jack was in the car saying, how great Tennessee. Have
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: great Tennessee as well? Well, I thought y'all won the
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Natty last year. He's that doesn't just go for Jack,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: it goes for Tennessee fans all across. I mean, like
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Jack Man, Jack rips Jack Jack, they go hard and Nxville.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: But it kind of seems like there's such a long
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: line of tradition here and it really reminds me of
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Michigan in a lot of ways, where like nineties in
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: early two thousands, like a lot of relevant goes back
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: to Michigan. Then listen.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: Question again, again, let's.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Just sit back, all right, go ahead. Well, I'm just
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: kind of I was, I was trying to add to
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: the question. I'm sorry, we're having a bag where our
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: chemistry is tough, and it's probably on me, But it
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: does seem like people in Tennessee. Tennessee fans are thrilled
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: about you as a coach and where this program is headed.
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: If you've got great leadership, we got unbelievable athletic director, Chancellor, president.
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: If if there's the intinct vision of what we want
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: to accomplish, our athletic director and I've worked together before,
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: like clear understanding of what we're trying to accomplish went
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: on the field, but great uh academic and athletic experience
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: for our student athletes. Man, then you can just go
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: to work.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: We're able to have hire great staff here.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: You know, the Tennessee's an iconic brand man top ten
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: in the history college football and wins first round draft picks.
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: Anything you want to do, you can do right here.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: The fan base is as passionate and as big as
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: any in America. That's why there's one hundred and two
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: thousand plus seats inside that stadium.
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: You know, we get a chance to put a.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: New age approach on an iconic brand, and that's what
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: we're doing. We've built great chemistry inside of our building.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: You guys are out at practice. You saw the culture,
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: the energy, the competitiveness that we have got great coaches
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: that are great teachers and mentors, and now we just
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: get to build it every single day. You know, the
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: foot traffic that we have in recruiting gives us the
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: ability to go chase championships. That's what we're gonna do.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Speaking of fan base, I was at the Tennessee Old
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Miss game when I was trying to link up with
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: you the first time, but what do you The atmosphere
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: of that game was insane. Like I'm obviously dieharden nebrassa
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: guy like we have the best fans in the country,
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: where the nicest, for sure, but there's some violence in
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: uh here. There's some violence of this stadium, that's just
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: for sure. Talk to us about how everything unfolded at
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: the end of the game, and I would love take
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Did you love what you saw from the fan base
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: at the end?
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: Listen as a competitor, right, I've driven down the interstate
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: and seen Vall Navy with two hundred and fifty three
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: hundred boats tied up. It's a unique setting in all
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: of college sports. They talked about Vall Walk before the season.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: In all reality, I was kind of skeptical, Man, there's
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: not really forty thousand people out there.
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: It is unlike anything in sports.
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: Yes, down the hill, you hang a left, you go
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: through Gate twenty seven, man, and there is a swarm
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: of people.
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: It is electric. My son walked down with me. We
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: take our.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Kids on ballwalk, play catch with him in the end
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: zone for five minutes. Man, his eyes were just massive
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: when we turned the corner and he saw that that
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: group of people in the stadium.
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, you were there that night.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: It was crazy, Bro.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: I'm talking like, obviously I'm not sitting here like condoning
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: violence and people getting hurt. But the vibe to me
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: was like going into a Philadelphia Eagle stadium where you're
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: in the division and they they don't.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: Like that you're there.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: There's obviously your history with Kiffen and all that stuff,
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: but it was like they don't want you at the
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: stadium and it's rowdy. Like as a player, like you
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: love kind of playing in that environment because.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: It was man, they care. They're they're in their seat
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: sixty minutes before kickoff.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: You can feel it, you know what I mean.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: They had a great they had a great afternoon tailgating.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: But they're in the stadium early. You're going to hear
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: them all night long. Shoot, Rocky Tops gonna get played
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: fifty times while you're in the stadium for four hours.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: And you saw that event unfold, right, you know.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Some of this Number one was the longest game for sure,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: game especially the first quarter.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Well, me, I'm in the middle of the season. What
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: exactly happened?
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: There was a lot of dehydration by the old myths.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Guys.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: They didn't they didn't drink before.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: They didn't drink before the football game brought a both
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: of calls that might have not gone our way, that
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: what calls didn't go your way, And they're here the
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: scoop and score strip scoop score. Yeah, there's the first quarter, right,
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: there's the first down on a down. Do you think
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: the person that funneled the ball was down?
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah? Can I borrow your check book? I don't want
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: to get fined.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: And then at the end of the Tennessee's got the facilities,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: they get the money.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: At the end of the game, it just got rowdy.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: People are throwing the golf balls mustard, like how do
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: they have and ain't got to They had to get
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: the players off of the field because it was just
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: getting so bad.
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: You couln't even really.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Play the game because they're people are throwing stuff on
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: the field.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: Was their way.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the the major point of that night
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: is the three hours and fifty nine minutes of that crowd. Like,
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: that's my takeaway. This is as good a place as
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: there is in college football.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if you don't want to say it, I'll say,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Tennessee fans keep that up, like, keep doing that.
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the big dick energyep being.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Absolutely aggressive because you want that when like when Michigan
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: got how State, it's like, I feel like I'm gonna
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: get assulted after this game. We lost. But even that
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: wasn't good enough for them.
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: They were trying to take your lives. And it sounds
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: like that's kind of what's going on here. I love
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: our fans thinking about our friends.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: What was that?
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: What was the thing you were talking about? The Vall
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Navy And he was like, what is that it's.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: One of the two stadiums in the country where you
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: can drive a boat up and go tailgate and go
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: to the game and boats tied up having a party.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: It is Friday night we drive to the hotel. You know,
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: they're honking their horns and having a good old time
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: as we're heading to the hotel. And Saturday, you're gonna
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: see them before kickoff too.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Hey, you got to play hooky one of those games.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Don't just go out with the Navy. That sounds like
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: a hell of a deal. So before you got here,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: you're at Oklahoma. And where'd you go from Oklahoma for
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: it was that.
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: Utah State for a year, in Missouri for two.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: And first off, god damn it, when you went to
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: so you went to Utah State, sorry, Missoo for a
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: year and wherel.
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: So I was Miszoo for two, u c F for
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: UH for three.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: On the back of all of all those schools, which
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: one was probably your favorite coach We're not talking about
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: testing right now.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: Unique opportunity, just being the first time head coach at
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: u CF, love of the guys.
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: That we had in the building and a passionate fan
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: base down there too.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Now you see there's a lot of controversy. I think
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: the year before you got there.
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's always controversial.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and so people are saying they won a national championship.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: Do you agree they.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: Went undefeated and beat the only teams that they were
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: the only undefeated team.
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: So absolutely, so.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: You think over Alabama they have the national championship?
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: Why would I not agree with with the guys that
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: where I was, I'm.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: With you because we were.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: In the car, Like, if you're undefeated, ain't no other
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: games being played?
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: Nobody can touch you?
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Would we when were they let in?
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: Then we got a playoff? Now you know what I mean?
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: Let's keep expanding in the right they get in there only.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's got to be tough. Do you think because
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: of that they should redo the playoff system? Like maybe
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: you should take one from each Power five school and
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: then allow to more.
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: I don't know what the right thing to do with
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: the college football playoff is. The day you know you
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: want to find the best I think well said, look
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: think about this.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: When you were in college though, right and just you know,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: sniff the playoffs?
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: That might be right.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: We didn't sniff them, but go ahead, What were you
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: going to say?
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Look, yeah, if you're the GM of the College Fool
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Playoff and you had your little fantasy world, you're hanging
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: in the house, you're playing GM mode on the on
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: the Xbox, what layout would you have if you got
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: to create your own playoffs? No one.
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: I think it's real simple.
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: You take the top four teams from the SEC and
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: play it out.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: God, but is it really?
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, you got a hot Stay, you got Michigan Dog.
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: Give it.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: Really, you guys let us down in the playoffs this year. Listen,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: I know we fucked up, all right, we messed up,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: but we were in that thing, Doug. If Nebraska is
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: in it, we would have lost by three points, no question,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: There's no question about that. Probably the best three and
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: nine team in the history of college of college of
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: college ball, zero score differential throughout the season. So you're
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: really drinking the cooler. Like, the SEC is the best
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: conference by.
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: Far, This is why you want to coach and play in.
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: This league. Absolutely is the best league in America.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: So you would if let's say tennise, I would say
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Tennessee wasn't even a school, it doesn't exist. You're just
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: you're going to be.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: Asking questions until I give you the answer to this
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: is this is how I get paid that.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, those are phenomenal answer, though, gosh damn you did
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: you got us that?
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: If Tennessee wasn't like you were, you were working here,
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: would you take another sec? Would we're living in a
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: fantasy world and Tennessee doesn't exist, Oklahoma offers you.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: When I was that u c F, I thought it
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: should have been three SEC teams in u c F
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: when we were undfeed in the regular season.
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: This man, he's.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Going into a year two, Like, what kind of leaps
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: are you looking to make this year? Because year one
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: you're obviously in a very much What do we have?
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: How do we build the culture? How do we do
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: all these things? Now you're in the system and you're
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: in the culture and everything else. What is like a
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: year or two jump? You like to see the guys
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: make a message across the board.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: It's like, all right, guys, we never put a ceiling
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: on ourselves in year one either, right, A lot of
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: guys chose you, t they didn't necessarily choose me. Man,
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: we both chose the power tea. At the end of
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: the day, I thought we came together. We competed extremely hard.
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: Man. There's a million different ways that you got to grow.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: I think the leadership and the culture and the consistency
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: and the accountability inside of the room has to continue
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: to grow.
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: It has.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: During the off season and through spring ball, spent a
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: lot of time on just leadership from within. Championship teams
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: happened because of the championship culture that's inside of that
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: locker room. You know, coaches, they change, they grow, but man,
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: it's not drastically different from year to year. Man, It's
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: got to start inside. And so we've tried to build
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: that ownership from within, and you know, we just got
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: to continue to grow that way here as we go
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: through our off season.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: He's good.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, should we do the Duke Cannon question?
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Well, I have one more question than Cannon question, and
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: it's a simple one. As a coach, when you bring
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: recruits in here, what's your selling points of these kids?
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: What do you tell them? The power of the the
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: power of the team, what you to say? Education on me,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: the UNSA facilities.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: This is college football as good as it gets. It
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: truly is the.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: History of it, the tradition, the passion and pageantry.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: Of the fan base.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: You know, you look at the facilities, you look at
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: what this university in the city has to offer. Uh,
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: it's a really special four year opportunity. And and uh
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: you know, we're going to be the most aggressive football
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: team in America. I honestly believe that people get caught
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: up in what we are offensively because of my background.
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: But that's how we play defensively. That's what we do
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: on special teams. And if you want to play the
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: most exciting brand in college football, and this is the
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: place got tool resource to become your best. It is
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: an unbelievable city to live in. I think that's one
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: of the things that I didn't understand in coming here.
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: I thought all the resources, all the facilities, Yeah, those
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: things that are all here.
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: But Nxville is an unbelievable city. Man.
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: There's a real personal professional growth. It is a fantastic
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: place to live.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: So our final question, a matter of fact, I thought
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: of a second one too.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Go ahead.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: This's be the Duke Cannon segment. Not for clowns. We
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: actually got a nice as you see over there. All
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: of our products this is from you got the odor, Yeah, we.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: Have this is for you might need to take this.
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: This is our nil deal for you.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: Hey, and I swear this is this is this is
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: on Nebraska, Duke Cannon.
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: That ship is legit.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Like it is legit.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: It's on me, it's on my arm pits. I did
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: a little uh what is it the shower bilt like
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: the rag?
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I got the colone, the solid colonne in
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: there that can go on. You rub it on your neck.
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: It's not like spray. You can rub it on yourself.
• 24:55

• 24:58
  Speaker 1: put this on. In fact, you start, you get a
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: little warm outs on the pets, aren't that. You can
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: put it anywhere you want, and this thing keeps you
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: nice and cool the whole time.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: It's an outstanding brand.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: And this segment is brought to us by Duke Cannon.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Shout out Duke Cannons. The Purdue game, the gay, the
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: play on the goal line.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Which is the big ten by the way, exactly, let's see.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a that's a side piece. That was a
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: big ten ball, right, that's big big ten branded football.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: He guys ruined our field.
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: You're claiming big ten. Oh, Nebraska, So I claimed Big ten.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: I didn't know you know. I mean, you're a big
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: twelve guy when you played, well, I played it.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: Hang on those big hang on Big twelve two years,
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Big ten two years. I ended my junior and senior
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: year in the Big ten, So I.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: Can claim big ten a little bit more. Yeah, I
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: can claim that a little bit.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: I was just a freshman when we lost you guys,
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: so if I was like a senior and playing, we
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: probably win that championship game.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: Leadership, Yeah, leader.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: Your thoughts on that last play, your actual emotion, like
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: who did you want to strangle?
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: And yeah, well I'm gonna go to a replay.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but you but your thoughts on that last play, clearly.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: I think everyone feels like you guys got jip for sure,
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: And you know I can be man enough to say that,
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: but I would.
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: Love to know today. Don't put in somebody else's hands.
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: We got an opportunity to make a bunch of different plays,
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: different play calls, all those things that can factor in
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: and how we win the football game and regulation or
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: at the end of it. At the end of the day,
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: people that watch the football game could probably read my
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: lips and see the disappointment in the outcome of that call.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: What's you say, don't leave into the hands of somebody else.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: But I would almost argue, like, as a player watching
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: it all happen, like that's clearly a play that shouldn't
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: be in the hands of anybody except like the players,
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: because to.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Me, I feel like somebody's just coming in there to
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: hijack the game. I actually knew word of the day.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: I feel like, I feel like you're not really leaving
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: it up to the refs, like the play was happening,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: the progress was happening, nothing was really stopping, and all
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, when we're blowing whistles and stopping to
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: play short.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you said it was as good as
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: you could and I love it.
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: Dude.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: A lot of people when they come on busting with
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the boys, can't handle the pressure of how big of
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: a deal this is. Yeah, he's done an amazing job.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Like Vrabel came on, so he cut his dick off
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: for a Super Bowl. He was rattled. The lights were
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: too big for him. But you're handling this like it's
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: nothing right now. It's the volunteers got themselves a coach.
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they do.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: I am a Coacheck. I've been with Coacheck for a while.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: He has a lot of good things to say about you.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: Not that I don't know how much credibility he actually has,
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: but you're right, I know. It's like babysitting that guy.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: He's fiery bro, same workout every day. He got no,
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say arrested to make the story better, But
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: he got picked up by the cops on the highway
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: from running like seventeen miles on the freeway after a
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: spring practice. Backers apparently had a good practice, have balled out.
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: He didn't need to watch the film.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and he went and ran on the freeway and
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: got you know, not pulled over. He's running, but got
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: picked up by the copsy half fast. Oh this is illegal,
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: you can't do this, picked him up, put him in
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: the back of the out card and drove him to
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: the stadium. But the dude is a dude, is a
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: wild man. But the second question I had, I would
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: love to hear a good recruiting story. We had heart.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: So let me let me give some context about like
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: what coach bo Polini had said. Coach Coach Pollini one
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: time was at a recruits house, he's trying to recruit
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: a kid, and in the back he hears a family
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: member of somebody else like watching porn.
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: So here's porn going on. While he's in Florida recruiting.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: He's pulled into like tough parts of California, trying to
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: pull up and go recruit somebody, and they take off
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: running and jump.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: The fence, thinking like the Feds are pulling up.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Do you have a good story, whether it's a fail, like,
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: whether it's a big fail, like I'll just do some
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: different next time, or something that's funny that you like
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: to talk about or just tell you know, the boys about.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, one AJ Brown said that Harball walked into his
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: house with cleats on.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: Correct, Yeah, but hor well, I didn't give us much,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: he said, I don't really have many.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was is crazy because Harballs, like everyone says,
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: he's the craziest recruiter. But aj Brown said that Harball
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: came into his house with his cleats on and refused
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: to get his cletes off, and he was like, I'm
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: for sure not going there, for sure not going to
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: that school. But what he says, I.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: Can understand that mine's not a home visit man.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: I'd go to my first first time as a full
• 29:09
