• 2:34
  Speaker 6: We did get started in the race and you kind
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: of start in at heats. They're like, really their heats
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: are going off like every ten minutes into the course,
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: so they kind of they kind of pair you with
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: When you sign up, you got to put your age
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: group down, you got to put like your gold time,
• 2:48
  Speaker 6: so they kind of pair you with people in that
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: similar age group in gold Time, so like people that
• 2:54
  Speaker 6: you can be competitive with. There was a couple of
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: teams out there that we're kind of neck and neck
• 2:59
  Speaker 6: with us the whole time.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: One of them had an uh did.
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: The listener beat you?
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: Oh no, they were in they were kind of like
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: in a different little bit division.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: But I did. I did see him.
• 3:13
  Speaker 6: I did see him a lot, so I spoke to
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: him before the race and after the race they got
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: they went I think their meat heat went off like
• 3:19
  Speaker 6: ten or twenty minutes right after us. But I did
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: see him, so shut out. But yeah, we did. We
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: had like three people that we were that we could
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: recognize from our heat that were like kind of neck
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: and neck with us.
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: Beat them all. Not a big deal. They pulled a
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: head in the middle.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: We don't win, y'all.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: Seat.
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: I actually don't know how it worked out in the heat.
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: I didn't check it out. I'd never never really got
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: like logged in there. Probably no, probably not. I mean
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: I doubt it now. I don't like we we what
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: was your type respect hour fifteen?
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: But you wanted to finish.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: Hour and twenty was the goal?
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: Okay, hell yeah yeah, so like, but.
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: We really didn't know what was going to happen because
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: even in training and we never did the actual workout
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: of training. I probably ran twice as much during the
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: actual Hierarchs event than I did like in training. I
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: think we ran maybe four or five kilometers one time
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: and piometers no big deal, I found sound fancy when Yeah, not.
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: A big deal. We did that.
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: Uh, but we never did eight eight of them plus
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: everything else, So the.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: Bass a big deal.
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: I have a kind of good question that a listener
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: sent in earlier.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: I think it's a good question, but okay.
• 4:44
  Speaker 8: He basically was asking or he I can just play it,
• 4:47
  Speaker 8: but he was basically asking like what the significance of
• 4:50
  Speaker 8: hiring Heath Schroyer was, and like the Will Wade saga
• 4:53
  Speaker 8: that was going on, and he's just wondering, like why
• 4:59
  Speaker 8: was he the important piece there and why wouldn't Will
• 5:04
  Speaker 8: just directly report to the athletic director verge Osberry as
• 5:08
  Speaker 8: opposed to Heath coming in and kind of focusing on
• 5:12
  Speaker 8: basketball and helping Will. And I think that what it
• 5:16
  Speaker 8: is is that they had a really good relationship at
• 5:18
  Speaker 8: McNeice and from what I understand, Heath Stroyer was like
• 5:23
  Speaker 8: really really good at fundraising and making connections and basically
• 5:27
  Speaker 8: getting money to McNeese. So I think what he's being
• 5:30
  Speaker 8: tasked with is that for basketball specifically and to get
• 5:36
  Speaker 8: Will the resources that he needs. And I think that
• 5:38
  Speaker 8: Will and him really really got along when he was
• 5:41
  Speaker 8: at mcneie, So I don't think one was coming without
• 5:45
  Speaker 8: the other. Yeah, well, in the fundraising aspect of it
• 5:51
  Speaker 8: is pretty important too, but which is a.
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: Big part of like college sport, which is what you
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: have to have none and and of course at a school,
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: especially at l s U, you are not going to
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: get anywhere near the line's share of the dedicated money
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: from the REV share you're gonna get a small percentage
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: of it, and they're not going.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: To guarantee you, Oh you're gonna have this budget. You're
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: gonna have that.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: It's up to guys like you Thrower to fundraise.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: It's up to.
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: It's not like situation where he made them guarantee him
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: a certain amount of money everything. You can't do that
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: because you don't really know. And you got you got
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: Kim ok, you got Jay Johnson. They all are going
• 6:30
  Speaker 6: to be very upfront with their needs as well, so
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: you have to You got a fundraise.
• 6:35
  Speaker 8: And I also think from what I'm also understanding is
• 6:38
  Speaker 8: that Wade Ruth is also really good at it too.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: I want to but okay, before we get into a
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: little bit more deeper into Will Wade knows basketball, I
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: want to Yeah, I want to talk about l SU
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: women's basketball, their season coming to an end and pretty dramatic,
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: extraordinary fashion, just classic March Madness bracket ending. We saw
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: a lot, We've seen a lot of crazy endings, a
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: lot of like those classic March Madness innings, buzzer beater shots,
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: and of course, unfortunately LSU women's basketball falls to Duke
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: eighty seven to eighty five on a last second incredible
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: shot from Duke there at the end.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: But LSU falls.
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: Their season comes to an end in the Sweet sixteen,
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: the fourth fourth Sweet Sixteen in a row for Kim
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: Moulke enter team, and a game which certainly wasn't just
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: lost in the last play. It was, you know, probably
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: a couple times throughout the game. You you probably probably
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: had moments where Duke went on a run. LSU was
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: down eighty three to seventy three, five minutes and eleven
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: seconds left in the game, so they fought back to
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: get into that position. They get up by one with
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: I don't remember how much time is on the clock
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: before the inbound play. The Duke runs a pretty actually
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: a pretty ballsy play, right They're down by one, and
• 8:03
  Speaker 6: they set up a they set up a play inbound
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: for a three pointer, and I thought, I.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Actually built They panicked a little bit like they we're
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: only down one in that situation, they had the ball
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: down by the goal. The girl panics kind of kicks
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: it back out for kind of an ill advised shot.
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Ashlyn Jackson, I believe for Duke low probability shot.
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: She sits Therehflage's playing good defensive. Flage actually almost gets
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: her hand on the ball on the inbound pass, Pump
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: fakes a three pointer, steps to the right, makes it.
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: It circles around the rim probably fifteen times, it feels like,
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: and then it drops. Heartbreak for LSU, heartbreak for Lasue fans,
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: heartbreak for Fage and all the seniors and all the
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: players on that team, kim Olki obviously, and just a
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: really sad way to end the season in a really
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: great game, really hard fought game. I mean, credit to
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: them for coming back here. It is we're showing you
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: at there, I mean almost pops out scenes if you're
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: a Duke fan. That's an incredible, incredible ending. Of course,
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: heartbreak for LSU. But you know, we want to do
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: a hat tip to LSU women's basketball for a season
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: well fought a lot of breakout players Malaysia full while
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: they played incredible all season. She had a season high
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: actually in this dude game of twenty eight points. Mikayla
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: Williams had twenty two points. So LSU finishes their season
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: with a twenty nine and six record. As it comes
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: to close, and LSU was, like I said, fourth straight
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: sixteen sweet sixteen appearance. So that made a lot of news,
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: of course, but it didn't make us. A lot of
• 9:43
  Speaker 6: news came afterwards as well. Let me tell you there's
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: some there's some people out there who're just idiots, right.
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: A lot of people take it, try to take advantage
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: of people. A lot of people try to take advantage
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: of news out there. There's a lot of idiots out
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: there making fake posts and fake accounts on Twitter, which
• 10:06
  Speaker 6: is it's a resource that people get a lot of them.
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: I would say a lot of people get most of
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: their information from is from social media, and people are
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: pretty reckless out there with what they try to do
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: and just because they get their jolly's from it of
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: stirring the pot a little bit, and people out there
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: posting about kim Oke's fake retirement. She had to answer
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: this after her team gets ousted in the Sweet sixtent.
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: They have to answer. She's got to answer from credible
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: reporters who are reading this. They're like, well, we got
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: to like figure it out, like we don't, we don't
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: really know, but this is going around Twitter. She's got
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: to answer retirement questions after her team suffers a heartbreaking loss,
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: which is absolutely ridiculous, irresponsible people out there, So screw
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: you guys out there, whoever you are pretty dumb.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: So I mean, I can I can give you the name.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: It's it's Tyler Dagel and it's not a real person.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: Like that's I've read that too.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: It's like a it's like an AI generated. There's three.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: It's Tyler Daige, Old Joseph A Bear is another name,
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: and like they're just you know, it's one of those

  Speaker 5: Not the family photo.
• 11:18
  Speaker 8: No, it was literally just like a picture of himself
• 11:21
  Speaker 8: and now.
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: His whole family.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: So there's like you look at it close up, you
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: can tell that it's it's fake. But uh he uh
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: kind of popped up the whole L s U coach
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: and search like football, it just changed.
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: He's like, you're gonna call me fake family.
• 11:42
  Speaker 8: I mean the header literally says B S L s
• 11:45
  Speaker 8: U and people are falling.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: For this, covering L s U and baseball co host
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: of the B S L s U podcast, and it's where.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Is the pop?
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: Nobody can find it.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: So he's one of them.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: Joseph Abar is another which I remembered from a from
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: football season. He looks like he could be T BOP's cousin,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: right right, and that's probably why they made it look like.
• 12:05
  Speaker 8: That's this is what T bob and chat GBT and
• 12:07
  Speaker 8: they were like, this not look like him.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: This is Joseph.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: The rest of them, like the heading and everything is
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: the exact same.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: So these guys popped up during the and there were
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: some information that was correct, but all they were really
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: doing was like, oh we heard this and this, let's
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: put it out there see if it sticks.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: And some of it did, so people were like, are
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: they real? Are they fake? These are very much fake?
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: People like somebody runs the account, but like there is
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: no Joseph Abert Tyler Dagel.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: There's actually a third.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: One in the guy's name I cannot remember, but there's
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: three accounts and they popped up during football season, and
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: uh yeah, I mean.
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: Now you're allowed to have satire accounts, which you have
• 12:42
  Speaker 6: to put it. I think the rules of Twitch you
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: have to put parody on there.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Imagine B S L s U in the header probably counts.
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: I don't know, because you don't really know what BS
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: stands for or could stand for. So pretty sure you're
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: in your bio or your info about you you have
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: to put If you're a parody account, you have to
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: put parody or satire or something, or you can get
• 13:09
  Speaker 6: kicked off. And I know a lot of people reported
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: these jackalobes.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, but there's a real person running the account.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: In all likelihood, these were not real people.
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: I found the other guy.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: Here's the other one, James Robshow James, you're just giving.
• 13:24
  Speaker 8: Themselves like Louisyana and they're like, we got this Joseph
• 13:28
  Speaker 8: a Bear and yeah, that's the third one.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're all they're all kind of part of
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: the same.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: Can't believe he changes picture to the family picture.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah it was. I think it was just the thick
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: of him.
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: It was just a hedshot.
• 13:41
  Speaker 8: People are calling me fake.

• 13:55
  Speaker 2: I'm sure Malki hated it.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: That's stupid that you have to answer that.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: Like it was funny in the post game, somebody goes,
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: I have to ask this random report popped up, and
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: Kim goes, well, that's why my phone was blowing up.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: I had like a thousand text messages after the game.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: Who asked a question.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: I don't remember.
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: The sword, Kim.

• 14:40
  Speaker 3: in the Sweet sixteen, Like, yeah, I told you before
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: the show.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: I thought this team reached their peak this year. I
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: thought they were elitated best.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: They didn't have a ton of like pure post players
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: like Coobal stepped up a little bit and my Adjoiner
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: stepped up, but I thought they lacked their molkey. Would
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: be crazy to retire. You're losing to my Adjoiner and
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Flage Johnson. Everybody else is coming back. If you'll talk
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: about Grace Knox, I mean she's popped up her about
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: freshman Bella Hines, freshman, Caleb Williams back Malaysia. Full Wiley
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: has the ability to be back now with portal. We
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: don't know what any of these players are going to do.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: They could literally all enter the transfer portal if they
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: wanted to. But you have the ability to get all
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: of these players back and have a really good basketball
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: team next year.
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so we'll be excited. Of course.

  Speaker 4: I did find it very uh.
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: I found her responses to all the questions and everything
• 15:39
  Speaker 6: before her game about the Will Wade situation awesome.
• 15:43
  Speaker 8: It was really funny with again Cobble. She was like, oh,
• 15:48
  Speaker 8: look it's Will Wade's favorite reporters.
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: That was so good. It was amazing. I loved it.
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: And then she gets asked a question at her press
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: conference since she said, I'm focusing on my teams like
• 15:59
  Speaker 6: she handled every thing, I thought the right way.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: I love the energy, I love the attitude. That's why
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: she's great.
• 16:05
  Speaker 6: That's why she commands respect from all of her players
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: and all of her assistants and and the fan base.
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: Of course, it's because that's the fire that we love, right,
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: that's the fire that makes her great, made her one
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: of the greatest of all time. So a lot of
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: respect to her in the way she handled that situation
• 16:21
  Speaker 6: focusing on her team and she doesn't need to be
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: focused on any other team. She didn't be focused on
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: the men's team who were terrible this year and just
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: hired a new coach. You don't even focus We got
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: sweet sixteen game? Yeah, why answer it? Why answer anything
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: except about your ladies. So good for her, and that's

• 16:43
  Speaker 6: hat tip to the Lady Tigers on their season heartbreaking loss.
• 16:48

  Speaker 6: a little bit of blow on this past Wednesday, this
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: past Thursday, practice Taylor, you can kind of give us
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: a little bit more insight info on this. But Gabriel
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: Weatherford Rutherford got injured confirmed towards a cl So for
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: the second year in a row, he'll have a season
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: ending energy what will likely be put him out for
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: all of the season next year.
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: Of course, last year he comes.
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: In highly recruited edge rusher and he comes out hurts
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: us gets hurt is his shoulder.
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: This past year, Yeah, shoulder surgery five weeks in, maybe
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: six weeks in somewhere somewhere around the halfway point.
• 20:51
  Speaker 6: So certainly from a personal standpoint, you feel terrible for
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: the kid. I'm sure he worked his tail off to
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: get back and get healthy and then practice number two
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: in spring ball in March, you tell your ACL, you
• 21:04
  Speaker 6: get news that you're going to miss the next season.
• 21:07
  Speaker 6: So heartbreaking, certainly for the kid, you feel for him,
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: heart goes out them.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: Wish him a speedy recovery.
• 21:15
  Speaker 6: But from a team perspective, what we all have to
• 21:19
  Speaker 6: focus on as well is what is Lane Kiffing and
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: staff going to do? And Lane Kiffin was asked about
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: it and he said, look, that's why we go out
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: and we sign a billion people in the transfer portal
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: because there is no longer is there the spring portal.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: Because so what you have is what you got to
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: go what you got to go into season with.
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: So that's why you bring so many people in and
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: certainly they did that. So, yeah, Taylor, were you at
• 21:43
  Speaker 6: Were you at practice when this happened?
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: How did you get They found out it broke Saturday?
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: From what I understand, it did not happen Saturday. It
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: happened beforehand. Believe this actually happened on the Thursday practice.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: It just the news broke on Saturday. So no, it
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: was out there when it actually happened. But look, you
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: know we had talked about it coming into last year
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: about Hey, Gabrie Rollafrids, you're only returner. You saw some
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: flashes from him as a freshman. He was kind of
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: that that one constant last year when he went down,
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: it really hurt you because you had Jack Piburn, Patrick Payton,
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Jamari Butler. None of them lived up the expectation that
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: you thought they were going to. But even with those
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: guys as a three man rotation, Dylan Carpenter got kind
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: of thrown into the fire as a former walk on,
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: and Carpenter did some nice things for you, like he's
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: he's actually had a pretty good spring so far by
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: all accounts. But you were talking about Lane Kiff and saying, hey,
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: this is why we attacked the portal so hard because
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: you don't have that spring window. You brought in Jordan
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: Rowss from Tennessee, a guy who hadn't played a ton,
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: a lot of hype around him, former five star, former
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: five star. Same thing with Jaylen Brown coming over from
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: South Carolina, Prince Will lu Mon, Miellen, the really good
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: pass rusher from Ole, miss who came over with him.
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: You have him, You still have Dylan Carpenter. Last year,
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: this would have been a lot bigger blow than this year. Like,
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: don't get me wrong, it's going to hurt you. Like
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: gaber Relevant, I think is a good player. He was
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: going to make an impact for this team. But you're
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: early enough in spring to where you can figure this out.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: You can find hey, I can have this guy. He
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: can give me this many minutes. This guy can give
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: me this many plays. We can use this guy in
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: this situation. You're going to be fine. I mean, I
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: don't think this is like, oh, gaber Relevant towards ACL
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: You're no longer a national championship contender. It's going to
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: hurt your depth. I think you had a lot of
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: depth there. But I think you did a good enough
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: job in the portal that you should be able to
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: overcome this.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: Releford and Dylan Carpenter had been reported to be working
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: with the second team during at least the first practice
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: of spring, which is the first priory to the spring.
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: There's no like, there's no set depth chart.
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: But it's not like we're losing one of He wasn't
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: going to be that starter edge rusher, but certainly the
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: depth at a position that this past year was not productive.
• 23:55
  Speaker 6: Our defense was so good, we just didn't have that
• 23:58
  Speaker 6: edge Russia that could change a game or at least
• 24:01
  Speaker 6: change a possession with his play and be that threat.
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: And a lot of guys that we thought were going
• 24:07
  Speaker 6: to come and make an impact, just at the end
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: of the year, it didn't have that statistical impact that
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: you wanted to. So look, we wish him a speedy recovery,
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: and it socks man like. Injuries are of course part
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: of sports, They're part of the game. You I hate
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: to see it happening in spring practice. It stinks and
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: to have your season taken away in March is a
• 24:37
  Speaker 6: pretty crappy thing. So again, we wish him a speedy recovery.
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: Our heart goes out to him. But like Taylor just
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: laid out, that's why you go out and you bring
• 24:47
  Speaker 6: in Prince will whom and me Ellen, you bring in
• 24:51
  Speaker 6: a former five star Jordan Ross. So hopefully we get
• 24:53
  Speaker 6: that production from them, and certainly we didn't want to
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: lose that depth.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: But Taylor, so you practice sadder day? Right? Yeah?
• 25:01
  Speaker 6: How how did he go? How long is the media
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: getting to stay out of everything?
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: Thirty minutes on Saturday, which a lot shorter than you
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: would think. I mean, remember last year in fall camp
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: like during the week was the same. Kelly would give
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: those fall practices during fall camp and you'd be out
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: there hour a half two hours on a Saturday. Sometimes
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: it's about thirty minutes. Nothing really that you didn't see
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: Tuesday or Thursday. Anyone was wondering because you know Sam
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: levit's not going to do eleven on eleven, He's going
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: to do everything else. But that if you were wondering,
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: is who saw on Long Street? And land and Clark
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: going to alternate days with eleven on eleven?
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: Not right now?
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: Land of Clark again was out there as the number
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: one quarterback when they went eleven on eleven. He is
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: QB one right now. With Sam Levin being out to me,
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: that's not unexpected. I really like Landon Clark and he
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: looks good out there, and who's on Long Street? That
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: kind of a tough day when for five eleven on
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: eleven with the TUESDA there appears to be a clear one,
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: two three wide receiver because they're rotating a ton of guys.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: I mean they brought in what fifty five wide receivers
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: are the portal We talked about it all the time,
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: but the top three have pretty much consistently been Jason Brown, Jackson, Harris, Winston, Watkins.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, those have kind of been the three now.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: They've rotated in.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: And out, but as far as your first three, if
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: you will go out there, it's it's kind of been
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: those guys every time. I did think it was interesting
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: Harlan Berry took all the first team reps have running
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: back with the ones that had not been the case.
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: It had kind of been fifty to fifty between him
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: and Durham. Not a huge deal. They're both going to
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: play a ton. I mean it's you have two starters.
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: I mean it's it's one.
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: It's like the one position that it's no news, right,
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: no news is good news from that running back grow
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: they might one day be like, all right, Harlan, we're
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: doing third down pass protet like it's third down pressures
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: from six to ten like that you struggle with this
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: last year.
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: You're gonna get all the reps this year.
• 26:48
  Speaker 9: Whatever.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: Oh line.
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: It's kind of been the same rotation for two days now.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: Left right, it's been Jordan Seeden, Devin Harper, the guard
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: transfer from Ole Miss Braylan Moore obviously at center, Aliu
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: Bo who's one of my favorite players. He started what
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: twenty three consecutive games at Maryland at right guard. He's
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: gonna slider it in there, and Weston Davis at right tackle,
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: but I think that job's kind of open. He brought
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: over Sean Tompkins from Baylor, who played a little bit
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: of left and right. But with Seaton at left, you
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: you're pat to play at times a lot better on
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: the right side. And I Brice did Martinez. I mean,
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: he's kind of running second team left tackle right now,
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: but he looks good. And he played a lot of
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: right tackle in high school as well as tight end.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, we we saw the we played the highlight
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: clip of him. The guy played tackle, tight end, receiver, quarterback.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's a he's an athletic freak. He's about
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: six seven, six eight. That's a guy that's gonna be
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: tough to keep off the field. Like whether it's in
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: a starting role or a rotational piece on that O line,
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Martinez is gonna be hard to keep off the field.
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: How's a five star plus down?
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Which one?
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: We have more than one five star?
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: Because Mr Brown's not out there. Mar Brown's ill get
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: here to the fault. Now you're too, you're too big
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: time freshman defensive tackle Richard Anderson induced Geralds. They're repping
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: with ones like Deucee Gerald's was out there with the
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: ones again on Saturday. Anderson and Tomina McKinley have kind
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: of rotated at the second defensive tackle spot. But I
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: mean both of those guys. I mean, if things hold up,
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: I get it spring and a lot of change. But
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: this guy's repping with ones right now.
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: Well, I see this who's on Long Street. How has he?
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: I know you want to know for five and team,
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: but just like from a watching him throw, whether it's
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: some warm ups, whether it's routes on air, whatever it is,
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: like how does he how does the ball look come
• 28:30
  Speaker 6: out of his hand? Because I could tell you I
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: saw a couple of clips of them thrown. I didn't
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: love his throw.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: He's weird throwing most He mostly.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: Got a lot going back. It's almost like that.
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: Pitcher you see that's like three quarter arm, you know
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: that has a weird delivery. Kind of looks like that,
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: but I mean it looks solid. He's getting the ball
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: out to where he needs to in like team period
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: seven to seven and that I mean, but he's.
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: Got a lot happen on his takeaway or just takeaways,
• 28:53
  Speaker 6: like taking the ball away from like when you're when
• 28:55
  Speaker 6: you're seated and you got both hands on you're taking
• 28:57
  Speaker 6: away and it's going back. He's got a lot going
• 28:59
  Speaker 6: on back there. Usually the more you have going on
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: at your takeaway, there's a lot more room for air.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: Where it does.
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: It might not pop out might like something might not
• 29:07
  Speaker 6: pop up seven times out of ten, but three times
• 29:12
  Speaker 6: something just a little wrong. Your risk gets a little
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: over rotated or under rotated. It just there's all the
• 29:17
  Speaker 6: less that can in your takeaway that can happen. The
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: tighter it is, the more like you are to be
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: consistently accurate. I just didn't there was a couple of
• 29:27
  Speaker 6: clips I didn't like it. I do like Lanta Clark's motion.
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: I felt like the clips that I've seen from him
• 29:34
  Speaker 6: is the boss coming out of his hand pretty nice.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's running a little bit too. I mean he's
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: an athletic guy, which we kind of do coming in,
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: and so is so is long Street. Like I actually

• 32:47
  Speaker 9: Big time on their shride a little bit.
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: They did find their stride in a a weekend full
• 32:53
  Speaker 6: of excitement.
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: Yes, it starts out, starts out a little slow.
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: You know, we talked about a couple of weeks ago,
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: we were about Cason Evans he I think we talked
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: about out of the Vanderbilt. Well it was straight out
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: and but then last last week comes out looking like
• 33:06
  Speaker 6: a dog.
• 33:07
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: Then this weekend gets a little wild up front.
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: So it starts out, we start, but he does show
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: that he's still got the stuff. He's got a little
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: wild early, but he kind of so he kind of
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: calmed the storm a little bit.
• 33:17
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 33:18
  Speaker 6: How do you feel about Cason Evans so far this
• 33:20
  Speaker 6: season as the Friday Night guy?
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: I like it.
• 33:23
  Speaker 7: I Mean it goes back and forth and opinions changed
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: week to week, but I think, look, I know Cason
• 33:28
  Speaker 7: very well, got to know him. That's a tough kid,
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: you know, and he's a grinder, he's a dog, he's
• 33:35
  Speaker 7: mentally he's there.
• 33:36
  Speaker 9: I think he's going to be and he's doing great.
• 33:39
  Speaker 7: You know, through six, gave up four you know, walked
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: the first two guys right out to shoot this Friday
• 33:45
  Speaker 7: and kind of like just got off to a bad start,
• 33:47
  Speaker 7: but you know, ended up being all right. And that
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: was a game that look for LSU against the guy
• 33:53
  Speaker 7: that they went against on Friday from Kentucky, that kid
• 33:57
  Speaker 7: just you know, sometimes you got to tip your cap,
• 34:00
  Speaker 7: goes eight innings, you know, gives up two runs and
• 34:03
  Speaker 7: it's one of those kind of yes, you know, and
• 34:05
  Speaker 7: that's just how it is Friday Night and the sec
• 34:07
  Speaker 7: sometimes it gets the best of you. And then you
• 34:09
  Speaker 7: know they come back Saturday Sunday and they get the
• 34:12
  Speaker 7: best of them.
• 34:12
  Speaker 9: And so that's you know, that's what's awesome about it?
• 34:14
  Speaker 7: And it was a little uh, it was fiery, you know,
• 34:18
  Speaker 7: which I love, which we needed, but you need, Yeah,
• 34:21
  Speaker 7: that might be what this team is like. You never
• 34:23
  Speaker 7: know they could have you know, that stupid you know
• 34:26
  Speaker 7: the bat flip which was awesome you know and and
• 34:28
  Speaker 7: emotional and awesome and.
• 34:30
  Speaker 9: Not David was stupid.
• 34:33
  Speaker 7: Jay gets fired up and starts, you know, throwing f
• 34:36
  Speaker 7: bombs at people, and like, maybe that's what this team needs.
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: And you know, that might be something that that was
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: their thing that was who knows.
• 34:43
  Speaker 9: I think it was them.
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: They found that, the offense found each other, you know,
• 34:48
  Speaker 7: that's how they do it.
• 34:49
  Speaker 9: Maybe, who knows.
• 34:50
  Speaker 6: Let's go let me ask you this, like to stick
• 34:53
  Speaker 6: on the Jay Johnson thing getting fired up like you
• 34:57
  Speaker 6: you've been around him. What is it like when you
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: got a coach that is seemingly usually calm, cool, collective,
• 35:08
  Speaker 6: silent confidence a lot of times, what happens when your
• 35:13
  Speaker 6: coach does something like that, especially in defense of one
• 35:16
  Speaker 6: of his players.
• 35:17
  Speaker 9: What's the best?
• 35:17
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, you don't to have a coach like
• 35:20
  Speaker 7: that who's gonna have your back, you know, support you,
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: back you up in a time where he probably doesn't
• 35:27
  Speaker 7: really want to or have to, right, you know, that's
• 35:29
  Speaker 7: a that's a moment where he's like, you know, my
• 35:32
  Speaker 7: player probably shouldn't have done that realistically, but you know,
• 35:35
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna have his back and have this teams back
• 35:37
  Speaker 7: in to do it in that kind of fashion that
• 35:40
  Speaker 7: just goes a long way in a player's mind. And
• 35:42
  Speaker 7: even like, you know, I look back at the second
• 35:44
  Speaker 7: inning where they're down seven to nothing, and you know,
• 35:48
  Speaker 7: Jay's just going, I'd never seen it before.
• 35:50
  Speaker 9: He's in the.
• 35:50
  Speaker 7: Dugouts, throwing water bottles around the clipboards.
• 35:53
  Speaker 9: Is kind of like a different style of coaching, yep.
• 35:56
  Speaker 7: And that's what makes him a great coach is he knows,
• 35:58
  Speaker 7: I think, how to get to players and maybe he
• 36:00
  Speaker 7: figured out maybe maybe this is what this team needs.
• 36:02
  Speaker 7: They need a little kicking the ass or some fire.
• 36:06
  Speaker 6: And he said it after the after the game in
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: the press Converse series like sometimes like when you get
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: your manhood challenged, you got to step up. Do you
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: think that was Baseball in general challenging Kentucky challenging or
• 36:19
  Speaker 6: maybe him challenging his players.
• 36:21
  Speaker 9: I think it's a mix of both.
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 36:24
  Speaker 7: I think that's his job is to challenge these guys
• 36:27
  Speaker 7: and get the best out of them. And he's good
• 36:29
  Speaker 7: at it. He's very good at getting putting people in
• 36:31
  Speaker 7: the right situations and getting the best out of his players.
• 36:34
  Speaker 7: And I think that was just another way of him
• 36:36
  Speaker 7: doing it. And look, he's been thrown out, you know,
• 36:40
  Speaker 7: I don't know four or five times at LSU all
• 36:43
  Speaker 7: when I was there. I don't think he got thrown
• 36:44
  Speaker 7: out two years ago. A good chance that I pissed
• 36:49
  Speaker 7: somebody off or trying to fight somebody. But you know,
• 36:54
  Speaker 7: I totally forgot where I was going with that. But
• 36:56
  Speaker 7: he just when when he does it, he doesn't do
• 36:59
  Speaker 7: it a lot. It's the right moment, and usually on
• 37:04
  Speaker 7: the back end of it, the team goes out there
• 37:06
  Speaker 7: fired up, like ready to get somebody, you know, And
• 37:09
  Speaker 7: it's just I was surprised they didn't throw him out.
• 37:12
  Speaker 9: Or throw somebody out yesterday.
• 37:13
  Speaker 7: But you know, it goes to show you Jay's got
• 37:17
  Speaker 7: this team's back, and he's not you know, giving in
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: or folding or like, you know, he's just that good of.
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: A Yeah, that's a good catcher too. Like if something's happening,
• 37:25
  Speaker 6: it's it's gone a little too long. You want them
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: to figure it out themselves, and you're still learning your team.
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: But at some point you gotta you gotta step up
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: a little bit. And Jay's the Jay's That's why he's
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: the go. He needs to go.
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: He knows exactly when to push and pull and how
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: to push the buttons. And it certainly worked. Let's so
• 37:41
  Speaker 6: let's stick with the pitching. Yeah, we taught Case and
• 37:43
  Speaker 6: Evans and being on the Friday night well ls, she
• 37:46
  Speaker 6: wins with the football score yesterday seventeen to ten. They
• 37:49
  Speaker 6: roll through eight pitchers, and that we're able to write
• 37:52
  Speaker 6: the ship a little bit from from early on. A
• 37:54
  Speaker 6: lot of a lot of walks, giving up too many basses,
• 37:56
  Speaker 6: free bases. But one thing that let them allowed them
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: to do that was a Saturday performance. You go through
• 38:02
  Speaker 6: two pitches, well Schmid and Zach Collen like they pitched
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: so well. What is that like because of the injury? Now,
• 38:09
  Speaker 6: what does that mean? Is there some like one of
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: these starters either Friday or Saturday. Do we have to
• 38:15
  Speaker 6: have a game like that every SEC series that you're
• 38:19
  Speaker 6: only going to go through two pitchers or have your
• 38:20
  Speaker 6: starter roll through a lot of innings.
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: It's that kind of like the need that to really
• 38:25
  Speaker 7: do well, you need that once a week because it's
• 38:29
  Speaker 7: gonna be hard. That Sunday now is gonna be like
• 38:32
  Speaker 7: it's a typical Sunday in the SEC. You see it
• 38:34
  Speaker 7: all over you know, Tennessee Vanderbilt sixteen to fifteen, LSU
• 38:37
  Speaker 7: seventeen to ten. It's these high scoring games because you're
• 38:40
  Speaker 7: going through a lot of guys that probably don't get
• 38:42
  Speaker 7: as many innings as you know, they they need to
• 38:46
  Speaker 7: be great and so you're scoring a lot of runs,
• 38:47
  Speaker 7: you're walking guys. It's just one of those things on
• 38:50
  Speaker 7: a Sunday game in the SEC, and so that Friday
• 38:53
  Speaker 7: and Saturday you really need one of those that Saturday
• 38:57
  Speaker 7: game where you use two guys that go through nine
• 38:59
  Speaker 7: innings or you need that starter to go seven or
• 39:03
  Speaker 7: you know, and that's something that Elise you can do,
• 39:06
  Speaker 7: you know, and we've seen it, like Cason goes almost
• 39:08
  Speaker 7: eight innings last week and then this this week you
• 39:11
  Speaker 7: have a you know, William Smith, Zach Cowen, and to
• 39:13
  Speaker 7: have Cowen kind of step up a little bit mature
• 39:17
  Speaker 7: and get through his little hump at the beginning of
• 39:19
  Speaker 7: the season. That's huge for Isshoe because he's one of
• 39:22
  Speaker 7: those guys that can give you those four innings, that
• 39:24
  Speaker 7: can give you those five innings in a relief appearance,
• 39:26
  Speaker 7: or maybe even if they don't have to use him
• 39:28
  Speaker 7: on a Friday Saturday, start that Sunday game. You know,
• 39:31
  Speaker 7: he's one of those versatile guys that can get the
• 39:34
  Speaker 7: job done.
• 39:34
  Speaker 9: In a lot of different different ways.
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: Let's talk about beta moves from other teams as a picture.
• 39:43
  Speaker 6: Have you ever been stared down after walking a guy
• 39:47
  Speaker 6: by the head coach, by your head coach, not the
• 39:49
  Speaker 6: other team.
• 39:50
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean a pretty week.
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: Okay, people talking about the bat flip, Well, he might
• 39:55
  Speaker 6: have just slipped the right at their dugout after That's how.
• 39:59
  Speaker 7: They play, like, that's how they do their Kentucky team.
• 40:02
  Speaker 7: They've always always come on I always like that, And
• 40:05
  Speaker 7: that's just beta energy.
• 40:07
  Speaker 9: That's how he rolls, like he tried. They do antics.
• 40:10
  Speaker 7: They're doing cheers and chance in the dugout like it's softball,
• 40:13
  Speaker 7: you know, like it's it's just a lot, you know,
• 40:15
  Speaker 7: it's it's just too much.
• 40:17
  Speaker 9: Not a fan of.
• 40:18
  Speaker 6: The my son's they do chance. That's awesome, Yeah, good
• 40:22
  Speaker 6: for them. I don't even remember the chance that we
• 40:25
  Speaker 6: used to do.
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: I mean they probably not.
• 40:29
  Speaker 6: It probably shouldn't be in Division one ten years. Great,
• 40:33
  Speaker 6: So let's talk about the bat flip. What do you
• 40:35
  Speaker 6: what are what are your thoughts on the battle? I
• 40:37
  Speaker 6: mean it was incredible execution, incredible technique.
• 40:40
  Speaker 7: The execution of the bat flip was incredible. Yeah, and
• 40:43
  Speaker 7: he didn't hurt anybody, not going in the dugout, not
• 40:46
  Speaker 7: throwing it on the fields, perfect placement.
• 40:49
  Speaker 9: You know, I think what is is a picture when
• 40:52
  Speaker 9: someone bat flips just take me out the game. Just
• 40:55
  Speaker 9: take me out the game. Well, if you're going to
• 40:56
  Speaker 9: bat flip like that, yeah, you know I might sometimes
• 41:00
  Speaker 9: I just gotta fight.
• 41:01
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean sometimes there's one going into the next
• 41:04
  Speaker 7: guy's rip.
• 41:05
  Speaker 9: You know, it's just is.
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: That an old school move?
• 41:07
  Speaker 6: Do you think that's what's gonna I mean, I know
• 41:10
  Speaker 6: it's harder in college to do that. Are some people
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: are gonna sell police the batflip situation because everybody's.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: Doing it now.
• 41:19
  Speaker 7: Everybody does it, and that's the only that's one of
• 41:22
  Speaker 7: the only things you see now is when people get
• 41:24
  Speaker 7: into this kind of little thing where they have the
• 41:25
  Speaker 7: umpires have to stop and it's the bat flips, right,
• 41:28
  Speaker 7: Just like I understand the bat flip like it's an
• 41:30
  Speaker 7: emotional thing, like you're just especially in a big situation.
• 41:34
  Speaker 7: You know, it may have been a little too high, sure,
• 41:36
  Speaker 7: you know, but it's emotional man, Like I understand it,
• 41:40
  Speaker 7: Like I get Seth's point of view, Like.
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: I'm let's go, oh, it's fantastic.
• 41:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but I'm just saying going forward, like it's gonna
• 41:50
  Speaker 6: everybody likes the one up. The barg is gonna keep
• 41:52
  Speaker 6: getting higher and higher. I don't know how you get
• 41:54
  Speaker 6: higher than that from like a flip flips and those
• 41:57
  Speaker 6: triple digits in the feet. I don't know, like the
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: bar keeps getting Like I just want to know, from
• 42:03
  Speaker 6: a pitcher standpoint, do you start to self regulate, self
• 42:08
  Speaker 6: police these things.
• 42:10
  Speaker 7: It's hard to because they're gonna put it. They're gonna
• 42:12
  Speaker 7: put an end to it.
• 42:14
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 42:14
  Speaker 7: You know, If I if I if somebody bat flips
• 42:16
  Speaker 7: me and I go drill somebody in the ribs the
• 42:18
  Speaker 7: next pitch, I'm getting thrown out the game.
• 42:21
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it'd be awesome, electric a legend.
• 42:24
  Speaker 6: But if you gave up, if you gave up a
• 42:26
  Speaker 6: three round homer, you're probably coming out anyway, good chance,
• 42:29
  Speaker 6: So you might as well take someone out with you.
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: I'm in so I start saying it.
• 42:35
  Speaker 7: I think it's more of a thing in Major League baseball. Unfortunately,
• 42:38
  Speaker 7: the college thing is so regulated from this standpoint that
• 42:42
  Speaker 7: it'll never like get crazy like that.
• 42:44
  Speaker 9: I wish it.
• 42:45
  Speaker 6: And plus, batters are now putting on so many belcrow paths. Body,
• 42:49
  Speaker 6: you gotta really hit them in a good spot.
• 42:50
  Speaker 9: Ebo Shield.
• 42:51
  Speaker 7: It's done a great job protecting players. Congratulations, But let
• 42:55
  Speaker 7: me drill somebody.
• 42:56
