• 1:00
  Speaker 4: .
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: How we doing?
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: When are you getting your replacement? I don't know.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: I got to find some. I know.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: It's really hard to find these little earbuds with a wire.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: I probably should have put in a lost and found claim.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: On the ones I left in the back of the air. Yeah,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: they probably did.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: How much would you have claimed those things for?
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: What, eight bucks?
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Priceless. I mean, they were beats, you know? I mean.
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Now, were they 16, 17 years old? They were, but
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: they still worked. You know?
• 1:34
  Speaker 6: Wait, I found some on Target's website.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: With the Apple ones.
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, the Apple ones with the wire.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: I haven't looked yet. I'm just going off what Flynn said,
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: which is probably always a bad idea.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, no.
• 1:48
  Speaker 7: They have some Walmart brand ones.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: I went to Walmart, Target.
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: I even went to a Walgreens right before I started
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: the show to try to find wired headphones. Could not
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: do it. Now, you could find them with the ones
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: with the Just the bud. I needed something that wrapped
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: around your ear.
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: Okay, so you got too picky with it then.
• 2:10
  Speaker 7: You just said you could find something, just not those
• 2:13
  Speaker 7: specific ones.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm a professional respected media member. I had to
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: have something that wraps around the ear.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: Obviously.
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: Obviously.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: If you would have explained that situation, they probably could
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: have done.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Something for you.
• 2:25
  Speaker 7: Apple has some for $ 19 on their website. Free next
• 2:28
  Speaker 7: day delivery. You can pick them up at the Apple
• 2:31
  Speaker 7: store in the mall.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: No, you don't want that. That's not real.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: You're right, my bad.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: They just hang on to the... They just barely hang
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: on to that earlobe.
• 2:44
  Speaker 6: But Jake's last one didn't have the... Did they go
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: around the ear?
• 2:47
  Speaker 8: Oh, they did.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: I was trying not to agree with Flynn.
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: Because he's a media member.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: I was trying to be quiet over here and not
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: get Flynn to spread it. Let me see.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: He's a media member, not as respected as I am.
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: They got some at Best Buy.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Oh, I believe you.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: I should never have believed Flynn. I went there, too.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: I even had somebody work there help me.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: What happened?
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: They were like, we ain't got him, buddy.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: 22 bucks.
• 3:13
  Speaker 6: 22 bucks at Best Buy.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: Maybe online.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: 22 doll hairs?
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: Try picking that up in person. I ain't got that
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: on the shelf.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Who does that? That's your fault.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: They got that in a warehouse somewhere.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: Then just order it.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was the day before the show started.
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: Oh, so you didn't plan correctly.
• 3:31
  Speaker 8: No.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: You've been here a while now.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: Well, I've had these. I got these babies in. Got
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: these on Amazon. Sent them right to my house. Dropped
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: them on the front door.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: That's probably what Best Buy would have done if you'd
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: have went online.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: I got these. These are like $ 13. They have lasted
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: since June 2nd last year.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: $ 13.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: And they look like they're custom fit for my ear canal.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like you're about to sing at a concert. Oh, yeah.
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: About to start singing, and then rip it off. Second verse,
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: I'm going to rip it off.
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: So you can hear the crowd?
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Well, it's like every concert that I've ever watched. They always.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: They rip it out so they can hear the crowd,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: but also it's just not right. They're hearing an echo
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: in their ear, and they just get so mad. They
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: rip it out.
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: Fix the echo.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: They shake their head, and they look to the side,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: and they just shake their head.
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: And you know one of his sound guys just messed
• 4:26
  Speaker 6: that up.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: It's like.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: You rehearsed this. It probably went fine in rehearsal. Why
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: does it always happen live?
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: They just shake their head.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: Kind of like the morning show technology sometimes.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: We don't rehearse it.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: The night before, though.
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: No, that's why we do.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: We don't even do a walkthrough.
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: That's why Matt group FaceTimes us.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: Jake, you got to answer next time, bud. Matt threw
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: out so many great ideas.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: We'll walk through the whole show.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: And go. What? With the great ideas.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: Oh, no.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: That's not fair.
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: You got to tease that, bud.
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: That's not for on-air consumption.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Oh, man. Well, hey, good morning.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Slow news day yesterday.
• 5:06
  Speaker 9: Oh, yeah.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Not a lot going on there.
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: People love that bit.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: I didn't consume much news.
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: Not a lot going on, huh?
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: You did what?
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: You did. SpaceX.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: I didn't consume much. I did. I consumed SpaceX. It's coming.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: But we were busy yesterday.
• 5:24
  Speaker 6: Rest in peace, Dolly.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Rest in peace, Dolly.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, that's the big one.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: That was part of the news I was talking about.
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: SEC versus Lane Kiffin.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: That might have happened, too. And we're going to get
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: to that, like, in full detail. But also, let's start
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: off giving a little shout-out to Dolly.
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: Shout-out, Dolly. A legend of her time.
• 5:47
  Speaker 9: 80? 80.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: 80.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: I actually kind of thought she was a little bit
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: older than that.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: I did, too, just because she's been in the spotlight
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: so long.
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: For so long. And still, just like. been crushing it
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: up until Reese. I feel like I seen her in
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: so many different things. Um, like she'll pop up at
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: a random sporting event, award ceremony, whatever, and just.
• 6:10
  Speaker 7: Start randomly have the Dallas Cowboys cheerleader outfit on 70
• 6:15
  Speaker 7: something years old.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah. She's crushing him. Um, yeah, that was sad news obviously.
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: But I did, I did think she was a little
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: bit older than 80 when, when I did hear the news.
• 6:26
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: Um, So very sad, very sad.
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: Rest in peace.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Is she on the Mount Rushmore of country singers?
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: That's a tough one.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: That's tough.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: She's in the conversation.
• 6:43
  Speaker 9: Oh, yeah.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can mention her for sure. That's tough, though.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: I feel like, you know, George Strait obviously is up there. Yeah.
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: I'll be honest, I didn't listen to a lot of
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: her music.
• 6:58
  Speaker 7: I know the popular ones, but I wasn't doing Dolly
• 7:01
  Speaker 7: Deep Dives.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Nah, me neither.
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: But she is an icon.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: A hell of a businesswoman, too.
• 7:09
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: I told y'all, she has like a pirate-themed musical dinner.
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: The Buc-ee's that she was going to do.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: In Panama City Beach.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: So they got one in Gatlinburg, too. She's got Stampede.
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: She's got that. She did a lot.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: I mean, Dolly.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Movies.
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: And at the time when we heard about the Buc-ee's thing,
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: we said nobody asked for this.
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: Nobody asked for it. I still stand by that.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: We did stand by it, but I'll be damned if
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: I wouldn't go. I was driving by.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: I got to visit now. I got to see it.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Out of respect, of course.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: Of course. Of course out of respect.
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: So are we going to do a little... Maybe some
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: Dolly music today?
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: How do we feel?
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's on Thursday. Today's R & B day. We
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: want the listeners to be able to count on.
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: It is our show.
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: Again, I would need y'all's help.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I would.
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: I know, Jolene, 9 to 5.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I'll always love you.
• 8:13
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: It doesn't have to be every break. Well, today's R
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: & B day, though. So we want the people that
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: listen every. Wednesday, like when Doc comes in here, they know, oh,
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Doc's here, and it's R & B day.
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: Hey, when you were gone, we didn't do R & B.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Well, that's on you as a bad host.
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: It was Saturday. Play the hits.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's plenty of R & B hits. I know.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: We play them. Played them for a year. For a year?
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: We didn't. It used to be Thursday. Then we changed it.
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: Yeah, why did we change it?
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: Because we were on location.
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: Jake needed to hear those jams. Yeah.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Half the reason I show up.
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: What's the other half?
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: The laundry and Tay-Tay.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: That is so fair.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Not you.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: That is absolutely fair. I'll give you a back update.
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: Still not feeling great. I was feeling pretty good yesterday.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: You got a leg up.
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: I do have a leg up. But then I got
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: in the car today. It's something about the seat of
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: the car, the way it's angled. Really tough to get out.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: And so we kind of regressed. I think we regressed
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: a little bit this morning.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: How are you getting out?
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: Are you just rolling?
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: I do like this little whole body spin thing. I
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: got to move everything. I can't twist. No twisting yet.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, wait, dude.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: How are you doing your ninja get up? You having
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: to put that on pause?
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: It hurts.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: I still do it. It just hurts, you know? You
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: can't not do it, so.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: You're obviously still doing it.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: I can't not do the ninja getup.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: I saw this guy on Sunday, again, hand on hip,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: showing my wife and my children where to put furniture.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: So I don't think he's doing any ninja getups.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: The problem is i'm not smart with my recovery i
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: get that um i was starting to feel pretty good
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: yesterday and then i decided to move a fridge up
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: some stairs perfect oh my god no wait what fridge
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: i had to get another one.
• 10:13

  Speaker 2: it's like.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: You're I had to go find a... No, my fridge
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: doesn't come out.
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: I had to go get a very economical, temporary fridge.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: You ain't got one of those all-white ones, did you?
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: Oh, baby.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: The hard plastic fridge.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, baby.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, baby. Those garage fridges.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: No water line or drainage necessary for this bad boy.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: You just plug it in.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: Plug her in.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Nice. Well done. Dude.
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: Woke up this morning. All my groceries are cold, though.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Who else helped you move that up there, bud?
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: Well, we had a construction demo started yesterday. Oh, yeah.
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: The house is, like, ripped open now a little bit.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: Not the walls yet, but the stuff inside. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: Ripped up. So I borrowed one of those fellas.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: You should have borrowed two.
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: I should have borrowed two.
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: Are you safe, fella?
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: I didn't. Are you safe, fella?
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Are you safe, fella?
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: I should have borrowed. But I was feeling good, man.
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: I was feeling cocky. I was feeling ready to roll.
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: I was like, man, look at this. I got locked
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: and ready to go. I almost touched my knees.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: On that note, when we come back, kind of decide here,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: because I did get a chance to go to practice
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: and sit there and watch the LSU Fighting Tigers on
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: the actual football field. We do know that the SEC
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: has come out and said that you can't play players
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: that have been professionals. That's in basketball, football. So we
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: got that to break down. A lot to get to here,
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: but it was very exciting to go watch a little
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: LSU practice compared to what it was just a year
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: ago at the same time. We'll talk about it all
• 11:54

  Speaker 2: allow for me to go watch.
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you left this show to go over there.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I had something to do. What was that?
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: Important.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: Watch practice.
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: And I did. And it was fun.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: I hope it was fun.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: I enjoyed it. It was. It was very fun. You
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: and I went to a practice last year. We couldn't
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: believe what we saw. Not in a good way.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was bad.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Not great. I had a completely different feeling watching this.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: And I kind of compared it to after coming off
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: the road and kind of evaluating how NFL teams practice
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: because not everybody does it well there either. Like, there
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: was some that I'm like, man, this is why they're
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: so good. And the Chiefs come to mind. I told
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: you this. Like, there was no wasted time, no wasted reps.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: Everything had a purpose. Everything had a plan. And everybody
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: was doing something. That's what I saw yesterday, too. So
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: it looked like a real practice. Yeah, I went to
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: another practice in the NFL, and it was like the
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: ones versus ones were going. They'd come off. Twos versus
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: two would go. They'd come off.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: Three versus.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: So everybody was standing around. This was not that. This
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: was like one field was going here, one field was
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: going there, and there was constant movement. And there was
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: coaches yelling, spot the ball, get a playoff. Even when
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: they took a break to go into the tent, It
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: was like, hey, let's get in there, let's get it done,
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: and let's get back out here. And I know you're
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: going to laugh. I know we've all made jokes about
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: how many coaches are on the staff. Every coach that
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: was out there was coaching and doing something. Like, I
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: know you're going to laugh. 50 through 80? And it
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: feels like a lot of people are out there. But
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: the coaches, like, along the side, behind the play, they're
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: yelling at somebody to do something.
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: And it was very efficient. Incredibly efficient. But, like, does
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: every player have a coach assigned to them?
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: So, I'm glad you asked. Like, the one offensive line is.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: It's a joke question, but it's almost like reality.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: There was a one offensive line over in one corner.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Next to them was a two offensive line, and each
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: had their own coach. They go and do a drill.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: I got a new respect for it. I'm telling you.
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: Good business if you can get it. If you have it.
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: If you can afford it.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: If you have the funds to hire 78, 79 coaches,
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: whatever the number is, I'm just telling you, they put
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: them to use. Look, I've laughed with y'all on this subject.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: If you take it out of context, that's such a
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: ridiculous statement.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: I know. What I say, if you went over there
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: and you watched all the different periods, I'll give them
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: their credits. Everybody was getting coached up. I appreciated it.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, I see it.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: That's great. It was.
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: So what you're saying is like in a normal team period,
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: you got the ones that will go and then they
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: come and they get water and watch the twos go
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: for four to six reps or whatever that is.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: That's not happening.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Well, everything's so fast. It's like everybody's kind of like
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: a little NASCAR change, just like running in, running out.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: And that's on one field. And then the other field's
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: got other threes, fours on that field. And they're kind
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: of doing the same thing. So there's not, you're never
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: going to sit for like a four minute, five minute period. Right.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: So, I mean, I would assume that, you know, certainly
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: all by design, obviously.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: And also it looked like they were in game week
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: prep as well.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's good. That's good. And I would assume that's
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: how all their practices are.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: Like there's, You can do as much as you want
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: to in the summer as far as conditioning goes.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: You can run 110s. You can run curves. You can
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: run gassers.
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: You can do all the conditioning you can.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: But once you put the pads on and start practicing football,
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: it's different. It's great to be in good shape because
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: that gives you a better foundation, a higher foundation. But
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: there's still a certain amount of conditioning that you have
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: football conditioners you have to get in. And with the
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: speed at which Lane likes to operate his offense– I
• 18:06
  Speaker 5: would assume that all of this is by design to
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: be active conditioning. They are, without running sprints and gassers,
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: maybe they still are doing that after practice.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I hope they are. Yeah, they are.
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: But during practice is the actual conditioning of football. You
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: have to, as an offense, you've got to be able
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: to go 8, 9, whatever, 10, maybe sometimes up to
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: 15 play drives, and go really fast.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: And as a defense, you've got to be prepared for
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: it as well.
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: So I would assume a lot of that is by
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: design just for the conditioning aspect of it.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: It was like they'd run a play, and then I swear, like,
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: it'd be three, four seconds, and there would be a
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: coach saying, why is the ball not snapped?
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: Oh, my gosh.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: It's been three seconds. So they're trying to go like,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: is Uber fast in that moment?
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: I cannot wait to watch it. I know LSU is
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: going to put up a lot of points. I think
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: as a quarterback, I'm looking at like my, I don't
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: know if I would have enjoyed that as a quarterback
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: or not. They go in the fast part.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: I don't think that at the next level, because the
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: playbook's completely different, it's bigger, there's more volume to it,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: you probably can't do something like that. But in college now,
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: with the old keep it simple stupid, like we're going
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: to run these things, 15 to 20 things and we're
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: going to have different variations of it that's how you're
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: able to go as.
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: Fast yeah and there certainly can't be you you have
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: to minimize the pre-snap adjustments that you can make so
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: like that was part of the game that i that
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: i enjoyed.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah well that's part of why you go so fast
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: was that so they can't do some of the things
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: that they want to do we saw that last year
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: because Blake Baker was sending a lot of different people
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: from a lot of different levels. You have to be
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: a little bit more basic, I guess, when the offense
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: is going that fast.
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: You've got to be very vanilla, for sure. It's going
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: to be exciting to watch. They went fast. That was different.
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: They're What a difference a year makes in between training camps.
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: I mean, nothing is the same as it was a
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: year ago.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: It doesn't look like a distant cousin to what we saw.
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: A year ago. But was it good? Yes.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: If it had been bad, I'd have been like, it
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: was fast. It was bad in a hurry.
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: It was bad in a hurry. They did a lot
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: of bad plays real fast.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it wasn't that. Again, like efficient is kind
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: of the word that I was using leaving that practice.
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: So did they– okay, you remember this one play– That
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: you used to run? Where, like, a guard pulls? The
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: guard pulls, it's a running play? Did you see a
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: guard pull?
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: I know if, let's see, a two pull, it's kind
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: of a counter.
• 20:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: It's a gap scheme run. Oh, power.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: Yes, I did see that.
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: You did? I did. It's in the playbook?
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: I did. It's in there. I'm not saying it was
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: their lead play by any means, but I also.
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: I feel like Lane's a big enough troll that he
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: used to run power first play.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: Also, yeah.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: First play.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: I also saw the running back do stretch footwork.
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: Ooh, nice.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Didn't have one of those either last year, by the way.
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: A stretch? Yeah.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: I love a good aiming point. It's going to be
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: the outside of the tackle, inside of the tight end,
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: and you're reading those blocks. One cut, put your foot
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: in the ground. Jake, why would you run outside when
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: you could just run inside? With a non-dual threat quarterback
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: running zone read.
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: But you could just run inside.
• 21:35
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: Second and one, third and one, fourth and one.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: You could two years ago.
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: But the thing about it is you could go right,
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: and then you could also go left.
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: So it keeps them guessing.
• 21:47
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: If you're not catching what he's talking about, he's talking
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: about last year's offense.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Good luck, Kentucky.
• 21:58
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: I don't think Kentucky's going to be very good this year.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Based off?
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: Based off what? Because LSU wasn't very good, and they
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: had a lot of talent. Did y'all see Nussmeyer play?
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: He did. Play in the NFL?
• 22:13
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: Did you see that play he made?
• 22:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: He looks good at practice.
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: Nussmeyer's going to be that backup, isn't.
• 22:21
  Speaker 9: He?
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Justin Fields is not very good.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Justin Fields standing in his way.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: Justin Fields is not very good at football.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: Now, the one thing that watching practice that I don't know,
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: is what the receiver rotation is going to be like.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Cause there's just like so many and they rotate in
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: all the time.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: So I know I'm bringing up all the time about
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: how many different receivers called passes last year. So like,
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: I'm to the point now, like somebody yesterday at the,
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: at the press conference, Ashley or Monday at the press conference,
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: ask Kiffin if they'd established like that number one go-to guy.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: And he's like, Oh, we're working on it. And I
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: don't know if that matters. I don't know if he
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: needs a top guy. Cause he's going to have, six, seven,
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: eight guys that are going to go out there and contribute.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: So it might be a different group every game.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: It could be.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: I do think, I do think even in that scenario,
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: you do want one guy that does stand a little
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: bit above everyone else. Cause they've had that in his
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: offenses before. It's not been a guy that's got 1800
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: receiving yards, but they've had a guy that is certainly
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: like 300 yards.
• 23:32
  Speaker 5: I wonder how that rotation works because, When the offense
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: goes on the field, they don't come off. So most offenses,
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: how they operate, they'll switch personnel, which allows the defense,
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: of course, to switch personnel as well. Well, Lane's offense
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: operates differently than that. They don't rotate in. They keep
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: one personnel out there. It doesn't allow the defense to
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: get fresh guys out on the field. So you're there
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: to wear the defense out. Now, you have to not
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: get worn out as well on offense, so I'm going
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: to be really interested in that first game to see
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: how the wide receiver rotation is. If there's like a, a,
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: a series one team series two, and they just rotate,
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: they rotate series. So, or is there, you have one
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: or two receivers that are going to be out there
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: for two series, one off two series, one off two series.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Like how does that rotation work?
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: Because if you have that many guys, like an Ole
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: Miss last year, if you have that many guys with
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: 600 plus yards receiving, they're not all out there at
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: the same time.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: They're rotating because you have to keep fresh legs, and
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: that is the benefit to the offense. You're going to
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: wear the defense down, especially if.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: You can sustain.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: You start going that fast, and you start getting close
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: to that 9-10 play in a drive mark, that defensive
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: line is going to be gassed.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, because if you don't sub, they can't sub.
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: And that is exactly why you practice and you train
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: like you saw yesterday.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Sometimes when you're a part of a rotation– Because I
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: can tell you, being a running back that we're always rotating,
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: sometimes you don't know. Sometimes you don't know. You look
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: over the sideline thinking, oh, I'm about to get taken out,
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: and they just wave you back on. Or sometimes they
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: wave you out when you think you're going really well.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: You never know sometimes. You've got to always be ready
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: to run in and out. The difference of what we
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: used to do compared to what this is, to your point,
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: you don't sub because you don't want them to be
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: able to sub. So you're staying with the same personnel,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: and you're going.
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: Then by the end of the drive, you're in the
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: red zone. and you need to pick up a few
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: yards on the ground, you're running against some very gas
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: defensive tackles.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: Last thing that I will say that was impressive to
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: me yesterday before we move on, I felt an old-school
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: nature from the strength staff.
• 25:45
  Speaker 9: Ooh.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: Like, some of the, you know, when a strength coach
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: talks and yells, like, sometimes, like, you still kind of, like,
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: look around your shoulder a little bit.
• 25:53
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Felt that a little bit.
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: Wait, is it like a strength coach group that, like,
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: expects relentless effort from the players? and pushes them to
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: give that relentless effort and yells at them if they
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: don't give that relentless effort?
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: Very much so. They make them strain in practice? Yeah. Like, wait,
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: the players have to strain very hard and work hard?
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and also that, because it has to happen, but
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: also the respect that a strength coach demands just by, like,
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: walking into a room or speaking up or saying something.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: We were in a team meeting yesterday. And the strength
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: coach walks in, says one word. And, you know, people
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: are talking in a team meeting before you get started.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: Like I said, one word, boom, quiet. I'm like, whew,
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: this feels familiar. That's the way it should be. You
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: know what I mean?
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: I was scrolling through the socials yesterday, and I went
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: by something with Tommy Moffitt on it, and I sat
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: up in my chair.
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: Right. It was like just a reflex.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just like any time I still see Coach Saban,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: like he'll walk by, we'll be at media days or whatever,
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: I'm kind of like, shoot, hold on.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: Hold on a second. Shirt wrinkled, hold on. Shoes tied.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: It felt that way. And that's not like, oh, man,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: they're scared. It's not scared. It's respect. And that respect
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: has to be earned. And that's a good thing to
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: see that it has been. It's good to hear. Yeah,
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: very exciting. Very exciting stuff.
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: Why were you in the team? You were in the team.
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: You're not on the team.

  Speaker 2: Once a Tiger, always a Tiger, bud.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: All right. Shoot.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: Know what they tell us?
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: Yep.

  Speaker 5: I'm just waiting for me and Miles Brennan to get
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: our invite. When are we getting our invite? You want
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: me to answer that or you want me to.
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: Break? Let's tease it.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: All right. Well, no, we're not teasing what you said.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: We will tease the SEC and what they first said
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: yesterday because we talked about that or at least a
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: couple days ago. to what came out a little bit
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: later in the day yesterday about former professional athletes in
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: football and in men's and women's basketball and the ability
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: to play on the college level. And we'll break it

  Speaker 2: It's very true. I wore my poncho today.

  Speaker 8: What?
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Just saying.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: That's pretty cool.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: I got a closet full of them. I do as well.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: They have LSU license apparel, by the way.
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: A lot of people have reached out to me and said,
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: you have been haunting my social media feed.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Look at you. You're everywhere. There's you. There's you.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: Flynn's so hot right now.
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: So hot.
• 31:38
  Speaker 7: I see him more on my Instagram than I do
• 31:41
  Speaker 7: in real life.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: And I see him every day.
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: Thanks for radio.
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: That's very factual.
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: Sex sells, people.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: The natty back guarantee as well. So if LSU wins
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: it all, that poncho's cool.
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that is cool.
• 31:56
  Speaker 5: So they told us about that at the fishing trip.
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: They did a natty back deal.
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: Well, they told us about it last year, too.
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: If you buy your shirt, the team apparel, and your
• 32:09
  Speaker 5: team wins the natty.
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: Get your money back.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: How about that?
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: How about that?
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: Now, they didn't have an Indiana shirt last year, so.
• 32:20
  Speaker 6: Do they have one this year?
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: No, I'm saying they didn't have to give any money back.
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: Any shirts back, right?
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: They just added a good handful of teams, too.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Their shirts are awesome.
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: They are. They are, like, literally the best. Not just because, like,
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: now they're a partner with the show. Y'all have heard
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: us talk about Poncho for a very, very long time. PonchoOutdoors.com
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: slash OffTheBench. Hey, Tay-Tay. Hey, Jake. The SEC, well, they
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: made quite the decision yesterday. Unanimous vote. I believe it
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: was 16 to nada. What was that vote?
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: So that's all of them, right?
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, every school.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: Man, athletes in any sport that participated any sort of
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: way in professional athletics, whether it's signing a contract, participating
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: in a training camp, anything of that nature, will not
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: be eligible to play in the SEC.
• 33:14
  Speaker 9: Hmm.
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: Who voted on this?
• 33:19
  Speaker 9: Everybody.
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: Not everybody. All 16. All 16 teams? Even LSU?
• 33:24
  Speaker 6: Wait, so the what? The athletic directors?
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: And presidents.
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: Chancellors, right?
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: So the LSU one voted.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: For it. So the thing, and all jokes aside, that
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: in this is going to be the most interesting part is, okay, well,
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: what does that mean? Does it mean it's going to
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: hold up? Does it mean that now, for what we've
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: talked about for the whole week, is it going to
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: mean anything? So, Tay-Tay, read for our listeners that aren't
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: watching on YouTube, read the actual release at the SEC.
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they said, you know, following the meetings with presidents, chancellors, ADs,
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: this is the following policy. An SEC institution is not
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: permitted to have an athlete on its roster who has
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: previously declared for the NFL, NBA, or WNBA draft and
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: did not appropriately withdraw to sign a contract with an
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: NFL or other professional football league, NBA, G league, WNBA,
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: or any sort of affiliated league. I've been listed on
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: an NFL or other professional football league, NBA, G league,
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: or WNBA roster at any point. And it says the
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: commissioner is authorized to enforce this expectation with penalties against
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: member institutions.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: So we saw the Big Ten yesterday do this while
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: we were doing the show, I believe, actually when that
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: was happening. And the SEC does it a little bit
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: later in the day. So this is pretty, for something
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: that didn't feel very black and white, from the SEC perspective,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: this feels very black and white.
• 35:02
  Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: So now it's going to be the question, what happens next?
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Because remember, Brendan Sorsby and Texas Tech, when we were
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: talking about that, well, the Big 12 got a little pressure.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: And the Big 12 came together and said, okay, well,
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: this isn't going to happen. And it didn't. Now Brendan
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: Sorsby is working out, not playing football this year, trying
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: to get ready for next year's draft. Now I'm not
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: saying this is the same situation. Brendan Sorsby was betting
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: on his own team, and we all know that's why
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: he wasn't. So I'm not. He could have played. He
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: had another year, but different situation. But it's still the same,
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: and the conference came together and said, actually, this isn't
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: going to happen.
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: And then it went away.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: It's certainly ever-evolving, changing probably by the hour behind the
• 35:47
  Speaker 5: scenes on the moves that everybody's making.
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: Yesterday on the show, the SEC had made a statement
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: at that.
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: Time, but it was very just like wagging its finger
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: type of deal. Then the Big Ten came out with
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: a statement. The other powerful conferences made similar statements. And
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: now the SEC kind of had to follow suit, basically,
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: with the other conferences.
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: Pretty overwhelming vote as well. So I.
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: Guess it all is going to come down to enforceability
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: and what they decide to do with this information. It's
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: one thing to say something. But you also got to
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: be about that action a little bit if you're going
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: to mean it. And so we'll see if they are
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: about that action. And what does that mean for the
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: new guys coming to LSU? What does it mean for, like,
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: going forward? Are we just going to kind of, like,
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: say this and then, like, let this year slide? Because
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: it's kind of this– we think this one year, at
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: least what Lane and them have said, is, like, this
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: is the anomaly year. Like, going forward, is it going– like,
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: we're just making this statement to– You know, we're building
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: this foundation going forward. Like, don't think this is going
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: any further than this year.
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: And this year gets a pass. We'll see. We'll see
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: how they decide to enforce it.
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: So, I mean, I'm– and I'm sure there's people that
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: know a lot more than I do, certainly, on this.
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: But I'm watching in real time and reacting in real time.
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: And I'm glad they made some sort of statement. I'm
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: glad they needed to. They needed– I hate when the
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: Big Ten kind of beats you to the punch on
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: something like that. but I know it's a little bit
• 37:25
  Speaker 5: sensitive right now with the SEC because of the moves
• 37:27
  Speaker 5: that LSU is making.
• 37:28
  Speaker 4: So SEC versus LSU? I don't know. Is that what it's, like,
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: pinned up to be?
• 37:34
  Speaker 6: Feels like it. I mean, the lawyers are going to–
• 37:37
  Speaker 6: they're already sane.
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 37:38
  Speaker 6: Like, Daquan Wright's lawyers are– What's that?
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: What's that?
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: Yeah, they're the Birdman hand rub. They're doing that right now.
• 37:46
  Speaker 6: They're licking their chops.
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: Oh, we got to fight the SEC now? Perfect.
• 37:50
  Speaker 7: His reps are figuring out next steps in real time.
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: It'll be interesting to see the loopholes because one of
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: us idiots up here yesterday, it was me, hand up, said, oh, man,
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: the Big Ten, they covered all their bases. They got this.
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: No.
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: A couple hours later, they were like, hey, Trent Hendricks,
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: you can play. You only participated in minicamp, not training camp.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: You didn't sign an NFL contract. So Trent Hendricks, as
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: of now, is going to play for UCLA.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: Well, I do guess so. If you do go to minicamp,
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: because minicamp's not a spot.
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: Well, he never signed a contract.
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: And you don't sign a contract for minicamp. You sign
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: a waiver if you get injured.
• 38:25
  Speaker 6: Diego Pavia can come back. You can try to sue him.
• 38:30
  Speaker 6: He got cut from minicamp.
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: He did have a contract.
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: But I wonder if he.
• 38:33
  Speaker 6: Had a contract.
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: He did, because it was like three years. I mean,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: so when I went to minicamp with the Saints.
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: You don't sign a contract. You just sign a, hey,
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: if I get hurt, you owe me something type situation.
• 38:47
  Speaker 5: You don't sign a contract to go to minicamp?
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: No, not if you're just an invitee. I can't sign
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: you and you need to go to minicamp, but for me,
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: I was just invited to go to minicamp.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: Jay, isn't that just a tryout to go to training camp?
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then they offered me a contract to go
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: to training camp, and that's when I decided to retire.
• 39:07
  Speaker 6: Honestly, while it's good.
• 39:11
  Speaker 7: To have some depth on the roster or whatever, whether
• 39:15
  Speaker 7: Daquan Wright and Zavian Harris get to play or not,
• 39:18
  Speaker 7: I feel like it doesn't really matter to LSU.
• 39:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
• 39:24
  Speaker 7: We're not going to suffer if Daquan Wright can't come
• 39:28
  Speaker 7: play for LSU.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: And they're good players.
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: I'm not saying they're bad.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying like, I'm with you.
• 39:33
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: I'm with you.
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: I'm to the point now. Like, I don't really, I
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: don't care if they're on their team or they're, they're not.
• 39:38
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: Go beat Clemson.
• 39:40
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: Go beat.
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: You've practiced for a whole off season. You've had all
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: your summer workouts. You had spring ball with, with your
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: current roster.
• 39:48
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: I get it.
• 39:49
  Speaker 5: Everything's in flux right now in college athletics. I don't
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: care if these people play for LSU or they don't.
• 39:55
  Speaker 5: I care about the longevity and keeping a little bit
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: of the sanctity of college athletics and college sports, but
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: I don't really care. Just go beat Clemson. You're not
• 40:09
  Speaker 5: going to be worse because these guys aren't on the team,
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: and you might be a little bit better if they
• 40:13
  Speaker 5: are on the team. I just don't care if they're
• 40:15
  Speaker 5: on the team. I'm going to cheer for LSU. I'm
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: going to scream and curse at the television. I'm going
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: to tell my kids to earmuff. You know what I mean?
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: It's just going to be one.
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: Of those things. I don't care. I just go beat Clemson.
• 40:26
  Speaker 6: Yes, let's just get to it already.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: It was very good to see yesterday's scout team in
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: Clemson numbers. You know what I mean?
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: Because I was like, oh, man, we're almost to football.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: We're almost to we get to talk about games and
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: X's and O's and did they execute or did they not.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: What's the matchups? Who do we like? Get a little
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: pontoon parlay out there. Like, we're getting close to that time.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: And the one thing that I don't want this to be,
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: because I'm with you. At this point, like, who cares?
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: Just tell me who's on the team. Give me a
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: depth chart. If there's some last names that are hard
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: to say on the radio, let me know that, too.
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: Well, they are. They're going to be.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: There's probably going to be some. Not as bad as
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: UCLA a couple years ago. But there's going to be some.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: And we'll talk about it. And then we'll break it down. Like,
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: just get me to that point. Just, like, let's get
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: to that.
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: Let me watch film.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: I don't want this to be. a distraction that it
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: seems like inevitably it's going to be, that takes away
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: from the actual work that they've put in to be
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: good on the football field again. Now we've talked about
• 41:30
