0:41
Speaker 1: course I want to give a big shout out to
0:44
Speaker 1: downtown Ronnie Brown. Am I the only one that calls
0:47
Speaker 1: Ronnie Brown downtown?
0:49
Speaker 3: I think so? But if you want me to, I'll
0:51
Speaker 3: start doing it. I'm sure it.

0:57
Speaker 1: he's a good fan, good fan for you guys, and
1:00
Speaker 1: we I know you guys appreciate his support, don't you.
1:02

Speaker 3: gonna he's he's the epitome of a servant leader for sure.
1:12
Speaker 1: I got you.
1:13
Speaker 3: We all need those, don't we absolutely? Absolutely. It's hard
1:17
Speaker 3: to find unselfish people in this world field, but H'rernie
1:22
Speaker 3: Brown is definitely one of the most unselfish people that
1:26
Speaker 3: I've ever met, to be quite honest.
1:28
Speaker 1: Greg, Greg, glad to hear I heard nothing but great
1:30
Speaker 1: things about Ronnie. And again, it's good to have somebody
1:34
Speaker 1: like that, uh, to support you, not just the program,
1:37
Speaker 1: the football, but to support you personally as well. And
1:40
Speaker 1: it sounds like he does that on all levels, yes, sir, Yeah, well, coach, Uh,
1:47
Speaker 1: let's talk a little football here. You guys kicked off
1:49
Speaker 1: the season, of course as one of the teams in
1:51
Speaker 1: the Quirky Killed Dave Hunter Classic, and like last year,
1:56
Speaker 1: it was a good night for you guys. Always good
1:59
Speaker 1: to get onto a one and oh star, really good
2:01
Speaker 1: to get it done when you're doing it in a
2:04
Speaker 1: big showcase event in front of a television audience like
2:07
Speaker 1: you guys had. And you got off to a good start,
2:10
Speaker 1: a fast start, twenty one to nothing, and uh, you know,
2:13
Speaker 1: I had to hold off a rally from West ver Side,
2:17
Speaker 1: but you guys got it done. Coach. Congratulations on the wind.
2:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you.
2:21
Speaker 3: It was definitely a long day for us, you know,
2:26
Speaker 3: making the travel and uh, you know, it can't can't
2:30
Speaker 3: happen without any a little bit of adversity. Had a
2:32
Speaker 3: bus breakdown, had to switch some kids off a broken
2:35
Speaker 3: bus and really got another bus, and it was a
2:38
Speaker 3: little shaky with the ac and the heat, you know,
2:41
Speaker 3: so we we went through it. We finally made our
2:44
Speaker 3: way to the stadium and uh, we're able to kind
2:48
Speaker 3: of relax as we waited for park few and coffee
2:52
Speaker 3: to finish up. And it's pretty cool. We were in
2:55
Speaker 3: the Braves Old clubhouse area and locker room is now
2:58
Speaker 3: Georgia States YEP in their baseball program, So it was.
3:03
Speaker 3: It was a pretty cool deal, good cool venue to
3:05
Speaker 3: play at and obviously always good to come out with
3:08
Speaker 3: a win.
3:09
Speaker 1: Absolutely, As you guys know, I predict the scores on
3:14
Speaker 1: six games. We call it pheels pick six and all
3:20
Speaker 1: most got it right on the money. Coach I was
3:23
Speaker 1: one point off. The final score was thirty eight fourteen, right, yes, sir,
3:29
Speaker 1: I think I predicted thirty seven fifteen.
3:33
Speaker 2: That's pretty good. That's pretty good.
3:35
Speaker 1: I don't know what you know. That's like the second
3:37
Speaker 1: year in a row. Last year I got one of
3:38
Speaker 1: y'alls games, like right on the money, so I can
3:41
Speaker 1: read you.
3:42
Speaker 2: Man.
3:42
Speaker 1: You know, we talked so much. I know how you work,
3:45
Speaker 1: I know how you think. You know, I'm just kidding.
3:48
Speaker 1: It's just pure luck.
3:51
Speaker 3: Well, it was definitely like you mentioned, it was we
3:55
Speaker 3: jumped out on top and twenty one and nothing.
3:59
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna be honest with you.
4:00
Speaker 3: Something we addressed it this morning's practice is you know,
4:04
Speaker 3: learning how to finish a team when you you know, we.
4:07
Speaker 2: Can't get complacent.
4:08
Speaker 3: I felt like at halftime, you know, was twenty one seven,
4:11
Speaker 3: then we let them get it to twenty one fourteen.
4:14
Speaker 3: And you know, but credit to West pscythe I mean,
4:17
Speaker 3: they play hard and well coached and where they're supposed
4:22
Speaker 3: to be. And I think coach Nichols does a great job.
4:25
Speaker 3: He's a good guy and got a good offensive mind
4:29
Speaker 3: and and uh and they rallied for sure, and so
4:33
Speaker 3: you know, even through wins, you can learn things, and
4:36
Speaker 3: we certainly learned a lot.
4:37
Speaker 2: We got some things we need to clean up.
4:39
Speaker 3: But uh, you know, at the end of the day,
4:42
Speaker 3: it's like I told someone that, you know, after the game,
4:46
Speaker 3: you know, it can't take winning for granted. It's hard
4:49
Speaker 3: to win in this state. Ye and uh, we're never
4:52
Speaker 3: going to take it for granted here at Hoko No.
4:56
Speaker 1: And you've done a great job. Go to turning that program,
5:00
Speaker 1: you know, from where it was to where it is,
5:02
Speaker 1: which is expecting to win and again playing in these
5:06
Speaker 1: big games. West Ver South was a really good program
5:09
Speaker 1: last year. I think they were either a core or
5:11
Speaker 1: semi finalists last year if I'm not mistaken. So, uh,
5:14
Speaker 1: you know this was a tough, tough bunch that you
5:16
Speaker 1: had to deal with and they did show it. Now,
5:19
Speaker 1: you guys got off the let's talk about the twenty
5:22
Speaker 1: one nothing start. Guys got off to a fast start.
5:26
Speaker 1: Is that something? Obviously you want to score every you know,
5:28
Speaker 1: every play is designed to go for a touchdown. But
5:33
Speaker 1: was it kind of part of the game plan to
5:36
Speaker 1: come out, hit them hard and to jump on them early.
5:39
Speaker 3: Well, you know, I talked to our captains, we want
5:41
Speaker 3: we wanted the ball if we won the toss, we
5:44
Speaker 3: wanted But they ended up winning the toss and de third,
5:48
Speaker 3: so we still got it. And uh, you know, they
5:51
Speaker 3: had a really good kicker, so all night we had
5:54
Speaker 3: to go eighty. I think he might have kicked every
5:56
Speaker 3: one of them to the end zone. So he was
5:59
Speaker 3: a strong He was an asset to their team. But
6:02
Speaker 3: first play of the game, you know, Austin Stenson goes
6:04
Speaker 3: eighty yards for a touchdown. So ye, yeah, I would
6:08
Speaker 3: say that's about as fast as you could start. But
6:11
Speaker 3: you know, our kids were hungry. You know we'd played
6:15
Speaker 3: call Quit in a scrimmage two weeks ago. Yep, they
6:18
Speaker 3: were ready to get on the field. They were chomping
6:20
Speaker 3: at the bit. We could tell they were tired of
6:23
Speaker 3: playing each other in practice.
6:25
Speaker 2: It was just it kind of came to that point.
6:28
Speaker 3: And then you know, I guess I wouldn't predict the
6:31
Speaker 3: score on the first play at scrimmage, but when you
6:34
Speaker 3: got Austin Stenson, anything's possible.
6:37
Speaker 1: Indeed, it is Austin Stenson one of our Week one
6:42
Speaker 1: ITG Next Top ten Performers for his performance, which he
6:46
Speaker 1: would go on to score two more touchdowns rush for
6:50
Speaker 1: over three hundred yards on the night. He again, Austin
6:53
Speaker 1: says in one of our top ITG Next Top ten
6:56
Speaker 1: performers for Week one, So congratulations to him. He obviously
6:59
Speaker 1: was a big part of the game plan, but you
7:01
Speaker 1: needed really everybody to to to jump in here and
7:04
Speaker 1: get it done because they cut the lead. I think
7:07
Speaker 1: it was twenty one to seven, go into the locker room, right.
7:11
Speaker 3: Right, twenty one seven. Then at one point, like I
7:13
Speaker 3: mentioned it was, it was twenty one fourteen. You know,
7:17
Speaker 3: we uh kind of self imploded a little bit. We
7:21
Speaker 3: had a we had a couple of a nice drive
7:23
Speaker 3: going and uh hit a screen pass and and took
7:27
Speaker 3: it into their you know, the red zone and fumbled
7:29
Speaker 3: him and uh, you know, so there are definitely some
7:33
Speaker 3: some opportunities that we some scoring opportunities that we didn't
7:39
Speaker 3: we didn't take advantage of.
7:41
Speaker 2: I do want to mention our kicker played lights out.
7:44
Speaker 1: Har just about to talk about him.
7:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was great. You know, he made a forty
7:50
Speaker 3: yard field goal kicked. He kicked I think all but
7:53
Speaker 3: one kick of his kickoffs in the end zone. And
7:55
Speaker 3: then you know, uh we punted twice and he I
8:01
Speaker 3: think he averaged fifty seven a kick, so we flipped
8:03
Speaker 3: the field punting the ball. So he he was as
8:07
Speaker 3: advertised and just as good as we expected him to be.
8:11
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I was gonna mention it. You know, I think
8:13
Speaker 1: his field goal comes in the third quarter, early in
8:16
Speaker 1: that third as you mentioned a forty yarder, and I
8:21
Speaker 1: tell you I'm really on this kickers kick. No pun intended,
8:25
Speaker 1: but I'm just a big believer in kickers and how
8:29
Speaker 1: much difference they make, how much they can change a game.
8:32
Speaker 1: You know, when a kicker kicks the field goal, the
8:34
Speaker 1: whole sideline explodes, especially if it's from you know, forty
8:37
Speaker 1: yards out, and you know, so any to me. You know,
8:41
Speaker 1: special teams overall are big time momentum change in plays.
8:47
Speaker 1: And I think even with you guys having the league coach,
8:50
Speaker 1: that was still a huge moment in the game.
8:53
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
8:54
Speaker 3: I mean that that that put it, you know, kind
8:57
Speaker 3: of out of reach for him when we finally hit,
8:59
Speaker 3: when we hit at that field goal, it was actually
9:02
Speaker 3: the beginning of the fourth, end of the third, okay.
9:05
Speaker 2: And he yeah, I mean that kind of made it.
9:08
Speaker 3: I believe at that time it would have been I
9:10
Speaker 3: guess a three score game, you know, to where it
9:14
Speaker 3: kind of put it a little bit out of reach.
9:16
Speaker 3: But again, we just we we started strong and we
9:20
Speaker 3: ended strong. Somewhere in the middle there we lost our momentum,
9:23
Speaker 3: we lost our juice and uh, you know, you can
9:26
Speaker 3: say it's a long day and this and that and whatever.
9:29
Speaker 3: But shoot, man, it was the first game of the year.
9:31
Speaker 3: They should have been fired up about playing and and
9:34
Speaker 3: they were. But I just think we kind of let
9:36
Speaker 3: off the gas a little bit. So again, it's a
9:39
Speaker 3: very it's a teachable moment for us as a program.
9:42
Speaker 3: But but yeah, I was really proud of the way
9:46
Speaker 3: our guys played, really really, like you mentioned, really proud
9:50
Speaker 3: of our special teams. I mean, they were extremely solid.
9:53
Speaker 3: You know, Coach Will Connor is our coordinator for our
9:57
Speaker 3: special teams, and he does a heck of a job,
10:00
Speaker 3: you know, preparing those guys. And it's not something that
10:03
Speaker 3: we look at as the third part of the game,
10:06
Speaker 3: you know, as far you know, we don't push it
10:08
Speaker 3: to aside. Like we probably practice special teams as equal
10:12
Speaker 3: as mountain as we do offense and defense and meetings
10:15
Speaker 3: as well. And so it's a definitely an emphasis for
10:19
Speaker 3: us and something we take a lot of pride in.
10:21
Speaker 1: Absolutely. Talking to Jeremy Edwards, check coach to the Hoko
10:24
Speaker 1: Bears against our show brought to you by State Farm
10:28
Speaker 1: Agent Ryan Lyons. Protected by Ryan dot Com is his website.
10:33
Speaker 1: I encourage you guys to go there and check out
10:35
Speaker 1: the insurance that he offers. It's all kinds of insurance
10:38
Speaker 1: you can get for your home, your car, help life.
10:43
Speaker 1: So check them out. Protected by Ryan dot Com. Okay,
10:47
Speaker 1: Austin Stinson puts a nightcab. I think he had eleven
10:50
Speaker 1: yard touchdown late late in the game. That really sealed
10:53
Speaker 1: the deal for you guys. And so so you guys
10:56
Speaker 1: get an important win. But time to go to the
10:59
Speaker 1: next game, which is gonna come after an open week,
11:03
Speaker 1: is that right?
11:04
Speaker 2: Yeah?
11:05
Speaker 3: I mean we've we've got to buy early in the season.
11:08
Speaker 3: Then we'll play, we'll finish off our non region schedule,
11:11
Speaker 3: and then we'll get another by before we start the region.
11:15
Speaker 3: So uh, I probably would have liked to have another
11:19
Speaker 3: by somewhere in the region schedule, but uh, you know,
11:23
Speaker 3: if you draw straws, and that's what you get. So
11:26
Speaker 3: and you gotta you gotta try to formulate your schedule
11:28
Speaker 3: and that's never easy any either. So but we'll we'll
11:32
Speaker 3: take a week off. We're relatively healthy, you know, coming
11:35
Speaker 3: out of that game, which is another we had some
11:37
Speaker 3: cramping going on in the game, which we want to
11:41
Speaker 3: try to correct. But uh, but yeah, we'll take this
11:44
Speaker 3: by a week and and we'll get ready. Uh. You
11:47
Speaker 3: know for Jones County, we'll have two weeks to prepare
11:49
Speaker 3: for them, so that that's always a plus. And you
11:54
Speaker 3: know we'll get a chance to kind of heal up
11:56
Speaker 3: any of our bumps and bruises.
11:58
Speaker 2: But we should be ready to roll in in two weeks.
12:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, like you said, you know, it is the schedule.
12:06
Speaker 1: You draw the strawled, you got to play it. You
12:08
Speaker 1: got to go with it. How do you like the
12:10
Speaker 1: having this buy, you know, right after opening game, especially
12:14
Speaker 1: a win. You know, I don't know. In my mind,
12:17
Speaker 1: you want to keep them going and go on, go
12:19
Speaker 1: ahead and go right back out there and play again.
12:21
Speaker 1: But I don't know, talk to that if you don't mind.
12:24
Speaker 3: Well, we hit the practice field this morning five point
12:27
Speaker 3: thirty in the morning. You know, we're still trying to
12:29
Speaker 3: beat the heat, and our kids have done a great
12:32
Speaker 3: job with that. I think they like having their afternoons free,
12:36
Speaker 3: to be honest, I know, as coaches, it gives us
12:38
Speaker 3: an opportunity to go out and you know, see our
12:41
Speaker 3: our kids playing their gay extracurriculars and things like that.
12:45
Speaker 2: So that's nice. But you know, I was.
12:47
Speaker 3: Really happy with the way that we attack practice this morning.
12:50
Speaker 3: You know, when you don't have a game Friday, you
12:53
Speaker 3: wonder what that's going to look like. But they really
12:55
Speaker 3: did a nice job of showing up and putting it,
12:58
Speaker 3: putting the good days work an But you know, uh,
13:03
Speaker 3: for us, really it's uh, we want to try to
13:06
Speaker 3: keep the momentum going through practice.
13:07
Speaker 2: You know, that's all you can do. We don't you know,
13:10
Speaker 2: We're gonna continue to do what we do.
13:12
Speaker 3: And uh, you know, I don't know, I don't know
13:16
Speaker 3: what else to say about it. I mean, it is,
13:18
Speaker 3: it just is what it is. I mean again, it
13:21
Speaker 3: gives you a chance to I will say this. Playing
13:25
Speaker 3: on at the Corky cal you know, with the travel,
13:28
Speaker 3: we didn't get home until you know, two three am,
13:31
Speaker 3: and and so it was.
13:32
Speaker 2: A long, long night.
13:34
Speaker 3: So I think this comes out a good time if
13:36
Speaker 3: you're gonna play in one of these kind of games
13:38
Speaker 3: where you're playing a you know, ended up being about
13:41
Speaker 3: a nine o'clock start, and you know, you know, and.
13:44
Speaker 2: In the past we've played these games.
13:47
Speaker 3: Uh, you know, on a Saturday, we played the Saturday
13:50
Speaker 3: game and the Bens and then turned around and played
13:52
Speaker 3: Effingham County and and man, that was that was tough.
13:57
Speaker 3: So I in a sense, you'd like, like you may engine,
14:00
Speaker 3: you'd like to keep the momentum going. But then also
14:03
Speaker 3: when you play in these type of kickoff classics and
14:06
Speaker 3: you know you're stacked behind other games and your start
14:08
Speaker 3: times always pushed back, it's nice to get a chance
14:11
Speaker 3: to kind of catch your breath.
14:13
Speaker 1: Absolutely, So you talked about Jones County being the next opponent.
14:17
Speaker 1: What can you tell us about the Reumds.
14:20
Speaker 3: Well, you know, all we've seen is, you know, their
14:22
Speaker 3: their fall scrimmage. They played Jasper Monticello. They obviously played
14:28
Speaker 3: uh Valdosta this last week at home, and uh they'll
14:33
Speaker 3: play Peach County, so they they certainly didn't pick an
14:37
Speaker 3: easy road, non region to start their season. Valdosta is fast,
14:44
Speaker 3: very well coach with coach Felton. And then obviously Peach
14:47
Speaker 3: County is on a roll right now, you know. Just
14:51
Speaker 3: they just beat Perry pretty good, so, uh, they got
14:56
Speaker 3: some momentum.
14:57
Speaker 2: So you know, it'll give us the thing they way up.
15:00
Speaker 3: At Jones County, so it'll it'll give us a chance
15:02
Speaker 3: to uh, you know, see see them live because we're off.
15:07
Speaker 3: So I'm sure we'll send some coaches to go check
15:09
Speaker 3: it out and obviously we'll get the film as well,
15:12
Speaker 3: so you know, I know coach Montgomery is a great,
15:16
Speaker 3: great football coach and he's yeah, he's going to have
15:18
Speaker 3: them prepared and uh, it'll be interesting, interesting to see
15:22
Speaker 3: how they bounce back this week after after the loss
15:27
Speaker 3: last week to Vout Austin.
15:28
Speaker 1: Wrapping it up with the Hoko head football coach Cheery
15:32
Speaker 1: Edwards again, want to thank everybody for checking our weekly
15:35
Speaker 1: conversation out and we do indeed talk to coach every
15:38
Speaker 1: single week all year long, so be sure to catch
15:42
Speaker 1: our show, uh every week. All right. So you mentioned
15:49
Speaker 1: you know about the health of the team. I guess
15:51
Speaker 1: that's one of the advantages of having this bye week.
15:54
Speaker 1: Now you'll come out have a chance if you do
15:57
Speaker 1: have some uh you know, some guys hurrying. Hopefully you didn't.
16:01
Speaker 1: But how's the health of your team coming out of
16:03
Speaker 1: that game, because it was a pretty physical game.
16:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we we got a couple of guys
16:08
Speaker 3: that you know, have some bumps and bruises, you know,
16:11
Speaker 3: yeah like that, but we didn't sustain any any true
16:14
Speaker 3: injuries that's gonna keep anybody out from playing time. So
16:18
Speaker 3: you know, that's always a blessing. You come out of
16:20
Speaker 3: a game like that, Like you said, it was physical
16:23
Speaker 3: and and again I want to credit West pscythe because
16:27
Speaker 3: they played extremely hard all the way to the end.
16:29
Speaker 2: Yes, you know, a lot of class with that program, and.
16:33
Speaker 3: Like it's just us the way football should be played.
16:36
Speaker 3: And but yeah, I mean, anytime you come out of
16:39
Speaker 3: a game early in the season, keep guys healthy, that's
16:44
Speaker 3: a plus. And and so hopefully we can ride that
16:48
Speaker 3: wave throughout the rest of the season.
16:51
Speaker 1: All right, So we talked about of course Austin, we
16:55
Speaker 1: talked about your kicker, Harrison. Who else would you like
17:00
Speaker 1: to point out because I know you had several guys
17:02
Speaker 1: that had a big night uh that in that in
17:05
Speaker 1: that win.
17:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean I want to I want to
17:08
Speaker 3: credit our defense. I mean we besides really two plays
17:14
Speaker 3: which were there the scores that they had, you know,
17:17
Speaker 3: they played pretty flawless. You know, they pressured the quarterback,
17:20
Speaker 3: they knocked around, Uh, Jacory and McCoy had had I
17:25
Speaker 3: think three interceptions, probably should have had four, you know,
17:30
Speaker 3: and two of them should have been returned, uh for
17:33
Speaker 3: touchdowns that we ended up getting some calls that you know,
17:36
Speaker 3: there's no replay if you did possibly we get those,
17:39
Speaker 3: but he played.
17:41
Speaker 2: Nights out in the secondary.
17:43
Speaker 3: Like I mentioned, we just really had one one bust
17:46
Speaker 3: on a third and long that I know that our
17:49
Speaker 3: defensive staff wish is that we had back. But other
17:52
Speaker 3: than that, they were really swarming to the ball. They
17:54
Speaker 3: looked fast, and like I said, they pressured the They
17:58
Speaker 3: pressured that quarterback and you could tell he didn't He
18:01
Speaker 3: didn't want to keep getting hit like he was getting hit.
18:04
Speaker 3: So that that's always good, you know. Offensively, JT. Thomas
18:08
Speaker 3: had a good night catching the ball. You know, I
18:10
Speaker 3: think he had eight receptions for one hundred and fourteen
18:14
Speaker 3: yards and a touchdown. And Ryan Maxwell played solid. You know,
18:18
Speaker 3: his completion percentage was up, and you know, we're pushing
18:22
Speaker 3: the ball downfield, so a time get sixty five percent
18:25
Speaker 3: plus when you're pushing it downfield, I think that's good.
18:28
Speaker 3: And you know, obviously some things we need to correct.
18:32
Speaker 3: But overall, I was really pleased for a first game
18:35
Speaker 3: of the year.
18:36
Speaker 1: Fantastic. Uh Yes, a quarterback on the other side said
18:41
Speaker 1: no more, no Moss.
18:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, he got banged around a little bit. I will
18:45
Speaker 3: say this about the kid, he is tough. He kept
18:48
Speaker 3: getting back up and but we were getting after him
18:51
Speaker 3: pretty good. Zion Paul had a couple of sacks and
18:54
Speaker 3: yeap he was playing. So you know, again, I'm so
18:58
Speaker 3: proud and I mentioned it to our team afterwards, like
19:00
Speaker 3: I just really felt like the defense, you know, played
19:04
Speaker 3: really really well, and uh, you know, that's something we
19:08
Speaker 3: want to continue, uh as we progress through the season
19:11
Speaker 3: and game that confidence, you know, weekend and week out.
19:16
Speaker 1: So the game, this game against Jones County, they'll be
19:19
Speaker 1: a home.
19:20
Speaker 3: Yes, it's at home, so it'll be our you know,
