18:31
Speaker 6: obviously the draft was a huge success on our.
18:35
Speaker 7: End you, know to have.
18:37
Speaker 6: Twelve guys drafted coming off of eleven last, year pretty.
18:42
Speaker 6: Cool to have twenty three players in the last two,
18:44
Speaker 6: drafts most of any team in the. Country that's now
18:47
Speaker 6: six first round picks in three, years which is a
18:51
Speaker 6: really cool. Deal and to, think you, know when we got,
18:54
Speaker 6: HERE i think there was thirty two ACTIVE nfl players
18:56
Speaker 6: from ut in THE, nfl and we've had twenty eight
18:59
Speaker 6: guys draft now in the last three.
19:01
Speaker 7: Drafts so we're.
19:02
Speaker 6: Excited we're, pumping proud of that that we're developing our
19:05
Speaker 6: players and getting them an opportunity to go do. That,
19:08
Speaker 6: obviously wrapped up Springball, saturday had a great.
19:12
Speaker 7: Day Fan Appreciation DAY i thought was a.
19:14
Speaker 6: Hit it was a lot of fun with our fans
19:16
Speaker 6: and taking pictures and signing autographs and the fire sale
19:20
Speaker 6: and all the things that went with. That and then
19:22
Speaker 6: Obviously i'd be remiss IF i didn't talk about What
19:25
Speaker 6: slash is doing with the baseball. Program that was an
19:27
Speaker 6: awesome series sweep that they had this. Weekend they continue
19:31
Speaker 6: to roll, on AND i think that that just speaks
19:34
Speaker 6: to Where Texas athletics is right now. TOO a ton
19:37
Speaker 6: of credit TO, cdc BUT i think of our twenty
19:39
Speaker 6: one sports right, now nine of them this year have
19:43
Speaker 6: been ranked number one in the, country which is which
19:46
Speaker 6: is pretty incredible when you look at it on that.
19:49
Speaker 7: Front so a lot of really cool things.
19:51
Speaker 6: Happening, obviously the month Of may for us is a
19:54
Speaker 6: unique month with all of our coaches hitting the, road recruiting,
19:57
Speaker 6: today me getting an opportunity to do things like, this
20:01
Speaker 6: the players wrapping up school and, finals and then having
20:04
Speaker 6: a little time.
20:05
Speaker 7: Off before we come back In.
20:06
Speaker 6: June so it's kind of that the, seasons right we
20:10
Speaker 6: kind of go with the, Season so we're we're in
20:12
Speaker 6: the transitional phase right.
20:13
Speaker 7: Now that was a false start by the, WAY i.
20:17
Speaker 8: Know.
20:20
Speaker 9: Coaches hit the, Road i'm, curious what does this time
20:22
Speaker 9: you look like or her to be because you guys have
20:25
Speaker 9: officials coming In. June it feels like maybe the clock
20:29
Speaker 9: on pretty and put it pushed up a little bit
20:31
Speaker 9: because of how are the guys coming, In so what
20:34
Speaker 9: does it look? Like you wouldn't look like your sat
20:37
Speaker 9: this time to get your pay, Age.
20:38
Speaker 6: Like, yeah you, KNOW i think from an assistant coaches
20:41
Speaker 6: perspective where it's adjusted some you, know and then it's
20:46
Speaker 6: a real balancing.
20:47
Speaker 2: Act you.
20:47
Speaker 6: Know a lot of what you used to do back
20:50
Speaker 6: in the day was you'd spring recruit to invite the
20:54
Speaker 6: seniors to get to, camp to get them to, camp
20:56
Speaker 6: and then get them to come to a game in
20:59
Speaker 6: the fall and get to take an official, visit you,
21:01
Speaker 6: know in the winter, time you, Know December. January that
21:04
Speaker 6: is all sped all the way up right when signing
21:06
Speaker 6: day is now in Early. December, now so many of
21:11
Speaker 6: the players have been on our campus last year to
21:14
Speaker 6: come to a.
21:14
Speaker 7: Game they've been.
21:15
Speaker 6: On our, campus you, know this spring right to come
21:18
Speaker 6: to practice to some. Degree and now the assistant coaches
21:23
Speaker 6: are going out in spring really to home visit the kids,
21:28
Speaker 6: now which is incredible to, Think, like as a head,
21:31
Speaker 6: COACH i don't do home visits, anymore which that used
21:33
Speaker 6: to be always felt as a head coach might have
21:35
Speaker 6: been the most important aspect of your job was was
21:38
Speaker 6: getting into the home of a of a, recruit especially
21:41
Speaker 6: one that was still in the decision making. Process now
21:43
Speaker 6: the assistant coaches are doing, that and now they're on
21:46
Speaker 6: the road spring recruiting for your twenty seven's to come to, camp,
21:51
Speaker 6: Right so the whole thing is kind of sped up that,
21:53
Speaker 6: way you. Know so my perspective has adjusted, some you, know,
21:58
Speaker 6: obviously and for the assistant coaches it's adjusted. Some and you, know,
22:03
Speaker 6: again being, ADAPTABLE i think is the key right, now
22:06
Speaker 6: and and and being really well organized and where our
22:09
Speaker 6: coaches are going and what we're trying to. Do and you,
22:13
Speaker 6: KNOW i can tell you our guys are our hammer
22:15
Speaker 6: in the state Of texas this.
22:17
Speaker 7: Week you, know we don't go out as early.
22:19
Speaker 6: As maybe some other schools because our, spring our spring
22:23
Speaker 6: ball goes a little. Later so we have to be
22:24
Speaker 6: really efficient here over the next month to make sure
22:27
Speaker 6: that we're getting the right stuff done.
22:30
Speaker 9: Well with the loss of that's not experienced as it
22:34
Speaker 9: happened in the past few. Years how does it kind
22:36
Speaker 9: of developmental process kind of what you've had with.
22:39
Speaker 6: Someone, Yeah, NOW i think that the, reason you, know
22:47
Speaker 6: the way we did winter and the way we did
22:50
Speaker 6: spring ball was really to get us to a point
22:53
Speaker 6: to where our summer could now resemble what the summers
22:57
Speaker 6: of the past.
22:57
Speaker 7: Were that's why we really.
22:59
Speaker 6: Wanted to take our time and teach really well in
23:02
Speaker 6: springball to get so many of these new faces kind
23:06
Speaker 6: of up to, speed.
23:08
Speaker 5: You.
23:08
Speaker 6: Know, historically AGAIN i hate to kind, of you, know
23:12
Speaker 6: turn back the clock all the, time but you, remember
23:16
Speaker 6: mostly the kids we signed didn't used to show up Until,
23:19
Speaker 6: june and so you were kind of had a split, team,
23:22
Speaker 6: Right you had all these vets and then you had
23:23
Speaker 6: these all these new, faces and you kind of had
23:25
Speaker 6: to balance that, act and we didn't have the ability
23:28
Speaker 6: to be on the field and do any skill development with.
23:31
Speaker 7: Them and so the idea that, yes we lost.
23:34
Speaker 6: Some veteran, players but of the twenty five high school
23:39
Speaker 6: kids we, signed twenty two of them are on campus.
23:41
Speaker 6: Now twenty one of them were in springball with, us
23:43
Speaker 6: And jonah was obviously doing baseball and then coming to
23:47
Speaker 6: a little bit of, football but not a ton so
23:50
Speaker 6: and then with the five transfers that came for spring
23:53
Speaker 6: we got those guys pretty far along.
23:55
Speaker 7: Now so now when summer rolls, around you.
23:58
Speaker 6: Know i've got a handful of high school, kids And
24:00
Speaker 6: i've got a handful of transfers that maybe don't know
24:04
Speaker 6: all the nuances of what we, do but really the
24:06
Speaker 6: bulk of our team now, does so we should be
24:09
Speaker 6: able to hit the, round hit the ground running pretty
24:11
Speaker 6: good In june And july and be pretty aggressive with.
24:15
Speaker 6: That and, ALSO i, think you, know what we're able
24:18
Speaker 6: to do this winter in spring is really start to
24:20
Speaker 6: push some guys to to a leadership.
24:23
Speaker 7: Role that maybe weren't quite there.
24:25
Speaker 6: Yet and now we feel very comfortable about where they're
24:28
Speaker 6: at in the program that that they can handle that
24:31
Speaker 6: this summer.
24:33
Speaker 4: Gus you, know for developing quarterbacks and deceivers and running,
24:36
Speaker 4: backs the defensive tackle position.
24:38
Speaker 2: Over the past couple of years With colomo.
24:41
Speaker 9: And kiadre And firing And padre and his passionate could
24:45
Speaker 9: you talk about medium these.
24:46
Speaker 2: Developed guys having in that position out for. You and
24:50
Speaker 2: then also when you're attack it so hard to.
24:52
Speaker 6: Transfer, YEAH i think a couple of things on, that you. Know,
24:55
Speaker 6: one you, Know i've been banging this, drum you, know
24:59
Speaker 6: since since we, arrived AND i think a lot of
25:02
Speaker 6: the times the offensive line got the attention of. This
25:06
Speaker 6: but you win games at the line of, Scrimmage you
25:09
Speaker 6: win championships at the line of. Scrimmage and and WHEN
25:12
Speaker 6: i always used to talk about big, humans you, know,
25:15
Speaker 6: again the offensive line got a lot of that attention
25:17
Speaker 6: because we felt like that was the immediate need to
25:20
Speaker 6: ramp up that. Recruiting but really on the defensive side
25:23
Speaker 6: of the, ball we were fortunate when we got here
25:26
Speaker 6: that that room had some really good players in.
25:28
Speaker 7: It you, know all.
25:29
Speaker 6: Six of those guys that that have gotten drafted in
25:33
Speaker 6: the last three years we. Inherited you, Know murph was
25:35
Speaker 6: the only guy that was in that one, class and
25:38
Speaker 6: Then Baron surrell obviously in this year's. Class they were
25:42
Speaker 6: they were in that class right WHEN i got here In.
25:44
Speaker 6: January they signed In. December the rest of those guys
25:46
Speaker 6: were on the, roster you, know and and so we
25:48
Speaker 6: inherited those, guys and you, KNOW i think we did
25:51
Speaker 6: a pretty good job of continuing their development to get
25:54
Speaker 6: them to that to that. Stage and so, we LIKE i,
25:57
Speaker 6: said we've been fortunate to have a very good defensive.
25:59
Speaker 6: FRONT i think that allowed us to grow in the.
26:03
Speaker 6: Secondary that allowed us to recruit some really high level
26:07
Speaker 6: athletic players on the edge and at the linebacker position
26:10
Speaker 6: to help with.
26:11
Speaker 7: That but like, anything you, know when.
26:15
Speaker 6: You look at us when it comes to the, portal
26:17
Speaker 6: like we're trying to fill needs and for a variety of,
26:21
Speaker 6: reasons we've had some real attrition at the defensive line.
26:25
Speaker 6: Spot LIKE i, said for a variety of, reasons certain
26:27
Speaker 6: players aren't here, anymore and you have to get your numbers.
26:31
Speaker 6: Right when you think about where my mind is, At
26:34
Speaker 6: i'm thinking about sixteen seventeen games, again and having the
26:38
Speaker 6: right amount of depth on the defensive front is critical
26:41
Speaker 6: for us to play the style of football that we
26:43
Speaker 6: want to. Play AND i thought we've done a really
26:46
Speaker 6: nice job of addressing needs on the defensive, front not
26:50
Speaker 6: only in the winter transfer, portal but obviously here in
26:54
Speaker 6: the spring to go along with some of our young players.
26:56
Speaker 7: As they continue to.
26:57
Speaker 6: DEVELOP i think it's going to be a nice combination
27:00
Speaker 6: of players that is going to allow the rest of
27:02
Speaker 6: that defense to play the style of defense that we
27:04
Speaker 6: want to. Play, hey but the portal just, closing what's
27:09
Speaker 6: what's the biggest surprise to be a positive ordinating and the?
27:13
Speaker 6: Results you, KNOW i don't, KNOW i, mean because it's you,
27:18
Speaker 6: Know i'd love to say it's not over. RIGHT i,
27:20
Speaker 6: mean there's still a lot of guys that are out,
27:22
Speaker 6: there you, know i'd say on our. End you, know
27:30
Speaker 6: when when you decide to go take a transfer, Portal
27:33
Speaker 6: punter and Kicker i'm not surprised that we lost a
27:37
Speaker 6: punter and a kicker in this process like, That that's
27:39
Speaker 6: not surprising to. Me when you have a you, know
27:43
Speaker 6: fourth year player offensive lineman decide that he wants to
27:45
Speaker 6: go in the portal with an opportunity to go start somewhere,
27:48
Speaker 6: ELSE i can understand. That i'm proud of the fact
27:52
Speaker 6: that really we didn't have any, surprises you.
27:55
Speaker 7: KNOW i think that's a good. Thing you know that
27:57
Speaker 7: that nobody came.
27:58
Speaker 6: In to, me, uh you, know two days before the
28:02
Speaker 6: last practice to say they were going in the. Portal
28:04
Speaker 6: and SO i think that we've, Developed LIKE i, said
28:07
Speaker 6: we've developed a really good culture around our place where
28:09
Speaker 6: guys feel like they're getting developed and that they're part
28:11
Speaker 6: of a program that is competing for, championships that if
28:15
Speaker 6: you can do things the right, way you're probably going
28:17
Speaker 6: to have an opportunity to fulfill your dreams and playing
28:20
Speaker 6: in THE. Nfl and they're getting a world class. Education
28:24
Speaker 6: and so there's a lot of positives that we have
28:26
Speaker 6: and the fact that our team recognizes THAT i think
28:29
Speaker 6: is a good. Thing you, Know LIKE i, SAID i
28:31
Speaker 6: don't know If i'd necessarily have any surprises coming out of.
28:35
Speaker 2: It longborn's head Coach Steve.

Speaker 1: Cool that's just another another team doing another, program doing
31:33
Speaker 1: very very well at Ut OKAY NBA kam we mentioned
31:38
Speaker 1: a little bit about this is the which is the
31:41
Speaker 1: bigger surprise to, you The knicks being up three to
31:44
Speaker 1: one on The pistons or The timberwolves being up three
31:46
Speaker 1: to one on The.
31:47
Speaker 4: LAKERS i would Say Lakers. TIMBERWOLVES i thought After game,
31:54
Speaker 4: TWO i thought the series would probably go, seven But
31:57
Speaker 4: minnesota might be able to wrap this up now in
32:01
Speaker 4: just five, games possibly. Six of, Course lakers Have game
32:05
Speaker 4: five at. Home but the play Of luca has been.
32:09
Speaker 4: Interesting his numbers look really, good but the eye, test especially,
32:15
Speaker 4: defensively is. JARRING i, mean watching the last four minutes
32:20
Speaker 4: of the game yesterday felt Like luca didn't really have an.
32:23
Speaker 1: Impact that's Where Nico harrison, said, back he, GOES i
32:26
Speaker 1: told you he's not playing defense yet thirty eight points.
32:31
Speaker 2: In minnesota would trap him.
32:33
Speaker 4: IN i, mean the last shot of the, game in
32:36
Speaker 4: Which lakers had a chance to to bliss if we tie,
32:40
Speaker 4: It minnesota Traps. Luca he just lets the, trip the
32:44
Speaker 4: double team, come let's the trap. Come so then he
32:46
Speaker 4: goes To. Lebron lebron is picked up By. Ant he
32:50
Speaker 4: goes to the. Corner It's Austin reeves and you know
32:53
Speaker 4: it's it's probably a corner three That reeves makes him.
32:56
Speaker 4: Practice but it wasn't the easiest. Shot but at the same,
32:59
Speaker 4: TIME i, mean that's why you Got luca for shots like.
33:02
Speaker 4: That AND i Thought deverwolves, DEFENSIVELY i had a fantastic
33:07
Speaker 4: game plan to really slow Down luca the second. Half,
33:10
Speaker 4: ALSO i MEAN, JJ i, MEAN i don't know if
33:14
Speaker 4: he has much of a choice, now but the starting
33:17
Speaker 4: five The lakers played every single second in the second,
33:20
Speaker 4: half and you could tell towards the very. END i,
33:22
Speaker 4: Mean lebron defensively was incredible last, night but, OFFENSIVELY i
33:27
Speaker 4: don't think he scored had a single field goal in
33:30
Speaker 4: the fourth, quarter you could kind of tell that he
33:33
Speaker 4: was putting all of his effort playing defense Because luca
33:37
Speaker 4: And Austin reeves sure. Weren't those dudes couldn't guard cordboard
33:41
Speaker 4: box at this, point and so that took Away lebron's game.
33:44
Speaker 4: Offensively so it's a very flawed. ROSTER i, think you,
33:48
Speaker 4: know when the trade first, happened the expectations for The
33:51
Speaker 4: lakers were probably all, right you, know they're probably not
33:53
Speaker 4: going to contend this, year but we'll see what happens going.
33:56
Speaker 4: Forward and then they went on a little bit of
33:58
Speaker 4: a run the second, half AND i think people got
33:59
Speaker 4: their hopes, up Including lakers fans and in the media,
34:02
Speaker 4: too and, Thought, okay This lakers team, OFFENSIVELY i don't
34:06
Speaker 4: know that one's being able to stop. Him there could
34:07
Speaker 4: be A Western conference final. Team but now the lack
34:10
Speaker 4: of depth is really really. Showing in credit to the T,
34:13
Speaker 4: WOLVES i, Mean Anthony edwards has been phenomenal this. Series
34:16
Speaker 4: what Nas reed has been doing, DEFENSIVELY i, mean he's
34:20
Speaker 4: been incredible this entire series as.
34:22
Speaker 2: Well and give a lot of Credit Julius.
34:24
Speaker 4: RANDALL i was very Anti Julius randall when that trade
34:29
Speaker 4: went down and thought that The wolves just got, worse
34:31
Speaker 4: The nicks got. Better But, Randall, man he's been. Physical
34:34
Speaker 4: he's been excellent in this entire. Series you, know he's
34:37
Speaker 4: been going right At lebron and anybody who defends, him
34:41
Speaker 4: and he's been huge For. Minnesota so a bit surprised
34:44
Speaker 4: That luca has not been playing as. Well BUT i
34:49
Speaker 4: mean it kind of goes back to his. Condition he
34:51
Speaker 4: just looks like he's not in peak basketball. Shape AND
34:54
Speaker 4: i think if you watched that Game astray in the
34:56
Speaker 4: final couple of, minutes The lakers just kind of ran
34:58
Speaker 4: out of gas.
34:59
Speaker 1: Offensively so, Well i'm playing all twenty four minutes of
35:02
Speaker 1: the second half of the.
35:02
Speaker 2: STARTERS i THINK i don't UNDERSTAND J. J.
35:06
Speaker 4: Reddicks so they've got nobody else to, play nobody else to,
35:08
Speaker 4: play and you, know with the playoff, game commercials are
35:10
Speaker 4: a little bit, longer SO i think there's some more
35:15
Speaker 4: more time in between.
35:16
Speaker 2: Timeouts BUT i, mean, hey they still look.
35:19
Speaker 4: Tired but, YEAH i mean The lakers, DEPTH i, don't you,
35:21
Speaker 4: KNOW i don't Think Gabe vincent is really going to
35:23
Speaker 4: change things out there for The. LAKERS i, mean you
35:26
Speaker 4: got to Have reeves And luca on the, Floor rory
35:28
Speaker 4: Hot chamara knocked down clutch shot after clutch shot, yesterday
35:32
Speaker 4: And Dory Finney smith too had had a big three.
35:34
Speaker 4: Pointer but it's a, flawed Flawed lakers. Roster so you,
35:40
Speaker 4: know now NOW i think The wolves can. Win but
35:42
Speaker 4: also the same, time it's just always hard to count
35:45
Speaker 4: Out lebron In, lucas so, hey there is a game. Seven,
35:49
Speaker 4: HONESTLY i would not be. Surprised but also The wolves
35:52
Speaker 4: wrapped this up in, six it would makes.
35:54
Speaker 5: Sense did you.
35:55
Speaker 1: See the deal On friday? Night We luca apparently had
35:57
Speaker 1: a stomach. Bug sure it was like, sick but he
36:00
Speaker 1: was going to try to push through, it push through.
36:02
Speaker 1: It one thing that was kind of FUN i say
36:05
Speaker 1: it's funny and that you know it's a fan Of.
36:07
Speaker 1: Luca but there's one, point like in the second quarters
36:10
Speaker 1: of the there was an Esp at. Highlight he's running
36:12
Speaker 1: down the floor and all a sudden you see him
36:14
Speaker 1: like like the hold his, stomach, like oh it doesn't feel,
36:18
Speaker 1: Good like who does? That even if you're just walking
36:21
Speaker 1: around the hot do you walk around that much going
36:23
Speaker 1: they either have a stomach, bugger you.
36:25
Speaker 2: Don't you don't kind of.
36:26
Speaker 1: Walk around holding your stomach. Do, yeah it was kind of,
36:29
Speaker 1: funny but it was on the, floor but it certainly
36:30
Speaker 1: wasn't funny for too much. Beer all, right all, Right
36:34
Speaker 1: so then you Got nick's, pistons and just like with The,
36:38
Speaker 1: lakers who you picked? Them when you picked The, Pistons
36:40
Speaker 1: and here's The knicks up three games to. One New
36:42
Speaker 1: york's played Fantastic. Detroit just you, know it kind of
36:46
Speaker 1: looks like the spotlight might be too big for. Them
36:48
Speaker 1: one thing's for, Sure Kate cunningham is a fantastic basketball.
36:51
Speaker 1: Player loved what he's, done AND i love What Anthony
36:54
Speaker 1: Towns cat has been great in this. Series detroit has
36:59
Speaker 1: kind of gone back and for worth with how they defended.
37:00
Speaker 1: Him they went a little bit bigger with With jalen
37:02
Speaker 1: during on, him and, Honestly kat seems the struggle with
37:06
Speaker 1: smaller players. On so you, Know i'm just interested to
37:08
Speaker 1: see If detroit ultimately just decides to go go with small.
37:12
Speaker 1: Ball but credit credit The knicks in this.
37:14
Speaker 4: Series you know you speaking of play in every single,
37:16
Speaker 4: minute you, know that's How Tom deeblow likes to run
37:18
Speaker 4: his team is make sure starters play every single second
37:21
Speaker 4: of the, game so we'll. SEE i think they'll be
37:24
Speaker 4: able to win this series Against. Detroit but you, Know i'm, Curious,
37:28
Speaker 4: craig because they win this series looking at the conference semi,
37:32
Speaker 4: finals now you Got. Boston can they hold up? Physically
37:36
Speaker 4: but you know it's gonna remember saying that last year
37:40
Speaker 4: incredible the second. Round but, uh and and how about
37:43
Speaker 4: the end called? Foul, hardaway who always liked when he
37:46
Speaker 4: played with The, Mavericks Tim Hardaway, junior he got fouled By.
37:48
Speaker 4: JOSH i mean he got. Hit there's no doubt in.
37:51
Speaker 1: It and in, fact, Uh David, guthrie the crew, chief
37:55
Speaker 1: said to the pool, reporter here was the. Quote during live,
37:58
Speaker 1: play it was Judged Josh hart made a legal defensive.
38:02
Speaker 1: Play there light be a lot of people won't how
38:03
Speaker 1: do you see that live play like? That but, anyway
38:06
Speaker 1: it's after postgame review we observe that heart makes body
38:10
Speaker 1: contact that is more than marginal To Hardaway junior and
38:13
Speaker 1: a foul should have been. Called, NOW i give the
38:17
Speaker 1: officials credit for owning it. Afterwards it was a. Mistake
38:21
Speaker 1: but that's almost kind of, like you, know The mavericks
38:26
Speaker 1: Honoring luca with a night after, all it did was
38:30
Speaker 1: make The detroit fans all the, angrier, Like, okay so
38:33
Speaker 1: you're you're admitting that you screwed.
38:35
Speaker 2: Up that didn't help us the fact that we've. Lost
38:37
Speaker 2: now we're down three games to.
38:38
Speaker 4: One it's it's such a tough play any anytime a
38:43
Speaker 4: player will pump fake and then get the guy in
38:46
Speaker 4: the air and then try and you, know lean into
38:48
Speaker 4: him from the three. Pointer although you, know didn't look
38:50
Speaker 4: Like hardaway leaned into him as. Much it's it's a
38:55
Speaker 4: tough play to. Call so it's a lose lose to
38:58
Speaker 4: the referee in that.
38:59
Speaker 2: Situation but you wonder if maybe they could change that
39:01
Speaker 2: and make that a booth.
39:02
Speaker 4: Review, well the thing is, is IF i know this,
39:06
Speaker 4: Correctly detroit was out of their challenges because Bicker staff
39:12
Speaker 4: used a challenge in the first quarter on an out
39:15
Speaker 4: of balance. Play so that kind of goes back to
39:18
Speaker 4: just very very very poor coaching from Bicker. Staff now
39:23
Speaker 4: you know they reviewed it because remember the review in
39:25
Speaker 4: The Lakers Tuper bowl came on what looked Like lebron
39:29
Speaker 4: was able to force a turnover and they reviewed it
39:32
Speaker 4: to make sure the ball was actually off of And,
39:34
Speaker 4: edwards and it turned Out lebron got risks first and
39:37
Speaker 4: it ended up BEING T wolf's possession or ended up
39:39
Speaker 4: being a shooting foul For Anthony edwards who knocked down
39:42
Speaker 4: the both of the free throws and The wolves go
39:44
Speaker 4: on the.
39:44
Speaker 2: Win kind of similar.
39:46
Speaker 4: There you, know that could have completely changed the, game
39:49
Speaker 4: and that's because you, KNOW T wolves had on had
39:52
Speaker 4: their coaching challenges, remaining and The pistons did not because
39:57
Speaker 4: of a silly first, quarter first quarter.
39:59
Speaker 1: Challeng all, right we'll talk some MORE nba playoff. Stuff
40:02
Speaker 1: coming up up, next we visit with sed For golden

Speaker 3: Craig he is Got those kids are regurgitating everything he.
46:29
Speaker 3: Says it's like like you record his quotes and then
46:33
Speaker 3: and Then Luke harrison.
46:34
Speaker 5: Comes out and says the same.
46:36
Speaker 3: Thing they just they're all on the same, page you know.
46:39
Speaker 3: What they're not in full strength and they're still.
46:41
Speaker 1: Winning, Yeah and you know and you're the perfect person
46:44
Speaker 1: ask this because you were on the beat when they
46:45
Speaker 1: won the national championship twenty years.
46:48
Speaker 2: Ago you were around the.
46:49
Speaker 1: Program you got to Know augie as well AS i,
46:53
Speaker 1: did Or Keith morland or any of the rest of
46:55
Speaker 1: us who are around the team on a day by day, basis.
47:00
Speaker 2: And schloss Are augie was when he was with.
47:03
Speaker 1: US uh And schloss a lot, different uh in terms
47:09
Speaker 1: of their day to day approach of. Things that, SAID i, KNOW,
47:13
Speaker 1: Uh schloss has a lot of admiration and respect uh
47:18
Speaker 1: for the legacy That oggie had and refers to him quite.
47:21
Speaker 1: Often and there are some SIMILARITIES i think with how
47:25
Speaker 1: they connect with their, guys which is why we used
47:28
Speaker 1: to Hear aggie's guys say that those five guys you talked,
47:31
Speaker 1: about how they How aggie connected to, them just in
47:35
Speaker 1: the same way that you Know Luke harrison Or Rylan
47:37
Speaker 1: galvan or any of these other guys are connecting in
47:40
Speaker 1: the here and?
47:40
Speaker 2: Now which slats you THINK i?
47:43
Speaker 8: DO i?
47:44
Speaker 3: Do AND i Think augie was more hard nos schlosk
47:48
Speaker 3: is after those. Guys but H i've been to practices
47:51
Speaker 3: And aggie AND i had an. Understanding. Uh BUT, uh you,
47:55
Speaker 3: know UNLESS i talked to him, beforehand if he wasn't
48:00
Speaker 3: allow me to be in those, practices because there are
48:03
Speaker 3: times WHEN i was the only reporter And i'm sitting
48:06
Speaker 3: in the dugout with guys in it that were nineteen
48:09
Speaker 3: and twenty years old and ended up in the major.
48:11
Speaker 3: LEAGUES i, Mean TAYLOR. T gardens Were, STUBBS Jp, howell
48:16
Speaker 3: guys of that Of Sam. Lekuro And i've been to
48:19
Speaker 3: practices Where aggie cussed them black and blue and threw
48:23
Speaker 3: them out of practice, yep and then and made them stealing.
48:26
Speaker 5: It and then he came and, said by me in
48:28
Speaker 5: the dugout and go. There they're just not they're not hearing, me,
48:31
Speaker 5: said they're not hearing.
48:32
Speaker 3: Me and so when you have that kind of trust
48:35
Speaker 3: with a coach and he's allowing you a peek behind
48:38
Speaker 3: the curtain with an, understanding, uh this is how it's gonna.
48:42
Speaker 5: Be and then you see these. Guys and this is
48:45
Speaker 5: the thing that's amazing about, It, Craig i'm. Major that's
48:47
Speaker 5: we are so. Old we are so.
48:49
Speaker 3: OLD i call you gray for a, reason and you
48:55
Speaker 3: weren't great WHEN i first started calling you great. Now
48:59
Speaker 3: But i'm gonna tell, you you see these guys, now
49:02
Speaker 3: they're forty and forty, two and they got, kids and
49:06
Speaker 3: they've got some gray, now and they still have that
49:10
Speaker 3: boyish love for the, game and they still talk so
49:13
Speaker 3: reverently About augie and the life. Lessons Houston street guys like,
49:18
Speaker 3: that the life lessons that he talked.
49:20
Speaker 5: Them and for, Me it's cool to see.
49:23
Speaker 3: Him go from boys to men and still maintain that
49:26
Speaker 3: love and that loyalty for someone who's so impacted their
49:31
Speaker 3: lives as baseball players and then actually as young. Men
49:35
Speaker 3: AND i see the same thing happening with these. Guys
49:38
Speaker 3: they Love, schlasnagel AND i know winning is a panaceas
49:43
Speaker 3: so if they were eleven and twenty eleven and, fifteen
49:46
Speaker 3: maybe things aren't so. Rosy but, man it's all falling into,
49:50
Speaker 3: place and what he's Preaching craig is getting through to
49:54
Speaker 3: these guys and it's showing on the.
49:55
Speaker 2: Field, yeah no doubt about. It is it also your?

Speaker 1: path that they're having And texas is winning and wins

54:48
Speaker 5: Barron those were the three guys THAT i really believed
54:52

Speaker 1: Coach Steve. Sarkisian this is from The Touchdown club Of
58:37
Speaker 1: houston's annual luncheon that he appears at every.
58:40
Speaker 2: Year and here's some more, questions SOME q AND a for.
58:43
Speaker 5: Sorry see the first what do you think your first?
58:46
Speaker 9: Pitch?
58:47
Speaker 7: Right it was a little, disappointed you, know it was
58:50
Speaker 7: more of a of a two strike.
58:52
Speaker 6: Pitch you, KNOW i had to kind of paint the
58:54
Speaker 6: black a little, bit had a little movement on.
58:56
Speaker 7: IT i was throwing maybe a little harder and warm.
58:59
Speaker 6: Up BUT i got up there And jonah was catching for,
59:03
Speaker 6: me AND i knew he had a little bit of
59:04
Speaker 6: a hamstring, issue and SO i didn't really want to
59:07
Speaker 6: have to make him jump out of his.
59:08
Speaker 7: Stance so it's try to lay it in there and
59:10
Speaker 7: make sure it was a. Strike so BUT i Guess
59:13
Speaker 7: i'll take it. Now the real, Question i'm just.
59:15
Speaker 5: Kidding i'm not a serious.
59:17
Speaker 7: Now he kind of ended the discourse this weekend and
59:19
Speaker 7: out Of quinn in his slide and kind of the
59:21
Speaker 7: conversation about whether Or i'm sure come back to schooler kind.
59:24
Speaker 5: Of chase that.
59:25
Speaker 2: Head, YEAH i find.
59:27
Speaker 6: It first of, ALL i feel For, quinn you, KNOW
59:29
Speaker 6: i think he's A quinn was a great player for.
59:32
Speaker 6: US i think about a lot of the people who
59:34
Speaker 6: have come into this program over the last four years
59:38
Speaker 6: that have impacted the growth and the trajectory of our,
59:41
Speaker 6: program and and he's he's right there near.
59:44
Speaker 7: The, top if not at the, top of the impact
59:46
Speaker 7: that he's, had not only on the, field but off the.
59:49
Speaker 6: Field his ability to help recruit other players to come
59:53
Speaker 6: be part of our, program you.
59:56
Speaker 7: KNOW i think he.
59:56
Speaker 6: Was he was one of the first, guys you, know
59:59
Speaker 6: through all this talk of about collective and all the
1:00:01
Speaker 6: things that were going on in the world Of, nil
1:00:04
Speaker 6: he never took money from our. Collective you, know all
1:00:06
Speaker 6: of all of what he did Through nil was his true,
1:00:09
Speaker 6: name image and likeness right the intent of the. Rule
1:00:12
Speaker 6: so on that, Front i'm very grateful for what he
1:00:15
Speaker 6: did for our. PROGRAM i think all of us included
1:00:19
Speaker 6: wish he would have gotten drafted. Higher but at the
1:00:21
Speaker 6: end of the, day IF i could have picked us
1:00:23
Speaker 6: place THAT i think is a great fit for.
1:00:25
Speaker 7: HIM i Think miami is a great.
1:00:26
Speaker 6: Fit you, know, systematically what coach McDaniel does, is if
1:00:31
Speaker 6: not exactly the, same very similar to what we. Do
1:00:33
Speaker 6: so there's gonna be a level of comfort for him
1:00:36
Speaker 6: of you, know style of. Play he got some great.
1:00:38
Speaker 6: Weapons on the. Outside it's a warm weather. Place so
1:00:42
Speaker 6: in the, END i think it's a good fit for.
1:00:44
Speaker 6: Him now it's about taking taking advantage of the opportunity.
1:00:48
Speaker 7: You know that presents.
1:00:49
Speaker 6: Itself BUT i also think it's ironic and that so
1:00:52
Speaker 6: many things are written and talked about the players from
1:00:56
Speaker 6: a negative, standpoint that transfer schools or day in school
1:01:00
Speaker 6: to take.
1:01:01
Speaker 7: More, money like it's a. Negative but all of a,
1:01:03
Speaker 7: sudden here's a.
1:01:04
Speaker 6: Guy that, SAID i wanted to leave a legacy At
1:01:05
Speaker 6: texas AND i wanted to go play in THE, Nfl
1:01:07
Speaker 6: and now they're knocking it for not taking the money in.
1:01:09
Speaker 6: College so you, KNOW i don't know which side of
1:01:12
Speaker 6: the fence everybody sits on on, That but in the,
1:01:14
Speaker 6: END i think it just speaks to the character of,
1:01:16
Speaker 6: him of what he believed in and what he stood.
1:01:19
Speaker 6: For and nobody wanted to win a national championship much
1:01:23
Speaker 6: or more Than quinn on our team the last couple of.
1:01:25
Speaker 6: Years AND i don't think anybody felt it more than
1:01:28
Speaker 6: he did when we didn't Beat Ohio, state you, know
1:01:30
Speaker 6: obviously with his track record of going to school. There
1:01:32
Speaker 6: so in the, end it wasn't about going to another.
1:01:35
Speaker 6: School it's about the, next you, know the next part
1:01:38
Speaker 6: of the journey in his career and in his, life
1:01:40
Speaker 6: and that was going to THE. Nfl, so LIKE i,
1:01:43
Speaker 6: said he's got a good opportunity in front of. Him
1:01:45
Speaker 6: now it's time to go make the most of.
1:01:47
Speaker 9: It, steve what would you say in your boots and
1:01:51
Speaker 9: gentlemen became out of his brain and failed their. Boos concernment.
1:01:58
Speaker 6: The thing that really he fires me up about this,
1:02:01
Speaker 6: team you. Know AND i look back AND i was
1:02:04
Speaker 6: thinking about this AS i was driving over this. Morning
1:02:08
Speaker 6: if you remember that class three years, ago The Anthony,
1:02:12
Speaker 6: hill The Derek, williams The Manny, mohammad's the arch and
1:02:18
Speaker 6: we talked about the championship pedigree of that. CLASS a
1:02:22
Speaker 6: lot of those guys had either one state, championships competed
1:02:26
Speaker 6: for state. Championships now that they're like juniors in our,
1:02:31
Speaker 6: program you can feel this sense of these guys winning
1:02:37
Speaker 6: is the most.
1:02:37
Speaker 7: Important thing in THEIR.
1:02:38
Speaker 6: Dna you, Know Michael taff obviously has that as part
1:02:41
Speaker 6: of HIS, Dna Trey wisner his time At DeSoto, Leonga
1:02:45
Speaker 6: lafou At, Kahuku like it's in THEIR dna and you
1:02:49
Speaker 6: can feel it on our practice. Field you can feel
1:02:51
Speaker 6: it the way these guys talk to one. Another it's
1:02:55
Speaker 6: not just about having a good. Day it's not just
1:02:58
Speaker 6: about having a you, know a good rep or a
1:03:02
Speaker 6: good period in. Practice it's about seeing the forest through the,
1:03:07
Speaker 6: trees like we're doing this so that we can go do,
1:03:10
Speaker 6: This like they understand the process that they're in right
1:03:13
Speaker 6: now to try to go achieve what they want to.
1:03:15
Speaker 6: Achieve and that has probably been the biggest shift that
1:03:20
Speaker 6: this team has provided. Us you, know where the last
1:03:24
Speaker 6: couple of teams they were growing through a coaching change
1:03:27
Speaker 6: five and, seven eight and, five it was like let's get.
1:03:30
Speaker 6: There these guys, are i, think thinking beyond let's get.
1:03:33
Speaker 6: There it's, like let's go win because this is what
1:03:35
Speaker 6: we're used to. Doing and so that's really exciting to,
1:03:39
Speaker 6: me like that that we have a hungry team that
1:03:40
Speaker 6: has a little bit different mentality about them in their.
1:03:44
Speaker 7: APPROACH i.
1:03:47
Speaker 6: DON'T i don't know IF i have necessarily concerns right
1:03:50
Speaker 6: now about our. Team you, KNOW i know we have
1:03:52
Speaker 6: areas that we need to continue to improve, upon and.
1:03:56
Speaker 6: DON'T i wouldn't say there's an area in our team
1:03:57
Speaker 6: where we're just. Perfect you, know there's, yeah.
1:04:00
Speaker 7: Everybody we all got work to, do you. Know but
1:04:04
Speaker 7: but at the end of the, day it's it's it's.
1:04:08
Speaker 6: Combining this this group of LIKE i said that juniors
1:04:12
Speaker 6: and there's a few seniors in, there with this influx
1:04:15
Speaker 6: of a, young talented group of guys that just came,
1:04:17
Speaker 6: in and then you, know integrating the transfers into this
1:04:23
Speaker 6: mix that we get the right the right, flow not
1:04:27
Speaker 6: just in the locker, room but, really you, know we
1:04:30
Speaker 6: like to play a lot of, players you, Know and
1:04:32
Speaker 6: how many times DID i come up to you guys post,
1:04:34
Speaker 6: game especially early in the, season say, hey we played
1:04:37
Speaker 6: forty two guys on defense in the first, half, right
1:04:40
Speaker 6: and and we think there's a lot of value in doing. That,
1:04:43
Speaker 6: now players have to earn those opportunities to do. That
1:04:47
Speaker 6: but but surely that's when we're at our. Best because,
1:04:50
Speaker 6: AGAIN i think big, PICTURE i think the long, road
1:04:53
Speaker 6: the long, game and when you start talking fifteen, sixteen seventeen,
1:04:57
Speaker 6: games you're gonna need a lot Of you're gonna need
1:04:59
Speaker 6: a lot of, bodies and we're gonna have to trust
1:05:01
Speaker 6: these these guys early in the season to go do.
1:05:04
Speaker 6: That but, again they have to earn our trust to
1:05:07
Speaker 6: put them out there.
1:05:08
Speaker 1: To go do.
1:05:08
Speaker 7: IT i just got back in the, draft follow back
1:05:11
Speaker 7: you live.
1:05:12
Speaker 9: THERE i thought that the best moment when you got drafted.
1:05:15
Speaker 5: By the past so cool more.
1:05:17
Speaker 9: Than two hundred thousand. People can you just talk a
1:05:20
Speaker 9: little bit about what you thought of that moment and
1:05:23
Speaker 9: what that just kind of meant to your?
1:05:25
Speaker 7: Program, YEAH i, can't, uh.
1:05:30
Speaker 6: One of the best draft Moments i've ever, seen you,
1:05:32

Speaker 6: know we've all seen the green room moments and The
1:05:46
Speaker 6: Roger goodell moments on the on the on the. Stage
1:05:49
Speaker 6: BUT i think what THE nfl has done in moving
1:05:53

1:07:42
Speaker 6: to move forward, summer fall, camp early in the season
1:07:46
Speaker 6: is going to be continuity and. Consistency you, know we
1:07:50

1:07:55
Speaker 6: few years because of so many familiar. Faces uh that, now,
1:08:00
Speaker 6: well we have to make sure that we almost force
1:08:03
Speaker 6: feed consistency and continuity amongst that. Group and that starts with, trust,
1:08:08
Speaker 6: right trust and, calls trust and, footwork trusting the guy

1:08:18

1:08:20
Speaker 6: which is understandable in spring. Practice LIKE i, said you,
1:08:23

1:08:25
Speaker 6: It but we're going to have to continue to find
1:08:27
Speaker 6: that growth throughout the summer and into fall camp because
1:08:30
Speaker 6: it's not going to be about talent with that. Group
1:08:33
Speaker 6: it's going to be about the level of consistency that
1:08:35
Speaker 6: they play with individually and, collectively and that's going to
1:08:38
Speaker 6: be about the continuity that they play with as a
1:08:42

Speaker 1: craig wadejoined by The Producer. Cameron parker what a bang.
1:17:59
Speaker 1: BANG series, i know obviously. The results the results are
1:18:05
Speaker 1: going to mean a lot more to THE long wrn
1:18:07
Speaker 1: fans Than THE texas A and, m fans Merely because
1:18:11
Speaker 1: texas won all. Three GAMES but i mean they were
1:18:13
Speaker 1: three real as we like, to, say. Bangers quirkers, you
1:18:17
Speaker 1: know all three were one. Run games, it, IS however
1:18:20
Speaker 1: i think noteworthy that in games decided by two or
1:18:26
Speaker 1: fewer runs, This season texas is twelve, and four and
1:18:32
Speaker 1: in games decided by, ONE run i.
1:18:36
Speaker 2: Believe they're nine.
1:18:37
Speaker 1: And three i'll double check that, number there, but anyway
1:18:41
Speaker 1: It's been they've been really good in one run and
1:18:44
Speaker 1: two run in close. Ball games and, Quite FRANKLY texas
1:18:48
Speaker 1: A and m is better than twenty four. To nineteen
1:18:49
Speaker 1: we know about the massive slump they went through and
1:18:52
Speaker 1: they were one to nine IN, the sec and then
1:18:54
Speaker 1: they turned, it around winning seven of eight conference games
1:18:57
Speaker 1: and ten out of eleven Going, into AUSTIN and i
1:18:59
Speaker 1: know is a setback. For THEM and i, also know
1:19:03
Speaker 1: studying the tournament PROJECTIONS as i do and hearing it
1:19:06
Speaker 1: awful lot that if we're being, completely honest they're back on. The,
1:19:10
Speaker 1: BUBBLE now i still think they're on the plus side of.
1:19:13
Speaker 1: The bubble THE forty rpi is flirting toward the back,
1:19:16
Speaker 1: end of, you KNOW being. Rpi friendly but they have
1:19:22
Speaker 1: a massive Series with TEXAS with lsu this Week In.
1:19:26
Speaker 1: COLLEGE station i think it's safe to say they need
1:19:29
Speaker 1: to win. The series i'm not saying they have, to
1:19:30
Speaker 1: sweep but it wouldn't help them if they were to lose.
1:19:34
Speaker 1: THAT Series ls, YOU meanwhile i was coming off taking
1:19:36
Speaker 1: two out of three at Home. Against tennessee were you
1:19:39
Speaker 1: up Late enough friday night to see the crazy insane
1:19:45
Speaker 1: ending Of THE tennessee?
1:19:46
Speaker 2: LSU game i?
1:19:47
Speaker 1: Deliver, It, Actually okay first, of All, remember Friday The
1:19:51
Speaker 1: TEXAS texas A and m game started an hour and seven,
1:19:54
Speaker 1: minutes late so that the first pitch of that game
1:19:59
Speaker 1: was right around. EIGHT twelve i think it was something,
1:20:02
Speaker 1: Like that and so it ended well after eleven o'clock
1:20:08
Speaker 1: and by THE time i. Got home it was, after
1:20:10
Speaker 1: MIDNIGHT but i Knew THE tennessee lsu game was still
1:20:14
Speaker 1: going on because it was supposed to start at the
1:20:16
Speaker 1: same Time, as TEXAS and i knew that they'd been
1:20:19
Speaker 1: delayed by more than. TWO hours i think it was
1:20:21
Speaker 1: two hours and. Twenty MINUTES so i got home and
1:20:25
Speaker 1: IT was i think one of the eighth inning by
1:20:27
Speaker 1: THE time i got to, the HOUSE and i turn,
1:20:29
Speaker 1: it On and tennessee looks to be an, absolute controller
1:20:32
Speaker 1: up three, to nothing and they're pitching is JUST keeping lsu,
1:20:35
Speaker 1: at bay and it's still three to nothing going to
1:20:39
Speaker 1: the bottom of the, ninth inning, All right so it's
1:20:43
Speaker 1: three nothing going to the bottom of. The night by
1:20:45
Speaker 1: now it's after one o'clock in, the morning and because
1:20:50
Speaker 1: of all the rain delays and the time extrapolates out
1:20:53
Speaker 1: and pitching changes and so on and so.
1:20:54
Speaker 2: Forth reviews so first.
1:20:57
Speaker 1: Batter UP for lsu hits a sharp ground ball, to
1:21:00
Speaker 1: third and the third baseman fields it right over on
1:21:05
Speaker 1: right about, the line and he has to make probably
1:21:08
Speaker 1: the longest throw across the diamond in fair territory to get.
1:21:13
Speaker 1: Him out so he, guns it and he guns it
1:21:15
Speaker 1: right over the head of the, first basement so it's a.
1:21:18
Speaker 1: Wild throw next batter comes up and hits a ground
1:21:21
Speaker 1: ball to, him again this one and more, routine one
1:21:24
Speaker 1: and he just flap bobbled it and. Booted it so
1:21:27
Speaker 1: now he had two on and it got to and
1:21:31
Speaker 1: there might have been an out in, between that and
1:21:33
Speaker 1: then there was a. Second Album so tennessee is still
1:21:37
Speaker 1: one out away from winning. This thing three, to nothing
1:21:39
Speaker 1: and they get a pinch hit single to cut it
1:21:43
Speaker 1: to three, to one and they get, A double, i
1:21:47
Speaker 1: think to get another, run in and it's three, to

Speaker 6: and and the time that when he stepped into that room,
1:27:14
Speaker 6: to think, you know here's a guy who didn't play

1:27:27
Speaker 6: those guys provided a young player in our program and
1:27:30
Speaker 6: to watch him grow throughout. His time and now he's
1:27:33
Speaker 6: got a great opportunity With. THE cowboys i think he's
1:27:36
Speaker 6: gonna go do some really. Cool things AND so i
1:27:39
Speaker 6: love the, fact that, you know a lot has been
1:27:41
Speaker 6: made in our time here about how well We've recruited
1:27:45
Speaker 6: Dallas In, south dallas but, in reality when you think
1:27:48
Speaker 6: about some Of these houston players that we've recruited and
1:27:51
Speaker 6: the opportunities that are getting now to play In The National,
1:27:53
Speaker 6: FOOTBALL league i think is really good. For us you
1:27:56
Speaker 6: know that that we can come into this city and into,
1:27:58
Speaker 6: this area recruit really, good players, develop players and watch
1:28:02
Speaker 6: them go on to help fulfill. Their dreams relatives and
1:28:06
Speaker 6: argentications now springing over how impressed were you living freshman
1:28:11
Speaker 6: that you brought in at a? Midterm uh and then
1:28:14
Speaker 6: also when you live in the press of class, h
1:28:18
Speaker 6: characters the munity characteristics about that which is as. A.
1:28:21
Speaker 7: Whole, yeah yeah you know, this group you know when
1:28:28
Speaker 7: you when you get into.
1:28:29
Speaker 6: Winter conditioning the way we had adjusted it, a little
1:28:31
Speaker 6: they had a little more Time With coach beckton before
1:28:34
Speaker 6: our vets got going again because we had played, SO
1:28:36
Speaker 6: late i probably got a little better chance to see them.
1:28:39
Speaker 6: Up close and the first thing that jumped out to, me,
1:28:43
Speaker 6: was okay we we we we hit the, right profiles meaning,
1:28:48
Speaker 6: you know just about at every position we have a
1:28:50
Speaker 6: we have a pretty good profile that we're trying to
1:28:52
Speaker 6: fit in in. A box and it's a little bit
1:28:54
Speaker 6: OF an, nfl mentality but the idea of, arm length,
1:28:58
Speaker 6: hand size height at. Certain positions and you know that
1:29:00
Speaker 6: the measurables. That matter then you watch you look at,
1:29:03
Speaker 6: that group it's a really good. Looking group and then
1:29:07
Speaker 6: and then you could see certain players players at certain.
1:29:11
Speaker 7: Kind of levels.
1:29:12
Speaker 6: Of development and there's nothing wrong with, that, too right
1:29:15
Speaker 6: everybody comes out at a.
1:29:16
Speaker 2: Different.
1:29:16
Speaker 6: Stage uh the One thing i'd say about this group
1:29:19
Speaker 6: is a Very hungry you know that they're, they're competitive. They're,
1:29:22
Speaker 6: hungry uh and they're all really high. Character kids, like
1:29:25
Speaker 6: like we continue to recruit kids with really high character
1:29:30
Speaker 6: to help build into that culture that we have going on.
1:29:33
Speaker 6: Right now how many of them really play play this
1:29:37
Speaker 6: fall remains to be seen and. Really CONTRIBUTE but i
1:29:41
Speaker 6: know a lot of them are knocking on a lot,
1:29:42
Speaker 6: of doors whether it's, on offense defense or on. Special
1:29:45
Speaker 6: teams and and a few of them have really stood
1:29:48
Speaker 6: out to where, it's like we're going have a hard
1:29:50
Speaker 6: time keeping.
1:29:51
Speaker 7: This guy off.
1:29:52
Speaker 6: The field, you know he's he's making it so evident
1:29:55
Speaker 6: that we're gonna have to play. This, guy uh and
1:29:58
Speaker 6: other guys are are you can see the growth and, we're,
1:30:00
Speaker 6: like man what's this guy gonna?
1:30:02
Speaker 5: Look Like.
1:30:02
Speaker 6: In august what might this guy look Like? In october
1:30:06
Speaker 6: what might this guy look Like? In, January right and
1:30:09
Speaker 6: so we're trying not to cast judgment on these, guys
1:30:13
Speaker 6: now but, just hey he's, getting better, he's improving and
1:30:16
Speaker 6: let's just keep pushing him and see where they can.
1:30:18
Speaker 7: Finish up so let's sell of the.
1:30:21
Speaker 5: HARTS guy i remember the spring ainst, that spot and
1:30:23
Speaker 5: he used.
1:30:23
Speaker 3: TO grow i mean it was ons of how Much
1:30:25
Speaker 3: hartwork in puts in behind the scenes that we don't get.
1:30:28
Speaker 6: The, sea yeah, YOU know i thought this was a
1:30:30
Speaker 6: really good spring For arch in that, you know he's
1:30:34
Speaker 6: in year three in our system and he's played in.
1:30:36
Speaker 6: Real games he's played where he's had to been the
1:30:39
Speaker 6: guy preparing as a game plan that was built. For
1:30:43
Speaker 6: him he's had to prepare as a backup to know
1:30:46
Speaker 6: and then be ready if his, numbers called and a
1:30:49
Speaker 6: lot of veteran players around him in that time the last.
1:30:53
Speaker 6: Two years in this spring obviously due to an attrition guys,
1:30:58
Speaker 6: moving on due to a, couple inches he's really had
1:31:02
Speaker 6: to lead with the knowledge base that he gained the last.
1:31:06
Speaker 6: Two years you know that when we were running a
1:31:10
Speaker 6: play and not, every play it might. Be perfect the
1:31:12
Speaker 6: guy might run the wrong route or not not run
1:31:14
Speaker 6: a route at the, right depth or an offensive line
1:31:17
Speaker 6: not not make the right line call to pick up.
1:31:19
Speaker 6: A pressure and so it really forced him to have
1:31:23
Speaker 6: to have those offline conversations when his series was done
1:31:28
Speaker 6: to help lead younger players like those older players helped
1:31:32
Speaker 6: lead him when when he was a. Young PLAYER so
1:31:35
Speaker 6: i thought it was it was great. For him now
1:31:38
Speaker 6: we all see the, physical ability we all see the
1:31:41
Speaker 6: Connection With. Ryan wingo it, happened again You know saturday
1:31:44
Speaker 6: on a big. Touchdown pass we know the rapport that
1:31:46
Speaker 6: he Has With, DeAndre Moore, cedric baxter.
1:31:49
Speaker 1: A lot of.
1:31:49
Speaker 6: Those guys but in, THE end i think this time
1:31:54
Speaker 6: that he spent with a lot of those younger players
1:31:57
Speaker 6: is going to serve very valuable not for us just
1:31:59
Speaker 6: as us as, a team but for him in the
1:32:02
Speaker 6: fall when those younger guys numbers. Are called that he's
1:32:05
Speaker 6: got some banked reps with those guys. This SPRING so
1:32:08
Speaker 6: i thought that part was really valuable. For him, thank god,
1:32:15
Speaker 6: You guys why don't you guys go? Do, something man get.

Speaker 1: and i guess there's five major polls that. Are recular
1:36:54
Speaker 1: college baseball has more poles than any other any.
1:36:57
Speaker 2: OTHER sport i don't know why, that is but.
1:36:59
Speaker 1: It is there are more college baseball polls than in
1:37:04
Speaker 1: any other. Major, sport well simple one.
1:37:09
Speaker 2: Are here.
1:37:12
Speaker 1: Texas last week was number ONE in D, one baseball
1:37:15
Speaker 1: number one By The National Collegiate Baseball, writers association number
1:37:18
Speaker 1: One In, perfect game number one IN THE Espn Usa today,
1:37:22
Speaker 1: coaches poll and number One In. Baseball America and i've
1:37:27
Speaker 1: seen let's see for three of, the poll there's actually
1:37:31
Speaker 1: another one on three does one, as well and they're
1:37:33
Speaker 1: number one in that, As well and so they're number
1:37:38
Speaker 1: one in all of those polls again. This week what
1:37:41
Speaker 1: is interesting is that that the sparing most of the
1:37:43
Speaker 1: other polls had some shake Up. Because texas it was
1:37:47
Speaker 1: written down pretty Well By kendall RODGERS at D one
1:37:50
Speaker 1: Baseball that texas was the only school out of the
1:37:55
Speaker 1: top six not to lose a conference series. This weekend
1:38:00
Speaker 1: so as a result, OF that lsu moved up by
1:38:03
Speaker 1: virtue of the Winner. For Tennessee so texas was definitely
1:38:08
Speaker 1: going to be a unanim's. Number one they're number one IN.
1:38:10
Speaker 1: The rpi that might or might not be effected by
1:38:13
Speaker 1: the fact They're Playing prairie, view tomorrow who's two hundred
1:38:17
Speaker 1: and ninety nine IN.
1:38:17
Speaker 2: The rpi but even if they do take that bump off,
1:38:20
Speaker 2: of that they wouldn't.
1:38:21
Speaker 1: Drop far and they've got three games Coming, at arkansas
1:38:24
Speaker 1: who is currently the NUMBER five rpi team in.
1:38:27
Speaker 2: The country and, you said what's the big deal with
1:38:29
Speaker 2: regard TO.
1:38:29
Speaker 1: The rpi it is a determinate tool BY The Ncaa
1:38:37
Speaker 1: Tournament Baseball. Selection, committee obviously the longer it's going to
1:38:40
Speaker 1: be IN The nacaa tournament and it's looking more and
1:38:44
Speaker 1: more likely they're going to be a national seat of,
1:38:45
Speaker 1: top eight which means if, you win you host, the
1:38:47
Speaker 1: regional you win that you host. Super regional, right now
1:38:50
Speaker 1: they're in the, DRIVER'S seat i, would say to be
1:38:52
Speaker 1: the number one overall. National seat and for those of you, who,
1:38:55
Speaker 1: say well what's the biggest difference if you're in number
1:38:57
Speaker 1: one or, number seven you're still the, National seed you're
1:39:00
Speaker 1: still at home for the first two weekends before you
1:39:04
Speaker 1: would QUALIFY.
1:39:05
Speaker 2: For roma all of that is.
1:39:06
Speaker 1: Very true what is also true is the higher, you
1:39:10
Speaker 1: are higher seed, you are the more manageable regional and
1:39:15
Speaker 1: super regional that you would have that you would, be
1:39:18
Speaker 1: hosting and a less, difficult one say if you were
1:39:21
Speaker 1: the eight versus the nine or the seven versus, the
1:39:24
Speaker 1: ten and you know that kind, of thing because they
1:39:26
Speaker 1: would match up with the number. Sixteen Overall c so
1:39:31
Speaker 1: there is some importance in all, of THAT and i
1:39:35
Speaker 1: think it's important to keep in mind where the long
1:39:38
Speaker 1: words are on. This Deal as, cameron mentioned they're up
1:39:40
Speaker 1: five games ON both Lsu and arkansas with nine games
1:39:44
Speaker 1: to go in the. Regular season now in the, conference
1:39:51
Speaker 1: regularly and they have two non conference games tomorrow Night
1:39:53
Speaker 1: Against prairie view and The following Tuesday, against, lamar who by,
1:39:55
Speaker 1: the way is won thirty six. Ball games they're Pretty,
1:39:57
Speaker 1: good LAMAR and i think they're only like place In
1:40:00
Speaker 1: the southland, right now but good, ball club and they'll
1:40:05
Speaker 1: have them a week.
1:40:06
Speaker 2: From tomorrow but here's.
1:40:08
Speaker 1: The thing the, magic number if, You Will Major league
1:40:12
Speaker 1: baseball were used to just looking at the magic number
1:40:14
Speaker 1: is very. Very simple you subtract the number of games
1:40:19
Speaker 1: that you have the lead on from the remaining amount of.
1:40:22
Speaker 2: Games on, your schedule and you have the.
1:40:24
Speaker 1: Magic number so in, this Case, for texas the magic number,
1:40:27
Speaker 1: would APPEAR and i do stress the word appear appear
1:40:30
Speaker 1: to be four because they're up five with nine. To,
1:40:33
Speaker 1: play however and of course they can reduce it in
1:40:37
Speaker 1: the head to Head, with arkansas BUT if, lsu continues
1:40:41
Speaker 1: when it could extrapolate a little. Further out but it
1:40:44
Speaker 1: is important to Note obviously texas won the regular season SERIES,
1:40:48
Speaker 1: from lsu so if the two, are tied it'd Be
1:40:50
Speaker 1: like Texas And south carolina. Women's basketball, they tied and
1:40:55
Speaker 1: of course they split two regular, season meetings and they
1:40:58
Speaker 1: have flip a coin to see it was the one
1:40:59
Speaker 1: scene the t they would not have to flip a
1:41:01
Speaker 1: coin in this Case because texas won the regular season SERIES.
1:41:04
Speaker 1: From lsu so you could say the magic number is
1:41:08
Speaker 1: four to assure yourself of at least a share of
1:41:13
Speaker 1: the title off. Of that so it's important to keep that.
1:41:16
Speaker 1: In mind And As cedric GOLDEN and i were, talking
1:41:20
Speaker 1: About As keith morland mentioned, last WEEK and i do
1:41:23
Speaker 1: believe it to be true and the other people that
1:41:24
Speaker 1: have READ with sec far, and AWAY and i do
1:41:28
Speaker 1: mean far. And away if you look AT the, rpi
1:41:29
Speaker 1: numbers far and away the best baseball conference in. The
1:41:32
Speaker 1: country they occupy the top five spots IN. The rpi
1:41:37
Speaker 1: it's Like the beatles in that one Week in april
1:41:40
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four where they had the top five songs
1:41:44
Speaker 1: in the in the. Top, forty yeah in the in
1:41:48
Speaker 1: the top forty. Hit list that's never been done before. Or,
1:41:51
Speaker 1: since WELL the sec has the top five spots in IN,
1:41:58
Speaker 1: the rpi so it really helps in. That, respect Then
1:42:02
Speaker 1: Like jim, slosnagel SAYS, the sec it takes care, of
1:42:05
Speaker 1: itself meaning if you're winning against REAL good, rpi teams
1:42:08
Speaker 1: you're going. To rise and even if, you lose you're
1:42:10
Speaker 1: not going to, drop far as evidence by The FACT
1:42:13
Speaker 1: texas A and m only.
1:42:15
Speaker 2: Dropped a couple.
1:42:16
Speaker 1: Of spots, IN fact i think it was only one
1:42:19
Speaker 1: spot from thirty nine to forty by losing all three
1:42:23
Speaker 1: Games to texas over.
1:42:23
Speaker 2: The weekend so those things all help For.
1:42:28
Speaker 1: The longhorns For, the aggies it's going to bet they're
1:42:31
Speaker 1: eight and thirteen in conference. PLAY now a losing record in,
1:42:35
Speaker 1: the conference in the best conference in the country is
1:42:37

Speaker 1: a way to win those. Two series want, to sweep
1:43:15
Speaker 1: but if they could win those two series and then
1:43:17
