• 0:10
  Speaker 1: routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: day after day. It's like banking with P and C Bank.

• 0:21
  Speaker 1: decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is

• 0:32

  Speaker 1: the PNC Financial Service Group, Inc. P and C Bank
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: National Association Member fdict me.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Let me ask you this. As far as the conferences,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: we see some things that make absolutely no sense. When
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: conferences like schools on the West Coast in the Big
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: East and Big ten has thirteen schools getting paid. Yeah,
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: but I say that to say, it's all everything is
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: derived around football and the conferences is just going crazy.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: No, they ain't they going money business.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: So I say that to say, is there ever any
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: way possible that you foresee Jackson State being in a
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: power conference at some point, Tom.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: I would like to see that when we're ready. We
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: got to be ready now when you start jumping conferences,
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: and I don't want to just jump to the baby conference.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: If I'm gonna jump, let's bunge a jump. Let's do
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: the dog on thing. Okay, So I gotta get the traviss.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: I got to get Travis's there too, Okay, up front
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: on both sides, offensive defensive line with some depth, because
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: that's how the big boys will get you.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: They can't mess with you in a skill position. Because
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: we had a quarterback that could spend it. We got
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: receivers that could go, dbs that could go, linebackers that
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: could bang and cover. Where they get you.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Is right here in the trenches.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: Because now when they rotate, they rotate, and you they
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: got eight heat seeking missiles coming, and you may have four,
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: so soon later you're gonna wear down. So you got
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: to beef that up if you want to compete with
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: the big boys.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: But you you would like that open, I won't that.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, I want what conference would you want to
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: be in?
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: I know it don't matter.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: Somebody a conference that is gonna make sure that we
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: don't have a struggle no more, because everything is a struggle.
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: Everything is not enough, everything is less than. Everything is
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: like thereof it's gonna be a conference that can put
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: the whole school on that.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: We straight.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: That SEC would be big. It could be big twelve two.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I mean facing that you see, it's like this the biggest.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: This is the biggest.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: And when you start talking like that, you gotta answer
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: with the house.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: So that was you. You got stadiums, you gotta have facilities.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Ain't nobody come on, man.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: I want to get to if I want to talk, it's
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: easy coming in here like this.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: You said playing the big boys.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: And I know one of the things you touched on
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: recently was the money games true and the the sperries
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: and that can you elaborate and explain to people because
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: when we see a let's pick a pick up a
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: random school.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Let's say you guys play Alabama.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: No, no, you just saw Alabama State play against UCLA, Right, okay,
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: big dog. I don't mind that, But tell the kids
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: what it is. I'm playing for money. I'm playing so
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: that we can pay for this, pay for this. Don't
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: act like you got a chance, cause you.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Know you don't.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: And then if you plan for money, do real business.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: So you getting five hundred thousand or five hundred and
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: ninety thousand whatever was reported what you called and check
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: and see how much a charter flight is two charters
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: because you got one for the team and one for
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: the band. Okay, going that California. Now you've got hotels
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: and all that, all those accommodations and probably two nights
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: of food and all that. That's probably six meals. That's
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: the be an upward of seven hundred, eight hundred to
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: a million, but you're getting five ninety.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: So you took a l and took a l going
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: and getting bet done.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Literally, So to me, if I put my kids in
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: a situation where there's no win and this is detrimental
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: to their health, I'm selling them out. We big on
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: that terminology in African Americans.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I'm putting you in a.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Situation where I, no, you're not gonna win, and I'm
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: not even getting handsomely compensated for it.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: That's the problem.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: But you have the same situation when another school goes
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: to Nebraska and play and they get one point four
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: one point seven. Another school goes to Penn State and
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: go to one of these other schools and they get
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: one point five or they get one point three, they
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: doing better business. To me, isn't the value not in
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: the school that could deep me? It's in the school
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: that I'm gonna beat because I really just play the
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: setup game just to beat you.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Right, If I'm paying you, they mean I need to
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: whoop you. Yeah. Right. When a boxer.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: Pays another boxer, they paying him.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: To what whoop it?
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: It may whether they ain't gonna pay you if his
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: purse is a twenty million and he paying you fifteen millions.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: But no, no, he's gonna pay you significant less because
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: he knows he gonna whoop you. Yeah.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: It don't make sense to me. Man, the numbers just
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: don't add up to me. That's a problem for me.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: So who negotiates that from the city. It has to be.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: It has to be the AD. AD doesn't. Yes, okay, because.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: I remember when I used to play basketball, and I
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: remember I used to see like copp and State. They
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: used to always the first fifteen games was on the road.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: They play Ohio State, Michigan.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: Beat down pockets fat though he start to seize it
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: off like and ten over twelve.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: So say the SEC has that one week every year,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: they're like, this is Lake City, Why are you playing
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: UCL Monroe.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: Because it's to pay a game for them, right, yeah,
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: but you got to make sure you get compensated enough.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: It's not worth my kids getting hurt. Then I gotta
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: go and talk them. You know what, we could do
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: it next week. I know what happened last week. I'm
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: sorry about that. We had to go get the bag.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: That's what the conversation should be. We had to go
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: get the bag. Guess what we could do it this week?
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: We could beat them.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: But I can't do it. I can't say I'm a kids.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Le's I'm saying, even when you get the bag, it's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: still coming back to the school, not necessarily the program.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: And you ain't even bringing enough back because you got
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: to make it back home, right And you didn't even
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: get enough to even make it back.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Home with a bag.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: And at some point a conversation has to have. It
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: has to be had about funding for these schools, especially
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: the state schools, because it's like why a lot of
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Ohio states and state school like Florida State's and state
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: school but why the black state schools never get any
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: money enrollment.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: You gotta talk about enrollment, and we got to quit
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: stop accepting whatever they give us. They can't just throw
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: no money at you. You say, oh, thank you, No man,
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: stop accepting the foolishness that to give you. If you
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: accept peanuts, they gonna thank you monkey sooner. Lady, you
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: got to stop dancing clapping for the little diames they're
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: thrown in your plate, and you got to demand we
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: deserve more. And this is why, and it's documented.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: So one of the things you talked about, obviously, is
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: the facilities.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: If we're gonna grow and win, win in comes, success
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: comes more money. I know, even like here, when you
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: came here, this room we were sitting there did not exist.
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: No, I didn't, right, So these are practice field did
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: not exists, Bill did not exist. None of this existed.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: And we're thankful that we have an ad that knows
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: how to fight. And we partner and we communicate and
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: we articulate to one another the needs and the thoughts
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: and the process of getting them. And then I got
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: partners right who helped.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: And one of the things that kind of got glossed
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: over was like even when this wasn't ready, Coase prop said, look,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: take half of whatever I'm making make it happen.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I had to finish, get it done.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: I had to get it done because I'm gonna I
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: get tired of telling people this, this, this, this, this,
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: assuming that you just maybe not do it. I'm gonna
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: only tell you to cut the grass three times, Okay.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: After that, I'm gonna do it. Okay, So I'm not
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: gonna sit up here and just cry, cry cry. I'm
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: gonna give you opportunity to do what you've been handsomely
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: paid to do your job.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: Then again, I'm gonna do it.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: So you've become the most recognizable person in the state
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: of Mississippi, and I don't even think it's closed, probably
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: by a landslide. So with that, I'm assuming it. There's
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: a lot on your plate that you probably necessarily didn't
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: sign up for, so we just had.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: I'm not gonna say that no, everything that that's on
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: my plate. I've been through the process at the youth level,
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: at the high school level, or at some level. God
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: is taking me through it in the dark. So when
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: you hit the lights.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: I was ready.
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: My graduates from my school being forced back drop drop
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: a mic drop back drop.
